bb2d2005ce Layer: Un-precompose a selected pre-comp layer back into its parent composition (#3081)
* Layer: Un-precompose a selected pre-comp layer back into its parent composition (#2918)

layer.unprecompose copies the nested composition's layers into the parent at the pre-comp
layer's place with timing and position carried over, and refuses what it can't keep exactly.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* Un-precompose: refuse a pre-comp layer with Solo or Guide on

A soloed pre-comp layer hides the comp's other layers and a guide layer is
left out of renders; the expanded copies carry neither switch, so the picture
would change. Listed with the other blockers, in the command description and
the agents.md Cookbook entry; the refusal test covers both switches.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* Un-precompose: warn instead of refusing, only a locked layer stops it

A locked pre-comp layer is still refused, with or without `force`. Every
other former refusal reason is a warning: without `force`,
`layer.unprecompose` returns an error that lists the reasons and changes
nothing. `dryRun` returns `{dryRun, warnings}`. With `force` the layer is
unpacked in one undo step and the result carries `warnings`. Whatever the
pre-comp layer itself carried is dropped, and other layers' parent, track
matte and layer-property links to it are removed.

Layer > Un-precompose in the UI lists the reasons in a prompt with
Unpack Anyway / Cancel (`dialog.unprecompose.force` /
`dialog.unprecompose.cancel`). A layer without reasons unpacks at once.

* Un-precompose: warn about expressions that refer to the pre-comp layer

An expression on another layer of the comp that names the pre-comp layer
would no longer find it once the layer is unpacked. The expression can
name it in quotes or call `layer(<index>)` with its index, bare or on
thisComp; another comp's comp("…").layer(…) is not counted. Each such
property is now listed once as a warning. Like the other warnings,
`force` unpacks and `dryRun` lists it. The expressions are left as
written.

* Un-precompose: warn about lost frame sampling and Position expressions, keep markers in order

Review follow-up (CodeRabbit on #3081):
- A nested comp that preserves a frame rate other than the parent's
  samples its layers on its own frames, and the expanded copies would
  lose that. Motion-blurred nested layers under a different shutter
  would also blur with the parent's shutter. Both are now warnings.
- When the pre-comp layer's Position differs from its Anchor Point, the
  move is added to the stored Position of the unparented nested layers.
  An unparented layer whose Position, or a separated axis, has an
  expression may ignore that move, so it is now a warning.
- Copied comp markers are sorted into time order with the comp's own.
- New tests: a 10 fps nested comp with Preserve Frame Rate in a 30 fps
  comp, a different shutter, a Position expression with and without a
  move, and nested matte and layer-value remapping with shifted markers
  merged in order.

52bca964f5 Image sequences: a gap in the numbering holds the previous frame, as After Effects (#3137)
* Image sequences: a gap in the numbering holds the previous frame, as After Effects

Split out of #1876 (originally 7850cbf4), because it reverses the colour bars
documented in #297 and needs its own discussion.

After Effects 2026 shows the last existing file across a gap in a sequence's
numbering (files 1, 2, 4, 5 show frame 2 at frame 3; read back from After
Effects). EffectCraft drew colour bars there. The media pool now holds the
previous file (Footage::sequence_file_held); colour bars remain only where no
file precedes the frame. Missing-frame reports on import are unchanged.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* Image sequences: hold the first file of the preceding number across a gap; fix the import warning

A gap now holds the file sequence_file picks for the preceding number, so
files sharing a number do not switch at the gap. The Report Missing Frames
warning says the previous frame is held instead of "shown as placeholders".

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* Image sequences: Interpret Footage says a gap holds the previous frame

The Interpret Footage note for a numbered sequence with gaps still said the
missing frames are shown as colour bars; the media pool holds the previous
frame there now. The note, its comment and two test doc comments say so,
and a forms test checks the note's wording.

719b9170dd 3D rotation order, keyed Orientation, linear-to-eased keyframes and Timewarp behave as in After Effects (#1876)
* 3D: Orientation and X/Y/Z Rotation turn Z first, keyed Orientation slerps, as After Effects

After Effects composes a 3D layer's (and a camera's) Orientation and its X/Y/Z
Rotation as Rx * Ry * Rz each, Orientation before the axis rotations; EffectCraft
used Rz * Ry * Rx. Measured on synthetic AE 2026 cases: Orientation [10,20,30]
(488) was 5.2 % of the frame off and now matches to the anti-aliased edge (0.03 %);
X/Y/Z Rotation 10/20/30 (800), Orientation + X Rotation (801) and one-node
cameras (804, 805) likewise.

Keyed Orientation moves along the shortest arc between the keys (quaternion
slerp, eased in time, angles written in [0, 360)): keys [0,0,0] -> [10,20,30]
read back [6.2643, 9.3531, 15.2190] half-way where EffectCraft gave [5,10,15];
[0,0,0] -> [60,80,40] linear and eased match AE's read-backs within 0.002 deg.

lookAt() returns AE's angles (z axis on the target, x axis level; two AE
read-backs within 1e-3 deg). The camera tracker, VR editor, Look At and orbit
commands use the new decomposition.

