+## Quick Start
+
+For full installation and upgrade instructions, please see:
+[InvokeAI Installation Overview](https://invoke-ai.github.io/InvokeAI/installation/INSTALLATION/)
+
+If upgrading from version 2.3, please read [Migrating a 2.3 root
+directory to 3.0](#migrating-to-3) first.
+
+### Automatic Installer (suggested for 1st time users)
+
+1. Go to the bottom of the [Latest Release Page](https://github.com/invoke-ai/InvokeAI/releases/latest)
+
+2. Download the .zip file for your OS (Windows/macOS/Linux).
+
+3. Unzip the file.
+
+4. **Windows:** double-click on the `install.bat` script. **macOS:** Open a Terminal window, drag the file `install.sh` from Finder
+into the Terminal, and press return. **Linux:** run `install.sh`.
+
+5. You'll be asked to confirm the location of the folder in which
+to install InvokeAI and its image generation model files. Pick a
+location with at least 15 GB of free memory. More if you plan on
+installing lots of models.
+
+6. Wait while the installer does its thing. After installing the software,
+the installer will launch a script that lets you configure InvokeAI and
+select a set of starting image generation models.
+
+7. Find the folder that InvokeAI was installed into (it is not the
+same as the unpacked zip file directory!) The default location of this
+folder (if you didn't change it in step 5) is `~/invokeai` on
+Linux/Mac systems, and `C:\Users\YourName\invokeai` on Windows. This directory will contain launcher scripts named `invoke.sh` and `invoke.bat`.
+
+8. On Windows systems, double-click on the `invoke.bat` file. On
+macOS, open a Terminal window, drag `invoke.sh` from the folder into
+the Terminal, and press return. On Linux, run `invoke.sh`
+
+9. Press 2 to open the "browser-based UI", press enter/return, wait a
+minute or two for Stable Diffusion to start up, then open your browser
+and go to http://localhost:9090.
+
+10. Type `banana sushi` in the box on the top left and click `Invoke`
+
+### Command-Line Installation (for developers and users familiar with Terminals)
+
+You must have Python 3.10 through 3.11 installed on your machine. Earlier or
+later versions are not supported.
+Node.js also needs to be installed along with yarn (can be installed with
+the command `npm install -g yarn` if needed)
+
+1. Open a command-line window on your machine. The PowerShell is recommended for Windows.
+2. Create a directory to install InvokeAI into. You'll need at least 15 GB of free space:
+
+    ```terminal
+    mkdir invokeai
+    ````
+
+3. Create a virtual environment named `.venv` inside this directory and activate it:
+
+    ```terminal
+    cd invokeai
+    python -m venv .venv --prompt InvokeAI
+    ```
+
+4. Activate the virtual environment (do it every time you run InvokeAI)
+
+    _For Linux/Mac users:_
+
+    ```sh
+    source .venv/bin/activate
+    ```
+
+    _For Windows users:_
+
+    ```ps
+    .venv\Scripts\activate
+    ```
+
+5. Install the InvokeAI module and its dependencies. Choose the command suited for your platform & GPU.
+
+    _For Windows/Linux with an NVIDIA GPU:_
+
+    ```terminal
+    pip install "InvokeAI[xformers]" --use-pep517 --extra-index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu118
+    ```
+
+    _For Linux with an AMD GPU:_
+
+    ```sh
+    pip install InvokeAI --use-pep517 --extra-index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/rocm5.4.2
+    ```
+
+    _For non-GPU systems:_
+    ```terminal
+    pip install InvokeAI --use-pep517 --extra-index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cpu
+    ``` 
+
+    _For Macintoshes, either Intel or M1/M2:_
+
+    ```sh
+    pip install InvokeAI --use-pep517
+    ```
+
+6. Configure InvokeAI and install a starting set of image generation models (you only need to do this once):
+
+    ```terminal
+    invokeai-configure --root .
+    ```
+	Don't miss the dot at the end!
+
+7. Launch the web server (do it every time you run InvokeAI):
+
+    ```terminal
+    invokeai-web
+    ```
+
+8. Point your browser to http://localhost:9090 to bring up the web interface.
+
+9. Type `banana sushi` in the box on the top left and click `Invoke`.
+
+Be sure to activate the virtual environment each time before re-launching InvokeAI,
+using `source .venv/bin/activate` or `.venv\Scripts\activate`.
+
+## Detailed Installation Instructions
+
+This fork is supported across Linux, Windows and Macintosh. Linux
+users can use either an Nvidia-based card (with CUDA support) or an
+AMD card (using the ROCm driver). For full installation and upgrade
+instructions, please see:
+[InvokeAI Installation Overview](https://invoke-ai.github.io/InvokeAI/installation/INSTALL_SOURCE/)
+
+<a name="migrating-to-3"></a>
+### Migrating a v2.3 InvokeAI root directory
+
+The InvokeAI root directory is where the InvokeAI startup file,
+installed models, and generated images are stored. It is ordinarily
+named `invokeai` and located in your home directory. The contents and
+layout of this directory has changed between versions 2.3 and 3.0 and
+cannot be used directly.
+
+We currently recommend that you use the installer to create a new root
+directory named differently from the 2.3 one, e.g. `invokeai-3` and
+then use a migration script to copy your 2.3 models into the new
+location. However, if you choose, you can upgrade this directory in
+place.  This section gives both recipes.
+
+#### Creating a new root directory and migrating old models
+
+This is the safer recipe because it leaves your old root directory in
+place to fall back on.
+
+1. Follow the instructions above to create and install InvokeAI in a
+directory that has a different name from the 2.3 invokeai directory.
+In this example, we will use "invokeai-3"
+
+2. When you are prompted to select models to install, select a minimal
+set of models, such as stable-diffusion-v1.5 only.
+
+3. After installation is complete launch `invokeai.sh` (Linux/Mac) or
+`invokeai.bat` and select option 8 "Open the developers console". This
+will take you to the command line.
+
+4. Issue the command `invokeai-migrate3 --from /path/to/v2.3-root --to
+/path/to/invokeai-3-root`. Provide the correct `--from` and `--to`
+paths for your v2.3 and v3.0 root directories respectively.
+
+This will copy and convert your old models from 2.3 format to 3.0
+format and create a new `models` directory in the 3.0 directory. The
+old models directory (which contains the models selected at install
+time) will be renamed `models.orig` and can be deleted once you have
+confirmed that the migration was successful.
+
+ If you wish, you can pass the 2.3 root directory to both `--from` and
+`--to` in order to update in place. Warning: this directory will no
+longer be usable with InvokeAI 2.3.
+
+#### Migrating in place
+
+For the adventurous, you may do an in-place upgrade from 2.3 to 3.0
+without touching the command line. ***This recipe does not work on
+Windows platforms due to a bug in the Windows version of the 2.3
+upgrade script.** See the next section for a Windows recipe.
+
+##### For Mac and Linux Users:
+
+1. Launch the InvokeAI launcher script in your current v2.3 root directory.
+
+2. Select option [9] "Update InvokeAI" to bring up the updater dialog.
+
+3. Select option [1] to upgrade to the latest release.
+
+4. Once the upgrade is finished you will be returned to the launcher
+menu. Select option [7] "Re-run the configure script to fix a broken
+install or to complete a major upgrade".
+
+This will run the configure script against the v2.3 directory and
+update it to the 3.0 format. The following files will be replaced:
+
+  - The invokeai.init file, replaced by invokeai.yaml
+  - The models directory
+  - The configs/models.yaml model index
+  
+The original versions of these files will be saved with the suffix
+".orig" appended to the end. Once you have confirmed that the upgrade
+worked, you can safely remove these files. Alternatively you can
+restore a working v2.3 directory by removing the new files and
+restoring the ".orig" files' original names.
+
+##### For Windows Users:
+
+Windows Users can upgrade with the
+
+1. Enter the 2.3 root directory you wish to upgrade
+2. Launch `invoke.sh` or `invoke.bat`
+3. Select the "Developer's console" option [8]
+4. Type the following commands
+
+```
+pip install "invokeai @ https://github.com/invoke-ai/InvokeAI/archive/refs/tags/v3.0.0" --use-pep517 --upgrade
+invokeai-configure --root .
+```
+(Replace `v3.0.0` with the current release number if this document is out of date).
+
+The first command will install and upgrade new software to run
+InvokeAI. The second will prepare the 2.3 directory for use with 3.0.
+You may now launch the WebUI in the usual way, by selecting option [1]
+from the launcher script
+
+#### Migrating Images
+
+The migration script will migrate your invokeai settings and models,
+including textual inversion models, LoRAs and merges that you may have
+installed previously. However it does **not** migrate the generated
+images stored in your 2.3-format outputs directory. To do this, you 
+need to run an additional step:
+
+1. From a working InvokeAI 3.0 root directory, start the launcher and
+enter menu option [8] to open the "developer's console".
+
+2. At the developer's console command line, type the command:
+
+```bash
+invokeai-import-images
+```
+
+3. This will lead you through the process of confirming the desired
+   source and destination for the imported images. The images will
+   appear in the gallery board of your choice, and contain the
+   original prompt, model name, and other parameters used to generate
+   the image.
+

+
+## Hardware Requirements
+
+InvokeAI is supported across Linux, Windows and macOS. Linux
+users can use either an Nvidia-based card (with CUDA support) or an
+AMD card (using the ROCm driver).
+
+### System
+
+You will need one of the following:
+
+- An NVIDIA-based graphics card with 4 GB or more VRAM memory. 6-8 GB
+  of VRAM is highly recommended for rendering using the Stable
+  Diffusion XL models
+- An Apple computer with an M1 chip.
+- An AMD-based graphics card with 4GB or more VRAM memory (Linux
+  only), 6-8 GB for XL rendering.
+
+We do not recommend the GTX 1650 or 1660 series video cards. They are
+unable to run in half-precision mode and do not have sufficient VRAM
+to render 512x512 images.
+
+**Memory** - At least 12 GB Main Memory RAM.
+
+**Disk** - At least 12 GB of free disk space for the machine learning model, Python, and all its dependencies.

-# User Isolation Implementation Summary
-
-This document describes the implementation of user isolation features in the InvokeAI session queue and processing system to address issues identified in the enhancement request.
-
-## Issues Addressed
-
-### 1. Cross-User Image/Preview Visibility
-**Problem:** When two users are logged in simultaneously and one initiates a generation, the generation preview shows up in both users' browsers and the generated image gets saved to both users' image boards.
-
-**Solution:** Implemented socket-level event filtering based on user authentication:
-
-#### Backend Changes (`invokeai/app/api/sockets.py`):
-- Added socket authentication middleware in `_handle_connect()` method
-- Extracts JWT token from socket auth data or HTTP headers
-- Verifies token using existing `verify_token()` function
-- Stores `user_id` and `is_admin` in socket session for later use
-- Modified `_handle_queue_event()` to filter events by user:
-  - For `QueueItemEventBase` events, only emit to:
-    - The user who owns the queue item (`user_id` matches)
-    - Admin users (`is_admin` is True)
-  - For general queue events, emit to all subscribers
-
-#### Event System Changes (`invokeai/app/services/events/events_common.py`):
-- Added `user_id` field to `QueueItemEventBase` class
-- Updated all event builders to include `user_id` from queue items:
-  - `InvocationStartedEvent.build()`
-  - `InvocationProgressEvent.build()`
-  - `InvocationCompleteEvent.build()`
-  - `InvocationErrorEvent.build()`
-  - `QueueItemStatusChangedEvent.build()`
-
-### 2. Batch Field Values Privacy
-**Problem:** Users can see batch field values from generation processes launched by other users.
-
-**Solution:** Implemented field value sanitization at the API level:
-
-#### API Router Changes (`invokeai/app/api/routers/session_queue.py`):
-- Created `sanitize_queue_item_for_user()` helper function
-  - Clears `field_values` for non-admin users viewing other users' items
-  - Admins and item owners can see all field values
-- Updated endpoints to require authentication and sanitize responses:
-  - `list_all_queue_items()` - Added `CurrentUser` dependency
-  - `get_queue_items_by_item_ids()` - Added `CurrentUser` dependency
-  - `get_queue_item()` - Added `CurrentUser` dependency
-
-### 3. Queue Updates Across Browser Windows
-**Problem:** When the job queue tab is open in multiple browsers and a generation is begun in one browser window, the queue does not update in the other window.
-
-**Status:** This issue is likely resolved by the socket authentication and event filtering changes. The existing socket subscription mechanism (`subscribe_queue` event) already supports multiple connections per user. Testing is required to confirm this works correctly with the new authentication flow.
-
-### 4. User Information Display
-**Problem:** Queue table lacks user identification, making it difficult to know who launched which job.
-
-**Solution:** Added user information to queue items and UI:
-
-#### Database Layer (`invokeai/app/services/session_queue/session_queue_sqlite.py`):
-- Updated SQL queries to JOIN with `users` table
-- Modified methods to fetch user information:
-  - `get_queue_item()` - Now selects `display_name` and `email` from users table
-  - `dequeue()` - Includes user info
-  - `get_next()` - Includes user info
-  - `get_current()` - Includes user info
-  - `list_all_queue_items()` - Includes user info
-
-#### Data Model Changes (`invokeai/app/services/session_queue/session_queue_common.py`):
-- Added optional fields to `SessionQueueItem`:
-  - `user_display_name: Optional[str]` - Display name from users table
-  - `user_email: Optional[str]` - Email from users table
-  - Note: `user_id` field already existed from Migration 25
-
-#### Frontend UI Changes:
-- **Constants** (`constants.ts`): Added `user: '8rem'` column width
-- **Header** (`QueueListHeader.tsx`): Added "User" column header
-- **Item Component** (`QueueItemComponent.tsx`):
-  - Added logic to display user information (display_name → email → user_id)
-  - Added user column to queue item row
-  - Added tooltip with full username on hover
-  - Added "Hidden for privacy" message when field_values are null for non-owned items
-- **Localization** (`en.json`): Added translations:
-  - `"user": "User"`
-  - `"fieldValuesHidden": "Hidden for privacy"`
-
-## Security Considerations
-
-### Token Verification
-- Tokens are verified using the existing `verify_token()` function from `invokeai.app.services.auth.token_service`
-- Invalid or missing tokens default to "system" user with non-admin privileges
-- Socket connections without valid tokens are still accepted for backward compatibility but have limited access
-
-### Data Privacy
-- Field values are only visible to:
-  - The user who created the queue item
-  - Admin users
-- Non-admin users viewing other users' queue items see "Hidden for privacy" instead of field values
-
-### Admin Privileges
-- Admin users can see all queue events and field values across all users
-- Admin status is determined from the JWT token's `is_admin` field
-
-## Migration Notes
-
-No database migration is required. The changes leverage:
-- Existing `user_id` column in `session_queue` table (added in Migration 25)
-- Existing `users` table (added in Migration 25)
-- SQL LEFT JOINs to fetch user information (gracefully handles missing user records)
-
-## Testing Requirements
-
-### Backend Testing
-1. **Socket Authentication:**
-   - Verify valid tokens are accepted and user context is stored
-   - Verify invalid tokens default to system user
-   - Verify expired tokens are rejected
-
-2. **Event Filtering:**
-   - User A should only receive events for their own queue items
-   - Admin users should receive all events
-   - Non-admin users should not receive events from other users
-
-3. **Field Value Sanitization:**
-   - Non-admin users should see null field_values for other users' items
-   - Admins should see all field values
-   - Users should see their own field values
-
-### Frontend Testing
-1. **UI Display:**
-   - User column should display in queue list
-   - Display name should be shown when available
-   - Email should be shown as fallback when display name is missing
-   - User ID should be shown when both display name and email are missing
-   - Tooltip should show full username on hover
-
-2. **Field Values Display:**
-   - "Hidden for privacy" message should appear when viewing other users' items
-   - Own items should show field values normally
-
-3. **Multi-Browser Testing:**
-   - Open queue tab in two browsers with different users
-   - Start generation in one browser
-   - Verify other browser doesn't see the preview/progress
-   - Verify admin user can see all generations
-
-### Integration Testing
-1. Multi-user scenarios with simultaneous generations
-2. Queue updates across multiple browser windows
-3. Admin vs. non-admin privilege differentiation
-4. Socket reconnection handling
-
-## Known Limitations
-
-1. **TypeScript Types:**
-   - The OpenAPI schema needs to be regenerated to include new fields
-   - Run: `cd invokeai/frontend/web && python ../../../scripts/generate_openapi_schema.py | pnpm typegen`
-
-2. **Backward Compatibility:**
-   - System user ("system") entries will not have display name or email
-   - Existing queue items from before Migration 25 will have user_id="system"
-
-3. **Socket.IO Session Storage:**
-   - Socket.IO's in-memory session storage may not persist across server restarts
-   - Consider implementing persistent session storage if needed for production
-
-## Future Enhancements
-
-1. Add user filtering to queue list (show only my items vs. all items)
-2. Add permission system for queue management operations (cancel, retry, delete)
-3. Implement queue item ownership transfer for administrative purposes
-4. Add audit logging for queue operations with user attribution
-5. Consider implementing user-specific queue limits or quotas

-# Invoke in Docker
+# InvokeAI Containerized
 
-First things first:
-
-- Ensure that Docker can use your [NVIDIA][nvidia docker docs] or [AMD][amd docker docs] GPU.
-- This document assumes a Linux system, but should work similarly under Windows with WSL2.
-- We don't recommend running Invoke in Docker on macOS at this time. It works, but very slowly.
-
-## Quickstart
-
-No `docker compose`, no persistence, single command, using the official images:
-
-**CUDA (NVIDIA GPU):**
-
-```bash
-docker run --runtime=nvidia --gpus=all --publish 9090:9090 ghcr.io/invoke-ai/invokeai
-```
-
-**ROCm (AMD GPU):**
-
-```bash
-docker run --device /dev/kfd --device /dev/dri --publish 9090:9090 ghcr.io/invoke-ai/invokeai:main-rocm
-```
-
-Open `http://localhost:9090` in your browser once the container finishes booting, install some models, and generate away!
-
-### Data persistence
-
-To persist your generated images and downloaded models outside of the container, add a `--volume/-v` flag to the above command, e.g.:
-
-```bash
-docker run --volume /some/local/path:/invokeai {...etc...}
-```
-
-`/some/local/path/invokeai` will contain all your data.
-It can *usually* be reused between different installs of Invoke. Tread with caution and read the release notes!
-
-## Customize the container
-
-The included `run.sh` script is a convenience wrapper around `docker compose`. It can be helpful for passing additional build arguments to `docker compose`. Alternatively, the familiar `docker compose` commands work just as well.
-
-```bash
-cd docker
-cp .env.sample .env
-# edit .env to your liking if you need to; it is well commented.
-./run.sh
-```
-
-It will take a few minutes to build the image the first time. Once the application starts up, open `http://localhost:9090` in your browser to invoke!
-
->[!TIP]
->When using the `run.sh` script, the container will continue running after Ctrl+C. To shut it down, use the `docker compose down` command.
-
-## Docker setup in detail
+All commands are to be run from the `docker` directory: `cd docker`
 
 #### Linux
 
-1. Ensure buildkit is enabled in the Docker daemon settings (`/etc/docker/daemon.json`)

