+
+## How to Remove Gemini Watermarks
+
+### Online Gemini Watermark Remover (Recommended)
+
+For all users — the fastest and easiest way to remove Gemini watermarks from images:
+
+1. Open **[pilio.ai/gemini-watermark-remover](https://pilio.ai/gemini-watermark-remover)**.
+2. Drag and drop or click to select your Gemini-generated image.
+3. The engine will automatically process and remove the watermark.
+4. Download the cleaned image.
+
+### Userscript
+
+1. Install a userscript manager (e.g., Tampermonkey or Greasemonkey).
+2. Open [gemini-watermark-remover.user.js](https://gemini.pilio.ai/userscript/gemini-watermark-remover.user.js).
+3. The script will install automatically.
+4. Navigate to Gemini conversation pages.
+5. Eligible Gemini preview images on the page are replaced in place after processing.
+6. Gemini's native "Copy Image" and "Download Image" actions also return processed results.
+
+Current userscript boundaries:
+
+- no injected per-image controls
+- no popup UI or bulk action surface
+- page previews and native copy/download flows are both processed when the source image is reachable
+- preview images keep the original visible while processing, with a subdued `Processing...` overlay
+- if preview processing fails, the original page image stays visible and usable
+
+### Skill
+
+For workflows that involve AI coding agents:
+
+- `skills/gemini-watermark-remover/` contains a packaged Skill that agents can discover and invoke.
+- Usage:
+
+```bash
+node skills/gemini-watermark-remover/scripts/run.mjs remove <input> --output <file>
+```
+
+- See [`SKILL.md`](skills/gemini-watermark-remover/SKILL.md) for agent integration details.
+
+### CLI
+
+For scripting, CI, and local batch workflows, use the direct CLI:
+
+```bash
+# repo-local
+node bin/gwr.mjs remove <input> --output <file>
+
+# installed globally
+gwr remove <input> [--output <file> | --out-dir <dir>] [--overwrite] [--json]
+```
+
+If you do not have `gwr` installed globally, use:
+
+```bash
+pnpm dlx @pilio/gemini-watermark-remover remove <input> --output <file>
+```
+
+### Developer Preview
+
+If you are a developer or contributor, you can preview the latest development build at [gemini.pilio.ai](https://gemini.pilio.ai). This site is a separate online preview/local-processing experience, distinct from the userscript. It may contain experimental features and is not intended for general use.
+
+## Development
+
+```bash
+# Install dependencies
+pnpm install
+
+# Development build
+pnpm dev
+
+# Production build
+pnpm build
+
+# Local preview
+pnpm serve
+```
+
+### Cloudflare Deployment Note
+
+- `wrangler.toml` is the deployment config for the Cloudflare Worker/assets entry of this project.
+- It points Wrangler at the built `dist/` directory and should be kept even if local tests or source imports do not reference it directly.
+
+### Tampermonkey Debugging on macOS
+
+For the repo's fixed-profile workflow on macOS:
+
+```bash
+# Build the latest userscript
+pnpm build
+
+# Start a local dist server if needed
+pnpm dev
+
+# Open the fixed Chrome profile with remote debugging enabled
+./scripts/open-fixed-chrome-profile.sh --url https://gemini.google.com/app
+```
+
+Notes:
+
+- the fixed profile lives under `.chrome-debug/tampermonkey-profile`
+- default CDP port is `9226`
+- default proxy is `http://127.0.0.1:7890`; disable it with `--proxy off` if not needed
+- reinstall the latest userscript from the active local `pnpm dev` server
+- `pnpm dev` starts probing from `http://127.0.0.1:4173/` and auto-increments if that port is already occupied
+- if you are following a previously captured debugging session, its port may differ; trust the current `pnpm dev` output instead of hardcoding `4173`
+
+## SDK Usage (Advanced / Internal)
+
+The package root still exposes an SDK, but this path is intended for advanced or internal integration scenarios:
+
+```javascript
+import {
+  createWatermarkEngine,
+  removeWatermarkFromImage,
+  removeWatermarkFromImageData,
+  removeWatermarkFromImageDataSync,
+} from '@pilio/gemini-watermark-remover';
+```
+
+Use the pure-data API when you already have decoded `ImageData`:
+
+```javascript
+const result = await removeWatermarkFromImageData(imageData, {
+  adaptiveMode: 'auto',
+  maxPasses: 4,
+});
+
+console.log(result.meta.decisionTier);
+```
+
+Use the browser image API when you have an `HTMLImageElement` or `HTMLCanvasElement`:
+
+```javascript
+const { canvas, meta } = await removeWatermarkFromImage(imageElement);
+document.body.append(canvas);
+console.log(meta.applied, meta.decisionTier);
+```
+