* Keyframes: a linear side next to an eased side has 16.67 % influence, as After Effects

In a segment that is Bezier on one side and linear on the other, the linear
side keeps the segment's average speed, but with the 16.67 % influence After
Effects shows for linear keys in the Keyframe Velocity dialog (and reports to
scripts), not 33.3 %. Measured on an After Effects 2026 time-remap render (a
square at x = 50 + 455 * remap): out of a key at 2 s (3.5, speed 0, influence
50 %) into a linear key at 4 s (0.5), AE plays 3.290 at 2.5 s and 2.657 at
3 s; EffectCraft played 3.308 and 2.629 (8 and 13 px off), now the same
square positions to the pixel.

LINEAR_SIDE_INFLUENCE is used by evaluation (scalar, per-dimension, paths and
spatial), side_ease (Graph Editor, velocity dialog, keyIn/OutTemporalEase) and
the Lottie export, so exported easing plays as EffectCraft does. Segments
linear on both sides stay straight lines.

* Timewarp: retime the layer's source without the effects above it, as After Effects

After Effects' Timewarp reads the layer's source (with its masks) at the
retimed times and ignores the effects applied before it: a red solid with a
Gradient Ramp and then Timewarp (Speed 25) renders as the red solid in AE
2026 (EXPORTER e2 read-back). EffectCraft retimed the layer with its
effects (mean difference 127.5/255 over the comp), now identical (0, CPU and
GPU). Echo, Posterize Time and the other time effects keep reading the
effects before them, as measured before.

* Image sequences: a gap in the numbering holds the previous frame, as After Effects

After Effects 2026 shows the last existing file across a gap in a sequence's
numbering (case 860: files 1, 2, 4, 5 show frame 2 at frame 3; VERIFY
read-back). EffectCraft drew colour bars there. The media pool now holds the
previous file (Footage::sequence_file_held); colour bars remain only where no
file precedes the frame. Missing-frame reports on import are unchanged.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* Review: keyed Orientation uses LINEAR_SIDE_INFLUENCE for linear sides; real NaN assert

evaluate_orientation still gave a linear side (and the unreachable missing-key fallback)
1/3 influence while segment_value, side_ease and the Lottie export use
LINEAR_SIDE_INFLUENCE (1/6), so a keyed Orientation next to an eased key moved on a
different curve than every other property (CodeRabbit on #1876). New test:
orientation_linear_side_next_to_an_eased_side_matches_a_scalar (both directions).
The always-true NaN assert in keyed_orientation_slerps_as_after_effects now checks that
a non-finite key comes back as given; Property::value_at says why the match_id
"orientation" routing is safe.

ca1ff9cfc2 .aep import: map the Cryptomatte plug-in to EffectCraft's Cryptomatte (#3109)
* AEP import: map the Cryptomatte plug-in to EffectCraft's Cryptomatte

The importer reported every instance of the free Cryptomatte plug-in
(match name `Cryptomatte`) as a lost effect. It now becomes
`ec.3d.cryptomatte`:

- CryptomatteData decodes the plug-in's Settings data (its own
  little-endian layout, documented in docs/aep-format.md 3.7): the
  Cryptomatte layer name and the selection text, both carried verbatim.
- Output maps to Display / Matte Only (Colors -> Colors, Matted RGBA ->
  Matte, Matte Only -> Matte Only). Matted Colors, Selection Mode when on,
  keys or expressions and anything else stored are reported, and
  unreadable data is reported as damaged.
- EffectCraft's Cryptomatte gains a Layer Name text parameter. A layer the
  footage has under exactly that name wins; otherwise the Layer popup
  decides as before. The CPU, GPU and pick paths share one resolver
  (AuxChannels::resolve_crypto_layer_named). Without it, plug-in layer
  names such as Crypto_Material would silently fall back to the first
  layer.

On a real production project this takes the effect losses from 132 to 44.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* AEP import: check Cryptomatte against an After Effects 2026 sample of our own

A sample made in After Effects 2026 (plug-in 2.6.6: a fresh effect,
Selection Mode on, each Output item, with read-backs and renders)
corrected three points of the mapping:

- Selection Mode on was dropped silently: After Effects writes it as a
  default-state record (tdsb 3) holding 1, which the general reader does
  not take. The Cryptomatte step reads that record itself and reports it.
- No Output record is now the plug-in's default Colors, also for an
  instance that borrows the project's definition (every instance after
  the first), which was reported as having no reliable default and fell
  back to EffectCraft's Preview. Keyed or unreadable Output values fall
  back to Colors too, still reported.
- Matted Colors imports as Display Matte (the same matte over the layer's
  own colours) instead of Preview, still reported as an approximation.

docs/aep-format.md 3.7 gets the sampled Output default, the tdsb 3
Selection Mode record and the real fresh Settings data (an empty text of
length 1 and its MurmurHash3, twice, not cry1 and zeros); docs/aep-import.md
the render comparison with After Effects (Matted RGBA matches; Matte Only
differs in alpha; Colors with no layer chosen shows another layer).
Tests: the exact fresh Settings bytes, tdsb 3 Selection Mode, borrowed
definitions, and an opt-in test against the sample once it is in the
corpus (aep/cryptomatte.aep, ignored until the corpus pin includes it).

