Two issues caused intermittent step addition failures in the automation
pipeline:
1. RemoveBgControls had onChange in its useEffect deps. Since onChange is
a new function reference on every parent render, this created an
infinite re-render loop (effect -> setState -> render -> effect).
Fixed by using the onChangeRef pattern matching other settings
components.
2. All step mutation callbacks read from stepsRef.current and passed
values to setSteps. Concurrent callbacks (e.g. addStep + a settings
effect) would overwrite each other. Fixed by switching to functional
state updates (setSteps(prev => ...)) and removing stepsRef.
Also rewrites automate e2e tests to use manual step addition instead of
referencing templates that no longer exist in the UI.
Extract EXIF auto-orientation logic into a shared auto-orient module
used by both single-tool and batch routes. This ensures camera photos
display correctly after processing regardless of entry point.
Also expands e2e and integration tests significantly.
- Add user management endpoints (register, list, delete, change password)
- Add API key management (create, list, delete)
- Add settings persistence endpoints (get, put)
- Wire settings dialog to real backend (People, API Keys, System, Security)
- Fix login auth flow (window.location.href for full reload)
- Fix download URLs returning 401 (make public since UUIDs are unguessable)
- Fix border tool shadowColor validation (accept 6-8 hex digits)
- Fix remove-bg alpha matting fallback (retry without on failure)
- Fix AI tool silent fallbacks (report errors instead of no-ops)
- Add checkerboard background to before/after slider for transparency
- Add progress bars to all AI tool components
- Add Playwright E2E test suite (131 tests across 9 test files)
- Rewrite Dockerfile for production (tsx runtime, pre-baked AI models)
- Add .dockerignore for faster builds
