Lucide v0.577 dropped Wand2 and Columns from the icons object used
for dynamic lookup. Named exports still exist as aliases, but the
landing site and tools index use icons[name] which fails silently.
Updates shared constants and web app icon-map to use the current names.
- Bump all workspace package versions to 1.17.0
- Update APP_VERSION constant and OpenAPI spec
- Update AI tool count from 15 to 16 across docs and i18n
- Update tool table with AI Canvas Expand, Meme Generator, Beautify
- Add image editor, OIDC, and 20 languages to README features
- Add release notes for v1.17.0
- Add JSON-LD structured data and SEO improvements to landing/docs
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)
- Bump APP_VERSION to 1.15.11 (was hardcoded at 1.15.9, causing
health endpoint to report wrong version in Docker images)
- Fix cpu_fallback_packages() splitting --index-url into separate
pip install arguments, breaking torch install on CPU-only amd64
- 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
Both routes showed "Tool not found" — the UI was never implemented.
Pipeline functionality already lives at /automate (the Automate page).
Also removed the empty Automation category and unused Workflow/FolderInput
icons from icon-map.ts.

* feat(passport-photo): add passport specs database and tool constants
* feat(passport-photo): add MediaPipe FaceMesh landmark detection script
* feat(passport-photo): add TypeScript bridge for face landmark detection
* feat(passport-photo): add API routes with analyze and generate endpoints
* fix(passport-photo): accept landmarks from request body and fix pixel coordinate conversion
- Generate endpoint now accepts landmarks + imageWidth/imageHeight in request body
instead of re-running AI face detection (makes generate phase instant)
- Fixed bug where normalized landmark coordinates (0-1) were used directly
as pixel values in crop computation - now properly multiplied by imgW/imgH
- Fixed same bug in pipeline process function
* feat(passport-photo): add UI component with live preview and compliance overlay

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.

* fix(enhance-faces): address code review findings
- Skip alpha blend for CodeFormer (strength already applied via fidelity weight)
- Hide "only enhance main face" checkbox when Best (CodeFormer) is selected
- Fix sensitivity slider labels (swap More/Fewer faces to match actual behavior)
- Register EnhanceFacesControls in pipeline step settings
- Remove model names from user-facing descriptions
* fix(enhance-faces): fix CodeFormer integration and Docker setup
- Add codeformer-pip install to Dockerfile with --no-deps to avoid numpy 2.x conflict
- Re-pin numpy==1.26.4 after codeformer-pip install
- Pin codeformer-pip==0.0.4 in requirements files
- Broaden auto-mode fallback to catch any Exception from CodeFormer

Add AI-powered photo colorization that converts B&W/grayscale images to
full color using DDColor (ICCV 2023 dual-decoder architecture) via ONNX
Runtime. Includes model selection (Auto/DDColor/Classic), adjustable color
intensity, batch processing, before/after preview, and full HEIC/HEIF support.

* feat(image-enhancement): add analysis and correction types
* feat(image-enhancement): implement auto-enhance analysis and correction engine
* test(image-enhancement): add unit tests for auto-enhance engine
* feat(image-enhancement): add API route with analyze endpoint and register in constants/i18n
* feat(image-enhancement): add UI component with mode selector, intensity slider, and analysis badges
* test(image-enhancement): add integration and e2e tests
* fix(image-enhancement): use modulate instead of gamma for exposure correction
Sharp's gamma() only accepts values between 1.0 and 3.0, but brightening
underexposed images computed gamma < 1.0. Switch to modulate({ brightness })
which handles both brightening and darkening correctly.

Replace the confusing 2-mode smart crop with a clear 3-mode system:
- Subject Focus: Sharp attention/entropy saliency crop with social media presets
- Face Focus: MediaPipe face detection with headshot framing presets
- Auto Trim: Border removal with optional pad-to-square
Adds detectFaces() to AI package, face preset constants, backward
compatibility for old mode names, and comprehensive integration tests.
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
Replace the Python seam-carving library with caire (esimov/caire v1.5.0),
