+//! Live-effect plug-ins while a document opens: the plug-in effects drawn for its first view share
+//! a time budget of [`OPENING_BUDGET_MS`], and a stage that is not run for want of time, or that
+//! gives no result, is deferred: it draws its input art and is listed with the reason
+//! ([`Deferrals::list`]) until it runs again.
+//!
+//! One [`Deferrals`] belongs to each open document. Drawing that document on screen runs inside
+//! [`Deferrals::view`], which applies its budget and its deferred stages to the plug-in effects
+//! evaluated on that thread ([`crate::effect`]):
+//!
+//! - until [`Deferrals::first_view_done`], every run takes the lesser of its per-call limit and
+//!   what is left of the budget, no run starts once the budget is spent, and a result that comes
+//!   back after the budget ran out is not used;
+//! - afterwards a deferred stage is not run again while its input and parameters stay the same; a
+//!   stage whose input or parameters changed runs under the per-call limit;
+//! - [`Deferrals::refresh`] runs deferred stages again with a fresh budget.
+//!
+//! Work outside a view (exports, commands, drawing without a screen) runs every stage under the
+//! per-call limit. When such a run gives a result for a stage some document has deferred,
+//! [`revision`] changes, so that drawings made with the deferred stage are drawn again.

 | Date | Change | Summary |
 |---|---|---|
 | 2026-11-11 | minor | `.ai` save (PDF-compatible editing copy and legacy) and `.ai`/EPS open: a layer's `Lb` colour index follows the file's numbering, where Magenta, Cyan and Yellow are 4, 5 and 6 and `LAYER_COLORS` has Yellow, Magenta and Cyan; Yellow, Magenta and Cyan layers no longer come out as Magenta, Cyan and Yellow, and the other 24 presets are unchanged (#6502, from the index and RGB pairs in users' files). `LAYER_COLORS` keeps its order, so `.vectorcraft` files and the Layers panel don't change. Scores and estimates unchanged. |
+| 2026-11-11 | minor | `.ai` save: stroked type writes its stroke's cap, join and miter limit into the text document (keys 61, 62 and 64, as `.ai` import reads them since #6500), so they come back when the file opens again and no longer count among the attributes of type left out; a run without a stroke doesn't count them either, as they draw nothing. Tests `ai_editing::tests::type_comes_back_as_type`, `an_unstroked_run_with_a_stroke_style_loses_nothing` (follow-up to #6472) |
 | 2026-11-11 | minor | `.ai` and EPS import, PDF import, SVG export and `.ai` save: type with a Horizontal Scale other than 100% and tracking or manual kerning is spaced as a `.ai`'s own page spaces it. Layout now measures tracking and manual kerning in thousandths of the em as the scale draws it (see type-parity.md, same date); they were added at the full em, so such type drifted from the page letter by letter. A `.ai`'s page writes that type's character spacing as the tracking itself in a text space as wide as the scale, which PDF scales by it (ISO 32000-1 §9.4.4). In 224 users' files (used locally, never committed), 93 render differently. Of the 25 whose render moved by more than 1% of its pixels against the page, 23 came closer. The note on the type differing from the page shows a smaller share in 5 files (11.0% to 4.4% at most) and a larger one in 2 (by 0.2 to 0.3 points). 9 more envelopes of type open live (113 to 122 of 203, none fewer in any file), and no file switched between its layers and its PDF part. PDF import: the tracking of horizontally scaled type is the file's `Tc` in thousandths of its size (it was that times the scale), the glyphs where they were (test `tests::text_placement::character_spacing_in_horizontally_scaled_type_is_the_files_tc`). SVG export writes the letter spacing in thousandths of the font size it writes (the vertical scale), so type scaled uniformly keeps its spacing in a viewer (test `text_layout::spacing_in_uniformly_scaled_type_takes_the_scale`); tracked type scaled horizontally alone still differs a little there, as before. A `.ai` saved here writes the same values as before; VectorCraft now lays them out as the file's own PDF part draws them. Scores and estimates unchanged. |
 | 2026-11-11 | minor | `.ai` and EPS import: stroked type in an envelope with Distort Appearance is tried mapped from its glyphs grown by as far as its strokes paint along a side (half the weight of a centred stroke), without what miter joins add at corners, for a stroke on its appearance or on a group round it as well as its characters'; it was mapped from its bounds with strokes, which reach as far as a miter join may at a corner. Tests `ai::envelope::tests::stroked_type_is_tried_mapped_from_its_glyphs_grown_by_half_its_stroke`, `type_with_a_character_stroke_is_tried_mapped_from_its_bounds_with_strokes`, `a_stroke_on_a_group_of_type_grows_the_box_by_half_its_weight` (part of #3179) |
 | 2026-11-11 | minor | `.ai` and EPS import: a warp of type (an envelope made with a warp around type) whose own warp, VectorCraft's, doesn't draw as its drawn art is tried again as a mesh envelope on the warp grid the file saves, with the same drawn-art check, budget and page comparison as #6421: where it passes, the type is editable and keeps the file's shape, and the warp's settings (style, bend) are lost. A second try is only made while more checks are left than there are envelopes of type and warped text objects still to come. Type with strokes in an envelope with Distort Appearance on is also tried mapped from its box with strokes, where the size the file saves for it doesn't already give that box (a rule chosen by measuring real files). An envelope's grid (warp, mesh or top object) now reads its way round from all its rows and columns, not its first row alone: a mesh bent far round (its end columns leaning more than halfway over) reads the way it runs, not turned a quarter round, and a grid symmetric about its middle reads the same wherever it is on the page. Tests `tests_native::a_warp_of_type_opens_as_a_mesh_on_its_saved_grid_and_keeps_its_shape_when_its_text_changes`, `a_warp_of_stroked_type_maps_from_its_bounds_with_strokes_where_its_drawn_art_does`, `a_warp_of_type_without_a_saved_grid_keeps_its_drawn_art`, `a_warp_of_type_tried_again_leaves_the_next_envelope_its_check`, `ai::tests::a_mesh_envelope_bent_far_round_opens_the_way_it_runs`, `a_mesh_envelope_bent_halfway_round_opens_the_same_way_wherever_it_is` (part of #3179) |

