Vito Sansevero 205cf153ea fix: image monitor recent-prompt fallback reads the paginated result
get_recent_prompts returns {"prompts": [...]} but _get_fallback_prompt
indexed it like a list, so the last-resort link to the most recent prompt
always failed silently. Accept both shapes.

"""Image monitoring system for ComfyUI generated images.
This module provides real-time monitoring of ComfyUI output directories to automatically
detect newly generated images and associate them with their corresponding prompts. The system
uses filesystem watchers to detect image creation events and extract metadata from the images
to maintain a gallery system.
The main components are:
- ImageGenerationHandler: Handles filesystem events for new image creation
- ImageMonitor: Main monitoring system that manages directory watching
Typical usage:
from utils.image_monitor import ImageMonitor
monitor = ImageMonitor(db_manager, prompt_tracker)
monitor.start_monitoring(['/path/to/comfyui/output'])
The system automatically:
- Detects new image files in monitored directories
- Extracts ComfyUI workflow metadata from PNG chunks
- Links images to active prompts using the prompt tracker
- Handles fallback linking when no active prompt is available
- Provides status information and monitoring control
