Organize a 50,000-photo family archive through conversation
At a glance
An Immich user built a Claude Code plugin to search family photos, create travel albums and identify duplicates across several import sources. This workflow is listed under photo-management, personal-archives, duplicate-detection.
Posting as juanatsap, the author describes a family library imported from Apple Photos, Google Takeout and cameras. The plugin connects to the user's Immich instance, uses its Smart Search for natural-language queries and adds perceptual-hash duplicate detection. The post demonstrates a Barcelona search and travel-album creation, and describes exporting HTML galleries with embedded thumbnails.
How it went
The author shares the working search-and-album demonstration and a public repository with installation instructions.
Worth knowing
Claude receives metadata and thumbnails; Immich performs the CLIP search. The author says full-resolution photos stay on the user's network and deletions require review and approval.