* AEP import: write Cryptomatte's popup items in the test as After Effects does

The injected Cryptomatte definition wrote `pdnm` and `fnam` as `LIST`
chunks. After Effects writes them as plain chunks whose body is chunks
(`NESTED_IDS`), and the reader only looks there, so the tests never read
Output's item names: they passed through the fallback for a definition
with four items and no `pdnm`, which uses the plug-in's own list.

The harness now writes both as After Effects does. New tests check that
the injected definition reads back with its items and instance name,
that Output is mapped by the item the stored index names (items in
another order, case, an unknown item), and that the fallback without a
`pdnm` still works. With the old `LIST` form, or with the mapping
ignoring the items, the new tests fail.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* AEP import: check Cryptomatte's layer and selection against presets of our own

The After Effects 2026 sample 1400 now has two preset compositions that choose a layer and
pick one object (box_red on CryptoObject) or one material (mat_paint on CryptoMaterial).
CryptomatteData reads both as they are; the picked tokens are the EXR manifest's hashes,
which EffectCraft's selection grammar reads the same as the names.

- The u32 at 108 is MurmurHash3 of the selection text with its NUL (three texts).
- A unit test pins the 127-byte preset data; the sample test now covers all eight
  compositions with their layer and selection.
- Render check: EffectCraft's matte covers exactly the pixels After Effects draws as
  selected, edge coverage within 0.0002. docs/aep-format.md 3.7 and docs/aep-import.md.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* Cryptomatte import: report damaged Settings and Selection Mode records

Review follow-ups for #3109:
- CryptomatteData refuses a selection text without its NUL and checks the zero byte
  at 112 for an empty text too.
- A Settings record without its data, and a Selection Mode record whose value cannot
  be read, are reported as damaged data, not taken as the default.
- Layer Name is the effect's last parameter, so the earlier parameters keep their
  indexes and upgraded instances have the same order as new ones.
- A Cryptomatte layer name is matched as given before it is trimmed.

Took the slim module and re-applied this branch's Flowchart hunks where the code now lives: nudge() skips the Flowchart (menus/invoke.rs) and Enter is left to the Flowchart in handle_shortcuts (menus/shortcuts.rs).

Also removed a duplicate MACHINE_DEPENDENT const in tests/ui_accessibility_audit.rs that the two branches both added. The audit BASELINE still matches the measured findings.

Valentin KleinandClaude Sonnet 5.5 fdcc715829 Viewer exposure on the full float range of 32 bpc frames (#2937)
* Viewer exposure on the full float range of 32 bpc frames (#2797)

32 bpc viewer frames on the desktop are rendered without the HDR step (skip_hdr_step,
#2916) and kept as half floats in the RAM preview. A display pass on egui-wgpu's device
turns each frame into one RGBA8 texture with mips per viewer, in this order: decode,
exposure in linear light, Compand / Tone Map, encode, display colour, Show Channel,
rounding. Before, exposure was an 8-bit lookup applied after tone mapping, clamping and
the display conversion, so -2 EV could not bring values above 1.0 back.

- engine: viewer::DisplayPass describes the pass as data; its pixel() is the CPU
  fallback (no device) and the shader's reference. It replaces exposure_lut /
  display_transform. FrameEncoding records a frame's curve and the HDR step it still
  needs. 32 bpc snapshots are taken without the HDR step; snapshot_rgba8 applies it.
- ui-egui: FrameImage::CpuF16 (half crate, F16C at run time), byte accounting at 8 bytes
  a pixel in the cache and the prefetch estimates; display_gpu.rs + display_gpu.wgsl;
  main viewer, snapshot and passive viewers draw through the pass; the 8-bit image other
  panels read is made on demand with the HDR step; the Info panel shows float values.
- Half-float frames are not written to the disk cache yet.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* Viewer display pass: f16 disk cache entries, window-device gating, review fixes

- Disk cache: half-float frame entries (format byte in the entry header, byte planes +
  LZ4); 8-bit entries keep format 0 and stay valid. 32 bpc viewer frames are written and
  read again, and the timeline's disk bar sees them. A damaged half-float entry is
  deleted.
- The display pass runs on the window's egui-wgpu device, with or without the GPU
  compositor (still building, failed, GL fallback). Its pipelines are made inside error
  scopes; a backend that rejects them gets the CPU pass instead of a blank viewer.
- A new LUT of the same size (another ICC profile, Preserve RGB, another display) runs
  the pass again.
- f32 to f16: one pass per L1-sized block, the NaN / infinity fix-up on the bits, no
  fill of the buffer (4K: 4.7 ms, as the 8-bit conversion).
- Mips of odd-sized levels include the last column / row; the snapshot's half floats
  and texture go with the snapshot; no placeholder texture ids; u64 size checks.
- Tests: LUT profiles and negative values against the shader, Bake reruns, the passive
  viewer's colour, f16 disk round trips; exact comparisons allow 1 LSB on software
  rasterizers. Docs: the display pass and the f16 disk entries in architecture.md.

