AI-suggested

Users should avoid supplying negative ratio values to the Carve::apply function as a temporary mitigation. Monitor the vendor advisory for updates regarding an official fix.

Description

imagecli's pipeline operation (Carve::apply in src/image_ops.rs) only asserts , never validating that the ratio is positive. A negative ratio (e.g. -5) causes the computed target width to saturate to 0 via Rust's defined float-to-uint cast, which is then passed to imageproc::seam_carving::shrink_width — a function that panics when given a width below 2, crashing the process.
