The visible-mark path had grown three copies of one ladder sweep, four
near-identical `detect` arms, and four hand-rolled `footprint_mask` overrides;
mark knowledge sat in five hand-maintained tables across three modules; and the
flagship `all`/`batch` pipeline existed only in cli.py, written twice with
divergent behavior.
Detection is now one measurement. `_ladder_best` replaces the three sweeps,
`_scan`/`_verdict` replace the four arms, and the winning box travels to the
mask on `TextMarkDetection.match_box` instead of being swept a second time.
`detect_both` returns the strict and relaxed verdicts from one scan, which
halves the arbiter's perception cost (260 -> 130 matchTemplate calls on a 2048²
image, verdicts identical field for field). A per-mark demotion goes in the new
`_post_gate` hook, never in a `detect` override -- an override is invisible to
the single-pass path, which is how the RunningHub and Yuanbao anchor gates
briefly stopped applying.
Everything about a mark is now one registry row: product, label regime, the
platform sentence `identify` reports, the metadata signals that confirm it, and
its TC260 producer codes. `identify._VISIBLE_MARK_PLATFORM`, the signal mapping
in `api.visible_provenance`, `_PRODUCT_OF` and the pill veto are derived from
those rows.
`api.remove_all` / `api.remove_batch` are the library form of the `all` and
`batch` commands; the CLI is a wrapper that owns console text and exit codes.
Progress is a `(stage, detail)` pair of stable tokens, so the CLI keys its
wording off structure rather than parsing the library's prose back.
Two intentional behavior changes, both verified against a recorded 811-image
sample of detector verdicts, removal-mask hashes, arbiter decisions and
`identify` reports:
* A TC260 label now relaxes the vendor its `ContentProducer` names rather than
ByteDance's pair on every China-AIGC image. 333 of 811 samples move; on 185
of them the previously relaxed pair was simply the wrong vendor, and the
mark actually present never reached the relaxed gate its own
`provenance_ncc_factor` was calibrated for.
* A confident LibLibAI detection suppresses the Jimeng pill, like every other
TC260 product's mark. It was registered alongside RunningHub and Baidu, both
of which were added to the hand-written veto list, and it was not. 1 sample
moves, and it is exactly the co-firing case.
Nothing else in that record changes: detector verdicts, mask hashes and
`identify` verdicts are byte-identical, and all 200 calibration constants are
untouched.
Also: `aigc_label` and friends plus `extract_c2pa_info` are memoized on
(path, mtime_ns, size) -- size because this package rewrites in place; the
native TC260 container readers route on magic bytes instead of the file
extension, so a mislabeled AVI or FLV is no longer invisible; `identify` shares
one pixel decode between the DWT-DCT and visible stages (TrustMark keeps its own
Pillow decode, which is not substitutable); and the six `stabilize_*` video
wrappers collapse into one policy table.

erase_migan fed the whole frame to the ONNX model, so peak RSS scaled with the
upload (~0.6 GB at 4 MP up to ~2.4 GB at 25 MP). Mirror erase_lama: crop a padded
region around the mask (pad = max(256, 2*bbox)), feed only that crop (at native
resolution -- MI-GAN accepts arbitrary dims, unlike LaMa's fixed 512 square), and
paste only masked pixels back. Peak RSS is now bounded by the mark size
(~0.6-0.9 GB), so a memory-tight host (a 1-2 GB web worker) can run MI-GAN on a
25 MP upload.
Fill quality is unchanged: verified by eye on real Gemini/Doubao marks plus a
ground-truth reconstruction sweep -- a tighter view if anything reduces the GAN's
hallucination of large background structure.
Extract the shared padded-crop-box math into _padded_crop_box (used by both
erase_lama and erase_migan).

- Candidate carries only the fields the arbiter reads (key, label,
detected_strict, detected_relaxed, features); location/region/confidence were
vestigial from the removed best_auto_mark max-by-confidence path.
- resolve_backend returns preferred_inpaint_backend() directly (typed Literal)
instead of an identity ternary.
- colour/normalise/behaviour -> US spelling across code comments and docs.
No behavior change.

- Add the Jimeng-basic top-left "AI生成" pill as a CAPTURE-LESS mark
(pill_engine.py): synthetic-silhouette edge-NCC detect + inpaint-only removal.
Gated in remove_auto_marks: kept only when Jimeng is confirmed (TC260 metadata
OR the bottom-right "★ 即梦AI" wordmark fired -- the wordmark keeps recall on
metadata-STRIPPED uploads) AND Doubao did not fire.
- Add an inpaint-fallback removal path + MI-GAN ONNX backend (migan extra, MIT,
~28 MB / ~1 GB peak -- droplet-friendly) alongside big-LaMa. New
--method auto|reverse-alpha|inpaint (shared across visible/all/batch) and
erase --backend migan; footprint_mask on each engine.
- auto is deterministic: reverse-alpha for capture marks (recovers exact pixels,
lighter -- measured cleaner than MI-GAN on structured backgrounds) and inpaint
only for the capture-less pill.
- --mark auto now removes EVERY detected mark in one pass (remove_auto_marks),
so a Jimeng-basic image's top-left pill AND bottom-right wordmark both clear.
- Bump 0.12.1 -> 0.13.0.

