crispz-studio : a 100% local, Fooocus-style studio for Z-Image (no ComfyUI / SwarmUI)
I've been building crispz-studio: a standalone creation + enhancement tool for Tongyi Z-Image, fully local, with a Fooocus-style UI and a scriptable CLI. One app, no node graphs.
What it does
🎨 Text → Image (Z-Image Turbo / Base) with an optional "Upscale after generate" toggle that auto-chains each image through the ESRGAN + Z-Image refine pipeline — no manual step.
🔍 Upscale / detailer: Real-ESRGAN + Z-Image refine, 4K tiling.
🖌️ Inpaint / Outpaint in one tab, 3 modes: Brush (paint a mask), Expand sides (outpaint L/R/T/B + Center), Reframe (new aspect ratio, Contain/Cover). Bounded to the model's ~1 MP sweet spot, with blurred-edge fill + feathered seams, an optional Harmonize pass, and Auto-describe (local captioner — no Ollama) so outpaints stay coherent even with an empty prompt.
🧩 Models: one dropdown to switch between the official base repos, single-file .safetensors (Civitai) from two folders, transformer overrides (e.g. Juggernaut-Z), and multi-LoRA (3 slots). Picking a model auto-syncs the steps/guidance preset.
🧑🎤 Face Swap (+GFPGAN restore), Remove Background, 277 styles (search + hover previews).
🗂️ Asset Browser: opens instantly, defaults to today, placeholder thumbnails while loading, full metadata + search.
🤖 Ollama optional for Describe / Improve prompt / Vision Mix — with local fallbacks so everything works fully offline.
🖥️ CLI + persistent server mode — every feature is scriptable.
Every image saves its full metadata (prompt, seed, params, model, LoRAs, styles, sampler) as PNG text + EXIF + .json sidecar.
100% local. Free & open source. Tested on RTX 5090 / CUDA 12.8.