* Viewer f16 disk-cache test: temp dir removed on failure too, wait for the queued disk write

Review points: the test's directory was only removed by its last statement

* Masks: set the corner roundness of a Rounded Rectangle mask (#3067)

layer.addMask takes a roundness (corner radius in px) for shape rounded, and the new
mask.setRoundness changes it afterwards on a rectangular mask.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* Mask roundness: refuse ellipses, keep feather points and key correspondence

mask.setRoundness accepted any closed path whose vertices lie on its bounding
box, so an ellipse was replaced by a rectangle. It now accepts only a plain
rectangle (four corner vertices, straight sides) or a rounded one (eight
vertices, straight sides alternating with circular corners).

The rebuilt path keeps the old start vertex and direction, and its feather
points, so an animated path's other keys and the feather points still line
up. A change between square and rounded corners changes the vertex count; it
is refused when the path is keyed or has feather points instead of leaving
keys with different counts or dropping the points.

and Auto-Orient along the path adds a rotation the shift does not account for;
both would make the layer jump, so they are skipped like 3D layers.

* Viewer: Alt-drag duplicates the dragged layers (#2968)

Alt/Option-drag of the selected layers in the Composition viewer duplicates them and drags
the copies; the copy and the drag are one undo step. edit.duplicate takes a merge key for it.

* Alt-drag: duplicate from a 3D gizmo arrow, no double move of a selected child

Alt-dragging a gizmo arrow moved the original; it now duplicates and moves the
copy along the axis. A selected layer whose parent is dragged too follows the
parent, so its own Position no longer gets the drag a second time (with or
without Alt).

* AEP import: the report names the After Effects version of the file (#3115)

svap holds the version of the After Effects that wrote a project, head
bytes 4 to 7 the version the file is written for; Save a Copy As 25.x /
24.x of After Effects 2026 keeps svap and writes the older version into
head. AeVersion decodes the packed word (26.2.1x2), AepFile gains
file_version, saved_by_version and head_revision, and ImportReport gains
aeVersion (fileVersion, savedBy, tested; "unknown" when the file does not
say). A version outside 24 to 26 is imported as usual and gets a
limitation line, not a loss.

The 12 corpus families saved as 2026, 25.x and 24.x copies import to the
same project and report; docs/aep-format.md lists what the copies change
in the container. The fixture tests are ignored until the corpus holds
the files.

* AEP import: map HDR Highlight Compression, Echo, Linear Wipe, Offset and Color Stabilizer

The importer reported these five effects as lost. They now become
EffectCraft's effects of the same name with every parameter After Effects
stores (ranges, defaults and popup items from our own After Effects 2026
project, documented in docs/aep-format.md 3.7):

- ADBE HDR ToneMap -> ec.utility.hdrcompression (Amount)
- ADBE Echo -> ec.time.echo (Echo Time, Number Of Echoes, Starting
  Intensity, Decay, Echo Operator by item name)
- ADBE Linear Wipe -> ec.transition.linearwipe
- ADBE Offset -> ec.distort.offset (Blend With Original is a stored 0..1
  fraction, a percentage here)
- ADBE Deflicker -> ec.color.colorstabilizer (fresh Stabilize default
  Levels, points, Sample Size)

A table row can name the range EffectCraft's effect works in
(ParamMap::limit): Echo values or keys beyond 255 echoes or a Decay of 1
are imported as stored and reported.

Tests build each effect into the committed synthetic.aep (fx_inject.rs,
which also checks its pard layout reads back). On the sample project the
effect losses go from 75 to 3 (the out-of-range Echo values).

vangel76andClaude Opus 5.5 e730da1435 AEP import: read effect values recorded in the default state (tdsb 3)
After Effects records some effect parameters as value records in the
default state (tdsb 3) that still hold the value it uses. A survey of 839
corpus and sample files finds 25 such effect records, all in Lumetri
Color (its hidden controls) and Cryptomatte (Selection Mode on); every one
differs from its pard default and reads back in After Effects as recorded.
No effect record in the default state holds a value that does not count.

The general reader now takes them: EffectParam::recorded_value (the same
name, signature and body as in the Lumetri import) reads a record whatever
its state, value() and is_default() use it, and the importer's mapped
parameters read it, so such a record imports like a written one instead of
being reported as an unreadable value with the default used.
stored_value keeps to written records.

Layer, camera, light, shape and text properties in the default state all
hold After Effects' defaults or values with no effect on that layer
(the point light cone, a polygon's inner radius, a camera's opacity), so
their readers are unchanged. docs/aep-format.md records both findings.

Closes #3126

vangel76andClaude Opus 5.5 50cbbfe310 Cryptomatte: Matte Only puts the matte in RGB over alpha 1 (#3127)
With Matte Only on, Cryptomatte wrote the matte into all four channels:
a premultiplied white only as opaque as the matte. After Effects'
Cryptomatte plug-in shows Matte Only as an opaque grey picture, the
matte in RGB with alpha 1 (its Matte Only render of 2026-11-05 is opaque
black where nothing is selected). The CPU effect and the GPU shader now
both give (m, m, m, 1).

