Batch four. Sixteen vision, video, and audio nodes.

Eight of these had no README at all

background_removal, caption, depth_estimate, detect, detect_segment, face_detection, pose_estimation, video_composer.

They have been invisible on the docs site — not stale, not thin, absent. This is the first documentation any of them has ever had, written entirely from source since there was no prior text to lean on.

All eight now build a page. Verified in dist/docs/nodes/<node>/index.html for each, and the site goes from 125 node pages to 133.

They were in a trap they could not escape

gather.js stages a node only when its README carries the ROCKETRIDE:GENERATED:PARAMS marker, and nodes:docs-generate will not create one — resolveDocPath returns null when it is absent. A node with no README therefore had no path to ever acquiring one.

Workers wrote the hand-written region only and were told explicitly not to invent a generated block. The marker pairs were then seeded and the generator run to fill them, in a separate commit. All that content is machine-produced.

Requirements got the most attention

Most of these declare the gpu capability, and ## Requirements is the section a reader acts on by provisioning hardware. The spec asked for it to be read from device selection and model-loading code rather than inferred from "it processes images" — being wrong here means someone buys a machine they do not need, or runs a pipeline that is silently far slower than expected.

Where a node does not declare gpu, the section is forbidden and was not added.

Verification

  • validate-node-readme.py — 16/16 pass, zero warnings
  • docs:test — 42/42
  • docs:build — compiles, no broken links, 133 node pages
  • all eight new pages confirmed present in the built output

Review note

The eight new files deserve the closest read — they have never been reviewed by anyone, and unlike the rewrites there is no previous version to compare against. Structure is machine-checked; the useful human question is whether the prose is true and whether the Requirements sections would actually stop someone provisioning the wrong hardware.

…nted nodes

These nodes had no README at all, so they had no marker region either, and
nodes:docs-generate cannot create one (resolveDocPath returns null when the
marker is absent). Seeded an empty pair per node and ran the generator to
fill it. Content is entirely machine-generated.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~15 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to e110b

This documentation-only PR still contains incorrect descriptions of configuration, output behavior, payload handling, buffering, and required profile metadata. Users could be misled about effective settings or node behavior, so the changes should be corrected or explicitly accepted before merging; runtime code is not changed.

Inline comments:
In `@nodes/src/nodes/audio_player/README.md`:
- Around line 8-18: Update the video lane description in the audio player README
to state that FFmpeg extracts and plays the video's audio track, while
preserving both audio and video as input-only lanes with no output lane.
- Around line 33-42: Update the playback documentation to describe the reachable
end-of-stream behavior in onData(): trailing input smaller than the 16 KiB chunk
size is discarded when the stream ends. Replace the callback-level roughly 24 ms
truncation statement; do not change player.py behavior or add flushing unless
explicitly implementing residual-buffer delivery.

In `@nodes/src/nodes/audio_transcribe/README.md`:
- Around line 37-61: Align the audio transcription configuration contract across
IGlobal.py, services.json, and the README: make model profiles populate the
runtime model key, map the displayed silence and VAD settings to the runtime
keys consumed by IGlobal.py, and document the separate chunk_duration and
max_chunk_duration buffering defaults of 60 and 120 seconds. Keep the generated
schema region unchanged.

In `@nodes/src/nodes/background_removal/README.md`:
- Line 60: Update the source description for background_removal.maxEdge in the
relevant services*.json so it states that the alpha matte is restored to the
original image dimensions before compositing, rather than the “(capped) source
size”; then regenerate the README block using the project’s documentation
generator without editing the generated region directly.

In `@nodes/src/nodes/detect/README.md`:
- Around line 53-56: Update the RF-DETR upstream documentation link label to
“RT-DETR fallback model page,” keeping its existing URL unchanged and leaving
the Grounding DINO link intact.

In `@nodes/src/nodes/image_cleanup/README.md`:
- Around line 40-44: Update the image MIME references in process.py and
morphology.py from JPEG to image/png, and change process_image’s return
annotation to tuple[str, bytes] to reflect that it returns the MIME type
together with the image bytes.

### Fixed playback format and buffering

Decoded PCM is accumulated into 16 KB chunks and placed into a bounded queue. When the queue holds 32 chunks, upstream writes block, providing natural backpressure that prevents unbounded memory growth.
The player is configured for 44,100 Hz, two-channel, signed 16-bit PCM output
with a low-latency stream and 1,024-frame callback blocks. It accumulates input
into 16 KiB chunks and enqueues at most 32 chunks; a full queue blocks incoming
writes. When stopped, it waits for the queue and callback buffer to drain.

On stop, the node polls until the queue and the internal playback buffer are both fully drained before closing the stream, so buffered audio plays to completion. One known limitation: the final partial frame smaller than the callback blocksize (1024 frames, about 24 ms at 44.1 kHz) is dropped rather than padded with silence. Roughly the last 24 ms of a stream may be cut off.
If playback has ended with less than a complete callback frame buffered, the
callback stops rather than padding silence. The source notes that this can cut
off the final roughly 24 ms of audio.

Document the reachable end-of-stream behavior

The fixed PCM format, callback size, 16 KiB chunks, 32-chunk queue, and blocking behavior match player.py. However, onData() discards trailing input smaller than 16 KiB when the stream ends. Replace the documented callback-level “roughly 24 ms” truncation with this behavior, or flush the residual buffer before sending the end marker.