+  returns `undefined`.
+- `confirm(message[, noAsDflt, title])` shows the message with Yes and No. Yes is the default button, and No is the
+  default when `noAsDflt` is true. It returns `true` for Yes and `false` for No.
+- `prompt(message, preset[, title])` shows the message and a text field that starts with `preset`, with OK and
+  Cancel. It returns the field's text for OK, an empty string included, and `null` for Cancel.
+
+The message, the preset and a given title are read as `String(value)` gives them, and `errorIcon` and `noAsDflt` as
+`Boolean(value)` gives them. A title that is left out or `undefined` is Script Alert. A call without a message, or a
+`prompt` without a preset, throws a `TypeError`. A message or a prompt's preset longer than 16 KiB, or a title longer than
+256 bytes, throws a `RangeError` and opens no dialog. The dialog shows line feeds, carriage returns and the two
+together as line breaks, and other control characters as their Unicode Control Pictures. The title stays on one
+line, with line breaks shown as Control Pictures too.
+
+In the app, the run waits at the call until the person answers, and spends no instructions while it waits. Enter
+gives the default button's answer. Escape gives Cancel for a prompt, No for a confirm and Stop for an alert. Every
+dialog also has Stop, which ends the run as `script.stop` does and puts back every document. A dialog can open only
+from the script's own code: called inside a callback of a built-in function such as `Array.prototype.forEach`, a
+getter, a `toString` conversion or a file `$.evalFile` runs, it throws an `Error`. The code of an `#include` file
+is part of the script's own code, and its dialogs open as the script's do. Quitting while a dialog waits asks whether to stop the
+script, and Cancel shows the dialog again with the text typed so far. In the app, `ui.dialog.confirm` answers the
+open dialog (kind `scriptDialog`) with its `answer` field (`ok`, `yes`, `no`, `cancel` or `stop`), or with the
+default button's answer when `answer` is left out. A prompt's `value` longer than 16 KiB is an error, and the
+dialog stays open.
+
+A run with nobody to ask takes its answers from `answers`, a list of `{kind: "alert", value: "ok"}`, `{kind:
+"confirm", value: true}` or `{kind: "confirm", value: false}`, and `{kind: "prompt", value: text}` or `{kind:
+"prompt", value: null}` for Cancel. Each dialog takes the next answer in order, callbacks of built-in functions
+included. The run ends with an error that the script cannot catch, and every document goes back, when no answer is
+left, when the next answer is for another kind of dialog, or when the script ends with answers it did not use.
+`script.run` refuses a list that is malformed, longer than 10,000 answers or larger than 1 MiB before the run starts,
+and refuses any answers for a run in the app, where the person answers. An omitted `answers`, an empty list and an

