The catalog lives in Cloudflare D1. Favorites, watched state and personal lists remain private to this browser/device.
The taxonomy is organized into groups and nested categories, with broad-category inheritance and no person-name or administrative categories.
Search supports an exact year, exact title, quoted titles, and AND/OR/NOT operators.
Custom lists can be selected from existing lists, and duplicate names are blocked. Closing a movie returns to the same browsing position.
People can be filtered by role and cinema association. Actors, directors and writers belong in People rather than Categories.
Owner Add/Edit writes directly to D1 through the protected Admin API.
