Popi/NewAPIWG is now the primary gateway, so the UI and request paths need to avoid legacy provider assumptions while keeping local reference media usable for upstream calls. This change aligns model defaults, point display, inline node controls, and temporary reference image handling around that gateway boundary.
Constraint: Upstream providers cannot fetch localhost reference URLs, but large base64 payloads previously caused request/body reliability issues.
Constraint: Seedance point estimates depend on authenticated NewAPIWG /api/points/estimate responses rather than static catalog prices.
Rejected: Send all reference images directly as large data URLs | would reintroduce oversized JSON/request failures.
Rejected: Restore legacy per-provider key controls by default | current product direction is a single Popi/NewAPI gateway.
Confidence: high
Scope-risk: moderate
Directive: Do not pass /api/images localhost URLs to upstream generation APIs; resolve them server-side or fail before the upstream call.

Tested: npm run build
Tested: git diff --check
Not-tested: npm run lint fails because next lint is parsed as a missing /lint project directory under Next 16.
