+## LanPaint Inpainting
+
+LanPaint is a training-free inpainting sampler that gives diffusion models
+"think mode": instead of denoising in one pass, it runs up to N inner Langevin
+steps per sampling step, letting the model reconcile the prompt-driven region
+with the known (kept) region before committing to the update. It is a port of
+the [ComfyUI LanPaint extension](https://github.com/scraed/LanPaint)
+(official implementation of
+["LanPaint: Training-Free Diffusion Inpainting with Asymptotically Exact and Fast Conditional Sampling"](https://arxiv.org/abs/2502.03491),
+TMLR 2025), with the parameter defaults of the v2.1.0 ComfyUI node.
+
+In essence, the inpainting problem is modeled as a conditional stochastic
+process, and LanPaint integrates it numerically with
+[Langevin dynamics](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Langevin_dynamics). The
+drift of the process is assembled from the underlying model's own denoising
+solutions, i.e. its inferred solutions of the unconditional version of the
+same process, so the conditional problem is solved without retraining. Each
+inner iteration is one integration step of this process, and each step costs
+one model evaluation; that is the exchange of extra compute for inpainting
+quality: up to `1 + n_steps` model evaluations per sampling step instead of one.
+
+### Usage
+
+Provide an init image and a mask and enable LanPaint:
+
+```bash
+sd-cli -m model.safetensors -i images/input.png --mask images/mask.png \
+    -p "a cozy living room, photorealistic" \
+    --strength 1.0 --sampling-method euler --lanpaint -v
+```
+
+Mask convention (same as the rest of `stable-diffusion.cpp`): **white (255)
+marks the region that gets repainted, black (0) marks the region that is kept.**
+Masks are binarized at load time and evaluated at latent resolution. When no
+mask is given, LanPaint is inactive and sampling proceeds like the plain
+sampler.
+
+The inner loop needs both a conditional and an unconditional model branch.
+Guidance-distilled models without an unconditional branch (for example
+turbo/schnell variants) run, but the keep-region guidance degenerates and the
+LanPaint benefit largely disappears.
+
+### Parameters
+
+| Flag | Description | Default |
+|------|-------------|---------|
+| `--lanpaint` | enable LanPaint | off |
+| `--lanpaint-n-steps` | number of inner Langevin steps per sampling step ("turns of thinking"); the effective count ramps down near the end of the schedule | 5 |
+| `--lanpaint-lambda` | strength of the keep-region (bidirectional) guidance | 5.0 |
+| `--lanpaint-beta` | time-scale ratio of the keep-region branch | 1.0 |
+| `--lanpaint-step-size` | Langevin step size; scaled by the remaining noise fraction of the current step | 0.2 |
+| `--lanpaint-early-stop` | skip the inner loop for the last N sampling steps (they only polish with a plain evaluation) | 1 |
+| `--lanpaint-min-step-frac` | when the remaining noise fraction drops below this value, the step size is pinned there and the inner-step count ramps down to zero | 1.0 |
+| `--lanpaint-prompt-first` | Prompt First mode: sets the BIG guidance scale to -0.5, emphasizing prompt following over mask-boundary coherence | off (Image First) |
+| `--lanpaint-cfg-big` | explicit BIG guidance scale override; by default it resolves to `--cfg-scale` (Image First) or -0.5 (Prompt First) | auto |
+
+`Image First` (default) and `Prompt First` change how strongly the inner loop
+is anchored to the already-known image versus the prompt. Use Image First for
+seamless object insertion in the known surroundings; use Prompt First when the
+repainted region should follow the prompt even at the cost of boundary
+coherence.
+
+LanPaint inherits every per-step feature of the outer sampler: conditioning, Control
+Net, IP-Adapter, reference latents, video masks, previews and cancellation.
+
+### Cost
+
+Each inner step costs one model evaluation (conditional + unconditional), so a
+run needs up to `steps x (1 + n_steps)` evaluations. At INFO log level the
+planned count is printed before sampling starts:
+
+```
+LanPaint: 16 outer steps, up to 5 inner steps per outer step, 68 model evaluations planned (16 without LanPaint)
+```
+
+At VERBOSE level every inner step is logged. With the defaults, `early_stop`
+and the `min_step_frac` ramp already keep the tail of the schedule cheap.
+Recommended `--lanpaint-n-steps` range: 2-8 (the upstream default of 5 is a
+good quality/speed balance).
+
+### Supported samplers and models
+
+- Samplers: `euler` (recommended), `euler_a`, `heun`, `dpm2`, `dpm++2m`,
+  `dpm++2mv2`. Other samplers are rejected with an error.
+- Models: everything using the standard denoiser noise scaling, including
+  SD1.x/SD2.x (eps, v-prediction, EDM), SDXL, SD3/SD3.5, FLUX, Chroma,
+  Qwen-Image, Wan, HunyuanVideo, and LTX video models.
+- Not supported (rejected with an error):
+  - MiniT2I and SeFi (custom latent scaling / dual time conventions),
+  - SenseNova U1.5 (its noise scaling discards the latent, which would
+    overwrite the kept region),
+  - MiniMax-H3 and LTX-AV (audio rows follow a per-stream noise schedule the
+    inner loop does not model).
+- Sampling caches (`--cache-mode`, for example) are disabled under LanPaint:
+  the inner loop's repeated evaluations at one step index break their reuse
+  accounting.
