Image Enhancement Suite

Use this as the primary image toolkit. It now includes the repo's background removal, metadata, comparison, filter, palette, icon, collage, and sprite helpers.

Use This For

• Resize, crop, watermark, compress, and format conversion
• Background removal and quick cleanup
• Image comparisons and metadata inspection
• Palette extraction, icon generation, collages, and sprite sheet assembly

Workflow

1. Start with scripts/image_enhancer.py for general-purpose image work.
2. Use focused helpers when the task is narrow:
   • background_remover.py
   • image_comparison.py
   • image_metadata.py
   • image_filter.py
   • color_palette_extractor.py
   • icon_generator.py
   • collage_maker.py
   • sprite_sheet_generator.py
3. Prefer batch operations only when the same transforms should be applied consistently.

Guardrails

• Preserve originals when quality tradeoffs are uncertain.
• Say when a background removal or smart crop is heuristic, not exact.
• Use vector output or SVG-oriented tooling when the request is really illustration, not raster editing.
