Remove Background:
- Two-phase flow: AI removes bg once, then effects adjust instantly
- Blur background effect with real-time CSS preview (portrait mode)
- Drop shadow effect with opacity control
- Gradient backgrounds with presets, custom colors, and angle
- Custom background image upload (including HEIC/HEIF)
- Solid color backgrounds moved from Python to Node.js/Sharp
- Effects-only API endpoint for instant re-renders without AI re-run
- HEIC/HEIF input support (decoded before passing to Python/rembg)
- Passport/ID photo checkbox defaults ON for People subject
- Before/after slider preserved when no effects active
- 15 comprehensive Playwright e2e tests
Color Tools:
- Consolidated 4 tools (brightness-contrast, saturation, color-channels,
color-effects) into single "Adjust Colors" tool
- Added exposure, temperature, tint, hue, sharpness controls
- SVG filter-based live preview for all adjustments
- Backward-compatible URL redirects from old tool paths
Other fixes:
- Favicon tool: download button instead of auto-download
- Batch processing: HEIC filename extension fix
- File store: processedFilename field for proper batch downloads
Keep the main docker run command front and center. Lite and CUDA
variants are in a collapsible details block so the quick start
section stays scannable.
SVG files were rejected by the convert endpoint because
validateImageBuffer only recognized raster magic bytes. This adds
text-based SVG detection, sanitization in the tool factory, and
proper Sharp density handling so SVG-to-raster conversion works
through the standard convert route.
test-200x150.png and test-1x1.png were present locally but never
committed, causing CI failures on clean checkouts. Also added a
gitignore exception for tests/fixtures/*.png.
