hermes - 💡(How to fix) Fix Pixshelf v1.5: manual submission tracking for stock agencies

Summary

Add lightweight manual submission tracking for Pixshelf v1.5.

This should close the loop after Stock Prep / Export without turning Pixshelf into an agency uploader, scraper, or submission automation tool.

Product boundary

Pixshelf should track what the user says they did manually. It should not:

• store agency login credentials
• upload files to agencies
• scrape agency dashboards
• call agency submission APIs
• sync acceptance/rejection automatically
• track royalties or earnings

Agencies to seed

Seed the tracker with the stock agencies / destinations IMstocker Studio supports or exposes in its current app/docs as of 2026-05-28:

• 123RF
• Adobe Stock
• Alamy
• Canva
• CanStockPhoto
• Depositphotos
• Dreamstime
• Envato / VideoHive
• Getty / iStock
• Microstock+
• Pond5
• Shutterstock

Also allow users to add custom agencies manually.

Core statuses

Each image should be trackable per agency with one of these statuses:

• Not submitted
• Submitted
• Accepted
• Rejected
• Needs revision

Optional fields:

• submitted date
• decision date
• rejection reason / note
• batch/export name

UX requirements

Library

Add a lightweight Submission Tracker entry point and filters, but do not clutter the main Library view.

Useful filters:

• ready but not submitted anywhere
• submitted to selected agency
• accepted by any agency
• rejected by selected agency
• needs revision
• not submitted to selected agency

Stock Prep / Export

After export, offer a batch action:

Mark selected images as submitted to: [agency list]

This should be a manual confirmation, not an upload action.

Image detail / metadata panel

Show compact per-agency status chips so the user can quickly see where an image stands.

Acceptance criteria

• User can enable/disable agencies from the seeded agency list.
• User can add a custom agency.
• User can set per-image, per-agency status manually.
• User can batch update selected images for one or more agencies.
• User can filter by agency/status combinations.
• Export/submission tracking remains local-first.
• No external network calls are made for submission tracking.
• The UI clearly labels this as manual tracking.

Versioning

Target: v1.5, after the core v1 flow is stable:

Inbox → Cull → Analyze → Stock Prep → Export
