What would the source of the txt file be? A list of new uploads? If
so, then we could add a feature where the tool updates itself with
newly added items in a category every day.
If you are simply loading from the files/category, it should be
automatic (perhaps too automatic!).

Haven't thought of that, good point. This is somewhat related to the
rate-as-you-go mode discussed above, so let me think about these and
I'll write back with a plan (or no plan ;))
Also important when you get the images you display directly from commons
(or do you download everything) and to keep the links working.
A possible way of dealing with it, is keeping an eye on move- and
deletion logs (which are public) and processing that. Not sure how that
would work automatically, but the data is there.
In my experience the trickiest cases are going back from an image page
to the upload log after it was renamed, and an image being splitted
(ie. Upload A, reupload A, Delete A, restore A1, move A → B, delete A,
restore A2).
Can your take the files from an existing db? It would be nice if it
could pull from the db with the list generated by my tools. I wasn't
able to find your database schema, though.