+If you need to process many images, reuse a single engine instance so alpha maps stay cached:
+
+```javascript
+const engine = await createWatermarkEngine();
+const first = await removeWatermarkFromImageData(imageDataA, { engine });
+const second = await removeWatermarkFromImageData(imageDataB, { engine });
+```
+
+For Node.js integrations, use the dedicated subpath and inject your own decoder/encoder:
+
+```javascript
+import { removeWatermarkFromBuffer } from '@pilio/gemini-watermark-remover/node';
+
+const result = await removeWatermarkFromBuffer(inputBuffer, {
+  mimeType: 'image/png',
+  decodeImageData: yourDecodeFn,
+  encodeImageData: yourEncodeFn,
+});
+```
+
+## Runtime Requirements
+
+### Web And Userscript
+
+- modern Chrome / Firefox / Safari / Edge class browser
+- ES modules
+- Canvas API
+- Async/Await
+- TypedArray (`Float32Array`, `Uint8ClampedArray`)
+- for the website copy button: `navigator.clipboard.write(...)` and `ClipboardItem`
+
+### CLI And Skill
+
+- a local Node.js runtime capable of running this package and its dependencies
+- filesystem access for local input/output paths
+- for repo-local usage:
+
+```bash
+node bin/gwr.mjs remove <input> --output <file>
+node skills/gemini-watermark-remover/scripts/run.mjs remove <input> --output <file>
+```
+
+- for distributed Skill usage, the local environment must be able to execute the packaged `gwr` CLI boundary
+
+## Testing
+
+```bash
+# Run all tests
+pnpm test
+```
+
+Regression tests include image fixtures from `src/assets/samples/`.
+Source samples stay in git.
+Naming and retention rules for those fixtures are documented in `src/assets/samples/README.md`.
+Complex preview/download validation notes are documented in `docs/complex-figure-verification-checklist.md`.
+Local files under `src/assets/samples/fix/` are optional snapshot outputs for manual regression checks and are intentionally not tracked by git.
+
+## Release Notes
+
+See [CHANGELOG.md](CHANGELOG.md) for release history and [RELEASE.md](RELEASE.md) for the local release checklist.
+
+## How Gemini Watermark Removal Works
+
+### The Gemini Watermarking Process
+
+Gemini applies watermarks using standard alpha compositing:
+
+$$watermarked = \alpha \cdot logo + (1 - \alpha) \cdot original$$
+
+Where:
+- `watermarked`: The pixel value with the watermark.
+- `α`: The Alpha channel value (0.0 - 1.0).
+- `logo`: The watermark logo color value (White = 255).
+- `original`: The raw, original pixel value we want to recover.
+
+### The Reverse Solution
+
+To remove the watermark, we solve for `original`:
+
+$$original = \frac{watermarked - \alpha \cdot logo}{1 - \alpha}$$
+
+By capturing the watermark on a known solid background, we reconstruct the exact Alpha map and apply the inverse formula to restore the original pixels with zero loss.
+
+## Detection Rules
+
+The engine uses layered detection to locate and verify watermarks:
+
+1. **Size catalog lookup** — matches image dimensions against Gemini's known output sizes to predict watermark size and position.
+2. **Local anchor search** — refines the predicted position by scanning pixel data around the expected watermark region.
+3. **Restoration validation** — confirms the detected watermark is real before applying removal, avoiding false positives.
+
+Default watermark configurations:
+
+| Condition | Watermark Size | Right Margin | Bottom Margin |
+| :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- |
+| Larger Gemini outputs | 96×96 | 64px | 64px |
+| Smaller Gemini outputs | 48×48 | 32px | 32px |

+
+## Architecture Overview
+
+- `src/core/` contains watermark detection, candidate selection, restoration metrics, and the reverse-alpha removal pipeline.
+- `src/userscript/`, `src/page/`, and `src/shared/` implement the real Gemini page integration, including preview replacement plus copy/download interception.
+- `src/cli/` and `bin/gwr.mjs` expose file-oriented local automation.
+- `skills/gemini-watermark-remover/` provides a distributable Skill that stays on the CLI boundary instead of importing repository internals directly.
+- `src/sdk/` remains available for advanced/internal integrations, but it is no longer the primary public entrypoint.
+
+---
+
+## Limitations
+
+- Only removes **Gemini visible watermarks** <small>(the semi-transparent logo in bottom-right)</small>
+- Does not remove invisible/steganographic watermarks. <small>[(Learn more about SynthID)](https://support.google.com/gemini/answer/16722517)</small>
+- Designed for Gemini's current visible watermark pattern <small>(validated against this repo through April 2026)</small>