 - **Smooth widths between width points (#5714):** a variable-width stroke changes width along a smooth curve from one width point to the next, where it used to run in a straight line and turn a corner at each point. The public description is that the path "gradually gets wider or narrower from one point to the next" in "a flowing, continuous curve", and that stacked points make a sharp break ([Peachpit, Expressive Strokes](https://www.peachpit.com/articles/article.aspx?p=2979069)); the exact curve is not documented, so each side follows a monotone cubic (Fritsch–Carlson): no kink at a point, flat where a point is wider or narrower than both neighbours, never past the points either side, points on one line kept on it. The outline samples straight runs between width points closely enough to follow the curve to the drawing tolerance (at most 64 samples per span and 4,096 per piece). Presets with a middle point (Lens, Pinch, Teardrop, Wave) look softer; two-point tapers are unchanged. Tests: `appearance::profile::tests::{widths_run_smoothly_through_width_points, widths_never_pass_the_points_either_side, a_step_ends_the_curve_on_each_side, widest_covers_every_width_along_the_profile}`, `stroke::width::tests::{a_straight_run_follows_the_curve_between_width_points, samples_between_width_points_are_capped}`.
 - **Stroke gradients where a variable-width stroke meets itself (#5960):** with a gradient along or across a stroke that has a width profile, where the stroke crosses itself the later part paints over the earlier one only where the two overlap, and a narrow part running close beside a wide one leaves its edge alone. Each slice of the gradient reaches as far as the stroke is wide where it sits (for a dashed stroke, as wide as it gets within the reach of a cap or dot, found in one pass along the path, so a densely flattened path costs no more per point), where it used to reach as far as the stroke is wide anywhere and paint a square of its colour over the wider part. Strokes without a profile are unchanged. Tests: `stroke::tests_gradient::a_narrow_pass_over_a_wide_one_paints_only_where_they_overlap`, `a_narrow_pass_beside_a_wide_one_leaves_its_edge_alone`, `a_densely_flattened_dashed_pass_beside_a_wide_one_leaves_its_edge_alone` and `widest_ahead_is_the_widest_within_the_window`, with the existing coverage tests (joins, caps, arrowheads, profiles, dashes, aligned strokes).
 - **Width strokes zoomed out (#995):** a stroke with a width profile keeps its shape while the view zooms out. The canvas keeps a hairline visible (at least half a device pixel); for a profiled stroke it is the profile's widest point that gets that minimum, not the weight, so a 1 pt stroke with a 6x width point is no longer drawn twice as thick at 25% zoom than at 100%. Plain strokes are unchanged. Test: `render::tests::widthzoom`.
+- **Ruler double-click (#5239):** a double-click (both clicks on that ruler) on the top ruler adds a vertical guide at the pointer's x and one on the left ruler a horizontal guide at its y (swapped in a view turned 90°, where the rulers read the other document axis; the nearer axis in between), through `guide.add` in one undo step; the guide is not snapped, is shown even when guides were hidden, and is an artboard guide with the Artboard tool, as a drag from a ruler makes one. The [public page on rulers](https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/desktop/measure-and-align/grids-and-guides/use-rulers.html) doesn't describe the gesture, so it follows the request in #5239. egui frame tests cover both rulers, a lone click, Undo, a canvas click before a ruler click, and rotated views.
 - **Rulers (#1212):** drag the intersection to preview and set a document zero point, or double-click it to reset to the active artboard's top-left. Transform, Properties and Control X/Y fields measure from it and convert entered positions back to absolute command coordinates. The origin survives every native format version and compression; geometry, guides and patterns stay in place. Public reference: [Use rulers](https://helpx.adobe.com/ca/illustrator/desktop/measure-and-align/grids-and-guides/use-rulers.html).

A new document has artboard rulers: the rulers and the Transform, Properties, Control and Info X/Y count from the active artboard's top-left corner, or the zero point dragged out for that artboard, which moves with it; with global rulers one document zero point serves every artboard. Guide readouts and Shift ruler-tick snapping follow the same zero point. The mode is saved with the document; files from before it open with global rulers, as they measured. Regression tests: `engine/tests/it/ruler_origin.rs`, `ui-egui/src/tests/ruler_origin.rs`, `tools/src/rulerguide.rs`.