Three P2 cleanups from a library-wide review.
Detection -- single C2PA_AI_VENDORS registry (noai/constants.py):
- C2PA_ISSUERS, SYNTHID_C2PA_ISSUERS, and identify._ISSUER_PLATFORM now derive
from one C2paAiVendor table, so adding a C2PA vendor is one entry instead of
edits in three places across two files. Behavior-identical (262 detection
tests pass; the kept `needle` field is load-bearing -- it differs from `org`
for Google and ByteDance, with no mechanical derivation).
Code-health:
- region_eraser.erase_lama now accepts grayscale/BGRA like erase_cv2 (it
crashed on grayscale and silently dropped alpha on BGRA). +2 regression tests.
- batch frees the device cache between images via a shared try_empty_device_cache
helper (generalized from the MPS-only _try_clear_mps_cache, now reused by both
the MPS->CPU fallback and the batch loop).
- batch gained --controlnet-scale (parity with invisible/all).
CI / packaging:
- publish.yml uploads via `uv publish` (PyPI trusted publishing over OIDC),
replacing pypa/gh-action-pypi-publish so uploads no longer depend on that
action's bundled twine accepting the Metadata-Version. Workflow filename +
pypi environment unchanged, so PyPI's trusted-publisher entry still matches.
- hatchling pin relaxed <1.28 -> <1.31 (verified against hatch's changelog:
1.30.0 made Metadata 2.5 the default, 1.30.1 reverted to 2.4; 1.27-1.29 were
always 2.4). Kept as belt-and-suspenders so the first uv-publish release ships
2.4, isolating the uploader swap from the metadata-version bump.
Docs (CLAUDE.md, pyproject) synced; corrected the inaccurate "hatchling 1.28+
emits 2.5" note.

Apply fixes from a full-repo review (code, tests, docs).
Security / correctness:
- Clamp attacker-controlled PNG/caBX chunk lengths to the remaining file
size in metadata.py and noai/c2pa.py (a malformed length no longer drives
a multi-GB read); skipped chunks seek instead of read.
- noai/isobmff.strip_c2pa_boxes is now fail-safe on a malformed box: return
the original bytes with a warning instead of silently truncating the tail,
so metadata --remove can no longer emit a corrupt file.
- doubao_engine._fixed_alpha_map clamps the glyph box to the image (no crash
on degenerate width-vs-height).
- watermark_remover._run_region_hires gates the phaseCorrelate offset on
response and magnitude (a spurious shift no longer garbles text) and drops
the generator after a CPU fallback (no MPS/CPU device mismatch).
Robustness:
- gemini_engine, doubao_engine, region_eraser normalize grayscale and RGBA
inputs to BGR at the engine entry points.
- image_io.imwrite returns False on an unwritable path (matches cv2).
- invisible_engine guards a None imread result before use.
- trustmark_detector._decoder uses a double-checked threading lock.
- ctrlregen.tiling.tile_positions raises on overlap >= tile.
- humanizer chromatic shift no longer wraps opposite-edge pixels.
- identify OpenAI caveat keyed on the normalized vendor, not a substring.
- Remove the dead "visible --detect-threshold" CLI option.
- publish.yml verifies the release tag matches the package version.
Docs:
- README strength 0.05 to 0.10; .env.example HF_TOKEN marked optional;
doubao_capture README updated to reverse-alpha-only; CLAUDE.md synced with
the new behaviors and the batch command.
Tests: new test_security_clamp.py for the read clamp and isobmff fail-safe;
erase CLI coverage; integrity-clash rule 2 end-to-end; multi-tag EXIF
survival and cross-format strip guards; channel/size, tiling, humanizer, and
imwrite regressions. Full suite 493 passed, 2 skipped; ruff and pyright src/
clean.

Make `pyright src/` strict-clean via a hybrid: pure-logic files are fully typed
(piexif gets a local typings/ stub; PIL info-dict loops guard isinstance(key, str);
progress returns Callable[..., None]; availability checks use importlib.util.find_spec
instead of unused imports), while the irreducibly-untyped cv2/torch/diffusers boundary
files carry a documented per-file `# pyright:` relax pragma (or a ctrlregen
executionEnvironment) that disables only the unknown-type rules. Public ndarray-returning
signatures on the relaxed engines are annotated NDArray[Any] so strict consumers (cli.py)
stay clean.

Add deterministic, CPU-only removal of the visible Doubao "豆包AI生成" mark and
a position-agnostic region eraser for any other visible watermark/logo.
- doubao_engine.py: locate (geometry, scales with width) + polarity-aware
white-top-hat glyph mask + cv2 inpaint; coverage-gated detection and a
dense-text safety guard. No GPU, ~30ms.
- region_eraser.py + `erase` command: inpaint arbitrary --region box(es).
Default cv2 backend (no deps); optional big-LaMa via onnxruntime (`lama`
extra, Carve/LaMa-ONNX, model downloaded on first use, never bundled).
- cli `visible --mark auto|gemini|doubao`: auto routes by detector confidence.
- tests for both engines; seed previously-unseeded CLI image fixtures to stop
the Doubao detector flaking on random corners.
- .gitignore: doubao_capture/{seeds,captures} scratch (alpha-map calibration).
