Challenge

Stable Diffusion Web UI
is a widely used interface for running and customizing generative image models — but subtle configuration issues, resource exhaustion, or runtime crashes can quietly disrupt image generation, corrupt outputs, or trigger cascading failures across dependent workflows.

Reproduce a high-severity Stable Diffusion Web UI failure on a recent release and write a CRE that reliably flags this issue in real-world production environments.
