@@ -10,8 +10,18 @@ Default without --orig: only rows already publish=true.
After upload, any note token that is the local filename (backticked or
bare) or a previous url for that row becomes ![](https://files.catbox.moe/…).
Per-upload curl: --max-time 120, --retry 3, --retry-delay 2, --retry-all-errors.
Errors are sanitized to redact the userhash before printing.
Catbox rate-limits the userhash per minute. Algorithm:
- One attempt per upload. No curl retries. A failure is a failure —
the user retries the whole lift later (the script persists progress
after each success, so partial work survives).
- 60-second sleep between consecutive uploads in the same run.
- 200 KB/s upload cap per curl.
- On empty/non-URL body: sleep 120s before raising, so a manual
retry minutes later doesn't arrive during catbox's cooldown.
- media.json is rewritten after each successful upload (atomic),
not at the end of the run.
- Errors are sanitized to redact the userhash before printing.