-
 1. Ensure Docker has at least 16GB RAM
 2. Enable VirtioFS for file sharing
 3. Enable `docker compose` V2 support

+
+## v2.3.5 <small>(22 May 2023)</small>
+
+This release (along with the post1 and post2 follow-on releases) expands support for additional LoRA and LyCORIS models, upgrades diffusers versions, and fixes a few bugs.
+
+### LoRA and LyCORIS Support Improvement
+
+    A number of LoRA/LyCORIS fine-tune files (those which alter the text encoder as well as the unet model) were not having the desired effect in InvokeAI. This bug has now been fixed. Full documentation of LoRA support is available at InvokeAI LoRA Support.
+    Previously, InvokeAI did not distinguish between LoRA/LyCORIS models based on Stable Diffusion v1.5 vs those based on v2.0 and 2.1, leading to a crash when an incompatible model was loaded. This has now been fixed. In addition, the web pulldown menus for LoRA and Textual Inversion selection have been enhanced to show only those files that are compatible with the currently-selected Stable Diffusion model.
+    Support for the newer LoKR LyCORIS files has been added.
+
+### Library Updates and Speed/Reproducibility Advancements
+The major enhancement in this version is that NVIDIA users no longer need to decide between speed and reproducibility. Previously, if you activated the Xformers library, you would see improvements in speed and memory usage, but multiple images generated with the same seed and other parameters would be slightly different from each other. This is no longer the case. Relative to 2.3.5 you will see improved performance when running without Xformers, and even better performance when Xformers is activated. In both cases, images generated with the same settings will be identical.
+
+Here are the new library versions:
+Library 	Version
+Torch 	2.0.0
+Diffusers 	0.16.1
+Xformers 	0.0.19
+Compel 	1.1.5
+Other Improvements
+
+### Performance Improvements
+
+    When a model is loaded for the first time, InvokeAI calculates its checksum for incorporation into the PNG metadata. This process could take up to a minute on network-mounted disks and WSL mounts. This release noticeably speeds up the process.
+
+### Bug Fixes
+
+    The "import models from directory" and "import from URL" functionality in the console-based model installer has now been fixed.
+    When running the WebUI, we have reduced the number of times that InvokeAI reaches out to HuggingFace to fetch the list of embeddable Textual Inversion models. We have also caught and fixed a problem with the updater not correctly detecting when another instance of the updater is running 
+
+
+## v2.3.4 <small>(7 April 2023)</small>
+
+What's New in 2.3.4
+
+This features release adds support for LoRA (Low-Rank Adaptation) and LyCORIS (Lora beYond Conventional) models, as well as some minor bug fixes.
+### LoRA and LyCORIS Support
+
+LoRA files contain fine-tuning weights that enable particular styles, subjects or concepts to be applied to generated images. LyCORIS files are an extended variant of LoRA. InvokeAI supports the most common LoRA/LyCORIS format, which ends in the suffix .safetensors. You will find numerous LoRA and LyCORIS models for download at Civitai, and a small but growing number at Hugging Face. Full documentation of LoRA support is available at InvokeAI LoRA Support.( Pre-release note: this page will only be available after release)
+
+To use LoRA/LyCORIS models in InvokeAI:
+
+    Download the .safetensors files of your choice and place in /path/to/invokeai/loras. This directory was not present in earlier version of InvokeAI but will be created for you the first time you run the command-line or web client. You can also create the directory manually.
+
+    Add withLora(lora-file,weight) to your prompts. The weight is optional and will default to 1.0. A few examples, assuming that a LoRA file named loras/sushi.safetensors is present:
+
+family sitting at dinner table eating sushi withLora(sushi,0.9)
+family sitting at dinner table eating sushi withLora(sushi, 0.75)
+family sitting at dinner table eating sushi withLora(sushi)
+
+Multiple withLora() prompt fragments are allowed. The weight can be arbitrarily large, but the useful range is roughly 0.5 to 1.0. Higher weights make the LoRA's influence stronger. Negative weights are also allowed, which can lead to some interesting effects.
+
+    Generate as you usually would! If you find that the image is too "crisp" try reducing the overall CFG value or reducing individual LoRA weights. As is the case with all fine-tunes, you'll get the best results when running the LoRA on top of the model similar to, or identical with, the one that was used during the LoRA's training. Don't try to load a SD 1.x-trained LoRA into a SD 2.x model, and vice versa. This will trigger a non-fatal error message and generation will not proceed.
+
+    You can change the location of the loras directory by passing the --lora_directory option to `invokeai.
+
+### New WebUI LoRA and Textual Inversion Buttons
+
+This version adds two new web interface buttons for inserting LoRA and Textual Inversion triggers into the prompt as shown in the screenshot below.
+
+Clicking on one or the other of the buttons will bring up a menu of available LoRA/LyCORIS or Textual Inversion trigger terms. Select a menu item to insert the properly-formatted withLora() or <textual-inversion> prompt fragment into the positive prompt. The number in parentheses indicates the number of trigger terms currently in the prompt. You may click the button again and deselect the LoRA or trigger to remove it from the prompt, or simply edit the prompt directly.
+
+Currently terms are inserted into the positive prompt textbox only. However, some textual inversion embeddings are designed to be used with negative prompts. To move a textual inversion trigger into the negative prompt, simply cut and paste it.
+
+By default the Textual Inversion menu only shows locally installed models found at startup time in /path/to/invokeai/embeddings. However, InvokeAI has the ability to dynamically download and install additional Textual Inversion embeddings from the HuggingFace Concepts Library. You may choose to display the most popular of these (with five or more likes) in the Textual Inversion menu by going to Settings and turning on "Show Textual Inversions from HF Concepts Library." When this option is activated, the locally-installed TI embeddings will be shown first, followed by uninstalled terms from Hugging Face. See The Hugging Face Concepts Library and Importing Textual Inversion files for more information.
+### Minor features and fixes
+
+This release changes model switching behavior so that the command-line and Web UIs save the last model used and restore it the next time they are launched. It also improves the behavior of the installer so that the pip utility is kept up to date.
+  
+### Known Bugs in 2.3.4
+
+These are known bugs in the release.
+
+    The Ancestral DPMSolverMultistepScheduler (k_dpmpp_2a) sampler is not yet implemented for diffusers models and will disappear from the WebUI Sampler menu when a diffusers model is selected.
+    Windows Defender will sometimes raise Trojan or backdoor alerts for the codeformer.pth face restoration model, as well as the CIDAS/clipseg and runwayml/stable-diffusion-v1.5 models. These are false positives and can be safely ignored. InvokeAI performs a malware scan on all models as they are loaded. For additional security, you should use safetensors models whenever they are available.
+
+
+## v2.3.3 <small>(28 March 2023)</small>
+
+This is a bugfix and minor feature release.
+### Bugfixes
+
+Since version 2.3.2 the following bugs have been fixed:
+Bugs
+
+    When using legacy checkpoints with an external VAE, the VAE file is now scanned for malware prior to loading. Previously only the main model weights file was scanned.
+    Textual inversion will select an appropriate batchsize based on whether xformers is active, and will default to xformers enabled if the library is detected.
+    The batch script log file names have been fixed to be compatible with Windows.
+    Occasional corruption of the .next_prefix file (which stores the next output file name in sequence) on Windows systems is now detected and corrected.
+    Support loading of legacy config files that have no personalization (textual inversion) section.
+    An infinite loop when opening the developer's console from within the invoke.sh script has been corrected.
+    Documentation fixes, including a recipe for detecting and fixing problems with the AMD GPU ROCm driver.
+
+Enhancements
+
+    It is now possible to load and run several community-contributed SD-2.0 based models, including the often-requested "Illuminati" model.
+    The "NegativePrompts" embedding file, and others like it, can now be loaded by placing it in the InvokeAI embeddings directory.
+    If no --model is specified at launch time, InvokeAI will remember the last model used and restore it the next time it is launched.
+    On Linux systems, the invoke.sh launcher now uses a prettier console-based interface. To take advantage of it, install the dialog package using your package manager (e.g. sudo apt install dialog).
+    When loading legacy models (safetensors/ckpt) you can specify a custom config file and/or a VAE by placing like-named files in the same directory as the model following this example:
+
+my-favorite-model.ckpt
+my-favorite-model.yaml
+my-favorite-model.vae.pt      # or my-favorite-model.vae.safetensors
+
+### Known Bugs in 2.3.3
+
+These are known bugs in the release.
+
+    The Ancestral DPMSolverMultistepScheduler (k_dpmpp_2a) sampler is not yet implemented for diffusers models and will disappear from the WebUI Sampler menu when a diffusers model is selected.
+    Windows Defender will sometimes raise Trojan or backdoor alerts for the codeformer.pth face restoration model, as well as the CIDAS/clipseg and runwayml/stable-diffusion-v1.5 models. These are false positives and can be safely ignored. InvokeAI performs a malware scan on all models as they are loaded. For additional security, you should use safetensors models whenever they are available.
+
+
+## v2.3.2 <small>(11 March 2023)</small>
+This is a bugfix and minor feature release.
+
+### Bugfixes
+
+Since version 2.3.1 the following bugs have been fixed:
+
+    Black images appearing for potential NSFW images when generating with legacy checkpoint models and both --no-nsfw_checker and --ckpt_convert turned on.
+    Black images appearing when generating from models fine-tuned on Stable-Diffusion-2-1-base. When importing V2-derived models, you may be asked to select whether the model was derived from a "base" model (512 pixels) or the 768-pixel SD-2.1 model.
+    The "Use All" button was not restoring the Hi-Res Fix setting on the WebUI
+    When using the model installer console app, models failed to import correctly when importing from directories with spaces in their names. A similar issue with the output directory was also fixed.
+    Crashes that occurred during model merging.
+    Restore previous naming of Stable Diffusion base and 768 models.
+    Upgraded to latest versions of diffusers, transformers, safetensors and accelerate libraries upstream. We hope that this will fix the assertion NDArray > 2**32 issue that MacOS users have had when generating images larger than 768x768 pixels. Please report back.
+
+As part of the upgrade to diffusers, the location of the diffusers-based models has changed from models/diffusers to models/hub. When you launch InvokeAI for the first time, it will prompt you to OK a one-time move. This should be quick and harmless, but if you have modified your models/diffusers directory in some way, for example using symlinks, you may wish to cancel the migration and make appropriate adjustments.
+New "Invokeai-batch" script
+
+### Invoke AI Batch
+2.3.2 introduces a new command-line only script called invokeai-batch that can be used to generate hundreds of images from prompts and settings that vary systematically. This can be used to try the same prompt across multiple combinations of models, steps, CFG settings and so forth. It also allows you to template prompts and generate a combinatorial list like:
+
+a shack in the mountains, photograph
+a shack in the mountains, watercolor
+a shack in the mountains, oil painting
+a chalet in the mountains, photograph
+a chalet in the mountains, watercolor
+a chalet in the mountains, oil painting
+a shack in the desert, photograph
+...
+
+If you have a system with multiple GPUs, or a single GPU with lots of VRAM, you can parallelize generation across the combinatorial set, reducing wait times and using your system's resources efficiently (make sure you have good GPU cooling).
+
+To try invokeai-batch out. Launch the "developer's console" using the invoke launcher script, or activate the invokeai virtual environment manually. From the console, give the command invokeai-batch --help in order to learn how the script works and create your first template file for dynamic prompt generation.
+
+
+### Known Bugs in 2.3.2
+
+These are known bugs in the release.
+
+    The Ancestral DPMSolverMultistepScheduler (k_dpmpp_2a) sampler is not yet implemented for diffusers models and will disappear from the WebUI Sampler menu when a diffusers model is selected.
+    Windows Defender will sometimes raise a Trojan alert for the codeformer.pth face restoration model. As far as we have been able to determine, this is a false positive and can be safely whitelisted.
+
+
+## v2.3.1 <small>(22 February 2023)</small>
+This is primarily a bugfix release, but it does provide several new features that will improve the user experience.
+
+### Enhanced support for model management
+
+InvokeAI now makes it convenient to add, remove and modify models. You can individually import models that are stored on your local system, scan an entire folder and its subfolders for models and import them automatically, and even directly import models from the internet by providing their download URLs. You also have the option of designating a local folder to scan for new models each time InvokeAI is restarted.
+
+There are three ways of accessing the model management features:
+
+    From the WebUI, click on the cube to the right of the model selection menu. This will bring up a form that allows you to import models individually from your local disk or scan a directory for models to import.
+
+    Using the Model Installer App
+
+Choose option (5) download and install models from the invoke launcher script to start a new console-based application for model management. You can use this to select from a curated set of starter models, or import checkpoint, safetensors, and diffusers models from a local disk or the internet. The example below shows importing two checkpoint URLs from popular SD sites and a HuggingFace diffusers model using its Repository ID. It also shows how to designate a folder to be scanned at startup time for new models to import.
+
+Command-line users can start this app using the command invokeai-model-install.
+
+    Using the Command Line Client (CLI)
+
+The !install_model and !convert_model commands have been enhanced to allow entering of URLs and local directories to scan and import. The first command installs .ckpt and .safetensors files as-is. The second one converts them into the faster diffusers format before installation.
+
+Internally InvokeAI is able to probe the contents of a .ckpt or .safetensors file to distinguish among v1.x, v2.x and inpainting models. This means that you do not need to include "inpaint" in your model names to use an inpainting model. Note that Stable Diffusion v2.x models will be autoconverted into a diffusers model the first time you use it.
+
+Please see INSTALLING MODELS for more information on model management.
+
+### An Improved Installer Experience
+
+The installer now launches a console-based UI for setting and changing commonly-used startup options:
+
+After selecting the desired options, the installer installs several support models needed by InvokeAI's face reconstruction and upscaling features and then launches the interface for selecting and installing models shown earlier. At any time, you can edit the startup options by launching invoke.sh/invoke.bat and entering option (6) change InvokeAI startup options
+
+Command-line users can launch the new configure app using invokeai-configure.
+
+This release also comes with a renewed updater. To do an update without going through a whole reinstallation, launch invoke.sh or invoke.bat and choose option (9) update InvokeAI . This will bring you to a screen that prompts you to update to the latest released version, to the most current development version, or any released or unreleased version you choose by selecting the tag or branch of the desired version.
+
+Command-line users can run this interface by typing invokeai-configure
+
+### Image Symmetry Options
+
+There are now features to generate horizontal and vertical symmetry during generation. The way these work is to wait until a selected step in the generation process and then to turn on a mirror image effect. In addition to generating some cool images, you can also use this to make side-by-side comparisons of how an image will look with more or fewer steps. Access this option from the WebUI by selecting Symmetry from the image generation settings, or within the CLI by using the options --h_symmetry_time_pct and --v_symmetry_time_pct (these can be abbreviated to --h_sym and --v_sym like all other options).
+
+### A New Unified Canvas Look
+
+This release introduces a beta version of the WebUI Unified Canvas. To try it out, open up the settings dialogue in the WebUI (gear icon) and select Use Canvas Beta Layout:
+
+Refresh the screen and go to to Unified Canvas (left side of screen, third icon from the top). The new layout is designed to provide more space to work in and to keep the image controls close to the image itself:
+
+Model conversion and merging within the WebUI
+
+The WebUI now has an intuitive interface for model merging, as well as for permanent conversion of models from legacy .ckpt/.safetensors formats into diffusers format. These options are also available directly from the invoke.sh/invoke.bat scripts.
+An easier way to contribute translations to the WebUI
+
+We have migrated our translation efforts to Weblate, a FOSS translation product. Maintaining the growing project's translations is now far simpler for the maintainers and community. Please review our brief translation guide for more information on how to contribute.
+Numerous internal bugfixes and performance issues
+
+### Bug Fixes
+This releases quashes multiple bugs that were reported in 2.3.0. Major internal changes include upgrading to diffusers 0.13.0, and using the compel library for prompt parsing. See Detailed Change Log for a detailed list of bugs caught and squished.

+
+## v2.3.0 <small>(15 January 2023)</small>
+
+**Transition to diffusers
+
+Version 2.3 provides support for both the traditional `.ckpt` weight
+checkpoint files as well as the HuggingFace `diffusers` format. This
+introduces several changes you should know about.
+
+1. The models.yaml format has been updated. There are now two
+   different type of configuration stanza. The traditional ckpt
+   one will look like this, with a `format` of `ckpt` and a
+   `weights` field that points to the absolute or ROOTDIR-relative
+   location of the ckpt file.
+
+   ```
+   inpainting-1.5:
+      description: RunwayML SD 1.5 model optimized for inpainting (4.27 GB)
+      repo_id: runwayml/stable-diffusion-inpainting
+      format: ckpt
+      width: 512
+      height: 512
+      weights: models/ldm/stable-diffusion-v1/sd-v1-5-inpainting.ckpt
+      config: configs/stable-diffusion/v1-inpainting-inference.yaml
+      vae: models/ldm/stable-diffusion-v1/vae-ft-mse-840000-ema-pruned.ckpt
+   ```
+
+  A configuration stanza for a diffusers model hosted at HuggingFace will look like this,
+  with a `format` of `diffusers` and a `repo_id` that points to the
+  repository ID of the model on HuggingFace:
+
+  ```
+  stable-diffusion-2.1:
+  description: Stable Diffusion version 2.1 diffusers model (5.21 GB)
+  repo_id: stabilityai/stable-diffusion-2-1
+  format: diffusers
+  ```
+
+  A configuration stanza for a diffuers model stored locally should
+  look like this, with a `format` of `diffusers`, but a `path` field
+  that points at the directory that contains `model_index.json`:
+
+  ```
+  waifu-diffusion:
+  description: Latest waifu diffusion 1.4
+  format: diffusers
+  path: models/diffusers/hakurei-haifu-diffusion-1.4
+  ```
+
+2. In order of precedence, InvokeAI will now use HF_HOME, then
+   XDG_CACHE_HOME, then finally default to `ROOTDIR/models` to
+   store HuggingFace diffusers models.
+
+   Consequently, the format of the models directory has changed to
+   mimic the HuggingFace cache directory. When HF_HOME and XDG_HOME
+   are not set, diffusers models are now automatically downloaded
+   and retrieved from the directory `ROOTDIR/models/diffusers`,
+   while other models are stored in the directory
+   `ROOTDIR/models/hub`. This organization is the same as that used
+   by HuggingFace for its cache management.
+
+   This allows you to share diffusers and ckpt model files easily with
+   other machine learning applications that use the HuggingFace
+   libraries. To do this, set the environment variable HF_HOME
+   before starting up InvokeAI to tell it what directory to
+   cache models in. To tell InvokeAI to use the standard HuggingFace
+   cache directory, you would set HF_HOME like this (Linux/Mac):
+
+   `export HF_HOME=~/.cache/huggingface`
+
+   Both HuggingFace and InvokeAI will fall back to the XDG_CACHE_HOME
+   environment variable if HF_HOME is not set; this path
+   takes precedence over `ROOTDIR/models` to allow for the same sharing
+   with other machine learning applications that use HuggingFace
+   libraries.
+
+3. If you upgrade to InvokeAI 2.3.* from an earlier version, there
+   will be a one-time migration from the old models directory format
+   to the new one. You will see a message about this the first time
+   you start `invoke.py`.
+
+4. Both the front end back ends of the model manager have been
+   rewritten to accommodate diffusers. You can import models using
+   their local file path, using their URLs, or their HuggingFace
+   repo_ids. On the command line, all these syntaxes work:
+
+   ```
+   !import_model stabilityai/stable-diffusion-2-1-base
+   !import_model /opt/sd-models/sd-1.4.ckpt
+   !import_model https://huggingface.co/Fictiverse/Stable_Diffusion_PaperCut_Model/blob/main/PaperCut_v1.ckpt
+   ```
+
+**KNOWN BUGS (15 January 2023)
+
+1. On CUDA systems, the 768 pixel stable-diffusion-2.0 and
+   stable-diffusion-2.1 models can only be run as `diffusers` models
+   when the `xformer` library is installed and configured. Without
+   `xformers`, InvokeAI returns black images.
+
+2. Inpainting and outpainting have regressed in quality.
+
+Both these issues are being actively worked on.
+
+## v2.2.4 <small>(11 December 2022)</small>
+
+**the `invokeai` directory**
+
+Previously there were two directories to worry about, the directory that
+contained the InvokeAI source code and the launcher scripts, and the `invokeai`
+directory that contained the models files, embeddings, configuration and
+outputs. With the 2.2.4 release, this dual system is done away with, and
+everything, including the `invoke.bat` and `invoke.sh` launcher scripts, now
+live in a directory named `invokeai`. By default this directory is located in
+your home directory (e.g. `\Users\yourname` on Windows), but you can select
+where it goes at install time.
+
+After installation, you can delete the install directory (the one that the zip
+file creates when it unpacks). Do **not** delete or move the `invokeai`
+directory!
+
+**Initialization file `invokeai/invokeai.init`**
+
+You can place frequently-used startup options in this file, such as the default
+number of steps or your preferred sampler. To keep everything in one place, this
+file has now been moved into the `invokeai` directory and is named
+`invokeai.init`.
+
+**To update from Version 2.2.3**
+
+The easiest route is to download and unpack one of the 2.2.4 installer files.
+When it asks you for the location of the `invokeai` runtime directory, respond
+with the path to the directory that contains your 2.2.3 `invokeai`. That is, if
+`invokeai` lives at `C:\Users\fred\invokeai`, then answer with `C:\Users\fred`
+and answer "Y" when asked if you want to reuse the directory.
+
+The `update.sh` (`update.bat`) script that came with the 2.2.3 source installer
+does not know about the new directory layout and won't be fully functional.
+
+**To update to 2.2.5 (and beyond) there's now an update path**
+
+As they become available, you can update to more recent versions of InvokeAI
+using an `update.sh` (`update.bat`) script located in the `invokeai` directory.
+Running it without any arguments will install the most recent version of
+InvokeAI. Alternatively, you can get set releases by running the `update.sh`
+script with an argument in the command shell. This syntax accepts the path to
+the desired release's zip file, which you can find by clicking on the green
+"Code" button on this repository's home page.

