assessment (current effective DPI, needed upscale factor, AI vs Lanczos note)
- Add "Prepare for Print..." to Image menu above "Fit to Frame..."
https://claude.ai/code/session_01WVDg7amsy1TTtxvpku7bcM
Backend (3 new endpoints under /api/image/):
- POST /api/image/scale-selection — scale selected object by any % in-place;
LaMa/OpenCV fills the exposed gap so the scene looks natural
- POST /api/image/ai-edit-region — AI redraws the masked region via the
configured inpaint provider (local_gpu / InvokeAI / ComfyUI / OpenAI)
- POST /api/image/paste-into-selection — scales clipboard image to fit the
selection bounding box, masks it to the selection shape, composites result
Frontend (selection_actions.js + tool integration):
- New SelectionActions panel: fixed bottom-center HUD that appears
automatically after every SAM selection (click or paint)
- Panel actions: Scale by % (default 3%), Make less symmetrical (AI),
custom AI Edit prompt, Replace with clipboard, Copy/Cut to layer, Erase
- Both smart_select.js and brush_select.js updated to show the panel,
add updateLayerWithResult(), and hide panel on clearSelection/on_leave
- brush_select: offerFloatSelection() replaced with richer action panel
Real-world workflows now supported in one click after painting over object:
"Make this 3% bigger" → scale-selection (LaMa fills gap)
"Make this less symmetrical" → ai-edit-region with asymmetry prompt
"Replace this with what I copied" → paste-into-selection
https://claude.ai/code/session_01WVDg7amsy1TTtxvpku7bcM
Model selection:
- Add sdxl_offload tier (eff_vram ≥ 4.0 GB) for GTX 1060 6GB and Quadro
6GB cards that were falling through to SD 2.1 despite SDXL fitting with
model_cpu_offload. Cards with 5.3 GB effective VRAM now get SDXL quality.
- Update _tier_label(), _caps(), _build_warnings() for new tier.
Frontend GPU display:
- api.js: add getGpuStatus() fetching /api/gpu/status
- capabilities.js: add getGpuStatus() export with own LRU cache;
refreshCapabilities() now also resets GPU status cache
- provider-badge.js: when AI_PROVIDER=local_gpu show green badge with
GPU name, tier, VRAM, CC, feature flags, and capabilities in tooltip.
Strip "NVIDIA GeForce" prefix so "GTX 1060 6GB" fits in badge.
- ai_provider_settings.js: add local_gpu to all provider dropdowns;
show GPU info panel (device, VRAM, CC, features, tier, model table per
operation) in the settings dialog when a GPU is detected.
https://claude.ai/code/session_01WVDg7amsy1TTtxvpku7bcM
sklearn was not installed in the container, causing ModuleNotFoundError on
import of ai_tools.py and preventing the server from starting.
Replaced with a self-contained numpy k-means++ implementation:
- k-means++ seeding for better initial centers
- 20-iteration Lloyd's algorithm
- Same output: hex colors sorted by cluster frequency
No new dependencies required.
https://claude.ai/code/session_01B58MaJCU1R6KwBDJCp8AfN
Auto-Enhance (Image menu):
POST /api/enhance — gray-world white balance, CLAHE contrast on L channel,
saturation boost ×1.15 in HSV, unsharp mask; all blended by strength slider
Frontend: strength selector (25/50/75/100%), keep-original option
Extract Color Palette (Image menu):
POST /api/extract-colors — k-means on 150×150 thumbnail, returns N dominant
colors sorted by cluster size. Frontend: floating swatch panel, click=copy
hex, shift+click=set as active color, toggle on/off.
History Panel (Edit menu, Ctrl+H):
Pure frontend — reads app.State.action_history and action_history_index,
renders clickable list of past actions (newest first), click any step to
undo/redo to that point. Auto-refreshes every 800ms while open.
Align to Canvas (Layer menu):
Floating toolbar with 7 alignment buttons: center H, center V, center both,
align left/right/top/bottom edges. Uses Update_layer_action for undo support.
