**Loaded models**

| Role | File |
|------|------|
| GGUF LLM | `Qwen-Rapid-NSFW-v23_Q8_0.gguf` |

- `NODE_KSAMPLER` — sampler params (Euler/karras, seed, steps, CFG)
- `image1` — reference image (base64 uploaded to ComfyUI `/upload/image`)
- `image2` — optional wireframe pose guide (extracted from wireframe video)

---

### 2. FastAPI API — `:8500`

- **Script**: `tour-comfy/edit_api.py`
- **Systemd**: `comfyui-api`
- **DB**: PostgreSQL at `192.168.1.160:5433`, database `dv`, table `person`

#### In-Memory File Metadata Cache

To mitigate performance and network latency bottlenecks on remote/shared storage filesystems (e.g. `/mnt/zim`), the API server employs a light, thread-safe in-memory metadata cache (`_file_meta_cache`):
- **Cached Items**: File existence (`exists`) and modification timestamps (`mtime`) mapped by `filename`.
- **Cache TTL**: 5.0 seconds.
- **Idempotency & Invalidation**: Any mutation endpoints (such as crop, padding, duplication, background removal, or deletion) automatically update (`_update_cached_file_meta`) or explicitly delete (`_clear_cached_file_meta`) entries to keep cache and disk perfectly in sync.
- **Preloading Optimization**: Leverages cache queries in static indexing loops (`_sync_preloaded_images`, `_write_all_static`, `list_images`) and tracks changes to completely skip redundant static HTML rewrites if the preloaded image set is identical (`_last_preloaded_images_set`).

## Generation Pipeline (`_run_pipeline`)

```
prompt
  │
  ├─ "transparent background" keywords detected?
  │     YES → strip keywords from Qwen prompt (keeps `is_transparent` flag)
  │            set negative: "deformed anatomy, watermark, logo"
  │
  ├─ Canvas Expansion / Outpainting requested?
  │     YES → if outpaint=True:
  │             ├─ If source is transparent (RGBA): composite onto flat black background for maximum contrast.
  │             ├─ Formulate dynamic prompt description: e.g. "replacing the black/white background areas"
  │             └─ Append outpainting prompt instructions: "Naturally outpaint and extend..."
  │
  ├─ Upload reference image(s) to ComfyUI /upload/image
  │     image1 = source image (composited RGB if outpainting transparent images)
  │     image2 = wireframe pose guide frame (optional)
  │
  ├─ Patch workflow graph nodes (prompt, size, seed, sampler)
  ├─ POST to ComfyUI /prompt  →  poll /history until done
  ├─ Fetch PNG from ComfyUI /view
  │
  └─ is_transparent?
       YES → _apply_transparency_sam2(png_bytes)
              ├─ SAM2 point-prompt segmentation
              │    FG: 12 points (hair→shoes, lateral spread for ¾ poses)
              │    BG: 7 points (corners + edge midpoints)
              │    Coverage check: 5%–92% (else fallback)
              │    Gaussian blur radius=1 for soft edges
              └─ fallback: _apply_transparency (rembg U2Net)
```

---

## Batch Worker (`_batch_worker`)

Runs in a background thread pool. One thread per batch job item.

```
For each (filename, prompt) pair:
  1. Load source image from output dir
  2. If wireframe_ref: extract frame at wireframe_time via OpenCV VideoCapture
  3. Call _run_pipeline(pil, prompt, seed, max_area, extra_images=[wireframe_frame])
  4. Save PNG to output dir (timestamped filename)
  5. upsert_person(new_filename, group_id, prompt, source_refs=[original])
  6. Update job progress dict (polled via /jobs/{id})
```

---

## Camera Angle Presets

Eight absolute + four relative angle prompts defined as `CAMERA_ANGLES` in car.html.  Each triggers a `/batch` request with `pose=null` and the angle prompt injected.

| Name | Direction |
|------|-----------|
| Front | Straight-on frontal |
| ¾ Left / ¾ Right | 45° rotation |
| Side L / Side R | 90° profile |
| Back | Rear view |
| High / Low | Bird's-eye / worm's-eye |
| ↺ 45° / ↻ 45° | Relative +45° left / right |
| ↺ 90° / ↻ 90° | Relative +90° left / right |

---

## Background Removal

Two strategies are available:

### Configurable BG removal — `config.json` key `"bg_removal"`

Set to `"rembg"` (default) or `"sam2"`.

