perf: write-through in-memory cache for tracker JSON reads

All _load() calls after the first return the cached dict instead of
re-reading disk. _save() updates both disk and cache atomically.
Drops per-person tracker reads from ~90 to ~1 in the upload loop.
Keyed by resolved file path so test isolation (unique tmp_path dirs)
is preserved with no fixture changes needed.

-### Changed
-
-- **Flat `uploaded_asset_ids` / `rejected_asset_ids` lists dropped as primary storage**: asset IDs are now derived on read from `by_person` entries, which are the single source of truth. The legacy flat lists in existing tracker files are still read (union) so no assets become re-eligible after upgrading. New writes no longer maintain the flat lists. This removes the dual-representation sync hazard and paves the way for multi-instance support (per-instance `by_person` keying in a future release).
-
-- **Tracker writes batched per person**: `mark_uploaded` calls inside the per-person upload loop are now accumulated in memory (`begin_batch`) and flushed in a single `os.replace` write at the end of each person's loop (`flush_batch`), reducing N tracker writes per person to 1. Benefits users on slow storage (NAS, SD card, spinning disks).
-
-- **`RESET_PERSON=*` is now O(1) disk writes**: replaced the per-person `reset_person` loop with `reset_all_people()`, which makes one Frigate API call per person for file deletion and then clears both tracker files in two writes. Previously it was O(P²) iterations and 2P writes.
-
-- **`blur_score_from_image` inlines Laplacian computation**: replaced the `assess_quality()` call (which ran grayscale, exposure, and confidence checks whose results were discarded) with a direct `cv2.Laplacian` computation. The function is now self-contained and does not silently inherit future costs added to the full quality pipeline.
-
-## [0.6.1] - 2026-06-16
-
-### Fixed
-
-- **Corrupt or truncated full-res thumbnails now marked rejected**: `OSError` (truncated file) is caught alongside `PIL.UnidentifiedImageError` in the thumbnail path so persistently bad assets are tombstoned instead of retried forever. Full-res download failures (`USE_FULL_RESOLUTION=true`) remain transient — not marked rejected — so a Immich blip doesn't permanently blacklist valid assets.
-
-- **Quality replacement mode no longer flips mid-loop**: `person_has_fscores` was re-evaluated after each file deletion, which could switch the remaining replacements from Frigate-score mode to blur-score mode if the deleted file was the last scored one. The mode is now fixed for the duration of the upload loop.
-
-- **`reset_person` no longer removes shared asset IDs**: the flat `uploaded_asset_ids` list is now rebuilt from all remaining `by_person` entries rather than subtracting the reset person's IDs. Previously, resetting Alice could remove an asset ID that also appeared under Bob, making it re-eligible for upload.
-
-- **`_save` cache updated only after successful write**: the in-memory tracker cache is now updated after `os.replace` succeeds rather than before. A disk-full or permission error no longer leaves the cache permanently ahead of the on-disk file.
-
-- **Stale Frigate file cleanup batched**: the per-file `remove_frigate_file` loop is replaced with a single `remove_frigate_files_batch` call, reducing N tracker writes to 1 when stale mappings are cleaned up.
-
-- **`_migrate_entry` no longer mutates the cache through nested dict aliases**: all five nested dicts (`asset_ids`, `scores`, `frigate_scores`, `frigate_files`, `crop_dims`) are now individually copied so `.pop()` calls in write paths cannot reach the in-memory cache.
-
-- **`find_by_crop_dimension` and `_pick_mapped_file` now agree on duplicate asset→file handling**: both use first-seen-wins when the same `asset_id` maps to multiple Frigate filenames, preventing inconsistent replacement decisions.
-
-- **Non-atomic JSON write**: tracker files are written to a `.tmp` sibling then renamed with `os.replace` so a crash mid-write never leaves a truncated file.
-
-- **`get_person_summary` uses `_migrate_entry`**: replaced three ad-hoc `isinstance` guards with a single `_migrate_entry` call, making old-format (list) entries consistent with every other read path.
-
-- **Quality replacement floor check**: a candidate with a `None` blur score (PIL error during scoring) no longer blocks a freed slot — the `<=` floor comparison is only applied when a score is actually available.
-
-- **`executor.py` syntax error**: the `if img is None:` block in the full-res download path was comment-only and would have raised `IndentationError` on import. Added `pass`.
-
-- **Duplicate `if stale:` guard**: two consecutive identical guards around stale-cleanup and its log print were merged into one.
-
-- **`_flat_key` uses constant equality** instead of substring match, removing a latent routing bug for any filename that happens to contain "uploaded".
-
-- **`remove_frigate_file` no longer creates ghost entries**: returns early when the person is absent rather than writing an empty stub.
-
-- **`skip_ids` extracted to helper**: the identical set comprehension in `_handle_duplicate_people` that appeared in three branches is now a single `_smaller_duplicate_ids()` inner function.
-
-- **`blur_score_from_image` returns `None` on error** instead of `0.0`, so callers can distinguish a failed measurement from a legitimately near-zero Laplacian variance score.
-
-## [0.6.0] - 2026-06-15
-
-### Changed
-
-- **Upload tracker reverted to JSON storage**: the SQLite-based tracker introduced in v0.5.0 produced 17 bug-fix releases in two days due to data-loss risks in the migration layer, schema primary key conflicts, tracker isolation races, and disk-full retry storms. The JSON backend (`frigate_uploaded_ids.json` / `frigate_rejected_ids.json` in `DATA_DIR`) is restored. It is simpler, has no migration layer, and carries no external dependency. If you ran any v0.5.x version, delete `frigate_tracker.db` from your `DATA_DIR` once you confirm the JSON files look correct. JSON files from before v0.5.0 are read automatically with no changes required.
-
-- **`CACHE_DIR` env var accepted as `DATA_DIR` alias**: the rename introduced in v0.5.1 is preserved — `CACHE_DIR` still works with a deprecation warning. The default data path remains `data` (Docker: `/app/data`).
-
-- **Config file now lives in `DATA_DIR`**: `.immich_config.json` resolves to `DATA_DIR/.immich_config.json` so it persists across container restarts. The legacy CWD location is still checked as a fallback for existing setups.
-
-- **Diversity selector receives capacity as its limit directly**: instead of selecting up to `MAX_AUTO_IMAGES` and then slicing to the remaining capacity, the selector now runs with the actual remaining slot count as its budget.
-
-### Fixed
-
