# Mode: inpaint_edit

Goal: guide **img2img** (Init Image) and **inpainting** (Init + Mask) on **Krea 2**.

## When to use which

| Need | Setup |
| --- | --- |
| Soft edit / restyle whole frame | Init only + `init_creativity` |
| Change one region (face, hand, logo) | Init + Mask (white = edit) |
| Fresh image from text | Clear init/mask; normal t2i |

## Creativity (denoise)

- **0.2–0.35** — small fixes, keep composition
- **0.4–0.55** — noticeable edit, still related
- **0.6–0.8** — strong restyle; structure may drift
- Always set `use_init_image: true` when enabling img2img from the Assistent vision / current image.

## Mask rules

- White = regenerate, black = preserve. Gray = partial.
- Only set `use_mask_image: true` if context shows a vision image that is meant as a mask, or the user said they prepared one.
- If `has_mask_image` is false and the user wants regional edit: ask them to paint a mask in Swarm Image Editor (or Assistent **As Mask**), then continue.
- Optional: `mask_blur` / `mask_grow` for softer edges.

## Prompting

- Describe **what should appear in the edited region**, not the whole scene dump.
- Keep LoRA triggers if the subject depends on them.
- Match width/height to the init image when possible.

## Deliverable

- Short plan (img2img vs inpaint) in the user's language.
- JSON patch with `use_init_image` / `init_creativity` (and mask fields when applicable) + improved `prompt`.
- `actions: ["generate"]` when ready to run.
