Covers session response fields, password guards, users list,
config endpoint, login redirect, callback edge cases, and
backward compatibility. Also adds migration to make password_hash
nullable (required for OIDC-only users) and vitest aliases for
@fastify/cookie and openid-client.
- Two-gate threshold: Otsu >= 60 uses Otsu; 40-59 uses fixed 100
(catches strong scratches on borderline images)
- Remove morphological OPEN after component filtering: it was eroding
thin scratch lines that were correctly detected
- Lower Otsu gate from 60 to 40 to avoid false-negating borderline images
The transparency-fixer now directly detects the baked-in checkerboard
pattern using per-pixel chroma analysis instead of BiRefNet AI matting.
Achromatic pixels in the gray range are classified as background
(transparent), chromatic pixels as foreground (opaque), with smooth
transitions at anti-aliased edges.
- No longer requires Python sidecar or background-removal bundle
- Watermark removal uses Sharp median(5) filter pre-processing
- Moved tool from "ai" to "utilities" category
- Removed from PYTHON_SIDECAR_TOOLS and background-removal enablesTools
- Near-instant processing (pure Sharp, no model inference)
The luminance anomaly detection + LaMa inpainting approach failed because
watermark signal on the matted foreground was too weak (10-15 units vs
threshold of 25). Median filter with kernel=5 effectively removes
semi-transparent watermark text while preserving the stamp structure.
Pipeline is now: median filter (if toggle on) -> BiRefNet matting -> defringe.
No longer requires object-eraser-colorize bundle for watermark removal.
Evidence-based spec informed by diagnostic testing on 4 sample images.
Addresses catastrophic scratch over-detection (up to 68.7% false
coverage on small images), LaMa 512x512 resolution loss, CodeFormer
over-smoothing on small faces, and excessive NLMeans defaults.
Add tier enum (fast/balanced/high) with balanced default to the Zod
settings schema. Pass tier through to outpaint options in both the HTTP
route and the pipeline/batch registry. Fix log message to say
"Starting AI canvas expand" and include tier in structured log fields.
Add TIER_PARAMS dict with fast/balanced/high presets controlling band
size, mask dilation, seam strip width, and Telea pre-inpainting. Parse
tier from sys.argv[7] with balanced fallback. Conditional Telea and
seam refinement steps skip cleanly for fast tier. Progressive outpaint
now accepts band_size and progress bounds for tier-appropriate scaling.
- Fix dispatcher pipe deadlock: drain stdout pipe in a background thread
to prevent blocking when ONNX runtime output exceeds 64KB pipe buffer
- Add 5-minute SSE stall timeout so the UI shows an error instead of
hanging forever when async AI processing stalls
- Guard CPU colorization: skip for images >2MP on CPU and when DDColor
model is not installed, with clear user-facing messages
- Add AVIF decode fallback via ImageMagick for bitstream variants that
Sharp's bundled libheif cannot decode (affects all tools)
EXR: add ffmpeg fallback when ImageMagick lacks the OpenEXR delegate
(common on macOS Homebrew installs). HDR: force 8-bit depth output to
prevent CLAHE crash (hist_local requires VIPS_FORMAT_UCHAR). Batch:
disable socket timeout and increase server requestTimeout to 30 min
so large AI batches don't get killed by Node.js defaults.
AVIF (and other Sharp-native formats) were written as raw bytes to a
.png temp file, causing PIL to fail with "cannot identify image file".
Every other AI module wrapper already converts via sharp().png().toBuffer()
before writing; face-landmarks was the only one that skipped this step.
HDR and EXR files decoded by ImageMagick can produce 16-bit PNG buffers.
Sharp's CLAHE operation (hist_local) requires VIPS_FORMAT_UCHAR (8-bit).
Check the buffer depth and convert to 8-bit sRGB before processing.
The wrapper used inline-block for tools without overlay children (e.g.
border). CSS maxHeight: 100% on the img inside an inline-block parent
without explicit height does not resolve, so tall images rendered at
natural height and got clipped by overflow: hidden. Unify both code
paths to always use inline-flex + column, where the flex item properly
shrinks within the container's maxHeight constraint.