Projects saved before keep their render: a hidden Matte Only In Alpha
switch (off for new instances, presets and AEP imports) is turned on by
migrate::legacy_default when an older instance is upgraded on open, and
then keeps the matte in every channel on CPU and GPU.

Tests: the CPU path for a partly covered pixel, an unselected one and
outside the aux area, in both forms; the upgrade of a saved instance;
the GPU parity test over every display with Matte Only off, on and on
with the legacy switch; the host pick tests read whole pixels.

* plugins: install effect plug-in bundles (wasm + ScriptUI panels) in one go

* plugins: address review - keep listing errors, refuse replacing an installed plug-in

* plugins: report unreadable bundle entries when their metadata cannot be read

* plugins: surface partial install errors in the menu bar, cover the install flow with tests

* plugins: surface partial install errors for async dialog answers too

* plugins: show result errors as compact status text

* plugins: harden installs - confined automation, no panel overwrite, size cap, cleanup errors

* plugins: bound install reads from one handle, detect unreadable panels, clarify install docs

* plugins: drop an unneeded mut in the bounded read

* plugins: saturate the bounded read limit

* plugins: install into the session's Plug-ins folder, refuse hidden single installs and case-variant panels

- Install .wasm files into Session::plugins_dir() (the folder the Plug-in Library
  from #2524 uses), not a path rebuilt from the settings folder; the host tests
  now point both at their temp folder so they never touch the real settings.
- A single install of a hidden file (".x.wasm") was skipped and reported as a
  success that installed nothing: it is now an error.
- Installed names must be bare file names (and not Windows device names on
  Windows), as file.installScript requires, so every installed panel is listed
  and can be uninstalled.
- A panel whose name differs from an installed one only in case replaced it on
  Windows and macOS: compare ignoring case and check the file on disk too.
- The loaded plug-in's source is the installed copy, not the file it came from.
- Document the `bundle` menu parameter, so checked execution accepts it.

611a282bea Plug-ins: external effect helpers (safe, out-of-process native effects) + plug-in API 2 (#889)
* Plug-ins: API 2 (PluginHost, padding, layer_span)

Split out of the OpenFX work so it can be reviewed on its own. Additive; the WebAssembly ABI
stays at 1.

- point3 / layer / text / hidden parameters, integer sliders, parameter groups.
- EffectPlugin::padding (transparent pixels around the buffer, at most 4096 per side).
- EffectPlugin::render_v2 with a PluginHost: the input at other times, other layers, parameters
  at other times, frame rate, per-instance key, the layer's source range.
- EffectEnv::layer_span from the renderer; MAX_PLUGINS 1024.
- plugin_error: a plug-in effect's last render error, for the UI.

Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01KxacwTpUwqyfpcLgKW8yjS

* Plug-ins: external effect helpers (crates/helper-host)

Native plug-in formats run in separate helper programs, never in EffectCraft's process
(docs/adr/0001-external-effect-helpers.md). New safe-Rust crate effectcraft-helper-host (L3,
native only, unsafe forbidden): it finds helper programs, starts each as a child process and
registers its effects through plug-in API 2, so the UI and command surface need nothing new.

- Protocol v1 (docs/external-helpers.md): JSON lines over stdin / stdout (helper replies are
  prefixed so plug-in chatter is ignored); pixels go through a frame exchange file (/dev/shm on
  Linux), never through the pipe. Render-time callbacks for the input at other times, other layers
  and parameters at other times, with nested renders through the same helper.
- A helper that exits, hangs past its timeout or breaks the protocol is stopped. The render fails
  with a message, the frame is left as it was, and the helper restarts for the next render. An
  effect that stops its helper 3 times is turned off (helper_blocklist.txt).
- Opt-in: nothing starts helpers unless the user asks (Effect > Scan for Effect Helpers), or opts
  in to starting them at launch with EFFECTCRAFT_HELPERS=1, an environment variable, so writing
  to the settings folder alone can't run code. effect.helpers.scan / load are refused for
  confined agent sessions (confine.rs), like file.executeFile.
- Discovery: helpers/ next to the app (Contents/Helpers on macOS), helpers/ in the settings
  folder, EFFECTCRAFT_HELPER_PATH.
- Commands effect.helpers.list / scan / load; Effect menu entries (translated); the last render
  error of an effect shows as a warning sign after its name in Effect Controls.
- serve(): the helper side for Rust helpers. tests/it/main.rs runs the whole protocol (render,
  padding, callbacks, nesting, threads, crash, restart, block list, hang) against a fake helper,
  with nothing to install.

Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01KxacwTpUwqyfpcLgKW8yjS

* Effect helpers: address review (start failures, frame file mode, nextest listing)

- A helper that can't start (not installed any more, restarting too often, no frame exchange
  file) is reported but no longer charged to the effect being rendered: it is Failure::Refused,
  not Failure::Broken, so it never counts toward turning that effect off. New check in
  tests/it: once the helper is out of restarts, renders of an effect fail without blocking it
  (fails without the fix: the effect was turned off after 3 such renders).
- The frame exchange file is created owner-only (0o600) on Unix: it holds the user's frames and
  /dev/shm is shared. Asserted in the frames unit test.
- tests/it (harness = false) speaks the libtest listing protocol cargo-nextest uses:
  `--list --format terse` prints `helper_protocol: test` (nothing with `--ignored`), and
  `helper_protocol --exact` runs the checks.

