Proxmox LXC and other headless Linux installs lack libgl1, causing
all AI tools to show a misleading "install opencv-python-headless"
error even though the pip package is already installed. Detect the
libGL ImportError and suggest `apt-get install -y libgl1` instead.
- 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
- 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)
Code fixes:
- Sidebar state bleed: reset file store on HomePage mount
- restore-photo: raise error instead of silently skipping colorize
when DDColor model missing
- PaddleOCR OOM: cap input images to 2048px before OCR inference
- Torch CPU optimization: use --index-url .../whl/cpu on CPU nodes
Test fixes:
- upscale: add exact:true to scale factor button locators
- smart-crop: add exact:true to "Pad to square" locator
- colorize: use regex for model button names (Best/Balanced/Fast)
- enhance-faces: use .first() for ambiguous percentage display
- passport-photo: fix DPI locator, .or() compound, generate fallback
- people: update maxUsers assertions for unlimited (0) default
- automate: "Save Pipeline" → "Save" matching actual button text
- tools.test: add resize to Sharp mock chain for OCR tests
- Add Cloudflare Pages deployment for landing page (snapotter.com) and
docs (docs.snapotter.com)
- Create deploy-landing.yml and update deploy-docs.yml workflows
- Update CI to ignore apps/landing/** paths
- Fix logo transparency (remove white background) across all apps
- Recreate social-preview.png with SnapOtter branding
- Update all docs URLs from GitHub Pages to docs.snapotter.com
- Update VitePress config: light theme default, fix llms.txt paths
- Add .vitepress/cache/ and .env.* to gitignore
1. split batch 404: register split tool in batch registry via
registerToolProcessFn() so /api/v1/tools/split/batch works
2. CodeFormer crash: inference_app() expects a file path, not a numpy
array. Save to temp file before calling, read result back.
3. OCR fallback chain: fix case-sensitive "Segmentation fault" match
that prevented PaddleOCR crash from triggering Tesseract fallback.
Also add "process crashed" check. Upgrade ARM paddlepaddle to >=3.2.1.
4. blur-faces large images: downscale to 1920px max before MediaPipe
detection, scale coordinates back. Also add rotation retry for
portrait-oriented images where BlazeFace misses faces. Applied to
detect_faces.py, enhance_faces.py, and restore.py.
5. color-adjustments tool ID: fix mismatch in index.ts registration
array (was "color-adjustments", should be "adjust-colors").
- Add safe_onnx_session() to gpu.py with graceful CUDA EP → CPU fallback
- Replace bare ort.InferenceSession() calls across colorize, restore, inpaint, remove_bg
- Add libcublas-12-6 to production Dockerfile for ONNX Runtime CUDA EP
- Add skipIfFeatureNotInstalled guards to remove-bg, blur-faces, smart-crop, ocr, noise-removal e2e specs
- Add AI tool install prompt detection in tools-all.spec.ts
- Add smart-crop to PYTHON_SIDECAR_TOOLS so frontend shows install prompt correctly
- Create Dockerfile.test.dockerignore to include tests/ in test image builds
- Add libheif-examples and exiftool to Dockerfile.test for HEIC and metadata tests
- Regenerate visual regression baselines for Docker/Linux and skip on non-Docker platforms
- Fix NameError in restore.py: face enhancement loop used undefined
variable `i`, now uses enumerate()
- Fix gpu.py ONNX fallback: previous smoke-test with empty bytes
always raised, making GPU detection unreachable via the ONNX path.
Now uses nvidia-smi hardware check after confirming CUDA EP is
compiled in — works on Linux, Windows, and gracefully fails on macOS
- Fix cpu_fallback_packages stripping CUDA-specific index URLs when
replacing paddlepaddle-gpu with paddlepaddle for CPU-only systems

- Pin torch==2.6.0+cu126 and torchvision==0.21.0+cu126 in feature
manifest to prevent NCCL symbol mismatch on CUDA 12.6 base images
- Move lpips after torch in install order to prevent wrong version
resolution from PyPI
- Add einops to upscale-enhance common deps (required by SCUNet)
- Update cpu_fallback_packages to handle multi-package CUDA torch
entries on amd64 without GPU
- Fix gpu.py ONNX CUDA detection: replace hardcoded .so path with
cross-platform session smoke-test
- Fix os.dup(1) crashes on Windows in upscale, enhance_faces, and
noise_removal by wrapping in try/except with sys.stderr fallback
- Guard top-level numpy/cv2 imports in colorize.py and restore.py
with helpful error messages
- Add weights_only=False fallback for torch.load in noise_removal
- Fix integration tests to accept 501 for uninstalled AI features
and 422 for missing system tools (exiftool, libheif)

The on-demand feature download system stores models at /data/ai/models/
(set via MODELS_PATH env var), but all Python scripts hardcoded
/opt/models/ as the base path. Each script now reads MODELS_PATH and
falls back to /opt/models for backward compatibility.
- Added model mismatch warnings in colorize, enhance-faces, and upscale routes.
- Improved error handling in colorize, enhance_faces, remove_bg, restore, and upscale scripts with detailed logging.
- Updated Dockerfile to align NCCL versions for compatibility.
- Introduced a new full tool audit script to test all tools for functionality and GPU usage.
- Created Playwright E2E tests for GPU-dependent tools to ensure proper functionality and performance.
MediaPipe >= 0.10.30 removed the mp.solutions namespace. This broke
face blur, face enhance, red-eye removal, and photo restoration for
users running newer mediapipe versions (closes#43).
All 5 Python scripts that use mediapipe now try the legacy mp.solutions
API first and fall back to the new mp.tasks API on AttributeError.
Model files (blaze_face_short_range.task, face_landmarker.task) are
pre-downloaded during Docker build into /opt/models/mediapipe/ so the
image works fully airgapped. Local dev auto-downloads to .models/.

Add comprehensive photo restoration tool that chains multiple AI models:
- Scratch/tear/spot detection via morphological analysis (top-hat/black-hat transforms)
- Damage inpainting via LaMa ONNX model (reuses existing infrastructure)
- Face enhancement via CodeFormer ONNX (~377MB, from facefusion/models-3.0.0)
- Noise reduction via OpenCV NLMeans in LAB color space
- Optional B&W auto-colorization via DDColor (reuses existing model)
Settings: 3 restoration modes (Light/Auto/Heavy), individual feature toggles
for scratch removal, face enhancement (with fidelity slider), denoising
(with strength slider), and auto-colorize. Before/after comparison view.
Handles HEIC, HEIF, and all standard formats. Batch processing supported.
No new Python dependencies - reuses onnxruntime, cv2, mediapipe, PIL.
