The album, artist and playlist GetCursor built their own select and never called hydrateArtwork, so every Jellyfin list endpoint (all six stream via GetCursor) emitted entity-id image tags and no blurhash. Only GetAll hydrated, which is why Subsonic and the native API were unaffected. Each cursor now resolves its ordered/filtered/paginated id set with the cheap id-only GetAllIDs query, then streams those ids in chunks through the repo's existing GetAll, which already hydrates and applies the full select. Max/Offset are consumed by the pre-pass alone; the chunk query carries only the caller's filters, Sort and Order. This also removes a pre-existing deep-pagination cost: keeping OFFSET out of the joined query makes the pre-pass a covering index scan instead of paying the library and annotation joins for every skipped row. Benchmarked on a synthetic 100k-album DB with the real schema, page=500 at offset 90,000: 3.9ms via the id pre-pass, 52.5ms for the current shape, 192.7ms for a naive join. An unpaginated full stream costs ~24% more, which is the trade. GetAllIDs gains the annotation join whenever the caller's filters or sort reference an annotation column (same gate CountAll uses), otherwise Filters=IsFavorite and SortBy=PlayCount would fail in the pre-pass. The playlist pre-pass repeats GetAll's columns so ORDER BY keeps resolving to playlist.name rather than the joined user.name.