-# Release Process
-
-The Invoke application is published as a python package on [PyPI]. This includes both a source distribution and built distribution (a wheel).
-
-Most users install it with the [Launcher](https://github.com/invoke-ai/launcher/), others with `pip`.
-
-The launcher uses GitHub as the source of truth for available releases.
-
-## Broad Strokes
-
-- Merge all changes and bump the version in the codebase.
-- Tag the release commit.
-- Wait for the release workflow to complete.
-- Approve the PyPI publish jobs.
-- Write GH release notes.
-
-## General Prep
-
-Make a developer call-out for PRs to merge. Merge and test things
-out. Create a branch with a name like user/chore/vX.X.X-prep and bump the version by editing
-`invokeai/version/invokeai_version.py` and commit locally.
-
-## Release Workflow
-
-The `release.yml` workflow runs a number of jobs to handle code checks, tests, build and publish on PyPI.
-
-It is triggered on **tag push**, when the tag matches `v*`.
-
-### Triggering the Workflow
-
-Ensure all commits that should be in the release are merged into this branch, and that you have pulled them locally.
-
-Run `make tag-release` to tag the current commit and kick off the workflow. You will be prompted to provide a message - use the version specifier.
-
-If this version's tag already exists for some reason (maybe you had to make a last minute change), the script will overwrite it.
-
-Push the commit to trigger the workflow.
-
-> In case you cannot use the Make target, the release may also be dispatched [manually] via GH.
-
-### Workflow Jobs and Process
-
-The workflow consists of a number of concurrently-run checks and tests, then two final publish jobs.
-
-The publish jobs require manual approval and are only run if the other jobs succeed.
-
-#### `check-version` Job
-
-This job ensures that the `invokeai` python package version specifier matches the tag for the release. The version specifier is pulled from the `__version__` variable in `invokeai/version/invokeai_version.py`.
-
-This job uses [samuelcolvin/check-python-version].
-
-> Any valid [version specifier] works, so long as the tag matches the version. The release workflow works exactly the same for `RC`, `post`, `dev`, etc.
-
-#### Check and Test Jobs
-
-Next, these jobs run and must pass. They are the same jobs that are run for every PR.
-
-- **`python-tests`**: runs `pytest` on matrix of platforms
-- **`python-checks`**: runs `ruff` (format and lint)
-- **`frontend-tests`**: runs `vitest`
-- **`frontend-checks`**: runs `prettier` (format), `eslint` (lint), `dpdm` (circular refs), `tsc` (static type check) and `knip` (unused imports)
-- **`typegen-checks`**: ensures the frontend and backend types are synced
-
-#### `build-wheel` Job
-
-This sets up both python and frontend dependencies and builds the python package. Internally, this runs `./scripts/build_wheel.sh` and uploads `dist.zip`, which contains the wheel and unarchived build.
-
-You don't need to download or test these artifacts.
-
-#### Sanity Check & Smoke Test
-
-At this point, the release workflow pauses as the remaining publish jobs require approval.
-
-It's possible to test the python package before it gets published to PyPI. We've never had problems with it, so it's not necessary to do this.
-
-But, if you want to be extra-super careful, here's how to test it:
-
-- Download the `dist.zip` build artifact from the `build-wheel` job
-- Unzip it and find the wheel file
-- Create a fresh Invoke install by following the [manual install guide](https://invoke-ai.github.io/InvokeAI/installation/manual/) - but instead of installing from PyPI, install from the wheel
-- Test the app
-
-##### Something isn't right
-
-If testing reveals any issues, no worries. Cancel the workflow, which will cancel the pending publish jobs (you didn't approve them prematurely, right?) and start over.
-
-#### PyPI Publish Jobs
-
-The publish jobs will not run if any of the previous jobs fail.
-
-They use [GitHub environments], which are configured as [trusted publishers] on PyPI.
-
-Both jobs require a @lstein or @blessedcoolant to approve them from the workflow's **Summary** tab.
-
-- Click the **Review deployments** button
-- Select the environment (either `testpypi` or `pypi` - typically you select both)
-- Click **Approve and deploy**
-
-> **If the version already exists on PyPI, the publish jobs will fail.** PyPI only allows a given version to be published once - you cannot change it. If version published on PyPI has a problem, you'll need to "fail forward" by bumping the app version and publishing a followup release.
-
-##### Failing PyPI Publish
-
-Check the [python infrastructure status page] for incidents.
-
-If there are no incidents, contact @lstein or @blessedcoolant, who have owner access to GH and PyPI, to see if access has expired or something like that.
-
-#### `publish-testpypi` Job
-
-Publishes the distribution on the [Test PyPI] index, using the `testpypi` GitHub environment.
-
-This job is not required for the production PyPI publish, but included just in case you want to test the PyPI release for some reason:
-
-- Approve this publish job without approving the prod publish
-- Let it finish
-- Create a fresh Invoke install by following the [manual install guide](https://invoke-ai.github.io/InvokeAI/installation/manual/), making sure to use the Test PyPI index URL: `https://test.pypi.org/simple/`
-- Test the app
-
-#### `publish-pypi` Job
-
-Publishes the distribution on the production PyPI index, using the `pypi` GitHub environment.
-
-It's a good idea to wait to approve and run this job until you have the release notes ready!
-
-## Prep and publish the GitHub Release
-
-1. [Draft a new release] on GitHub, choosing the tag that triggered the release.
-2. The **Generate release notes** button automatically inserts the changelog and new contributors. Make sure to select the correct tags for this release and the last stable release. GH often selects the wrong tags - do this manually.
-3. Write the release notes, describing important changes. Contributions from community members should be shouted out. Use the GH-generated changelog to see all contributors. If there are Weblate translation updates, open that PR and shout out every person who contributed a translation.
-4. Check **Set as a pre-release** if it's a pre-release.
-5. Approve and wait for the `publish-pypi` job to finish if you haven't already.
-6. Publish the GH release.
-7. Post the release in Discord in the [releases](https://discord.com/channels/1020123559063990373/1149260708098359327) channel with abbreviated notes. For example:
-   > Invoke v5.7.0 (stable): <https://github.com/invoke-ai/InvokeAI/releases/tag/v5.7.0>
-   >
-   > It's a pretty big one - Form Builder, Metadata Nodes (thanks @SkunkWorxDark!), and much more.
-8. Right click the message in releases and copy the link to it. Then, post that link in the [new-release-discussion](https://discord.com/channels/1020123559063990373/1149506274971631688) channel. For example:
-   > Invoke v5.7.0 (stable): <https://discord.com/channels/1020123559063990373/1149260708098359327/1344521744916021248>
-
-## Manual Release
-
-The `release` workflow can be dispatched manually. You must dispatch the workflow from the right tag, else it will fail the version check.
-
-This functionality is available as a fallback in case something goes wonky. Typically, releases should be triggered via tag push as described above.

-title: Configuration
----
-
-# :material-tune-variant: InvokeAI Configuration
-
-## Intro
-
-Runtime settings, including the location of files and
-directories, memory usage, and performance, are managed via the
-`invokeai.yaml` config file or environment variables. A subset
-of settings may be set via commandline arguments.
-
-Settings sources are used in this order:
-
-- CLI args
-- Environment variables
-- `invokeai.yaml` settings
-- Fallback: defaults
-
-### InvokeAI Root Directory
-
-On startup, InvokeAI searches for its "root" directory. This is the directory
-that contains models, images, the database, and so on. It also contains
-a configuration file called `invokeai.yaml`.
-
-InvokeAI searches for the root directory in this order:
-
-1. The `--root <path>` CLI arg.
-2. The environment variable INVOKEAI_ROOT.
-3. The directory containing the currently active virtual environment.
-4. Fallback: a directory in the current user's home directory named `invokeai`.
-
-### InvokeAI Configuration File
-
-Inside the root directory, we read settings from the `invokeai.yaml` file.
-
-It has two sections - one for internal use and one for user settings:
-
-```yaml
-# Internal metadata - do not edit:
-schema_version: 4.0.2
-
-# Put user settings here - see https://invoke-ai.github.io/InvokeAI/features/CONFIGURATION/:
-host: 0.0.0.0 # serve the app on your local network
-models_dir: D:\invokeai\models # store models on an external drive
-precision: float16 # always use fp16 precision
-```
-
-The settings in this file will override the defaults. You only need
-to change this file if the default for a particular setting doesn't
-work for you.
-
-You'll find an example file next to `invokeai.yaml` that shows the default values.
-
-Some settings, like [Model Marketplace API Keys], require the YAML
-to be formatted correctly. Here is a [basic guide to YAML files].
-
-#### Custom Config File Location
-
-You can use any config file with the `--config` CLI arg. Pass in the path to the `invokeai.yaml` file you want to use.
-
-Note that environment variables will trump any settings in the config file.
-
-### Environment Variables
-
-All settings may be set via environment variables by prefixing `INVOKEAI_`
-to the variable name. For example, `INVOKEAI_HOST` would set the `host`
-setting.
-
-For non-primitive values, pass a JSON-encoded string:
-
-```sh
-export INVOKEAI_REMOTE_API_TOKENS='[{"url_regex":"modelmarketplace", "token": "12345"}]'
-```
-
-We suggest using `invokeai.yaml`, as it is more user-friendly.
-
-### CLI Args
-
-A subset of settings may be specified using CLI args:
-
-- `--root`: specify the root directory
-- `--config`: override the default `invokeai.yaml` file location
-
-### Low-VRAM Mode
-
-See the [Low-VRAM mode docs][low-vram] for details on enabling this feature.
-
-### All Settings
-
-Following the table are additional explanations for certain settings.
-
-<!-- prettier-ignore-start -->
-::: invokeai.app.services.config.config_default.InvokeAIAppConfig
-    options:
-        show_root_heading: false
-        members: false
-        show_docstring_description: false
-        show_category_heading: false
-<!-- prettier-ignore-end -->
-
-#### Model Marketplace API Keys
-
-Some model marketplaces require an API key to download models. You can provide a URL pattern and appropriate token in your `invokeai.yaml` file to provide that API key.
-
-The pattern can be any valid regex (you may need to surround the pattern with quotes):
-
-```yaml
-remote_api_tokens:
-  # Any URL containing `models.com` will automatically use `your_models_com_token`
-  - url_regex: models.com
-    token: your_models_com_token
-  # Any URL matching this contrived regex will use `some_other_token`
-  - url_regex: '^[a-z]{3}whatever.*\.com$'
-    token: some_other_token
-```
-
-The provided token will be added as a `Bearer` token to the network requests to download the model files. As far as we know, this works for all model marketplaces that require authorization.
-
-!!! tip "HuggingFace Models"
-
-    If you get an error when installing a HF model using a URL instead of repo id, you may need to [set up a HF API token](https://huggingface.co/settings/tokens) and add an entry for it under `remote_api_tokens`. Use `huggingface.co` for `url_regex`.
-
-#### Model Hashing
-
-Models are hashed during installation, providing a stable identifier for models across all platforms. Hashing is a one-time operation.
-
-```yaml
-hashing_algorithm: blake3_single # default value
-```
-
-You might want to change this setting, depending on your system:
-
-- `blake3_single` (default): Single-threaded - best for spinning HDDs, still OK for SSDs
-- `blake3_multi`: Parallelized, memory-mapped implementation - best for SSDs, terrible for spinning disks
-- `random`: Skip hashing entirely - fastest but of course no hash
-
-During the first startup after upgrading to v4, all of your models will be hashed. This can take a few minutes.
-
-Most common algorithms are supported, like `md5`, `sha256`, and `sha512`. These are typically much, much slower than either of the BLAKE3 variants.
-
-#### Path Settings
-
-These options set the paths of various directories and files used by InvokeAI. Any user-defined paths should be absolute paths.
-
-#### Logging
-
-Several different log handler destinations are available, and multiple destinations are supported by providing a list:
-
-```yaml
-log_handlers:
-  - console
-  - syslog=localhost
-  - file=/var/log/invokeai.log

-- `console` is the default. It prints log messages to the command-line window from which InvokeAI was launched.
-
-- `syslog` is only available on Linux and Macintosh systems. It uses
-  the operating system's "syslog" facility to write log file entries
-  locally or to a remote logging machine. `syslog` offers a variety
-  of configuration options:
-
-```yaml
-syslog=/dev/log`      - log to the /dev/log device
-syslog=localhost`     - log to the network logger running on the local machine
-syslog=localhost:512` - same as above, but using a non-standard port
-syslog=fredserver,facility=LOG_USER,socktype=SOCK_DRAM`
-- Log to LAN-connected server "fredserver" using the facility LOG_USER and datagram packets.
-```
-
-- `http` can be used to log to a remote web server. The server must be
-  properly configured to receive and act on log messages. The option
-  accepts the URL to the web server, and a `method` argument
-  indicating whether the message should be submitted using the GET or
-  POST method.
-
-```yaml
-http=http://my.server/path/to/logger,method=POST
-```
-
-The `log_format` option provides several alternative formats:
-
-- `color` - default format providing time, date and a message, using text colors to distinguish different log severities
-- `plain` - same as above, but monochrome text only
-- `syslog` - the log level and error message only, allowing the syslog system to attach the time and date
-- `legacy` - a format similar to the one used by the legacy 2.3 InvokeAI releases.

