The every-50-file progress line wasn't enough to know which blog was
currently being processed on a long run. Now -ingest prints a
"entering folder: <name>" line whenever the source folder changes, and
the every-50 progress line also prefixes the folder name.

`-ingest <blogname>` now restricts the run to one blog's folder, mirroring
the existing -parse <blogname> ergonomics. `-ingest` with no arg still
processes every blog under appSettings:PathTTRoot (or PathInput fallback).
Breaking vs 3aff849: the first positional arg is interpreted as a blog
name, not a path. Configure the root via appSettings:PathTTRoot.

Folds the standalone ThreeTxtFileHelper tool into URLNotesGrabberCORE so
text-file ingest/output/correct lives alongside the API scraper. Adds
new flags -ingest, -output, -correct (with -apply), -updatepaths, and a
one-time -importposts <posts.db> migration.
Schema: Blogs.TTFolderPath and Posts.PostType are added by an idempotent
migration. On (BlogName, PostID) collisions, content columns are
overwritten while engagement columns (ByLikes, RootBlogName, RootURL,
HasNotesGathered, NotFound, NotesGatheredDateTime, Likes*) are preserved.

After backfill completes for a blog, -likes can now pick up only newer
likes instead of being a one-shot pull. Tracks a per-blog
liked_timestamp high-water mark and stops the refresh walk once it
crosses the stored mark. A configurable cooldown (LikesRefreshCooldownDays,
default 7) gates which blogs are re-checked on each run. -force bypasses
the cooldown.
The migration adds three columns to Blogs (LikesNewestTimestamp,
LikesLastRefreshed, LikesLastNewCount) and does a one-time reset of all
likes tracking state so the new high-water mark starts from a clean
baseline. Existing ByLikes posts remain; the UNIQUE constraint absorbs
re-inserts during the first re-backfill.

AddBlog/AddPost/UpdatePost/UpdatePostSetDate now reuse a single SQLiteConnection
when an import session is active, instead of opening and closing one per call.
AddBlog also short-circuits on an in-memory HashSet of blog names already
attempted this run. Other entry points are unaffected since they never call
BeginImportSession.

Per-iteration call in CollectNotes was dumping ~30 lines of newline-padded
SQL to the console. Replace with a whitespace-collapsed single-line print.

- GetPosts: match NotesGatheredDateTime = 0 instead of IS NULL for the
beforeDate cutoff.
- GetBlogsForLikes: drop the EXISTS-Posts predicate so blogs with notes
but no posts rows are still eligible for likes collection.

Pre-flight check on the CollectNotes loop now sleeps until at least one
key recovers instead of issuing a wasted 429-bound request per iteration.
Extracts the countdown into ApiKeyPool.SleepUntilAnyAvailable (30s refresh)
and reuses it in CollectLikes and GrabNotes.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <[email protected]>
Changed CollectNotes from async void to async Task and await it with
.GetAwaiter().GetResult() to match the pattern used by -replies and -likes.
Previously the method would return immediately after the first await,
causing Main to exit before the loop could process more than one post.

Tumblr API 404s were leaving Posts.NotFound=0 and Notes.replyText='.',
so GetRepliesWithFilledText kept re-selecting the same dead post and
the loop spun forever. Mark NotFound=1 and replies '?' on 404.

Apply the URL format to the remaining 6 console log lines that still
referenced posts in <blog>/<id> form (404 logs, max-page-limit log,
DumpReplies console output).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <[email protected]>
Console-friendly URL format for log lines that reference a specific
post — easier to copy/paste into a browser when investigating output.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <[email protected]>
Previous fix removed '.' from the GetRepliesWithFilledText SELECT,
which broke processing of legacy null-substitute rows that need to be
re-fetched.
Restored '.' in the SELECT. To avoid the infinite loop when an actual
API reply is the literal string ".", normalize it to ". " (dot +
trailing space) inside UpdateNoteReplyText so the stored value no
longer matches the sentinel.
Also extended the fan-out UPDATE guard to match the SELECT criteria
(NULL / '' / '.') so legacy '.' rows in other reblog copies can be
filled in too. The guard still refuses to overwrite '?' or
already-fetched text.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <[email protected]>
'.' was used as a sentinel for 'not yet fetched' in the SELECT query,
but it is also valid reply text. This caused any post where a reply
text was literally '.' to stay in the work queue forever.
Also fixes the fan-out UPDATE guard: previously it used
IFNULL(replyText, '.') <> @newValue, which would overwrite '?'
(confirmed-empty) rows with '.' when processing a dot reply elsewhere
in the reblog chain, pulling completed posts back into the queue and
causing the remaining counter to increase.
Changes:
- Remove OR replyText = '.' from GetRepliesWithFilledText SELECT
- Restrict UpdateNoteReplyText fan-out to NULL/'' rows only
- Use '?' not '.' as null-coalesce fallback in UpdateNoteReplyText