* Effect helpers: bound writes to a helper, drain stderr, keep callbacks in step

- Writes to a helper go through a writer thread with the request timeout: a
  helper that stops reading its stdin (hung with a large callback answer or
  render request pending) no longer blocks the render thread forever while
  holding the helper.
- stderr is drained as bytes (lossy, in 64 KiB pieces) to the end: output that
  isn't UTF-8 stopped the reader, closing the pipe under the helper (EPIPE /
  SIGPIPE on its next write); lines were unbounded.
- Callback images that can't be written are answered with `null` instead of
  failing the render while the helper waits (which left the protocol out of
  step); a frame that can't be written before the request is sent is not
  charged to the effect.
- Mid-render calls use the render's own process: no respawn or heartbeat ping
  while the helper is waiting for an answer.
- Waiting for a busy helper is bounded (load timeout) instead of forever;
  status() no longer blocks on a running render.
- Reap the child when start-up fails after spawning; cap the block list read.
- Scripts start helpers only with Allow Scripts to Write Files and Access
  Network on (they run native code), as for File.execute().
- helper-host declares the workspace's no-panic crate lints; the desktop
  main() keeps its doc comment.

* Effect helpers: rustfmt the fake provider, build the test session in its initializer (clippy)

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* Plug-in Library: offer WebAssembly API 1 releases only; a helper already stopped mid-render isn't charged again

- WasmPlugin loads only modules at the WebAssembly ABI version, which stays 1 while
  PLUGIN_API_VERSION is 2: share it as effects::plugin::WASM_API_VERSION and have the
  library's compatibility check use it, so it never installs an API 2 release that
  can't load.
- with_running: a process that is already gone was stopped by what broke it (a nested
  render, charged there), so this render fails without charging its own effect.

* frames: plug-in effects count as reading other frames (plug-in API 2)

With main's narrowed frame invalidation (#2795), an edit inside a precomp under an
effect that reads its layer at other times must reach the layer's whole span.
Plug-in API 2 gives every plug-in effect the input at other times, so any effect
outside ec. counts.

4e8398f8ca G8: Plug-in Library: install, preview and update community WebAssembly effects (#2524)
* G8: plug-in library

Community Plug-in Library for WebAssembly effect plug-ins (#376): one
reviewed catalog (index.json), install / update / remove from Settings >
Plug-in Library (also Effect > Plug-in Library...), library.* commands,
start-up loading of installed packages with SHA-256 checks. Downloads go
through the system curl (https, GitHub hosts), as trained models do.

Preview before installing (library.preview): the release is downloaded,
checked like an install, and rendered in the sandbox on a built-in sample
frame at default settings (2 s at 12 fps) with a Before/After split, plus
the effect's parameters, "Open on GitHub" and an optional author video
link (catalog field preview.video). Authors need to do nothing for it.

Hardening: a module that fails to load leaves the installed copy alone,
Update All updates every package in one job, minApp also applies to an
explicit version, curl ignores ~/.curlrc and URL globbing, unique temp
files, percent-decoded file URLs. Plug-in effect slots grow from 64 to
256 with a clearer overflow error.

Docs: plugins.md "Plug-in Library", publishing-plugins.md (author guide
from zero to listed), gaps.md; examples/plugin-catalog is the starting
content of the catalog repository (schema, validation workflow).

* G8: check an update before replacing a loaded package; Update All past failures

- An update to a package that is already loaded is now compiled and its manifest checked
  (through the previewer, without registering it) before the new file is written and the old
  version's folder deleted. Before, a release with the right SHA-256 that didn't load replaced
  the working version and failed at the next start.
- Package ids that differ only in case, or end in a dot, would share one folder on Windows and
  macOS: the catalog keeps the first of them, and ids can't end in a dot (schema too).
- Update All: a package that can't be picked or installed no longer stops the others; the
  result names what was updated and what wasn't.
- Downloads: at most 5 redirects, and one that ends off GitHub's hosts is refused, as the module
  docs say.
- A job that panics no longer leaves the library busy; poisoned status locks are used, not
  dropped.

gmrmad1andFredApps 389894e69b gpu: run Content-Aware Fill's PatchMatch and flow on the GPU (#1856)
* gpu: run Content-Aware Fill's PatchMatch on the device

Content-Aware Fill's synthesis is the stage that makes the tool slow: at
1920×1080 with a 300×200 hole, PatchMatch costs ≈ 1.1 s per frame on the CPU,
and it is what Object, Surface and every refining frame spend their time in.

