When the page's WebGPU device was lost, the canvas kept showing its
last frame: edits still went through and rendered frames were right,
but the editor never showed them and nothing said why (the status
message about it is drawn in the canvas that can't present any more).
The page now covers the canvas with a notice that offers Save Project
(a download) and Reload. Reload first writes pending changes to
browser storage, so the session snapshot brings the project and its
unsaved changes back; if that write fails it says so and offers
Reload Anyway. Without a kept session (?empty, memory storage) the
notice says to save first.
Test: apps/effectcraft-web/tests/page.mjs (Node, fake DOM).

Add Files... and Upload Folder... read every picked file in one go and
rejected on the first file the browser couldn't read; the Media
Browser dropped that rejection, so nothing was added and nothing said
why. Each file is now read on its own: the readable ones are added and
the status bar names the unreadable ones with the browser's reason and
suggests picking them again. Cancelling the picker is not reported.
Test: apps/effectcraft-web/tests/page.mjs (Node, fake DOM).

A write to browser storage that failed (quota exceeded) was dropped:
effectcraft.flush() resolved anyway, nothing retried it, and a reload
restored the project from before the change. The failed key now stays
pending and is written again after 2 s (doubling to a minute while it
keeps failing; a newer change of the key goes with it), and flush()
rejects with the error.
Test: failed_writes_retry (store). The flush itself runs only in the
browser.

worker.js left a rejected start (its async init) unhandled, which a
page's Worker error event doesn't see: the page waited for "ready"
forever and the render stayed pending until cancelled. The failed start
is now re-raised where the page's onerror sees it, like the other
worker failures; the job fails with the error and the worker is
terminated.
Test: apps/effectcraft-web/tests/workers.mjs (worker.js with a stub
module whose init rejects; host.js with a worker whose start fails).

Job workers remembered the files they were sent by path and byte
length, so footage replaced by different bytes of the same length at
the same path was never resent: a Render Queue export through a reused
worker rendered the old image while the page showed the new one.
Frame workers remembered paths only, so they never got a replacement
at all.
Every write of a stored file now gets a version, and both kinds of
worker remember the version they were sent.
Tests: versions_change_with_every_write (store) and
apps/effectcraft-web/tests/workers.mjs (Node, fake Worker: the
replacement is sent once, an unchanged file not again).

The web app reopens the last visit's project and, when it had unsaved changes, marked it
modified with `bump()`. Since M3.9 the modified mark follows the saved snapshot, and a bump on
the very project just opened counts as "back at the saved state", so restored changes looked
saved (no `*`, no unsaved-changes prompt). `Session::mark_unsaved` forgets the saved snapshot
instead: the project stays modified until saved, whatever is undone. Regression test included.

These crates have no production panic sites: add the deny attribute so they stay clean
(geom, color, model, automation, host, export, plugin, and the desktop, CLI and web apps). The
plugin's wasm-only test module gets a separate cfg(test) attribute so clippy recognises it as
test code.

warp.status solved the stabilization plan (Subspace Warp eigen-decompositions and mesh fits)
on the page the first time it saw an analysis: ~4.9 s blocking the browser's event loop in
the smoke test. The analysis job now sends the plan summary with its result, and a settings
change has a WarpPlan job solve it (status reports stabilizing meanwhile). Desktop unchanged.

contentFill.generate sends its plan (FillPlan) to a browser job worker:
the layer's frames render in passes on the worker's WebGPU device, the PNG
sequence goes back to browser storage (Services::store_file), and the page
adds the fill layer when the plan returns (WorkerReply::Fill). The smoke
test checks it; docs updated.

- GPU in browser job workers: each job worker opens its own WebGPU device
(deferred readbacks); the Render Queue export and the analyses' frame loops
are futures (render::passes, offload::run_request_async) whose frames
render in passes, awaiting the device between them. GPU particles and
Advanced 3D read back under keys too. workers.jobs reports passes and
readbacks; the smoke test measures them.
- Layer buffers in the browser's OPFS disk cache: frame workers back their
layer caches with a PrefetchStore; the page plans what to fetch before a
request from recent misses (LayerPrefetch over the shared DiskIndex).
- Templates embed footage (default on, size-capped with a warning) and
creating from a template extracts it next to the new project / into
browser storage.
- ICC LUT profiles (lut8/lut16/lutAtoB/lutBtoA, from the public ICC spec) in
Simulate Output > My Custom RGB, baked into a 3D LUT for the viewer.