-# Canvas Projects — Technical Documentation
-
-## Overview
-
-Canvas Projects provide a save/load mechanism for the entire canvas state. The feature serializes all canvas entities, generation parameters, reference images, and their associated image files into a ZIP-based `.invk` file. On load, it restores the full state, handling image deduplication and re-uploading as needed.
-
-## File Format
-
-The `.invk` file is a standard ZIP archive with the following structure:
-
-```
-project.invk
-├── manifest.json
-├── canvas_state.json
-├── params.json
-├── ref_images.json
-├── loras.json
-└── images/
-    ├── {image_name_1}.png
-    ├── {image_name_2}.png
-    └── ...
-```
-
-### manifest.json
-
-Schema version and metadata. Validated on load with Zod.
-
-```json
-{
-  "version": 1,
-  "appVersion": "5.12.0",
-  "createdAt": "2026-02-26T12:00:00.000Z",
-  "name": "My Canvas Project"
-}
-```
-
-| Field | Type | Description |
-|---|---|---|
-| `version` | `number` | Schema version, currently `1`. Used for migration logic on load. |
-| `appVersion` | `string` | InvokeAI version that created the file. Informational only. |
-| `createdAt` | `string` | ISO 8601 timestamp. |
-| `name` | `string` | User-provided project name. Also used as the download filename. |
-
-### canvas_state.json
-
-The serialized canvas entity tree. Type: `CanvasProjectState`.
-
-```typescript
-type CanvasProjectState = {
-  rasterLayers: CanvasRasterLayerState[];
-  controlLayers: CanvasControlLayerState[];
-  inpaintMasks: CanvasInpaintMaskState[];
-  regionalGuidance: CanvasRegionalGuidanceState[];
-  bbox: CanvasState['bbox'];
-  selectedEntityIdentifier: CanvasState['selectedEntityIdentifier'];
-  bookmarkedEntityIdentifier: CanvasState['bookmarkedEntityIdentifier'];
-};
-```
-
-Each entity contains its full state including all canvas objects (brush lines, eraser lines, rect shapes, images). Image objects reference files by `image_name` which correspond to files in the `images/` folder.
-
-### params.json
-
-The complete generation parameters state (`ParamsState`). Optional on load (older files may not have it). This includes all fields from the params Redux slice:
-
-- Prompts (positive, negative, prompt history)
-- Core generation settings (seed, steps, CFG scale, guidance, scheduler, iterations)
-- Model selections (main model, VAE, FLUX VAE, T5 encoder, CLIP embed models, refiner, Z-Image models, Klein models)
-- Dimensions (width, height, aspect ratio)
-- Img2img strength
-- Infill settings (method, tile size, patchmatch downscale, color)
-- Canvas coherence settings (mode, edge size, min denoise)
-- Refiner parameters (steps, CFG scale, scheduler, aesthetic scores, start)
-- FLUX-specific settings (scheduler, DyPE preset/scale/exponent)
-- Z-Image-specific settings (scheduler, seed variance)
-- Upscale settings (scheduler, CFG scale)
-- Seamless tiling, mask blur, CLIP skip, VAE precision, CPU noise, color compensation
-
-### ref_images.json
-
-Global reference image entities (`RefImageState[]`). These are IP-Adapter / FLUX Redux configs with `CroppableImageWithDims` containing both original and cropped image references. Optional on load.
-
-### loras.json
-
-Array of LoRA configurations (`LoRA[]`). Each entry contains:
-
-```typescript
-type LoRA = {
-  id: string;
-  isEnabled: boolean;
-  model: ModelIdentifierField;
-  weight: number;
-};
-```
-
-Optional on load. Like models, LoRA identifiers are stored as-is — if a LoRA is not installed when loading, the entry is restored but may not be usable.
-
-### images/
-
-All image files referenced anywhere in the state. Keyed by their original `image_name`. On save, each image is fetched from the backend via `GET /api/v1/images/i/{name}/full` and stored as-is.
-
-## Key Source Files
-
-| File | Purpose |
-|---|---|
-| `features/controlLayers/util/canvasProjectFile.ts` | Types, constants, image name collection, remapping, existence checking |
-| `features/controlLayers/hooks/useCanvasProjectSave.ts` | Save hook — collects Redux state, fetches images, builds ZIP |
-| `features/controlLayers/hooks/useCanvasProjectLoad.ts` | Load hook — parses ZIP, deduplicates images, dispatches state |
-| `features/controlLayers/components/SaveCanvasProjectDialog.tsx` | Save name dialog + `useSaveCanvasProjectWithDialog` hook |
-| `features/controlLayers/components/LoadCanvasProjectConfirmationAlertDialog.tsx` | Load confirmation dialog + `useLoadCanvasProjectWithDialog` hook |
-| `features/controlLayers/components/Toolbar/CanvasToolbarProjectMenuButton.tsx` | Toolbar dropdown UI |
-| `features/controlLayers/store/canvasSlice.ts` | `canvasProjectRecalled` Redux action |
-
-## Save Flow
-
-1. User clicks "Save Canvas Project" → `SaveCanvasProjectDialog` opens asking for a project name
-2. On confirm, `saveCanvasProject(name)` is called
-3. Read Redux state via selectors: `selectCanvasSlice()`, `selectParamsSlice()`, `selectRefImagesSlice()`, `selectLoRAsSlice()`
-4. Build `CanvasProjectState` from the canvas slice; use `paramsState` directly for params
-5. Walk all entities to collect every `image_name` reference via `collectImageNames()`:
-   - `CanvasImageState.image.image_name` in layer/mask objects
-   - `CroppableImageWithDims.original.image.image_name` in global ref images
-   - `CroppableImageWithDims.crop.image.image_name` in cropped ref images
-   - `ImageWithDims.image_name` in regional guidance ref images
-6. Fetch each image from the backend API
-7. Build ZIP with JSZip: add `manifest.json` (including `name`), `canvas_state.json`, `params.json`, `ref_images.json`, and all images into `images/`
-8. Sanitize the name for filesystem use and generate blob, trigger download as `{name}.invk`
-
-## Load Flow
-
-1. User selects `.invk` file → confirmation dialog opens
-2. On confirm, parse ZIP with JSZip
-3. Validate manifest version via Zod schema
-4. Read `canvas_state.json`, `params.json` (optional), `ref_images.json` (optional)
-5. Collect all `image_name` references from the loaded state
-6. **Deduplicate images**: for each referenced image, check if it exists on the server via `getImageDTOSafe(image_name)`
-   - Already exists → skip (no upload)
-   - Missing → upload from ZIP via `uploadImage()`, record `oldName → newName` mapping
-7. Remap all `image_name` values in the loaded state using the mapping (only for re-uploaded images whose names changed)
-8. Dispatch Redux actions:
-   - `canvasProjectRecalled()` — restores all canvas entities, bbox, selected/bookmarked entity
-   - `refImagesRecalled()` — restores global reference images
-   - `paramsRecalled()` — replaces the entire params state in one action
-   - `loraAllDeleted()` + `loraRecalled()` — restores LoRAs
-9. Show success/error toast
-
-## Image Name Collection & Remapping
-
-The `canvasProjectFile.ts` utility provides two parallel sets of functions:
-
-**Collection** (`collectImageNames`): Walks the entire state tree and returns a `Set<string>` of all referenced `image_name` values. This is used by both save (to know which images to fetch) and load (to know which images to check/upload).
-
-**Remapping** (`remapCanvasState`, `remapRefImages`): Deep-clones state objects and replaces `image_name` values using a `Map<string, string>` mapping. Only images that were re-uploaded with a different name are remapped. Images that already existed on the server are left unchanged.
-
-Both walk the same paths through the state tree:
-- Layer/mask objects → `CanvasImageState.image.image_name`
-- Regional guidance ref images → `ImageWithDims.image_name`
-- Global ref images → `CroppableImageWithDims.original.image.image_name` and `.crop.image.image_name`
-
-## Extending the Format
-
-### Adding new optional data (non-breaking)
-
-Add a new JSON file to the ZIP. No version bump needed.
-
-1. **Save**: Add `zip.file('new_data.json', JSON.stringify(data))` in `useCanvasProjectSave.ts`
-2. **Load**: Read with `zip.file('new_data.json')` in `useCanvasProjectLoad.ts` — check for `null` so older project files without it still load
-3. **Dispatch**: Add the appropriate Redux action to restore the data
-
-### Adding new entity types with images
-
-1. Extend `CanvasProjectState` type in `canvasProjectFile.ts`
-2. Add collection logic in `collectImageNames()` to walk the new entity's objects
-3. Add remapping logic in `remapCanvasState()` to update image names
-4. Include the new entity array in both save and load hooks
-5. Handle it in the `canvasProjectRecalled` reducer in `canvasSlice.ts`
-
-### Breaking schema changes
-
-1. Bump `CANVAS_PROJECT_VERSION` in `canvasProjectFile.ts`
-2. Update the Zod manifest schema: `version: z.union([z.literal(1), z.literal(2)])`
-3. Add migration logic in the load hook: check version, transform v1 → v2 before dispatching
-
-## UI Architecture
-
-### Save dialog
-
-The save flow uses a **nanostore atom** (`$isOpen`) to control the `SaveCanvasProjectDialog`:
-
-1. `useSaveCanvasProjectWithDialog()` — returns a callback that sets `$isOpen` to `true`
-2. `SaveCanvasProjectDialog` (singleton in `GlobalModalIsolator`) — renders an `AlertDialog` with a name input
-3. On save → calls `saveCanvasProject(name)` and closes the dialog
-4. On cancel → closes the dialog
-
-### Load dialog
-
-The load flow uses a **nanostore atom** (`$pendingFile`) to decouple the file dialog from the confirmation dialog:
-
-1. `useLoadCanvasProjectWithDialog()` — opens a programmatic file input (`document.createElement('input')`)
-2. On file selection → sets `$pendingFile` atom
-3. `LoadCanvasProjectConfirmationAlertDialog` (singleton in `GlobalModalIsolator`) — subscribes to `$pendingFile` via `useStore()`
-4. On accept → calls `loadCanvasProject(file)` and clears the atom
-5. On cancel → clears the atom
-
-The programmatic file input approach was chosen because the context menu component uses `isLazy: true`, which unmounts the DOM tree when the menu closes — a hidden `<input>` element inside the menu would be destroyed before the file dialog returns.

-
-##  The API
-
-The default download queue is `DownloadQueueService`, an
-implementation of ABC `DownloadQueueServiceBase`. It juggles multiple
-background download requests and provides facilities for interrogating
-and cancelling the requests. Access to a current or past download task
-is mediated via `DownloadJob` objects which report the current status
-of a job request
-
-### The Queue Object
-
-A default download queue is located in
-`ApiDependencies.invoker.services.download_queue`. However, you can
-create additional instances if you need to isolate your queue from the
-main one.
-
-```
-queue = DownloadQueueService(event_bus=events)
-```
-
-`DownloadQueueService()` takes three optional arguments:
-
-| **Argument** | **Type**          |  **Default**  | **Description** |
-|----------------|-----------------|---------------|-----------------|
-| `max_parallel_dl`  | int                         | 5    | Maximum number of simultaneous downloads allowed |
-| `event_bus` | EventServiceBase   | None | System-wide FastAPI event bus for reporting download events |
-| `requests_session` | requests.sessions.Session   | None | An alternative requests Session object to use for the download |
-
-`max_parallel_dl` specifies how many download jobs are allowed to run
-simultaneously. Each will run in a different thread of execution.
-
-`event_bus` is an EventServiceBase, typically the one created at
-InvokeAI startup. If present, download events are periodically emitted
-on this bus to allow clients to follow download progress.
-
-`requests_session` is a url library requests Session object. It is
-used for testing.
-
-### The Job object
-
-The queue operates on a series of download job objects. These objects
-specify the source and destination of the download, and keep track of
-the progress of the download.
-
-Two job types are defined. `DownloadJob` and
-`MultiFileDownloadJob`. The former is a pydantic object with the

-| `error_type`     | str              |              | String version of the exception that caused an error during download |
-| `error`          | str              |              | String version of the traceback associated with an error |
-| `cancelled`      | bool             | False        | Set to true if the job was cancelled by the caller|
-
-When you create a job, you can assign it a `priority`. If multiple
-jobs are queued, the job with the lowest priority runs first.
-
-Every job has a `source` and a `dest`. `source` is a pydantic.networks AnyHttpUrl object.
-The `dest` is a path on the local filesystem that specifies the
-destination for the downloaded object. Its semantics are
-described below.
-
-When the job is submitted, it is assigned a numeric `id`. The id can
-then be used to fetch the job object from the queue.
-
-The `status` field is updated by the queue to indicate where the job
-is in its lifecycle. Values are defined in the string enum
-`DownloadJobStatus`, a symbol available from
-`invokeai.app.services.download_manager`. Possible values are:
-
-| **Value**    |   **String Value**  | ** Description ** |
-|--------------|---------------------|-------------------|
-| `WAITING`      | waiting           | Job is on the queue but not yet running|
-| `RUNNING`      | running           | The download is started                |
-| `COMPLETED`    | completed         | Job has finished its work without an error |
-| `ERROR`        | error             | Job encountered an error and will not run again|
-
-`job_started` and `job_ended` indicate when the job
-was started (using a python timestamp) and when it completed.
-
-In case of an error, the job's status will be set to `DownloadJobStatus.ERROR`, the text of the
-Exception that caused the error will be placed in the `error_type`
-field and the traceback that led to the error will be in `error`.
-
-A cancelled job will have status `DownloadJobStatus.ERROR` and an
-`error_type` field of "DownloadJobCancelledException". In addition,
-the job's `cancelled` property will be set to True.
-
-The `MultiFileDownloadJob` is used for diffusers model downloads,
-which contain multiple files and directories under a common root:
-
-| **Field**      | **Type**        |  **Default**  | **Description** |
-|----------------|-----------------|---------------|-----------------|
-| _Fields passed in at job creation time_                               |
-| `download_parts` | Set[DownloadJob]|               | Component download jobs |
-| `dest`           | Path            |               | Where to download to              |
-| `on_start`       | Callable        |               | [optional] callback when the download starts |
-| `on_progress` | Callable | | [optional] callback called at intervals during download progress |
-| `on_complete`    | Callable        |               | [optional] callback called after successful download completion |
-| `on_error`       | Callable        |               | [optional] callback called after an error occurs  |
-| `id`             | int             | auto assigned | Job ID, an integer >= 0           |
-| _Fields updated over the course of the download task_
-| `status`         | DownloadJobStatus|              | Status code                                |
-| `download_path`  | Path |              | Path to the root of the downloaded files |
-| `bytes`          | int              | 0            | Bytes downloaded so far   |
-| `total_bytes`    | int              | 0            | Total size of the file at the remote site  |
-| `error_type`     | str              |              | String version of the exception that caused an error during download |
-| `error`          | str              |              | String version of the traceback associated with an error |
-| `cancelled`      | bool             | False        | Set to true if the job was cancelled by the caller|
-
-Note that the MultiFileDownloadJob does not support the `priority`,
-`job_started`, `job_ended` or `content_type` attributes. You can get
-these from the individual download jobs in `download_parts`.
-
-
-### Callbacks
-
-Download jobs can be associated with a series of callbacks, each with
-the signature `Callable[["DownloadJob"], None]`. The callbacks are assigned
-using optional arguments `on_start`, `on_progress`, `on_complete` and
-`on_error`. When the corresponding event occurs, the callback wil be
-invoked and passed the job. The callback will be run in a `try:`
-context in the same thread as the download job. Any exceptions that
-occur during execution of the callback will be caught and converted
-into a log error message, thereby allowing the download to continue.
-
-#### `TqdmProgress`
-
-The `invokeai.app.services.download.download_default` module defines a
-class named `TqdmProgress` which can be used as an `on_progress`
-handler to display a completion bar in the console. Use as follows:
-
-```
-from invokeai.app.services.download import TqdmProgress
-
-download_queue.download(source='http://some.server.somewhere/some_file',
-                        dest='/tmp/downloads',
-                        on_progress=TqdmProgress().update
-                        )
-
-```
-
-### Events
-
-If the queue was initialized with the InvokeAI event bus (the case
-when using `ApiDependencies.invoker.services.download_queue`), then
-download events will also be issued on the bus. The events are:
-
-* `download_started` -- This is issued when a job is taken off the
-queue and a request is made to the remote server for the URL headers, but before any data
-has been downloaded. The event payload will contain the keys `source`
-and `download_path`. The latter contains the path that the URL will be
-downloaded to.
-
-* `download_progress -- This is issued periodically as the download
-runs. The payload contains the keys `source`, `download_path`,
-`current_bytes` and `total_bytes`. The latter two fields can be
-used to display the percent complete.
-
-* `download_complete` -- This is issued when the download completes
-successfully. The payload contains the keys `source`, `download_path`
-and `total_bytes`.
-
-* `download_error` -- This is issued when the download stops because
-of an error condition. The payload contains the fields `error_type`
-and `error`. The former is the text representation of the exception,
-and the latter is a traceback showing where the error occurred.
-
-### Job control
-
-To create a job call the queue's `download()` method. You can list all
-jobs using `list_jobs()`, fetch a single job by its with
-`id_to_job()`, cancel a running job with `cancel_job()`, cancel all
-running jobs with `cancel_all_jobs()`, and wait for all jobs to finish
-with `join()`.
-
-#### job = queue.download(source, dest, priority, access_token, on_start, on_progress, on_complete, on_cancelled, on_error)
-
-Create a new download job and put it on the queue, returning the
-DownloadJob object.
-
-#### multifile_job = queue.multifile_download(parts, dest, access_token, on_start, on_progress, on_complete, on_cancelled, on_error)
-
-This is similar to download(), but instead of taking a single source,
-it accepts a `parts` argument consisting of a list of
-`RemoteModelFile` objects. Each part corresponds to a URL/Path pair,
-where the URL is the location of the remote file, and the Path is the
-destination.
-
-`RemoteModelFile` can be imported from `invokeai.backend.model_manager.metadata`, and
-consists of a url/path pair. Note that the path *must* be relative.
-
-The method returns a `MultiFileDownloadJob`.
-
-
-```
-from invokeai.backend.model_manager.metadata import RemoteModelFile
-remote_file_1 = RemoteModelFile(url='http://www.foo.bar/my/pytorch_model.safetensors'',
-                                path='my_model/textencoder/pytorch_model.safetensors'
-			 			  )
-remote_file_2 = RemoteModelFile(url='http://www.bar.baz/vae.ckpt',
-                                path='my_model/vae/diffusers_model.safetensors'
-			 			  )
-job = queue.multifile_download(parts=[remote_file_1, remote_file_2],
-                               dest='/tmp/downloads',
-                               on_progress=TqdmProgress().update)
-queue.wait_for_job(job)
-print(f"The files were downloaded to {job.download_path}")
-```
-
-#### jobs = queue.list_jobs()
-
-Return a list of all active and inactive `DownloadJob`s.
-
-#### job = queue.id_to_job(id)
-
-Return the job corresponding to given ID.
-
-Return a list of all active and inactive `DownloadJob`s.
-
-#### queue.prune_jobs()
-
-Remove inactive (complete or errored) jobs from the listing returned
-by `list_jobs()`.
-
-#### queue.join()
-
-Block until all pending jobs have run to completion or errored out.

-# External Provider Integration
-
-This guide covers:
-
-1. Adding a new **external model** (most common; existing provider).
-2. Adding a brand-new **external provider** (adapter + config + UI wiring).
-
-## 1) Add a New External Model (Existing Provider)
-
-For provider-backed models (for example, OpenAI or Gemini), the source of truth is
-`invokeai/backend/model_manager/starter_models.py`.
-
-### Required model fields
-
-Define a `StarterModel` with:
-
-- `base=BaseModelType.External`
-- `type=ModelType.ExternalImageGenerator`
-- `format=ModelFormat.ExternalApi`
-- `source="external://<provider_id>/<provider_model_id>"`
-- `name`, `description`
-- `capabilities=ExternalModelCapabilities(...)`
-- optional `default_settings=ExternalApiModelDefaultSettings(...)`
-
-Example:
-
-```python
-new_external_model = StarterModel(
-    name="Provider Model Name",
-    base=BaseModelType.External,
-    source="external://openai/my-model-id",
-    description=(
-        "Provider model (external API). "
-        "Requires a configured OpenAI API key and may incur provider usage costs."
-    ),
-    type=ModelType.ExternalImageGenerator,
-    format=ModelFormat.ExternalApi,
-    capabilities=ExternalModelCapabilities(
-        modes=["txt2img", "img2img", "inpaint"],
-        supports_negative_prompt=False,
-        supports_seed=False,
-        supports_guidance=False,
-        supports_steps=False,
-        supports_reference_images=True,
-        max_images_per_request=4,
-    ),
-    default_settings=ExternalApiModelDefaultSettings(
-        width=1024,
-        height=1024,
-        num_images=1,
-    ),
-)
-```
-
-Then append it to `STARTER_MODELS`.
-
-### Required description text
-
-External starter model descriptions must clearly state:
-
-- an API key is required
-- usage may incur provider-side costs
-
-### Capabilities must be accurate
-
-These flags directly control UI visibility and request payload fields:
-
-- `supports_negative_prompt`
-- `supports_seed`
-- `supports_guidance`
-- `supports_steps`
-- `supports_reference_images`
-
-`supports_steps` is especially important: if `False`, steps are hidden for that model and `steps` is sent as `null`.
-
-### Source string stability
-
-Starter overrides are matched by `source` (`external://provider/model-id`). Keep this stable:
-
-- runtime capability/default overrides depend on it
-- installation detection in starter-model APIs depends on it
-
-`STARTER_MODELS` enforces unique `source` values with an assertion.
-
-### Install behavior notes
-
-- External starter models are managed in **External Providers** setup (not the regular Starter Models tab).
-- External starter models auto-install when a provider is configured.
-- Removing a provider API key removes installed external models for that provider.
-
-## 2) Credentials and Config
-
-External provider API keys are stored separately from `invokeai.yaml`:
-
-- default file: `~/invokeai/api_keys.yaml`
-- resolved path: `<INVOKEAI_ROOT>/api_keys.yaml`
-
-Non-secret provider settings (for example base URL overrides) stay in `invokeai.yaml`.
-
-Environment variables are still supported, e.g.:
-
-- `INVOKEAI_EXTERNAL_GEMINI_API_KEY`
-- `INVOKEAI_EXTERNAL_OPENAI_API_KEY`
-
-## 3) Add a New Provider (Only If Needed)
-
-If your model uses a provider that is not already integrated:
-
-1. Add config fields in `invokeai/app/services/config/config_default.py`
-   `external_<provider>_api_key` and optional `external_<provider>_base_url`.
-2. Add provider field mapping in `invokeai/app/api/routers/app_info.py`
-   (`EXTERNAL_PROVIDER_FIELDS`).
-3. Implement provider adapter in `invokeai/app/services/external_generation/providers/`
-   by subclassing `ExternalProvider`.
-4. Register the provider in `invokeai/app/api/dependencies.py` when building
-   `ExternalGenerationService`.
-5. Add starter model entries using `source="external://<provider>/<model-id>"`.
-6. Optional UI ordering tweak:
-   `invokeai/frontend/web/src/features/modelManagerV2/subpanels/AddModelPanel/ExternalProviders/ExternalProvidersForm.tsx`
-   (`PROVIDER_SORT_ORDER`).
-
-## 4) Optional Manual Installation
-
-You can also install external models directly via:
-
-`POST /api/v2/models/install?source=external://<provider_id>/<provider_model_id>`
-
-If omitted, `path`, `source`, and `hash` are auto-populated for external model configs.
-Set capabilities conservatively; the external generation service enforces capability checks at runtime.