Add a `FillBackend` trait to `effectcraft-raster` whose stages (the membrane
solve, the flow fields, PatchMatch) default to the CPU reference, and
`Accelerator::inpaint()` on the compositor, which is how the engine asks for a
device backend. `effectcraft_gpu::inpaint` implements PatchMatch: the
multi-scale pyramid, the EM rounds, the propagation (a two-pass checkerboard
instead of the CPU's scan order), the random search, the SSD, the
histogram-based σ² and the weighted vote, as compute kernels in
`shaders/inpaint.wgsl`.

The fill's frames are read back to the CPU before it runs (analyses composite
on the CPU by design), so the backend is about the fill's own work; the
orchestration, the flow-guided propagation and the per-frame flow control stay
on the CPU. Only the hole's bounds cross back to the CPU, which is what makes
the offload pay.

Measured on an Intel Arc (MTL) iGPU, 1920×1080, 300×200 hole:

  CPU 1087 ms   GPU 397 ms   (2.7×, 41.0 dB PSNR against the CPU's synthesis)

The membrane (harmonic) solve deliberately stays on the CPU: the same
measurement has it at ≈ 90 ms on the device against ≈ 55 ms on the CPU,
because a fill's full-frame data movement (upload, the known pyramid, a copy)
does not shrink with the hole, while the relaxation does. The device takes only
the stage where its parallel search pays; `membrane_tex` still runs on the
device inside PatchMatch, where it is the coarsest level's start and never
crosses back.

Closes #1839.

* gpu: fix the fill's vote histogram and run its flow on the device

Review follow-ups on the Content-Aware Fill GPU port, plus the fill's flow.

Fixes:

* imp_hist kept about one sample in 256: each of the 256 threads scanned a
  strided subset of the pixels and retained only those whose bin selected it,
  so the vote's sigma² came from a sample correlated with the pixel index (and
  a small hole usually fell back to 1.0, making the weights near-uniform). One
  workgroup now accumulates the whole population through shared atomic bins,
  with a test that pins the sample count.
* imp_pm_prop and imp_pm_rand were dispatched over grow(near, 1) but with
  near's origin, so the ring's left column and top row were never written
  (NaN under test, stale pooled data in production) while a strip past it was.
  `over` now derives the shader's origin from the box it sizes the dispatch
  from, so a dispatch's region and its origin can no longer disagree.
* Gpu::inpaint() requires its kernels to have built. Otherwise every stage
  paid an upload and a failed dispatch to fall back to the CPU, while the fill
  still reported the GPU path.
* imp_rnd's XOR chain parenthesises its multiplicative terms: WGSL's grammar
  makes each XOR operand a unary expression, so `a * b ^ c * d` is rejected
  by spec-compliant parsers (naga accepts it).
* FillBackend documents that its stages may be called concurrently.
* The coarsest membrane's sweep count (64, against the CPU's 200) is now
  justified: matching 200 measured ~6% slower over the fill with no change in
  the result.

And the flow: Gpu::flow runs block_flow's coarse-to-fine search, sub-pixel fit
and vector median on the device. The luma is the CPU's (flow::luma_pair), so
the field matches block_flow's to a float rounding and the propagation sees
the same motion; the hole completion stays on the CPU with the membrane. A
four-frame 1920x1080 fill goes from 1.27x to 1.42x against the CPU, and the
device path is covered for holes from 16x16 to 300x200.

* gpu: keep the fill vote's histogram range on HDR input

imp_hist binned every distance at a fixed 256 bins per unit and clamped to
1023, so the vote's sigma2 topped out at 3.998. A 32-bpc frame's channels can
exceed 1, and masked_frame forwards them unclamped: a patch distance of 1600
then reported sigma2 ~ 4, exp(-1600/(2*sigma2)) rounded to zero in f32, and
imp_pm_vote kept the prior image instead of synthesising.

The histogram now reports the largest finite distance it saw (atomicMax on the
float bits, carried in bin 0's unused .g channel). SDR input keeps the fixed
0..4 range with identical bins; HDR input is re-binned over the observed range
and percentile() maps the bin centre back through it. Nothing clamps the input.

Also group over/sweeps/pm_level's arguments into small structs: the workspace
denies too_many_arguments and the lint policy (#2496) does not allow new
#[allow]s. No behaviour change on those paths.

* engine: don't report Edge Blend fills as device fills

Edge Blend calls only the membrane, which the GPU backend leaves to the CPU
reference, so run_plan's "Filling (GPU)" status was wrong for it whenever a
backend was present. Object and Surface still run the flow and PatchMatch on
the device and keep the label.

CodeRabbit's #1856 finding.

* gpu: run the fill's device stages inside error scopes

An allocation or validation failure inside patch_image/flow_image left an
invalid texture whose later use raised an uncaptured error, retiring the
shared compositor instead of falling back to the CPU for that frame. Wrap both
stages in Gpu::within_memory, whose scopes are native thread-local, so the
fill's rayon workers do not share them.

- A watch-folder render gives the host session's set back after its own
  project replaced it on the shared footage source.
- Guard gpu fx_depth::IDS against reads_aux drifting apart.
- Count picture and channel decodes per thread instead of reading the
  shared channel cache, so parallel tests can't make the checks flaky.
- The engine test fails when no set was ever sent.
- Docs: Media Replacement items are learned at their first frame.

vangel76andClaude Opus 5.5 5b31b96cde perf(media): tell the media pool which EXR footage effects read (#474)
The pool learned that an effect reads a footage item's channels only at the
first aux() call, so the first frame was decoded twice (picture, then in
full), and the hint was never cleared after the effect was removed.

