CivitAI Browser Neo | Forge Neo Extension

v1.0.0 — First Stable ReleaseThe biggest update since the Neo fork. The Browser is no longer tied to CivitAI alone, the Local Models tab was rebuilt from scratch, and LoRA category management ships alongside it.Multi-Source Browser. Search through source adapters instead of CivitAI only: CivArchive, ModelScope and Arc en Ciel join CivitAI in the source dropdown. CivArchive also brings a "Deleted from CivitAI" filter for models that were removed from the site.Paste model URL. Paste a direct link from CivitAI, CivArchive, Hugging Face, ModelScope or Arc en Ciel and the extension figures out the provider, fetches the model and renders a card ready to download. Hugging Face file links resolve to the exact file, subfolders included.Local Models rebuilt. Its own state, pagination (25/50/100 per page), filters and progress bar, fully separate from the Browser tab. Update Models is merged into it, so scanning, batch updating, renaming and deleting all happen in one place. Models the API cannot resolve stay visible as local-only cards instead of vanishing from your library.LoraDex. A new sub-tab for LoRA categories. Every LoRA gets a category suggested from its tags, description and filename, you can override it by hand, and the choice is saved to the .json sidecar. Categories show as badges on the cards and can sort your LoRAs into Lora/[base]/[category]/ subfolders.Badges on the native Extra Networks cards. Your txt2img and img2img checkpoint and LoRA cards now show the base model, the LoRA category, trigger words and the real CivitAI name, read from the sidecars already on disk with no extra API calls. There is also an opt-in theme that restyles those cards to look like the CivitAI website.Paid and Early Access are finally told apart. A timed early access window (which expires into a free download) gets an aqua badge, a permanent Buzz purchase gets a gold "Paid" badge. Each has its own hide filter, and downloads of gated versions are now blocked up front with a message naming which gate applies, instead of failing with a confusing Aria2 error.Metadata maintenance. "Verify local metadata" checks that the CivitAI IDs cached next to your models still resolve and that the .api_info.json matches its file. "Resolve via CivArchive" then recovers real metadata for models that were delisted, so they keep working names, versions and previews.GGUF support. .gguf is a first-class checkpoint format now: scanned by Local Models, recognised as installed by Browser cards, with sidecars, delete and update checks working exactly like .safetensors.Faster and steadier. Installed detection and bulk download no longer walk your whole model tree once per card. Previews can be saved as JPEG. Aria2 retries with backoff on rate limits. Freshly published versions no longer show a false "Unable to load preview images" error, and updating with "Replace installed" no longer writes the previous version's data into the sidecar.Full changelog and documentation: https://github.com/eduardoabreu81/sd-civitai-browser-neo/wiki