Each artboard has its own (`artboard.setProps`/`artboard.new` `showVideoSafeAreas`, `videoRulerPixelAspectRatio` 0.1–10, default 1), set in one undo step and written to the native format only when on or not 1, so other documents save byte for byte as before. The help page names the safe areas without numbers; our choice is [EBU R 95](https://tech.ebu.ch/docs/r/r095.pdf)'s (note 5): the canvas outlines the action-safe area 3.5% and the title-safe (graphics-safe) area 5% in from each edge, 1 point wide and turned with the view; exports and print leave them out. Show Video Rulers (`view.videoRulers`) shows the rulers counting the active artboard in pixels from its top-left corner, whatever the ruler origin: a pixel is as many points wide as the ratio and one point tall, so a 720 × 480 pt artboard at 0.9 reads 800 × 480. Hide Video Rulers returns them to the General unit; Shift ruler-tick snapping of new guides keeps the General unit.

An action recorded by an older version still plays from the Actions panel and the Batch dialog (`Session::replay`). `crates/engine/tests/it/param_keys.rs`.
   - MCP server with 25 tools (drawing, text, effects, Pathfinder, transforms, graphs, text wrap, export, screenshots, any command), attached to the running app or headless. Tool descriptions and replies agree with the engine: format lists come from its format table, `save_file` says it keeps the document's own format, `inspect_document` reports the paint type's characters show, and selection exports report the encoder's warnings. `--automation-read-root` / `--automation-write-root` (on `vectorcraft-cli mcp` and on `vectorcraft --control`) confine the files commands read and write to chosen folders, links followed, with the flags PhotoCraft takes (#832); each flag may be given more than once, a path inside any of its folders being allowed (#3546, `file_access::tests::several_roots_of_a_kind_each_grant_their_access`, `cli::mcp_automation_roots_take_several_folders`). A long export can be cancelled (`notifications/cancelled` stops it at the next page or group and writes nothing), reports page progress to a client that sent a progress token, and does not make other requests wait: engine-free ones answer at once, the rest are refused as busy after two seconds (#2165, #2171, #2172).
   - MCP protocol: five prompts (`prompts/list` / `prompts/get`: poster, icon set, recolour, trace-and-style, export set), `completion/complete` for prompt arguments and template variables read from the live catalogues (formats, effect ids, command ids, trace presets, swatch and object ids), four resource templates (`vectorcraft://object/{id}`, `//command/{id}`, `//effect/{id}`, `//swatch/{name}`) so an agent reads one thing instead of the whole document, and `logging/setLevel` with `notifications/message`. `window.panel` ids are case-insensitive (display labels work too), `vectorcraft://object/{id}` reads through `document.node {summary: true}` (the same reply bytes from one lookup instead of summarizing the whole document: a leaf read on a 2,000-object document drops from ~20 ms to ~0.06 ms), large containers slice with `document.node {depth?, childLimit?}` (truncated levels report `childCount`), `document.inspect` and the `inspect_document` tool slice the same way so a depth-0 read is the layer skeleton (~9.7 KB instead of ~2 MB on a 2,000-object document), `document.find` locates nodes by name/kind/text with ancestor paths, and the CLI sweeps the protocol surface over stdio against the compiled binary. `docs/mcp.md` has a Protocol section covering the capability table and what is deliberately absent (subscriptions, progress, cancellation, sampling, elicitation, Streamable HTTP — all of which need the transport to interleave reads).

   - The macOS menu bar is built from the in-window menus (one model, `native_menu`) and laid out as a Mac app's: the VectorCraft menu holds About, Settings ▸ (each Preferences page, General… ⌘K), Language ▸, Appearance ▸ (UI brightness), Services, Hide VectorCraft ⌃⌘H (⌘H stays Hide Edges), Hide Others, Show All and Quit; Window gains Minimize ⌃⌘M, Zoom and Bring All to Front, and Help the system's search field. Its key equivalents go back to egui as key presses, so user shortcuts, focused text fields and the Type tool's input method behave as in the window, and nothing fires twice; enabled, check marks and labels update in place. `--in-window-menus` or `VECTORCRAFT_IN_WINDOW_MENUS=1` keeps the menus in the window; `ui.inspect` reports `nativeMenuBar`.

