# Product-Shot Background Swap

Get an edit brief and a before/after acceptance checklist.

## Requirements

Requires the source photo, rights to edit it and an image-editing tool for actual output.

## Workflow

1. Inspect the product boundaries, logo/text, transparent parts, contact shadow and reflective surfaces.
2. Define the new background through a supplied palette or reference and state what must remain unchanged.
3. Use the available editor’s mask/reference mechanism rather than asking it to redraw the product indiscriminately.
4. Compare actual output with the source for altered geometry, labels, reflections, edge halos and missing contact shadows.
5. Return the edited file only after an edit was actually performed; otherwise return the precise brief and pending checks.

## Worked example

Read `examples/input.txt` and `examples/expected.txt` before adapting the workflow.

## Acceptance checks

Preservation requirements are explicit, and proposed edits are not mislabeled as delivered image files.

## Limits

Automated editing can change small text and reflective edges. Final visual comparison is required.

Worked example included. Model-specific performance and vendor compatibility have not been benchmarked.