Previously, the '?' marker only fired when page 1 returned empty notes.
Posts whose page 1 contained only likes/reblogs and whose page 2 came
back empty were never marked, so GetRepliesWithFilledText kept reselecting
them every iteration. Now mark after the pagination loop whenever
rowsUpdated==0 and at least one page returned 200 OK.
UpdateAllNoteReplyTextForPost now returns int so the caller can fold
the count into emptyReplyCount/rowsUpdated for accurate Done logging.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <[email protected]>
When the API responds 200 OK with notes:[] on the first page,
the post has no conversational notes per Tumblr. Stamp all the
post's reply rows '?' so the per-iteration requery stops handing
this post back forever. Only fires for first-page 200 OK so a
later-page empty (end of pagination) doesn't poison good rows.
A reply by a given blog at a given timestamp is the same reply
across the original post and every reblog of it. Drop PostID from
the UpdateNoteReplyText WHERE clause so a single API hit fills in
the replyText on every matching row at once.
Pair that with a per-iteration requery (limit 1) of the work list
so posts whose replies were already filled in as a side-effect of
a previous post's update are skipped without burning an API call.
The API returns reply timestamps that are ~1s ahead of what -collect
originally stored, so an exact TimeStamp match in the UPDATE was
hitting zero rows for every note - the API call worked, the reply
text came back, but nothing landed in the DB. Match within +-5s
instead. Also return rowsAffected from UpdateNoteReplyText and
report it separately from notes-seen in the summary so misses are
visible.
The DB-derived MAX(N.timestamp)+1 for a post is unreliable - many notes
were stored with the same timestamp (likely crawl time, not the actual
note timestamp), so passing it as before_timestamp excluded all real
replies and returned an empty notes array. Diagnostics showed two
unrelated posts coming back with identical totals (1625/1021/603) and
zero notes.
Now we start with no before_timestamp (newest page) and let pagination
walk backward via each page's last-note timestamp.
Wrap FetchAndStoreReplyText in a per-post pagination loop (up to 10
pages, advancing before_timestamp via the last note's timestamp) so
posts with >50 notes are fully walked. Log raw response (meta + first
500 chars of JSON) when a page returns no notes so empty results are
diagnosable. Stop blanket-marking every reply on a post with '?' on
the first empty response - rows stay '.' and remain retry-eligible;
only individual replies that come back with empty reply_text are
marked '?'.
Call ApiKeyPool.MarkAvailable(key) after successful reply fetch in FetchAndStoreReplyText, matching behavior in CollectLikes. This produces the colored '[Pool] Key#N (...) rate-limit cleared' line for each API call, allowing operators to visually track which API key is being used per request.

appsettings.json — Added PoolEnabled to each API section:
- TumblrApi → true
- TumblrApi3 → false
- TumblrApi4 → true
DataAccess.cs — Added:
- ApiKeyConfig class — holds credentials + metadata per key
- ApiKeyPool class — manages pool with round-robin rotation, SQLite-backed state (ApiKeyPoolState, ApiKeyPoolMeta tables)
- GetCurrentKey() — returns next key, skipping rate-limited ones, falls back to earliest-recovery if all are throttled
- MarkRateLimited(key, retryUntil) / MarkAvailable(key) — persists state
- Initialize() — discovers pool-enabled keys, detects single-key override mode
- Refactored APIAccess.GrabNotes(), GrabPostWithReplies(), GrabLikes() to accept ApiKeyConfig param and log [Key#N]
Program.cs — Updated:
- Tracks apiExplicitlySet flag from -api/-api3/-api4
- Initializes ApiKeyPool at startup (pool mode or single-key override)
- All 3 API callers updated to use pool rotation + 429 handling
Startup Output
- Pool mode: [Pool] Active keys: Key#1=TumblrApi, Key#2=TumblrApi4
- Single-key: [Pool] Single-key mode: TumblrApi3
- Add SQLite import mode pragmas for faster bulk inserts
- Implement -urldump command to extract all URLs from posts
- Add -start [blogname] CLI option for partial traversal

Allows switching between multiple Tumblr API credential sets at runtime using new command-line arguments (-api3, -api4, -api [section]). API keys are now read from the selected section in appsettings.json, with validation for required keys. Also updates the SQL query for selecting blogs needing likes to use more precise filtering and ordering. Usage/help output is updated to reflect new options.
Introduce byLikes parameter to AddBlog, AddPost, and UpdatePost methods, updating SQL logic and schema to store this flag. Ensure all relevant calls and SQL statements handle the new ByLikes column, allowing tracking of whether entries were added "by likes." Also standardize hasImage boolean handling in SQL.