#### `"rembg"` mode
- Strips transparent-related keywords from the Qwen prompt entirely → Qwen renders with a natural real background
- `_apply_transparency` (rembg U2Net) post-processes the result
- Most reliable on complex Qwen-generated backgrounds (streets, shadows, cobblestones, etc.)

#### `"sam2"` mode
- Replaces transparent keywords with `"black background"` in the Qwen prompt → Qwen renders the person against a pure black background
- Negative prompt discourages any real-background content
- `_apply_transparency_sam2` (SAM2 bbox) post-processes: pure black gives maximal contrast → reliable segmentation
- Tested: produces clean full-body mask at ~74% coverage including hair, shoes, and earrings

#### Explicit `"black background"` in prompt
- Regardless of the configured method, always routes to SAM2 — the user has already set up the ideal SAM2 input
- Prompt is passed to Qwen unchanged

#### SAM2 implementation (`_apply_transparency_sam2`)
- Model: `sam2.1_hiera_base_plus.pt` at `~/.sam/sam2.1_hiera_base_plus.pt`
- Bbox `[1%, 1%, 99%, 99%]`, `multimask_output=True`, best-score mask, coverage check 5%–92%, Gaussian edge blur radius=1
- Also called by the explicit `/remove-background-sam/{filename}` endpoint

---

## Face Processing (insightface)

Model: `buffalo_l`

**Faceswap** (`/faceswap`):
- Reads source face from reference image
- Swaps into each frame of a target video via OpenCV
- Optionally runs GFPGAN face restoration post-swap

**Face extraction** (`_extract_face_bg` background task):
- Triggered on `set-preferred` or explicit `extract-face` endpoint
- Detects largest face via insightface, adds padding (50% sides, 200% top headroom)
- Saves as `{group_id}_face.png` in output dir
- DB-registered for display in the studio Info tab face-book thumbnail

---

## Database Schema (`person` table)

| Column | Type | Purpose |
|--------|------|---------|
| filename | TEXT PK | Unique image filename |
| filepath | TEXT | Absolute file path |
| group_id | TEXT | Group membership |
| group_name | TEXT | Human-readable group label |

## Frontend (car.html)

Single-page application (~5000 lines). No build step — pure HTML/CSS/JS.

**Modes**:
- **Gallery** — grid of all groups; click to open Studio
- **Studio** — filmstrip + large viewer + sidebar tabs
- **Database Consistency** (`trash.html` SPA) — dedicated panel for identifying legacy/orphaned records, untracked files, and manual restore/delete of archived assets

**Sidebar tabs**:

| Tab | Purpose |
|-----|---------|
| Generate | Camera angle picker, pose selector (with inline edit/add/delete → `poses.md`), wireframe guide, auto-growing prompt override with history autocomplete, fine-tune textareas, multi-ref thumbnails (click to deselect), batch submit |
| Info | Metadata, preferred toggle, face-book thumbnail, hide/archive/delete, manual crop/expand padding (copy or in-place), rotate ±90°, No-BG / Invert-α, duplicate, Pose preview (draggable + similar-pose search) |
| Faceswap | Source face selector, target video, preview quality toggle |
| Segment | SAM2 and rembg BG removal buttons |
| Scenery | Scenery video reference for generation |

### Key Studio Features

#### Canvas Expansion & Manual Padding (Interactive Tooling)
The **Info** sidebar and dedicated toolbar provide professional, reactive manual padding controls:
- **Percent/Pixel Harmony**: Seamlessly accepts both absolute integer pixel values (e.g., `100px`) and percentage-based inputs (e.g., `10%` or `0.1`), ensuring perfect formatting and suffix preservation.
- **Quick Adjustment Presets**: Rapidly adjust margins with single-click actions for `+10%`, `+20%`, `+50%`, `+100px`, or `Reset` to clear all.
- **Uniform Locking**: Enabling the **Uniform** option synchronizes changes on any single padding field to all four sides simultaneously.
- **Intelligent Previews**: Dynamically renders real-time color-coded canvas border previews based on the selected fill type (Amber dashed for `transparent`, translucent black for `black`, and translucent white for `white`).
- **Shortcuts**: Confirm cropping or padding instantly with `Enter`, or dismiss/cancel the operation using `Escape`.

