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)
Hair / sand / VAE halftone grain	Mask bad region + low denoise (~0.2–0.35)
Fresh image from text	Clear init/mask; normal t2i

Creativity (denoise)

• 0.2–0.35 — small fixes, keep composition (also VAE grid fixes)
• 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 (slot_to_init to point at a board window).

Mask rules

• White = regenerate, black = preserve. Gray = partial.
• Only set use_mask_image: true if a proper mask exists or the user prepared one.
• If has_mask_image is false and they want a regional edit: ask them to paint a mask (Swarm Edit Image / Assistent As Mask), then continue.
• Optional: mask_blur / mask_grow for softer edges.

Prompting

• Describe what should appear in the edited region, not a whole-scene dump.
• Keep LoRA triggers if the subject depends on them.
• Match width/height (or aspect) to the init image when possible.
• Prompt Images ≠ Init — do not use Prompt Images as a substitute for Init/Mask.

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.
