The generated-media surface previously had almost no upscaler coverage:
only fal-ai/flux-2-pro chained Clarity Upscaler (hardcoded catalog
default), every other image model returned ~1MP output with no high-res
path, and video had no upscaler at all. Krea's API treats the enhancer
as a standard second pass; this brings the same shape to Hermes.
- image_generate: new optional 'upscale' boolean in the tool schema.
Explicit true chains the backend upscaler on ANY model (including
edits); explicit false disables flux-2-pro's automatic default;
omitted keeps per-model catalog behavior. Response now reports
'upscaled' so the agent knows which resolution it got.
- FAL image path: explicit flag overrides the catalog 'upscale' default
(Clarity Upscaler, 2x). Failure falls back to the native image.
- Krea plugin: upscale=true chains Krea Enhance
(/generate/enhance/krea/enhance, 2x, prompt-guided) through the same
BYO/managed base URL + auth as generation, with a best-effort poll
loop that never fails a successful generation.
- video_generate: new optional 'upscale' boolean; FAL video plugin
chains ByteDance SeedVR2 (fal-ai/seedvr/upscale/video, 2x factor
mode). Providers without upscalers ignore the kwarg per the ABC
contract (documented in both ABCs).
Validation: targeted suites green (123 tests across 6 files, including
new coverage for override-wins/default-kept/failure-fallback on all
three paths); live E2E on direct FAL verified both chains end-to-end
(klein 9b + Clarity upscaled image; pixverse-v6 1s 360p + SeedVR2
upscaled video).