Add Text (Generate menu):
6 styled presets (Heading, Subheading, Body, Caption, Quote, Bold Label)
shown as live-rendered previews in the dialog. Click a preset to insert a
text layer with the correct font/size/weight/color pre-applied.
https://claude.ai/code/session_01B58MaJCU1R6KwBDJCp8AfN
Backend:
- sam_service.py: auto-downloads SAM ViT-B (~375 MB) on first use with
progress tracking; loads model to CUDA/MPS/CPU; predict_points() takes
multi-point prompts (include/exclude labels) and returns best mask
- POST /api/segment/point: SAM point-prompt endpoint; returns mask PNG
- GET /api/segment/install-status: poll download progress
- POST /api/segment/install: explicit trigger (also auto on first click)
- main.py: pre-download SAM on startup alongside NCNN
Frontend (ai_edit.js):
- Click mode (default): click object → SAM generates mask instantly
Alt+click → subtract (deselect over-selected area)
Multiple clicks accumulate for multi-object or refinement
- Brush + / Brush − modes: paint to add or erase from SAM mask by hand
- If SAM model is still downloading on first click: inline progress bar,
user retries the click when done
- Unified action bar: Erase | Replace (inline prompt) | Upscale | Expand | Clear
- All modes share the same mask canvas; SAM and brush are fully composited
https://claude.ai/code/session_01B58MaJCU1R6KwBDJCp8AfN
- Add _vulkan_available(): checks /dev/dri/renderD* on Linux, assumes
true on macOS/Windows; set REALESRGAN_NCNN=force to override
- Add _test_ncnn_binary(): test-runs the binary after install and checks
stderr for "no vulkan" — marks skipped if Vulkan init fails at runtime
- ensure_ncnn_installed() now returns early with state=skipped when no
Vulkan detected, avoiding a wasted ~30MB download on CPU-only servers
- Recommend PyTorch CPU when available on headless (AI quality, slow but
works); Lanczos as final fallback
- Frontend: handle state=skipped immediately (no polling needed), show
brief informational toast; show "Headless server" note in dialog
https://claude.ai/code/session_01B58MaJCU1R6KwBDJCp8AfN
- upscale.py: add InstallStatus dataclass + ensure_ncnn_installed() async
function that downloads and extracts the NCNN binary for the current
platform (Linux/macOS/Windows), tracks progress (0-100%), and busts the
caps cache when done
- main.py: trigger ensure_ncnn_installed() as a background task on app
startup when no AI upscaler is detected
- print_tools.py: /upscale/available triggers install task when no AI
upscaler found; new GET /upscale/install-status endpoint for polling
- upscale.js: if no AI upscaler on open, poll install-status showing a
progress bar notification, then refresh caps and proceed when done
https://claude.ai/code/session_01B58MaJCU1R6KwBDJCp8AfN
Detection priority (probed once, cached):
1. Real-ESRGAN PyTorch + CUDA GPU → fastest, best quality
2. Real-ESRGAN PyTorch + Apple MPS → fast on Apple Silicon
3. Real-ESRGAN NCNN Vulkan binary → fast on any GPU via Vulkan (no CUDA needed)
4. Real-ESRGAN PyTorch CPU → works, slow (warned in UI)
5. Lanczos → always available, instant fallback
Backend:
- services/upscale.py: full capability probe (probe_upscale_capabilities),
implementations for PyTorch (CUDA/MPS/CPU auto-device) and NCNN binary,
upscale_sync() resolves method with fallback chain,
async upscale_image() runs in thread pool
- print_tools.py: /api/print/upscale uses new service; method="auto" by default;
GET /api/print/upscale/available returns full capability map with device info
and recommended_label; POST /api/print/upscale/refresh-caps busts cache
without restart (useful after installing NCNN binary into container)
Frontend:
- upscale.js: fetches capability map on first open; builds method selector showing
only available options; labels recommended method with ★; shows device info
(CUDA/MPS/CPU/NCNN) in dialog; maps display label back to method key on submit;
shows actual method used in success toast and undo history entry
Scripts:
- scripts/download_realesrgan.py: downloads NCNN Vulkan binary for current platform
(Linux/macOS/Windows) to /app/data/models/realesrgan/; makes executable;
run inside container or locally
https://claude.ai/code/session_01B58MaJCU1R6KwBDJCp8AfN
Backend — new /api/print/* router:
- POST /api/print/frame-fit: fit image to 4x6/5x7/8x10/11x14/16x20/20x24/24x36
and square sizes (4x4/8x8/12x12) at configurable DPI.
