 - OpenAI scores background_contrast at 5/10 for "Missing text or in black" vs Gemini at 3/10 — OpenAI is more lenient on dark-on-dark product contrast.
 - "Text on top of image" text_readability scores 6-7 (borderline pass) — the text is actually reasonably legible (black on white), so this may be accurate. Main issue is the missing brand logo caught by background_contrast.
 
+#### L'Oreal Prompt Tuning Round 2 (2026-04-07)
+Prompts refined based on testing with 5 new assets — L'Oreal Professionnel Absolut Repair Molecular product range:
+
+**Test files location**: `/Users/nickviljoen/Desktop/AI_QC_Bitbucket/loreal/New Assets/AI QC test/`
+**Reports location**: `/Users/nickviljoen/Desktop/AI_QC_Bitbucket/loreal/New Assets/reports3/`
+
+**Test files**:
+| Test File | Type | Expected Result |
+|---|---|---|
+| LP-ARM_MASK_BELOWTHEFOLD_MODULE4_CARROUSEL4_COMMITMENTS...pt-PT.jpg | Marketing layout (Portuguese) with product | Pass |
+| LP-ARM_SHAMPOO_BELOWTHEFOLD_MODULE4_CARROUSEL4_COMMITMENTS...pt-PT.jpg | Marketing layout (Portuguese) with product | Pass |
+| LP-ARM_MASK_BELOWTHEFOLD_MODULE6_COMPARISONTABLE1_488X700_MULTIPLE_EAN.jpg | Product-only shot (mask jar) | Pass |
+| LP-ARM_MASK_BELOWTHEFOLD_MODULE6_COMPARISONTABLE2_488X700_MULTIPLE_EAN.jpg | Product-only shot (leave-in bottle) | Pass |
+| test.png | Kerastase products blending into light background (Hungarian) | Fail |
+
+**Issues found and fixes applied**:
+1. **text_readability**: Product-only shots (no marketing text) were scoring 1-2/10 as "critical failure — text missing entirely." Fixed by adding a carve-out: product-only images with no marketing layout score 7/10 neutral with explanation "no marketing text to evaluate." Assets where marketing text SHOULD exist but is hidden/invisible still score 1-2.
+2. **background_contrast**: Cream/light products on white backgrounds (standard cosmetics photography) were failing because the prompt had a rigid rule: "light-coloured products on light backgrounds = FAIL." Rewritten to focus on **actual visibility** — products pass if they have visual separation cues (shadows, edge definition, texture differences, contrasting elements like dark lids) even on similar-coloured backgrounds. Only fails if the product genuinely disappears into the background.
+3. **UI fix**: Long filenames (common in L'Oreal asset naming) were overflowing the file queue container. Fixed with `overflow: hidden`, `text-overflow: ellipsis`, `min-width: 0` on queue items, and `word-break` on report filenames.
+
+**Current detection accuracy (2026-04-07, Gemini 3 Pro)**:
+
+| File | Score | Grade | Notes |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| MASK_COMMITMENTS (pt-PT) | 96.7 | Pass | Language 10, Contrast 10, Readability 9 |
+| SHAMPOO_COMMITMENTS (pt-PT) | 93.3 | Pass | Language 10, Contrast 10, Readability 8 |
+| COMPARISONTABLE2 (bottle) | 90.0 | Pass | Language 10, Contrast 10, Readability 7 (neutral) |
+| COMPARISONTABLE1 (jar) | 86.7 | Pass | Readability 7 (neutral), Contrast 9, Language 10 |
+| test.png (Kerastase) | 73.3 | Fail | Contrast 4 — products genuinely blend into background |
+
+All 4 good assets correctly pass. The defective asset (test.png) correctly fails due to poor product-background contrast.
