Two low-priority review follow-ups from 8.15.0.

The chat list, the chat header and search results still rendered an avatar for a chat whose photo this account had seen removed, because they asked the newest-file lookup with no photo id, while the bytes route now answers 404 for that case. Each chat row now carries its recorded photo id; the rows with none are checked against the avatar history in one query per page, and a seen removal advertises no URL. A chat that was never recorded keeps the newest-file answer, and the existence check looks at the same file the bytes route serves first.

A viewer login without download rights has every file path blanked, so an archived file read "Will download on next backup". The placeholder now reads "Not available for this login", after the skip-reason lines, which still win for a row that was never downloaded.

What it deletes: nothing. What it overwrites: nothing. What it forgets: nothing; two read paths and one template string.

Each new test was checked against a mutant: the removal flag ignored, the removal query inverted, and the template branch removed.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Chat lists, search results, and chat details now reflect avatar removals instead of showing outdated profile photos.
    • Media placeholders now say “Not available for this login” when downloads aren’t available for the current login, rather than suggesting the file will download later.

… promising downloads to a no-download login

The chat list, the chat header and search results asked the newest-file
lookup for an avatar URL, so a chat whose photo this account saw removed
still rendered an image the bytes route now answers with 404. Each chat
row carries its recorded photo id; rows with none are checked against the
avatar history in one query per page, and a seen removal advertises no
URL. Never-recorded chats keep the newest-file answer.

A no-download login has every file_path blanked, so archived files read
"Will download on next backup". The placeholder now says the file is not
available for this login, after the skip-reason lines, which still win
for a row that was never downloaded.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Chat and search rows now include avatar photo IDs. The web endpoints suppress avatar URLs when avatar history records a removal. The media placeholder displays “Not available for this login” when no-download mode applies.

Changes

Avatar removal handling

Layer / File(s) Summary
Expose avatar photo IDs and removal history
src/db/adapter.py, tests/test_avatar_history.py
Chat and search rows include avatar photo IDs. The adapter identifies pairs whose newest avatar-history entry records a removal. Tests cover removal history and a 1,000-pair query.
Apply removal history to avatar URLs
src/web/main.py, tests/test_avatar_history.py, tests/test_web_routes.py
Chat list, single-chat, and search endpoints use removal history and recorded photo IDs when generating avatar URLs. Tests cover removals, recorded photos, chats without history, and lookup failure.

No-download media placeholder

Layer / File(s) Summary
Render the no-download placeholder
src/web/templates/index.html, tests/test_media_skip_reason.py
The pending-download placeholder displays “Not available for this login” for no-download media. Tests check the branch order and text.

Comment thread src/db/adapter.py Outdated
…hats

The removals query was an OR of AND pairs; SQLite refuses that shape at
about a thousand terms, and the viewer fetches pages of up to 1000 chats,
so a mostly photo-less page failed open and re-advertised removed
avatars. A row-value IN takes the same pairs in one predicate; a test
sends 1000. Two more tests from the review: search results hide a seen
removal, and a missing history table leaves the chat list at 200 with the
newest-file answer.

Version bump and changelog for 8.15.1: the two viewer corrections from #481, no migration.
PhenixStar pushed a commit to PhenixStar/Telegram-Archive that referenced this pull request Sep 25, 2026
Semantic port of upstream GeiserX#474 (and the no-download placeholder from GeiserX#481),
fitted to our fork, which has no retry-drain subsystem.

The viewer said "Will download on next backup" for every not-downloaded
row, although files over MAX_MEDIA_SIZE_MB, files the media filter
declined and media gone from Telegram never download on their own.

- media.skip_reason (migration 017, nullable, idempotent): "oversize",
  "filtered" or "unavailable"; NULL = pending or unclassified.
- Capture writes oversize/filtered on the two skip paths; any download
  outcome rewrites the column, so a success clears it.
- Each backup run reconciles by the live settings: legacy rows over the cap
  are classified, raising the cap or clearing the filter un-marks rows, a
  downloaded row never keeps a reason, and "unavailable" is never touched.
- refetch_incomplete_messages.py --mode skipped marks media it confirmed is
  gone (deleted message, expired view-once/timer media) as unavailable and
  no longer re-selects unavailable or filtered rows.
- The placeholder names the reason, and a no-download login reads "File not
  available for this login" instead of a promised download.

…otos

Semantic port of upstream GeiserX#469/GeiserX#479/GeiserX#481 for one account per archive (no
account dimension; each account's stack has its own avatars).

- chats.avatar_photo_id (migration 018) records the photo currently seen.
  The viewer serves that file instead of whichever avatar file is newest,
  falls back to the newest file when nothing is recorded or the file has
  not landed yet (not cached, so it shows as soon as it downloads), and a
  recorded removal shows no avatar.
- avatar_history (018) is append-only: upsert_chat adds a row whenever the
  recorded photo changes, in a SAVEPOINT so a failure never aborts the chat
  update; a removal is a NULL photo id. "min" entities, which omit the
  photo, record nothing.
- GET /api/chats/{id}/avatars (scoped like the chat): the current photo
  and every previous one on disk, dated by history where sighted. The Chat
  Info panel shows the real photo and a "Previous photos" strip. The chat
  list resolves removals with one history query per page, and the single
  chat endpoint now carries avatar_url too.