Three modes:
crop — center-crop to aspect ratio, Lanczos scale to print res (no AI)
extend — scale to fill one dimension, AI-inpaint the gap; mirror-fill fallback
smart — auto: extend if gap < 15% of frame dimension, else crop
Auto-detects orientation from image shape; respects explicit portrait/landscape.
- POST /api/print/upscale: Lanczos scale (always) or Real-ESRGAN (if installed)
- GET /api/print/frame-sizes: frame catalogue with pixel dimensions at 300dpi
- GET /api/print/upscale/available: reports whether Real-ESRGAN is installed
Frontend:
- modules/image/frame_fit.js: dialog with frame size, orientation, mode, DPI,
optional extend prompt; shows current image size; result as new layer option
- modules/image/upscale.js: dialog with scale factor (1.5–4×), method selector
(auto-hides AI option if Real-ESRGAN not available); result as new layer option
- config-menu.js: Fit to Frame... and Upscale... added under Image menu
https://claude.ai/code/session_01B58MaJCU1R6KwBDJCp8AfN
Each operation (inpaint, txt2img, img2img, outpaint) can now use a different
provider. Resolution order: per-op override → global AI_PROVIDER default.
Example: txt2img→openai, inpaint→invokeai, everything else→invokeai default.
Backend:
- config.py: add AI_PROVIDER_INPAINT / TXT2IMG / IMG2IMG / OUTPAINT settings
- remote_provider.py: get_remote_provider(operation) resolves override then default;
_build_provider() extracted as shared factory; _OP_FIELD maps op→setting name
- ai_tools.py: each endpoint passes its operation to _require_remote();
GET /api/config runs per-op health checks concurrently, returns operations map
and overrides; POST /api/config accepts and applies per-op override fields
Frontend:
- ai_provider_settings.js: four new selects (inpaint/txt2img/img2img/outpaint);
persists to localStorage and sends per-op fields to POST /api/config
- provider-badge.js: shows override summary (e.g. "invokeai · txt2img→openai")
and per-op health in tooltip
- .env.example: document per-op override env vars with examples
https://claude.ai/code/session_01B58MaJCU1R6KwBDJCp8AfN

- modules/tools/ai_provider_settings.js: in-app provider config (OpenAI / InvokeAI /
ComfyUI / Replicate); persists to localStorage, pushes to POST /api/config at runtime
- config.js: register ai_replace_selection tool
- config-menu.js: add Generate menu (Text→Image, Outpaint); AI Provider Settings under Tools
- modules/help/about.js: updated credits (LaMa, rembg, SAM, InvokeAI, ComfyUI, OpenAI)
- api/capabilities.js: add refreshCapabilities() for post-save cache invalidation
Backend:
- routers/ai_tools.py: POST /api/config — apply provider settings at runtime
without restart (session-scoped, non-persistent; .env for permanence)

scikit-image 0.26+ (required by rembg) needs numpy 2.x compatible
packages. Updated torch from 2.1.2 to 2.4+ and torchvision from
0.16.2 to 0.19+ which officially support numpy 2.x.
https://claude.ai/code/session_01MYpjNQXD1fZE4gCweGU4QQ
rembg>=2.0.70 requires scikit-image>=0.26.0, which conflicted with
the pinned scikit-image==0.22.0. Instead of pinning specific versions,
let pip resolve compatible versions automatically based on rembg's
requirements.
Also removed numpy pin as it may conflict with torch/rembg dependencies
- pip will select a compatible version.
https://claude.ai/code/session_01MYpjNQXD1fZE4gCweGU4QQ
rembg 2.0.70+ requires Pillow>=12.1.0,<13.0.0 which conflicted with
the pinned Pillow==10.2.0. Updated to use the version range that
satisfies rembg while remaining compatible with scikit-image and
torchvision (both have no upper bound on Pillow).
https://claude.ai/code/session_01MYpjNQXD1fZE4gCweGU4QQ

- Reusable across all projects
- Consistent emotional weight in carvings
- No AI regeneration - just intelligent copy/paste/blend
- Perfect for CNC workflow (colored preview → grayscale → carve)
The patch library system uses PIL/OpenCV for image compositing,
NOT AI regeneration, so it preserves exact carved geometry.
