+### Face mask and reference position
+
+Edit ships a face/hair/neck mask into the patch `ref_boost_mask` with `ref_boost` 3, so identity is pulled from the face instead of the whole picture, and `ref_position = beside` lets the pose move away from the source layout. Both servers run ComfyUI with `--use-pytorch-cross-attention`, needed for masked reference attention on RTX 50.