-- **Immich v2.7.5 compatibility**: `auto_configure` no longer pre-filters people by `assetCount` from `/api/people`, which Immich v2.7.5 dropped. The `MIN_FACE_COUNT` check now runs after `fetch_all_assets` using the actual fetched count.
-
-- **`fetch_face_data` no longer falls back to a wrong person's bounding box**: when `person_id` is provided but not found in the Immich `/api/faces` response, the function now returns `None` instead of using `faces[0]`. Previously a group photo where the target person's face entry was missing would inject a different person's bounding box into the crop.
-
-- **Corrupt thumbnail permanently rejected**: when `resp.ok=True` but `PIL.UnidentifiedImageError` is raised (Pillow cannot identify the image format), the asset is now marked rejected so it isn't re-downloaded on every future run. Transient `OSError`/truncation errors are intentionally not caught here — those are retried normally.
-
-- **`mark_uploaded` tracker failure no longer aborts the upload loop**: a tracker write failure after a successful Frigate POST is logged and the loop continues; the asset will be re-uploaded on the next run rather than the current run dying mid-job.
-
-- **`progress.remove_task` now in `finally` block**: the progress bar task is cleaned up even when a job exits via an exception, preventing orphaned progress rows in the terminal.
-
-- **`SKIP_PEOPLE`/`ONLY_PEOPLE` now strip whitespace**: `"Alice, Bob".split(",")` produces `[" Bob"]`; the leading space now stripped so comma-separated values with spaces work as expected.
-
-- **`FRIGATE_URL` with trailing slash no longer produces double-slash paths**: all Frigate API calls now use `_get_frigate_url()` for URL normalization rather than reading `FRIGATE_URL` inline.
-
-- **Frigate version `v`-prefix now stripped**: `v0.16.0`-style version strings are correctly parsed.
-
-- **Invalid numeric env var values warn and use defaults**: a typo such as `YEARS_FILTER=10 ` (trailing space) or `MIN_FACE_WIDTH=auto` now logs a `WARNING` and falls back to the documented default instead of raising `ValueError` at startup. Affects `YEARS_FILTER`, `MIN_FACE_WIDTH`, `MIN_FACE_COUNT`, `MAX_AUTO_IMAGES`, `BLUR_THRESHOLD`, `MIN_CONFIDENCE`, and `FACE_MARGIN`.
-
-- **`IMMICH_URL` blank placeholder falls back to config file**: `IMMICH_URL=` (empty or blank) in `.env` is now treated as unset and falls through to `DATA_DIR/.immich_config.json`, matching pre-v0.5.0 behaviour.
-
-- **Reconciliation checks Frigate immediately before first sleep**: the poll loop now performs an immediate check after upload, then backs off with `(1, 2, 4, 8)` s delays only if needed.
-
-- **Dockerfile unknown `VARIANT` now fails loudly**: an unrecognised value now exits with an error instead of silently falling through to the cpu branch.
-
-- **Embedding cache writes are now atomic**: `.npy` files are written to a `.tmp` sibling and renamed into place with `os.replace`, preventing truncated cache entries on process kill.
-
-- **`EmbeddingCache` singleton re-creates when `DATA_DIR` changes**: prevents test runs from sharing cache state across different `DATA_DIR` values.
-
-### Added
-
-- **Diversity test suite** (PR #11): 33 tests covering k-medoids clustering, farthest-point sampling, adaptive threshold computation, near-duplicate deduplication, and time-spread selection. Total: 93 tests.
-
-## [0.4.11] - 2026-06-14
-
-### Removed
-
-- **Object mode pipeline fully removed**: YOLO object detection, SigLIP image classification, `TRAINING_MODE`, and `OBJECT_CLASS` env vars are gone. Frigate has no training API for objects; the ~2 GB model stack (torch, torchvision, transformers, ultralytics) was dead weight.
-- **Dead Immich embedding path removed**: `FaceData.embedding` field and the `immich_embedding` parameter to `get_embedding()` were never consumed by any caller. Both removed along with the NumPy import in `immich_api.py` that existed solely for that path.
-- **Dead `mode` config key removed**: `"mode": "face"` was written into job config dicts in `jobs.py` but never read after object mode removal.
-
-### Fixed
-
-- **InsightFace `FutureWarning` suppressed in crop-alignment path**: the `insightface_app.get()` call in `image_processing.py` now wraps the same `warnings.catch_warnings()` suppressor already present in `embeddings.py`, preventing scikit-image deprecation noise in logs.
-
-### Changed
-
-- **Variant pyproject files synced to current state**: `pyproject-rocm.toml`, `pyproject-cpu.toml`, `pyproject-intel.toml` were at v0.2.13 and still listed torch/transformers/ultralytics. Updated to v0.4.11 and cleaned to face-only deps. Note: corresponding lockfiles (uv-rocm.lock, uv-cpu.lock, uv-intel.lock) need regeneration in their respective platform environments.
-- **`MERGE_DUPLICATE_PEOPLE` documented**: README and wiki now explain the default warn-and-skip behaviour vs. setting `true` for a permanent Immich merge, with irreversibility callout.
-- **Wiki fully updated**: all five wiki pages rewritten to remove object mode references, correct model size (~300 MB InsightFace vs former ~1–2 GB HuggingFace+InsightFace), fix default values (`MAX_AUTO_IMAGES` 80→20, `MIN_FACE_COUNT` 0→3), add `MERGE_DUPLICATE_PEOPLE` coverage, and update GPU verification commands for current ONNX provider API.
-
-## [0.4.10] - 2026-06-14
-
-### Changed
-
-- **`MAX_AUTO_IMAGES` default lowered from `80` to `20`**: winnow is designed to fill the gap where manual Frigate training images don't exist — not to be the primary dataset. A conservative default ensures winnow-imported images remain secondary to hand-picked ones where both exist.
-
-## [0.4.9] - 2026-06-14
-
-### Changed
-
-- **`FRIGATE_SCORE_CEILING` is now dynamic by default**: previously defaulted to `0` (disabled). Now unset (default) enables a self-calibrating novelty gate — below-cap candidates are skipped if their pre-upload Frigate score exceeds the most-redundant tracked file's score. This catches conditions already covered by manually-added Frigate images that winnow cannot track. Set `FRIGATE_SCORE_CEILING=0` to disable entirely; set a positive value (e.g. `0.85`) for a fixed hard ceiling.
-- **Quality replacement branches consolidated**: the Frigate-score and blur-score replacement paths in the upload loop shared identical structure. Merged into a single code path parameterised by score source and comparison direction.
-- **`MIN_FACE_COUNT` default raised from `0` to `3`**: people with fewer than 3 tagged photos produce degenerate training sets; skipping them by default avoids noisy runs.
-- **`STRATEGY=adaptive`** is the new primary name for embedding-based diversity selection; `auto` remains a silent alias for backwards compatibility.
-- **`MERGE_DUPLICATE_PEOPLE` and `TRACE_CROP_SIZE`** added to the README env var table (were in the codebase but undocumented).
-- **CUDA version corrected** in the image tags table (was 13.3, actual base image is 12.8.1).

