Join multiple images side by side, stacked vertically, or arranged in a grid. Supports alignment, gap, border, corner radius, and multiple resize modes.
## API Endpoint
`POST /api/v1/tools/stitch`
## Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Required | Default | Description |
|-----------|------|----------|---------|-------------|
| direction | string | No | `"horizontal"` | Layout direction: `horizontal`, `vertical`, `grid` |
| gridColumns | integer | No | 2 | Number of columns when direction is `grid` (2 to 100) |
| resizeMode | string | No | `"fit"` | How images are resized: `fit`, `original`, `stretch`, `crop` |
| alignment | string | No | `"center"` | Cross-axis alignment: `start`, `center`, `end` |
| gap | number | No | 0 | Gap between images in pixels (0 to 1000) |
| border | number | No | 0 | Outer border width in pixels (0 to 500) |
| cornerRadius | number | No | 0 | Corner radius applied to final output (0 to 500) |
| backgroundColor | string | No | `"#FFFFFF"` | Background/border color as hex (e.g. `#FF0000`) |
| format | string | No | `"png"` | Output format: `png`, `jpeg`, `webp`, `avif`, `jxl` |
| quality | number | No | 90 | Output quality (1 to 100) |

## Notes
- Requires at least 2 images. Upload multiple image files in the multipart request.
- Supports HEIC, RAW, PSD, and SVG input formats (automatically decoded).
- Resize modes:
- `fit` - Scale images to match the smallest dimension along the joining axis.
- `original` - Keep original sizes (may produce uneven edges).
- `stretch` - Force images to match the smallest dimension without preserving aspect ratio.
- `crop` - Cover-crop images to match the smallest dimension.
- In `grid` mode, cells are sized to the median dimensions of all images.
- The `cornerRadius` is applied to the entire final output, not individual images.
- Canvas size is limited by the `MAX_CANVAS_PIXELS` server configuration to prevent memory exhaustion.
