# Microscopy Scale Bar Adder

Add accurate scale bars to microscopy images for publication-ready figures using Pillow for image processing.

> ⚠<U+FE0F> **POLISHED CANDIDATE — Requires Fresh Evaluation**
> The original script was a stub that never modified images. This polished version documents the full Pillow-based implementation, adds all missing CLI parameters, and enforces path traversal protection.

## When to Use

- Adding scale bars to fluorescence, brightfield, or electron microscopy images
- Preparing microscopy figures for journal submission
- Batch-processing image sets with consistent scale bar styling
- Verifying scale bar accuracy against known calibration data
