"""Custom modular-diffusers block: image OR text -> Ideogram 4 structured-JSON caption.
Wraps a vision-language model (Gemma-4-E4B via `Gemma4ForConditionalGeneration`) with two modes, selected by input:
- `image` given -> caption the image into Ideogram 4's native JSON schema (the `ideogram4-caption` Space logic).
- `prompt` given (no image) -> enhance the short text idea into a JSON caption (Ideogram's "magic prompt",
reusing the canonical `CAPTION_SYSTEM_MESSAGE` from `diffusers.pipelines.ideogram4.prompt_enhancer`).
Either way the produced `caption` can be fed straight into the Ideogram 4 generation pipeline as the `prompt`
(the model is trained on these JSON captions). This is the code-usable backend, minus the Gradio UI.
