Inspect the consequence
Inspect the gallery card
Reference: Lantern poster
The fictional image remains identifiable before the handoff.
Attach it to a request
Make the lettering quieter

What this makes possible
A gallery image can be handed directly to chat; the lightbox also connects to gallery, inpaint and download actions.

Evidence, implementation & history Implementation inspected
What I checked
Source and release record inspected. This page keeps a small invented illustration; the linked Branch Lab adds an actual isolated PanelForge run with fictional data, seeded answers and an explicitly unreleased comparison fix.
Release anchor: web-v4.13.0.
Research cut: 14 October 2026. Source areas below are from panel-forge. Private conversation references are retained in the research ledger and are not published here.
Implementation decisions

The small explanatory exhibit uses invented records to describe the mechanism. Separate recordings and working examples carry their own evidence notes.
Recorded history