-# Hotkeys System
-
-This document describes the technical implementation of the customizable hotkeys system in InvokeAI.
-
-> **Note:** For user-facing documentation on how to use customizable hotkeys, see [Hotkeys Feature Documentation](../features/hotkeys.md).
-
-## Overview
-
-The hotkeys system allows users to customize keyboard shortcuts throughout the application. All hotkeys are:
-- Centrally defined and managed
-- Customizable by users
-- Persisted across sessions
-- Type-safe and validated
-
-## Architecture
-
-The customizable hotkeys feature is built on top of the existing hotkey system with the following components:
-
-### 1. Hotkeys State Slice (`hotkeysSlice.ts`)
-
-Location: `invokeai/frontend/web/src/features/system/store/hotkeysSlice.ts`
-
-**Responsibilities:**
-- Stores custom hotkey mappings in Redux state
-- Persisted to IndexedDB using `redux-remember`
-- Provides actions to change, reset individual, or reset all hotkeys
-
-**State Shape:**
-```typescript
-{
-  _version: 1,
-  customHotkeys: {
-    'app.invoke': ['mod+enter'],
-    'canvas.undo': ['mod+z'],
-    // ...
-  }
-}
-```
-
-**Actions:**
-- `hotkeyChanged(id, hotkeys)` - Update a single hotkey
-- `hotkeyReset(id)` - Reset a single hotkey to default
-- `allHotkeysReset()` - Reset all hotkeys to defaults
-
-### 2. useHotkeyData Hook (`useHotkeyData.ts`)
-
-Location: `invokeai/frontend/web/src/features/system/components/HotkeysModal/useHotkeyData.ts`
-
-**Responsibilities:**
-- Defines all default hotkeys
-- Merges default hotkeys with custom hotkeys from the store
-- Returns the effective hotkeys that should be used throughout the app
-- Provides platform-specific key translations (Ctrl/Cmd, Alt/Option)
-
-**Key Functions:**
-- `useHotkeyData()` - Returns all hotkeys organized by category
-- `useRegisteredHotkeys()` - Hook to register a hotkey in a component
-
-### 3. HotkeyEditor Component (`HotkeyEditor.tsx`)
-
-Location: `invokeai/frontend/web/src/features/system/components/HotkeysModal/HotkeyEditor.tsx`
-
-**Features:**
-- Inline editor with input field
-- Modifier buttons (Mod, Ctrl, Shift, Alt) for quick insertion
-- Live preview of hotkey combinations
-- Validation with visual feedback
-- Help tooltip with syntax examples
-- Save/cancel/reset buttons
-
-**Smart Features:**
-- Automatic `+` insertion between modifiers
-- Cursor position preservation
-- Validation prevents invalid combinations (e.g., modifier-only keys)
-
-### 4. HotkeysModal Component (`HotkeysModal.tsx`)
-
-Location: `invokeai/frontend/web/src/features/system/components/HotkeysModal/HotkeysModal.tsx`
-
-**Features:**
-- View Mode / Edit Mode toggle
-- Search functionality
-- Category-based organization
-- Shows HotkeyEditor components when in edit mode
-- "Reset All to Default" button in edit mode
-
-## Data Flow
-
-```
-┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐

-│ 5. User clicks save or presses Enter                        │
-│ 6. Custom hotkey stored via hotkeyChanged() action          │
-│ 7. Redux state persisted to IndexedDB (redux-remember)      │

-│ 9. All components using useRegisteredHotkeys() get update   │
-└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
-```
-
-## Hotkey Format
-
-Hotkeys use the format from `react-hotkeys-hook` library:
-
-- **Modifiers:** `mod`, `ctrl`, `shift`, `alt`, `meta`
-- **Keys:** Letters, numbers, function keys, special keys
-- **Separator:** `+` between keys in a combination
-- **Multiple hotkeys:** Comma-separated (e.g., `mod+a, ctrl+b`)
-
-**Examples:**
-- `mod+enter` - Mod key + Enter
-- `shift+x` - Shift + X
-- `ctrl+shift+a` - Control + Shift + A
-- `f1, f2` - F1 or F2 (alternatives)
-
-## Developer Guide
-
-### Using Hotkeys in Components
-
-To use a hotkey in a component:
-
-```tsx
-import { useRegisteredHotkeys } from 'features/system/components/HotkeysModal/useHotkeyData';
-
-const MyComponent = () => {
-  const handleAction = useCallback(() => {
-    // Your action here
-  }, []);
-
-  // This automatically uses custom hotkeys if configured
-  useRegisteredHotkeys({
-    id: 'myAction',
-    category: 'app', // or 'canvas', 'viewer', 'gallery', 'workflows'
-    callback: handleAction,
-    options: { enabled: true, preventDefault: true },
-    dependencies: [handleAction]
-  });
-
-  // ...
-};
-```
-
-**Options:**
-- `enabled` - Whether the hotkey is active
-- `preventDefault` - Prevent default browser behavior
-- `enableOnFormTags` - Allow hotkey in form elements (default: false)
-
-### Adding New Hotkeys
-
-To add a new hotkey to the system:
-
-#### 1. Add Translation Strings
-
-In `invokeai/frontend/web/public/locales/en.json`:
-
-```json
-{
-  "hotkeys": {
-    "app": {
-      "myAction": {
-        "title": "My Action",
-        "desc": "Description of what this hotkey does"
-      }
-    }
-  }
-}
-```
-
-#### 2. Register the Hotkey
-
-In `invokeai/frontend/web/src/features/system/components/HotkeysModal/useHotkeyData.ts`:
-
-```typescript
-// Inside the appropriate category builder function
-addHotkey('app', 'myAction', ['mod+k']); // Default binding
-```
-
-#### 3. Use the Hotkey
-
-In your component:
-
-```typescript
-useRegisteredHotkeys({
-  id: 'myAction',
-  category: 'app',
-  callback: handleMyAction,
-  options: { enabled: true },
-  dependencies: [handleMyAction]
-});
-```
-
-### Hotkey Categories
-
-Current categories:
-- **app** - Global application hotkeys
-- **canvas** - Canvas/drawing operations
-- **viewer** - Image viewer operations
-- **gallery** - Gallery/image grid operations
-- **workflows** - Node workflow editor
-
-To add a new category, update `useHotkeyData.ts` and add translations.
-
-## Testing
-
-Tests are located in `invokeai/frontend/web/src/features/system/store/hotkeysSlice.test.ts`.
-
-**Test Coverage:**
-- Adding custom hotkeys
-- Updating existing custom hotkeys
-- Resetting individual hotkeys
-- Resetting all hotkeys
-- State persistence and migration
-
-Run tests with:
-
-```bash
-cd invokeai/frontend/web
-pnpm test:no-watch
-```
-
-## Persistence
-
-Custom hotkeys are persisted using the same mechanism as other app settings:
-
-- Stored in Redux state under the `hotkeys` slice
-- Persisted to IndexedDB via `redux-remember`
-- Automatically loaded when the app starts
-- Survives page refreshes and browser restarts
-- Includes migration support for state schema changes
-
-**State Location:**
-- IndexedDB database: `invoke`
-- Store key: `hotkeys`
-
-## Dependencies
-
-- **react-hotkeys-hook** (v4.5.0) - Core hotkey handling
-- **@reduxjs/toolkit** - State management
-- **redux-remember** - Persistence
-- **zod** - State validation
-
-## Best Practices
-
-1. **Use `mod` instead of `ctrl`** - Automatically maps to Cmd on Mac, Ctrl elsewhere
-2. **Provide descriptive translations** - Help users understand what each hotkey does
-3. **Avoid conflicts** - Check existing hotkeys before adding new ones
-4. **Use preventDefault** - Prevent browser default behavior when appropriate
-5. **Check enabled state** - Only activate hotkeys when the action is available
-6. **Use dependencies correctly** - Ensure callbacks are stable with useCallback
-
-## Common Patterns
-
-### Conditional Hotkeys
-
-```typescript
-useRegisteredHotkeys({
-  id: 'save',
-  category: 'app',
-  callback: handleSave,
-  options: {
-    enabled: hasUnsavedChanges && !isLoading, // Only when valid
-    preventDefault: true
-  },
-  dependencies: [hasUnsavedChanges, isLoading, handleSave]
-});
-```
-
-### Multiple Hotkeys for Same Action
-
-```typescript
-// In useHotkeyData.ts
-addHotkey('canvas', 'redo', ['mod+shift+z', 'mod+y']); // Two alternatives
-```
-
-### Focus-Scoped Hotkeys
-
-```typescript
-import { useFocusRegion } from 'common/hooks/focus';
-
-const MyComponent = () => {
-  const focusRegionRef = useFocusRegion('myRegion');
-
-  // Hotkey only works when this region has focus
-  useRegisteredHotkeys({
-    id: 'myAction',
-    category: 'app',
-    callback: handleAction,
-    options: { enabled: true }
-  });
-
-  return <div ref={focusRegionRef}>...</div>;
-};
-```

-# Pull Request Merge Policy
-
-This document outlines the process for reviewing and merging pull requests (PRs) into the InvokeAI repository.
-
-## Review Process
-
-### 1. Assignment
-
-One of the repository maintainers will assign collaborators to review a pull request. The assigned reviewer(s) will be responsible for conducting the code review.
-
-### 2. Review and Iteration
-
-The assignee is responsible for:
-- Reviewing the PR thoroughly
-- Providing constructive feedback
-- Iterating with the PR author until the assignee is satisfied that the PR is fit to merge
-- Ensuring the PR meets code quality standards, follows project conventions, and doesn't introduce bugs or regressions
-
-### 3. Approval and Notification
-
-Once the assignee is satisfied with the PR:
-- The assignee approves the PR
-- The assignee alerts one of the maintainers that the PR is ready for merge using the **#request-reviews Discord channel**
-
-### 4. Final Merge
-
-One of the maintainers is responsible for:
-- Performing a final check of the PR
-- Merging the PR into the appropriate branch
-
-**Important:** Collaborators are strongly discouraged from merging PRs on their own, except in case of emergency (e.g., critical bug fix and no maintainer is available).
-
-### 5. Release Policy
-
-Once a feature release candidate is published, no feature PRs are to
-be merged into main. Only bugfixes are allowed until the final
-release.
-
-## Best Practices
-
-### Clean Commit History
-
-To encourage a clean development log, PR authors are encouraged to use `git rebase -i` to suppress trivial commit messages (e.g., `ruff` and `prettier` formatting fixes) after the PR is accepted but before it is merged.
-
-### Merge Strategy
-
-The maintainer will perform either a **3-way merge** or **squash merge** when merging a PR into the `main` branch. This approach helps avoid rebase conflict hell and maintains a cleaner project history.
-
-### Attribution
-
-The PR author should reference any papers, source code or
-documentation that they used while creating the code both in the PR
-and as comments in the code itself. If there are any licensing
-restrictions, these should be linked to and/or reproduced in the repo
-root.
-
-
-## Summary
-
-This policy ensures that:
-- All PRs receive proper review from assigned collaborators
-- Maintainers have final oversight before code enters the main branch
-- The commit history remains clean and meaningful
-- Merge conflicts are minimized through appropriate merge strategies

-# Recall Parameters API - LoRAs, ControlNets, and IP Adapters with Images
-
-## Overview
-
-The Recall Parameters API supports recalling LoRAs, ControlNets (including T2I Adapters and Control LoRAs), and IP Adapters along with their associated weights and settings. Control Layers and IP Adapters can now include image references from the `INVOKEAI_ROOT/outputs/images` directory for fully functional control and image prompt functionality.
-
-## Key Features
-
-✅ **LoRAs**: Fully functional - adds to UI, queries model configs, applies weights
-✅ **Control Layers**: Full support with optional images from outputs/images
-✅ **IP Adapters**: Full support with optional reference images from outputs/images
-✅ **Model Name Resolution**: Automatic lookup from human-readable names to internal keys
-✅ **Image Validation**: Backend validates that image files exist before sending
-
-## Endpoints
-
-### POST `/api/v1/recall/{queue_id}`
-
-Updates recallable parameters for the frontend, including LoRAs, control adapters, and IP adapters with optional images.
-
-**Path Parameters:**
-- `queue_id` (string): The queue ID to associate parameters with (typically "default")
-
-**Request Body:**
-
-All fields are optional. Include only the parameters you want to update.

-```
-
-## Model Name Resolution
-
-The backend automatically resolves model names to their internal keys:
-
-1. **Main Models**: Resolved from the name to the model key
-2. **LoRAs**: Searched in the LoRA model database
-3. **Control Adapters**: Tried in order - ControlNet → T2I Adapter → Control LoRA
-4. **IP Adapters**: Searched in the IP Adapter model database
-
-Models that cannot be resolved are skipped with a warning in the logs.
-
-## Image File Handling
-
-### Image Path Resolution
-
-When you specify an `image_name`, the backend:
-1. Constructs the full path: `{INVOKEAI_ROOT}/outputs/images/{image_name}`
-2. Validates that the file exists
-3. Includes the image reference in the event sent to the frontend
-4. Logs whether the image was found or not
-
-### Image Naming
-
-Images should be referenced by their filename as it appears in the outputs/images directory:
-- ✅ Correct: `"image_name": "example.png"`
-- ✅ Correct: `"image_name": "my_control_image_20240110.jpg"`
-- ❌ Incorrect: `"image_name": "outputs/images/example.png"`  (use relative filename only)
-- ❌ Incorrect: `"image_name": "/full/path/to/example.png"`   (use relative filename only)
-
-## Frontend Behavior
-
-### LoRAs
-- **Fully Supported**: LoRAs are immediately added to the LoRA list in the UI
-- Existing LoRAs are cleared before adding new ones
-- Each LoRA's model config is fetched and applied with the specified weight
-- LoRAs appear in the LoRA selector panel
-
-### Control Layers with Images
-- **Fully Supported**: Control layers now support images from outputs/images
-- Configuration includes model, weights, step percentages, and image reference
-- Image availability is logged in frontend console
-- Images can be used to create actual control layers through the UI
-
-### IP Adapters with Images
-- **Fully Supported**: IP Adapters now support reference images from outputs/images
-- Configuration includes model, weights, step percentages, method, and image reference
-- Image availability is logged in frontend console
-- Images can be used to create actual reference image layers through the UI

-
-## WebSocket Events
-
-When parameters are updated, a `recall_parameters_updated` event is emitted via WebSocket to the queue room. The frontend automatically:
-
-1. Applies standard parameters (prompts, steps, dimensions, etc.)
-2. Loads and adds LoRAs to the LoRA list
-3. Logs control layer and IP adapter configurations with image information
-4. Makes image references available for manual canvas/reference image creation
-
-## Logging
-
-### Backend Logs
-
-Backend logs show:
-- Model name → key resolution (success/failure)
-- Image file validation (found/not found)
-- Parameter storage confirmation
-- Event emission status
-
-Example log messages:
-```
-INFO: Resolved ControlNet model name 'controlnet-canny-sdxl-1.0' to key 'controlnet-xyz...'
-INFO: Found image file: depth_map.png
-INFO: Updated 12 recall parameters for queue default
-INFO: Resolved 1 LoRA(s)
-INFO: Resolved 1 control layer(s)
-INFO: Resolved 1 IP adapter(s)
-```
-
-### Frontend Logs
-
-Frontend logs (check browser console):
-- Set `localStorage.ROARR_FILTER = 'debug'` to see all debug messages
-- Look for messages from the `events` namespace
-- LoRA loading, model resolution, and parameter application are logged
-
-Example log messages:
-```
-INFO: Applied 5 recall parameters to store
-INFO: Received 1 control layer(s) with image support
-INFO: Control layer 1: controlnet-xyz... (weight: 0.75, image: depth_map.png)
-DEBUG: Control layer 1 image available at: outputs/images/depth_map.png
-INFO: Received 1 IP adapter(s) with image support
-INFO: IP adapter 1: ip-adapter-xyz... (weight: 0.7, image: style_reference.png)
-DEBUG: IP adapter 1 image available at: outputs/images/style_reference.png
-```
-
-## Limitations
-
-1. **Canvas Integration**: Control layers and IP adapters with images are currently logged but not automatically added to canvas layers
-   - Users can view the configuration and manually create canvas layers with the provided images
-   - Future enhancement: Auto-create canvas layers with stored images
-
-2. **Model Availability**: Models must be installed in InvokeAI before they can be recalled
-
-3. **Image Availability**: Images must exist in the outputs/images directory
-   - Missing images are logged as warnings but don't fail the request
-   - Other parameters are still applied even if images are missing
-
-4. **Image URLs**: Only local filenames from outputs/images are supported
-   - Remote image URLs are not currently supported
-
-## Testing
-
-Use the provided test script:
-
-```bash
-./test_recall_loras_controlnets.sh
-```
-
-This will test:
-- LoRA addition with multiple models
-- Control layer configuration with image references
-- IP adapter configuration with image references
-- Combined parameter updates with all features
-
-Note: Update the image names in the test script to match actual images in your outputs/images directory.
-
-## Troubleshooting
-
-### Images Not Found
-
-If you see "Image file not found" in the logs:
-1. Verify the image filename matches exactly (case-sensitive)
-2. Ensure the image is in `{INVOKEAI_ROOT}/outputs/images/`
-3. Check that the filename doesn't include the `outputs/images/` prefix
-
-### Models Not Found
-
-If you see "Could not find model" messages:
-1. Verify the model name matches exactly (case-sensitive)
-2. Ensure the model is installed in InvokeAI
-3. Check the model name using the models browser in the UI
-
-### Event Not Received
-
-If the frontend doesn't receive the event:
-1. Check browser console for connection errors
-2. Verify the queue_id matches the frontend's queue (usually "default")
-3. Check backend logs for event emission errors
-
-## Future Enhancements
-
-Potential improvements:
-1. Auto-create canvas layers with provided control layer images
-2. Auto-create reference image layers with provided IP adapter images
-3. Support for image URLs
-4. Batch operations for multiple queue IDs
-5. Image upload capability (accept base64 or file upload)