   - **9-slice scaling** ([public source](https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/desktop/manage-objects/traces-mockups-symbols/maintain-proportions-while-scaling-symbols.html)): a scaled instance of a symbol with Enable Guides for 9-Slice Scaling on stays an instance and keeps the parts of its art outside the guides at their size. New guides sit a quarter of the symbol's width and height in from each edge ([reference](https://help.adobe.com/archive/en/illustrator/cs6/illustrator_reference.pdf), Use 9-slice scaling section); saved guides keep their values. The rest is VectorCraft's own rule: the corners keep both sizes, the top and bottom edges stretch in width, the left and right edges in height and the center in both; an instance smaller than its two outer cells on an axis shrinks them in proportion and leaves the center empty; the cells are sized along the symbol's axes before the instance's rotation, shear or reflection. A path with solid paint that crosses a guide is cut there and stays one path, its stroke at its weight with Scale Strokes & Effects on or off; type, images, live objects and gradient or pattern paint that cross a guide are drawn in each cell they reach, clipped to it, except those that draw symbol art (a nested instance, type with an inline graphic, a placed document, a brushed stroke, or a pattern whose tile draws one of these), which are placed by the cell their center is in; an object in one cell is placed by that cell and stays as it is. The canvas, bounds, the Eyedropper, Break Link to Symbol and the PDF, EPS, DXF, EMF/WMF and SVG exports place the art the same way; SVG writes such an instance as its placed art instead of a `<use>`, and DXF and WMF, which do not clip, cut every path that crosses a guide and place other such objects by the cell their center is in.

Each edit there changes every instance at once; the instances keep their own transforms and stay linked (Break Link to Symbol still expands one), and a dynamic symbol's instances keep their appearance changes to the objects the art still has. Escape, the isolation bar's back button, the Control bar's Exit Symbol Editing Mode and a double-click outside the art leave the mode (`symbol.exitEditing`); leaving without an edit adds no undo step. Saving leaves the editing layer out.

Opacity, blend and `null`, which takes a stored change back, are taken for every object. Tests: `crates/engine/src/tests/dynamic_symbols.rs`.

With Em Box, the default, the font size is the size of the em square; with Cap Height, x-Height or ICF Box, the characters are set at the em size at which the font's OS/2 cap height, its x height or the height of its ideographic character face equals the font size. With a font that has no such value, or one outside 0.1 to 2 em, the size measures the em box. SVG, PDF and legacy `.ai` export and the CSS Properties rules write the em size the characters are drawn at, and DXF export writes 0.7 times that em size as each TEXT entity's height (group 40, the height of its capitals).

The alternates come from the font's `GSUB` single and alternate substitutions of `aalt`, then `salt`, `ss01` to `ss20`, `swsh`, `cv01` to `cv99` and a few other alternate features, each glyph once. The text keeps the character, native files keep the choice with the face it was made in, and type set in another font or version draws the default glyph. The list uses the font of the character's text even when the panel browses another font, and the panel shows a note when the character has no alternates, its font is missing or no character is selected; these rules are VectorCraft's own.

     On the canvas, the renderer no longer draws the picture of the art below back as an image each time it copies the backdrop of a non-isolated group that blends: it keeps that picture and draws the art that follows over it. At 2880 × 1800, 50 translucent groups with Multiply members take 65 ms a frame instead of 299 ms on 8 threads (`vectorcraft-cli bench`), and the frames have the same pixels.
     Type inside a group, layer, symbol instance, blend or repeat keeps its opacity, blend mode, opacity mask, Opacity & Mask Define Knockout Shape, own effects, perspective and visibility when the effects on the container outline it. Hidden type with a geometry effect of its own is left out of exports.

   - **Several text styles at once:** in the Character Styles and Paragraph Styles panels, Shift-click highlights a range of styles and Ctrl/Cmd-click adds or removes one, without applying them; the panel menu's Select All Unused (`charStyle.unused`, `paraStyle.unused`) highlights the styles no type uses (in the layers, opacity masks, symbols, graph designs, pattern tiles and the art of brushes), never the Normal style; Delete, the button or the menu item, deletes every highlighted style but Normal in one undo step (`charStyle.delete {names}`, `paraStyle.delete {names}`). The menu's Duplicate copies every highlighted style in one undo step and highlights the copies. A highlighted row dragged onto Create New Style or Delete carries every highlighted style: dropped on Create New Style it copies them all and highlights the copies, and dropped on Delete it deletes them all but Normal and clears the highlight; a row from outside the highlight carries only its own style.

