## 0.3.0 - True Style Transfer And Render-Audited V10 Recipes
Every V10 recipe was render-audited end to end on the real Krea 2 model
(fresh public-domain and self-generated references, fixed-seed A/B pairs);
everything below is proven by renders. V9 behavior is completely untouched.
- **`suggest the visual style` (V10) now does true style transfer.** The old
recipe had collapsed into a color-grade twin of the palette recipe; the
V10 override moves it to strong-blur preparation with a finish-heavy layer
table, so the reference's medium, palette, brushwork character, and finish
energy actually arrive. Because the deliberate preparation blur is itself
visible to the encoder, the recipe also ships an **anti-blur `focus`**
("...not the image's blurriness or soft focus, and not its subject or
scene layout") - without it, soft-medium references (watercolor, gouache,
aged photos) made results pervasively soft. Subjects now stay crisp and
primary at every strength; capped at `0.65`, lands clearly from about
`0.55`. For the strongest content-plus-style results use the documented
two-card method (content anchor `0.9` + style card `0.55`).
- **`copy lighting and mood` (V10) now lands dramatic light.** The inherited
palette-wash preparation flattened dramatic skies into flat location tones
(a brewing-storm reference delivered a sunny field at every strength). The
V10 override studies the reference through a strong blur - keeping the
broad light and cloud masses alive - with a de-place `focus` so the mood
arrives without the reference's location taking over. Storm mood lands at
`0.65`, full drama by `0.9`.
- **`copy big shapes only` (V10) no longer drains color.** At working
strengths the recipe's gray shape-wash study leaked through the deep
appearance taps and turned results monochrome. The V10 override uses a
structure-only layer table (structure taps x1.3, appearance taps x0.25):
silhouette guidance arrives with the prompt's natural colors kept.
- **`suggest material or texture` (V10) carries real surface character** -
textile ornament, fabric weave, ceramic glaze, carved relief - instead of
mostly recoloring. Capped at `0.65`; use `0.55` when the object's exact
form must not move.
- **Two new starter recipes** ship in `custom_recipes/starter-pack.yaml`:
`borrow drawing medium` (a deliberately gentle monochrome paper-and-ink
tonal shift - louder tunings render-provably import the drawing's subject,
so the description now says exactly what it can and cannot do) and
`borrow photo finish` (photographic tone, contrast, grain, and grade;
retuned after the first values proved near-silent - now lands clearly
from about `0.55`, capped at `0.65`).
- **The Recipe Builder generates the current recipes.** Its intent bases
were still emitting the pre-retune bundles; they now mirror the shipped
values exactly, including the style/lighting focus texts and the
style-transfer, material-finish, and structure-only layer tables. All
builder outputs re-verified through the pack's real recipe loader.
- **The full V10 demo set was re-rendered** through the shipped tuning
(every PNG still embeds its exact workflow), and the README's strength
guidance moved to the render-calibrated bands: appearance recipes land
clearly from about `0.55`-`0.65` and whisper below `0.5` by design;
structure and identity work at `0.9`-`1.2`.
- Documentation sync across the V10 user guides, technical paper (recipe
tables, override footnotes, worked example), node pages, testing guide,
docs index, and the Recipe Kit README - including honest notes on what
the conditioning cannot do (no brushwork-repaint onto surfaces, no
scene-behind-subject compositing, drawing-medium-without-its-subject).