#### Reactive Layout Optimization
To prevent desyncs during image transitions, crops, canvas expansion, or 2.2x zooming:
- A `ResizeObserver` is registered on the primary studio viewer image (`lbImg`).
- Automatically triggers a layout and geometry recalculation, cleanly and immediately adjusting the background transparency checkerboard grid and padding visual overlays to match the actual visual boundaries of the contained image.

#### Multiple Filmstrips System
The filmstrip bar has been updated with five tabs that filter the group's images dynamically:
- **Group Active**: The default filmstrip containing the main/preferred assets of the group.
- **Group Variant** (`VISIBLE`): Shows all standard visible variants within the group.
- **Hidden** (`HIDDEN`): Soft-hidden variants (excluded from main cycling).
- **Source** (`SOURCE`): Displays reference images explicitly marked as source assets.
- **Archived** (`ARCHIVED`): Displays soft-archived variants.
- **Drag-and-Drop Reclassification**: Users can drag any variant thumbnail from the filmstrip and drop it directly onto any of the tab buttons to instantly update its tag/status and reassign it to that list.

#### Bulk Multi-Select & Actions
Toggling the **Multi-select** button unlocks checkbox-based selection across the filmstrip:
- Provides a live selection counter.
- Enables bulk move/reclassification buttons to dispatch batch updates to `/images/bulk-move` (e.g., `Move to Group`, `Move to Hidden`, `Move to Source`, `Move to Archived`).

#### Seamless Non-Blinking State Updates
To prevent irritating browser reload blinks or blank screen latency during intensive image editing operations:
- **Local Metadata Cloning**: Duplication, manual cropping, padding, and background removal immediately clone the original's DB metadata values locally on the client and splice the new file record into the active filmstrip list.
- **Optimistic Merge**: During periodic background server syncs (`refreshNow`), an optimistic merge algorithm compares the local client-side list and the server JSON. It preserves any freshly created local assets that haven't yet been processed/synced on the backend, maintaining perfect continuity.

## Wireframe Pose Guide

Wireframe videos stored in `/mnt/zim/tour-comfy/wireframe/`.  
The studio Generate tab shows a video picker + time scrubber.  On generation:
1. Backend calls `GET /wireframe/frame/{name}?t=0.5` to extract the chosen frame
2. Frame passed as `image2` in the ComfyUI workflow (second visual reference)
3. No ControlNet installed — Qwen uses the wireframe as a layout hint via `image2` slot

---

## Pose Tools (2D body pose)

A posenet-style toolset built on a feature-detected estimator. Preferred backend is
**rtmlib** (RTMPose, ONNX via the already-installed `onnxruntime`); **mediapipe** is a
fallback. If neither is installed the endpoints return `501` and the UI shows an install hint.

- **Install (A6000 venv):** `~/comfyui/venv/bin/pip install rtmlib`. Models (~150 MB) auto-
  download to `~/.cache/rtmlib` on first use.
- **CUDA libs:** `onnxruntime-gpu` needs the venv's `nvidia-*-cu12` libs on the loader path.
  `a6000-comfy/start_api.sh` adds them to `LD_LIBRARY_PATH` at launch (torch finds them via
  RPATH, onnxruntime does not).

**Output format:** COCO-17 keypoints (`POSE_KEYPOINT_NAMES`) + `POSE_SKELETON` edge list,
returned in image pixels with per-joint score.

**Studio overlay (`car.html`):** the **Pose** button overlays the skeleton on the viewer
(letterbox-aware canvas). Joints are **draggable** to refine/explore a pose. Overlay toolbar:
*Reset* (re-detect) and *Similar pose* (rank the library by the current — possibly edited —
skeleton). Results render as a thumbnail strip; clicking one opens that image's group.

**Similarity model (`edit_api.py`):**
- `_pose_descriptor(keypoints)` → translation/scale-invariant vector: centered on hip midpoint
  (fallback shoulders), scaled by torso length, 17×(x,y) + visibility mask. `None` if < 6 joints.
- `_pose_distance(a, b)` → weighted L2 over jointly-visible joints, taking the min of the direct
  and the **left-right-mirrored** comparison so mirrored poses match.
- **Pose index:** descriptors are cached in `<output>/_data/poses_index.json`. It fills
  incrementally whenever `/images/{f}/pose` runs, or in bulk via `/pose/index` (daemon thread,
  batched writes every 50, progress via `/pose/index/status`).
