The native-vs-downscale decision in InvisibleEngine.remove_watermark (the
issue #10/#15 fix: max_resolution=0 must not pre-downscale, since any
downscale both loses quality and lets SynthID survive) had no test. Extract
it into a pure helper invisible_engine._target_size(w, h, max_resolution)
and cover it with tests/test_invisible_engine.py::TestTargetSize so a
re-introduced forced downscale fails CI instead of silently regressing #15.
Also:
- Clamp the short side to >=1 in _target_size: extreme aspect ratios (e.g.
5000x3 with --max-resolution 1024) truncated it to 0 and crashed
image.resize(). Pre-existing in the inline math; fixed now that it is a
named, tested function.
- Consolidate the two duplicated temp-file save blocks into one
unconditional save (behavior unchanged: the EXIF-transposed image is
still always persisted before WatermarkRemover reloads it by path), and
drop the now-redundant `_tmp_path is not None` guard in finally.
- Bump version 0.5.3 -> 0.5.4 (pyproject, __init__, uv.lock); document the
helper as the regression guard in CLAUDE.md.

- feat(identify): detect the China TC260 <TC260:AIGC> XMP label (Doubao
and other China-served generators); reports platform + ContentProducer.
Removal already strips it via the existing metadata cleaner.

- fix(invisible): process at native resolution by default; the forced
downscale-to-1024 -> upscale-back round-trip was the main quality loss
(#10). Matches the raiw.cc backend (fal fast-sdxl = sdxl-base-1.0).
New --max-resolution opt-in cap for GPU/MPS memory.
- docs: verified fal checkpoint, native-res, gpt-image-2 SynthID.

Research found one locally-fillable detection gap: Stable Diffusion, SDXL,
and FLUX all embed an open DWT-DCT watermark via the invisible-watermark
(imwatermark) library -- a PUBLIC decoder, no secret key, unlike SynthID.
New invisible_watermark.py decodes the known fixed patterns (verified
against upstream source: diffusers SDXL WATERMARK_MESSAGE, FLUX.2
src/flux2/watermark.py, and the 'StableDiffusionV1' default string) and
identify() reports the scheme as a high-confidence signal.
Verified locally end-to-end: embedding SDXL's exact 48-bit message and
decoding it back recovers 48/48 bits; a clean image and our own fal-SDXL
outputs decode to ~21/48 (no match). Caveat baked into the report: the
watermark is fragile -- gone after JPEG q90 -- so it confirms origin only
on pristine files; absence is never proof.
imwatermark is an optional dep (extra 'detect'; pulls non-headless opencv),
so the import is guarded and the signal is skipped when absent. CLI
--no-visible now means metadata-only (skips both pixel-domain detectors).
Also records the broader watermarking landscape in CLAUDE.md: which
services are locally detectable (SD/SDXL/FLUX), C2PA-covered (Bing/Canva/
Getty/Shutterstock unsampled), or proprietary-only like SynthID (Amazon
Titan/Nova, Kakao). Midjourney embeds neither C2PA nor an invisible mark.

- Bump diffusers minimum to 0.38.0 (closes GHSA-98h9-4798-4q5v).
- Refresh uv.lock to pull urllib3 2.7.0 (closes GHSA-qccp-gfcp-xxvc and
GHSA-mf9v-mfxr-j63j via transitive update from requests / huggingface-hub).
- Allow pre-releases globally (`[tool.uv] prerelease = "allow"`) because
diffusers 0.38.0 declares a dependency on safetensors>=0.8.0rc0. Drop
once safetensors 0.8.0 stable is published or diffusers re-pins.
uv-secure --ignore-unfixed now reports zero vulnerabilities.

Reverse alpha blending applied at the assumed default position painted
a visible inverse-sparkle artifact onto clean or edited images. The
function now returns an unmodified copy when detection fails, instead
of falling back to the hardcoded Gemini corner. Bump to 0.3.5.

- metadata --check now shows claim_generator, c2pa_spec, digital_source_type,
c2pa_actions, signer instead of empty table for C2PA-only files
- reuses existing extract_c2pa_chunk() from noai/c2pa.py — no more duplicate
PNG chunk parsing or full-file reads
- adds data/samples/openai-images-2/amur-leopard.png: real gpt-image-2 output
with C2PA manifest signed by OpenAI OpCo LLC / Trufo CA (spec 2.2.0)
- removes stale data/samples/nano-banana-1/2.png (no longer referenced)
- updates README: new Images 2.0 row in supported models table
- documents known text-degradation limitation in CLAUDE.md

- Remove opencv-python from [gpu] extra (conflicts with headless in base deps)
- Add graceful fallback in 'invisible' and 'all' commands when GPU deps missing
- Cache InvisibleEngine in batch mode (avoid reloading model per image)
- Fix --humanize help text (was '0.0-1.0', actual range is 0-6.0+)
- Fix stale docstring referencing non-existent [invisible] extra
- Add [gpu] extra install instructions to README
- Fix broken NeuralBleach placeholder URL in Credits
Move torch, diffusers, transformers, accelerate, controlnet-aux,
ultralytics, and safetensors into [project.optional-dependencies.gpu].
Core install now only includes lightweight deps (~20 MB vs ~1 GB):
pillow, piexif, numpy, opencv-python-headless, click, rich.
This allows web apps using fal.ai cloud GPU to skip installing
1+ GB of ML packages, reducing Docker images from 3 GB to ~300 MB
and deploy times from 14 minutes to ~3-4 minutes.
Usage:
pip install remove-ai-watermarks # core only (visible + metadata)
pip install remove-ai-watermarks[gpu] # full local GPU support
pip install remove-ai-watermarks[all] # gpu + dev tools