-# Recall Parameters API
-
-## Overview
-
-A new REST API endpoint has been added to the InvokeAI backend that allows programmatic updates to recallable parameters from another process. This enables external applications or scripts to modify frontend parameters like prompts, models, and step counts via HTTP requests.
-
-When parameters are updated via the API, the backend automatically broadcasts a WebSocket event to all connected frontend clients subscribed to that queue, causing them to update immediately.
-
-## How It Works
-
-1. **API Request**: External application sends a POST request with parameters to update
-2. **Storage**: Parameters are stored in client state persistence, associated with a queue ID
-3. **Broadcast**: A WebSocket event (`recall_parameters_updated`) is emitted to all frontend clients listening to that queue
-4. **Frontend Update**: Connected frontend clients receive the event and can process the updated parameters
-5. **Immediate Display**: The frontend UI updates automatically with the new values
-
-This means if you have the InvokeAI frontend open in a browser, updating parameters via the API will instantly reflect on the screen without any manual action needed.
-
-## Endpoint
-
-**Base URL**: `http://localhost:9090/api/v1/recall/{queue_id}`
-
-## POST - Update Recall Parameters
-
-Updates recallable parameters for a given queue ID.
-
-### Request

-```
-
-### Using Python
-
-```python
-import requests
-import json
-
-# Configuration
-API_URL = "http://localhost:9090/api/v1/recall/default"
-
-# Update multiple parameters
-params = {
-    "positive_prompt": "a serene forest",
-    "negative_prompt": "people, buildings",
-    "steps": 25,
-    "cfg_scale": 7.0,
-    "seed": 42
-}
-
-response = requests.post(API_URL, json=params)
-result = response.json()
-
-print(f"Status: {result['status']}")
-print(f"Updated {result['updated_count']} parameters")
-print(json.dumps(result['parameters'], indent=2))
-```
-
-### Using Node.js/JavaScript
-
-```javascript
-const API_URL = 'http://localhost:9090/api/v1/recall/default';
-
-const params = {
-  positive_prompt: 'a beautiful sunset',
-  negative_prompt: 'blurry',
-  steps: 20,
-  width: 768,
-  height: 768,
-  seed: 12345
-};
-
-fetch(API_URL, {
-  method: 'POST',
-  headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' },
-  body: JSON.stringify(params)
-})
-  .then(res => res.json())
-  .then(data => console.log(data));
-```
-
-## Implementation Details
-
-- Parameters are stored in the client state persistence service, using keys prefixed with `recall_`
-- The parameters are associated with a `queue_id`, allowing multiple concurrent sessions to maintain separate parameter sets
-- Only non-null parameters are processed and stored
-- The endpoint provides validation for numeric ranges (e.g., steps ≥ 1, dimensions ≥ 64)
-- All parameter values are JSON-serialized for storage
-- When parameter values are changed, the backend generates a web sockets event that the frontend listens to.
-
-## Integration with Frontend
-
-The stored parameters can be accessed by the frontend through the
-existing client state API or by implementing hooks that read from the
-recall parameter storage. This allows external applications to
-pre-populate generation parameters before the user initiates image
-generation.
-
-## Error Handling
-
-- **400 Bad Request**: Invalid parameters or parameter values
-- **500 Internal Server Error**: Server-side error storing or retrieving parameters
-
-Errors include detailed messages explaining what went wrong.

+The UI is a fairly straightforward Typescript React app, with the Unified Canvas being more complex.
+
+Code is located in `invokeai/frontend/web/` for review.
+
+## Stack
+
+State management is Redux via [Redux Toolkit](https://github.com/reduxjs/redux-toolkit). We lean heavily on RTK:
+
+- `createAsyncThunk` for HTTP requests
+- `createEntityAdapter` for fetching images and models
+- `createListenerMiddleware` for workflows
+
+The API client and associated types are generated from the OpenAPI schema. See API_CLIENT.md.
+
+Communication with server is a mix of HTTP and [socket.io](https://github.com/socketio/socket.io-client) (with a simple socket.io redux middleware to help).
+
+[Chakra-UI](https://github.com/chakra-ui/chakra-ui) & [Mantine](https://github.com/mantinedev/mantine) for components and styling.
+
+[Konva](https://github.com/konvajs/react-konva) for the canvas, but we are pushing the limits of what is feasible with it (and HTML canvas in general). We plan to rebuild it with [PixiJS](https://github.com/pixijs/pixijs) to take advantage of WebGL's improved raster handling.
+
+[Vite](https://vitejs.dev/) for bundling.
+
+Localisation is via [i18next](https://github.com/i18next/react-i18next), but translation happens on our [Weblate](https://hosted.weblate.org/engage/invokeai/) project. Only the English source strings should be changed on this repo.
+
+## Contributing
+
+Thanks for your interest in contributing to the InvokeAI Web UI!
+
+We encourage you to ping @psychedelicious and @blessedcoolant on [Discord](https://discord.gg/ZmtBAhwWhy) if you want to contribute, just to touch base and ensure your work doesn't conflict with anything else going on. The project is very active.
+
+### Dev Environment
+
+**Setup** 
+
+1. Install [node](https://nodejs.org/en/download/). You can confirm node is installed with:
+```bash
+node --version
+```
+2. Install [yarn classic](https://classic.yarnpkg.com/lang/en/) and confirm it is installed by running this:
+```bash
+npm install --global yarn
+yarn --version
+```
+
+From `invokeai/frontend/web/` run `yarn install` to get everything set up.
+
+Start everything in dev mode:
+1. Ensure your virtual environment is running
+2. Start the dev server: `yarn dev`
+3. Start the InvokeAI Nodes backend: `python scripts/invokeai-web.py # run from the repo root`
+4. Point your browser to the dev server address e.g. [http://localhost:5173/](http://localhost:5173/)
+
+### VSCode Remote Dev
+
+We've noticed an intermittent issue with the VSCode Remote Dev port forwarding. If you use this feature of VSCode, you may intermittently click the Invoke button and then get nothing until the request times out. Suggest disabling the IDE's port forwarding feature and doing it manually via SSH:
+
+`ssh -L 9090:localhost:9090 -L 5173:localhost:5173 user@host`
+
+### Production builds
+
+For a number of technical and logistical reasons, we need to commit UI build artefacts to the repo.
+
+If you submit a PR, there is a good chance we will ask you to include a separate commit with a build of the app.
+
+To build for production, run `yarn build`.

 ## How do I make a contribution?
 
 Never made an open source contribution before? Wondering how contributions work in our project? Here's a quick rundown!
 
 Before starting these steps, ensure you have your local environment [configured for development](../LOCAL_DEVELOPMENT.md).
 
-1. Find a [good first issue](https://github.com/invoke-ai/InvokeAI/contribute) that you are interested in addressing or a feature that you would like to add. Then, reach out to our team in the [#dev-chat](https://discord.com/channels/1020123559063990373/1049495067846524939) channel of the Discord to ensure you are setup for success.

 2. Fork the [InvokeAI](https://github.com/invoke-ai/InvokeAI) repository to your GitHub profile. This means that you will have a copy of the repository under **your-GitHub-username/InvokeAI**.
 3. Clone the repository to your local machine using:
-
-    ```bash
-    git clone https://github.com/your-GitHub-username/InvokeAI.git
-    ```
-
-If you're unfamiliar with using Git through the commandline, [GitHub Desktop](https://desktop.github.com) is a easy-to-use alternative with a UI. You can do all the same steps listed here, but through the interface. 4. Create a new branch for your fix using:
-
-  ```bash
-  git checkout -b branch-name-here
-  ```
-

+4. Create a new branch for your fix using:
+```bash
+git checkout -b branch-name-here
+```
 5. Make the appropriate changes for the issue you are trying to address or the feature that you want to add.
 6. Add the file contents of the changed files to the "snapshot" git uses to manage the state of the project, also known as the index:
-
-    ```bash
-    git add -A
-    ```
-
+```bash
+git add -A
+```
 7. Store the contents of the index with a descriptive message.
-
-    ```bash
-    git commit -m "Insert a short message of the changes made here"
-    ```
-
+```bash
+git commit -m "Insert a short message of the changes made here"
+```
 8. Push the changes to the remote repository using
-
-    ```bash
-    git push origin branch-name-here
-    ```
-
+```bash
+git push origin branch-name-here
+```
 9. Submit a pull request to the **main** branch of the InvokeAI repository. If you're not sure how to, [follow this guide](https://docs.github.com/en/pull-requests/collaborating-with-pull-requests/proposing-changes-to-your-work-with-pull-requests/creating-a-pull-request)
 10. Title the pull request with a short description of the changes made and the issue or bug number associated with your change. For example, you can title an issue like so "Added more log outputting to resolve #1234".
 11. In the description of the pull request, explain the changes that you made, any issues you think exist with the pull request you made, and any questions you have for the maintainer. It's OK if your pull request is not perfect (no pull request is), the reviewer will be able to help you fix any problems and improve it!

-# Dev Environment
-
-To make changes to Invoke's backend, frontend or documentation, you'll need to set up a dev environment.
-
-If you only want to make changes to the docs site, you can skip the frontend dev environment setup as described in the below guide.
-
-If you just want to use Invoke, you should use the [launcher][launcher link].
-
-!!! warning
-
-    Invoke uses a SQLite database. When you run the application as a dev install, you accept responsibility for your database. This means making regular backups (especially before pulling) and/or fixing it yourself in the event that a PR introduces a schema change.
-
-    If you don't need to persist your db, you can use an ephemeral in-memory database by setting `use_memory_db: true` in your `invokeai.yaml` file. You'll also want to set `scan_models_on_startup: true` so that your models are registered on startup.
-
-## Setup
-
-1. Run through the [requirements][requirements link].
-
-2. [Fork and clone][forking link] the [InvokeAI repo][repo link].
-
-3. This repository uses Git LFS to manage large files. To ensure all assets are downloaded:
-      - Install git-lfs → [Download here](https://git-lfs.com/)
-      - Enable automatic LFS fetching for this repository:
-        ```shell
-        git config lfs.fetchinclude "*"
-        ```
-        - Fetch files from LFS (only needs to be done once; subsequent `git pull` will fetch changes automatically):
-        ```
-        git lfs pull
-        ```
-4. Create an directory for user data (images, models, db, etc). This is typically at `~/invokeai`, but if you already have a non-dev install, you may want to create a separate directory for the dev install.
-
-5. Follow the [manual install][manual install link] guide, with some modifications to the install command:
-
-      - Use `.` instead of `invokeai` to install from the current directory. You don't need to specify the version.
-
-      - Add `-e` after the `install` operation to make this an [editable install][editable install link]. That means your changes to the python code will be reflected when you restart the Invoke server.
-
-      - When installing the `invokeai` package, add the `dev`, `test` and `docs` package options to the package specifier. You may or may not need the `xformers` option - follow the manual install guide to figure that out. So, your package specifier will be either `".[dev,test,docs]"` or `".[dev,test,docs,xformers]"`. Note the quotes!
-
-     With the modifications made, the install command should look something like this:
-
-      ```sh
-      uv pip install -e ".[dev,test,docs,xformers]" --python 3.12 --python-preference only-managed --index=https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu128 --reinstall
-      ```
-
-6. At this point, you should have Invoke installed, a venv set up and activated, and the server running. But you will see a warning in the terminal that no UI was found. If you go to the URL for the server, you won't get a UI.
-
-      This is because the UI build is not distributed with the source code. You need to build it manually. End the running server instance.
-
-      If you only want to edit the docs, you can stop here and skip to the **Documentation** section below.
-
-7. Install the frontend dev toolchain, paying attention to versions:
-
-      - [`nodejs`](https://nodejs.org/) (tested on LTS, v22)
-
-      - [`pnpm`](https://pnpm.io/installation) (tested on v10)
-
-8. Do a production build of the frontend:
-
-      ```sh
-      cd <PATH_TO_INVOKEAI_REPO>/invokeai/frontend/web
-      pnpm i
-      pnpm build
-      ```
-
-9. Restart the server and navigate to the URL. You should get a UI. After making changes to the python code, restart the server to see those changes.
-
-## Updating the UI
-
-You'll need to run `pnpm build` every time you pull in new changes.
-
-Another option is to skip the build and instead run the UI in dev mode:
-
-```sh
-pnpm dev
-```
-
-This starts a vite dev server for the UI at `127.0.0.1:5173`, which you will use instead of `127.0.0.1:9090`.
-
-The dev mode is substantially slower than the production build but may be more convenient if you just need to test things out. It will hot-reload the UI as you make changes to the frontend code. Sometimes the hot-reload doesn't work, and you need to manually refresh the browser tab.
-
-## Documentation
-
-The documentation is built with `mkdocs`. It provides a hot-reload dev server for the docs. Start it with `mkdocs serve`.

-# Canvas Text Tool
-
-## Overview
-
-The canvas text workflow is split between a Konva module that owns tool state and a React overlay that handles text entry.
-
-- `invokeai/frontend/web/src/features/controlLayers/konva/CanvasTool/CanvasTextToolModule.ts`
-  - Owns the tool, cursor preview, and text session state (including the cursor "T" marker).
-  - Manages dynamic cursor contrast, starts sessions on pointer down, and commits sessions by rasterizing the active text block into a new raster layer.
-- `invokeai/frontend/web/src/features/controlLayers/components/Text/CanvasTextOverlay.tsx`
-  - Renders the on-canvas editor as a `contentEditable` overlay positioned in canvas space.
-  - Syncs keyboard input, suppresses app hotkeys, and forwards commits/cancels to the Konva module.
-- `invokeai/frontend/web/src/features/controlLayers/components/Text/TextToolOptions.tsx`
-  - Provides the font dropdown, size slider/input, formatting toggles, and alignment buttons that appear when the Text tool is active.
-
-## Rasterization pipeline
-
-`renderTextToCanvas()` (`invokeai/frontend/web/src/features/controlLayers/text/textRenderer.ts`) converts the editor contents into a transparent canvas. The Text tool module configures the renderer with the active font stack, weight, styling flags, alignment, and the active canvas color. The resulting canvas is encoded to a PNG data URL and stored in a new raster layer (`image` object) with a transparent background.
-
-Layer placement preserves the original click location:
-
-- The session stores the anchor coordinate (where the user clicked) and current alignment.
-- `calculateLayerPosition()` calculates the top-left position for the raster layer after applying the configured padding and alignment offsets.
-- New layers are inserted directly above the currently-selected raster layer (when present) and selected automatically.
-
-## Font stacks
-
-Font definitions live in `invokeai/frontend/web/src/features/controlLayers/text/textConstants.ts` as ten deterministic stacks (sans, serif, mono, rounded, script, humanist, slab serif, display, narrow, UI serif). Each stack lists system-safe fallbacks so the editor can choose the first available font per platform.
-
-To add or adjust fonts:
-
-1. Update `TEXT_FONT_STACKS` with the new `id`, `label`, and CSS `font-family` stack.
-2. If you add a new stack, extend the `TEXT_FONT_IDS` tuple and update the `canvasTextSlice` schema default (`TEXT_DEFAULT_FONT_ID`).
-3. Provide translation strings for any new labels in `public/locales/*`.
-4. The editor and renderer will automatically pick up the new stack via `getFontStackById()`.

-# Invoke UI
-
-Invoke's UI is made possible by many contributors and open-source libraries. Thank you!
-
-## Dev environment
-
-Follow the [dev environment](../dev-environment.md) guide to get set up. Run the UI using `pnpm dev`.
-
-## Package scripts
-
-- `dev`: run the frontend in dev mode, enabling hot reloading
-- `build`: run all checks (dpdm, eslint, prettier, tsc, knip) and then build the frontend
-- `lint:dpdm`: check circular dependencies
-- `lint:eslint`: check code quality
-- `lint:prettier`: check code formatting
-- `lint:tsc`: check type issues
-- `lint:knip`: check for unused exports or objects
-- `lint`: run all checks concurrently
-- `fix`: run `eslint` and `prettier`, fixing fixable issues
-- `test:ui`: run `vitest` with the fancy web UI
-
-## Type generation
-
-We use [openapi-typescript] to generate types from the app's OpenAPI schema. The generated types are committed to the repo in [schema.ts].
-
-If you make backend changes, it's important to regenerate the frontend types:
-
-```sh
-cd invokeai/frontend/web && python ../../../scripts/generate_openapi_schema.py | pnpm typegen
-```
-
-On macOS and Linux, you can run `make frontend-typegen` as a shortcut for the above snippet.
-
-## Localization
-
-We use [i18next] for localization, but translation to languages other than English happens on our [Weblate] project.
-
-Only the English source strings (i.e. `en.json`) should be changed on this repo.
-
-## VSCode
-
-### Example debugger config
-
-```jsonc
-{
-  "version": "0.2.0",
-  "configurations": [
-    {
-      "type": "chrome",
-      "request": "launch",
-      "name": "Invoke UI",
-      "url": "http://localhost:5173",
-      "webRoot": "${workspaceFolder}/invokeai/frontend/web"
-    }
-  ]
-}
-```
-
-### Remote dev
-
-We've noticed an intermittent timeout issue with the VSCode remote dev port forwarding.
-
-We suggest disabling the editor's port forwarding feature and doing it manually via SSH:
-
-```sh
-ssh -L 9090:localhost:9090 -L 5173:localhost:5173 user@host
-```
-
-## Contributing Guidelines
-
-Thanks for your interest in contributing to the Invoke Web UI!
-
-Please follow these guidelines when contributing.
-
-## Check in before investing your time
-
-Please check in before you invest your time on anything besides a trivial fix, in case it conflicts with ongoing work or isn't aligned with the vision for the app.
-
-If a feature request or issue doesn't already exist for the thing you want to work on, please create one.
-
-Ping `@psychedelicious` on [discord] in the `#frontend-dev` channel or in the feature request / issue you want to work on - we're happy to chat.
-
-## Code conventions
-
-- This is a fairly complex app with a deep component tree. Please use memoization (`useCallback`, `useMemo`, `memo`) with enthusiasm.
-- If you need to add some global, ephemeral state, please use [nanostores] if possible.
-- Be careful with your redux selectors. If they need to be parameterized, consider creating them inside a `useMemo`.
-- Feel free to use `lodash` (via `lodash-es`) to make the intent of your code clear.
-- Please add comments describing the "why", not the "how" (unless it is really arcane).
-
-## Commit format
-
-Please use the [conventional commits] spec for the web UI, with a scope of "ui":
-
-- `chore(ui): bump deps`
-- `chore(ui): lint`
-- `feat(ui): add some cool new feature`
-- `fix(ui): fix some bug`
-
-## Tests
-
-We don't do any UI testing at this time, but consider adding tests for sensitive logic.
-
-We use `vitest`, and tests should be next to the file they are testing. If the logic is in `something.ts`, the tests should be in `something.test.ts`.
-
-In some situations, we may want to test types. For example, if you use `zod` to create a schema that should match a generated type, it's best to add a test to confirm that the types match. Use `tsafe`'s assert for this.
-
-## Submitting a PR
-
-- Ensure your branch is tidy. Use an interactive rebase to clean up the commit history and reword the commit messages if they are not descriptive.
-- Run `pnpm lint`. Some issues are auto-fixable with `pnpm fix`.
-- Fill out the PR form when creating the PR.
-  - It doesn't need to be super detailed, but a screenshot or video is nice if you changed something visually.
-  - If a section isn't relevant, delete it.

