Backend:
- Load non-GGUF safetensors models: full bnb-4bit pipelines and single-file
fp8 transformers, gated to the unsloth org plus a curated allowlist.
- Image-conditioned workflows built with Pipeline.from_pipe so they reuse the
loaded transformer/VAE/text-encoder with no extra VRAM: img2img, inpaint,
outpaint, and a hires-fix upscale pass.
- Instruction editing as its own family kind (Qwen-Image-Edit-2511,
FLUX.1-Kontext-dev) and FLUX.2-klein reference conditioning (single and
multi-reference) plus klein inpaint.
- Auto-resize odd-sized inputs to a multiple of 16 (and resize the matched
mask) so img2img/inpaint/edit no longer reject non-/16 uploads. Bound the
decoded image size and cap upscale output to avoid OOM on large inputs.
- Fixes: from_pipe defaulting to a float32 recast that crashed torchao
quantized transformers; image-conditioned calls forcing the slider size
onto the input image. Native sd.cpp engine rejects image-conditioned and
reference requests it cannot serve.
Frontend:
- Redesigned Images page with capability-gated workflow tabs (Create,
Transform, Inpaint, Extend, Upscale, Reference, Edit), a brush mask editor,
client-side outpaint, and a multi-reference picker.
- Advanced options moved to a right-docked panel mirroring Chat: closed by
default, toggled by a single fixed top-bar button that stays in place.
sd.cpp installer: pin the release, verify each download's sha256, add a
download timeout, and make the source repo configurable for a future mirror.
