- Convert all AI bridge inputs to PNG before writing to disk so PIL can
read AVIF/WebP/TIFF (7 bridge files; face-detection and OCR already
had this pattern)
- Add title/author aliases to edit-metadata schema so common field names
actually write EXIF tags instead of being silently stripped by Zod
- Port extend/pad crop logic from passport-photo single endpoint to the
batch pipeline so crop regions extending beyond the image get filled
with background color instead of producing all-white output
- Clamp quantized color channels to 255 in color-palette to prevent
Math.round(255/16)*16=256 from producing invalid hex like #100100100
- Compare OCR fallback warning against expected engine name per tier
instead of comparing engine name against tier name (always mismatch)
* feat(noise-removal): register tool in shared constants and i18n
* feat(noise-removal): add SCUNet and NAFNet model architectures
* feat(noise-removal): add Python denoising engine with 4 quality tiers
* feat(noise-removal): add TypeScript bridge for Python sidecar
* feat(noise-removal): add frontend settings with 4-tier selector
* feat(noise-removal): register in tool registry and pipeline
* feat(noise-removal): add Fastify API route with Zod validation
* feat(noise-removal): add SCUNet and NAFNet model downloads to Docker build
* test(noise-removal): add to e2e tool page rendering tests
* test(noise-removal): add integration tests for API endpoint
* style: fix biome formatting and import ordering
* fix(noise-removal): use correct model download URLs
NAFNet model is hosted on HuggingFace, not GitHub releases.
Also align SCUNet URL to use the KAIR releases (same as Docker build).
* fix(noise-removal): remove emojis from tier selector, simplify labels
Drop emoji icons from Quick/Balanced/Quality/Maximum buttons. Replace
technical algorithm names with plain descriptions users can understand.