 - **Filter plug-ins call commands (G17, #2186):** a filter at plug-in API level 2 with the `commands` permission names the commands it may run in its manifest's `commandAllowlist` and runs them with `env.vc_call`, reading each result with `env.vc_call_result`. Each call sees what the calls before it changed; the calls and the filter's output are one undo step, and a run that fails, is canceled or makes a call that fails leaves every document, its selection and its history as they were. Commands that read or write files, use the clipboard, change preferences or the view, run scripts, actions or plug-ins, switch documents or undo are never called, and a manifest that lists one is refused when the module is installed. The install dialog lists the allowed commands. A run makes at most 1,000 calls, and each call costs 10,000 instructions of its budget. Regressions: `crates/plugins/tests/call.rs`, `crates/engine/tests/plugin_call.rs`, `crates/engine/src/cmd/plugin_call.rs`. Scores and hours unchanged.
 - **Plug-in progress, Cancel and log lines (G17):** at plug-in API level 2 a plug-in with the `progress` permission imports `env.vc_progress`, `env.vc_cancelled` and `env.vc_log`. A heavy filter's and an export's progress windows show its progress as a percentage bar, their Cancel reaches it through `vc_cancelled`, and its log lines go to the app's log with its id, capped per line and per run. Installing checks every import and names the one it refuses.

Scores and hours unchanged.
 - **Live-effect plug-ins paint their output (G17, #121):** a live effect whose manifest has `"api": 2` and `"paintOutput": true` returns pieces, each drawn by itself in order with fills and strokes of its own in the filter's paint forms (a piece without them keeps the object's; an empty list paints none; an effect on a fill returns only fills, one on a stroke only strokes). The whole result is checked first: limits, numbers in range with nothing clamped, known keys only, and the swatches and patterns it names in the document; one fault draws that step of the stack unchanged, keeps the effect record and puts the plug-in's name and the field in `plugin.info`'s `lastError`. The pieces are drawn, measured and exported to PDF and SVG from the appearance stack without changing the document, and Expand Appearance writes them as ordinary paths in one undo step. Effects without the key behave as before.

+- **Live-effect plug-ins while a document opens (G17):** the live-effect plug-in runs of a document's first view on screen share a 2,000 ms budget (VectorCraft's own value). A stage left out for time, or one that times out, fails, has no plug-in or meets Safe Mode, draws its input unchanged and is deferred; the status bar says how many, `effect.deferredStatus` lists them with their object, effect and reason, and Effect › Refresh Deferred Effects (`effect.refreshDeferred`) runs them again with a fresh budget. Each document has its own budget, an edit runs the stages it changes, and exports, Expand Appearance and commands run every stage under the 5 s limit of each run. The web build times the budget and each run's limit with the page's `performance.now()`.

 - **Plug-in settings and cache (G17, #2191):** at plug-in API level 2 a plug-in with the `settings` permission keeps settings of its own (`env.vc_settings_get`, `_set`, `_delete`) and one with `cache` a cache the user can clear (`env.vc_cache_read`, `_write`, `_clear`), under its id in the `Plug-ins` folder. Keys are plain names, never paths; VectorCraft's own caps refuse a write past 256 settings, 1 MiB of settings or 512 MiB of cache; a damaged settings file is moved aside and the settings start empty. `plugin.clearCache` empties a cache, `plugin.list` and `plugin.info` give `cacheBytes`, replacing a plug-in keeps its storage and `plugin.remove` deletes it. Another module under an id that is installed or has storage installs only with `replace: true`, which the app asks the user for; each storage call counts the whole settings file or cache entry it reads and writes toward the run's 1 GiB. Regressions: `crates/plugins/src/storage.rs`, `crates/plugins/tests/abi.rs`, `crates/engine/src/tests/plugins.rs`, `crates/engine/tests/plugin_clear_cache.rs`, `crates/engine/tests/plugin_fuzz.rs`. Scores and hours unchanged.
 - **Plug-in settings and cache totals in memory (#6228):** the settings stay in memory while `settings.json` keeps its size and modified time, a set to the same value writes nothing, every other change is written to the file before the call returns, and `cacheBytes` comes from a total kept while the `cache` folder keeps its modified time.
