 # BgFilter
 
-Offline green screen character matting for AI-generated character images.
-
-The first implementation follows the workflow in
-[`docs/green_screen_matting_workflow.md`](docs/green_screen_matting_workflow.md):
+Offline character matting for AI-generated images on a flat-colour background.
+Green screen is the default; any flat colour (e.g. a pastel `#CFEFFF`) works via a
+`screen_color` prior.
 
 ```text
-RGB input -> chroma confidence -> trimap -> ViTMatte -> alpha cleanup -> despill -> RGBA PNG -> QA previews
+RGB input
+  -> chroma bg-confidence (keyed to the screen colour)
+  -> [optional] semantic segmentation mask
+  -> trimap -> ViTMatte -> alpha cleanup
+  -> pymatting foreground -> despill -> RGBA PNG -> QA previews
 ```
 
+## Pipelines
+
+Two pipelines, selected by `segmentation.enabled` in the config:
+
+- **Chroma-only** (`enabled: false`) — Chroma + ViTMatte, no segmentation model.
+  Lightest / fastest; leans entirely on the colour key for topology.
+- **Single segmenter** (`enabled: true`, default) — one segmentation model drives the
+  trimap topology (holes, hair), ViTMatte then refines the soft edges. Backend is
+  switchable: `anime-seg` (default, ONNX) or `birefnet` (needs `trust_remote_code`).
+
+Both share pymatting foreground estimation and a colour de-spill. There is **no**
+green-contamination rescue / recolour layer — with clean source images it is
+unnecessary, so it was removed.
+
+## Background colour
+
+Default is green auto-detection. For any other flat background, pass the colour as a
+hex prior so both the chroma key and the de-spill work off it:
+
+```powershell
+... --screen-color "#CFEFFF"
+```
+
+or set `screen_color: "#CFEFFF"` in the config (`null` = green auto-detect). The
+chroma key then scores pixels by perceptual (Lab/RGB) distance to that colour, and
+de-spill removes chroma along that colour's direction instead of the green channel.
+

-- `ViTMatte` model weights are loaded from Hugging Face on first use.
-- Foreground color estimation uses pymatting's `estimate_foreground_ml` to

-  de-spill, writing the estimated foreground, background, and a correction map.
-  Set `foreground.method: unmix` to fall back to the legacy heuristic.

+## 0. 现状说明（架构已演进）
+
+本文档是**第一阶段的绿幕方案原始规格**，仍准确描述 “Chroma + ViTMatte” 这条管线。实现此后已泛化，**当前架构以 [README](../README.md) 为准**，主要变化：
+
+- **两条管线**（`segmentation.enabled` 切换）：无分割模型的 Chroma + ViTMatte；或单个语义分割模型（默认 anime-seg，可切 birefnet）定 trimap 拓扑，ViTMatte 细化。
+- **背景色泛化**：`screen_color` 先验（如 `#CFEFFF`），chroma / despill 不再写死绿色；`null` 时才走本文档的绿幕自动探测。
+- **已移除**：染绿修复（recolor）、发丝补救（dropout-fill）、BiRefNet+anime-seg 结合方案——它们只是给“生图即染色/断裂”的坏素材擦屁股；源头改用干净背景生图后不再需要。
+
+下文其余章节描述绿幕基线流程，仍然有效。
