Landing: - Preload the Bricolage display font (LCP heading) to cut first paint - Cap tool-page meta descriptions at ~160 chars via whole-sentence truncation, so SERP snippets no longer overflow or cut mid-phrase - Drop dead HowTo + FAQPage JSON-LD from tool pages (Google removed HowTo rich results in 2023 and FAQ rich results in 2026); the visible content stays. Breadcrumb + WebApplication schema retained - Shorten 22 tool titles that exceeded the ~60-char SERP limit - Add an optional h1 override to tool SEO data - Rewrite adjust-colors, smart-crop, and ringtone-maker to match real Search Console query intent (saturation; object-aware cropping; convert audio to ringtone), with query-matched H1s and FAQs Docs: - Add meta descriptions to 20 pages missing frontmatter Repo: - Ignore local credential JSON files (.secrets/, *client_secret*, *service_account*)

| Subject-, face-, and entropy-aware cropping that frames images intelligently using Sharp and AI face detection. |
Smart Crop
Smart subject-aware, face-aware, or trim-based cropping. Uses Sharp's attention/entropy strategies and AI face detection for intelligent framing.
API Endpoint
POST /api/v1/tools/image/smart-crop
Processing: Asynchronous (returns 202, poll /api/v1/jobs/{jobId}/progress for status via SSE)
Model bundle: face-detection (200-300 MB) - required only for face mode
Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Required | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| file | file | Yes | - | Image file (multipart) |
| mode | string | No | "subject" |
Crop mode: subject, face, trim. (Legacy values attention and content map to subject and trim) |
| strategy | string | No | "attention" |
Strategy for subject mode: attention or entropy |
| width | integer | No | - | Target width in pixels |
| height | integer | No | - | Target height in pixels |
| padding | integer | No | 0 |
Padding percentage around subject (0-50) |
| facePreset | string | No | "head-shoulders" |
Face framing preset: closeup, head-shoulders, upper-body, half-body |
| sensitivity | number | No | 0.5 |
Face detection sensitivity (0-1) |
| threshold | integer | No | 30 |
Trim mode threshold for background detection (0-255) |
| padToSquare | boolean | No | false |
Pad trimmed result to a square |
| padColor | string | No | "#ffffff" |
Background color for padding |
| targetSize | integer | No | - | Target size for padded output (pixels) |
| quality | integer | No | - | Output quality (1-100) |

Modes
Subject Mode
Uses Sharp's attention or entropy strategy to find the most visually interesting region and crops around it.
Face Mode
Detects faces using AI, then frames the crop around detected faces using the specified facePreset. Falls back to subject mode (attention strategy) if no faces are detected.
Trim Mode
Removes uniform borders/background from the image. Optionally pads the result to a square with a specified background color and target size.
Notes
- This tool uses the
createToolRoutefactory withexecutionHint: "long", so it returns 202 with SSE progress. - Face mode requires the
face-detectionmodel bundle (200-300 MB). - Subject and trim modes work without any AI model bundle.
- The
facePresetdetermines how tightly the crop frames detected faces:closeupis the tightest,half-bodyis the widest. - If no width/height are specified, defaults to 1080x1080.
