The fixed mild auto polish (unsharp 0.5 / grain 2.0) under-corrected soft
photo/face output (gemini_3 stayed at lap-var 84 vs its 592 original) and its
grain speckled small text. Replace it with humanizer.adaptive_polish: target the
input's Laplacian variance with a capped unsharp scaled to the deficit + edge-
masked grain (smooth regions only), calibrated by a short sigma search. Self-
limiting on text/graphics -- already high-frequency, so almost no polish lands
and text edges are masked out. Validated on the spaces corpus (gemini_3 84 -> 334
end-to-end; openai_1 text near-untouched).
Interface: every --auto decision is now independently overridable -- add
--adaptive-polish/--no-adaptive-polish (matching --restore-faces; works without
--auto too) so the polish can be disabled or used manually. _apply_auto overrides
exactly the three content-adaptive modes (pipeline, restore-faces, adaptive-
polish); --unsharp/--humanize stay independent fixed filters.
cv2-only, no new deps. Threaded through invisible/all (not batch).

Two quality knobs for the SDXL invisible pass:
- min_resolution floor (default 1024, --min-resolution): small inputs are
upscaled to a 1024px long-side floor before diffusion, since SDXL img2img
distorts on a tiny latent (a 381x512 portrait wrecks at native). The output
is restored to the original input size, so it is a transparent quality boost;
it adds time/memory on small inputs. 0 disables. Extends the pure _target_size
helper (now cap-or-floor-or-native, min skipped on a min>max misconfig),
unit-tested without a model.
- unsharp post-filter (humanizer.unsharp_mask, --unsharp, opt-in default 0):
applied LAST, after the GFPGAN face pass (a pre-GFPGAN sharpen would be
smoothed back over), to counter the soft/over-smoothed look that diffusion +
restoration leave behind (an AI tell). Pairs with --humanize (grain).
Both threaded through invisible/all/batch + the module-level helper. Verified
end-to-end on a 381x512 portrait: upscaled to 1024, sharpened, restored to
381x512.

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.