Comment on lines +37 to +61
## Configuration

| Level | Behaviour |
|-------|-----------|
| `0` | Most permissive: detects the most audio as speech (risk: includes noise) |
| `1` | Slightly more aggressive: skips minor background noise (default) |
| `2` | Balanced: moderate filtering of non-speech |
| `3` | Most aggressive: filters aggressively, may cut off quiet or short speech |
The implementation buffers audio in 60-second chunks and forces a flush at 120
seconds; those timings are fixed in its Python source. Select a profile for
the declared configuration preset, then test the active runtime configuration
before relying on any profile-specific behavior.

---
### Model

## Models
The schema offers `tiny`, `base`, `small`, `medium`, and `large-v3`, with
`base` as its default. The runtime code reads a configuration key named
`model`; the profiles instead declare `mode`. This node source does not show
the mapping between those names, so confirm the loaded model from the startup
debug message before changing a profile for speed or accuracy.

| Model | Notes |
|------------|-------|
| `tiny` | Fastest, least accurate |
| `base` | Fast, low accuracy (default) |
| `small` | Medium speed and accuracy |
| `medium` | Slower, high accuracy |
| `large-v3` | Slowest, highest accuracy |
### Silence Threshold, Minimum Seconds, Maximum Seconds, and VAD Level

---
These configuration fields describe silence and batching controls, but the
runtime code reads differently named keys: `vad_threshold`,
`vad_min_silence_duration_ms`, and `vad_max_speech_duration_s`. It always
calls Whisper with voice-activity detection enabled, a beam size of 5, and
those runtime values' defaults of 0.5, 500 ms, and 20 seconds respectively.
Because this node source does not show a mapping from the displayed fields to
those runtime keys, validate the observed segmentation before depending on a
panel value to tune pauses or maximum speech length.

Align the audio transcription configuration contract.

  • Selecting a model profile sets mode, but IGlobal.py reads model, so every profile falls back to base.
  • silence_threshold, min_seconds, max_seconds, and vad_level are not read. Whisper uses fallback VAD values of 0.5, 500 ms, and 20 seconds.
  • Buffering uses separate chunk_duration and max_chunk_duration defaults of 60 and 120 seconds.

Align IGlobal.py, services.json, and this README. Keep the generated schema region unchanged.

Align the generated maxEdge description with the implementation.

nodes/src/nodes/background_removal/IInstance.py:35-119 restores the alpha matte to the original image dimensions before compositing it with orig_rgb. Line 60 says it is restored only to the “(capped) source size”. This gives users an incorrect output-size contract.

Update the source description in services*.json or the documentation generator, then regenerate this block. Do not edit the generated region directly.

As per path instructions, services*.json is the README source of truth and generated content must be regenerated. As per coding guidelines, do not hand-edit content between the generated markers.

Inputs whose MIME type is not `image/png` are opened with Pillow, converted to
RGBA, and saved as PNG. The cleanup stages then decode the PNG with OpenCV,
convert it to grayscale, apply a 5×5 Gaussian blur and CLAHE contrast
enhancement (clip limit 2.0; 8×8 tile grid), deskew it, and apply morphological
closing with a 2×2 kernel. The output is therefore a grayscale `image/png`.

Align the image MIME documentation with the PNG implementation.

Update the stale JPEG descriptions in process.py and morphology.py to image/png. Change process_image’s return annotation to tuple[str, bytes]; it returns both the MIME type and image bytes.

40-42: 🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Document residual-buffer loss at end of stream.

At Lines 40-42, the README documents only callback-level partial-frame truncation. Player.onData() enqueues only complete 16 KiB chunks and sends the end marker without flushing _chunk_accumulator. A stream whose length is not a multiple of 16 KiB therefore loses residual audio before the callback runs. At the documented format, this can discard up to approximately 93 ms.

As per path instructions, README prose must match the node’s code and services*.json.

Proposed documentation fix
-If playback has ended with less than a complete callback frame buffered, the
-callback stops rather than padding silence. The source notes that this can cut
-off the final roughly 24 ms of audio.
+When the input stream ends, `Player.onData()` discards residual data smaller
+than 16 KiB before it sends the end marker. At this format, this can discard

Eight nodes needed the intro sentence naming the declared default, which is
all the new contract asks of this family — no missing rows, no semantic-column
mismatches, no multi-service defaults. Markers switched to **(default)**.

The review also turned up a boilerplate problem worth fixing while the family
is open. Four ## Requirements sections opened with "This node is marked as
GPU-capable. Its metadata declares local CPU, Apple Silicon (MPS), and CUDA
operation" and closed with a variant of "The source does not specify VRAM
requirements or relative CPU performance." Both halves describe the metadata
and the writing process rather than the node: a reader who opens ## Requirements
wants to know what hardware to provision, and being told what the source failed
to mention answers nothing. Those sections now say where inference runs and what
the device lock does, and stop. depth_estimate keeps the one fact the closer was
carrying — its output is relative depth, not calibrated distance.

Same fix in two other places: caption pointed at sibling nodes via "the node
metadata directs object-detection use cases to Object Detection", and
audio_player attributed its own truncation note to "The source notes that...".

All 16 nodes pass.

Use a frame-count term for the 500-frame limit.

“Typical resolutions below 500 frames” conflates image resolution with sequence length. Replace it with “sequences of fewer than 500 frames” or the exact implementation limit.