-The best Frigate training data is images you curate manually — photos taken specifically for recognition, in controlled conditions, uploaded directly through Frigate's UI. Winnow is meant to supplement people in your library, not replace manual training. In some cases one has people they would like to recognize that do not occur in detections often enough to train a diverse dataset. This is meant to fill that gap.
+Frigate's face recognition is only as good as its training data — and the key quality metric is **diversity**, not volume. A hundred photos from the same week teach the model one lighting condition. What you need is a spread: different years, different angles, different lighting, different contexts. Your photo library already has that data. winnow finds and delivers the right subset automatically.
 
-> **winnow only touches files it uploaded.** Faces added to Frigate manually through its UI are never deleted, replaced, or modified — not by quality replacement, not by `RESET_PERSON`, not by stale cleanup. Your manually curated images are always the primary dataset; winnow only adds to it.

-> **Duplicate people detection** — winnow warns at startup if the same name appears on multiple Immich person records (a common side-effect of Immich's face clustering creating separate pools for the same individual). By default (`false`) it logs the duplicates, keeps only the person with the most assets, and skips the rest — no data is changed. Set `MERGE_DUPLICATE_PEOPLE=true` to permanently merge each duplicate group inside Immich (the person with the most assets absorbs the others). **This modifies Immich and cannot be undone.** Only enable it once you've verified the duplicates are actually the same person.