-# State Management
-
-The app makes heavy use of Redux Toolkit, its Query library, and `nanostores`.
-
-## Redux
-
-We use RTK extensively - slices, entity adapters, queries, reselect, the whole 9 yards. Their [docs](https://redux-toolkit.js.org/) are excellent.
-
-## `nanostores`
-
-[nanostores] is a tiny state management library. It provides both imperative and declarative APIs.
-
-### Example
-
-```ts
-export const $myStringOption = atom<string | null>(null);
-
-// Outside a component, or within a callback for performance-critical logic
-$myStringOption.get();
-$myStringOption.set('new value');
-
-// Inside a component
-const myStringOption = useStore($myStringOption);
-```
-
-### Where to put nanostores
-
-- For global application state, export your stores from `invokeai/frontend/web/src/app/store/nanostores/`.
-- For feature state, create a file for the stores next to the redux slice definition (e.g. `invokeai/frontend/web/src/features/myFeature/myFeatureNanostores.ts`).
-- For hooks with global state, export the store from the same file the hook is in, or put it next to the hook.
-
-### When to use nanostores
-
-- For non-serializable data that needs to be available throughout the app, use `nanostores` instead of a global.
-- For ephemeral global state (i.e. state that does not need to be persisted), use `nanostores` instead of redux.
-- For performance-critical code and in callbacks, redux selectors can be problematic due to the declarative reactivity system. Consider refactoring to use `nanostores` if there's a **measurable** performance issue.

-# Workflows - Design and Implementation
-
-> This document describes, at a high level, the design and implementation of workflows in the InvokeAI frontend. There are a substantial number of implementation details not included, but which are hopefully clear from the code.
-
-InvokeAI's backend uses graphs, composed of **nodes** and **edges**, to process data and generate images.
-
-Nodes have any number of **input fields** and **output fields**. Edges connect nodes together via their inputs and outputs. Fields have data types which dictate how they may be connected.
-
-During execution, a nodes' outputs may be passed along to any number of other nodes' inputs.
-
-Workflows are an enriched abstraction over a graph.
-
-## Design
-
-InvokeAI provide two ways to build graphs in the frontend: the [Linear UI](#linear-ui) and [Workflow Editor](#workflow-editor).
-
-To better understand the use case and challenges related to workflows, we will review both of these modes.
-
-### Linear UI
-
-This includes the **Text to Image**, **Image to Image** and **Unified Canvas** tabs.
-
-The user-managed parameters on these tabs are stored as simple objects in the application state. When the user invokes, adding a generation to the queue, we internally build a graph from these parameters.
-
-This logic can be fairly complex due to the range of features available and their interactions. Depending on the parameters selected, the graph may be very different. Building graphs in code can be challenging - you are trying to construct a non-linear structure in a linear context.
-
-The simplest graph building logic is for **Text to Image** with a SD1.5 model: [buildLinearTextToImageGraph.ts]
-
-There are many other graph builders in the same directory for different tabs or base models (e.g. SDXL). Some are pretty hairy.
-
-In the Linear UI, we go straight from **simple application state** to **graph** via these builders.
-
-### Workflow Editor
-
-The Workflow Editor is a visual graph editor, allowing users to draw edges from node to node to construct a graph. This _far_ more approachable way to create complex graphs.
-
-InvokeAI uses the [reactflow] library to power the Workflow Editor. It provides both a graph editor UI and manages its own internal graph state.
-
-#### Workflows
-
-A workflow is a representation of a graph plus additional metadata:
-
-- Name
-- Description
-- Version
-- Notes
-- [Exposed fields](#workflow-linear-view)
-- Author, tags, category, etc.
-
-Workflows should have other qualities:
-
-- Portable: you should be able to load a workflow created by another person.
-- Resilient: you should be able to "upgrade" a workflow as the application changes.
-- Abstract: as much as is possible, workflows should not be married to the specific implementation details of the application.
-
-To support these qualities, workflows are serializable, have a versioned schemas, and represent graphs as minimally as possible. Fortunately, the reactflow state for nodes and edges works perfectly for this.
-
-##### Workflow -> reactflow state -> InvokeAI graph
-
-Given a workflow, we need to be able to derive reactflow state and/or an InvokeAI graph from it.
-
-The first step - workflow to reactflow state - is very simple. The logic is in [nodesSlice.ts], in the `workflowLoaded` reducer.
-
-The reactflow state is, however, structurally incompatible with our backend's graph structure. When a user invokes on a Workflow, we need to convert the reactflow state into an InvokeAI graph. This is far simpler than the graph building logic from the Linear UI:
-[buildNodesGraph.ts]
-
-##### Nodes vs Invocations
-
-We often use the terms "node" and "invocation" interchangeably, but they may refer to different things in the frontend.
-
-reactflow [has its own definitions][reactflow-concepts] of "node", "edge" and "handle" which are closely related to InvokeAI graph concepts.
-
-- A reactflow node is related to an InvokeAI invocation. It has a "data" property, which holds the InvokeAI-specific invocation data.
-- A reactflow edge is roughly equivalent to an InvokeAI edge.
-- A reactflow handle is roughly equivalent to an InvokeAI input or output field.
-
-##### Workflow Linear View
-
-Graphs are very capable data structures, but not everyone wants to work with them all the time.
-
-To allow less technical users - or anyone who wants a less visually noisy workspace - to benefit from the power of nodes, InvokeAI has a workflow feature called the Linear View.
-
-A workflow input field can be added to this Linear View, and its input component can be presented similarly to the Linear UI tabs. Internally, we add the field to the workflow's list of exposed fields.
-
-#### OpenAPI Schema
-
-OpenAPI is a schema specification that can represent complex data structures and relationships. The backend is capable of generating an OpenAPI schema for all invocations.
-
-When the UI connects, it requests this schema and parses each invocation into an **invocation template**. Invocation templates have a number of properties, like title, description and type, but the most important ones are their input and output **field templates**.
-
-Invocation and field templates are the "source of truth" for graphs, because they indicate what the backend is able to process.
-
-When a user adds a new node to their workflow, these templates are used to instantiate a node with fields instantiated from the input and output field templates.
-
-##### Field Instances and Templates
-
-Field templates consist of:
-
-- Name: the identifier of the field, its variable name in python
-- Type: derived from the field's type annotation in python (e.g. IntegerField, ImageField, MainModelField)
-- Constraints: derived from the field's creation args in python (e.g. minimum value for an integer)
-- Default value: optionally provided in the field's creation args (e.g. 42 for an integer)
-
-Field instances are created from the templates and have name, type and optionally a value.
-
-The type of the field determines the UI components that are rendered for it.
-
-A field instance's name associates it with its template.
-
-##### Stateful vs Stateless Fields
-
-**Stateful** fields store their value in the frontend graph. Think primitives, model identifiers, images, etc. Fields are only stateful if the frontend allows the user to directly input a value for them.
-
-Many field types, however, are **stateless**. An example is a `UNetField`, which contains some data describing a UNet. Users cannot directly provide this data - it is created and consumed in the backend.
-
-Stateless fields do not store their value in the node, so their field instances do not have values.
-
-"Custom" fields will always be treated as stateless fields.
-
-##### Single and Collection Fields
-
-Field types have a name and cardinality property which may identify it as a **SINGLE**, **COLLECTION** or **SINGLE_OR_COLLECTION** field.
-
-- If a field is annotated in python as a singular value or class, its field type is parsed as a **SINGLE** type (e.g. `int`, `ImageField`, `str`).
-- If a field is annotated in python as a list, its field type is parsed as a **COLLECTION** type (e.g. `list[int]`).
-- If it is annotated as a union of a type and list, the type will be parsed as a **SINGLE_OR_COLLECTION** type (e.g. `Union[int, list[int]]`). Fields may not be unions of different types (e.g. `Union[int, list[str]]` and `Union[int, str]` are not allowed).
-
-## Implementation
-
-The majority of data structures in the backend are [pydantic] models. Pydantic provides OpenAPI schemas for all models and we then generate TypeScript types from those.
-
-The OpenAPI schema is parsed at runtime into our invocation templates.
-
-Workflows and all related data are modeled in the frontend using [zod]. Related types are inferred from the zod schemas.
-
-> In python, invocations are pydantic models with fields. These fields become node inputs. The invocation's `invoke()` function returns a pydantic model - its output. Like the invocation itself, the output model has any number of fields, which become node outputs.
-
-### zod Schemas and Types
-
-The zod schemas, inferred types, and type guards are in [types/].
-
-Roughly order from lowest-level to highest:
-
-- `common.ts`: stateful field data, and couple other misc types
-- `field.ts`: fields - types, values, instances, templates
-- `invocation.ts`: invocations and other node types
-- `workflow.ts`: workflows and constituents
-
-We customize the OpenAPI schema to include additional properties on invocation and field schemas. To facilitate parsing this schema into templates, we modify/wrap the types from [openapi-types] in `openapi.ts`.
-
-### OpenAPI Schema Parsing
-
-The entrypoint for OpenAPI schema parsing is [parseSchema.ts].
-
-General logic flow:
-
-- Iterate over all invocation schema objects
-  - Extract relevant invocation-level attributes (e.g. title, type, version, etc)
-  - Iterate over the invocation's input fields
-    - [Parse each field's type](#parsing-field-types)
-    - [Build a field input template](#building-field-input-templates) from the type - either a stateful template or "generic" stateless template
-  - Iterate over the invocation's output fields
-    - Parse the field's type (same as inputs)
-    - [Build a field output template](#building-field-output-templates)
-  - Assemble the attributes and fields into an invocation template
-
-Most of these involve very straightforward `reduce`s, but the less intuitive steps are detailed below.
-
-#### Parsing Field Types
-
-Field types are represented as structured objects:
-
-```ts
-type FieldType = {
-  name: string;
-  cardinality: 'SINGLE' | 'COLLECTION' | 'SINGLE_OR_COLLECTION';
-};
-```
-
-The parsing logic is in `parseFieldType.ts`.
-
-There are 4 general cases for field type parsing.
-
-##### Primitive Types
-
-When a field is annotated as a primitive values (e.g. `int`, `str`, `float`), the field type parsing is fairly straightforward. The field is represented by a simple OpenAPI **schema object**, which has a `type` property.
-
-We create a field type name from this `type` string (e.g. `string` -> `StringField`). The cardinality is `"SINGLE"`.
-
-##### Complex Types
-
-When a field is annotated as a pydantic model (e.g. `ImageField`, `MainModelField`, `ControlField`), it is represented as a **reference object**. Reference objects are pointers to another schema or reference object within the schema.
-
-We need to **dereference** the schema to pull these out. Dereferencing may require recursion. We use the reference object's name directly for the field type name.
-
-> Unfortunately, at this time, we've had limited success using external libraries to deference at runtime, so we do this ourselves.
-
-##### Collection Types
-
-When a field is annotated as a list of a single type, the schema object has an `items` property. They may be a schema object or reference object and must be parsed to determine the item type.
-
-We use the item type for field type name. The cardinality is `"COLLECTION"`.
-
-##### Single or Collection Types
-
-When a field is annotated as a union of a type and list of that type, the schema object has an `anyOf` property, which holds a list of valid types for the union.
-
-After verifying that the union has two members (a type and list of the same type), we use the type for field type name, with cardinality `"SINGLE_OR_COLLECTION"`.
-
-##### Optional Fields
-
-In OpenAPI v3.1, when an object is optional, it is put into an `anyOf` along with a primitive schema object with `type: 'null'`.
-
-Handling this adds a fair bit of complexity, as we now must filter out the `'null'` types and work with the remaining types as described above.
-
-If there is a single remaining schema object, we must recursively call to `parseFieldType()` to get parse it.
-
-#### Building Field Input Templates
-
-Now that we have a field type, we can build an input template for the field.
-
-Stateful fields all get a function to build their template, while stateless fields are constructed directly. This is possible because stateless fields have no default value or constraints.
-
-See [buildFieldInputTemplate.ts].
-
-#### Building Field Output Templates
-
-Field outputs are similar to stateless fields - they do not have any value in the frontend. When building their templates, we don't need a special function for each field type.
-
-See [buildFieldOutputTemplate.ts].
-
-### Managing reactflow State
-
-As described above, the workflow editor state is the essentially the reactflow state, plus some extra metadata.
-
-We provide reactflow with an array of nodes and edges via redux, and a number of [event handlers][reactflow-events]. These handlers dispatch redux actions, managing nodes and edges.
-
-The pieces of redux state relevant to workflows are:
-
-- `state.nodes.nodes`: the reactflow nodes state
-- `state.nodes.edges`: the reactflow edges state
-- `state.nodes.workflow`: the workflow metadata
-
-#### Building Nodes and Edges
-
-A reactflow node has a few important top-level properties:
-
-- `id`: unique identifier
-- `type`: a string that maps to a react component to render the node
-- `position`: XY coordinates
-- `data`: arbitrary data
-
-When the user adds a node, we build **invocation node data**, storing it in `data`. Invocation properties (e.g. type, version, label, etc.) are copied from the invocation template. Inputs and outputs are built from the invocation template's field templates.
-
-See [buildInvocationNode.ts].
-
-Edges are managed by reactflow, but briefly, they consist of:
-
-- `source`: id of the source node
-- `sourceHandle`: id of the source node handle (output field)
-- `target`: id of the target node
-- `targetHandle`: id of the target node handle (input field)
-
-> Edge creation is gated behind validation logic. This validation compares the input and output field types and overall graph state.
-
-#### Building a Workflow
-
-Building a workflow entity is as simple as dropping the nodes, edges and metadata into an object.
-
-Each node and edge is parsed with a zod schema, which serves to strip out any unneeded data.
-
-See [buildWorkflow.ts].
-
-#### Loading a Workflow
-
-Workflows may be loaded from external sources or the user's local instance. In all cases, the workflow needs to be handled with care, as an untrusted object.
-
-Loading has a few stages which may throw or warn if there are problems:
-
-- Parsing the workflow data structure itself, [migrating](#workflow-migrations) it if necessary (throws)
-- Check for a template for each node (warns)
-- Check each node's version against its template (warns)
-- Validate the source and target of each edge (warns)
-
-This validation occurs in [validateWorkflow.ts].
-
-If there are no fatal errors, the workflow is then stored in redux state.
-
-### Workflow Migrations
-
-When the workflow schema changes, we may need to perform some data migrations. This occurs as workflows are loaded. zod schemas for each workflow schema version is retained to facilitate migrations.
-
-Previous schemas are in folders in `invokeai/frontend/web/src/features/nodes/types/`, eg `v1/`.
-
-Migration logic is in [migrations.ts].

+
+## **Interactive Command Line Interface**
+
+The InvokeAI command line interface (CLI) provides scriptable access
+to InvokeAI's features.Some advanced features are only available
+through the CLI, though they eventually find their way into the WebUI.
+
+The CLI is accessible from the `invoke.sh`/`invoke.bat` launcher by
+selecting option (1). Alternatively, it can be launched directly from
+the command line by activating the InvokeAI environment and giving the
+command:
+
+```bash
+invokeai
+```
+
+After some startup messages, you will be presented with the `invoke> `
+prompt. Here you can type prompts to generate images and issue other
+commands to load and manipulate generative models. The CLI has a large
+number of command-line options that control its behavior. To get a
+concise summary of the options, call `invokeai` with the `--help` argument:
+
+```bash
+invokeai --help
+```
+
+The script uses the readline library to allow for in-line editing, command
+history (++up++ and ++down++), autocompletion, and more. To help keep track of
+which prompts generated which images, the script writes a log file of image
+names and prompts to the selected output directory.
+
+Here is a typical session
+
+```bash
+PS1:C:\Users\fred> invokeai

+
+!!! tip
+
+      On Windows systems, you may run into
+      problems when passing the invoke script standard backslashed path
+      names because the Python interpreter treats "\" as an escape.
+      You can either double your slashes (ick): `C:\\path\\to\\my\\file`, or
+      use Linux/Mac style forward slashes (better): `C:/path/to/my/file`.
+
+## The .invokeai initialization file
+
+To start up invoke.py with your preferred settings, place your desired
+startup options in a file in your home directory named `.invokeai` The
+file should contain the startup options as you would type them on the
+command line (`--steps=10 --grid`), one argument per line, or a
+mixture of both using any of the accepted command switch formats:
+
+!!! example "my unmodified initialization file"
+
+    ```bash title="~/.invokeai" linenums="1"
+    # InvokeAI initialization file
+    # This is the InvokeAI initialization file, which contains command-line default values.
+    # Feel free to edit. If anything goes wrong, you can re-initialize this file by deleting
+    # or renaming it and then running invokeai-configure again.
+
+    # The --root option below points to the folder in which InvokeAI stores its models, configs and outputs.
+    --root="/Users/mauwii/invokeai"
+
+    # the --outdir option controls the default location of image files.
+    --outdir="/Users/mauwii/invokeai/outputs"
+
+    # You may place other  frequently-used startup commands here, one or more per line.
+    # Examples:
+    # --web --host=0.0.0.0
+    # --steps=20
+    # -Ak_euler_a -C10.0
+    ```
+
+!!! note
+
+    The  initialization file only accepts the command line arguments.
+    There are additional arguments that you can provide on the `invoke>` command
+    line (such as `-n` or `--iterations`) that cannot be entered into this file.
+    Also be alert for empty blank lines at the end of the file, which will cause
+    an arguments error at startup time.
+
+## List of prompt arguments
+
+After the invoke.py script initializes, it will present you with a `invoke>`
+prompt. Here you can enter information to generate images from text
+([txt2img](#txt2img)), to embellish an existing image or sketch
+([img2img](#img2img)), or to selectively alter chosen regions of the image
+([inpainting](#inpainting)).
+
+### txt2img
+
+!!! example ""
+
+    ```bash
+    invoke> waterfall and rainbow -W640 -H480
+    ```
+
+    This will create the requested image with the dimensions 640 (width)
+    and 480 (height).
+
+Here are the invoke> command that apply to txt2img:

+!!! note
+
+    the width and height of the image must be multiples of 64. You can
+    provide different values, but they will be rounded down to the nearest multiple
+    of 64.
+
+!!! example "This is a example of img2img"
+
+    ```bash
+    invoke> waterfall and rainbow -I./vacation-photo.png -W640 -H480 --fit
+    ```
+
+This will modify the indicated vacation photograph by making it more like the
+prompt. Results will vary greatly depending on what is in the image. We also ask
+to --fit the image into a box no bigger than 640x480. Otherwise the image size
+will be identical to the provided photo and you may run out of memory if it is
+large.
+

