The Tier E adversarial sweep (new, scripts/robustness_suite.py) drove the real CLI
over truncated, corrupt, zero-byte, absurdly-shaped and bomb inputs, unicode and
RTL paths, hostile output directories and concurrent runs. It found two crashes;
the /simplify review then reproduced a third and worse one.
1. A FAILED WRITE CRASHED ON THE SIZE REPORT. image_io.imwrite is contractually
non-raising and returns False, but write_bgr_with_alpha discarded that bool and
returned None, so no caller could tell a failed write from a successful one.
Every write site then ran output.stat() to print the size, so a read-only
destination died with a bare FileNotFoundError pointing at the stat rather than
the write. The fix is deliberately NOT uniform: single-image commands exit via
the new cli._write_output_or_exit; api._write_visible_result RAISES so a library
caller gets an accurate error instead of a confusing FileNotFoundError from the
downstream metadata strip; and the batch sites raise but never SystemExit,
because the batch loop counts per-image exceptions and aborting would kill the
whole run.
2. BATCH LOST DATA SILENTLY. Into a read-only output directory it wrote ZERO files
for 2 inputs and exited 0 -- no traceback, no error, an empty output directory a
wrapping service would read as a completed run. The robustness harness could not
see this class at all, since it scored exit codes and traceback markers and this
failure has neither; it now asserts on the artifacts written.
3. A DIRECTORY PASSED AS THE IMAGE crashed the metadata scanner with
IsADirectoryError, because click.Path(exists=True) accepts directories. Fixed
with dir_okay=False on all six source arguments, so argument parsing refuses it.
Also adds Tier B4 (scripts/resource_ceilings.py): peak RSS per fill backend from
1 MP to 25 MP, one fresh process per cell. migan 603->775 MB and lama 4679->4779 MB
are flat in input size, confirming the crop-around-the-mask design and both
documented figures; cv2 is the only backend that grows (74->440 MB, 5.9x). The
harness's own no-op check originally allocated a full-frame temp before reading
peak RSS and inflated the numbers with input size -- it now compares only the mask
box, and the conclusion survived re-measurement.
And scripts/real_examples_e2e.py, which drives every command over real corpus
examples and checks the outcome rather than the exit code: 6/6 provenance classes
identified, 10/10 metadata strips re-scan clean, all three fill backends write,
diffusion on MPS writes genuinely changed images. It records samsung as a real
partial (the faintest mark, 0.431 -> 0.404 against a 0.40 gate on the weakest of
its 3 corpus positives) and treats the gated pill's refusal to act as correct.

The faint-mask fallback added for the tophat front-end thresholded the
max-normalized uint8 response at 0.5 -- which selects every non-zero pixel,
not "half the peak" as its comment claimed -- and filled ~120% of the corner
box on textured frames. Measured on 14 real faint-path frames (cv2 fill,
detector re-run after): the detector's own best-match box fills a 58.7%-median
corner box vs 120.9% for the threshold, both 100% detector-clean. Detection and
the mask now read one method, _tophat_best, whose score gates detection and
whose argmax box bounds the fill, so the two cannot drift by construction --
which is how the mismatch arose. The 0.5 constant is deleted.
Parity could not catch this (a mask that fills everything is trivially
detector-clean) and the regression test could not either: its flat fixture
gives every threshold the same box, so mutating the constant to 99.0 stayed
green. The fixture now carries texture and asserts the mask area is bounded,
not merely non-empty; it reproduces the corpus number (127% pre-fix).
Also lands the Tier B2 verification harnesses that found and bounded this:
- detector_response.py: response curves (detected AND maskable per cell); found
the size response is a comb, contrast is near-irrelevant, no unmaskable cells.
- ladder_headroom.py: measured that a denser scale ladder recovers 7.6% of
misses for a 2.52%->3.05% false-fire rise, and the one landscape rung that
helps is a geometry shift that helps and hurts equally (1.7:1) -- do not add.
- cjk_tail_probe.py: a generic shared-tail (AI生成) template does not separate
uncovered vendors from clean corners (0.407 vs clean p99 0.298).
Records the visible-parity re-run confirming the earlier front-end fix (doubao
91.8% -> 99.3%), and dedups the thrice-written stamp forward model into one
fill_quality.composite.
