Original-preserving volcanic smoke repairs

Twenty-five complete native originals4309–4333 were individually inspected with three approved references and four light/dark crop pairs:13 retain native detail for context,9 need canonical roles and3 need localized artwork repair. The mudflat cattail highlights remain intact;the oasis gap trace and two volcanic smoke defects are explicitly recorded. Two separate1254×1254 volcanic smoke candidates replace flat pink/gray patches while preserving every decoded original RGBA pixel outside their masks and all protected foreground rock/rim pixels. The lower smoke collar blends into the original warm vent transition;no resizing,detail filtering or whole-image generative replacement is used. An initial mask with a clipped plume was rejected and corrected before registration.8,341 maintained /8,385 working records;331 source approvals,38 update/proposal images,7,143 first reviews and all canonical role,style/scale/contact,state/lifecycle,existing nonrepeating mesh,complete performance,integration and actual live-use gates remain open. Zero source approvals,active replacements,original image overwrites or renderer/whitelist/world/save changes.

Full-weight smoke uses exact generated RGBA. Only the internal lower collar interpolates toward original warm smoke;the positive mask and protected polygons explicitly bound every changed pixel. The rejected whole-frame terrain drift is excluded. The first v2 mask clipped a taller puff and was rejected;the revised mask expands only into empty background. Full native originals,donors,masks and light/dark diagnostics are retained with SHA evidence.