+### inpainting
+
+!!! example ""
+
+    ```bash
+    invoke> waterfall and rainbow -I./vacation-photo.png -M./vacation-mask.png -W640 -H480 --fit
+    ```
+
+    This will do the same thing as img2img, but image alterations will
+    only occur within transparent areas defined by the mask file specified
+    by `-M`. You may also supply just a single initial image with the areas
+    to overpaint made transparent, but you must be careful not to destroy
+    the pixels underneath when you create the transparent areas. See
+    [Inpainting](INPAINTING.md) for details.
+
+inpainting accepts all the arguments used for txt2img and img2img, as well as
+the --mask (-M) and --text_mask (-tm) arguments:
+
+| Argument <img width="100" align="right"/> | Shortcut                 | Default | Description                                                                                      |
+| ----------------------------------------- | ------------------------ | ------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
+| `--init_mask <path>`                      | `-M<path>`               | `None`  | Path to an image the same size as the initial_image, with areas for inpainting made transparent. |
+| `--invert_mask `                          |                          | False   | If true, invert the mask so that transparent areas are opaque and vice versa.                    |
+| `--text_mask <prompt> [<float>]`          | `-tm <prompt> [<float>]` | <none>  | Create a mask from a text prompt describing part of the image                                    |
+
+The mask may either be an image with transparent areas, in which case the
+inpainting will occur in the transparent areas only, or a black and white image,
+in which case all black areas will be painted into.
+
+`--text_mask` (short form `-tm`) is a way to generate a mask using a text
+description of the part of the image to replace. For example, if you have an
+image of a breakfast plate with a bagel, toast and scrambled eggs, you can
+selectively mask the bagel and replace it with a piece of cake this way:
+
+```bash
+invoke> a piece of cake -I /path/to/breakfast.png -tm bagel
+```
+
+The algorithm uses <a
+href="https://github.com/timojl/clipseg">clipseg</a> to classify different
+regions of the image. The classifier puts out a confidence score for each region
+it identifies. Generally regions that score above 0.5 are reliable, but if you
+are getting too much or too little masking you can adjust the threshold down (to
+get more mask), or up (to get less). In this example, by passing `-tm` a higher
+value, we are insisting on a more stringent classification.
+
+```bash
+invoke> a piece of cake -I /path/to/breakfast.png -tm bagel 0.6
+```

+
+## Other Commands
+
+The CLI offers a number of commands that begin with "!".
+
+### Postprocessing images
+
+To postprocess a file using face restoration or upscaling, use the `!fix`
+command.
+
+#### `!fix`
+
+This command runs a post-processor on a previously-generated image. It takes a
+PNG filename or path and applies your choice of the `-U`, `-G`, or `--embiggen`
+switches in order to fix faces or upscale. If you provide a filename, the script
+will look for it in the current output directory. Otherwise you can provide a
+full or partial path to the desired file.
+
+Some examples:
+
+!!! example "Upscale to 4X its original size and fix faces using codeformer"
+
+    ```bash
+    invoke> !fix 0000045.4829112.png -G1 -U4 -ft codeformer
+    ```
+
+!!! example "Use the GFPGAN algorithm to fix faces, then upscale to 3X using --embiggen"
+
+    ```bash
+    invoke> !fix 0000045.4829112.png -G0.8 -ft gfpgan
+    >> fixing outputs/img-samples/0000045.4829112.png
+    >> retrieved seed 4829112 and prompt "boy enjoying a banana split"
+    >> GFPGAN - Restoring Faces for image seed:4829112
+    Outputs:
+    [1] outputs/img-samples/000017.4829112.gfpgan-00.png: !fix "outputs/img-samples/0000045.4829112.png" -s 50 -S  -W 512 -H 512 -C 7.5 -A k_lms -G 0.8
+    ```
+
+#### `!mask`
+
+This command takes an image, a text prompt, and uses the `clipseg` algorithm to
+automatically generate a mask of the area that matches the text prompt. It is
+useful for debugging the text masking process prior to inpainting with the
+`--text_mask` argument. See [INPAINTING.md] for details.
+
+### Model selection and importation
+
+The CLI allows you to add new models on the fly, as well as to switch
+among them rapidly without leaving the script. There are several
+different model formats, each described in the [Model Installation
+Guide](../installation/050_INSTALLING_MODELS.md).
+
+#### `!models`
+
+This prints out a list of the models defined in `config/models.yaml'. The active
+model is bold-faced
+
+Example:
+
+<pre>
+inpainting-1.5            not loaded  Stable Diffusion inpainting model
+<b>stable-diffusion-1.5          active  Stable Diffusion v1.5</b>
+waifu-diffusion           not loaded  Waifu Diffusion v1.4
+</pre>
+
+#### `!switch <model>`
+
+This quickly switches from one model to another without leaving the CLI script.
+`invoke.py` uses a memory caching system; once a model has been loaded,
+switching back and forth is quick. The following example shows this in action.
+Note how the second column of the `!models` table changes to `cached` after a
+model is first loaded, and that the long initialization step is not needed when
+loading a cached model.
+
+#### `!import_model <hugging_face_repo_ID>`
+
+This imports and installs a `diffusers`-style model that is stored on
+the [HuggingFace Web Site](https://huggingface.co). You can look up
+any [Stable Diffusion diffusers
+model](https://huggingface.co/models?library=diffusers) and install it
+with a command like the following:
+
+```bash
+!import_model prompthero/openjourney
+```
+
+#### `!import_model <path/to/diffusers/directory>`
+
+If you have a copy of a `diffusers`-style model saved to disk, you can
+import it by passing the path to model's top-level directory.
+
+#### `!import_model <url>`
+
+For a `.ckpt` or `.safetensors` file, if you have a direct download
+URL for the file, you can provide it to `!import_model` and the file
+will be downloaded and installed for you.
+
+#### `!import_model <path/to/model/weights.ckpt>`
+
+This command imports a new model weights file into InvokeAI, makes it available
+for image generation within the script, and writes out the configuration for the
+model into `config/models.yaml` for use in subsequent sessions.
+
+Provide `!import_model` with the path to a weights file ending in `.ckpt`. If
+you type a partial path and press tab, the CLI will autocomplete. Although it
+will also autocomplete to `.vae` files, these are not currenty supported (but
+will be soon).
+
+When you hit return, the CLI will prompt you to fill in additional information
+about the model, including the short name you wish to use for it with the
+`!switch` command, a brief description of the model, the default image width and
+height to use with this model, and the model's configuration file. The latter
+three fields are automatically filled with reasonable defaults. In the example
+below, the bold-faced text shows what the user typed in with the exception of
+the width, height and configuration file paths, which were filled in
+automatically.
+
+#### `!import_model <path/to/directory_of_models>`
+
+If you provide the path of a directory that contains one or more
+`.ckpt` or `.safetensors` files, the CLI will scan the directory and
+interactively offer to import the models it finds there. Also see the
+`--autoconvert` command-line option.
+
+#### `!edit_model <name_of_model>`
+
+The `!edit_model` command can be used to modify a model that is already defined
+in `config/models.yaml`. Call it with the short name of the model you wish to
+modify, and it will allow you to modify the model's `description`, `weights` and
+other fields.
+
+Example:
+
+<pre>
+invoke> <b>!edit_model waifu-diffusion</b>
+>> Editing model waifu-diffusion from configuration file ./configs/models.yaml
+description: <b>Waifu diffusion v1.4beta</b>
+weights: models/ldm/stable-diffusion-v1/<b>model-epoch10-float16.ckpt</b>
+config: configs/stable-diffusion/v1-inference.yaml
+width: 512

+  description: Waifu diffusion v1.4beta
+  weights: models/ldm/stable-diffusion-v1/model-epoch10-float16.ckpt

+
+### History processing
+
+The CLI provides a series of convenient commands for reviewing previous actions,
+retrieving them, modifying them, and re-running them.
+
+#### `!history`
+
+The invoke script keeps track of all the commands you issue during a session,
+allowing you to re-run them. On Mac and Linux systems, it also writes the
+command-line history out to disk, giving you access to the most recent 1000
+commands issued.
+
+The `!history` command will return a numbered list of all the commands issued
+during the session (Windows), or the most recent 1000 commands (Mac|Linux). You
+can then repeat a command by using the command `!NNN`, where "NNN" is the
+history line number. For example:
+
+!!! example ""
+
+    ```bash
+    invoke> !history
+    ...
+    [14] happy woman sitting under tree wearing broad hat and flowing garment
+    [15] beautiful woman sitting under tree wearing broad hat and flowing garment
+    [18] beautiful woman sitting under tree wearing broad hat and flowing garment -v0.2 -n6
+    [20] watercolor of beautiful woman sitting under tree wearing broad hat and flowing garment -v0.2 -n6 -S2878767194
+    [21] surrealist painting of beautiful woman sitting under tree wearing broad hat and flowing garment -v0.2 -n6 -S2878767194
+    ...
+    invoke> !20
+    invoke> watercolor of beautiful woman sitting under tree wearing broad hat and flowing garment -v0.2 -n6 -S2878767194
+    ```
+
+####`!fetch`
+
+This command retrieves the generation parameters from a previously generated
+image and either loads them into the command line (Linux|Mac), or prints them
+out in a comment for copy-and-paste (Windows). You may provide either the name
+of a file in the current output directory, or a full file path. Specify path to
+a folder with image png files, and wildcard \*.png to retrieve the dream command
+used to generate the images, and save them to a file commands.txt for further
+processing.
+
+!!! example "load the generation command for a single png file"
+
+    ```bash
+    invoke> !fetch 0000015.8929913.png
+    # the script returns the next line, ready for editing and running:
+    invoke> a fantastic alien landscape -W 576 -H 512 -s 60 -A plms -C 7.5
+    ```
+
+!!! example "fetch the generation commands from a batch of files and store them into `selected.txt`"
+
+    ```bash
+    invoke> !fetch outputs\selected-imgs\*.png selected.txt
+    ```
+
+#### `!replay`
+
+This command replays a text file generated by !fetch or created manually
+
+!!! example
+
+    ```bash
+    invoke> !replay outputs\selected-imgs\selected.txt
+    ```
+
+!!! note
+
+    These commands may behave unexpectedly if given a PNG file that was
+    not generated by InvokeAI.
+
+#### `!search <search string>`
+
+This is similar to !history but it only returns lines that contain
+`search string`. For example:
+
+```bash
+invoke> !search surreal
+[21] surrealist painting of beautiful woman sitting under tree wearing broad hat and flowing garment -v0.2 -n6 -S2878767194
+```
+
+#### `!clear`
+
+This clears the search history from memory and disk. Be advised that this
+operation is irreversible and does not issue any warnings!
+
+## Command-line editing and completion
+
+The command-line offers convenient history tracking, editing, and command
+completion.
+
+- To scroll through previous commands and potentially edit/reuse them, use the
+  ++up++ and ++down++ keys.
+- To edit the current command, use the ++left++ and ++right++ keys to position
+  the cursor, and then ++backspace++, ++delete++ or insert characters.
+- To move to the very beginning of the command, type ++ctrl+a++ (or
+  ++command+a++ on the Mac)
+- To move to the end of the command, type ++ctrl+e++.
+- To cut a section of the command, position the cursor where you want to start
+  cutting and type ++ctrl+k++
+- To paste a cut section back in, position the cursor where you want to paste,
+  and type ++ctrl+y++
+
+Windows users can get similar, but more limited, functionality if they launch
+`invoke.py` with the `winpty` program and have the `pyreadline3` library
+installed:
+
+```batch
+> winpty python scripts\invoke.py
+```
+
+On the Mac and Linux platforms, when you exit invoke.py, the last 1000 lines of
+your command-line history will be saved. When you restart `invoke.py`, you can
+access the saved history using the ++up++ key.
+
+In addition, limited command-line completion is installed. In various contexts,
+you can start typing your command and press ++tab++. A list of potential
+completions will be presented to you. You can then type a little more, hit
+++tab++ again, and eventually autocomplete what you want.
+
+When specifying file paths using the one-letter shortcuts, the CLI will attempt
+to complete pathnames for you. This is most handy for the `-I` (init image) and
+`-M` (init mask) paths. To initiate completion, start the path with a slash
+(`/`) or `./`. For example:
+
+```bash
+invoke> zebra with a mustache -I./test-pictures<TAB>
+-I./test-pictures/Lincoln-and-Parrot.png  -I./test-pictures/zebra.jpg        -I./test-pictures/madonna.png
+-I./test-pictures/bad-sketch.png          -I./test-pictures/man_with_eagle/
+```
+
+You can then type ++z++, hit ++tab++ again, and it will autofill to `zebra.jpg`.
+
+More text completion features (such as autocompleting seeds) are on their way.

+# :material-loupe: Embiggen
+
+**upscale your images on limited memory machines**
+
+GFPGAN and Real-ESRGAN are both memory intensive. In order to avoid
+crashes and memory overloads during the Stable Diffusion process,
+these effects are applied after Stable Diffusion has completed its
+work.
+
+In single image generations, you will see the output right away but
+when you are using multiple iterations, the images will first be
+generated and then upscaled and face restored after that process is
+complete. While the image generation is taking place, you will still
+be able to preview the base images.
+
+If you wish to stop during the image generation but want to upscale or
+face restore a particular generated image, pass it again with the same
+prompt and generated seed along with the `-U` and `-G` prompt
+arguments to perform those actions.
+
+## Embiggen
+
+If you wanted to be able to do more (pixels) without running out of VRAM,
+or you want to upscale with details that couldn't possibly appear
+without the context of a prompt, this is the feature to try out.
+
+Embiggen automates the process of taking an init image, upscaling it,
+cutting it into smaller tiles that slightly overlap, running all the
+tiles through img2img to refine details with respect to the prompt,
+and "stitching" the tiles back together into a cohesive image.
+
+It automatically computes how many tiles are needed, and so it can be fed
+*ANY* size init image and perform Img2Img on it (though it will be run only
+one tile at a time, which can cause problems, see the Note at the end).
+
+If you're familiar with "GoBig" (ala [progrock-stable](https://github.com/lowfuel/progrock-stable))
+it's similar to that, except it can work up to an arbitrarily large size
+(instead of just 2x), with tile overlaps configurable as a ratio, and
+has extra logic to re-run any number of the tile sub-sections of the image
+if for example a small part of a huge run got messed up.
+
+### Usage
+
+`-embiggen <scaling_factor> <esrgan_strength> <overlap_ratio OR overlap_pixels>`
+
+Takes a scaling factor relative to the size of the `--init_img` (`-I`), followed by
+ESRGAN upscaling strength (0 - 1.0), followed by minimum amount of overlap
+between tiles as a decimal ratio (0 - 1.0) *OR* a number of pixels.
+
+The scaling factor is how much larger than the `--init_img` the output
+should be, and will multiply both x and y axis, so an image that is a
+scaling factor of 3.0 has 3*3= 9 times as many pixels, and will take
+(at least) 9 times as long (see overlap for why it might be
+longer). If the `--init_img` is already the right size `-embiggen 1`,
+and it can also be less than one if the init_img is too big.
+
+Esrgan_strength defaults to 0.75, and the overlap_ratio defaults to
+0.25, both are optional.
+
+Unlike Img2Img, the `--width` (`-W`) and `--height` (`-H`) arguments
+do not control the size of the image as a whole, but the size of the
+tiles used to Embiggen the image.
+
+ESRGAN is used to upscale the `--init_img` prior to cutting it into
+tiles/pieces to run through img2img and then stitch back
+together. Embiggen can be run without ESRGAN; just set the strength to
+zero (e.g. `-embiggen 1.75 0`). The output of Embiggen can also be
+upscaled after it's finished (`-U`).
+
+The overlap is the minimum that tiles will overlap with adjacent
+tiles, specified as either a ratio or a number of pixels. How much the
+tiles overlap determines the likelihood the tiling will be noticable,
+really small overlaps (e.g. a couple of pixels) may produce noticeable
+grid-like fuzzy distortions in the final stitched image. Though, as
+the overlapping space doesn't contribute to making the image bigger,
+and the larger the overlap the more tiles (and the more time) it will
+take to finish.
+
+Because the overlapping parts of tiles don't "contribute" to
+increasing size, every tile after the first in a row or column
+effectively only covers an extra `1 - overlap_ratio` on each axis. If
+the input/`--init_img` is same size as a tile, the ideal (for time)
+scaling factors with the default overlap (0.25) are 1.75, 2.5, 3.25,
+4.0, etc.
+
+`-embiggen_tiles <spaced list of tiles>`
+
+An advanced usage useful if you only want to alter parts of the image
+while running Embiggen. It takes a list of tiles by number to run and
+replace onto the initial image e.g. `1 3 5`. It's useful for either
+fixing problem spots from a previous Embiggen run, or selectively
+altering the prompt for sections of an image - for creative or
+coherency reasons.
+
+Tiles are numbered starting with one, and left-to-right,
+top-to-bottom.  So, if you are generating a 3x3 tiled image, the
+middle row would be `4 5 6`.
+
+`-embiggen_strength <strength>`
+
+Another advanced option if you want to experiment with the strength parameter
+that embiggen uses when it calls Img2Img. Values range from 0.0 to 1.0
+and lower values preserve more of the character of the initial image.
+Values that are too high will result in a completely different end image,
+while values that are too low will result in an image not dissimilar to one
+you would get with ESRGAN upscaling alone. The default value is 0.4.
+
+### Examples
+
+!!! example ""
+
+    Running Embiggen with 512x512 tiles on an existing image, scaling up by a factor of 2.5x;
+    and doing the same again (default ESRGAN strength is 0.75, default overlap between tiles is 0.25):
+
+    ```bash
+    invoke > a photo of a forest at sunset -s 100 -W 512 -H 512 -I outputs/forest.png -f 0.4 -embiggen 2.5
+    invoke > a photo of a forest at sunset -s 100 -W 512 -H 512 -I outputs/forest.png -f 0.4 -embiggen 2.5 0.75 0.25
+    ```
+
+    If your starting image was also 512x512 this should have taken 9 tiles.
+
+!!! example ""
+
+    If there weren't enough clouds in the sky of that forest you just made
+    (and that image is about 1280 pixels (512*2.5) wide A.K.A. three
+    512x512 tiles with 0.25 overlaps wide) we can replace that top row of
+    tiles:
+
+    ```bash
+    invoke> a photo of puffy clouds over a forest at sunset -s 100 -W 512 -H 512 -I outputs/000002.seed.png -f 0.5 -embiggen_tiles 1 2 3
+    ```
+
+## Fixing Previously-Generated Images
+
+It is easy to apply embiggen to any previously-generated file without having to
+look up the original prompt and provide an initial image. Just use the
+syntax `!fix path/to/file.png <embiggen>`. For example, you can rewrite the
+previous command to look like this:
+
+```bash
+invoke> !fix ./outputs/000002.seed.png -embiggen_tiles 1 2 3
+```
+
+A new file named `000002.seed.fixed.png` will be created in the output directory. Note that
+the `!fix` command does not replace the original file, unlike the behavior at generate time.
+You do not need to provide the prompt, and `!fix` automatically selects a good strength for
+embiggen-ing.
+
+!!! note
+
+    Because the same prompt is used on all the tiled images, and the model
+    doesn't have the context of anything outside the tile being run - it
+    can end up creating repeated pattern (also called 'motifs') across all
+    the tiles based on that prompt. The best way to combat this is
+    lowering the `--strength` (`-f`) to stay more true to the init image,
+    and increasing the number of steps so there is more compute-time to
+    create the detail.  Anecdotally `--strength` 0.35-0.45 works pretty
+    well on most things. It may also work great in some examples even with
+    the `--strength` set high for patterns, landscapes, or subjects that
+    are more abstract. Because this is (relatively) fast, you can also
+    preserve the best parts from each.