The session now gives the footage source the whole set of files read by
enabled 3D Channel effects (FootageSource::set_aux_footage) with every
project change (Session::bump: edits, undo, redo, history jumps, rollbacks,
project open), sending it only when it changed. The pool keeps that set and,
as a safety net, what aux() learns; a new set drops what was learned.

vangel76andClaude Opus 5.5 eedd64906c #474: keep files in use in the channel cache, cap plane memory, fall back on a missing cache entry
Review follow-ups:
- Files in use are never dropped from the channel cache: planes an effect
  holds, the files of the last 4 pictures made of their planes until their
  effects ask for the channels, and decodes in progress, which now count
  the planes they will allocate (from the header) against the budget. With
  4 frames at once over a budget of one file, each file decodes once (test).
- A decode that panics removes its entry instead of leaving it decoding.
- One decode allocates at most 8 GiB of planes (512 MiB on 32-bit and
  wasm); a header asking for more is refused with the reason.
- A shared picture whose file has no cached channels (a failed read, a
  broken part it doesn't use) is decoded from its own channels.
- Comment why waiting on a decode may block a rayon worker; drop the
  subsampling check and test (the exr crate refuses subsampled files).
- Docs: the cache is a soft bound; a single-part file still decompresses
  every channel; the first frame and the image crate's route decode twice.

vangel76andClaude Opus 5.5 8add8ac7b4 #474: decode a multi-layer EXR once per frame, and only its picture when nothing else reads it
- The channel cache decodes a file once however many callers ask for it at
  the same time (the others wait for that decode), and is bounded by the
  bytes of its planes (1 GiB, least recently used out first, a file counting
  as used when its decode finishes, the newest file always kept) instead of
  four files of any size.
- Once an effect has read a footage item's channels, its pictures are made
  of the cached planes, also for files with an unnamed RGB layer (bit for
  bit what the image crate shows, which still decodes the files the planes
  can't stand in for); footage alone decodes only its picture's channels
  (a multi-layer file's were all decoded and cached for every frame).
- Channels are decoded straight into their display-window planes, and the
  picture is converted from the planes without two interleaved copies.

Measured on a 30-frame 2560x1440 sequence of 32 channels (DWAA), one frame
at a time: footage alone 0.185 -> 0.073 s per frame and 4.4 -> 1.8 GB peak;
with an unnamed RGB layer plus Cryptomatte 0.244 -> 0.159 s; multi-part
plus EXtractoR 0.194 -> 0.127 s.

vangel76andClaude Opus 5.5 406c9a9648 EXR export: raw alpha for Alpha-only files, skip_hdr_step name, more tests
- Rename RenderOpts::scene_output to skip_hdr_step (Pipe::without_hdr_step):
  the consumer decodes with Pipe::output_linear or applies the step itself.
- Alpha-only EXRs hold the alpha as it is in every output space (it is
  coverage, not encoded colour; it used to be sRGB-decoded).
- Tests: a half-opacity layer over a coloured background (premultiplied and
  RGB-over-background paths, golden hashes taken before the change), Rec.
  2100 PQ and HLG EXR outputs, raw alpha, and a visible skip of the GPU test
  without an adapter.
- docs/architecture.md: the Working Gamma curve for unmanaged projects, and
  no HDR step for unmanaged projects or PQ / HLG outputs.

vangel76andClaude Opus 5.5 51d7e530a0 Follow-up to #2911: B44 at float is labelled uncompressed, half holds over-range samples
B44 and B44A pack only half floats, so at 32-bit float the menu and the
render log say the samples stay uncompressed. Half-float frames hold samples
above 65 504 at that limit instead of writing infinity. The EXR parameters
move into their own helper; exr_out is public for other writers.

vangel76andClaude Opus 5.5 684e05859f EXR export: no compand / tone mapping, and the output space's own curve
OpenEXR renders (Render Queue sequences and Save Frame As ProEXR) received
the frame after Project Settings > HDR, so Compand and Tone Map (the default
of every OCIO project) compressed highlights and changed values below 1.0
before the writer decoded them, always with the sRGB curve.

- RenderOpts::scene_output: the top-level comp converts to the output space
  without the HDR step (CPU and GPU walks, via Renderer::output_pipe).
- Pipe::output_linear: the writers decode with the output space's curve
  (the Working Gamma's when unmanaged) instead of a fixed sRGB curve.
- Render Queue EXR jobs and ProEXR set the flag; PSD layers, 8-bit stills,
  movies and the viewer keep the HDR step. The flag is part of the viewer
  frame and disk cache keys (opts_hash).

Golden hashes, taken before the change, pin PNG/TIFF/Targa bytes for
8/16/32 bpc x Clip/Compand/ToneMap, Clip-mode EXR samples with an sRGB
output, and the layered PSD bytes.