- GPU in the browser: each frame worker opens its own WebGPU device (Gpu::request_deferred) and
renders the GPU compositor and GPU effects with deferred readbacks (effectcraft-gpu deferred):
readbacks keyed by content start with map_async and miss, the pass returns placeholders, the
layer cache's gate drops inserts, and FrameServer::resume renders again once the device
delivered. Backend Auto times whole frames per comp in the workers. Frames with effects go to
GPU workers instead of the page. CPU fallback without WebGPU in workers (?nogpuworkers).
- Fix: a WGSL constant (3.40282347e38) that Chrome rejects invalidated every GPU kernel in Chrome
(the page's compositor too); a test checks every float literal fits f32.
- Disk cache in the Origin Private File System: workers write sealed frame entries with sync
access handles (temp file + move), the page keeps the DiskIndex (LRU under the settings' limit,
at most half the quota) and reads hits instead of rendering; survives reloads; blue cache bar.
- Storage manager: Settings ▸ Disk ▸ Browser Storage (usage/quota, persistent storage, Clear
buttons, automation ids) and storage.info / storage.persist / storage.clear (StorageHost).
- Docs: web.md (GPU workers, deferred passes, disk cache, storage manager, threading design:
one engine instance per worker), architecture, preferences, parity (WEB-1), roadmap.
- Tests: deferred passes vs CPU on a real device, placeholder gating, frame server passes and
Auto, GPU worker routing + disk cache across a reload, storage commands and widgets, store
usage by kind; smoke test: GPU effect frames in workers with pixel parity, disk hits after a
reload, storage manager.

Effect Controls: Lumetri RGB and hue/saturation curve graphs, Colorama's
palette wheel, Glow's colour map strip and Arbitrary Map curves, Reshape
correspondence buttons and viewer handles (all prop.set, one undo step per
gesture, automation ids). Preview panel scrolls; Composition/Timeline tabs
get close, label swatch and viewer lock; Effect Controls tab the layer
swatch; dropdowns elide long text. Fix the browser start (no default disk
cache folder on wasm32). Browser smoke test covers frame workers, waiting
renders and the Media Browser.

Viewer frames render in long-lived Web Workers holding a project replica
(engine::remote: structural JSON diff/patch, Mirror, FrameServer); the
frame cache hands jobs to a RemoteFrames renderer (UI-thread fallback).
Roto Brush propagation runs in a job worker and streams segmentations
back (FrameSeg binary form), relayed to frame workers. Control-channel
wait:true commands whose job is offloaded reply when it ends. The Media
Browser browses a pluggable Browser: the file system on the desktop;
browser storage and File System Access folders on the web.

- Persistence: settings, shortcuts, recent projects, imported media, saved projects and
auto-saves live in OPFS (IndexedDB fallback) through an in-memory mirror flushed in the
background (apps/effectcraft-web/src/store.rs, persist.rs); ConfigStore gains FileOps so
auto-save / recovery work in the browser store; the session snapshot restores the last
project + editor state on reload; File > Open Recent works from storage.
- Audio: Web Audio output (AudioWorklet, ScriptProcessor fallback) fed by AudioPlayback::pump
on wasm32; A/V sync from AudioContext.currentTime; meters; unlock on first gesture.
- Background jobs: engine::offload (WorkerRequest/WorkerReply protocol, Offload trait,
run_request); Render Queue, tracker, mask tracker, Warp Stabilizer and Roto Freeze run in Web
Workers (a second engine instance on the shared compiled module), progress streamed back;
cancel terminates the worker.
- GPU: WebGPU viewer frames drawn straight from the compositor's texture (gpu_display on
wasm32 when the viewer draws plainly); async readback (Gpu::read_display_async) for pixels.
- PWA: manifest, service worker precaching the build (xtask fills list/version), icons copied
from assets/app-icon; COOP/COEP kept from cached responses; offline reload works.
- window.effectcraft: saveToBrowser, listStored, removeStored, flush; info() reports storage,
audio, gpu, workers.
- Tests: native store + protocol + offload (render, track, cancel) tests; smoke.mjs extended
(GPU path, worker render responsiveness, audio gesture + playback, reload persistence,
Open Recent, offline reload).

- assets/app-icon/: master and light SVGs, 1024 px PNG, .icns (Apple grid), .ico (16-256),
hicolor 16-512 + scalable, LICENSE.txt, README with palette (#e0368f / #efe9dc / #0b0b0c),
tile geometry and provenance; attribution sidecars + ATTRIBUTION.md rows.
- packaging/icons.sh regenerates everything with resvg, iconutil and the new `cargo xtask ico`.
- Runtime icon via ViewportBuilder::with_icon (padded variant on macOS) and Wayland app ID
ai.storyteller.effectcraft; packaging/linux/ai.storyteller.effectcraft.desktop.
- apps/effectcraft/build.rs embeds the .ico and VERSIONINFO into effectcraft.exe (winresource,
Windows targets only; a missing resource compiler is a warning).
- Web favicon.svg is now the unicorn icon.

- apps/effectcraft-web (L6): eframe web runner booting the shared EffectcraftApp with a browser
session: in-memory file table, <input type=file> pickers and drag-and-drop for open/import,
downloads for Save and Render Queue outputs (several files as one stored .zip), and the
window.effectcraft promise API over the control channel. Demo project on start.
- wasm32 runtime fixes: web-time for Instant/SystemTime (render, engine, export, ui-egui);
Frames renders queued jobs on the UI thread (Frames::pump) instead of a thread pool;
Render Queue runs inline; relative outputs resolve under / ; control PNGs inline.
- effectcraft-export: per-job output Sink (files to memory instead of disk); host FileExporter
carries it; test that sink exports touch no file.
- xtask web [--dev] [--serve PORT] (wasm-bindgen 0.2.129, optional wasm-opt, COOP/COEP server);
effectcraft-web in WEB_CRATES. docs/web.md, headless Chrome smoke test, favicon (+attribution).
