The part of gap 15 that doesn't need video, from the public documentation of prototype triggers, plugins/widgets and prototype expressions.
- **Controller buttons on key/gamepad triggers.** A key trigger's key can be a controller button: `Gamepad A` ... `Gamepad Home`, the standard gamepad layout's 17 buttons (face buttons by position, shoulders, triggers, View/Menu, stick presses, d-pad, Home). The engine keeps its input-agnostic model (a key trigger with a key name; `figcraft_doc::proto::GAMEPAD_BUTTONS`, `gamepad_button`, `is_gamepad_button`, `uses_gamepad`). The interaction editor gets a Controller menu beside the key field; the trigger list shows the button's own name.
- **Reading controllers.** A new `Services::gamepad_held()` (bitmask of held buttons; default none). The player polls it only while the presented prototype has a controller trigger and the window has the focus (about 30 times a second), plays each press once (held buttons don't repeat), and fires the first matching key/gamepad trigger on the screen like a key.
- Desktop, Windows: Windows.Gaming.Input (Xbox-compatible controllers) through the `windows` crate the app already depends on (one more feature flag, `Gaming_Input`; no new crate).
- Browser: the Gamepad API through `web-sys` (features `Gamepad`, `GamepadButton`, `GamepadMappingType`; standard-mapped controllers only).
- macOS, Linux, FreeBSD: no controllers yet (documented gap).
- Control channel: `ui.input {events: [{gamepad: "A" | "Gamepad A" | 0}]}` presses a button in the prototype playing (presenter, else preview pane); an error when nothing plays.
- **REST import** maps controller triggers (`device` other than `KEYBOARD`) to the button at the code's standard-layout index instead of skipping them; two buttons at once or an unknown code is skipped with a warning (`.fig` goes through the same path).
- **Widgets react to clicks in a presented prototype.** A click on a widget's clickable part in the presenter or the preview pane (when no interaction on the layer takes it) calls the plugin back through the canvas's own callback with the same sandbox limits, on the player's copy of the file (`widgets::click_on`, a scratch session holding the copy and the installed plugins): the widget changes in the prototype only, the file and its undo history stay untouched, restarting starts the widget over. Failures (plugin missing or failing) toast; toasts now also show over the full-window presenter.
- **Variable mode lookups.** Lookups (`accent[Dark]`, `mode(Theme)`), set-variable-mode affecting later expressions in the same interaction, and every operator the documentation lists already held; they are now behaviour cases. New `proto.evaluate {expression | expr, id?}` (MCP and agents) computes an expression where a layer's interaction would run, without changing anything. No other cheap expression gap found: every documented operator (numbers, text join, booleans, comparisons, negation, mode lookup) already existed.
- Docs: prototyping-parity (new rule rows, features, revision), target-app-parity area 13 and totals, ROADMAP, gaps.md gap 15, roadmap.md M5, mcp.md, plugins.md, control-protocol.md.
Dependencies: none added. Windows uses the existing `windows` 0.62 dependency with the `Gaming_Input` feature; the browser uses the existing `web-sys` with three more features. The usual Rust controller library (gilrs) was not taken: its Linux backend links the system's libudev (a C library, needing headers on CI and the FreeBSD job), which breaks the pure-Rust rule.
UI strings come from per-language TOML catalogs compiled in (English text as the key and fallback, named placeholders, one/other plurals, context suffixes); command labels are translated at display time while ids, CLI, MCP and control output stay English; accessibility names follow. Preferences > Language (System / English / Español, live; the system language from the OS or the browser), pref.language for scripts. A key check test guards the catalogs. The Spanish catalog is a machine draft awaiting native review; docs/translating.md explains adding a language.
- Browser client (step 4): the web build joins sessions a desktop app hosts
through the browser's WebSocket API (web-sys, binary frames, the same
message encoding). Its connection logic is a target-independent state
machine (collab-net driver.rs): hello on open, changes and presence held
until the welcome, throttled presence, keep-alive pings, a silent host
counted as dropped, reconnect with backoff, final refusals. Tested natively
against a scripted socket and a real host over loopback. Hosting stays
desktop-only (LiveLink::can_host; collab.peers canHost). https pages are
told up front that they can only reach ws:// sessions on this computer.
- Shared join logic (join.rs: GuestConfig, outcomes, taking in host messages)
and transport limits (limits.rs) used by the native guest and the browser.
- Invite links: `figcraft figcraft://join?...` joins on start (a bad link
opens the Join dialog with it); file:// arguments are paths. Windows
registers a per-user figcraft:// opener (HKCU\Software\Classes\figcraft)
behind a Registry trait (tests use a fake): collab.registerLinks {on?} and a
Preferences checkbox, default on for installed builds, never for builds
from source. macOS Info.plist declares CFBundleURLTypes; the Linux desktop
entry declares x-scheme-handler/figcraft and passes %U.
- Join dialog: Escape closes it and no longer reaches the canvas (selection
kept); its field has the keyboard when it opens.
- Docs: collab-protocol (browser client, links, mixed content), mcp,
control-protocol, README, web hosting notes, collaboration wording in the
progress docs (numbers unchanged).

The 0.3.0 web release failed packaging/web/package.sh's 24 MiB gate: the wasm grew from
22.2 MB (0.2.0) to 27.0 MB once the plugin sandbox (wasmi + wasmparser, #101) and the
collaboration crates (#103-#105) joined the browser build, which still used the desktop
`release` profile (opt-level 3, thin LTO, 4 codegen units).
- Cargo.toml: new `web-release` profile (inherits release; opt-level "s", fat LTO, one codegen
unit, no debug info, stripped). opt-level "z" measured 16.9 MB; "s" keeps render speed.
- apps/figcraft-web/index.html: build with that profile, and pass the wasm features rustc emits
(bulk memory etc.) to wasm-opt, which otherwise rejects the size-optimised module.
- Version 0.3.0 -> 0.3.1. docs/releasing.md: the web profile and size history.

* M9: real-time collaboration protocol (design)
docs/collab-protocol.md: WebSocket sessions with a server-ordered,
per-property last-writer-wins document sync, client-scoped ids,
fractional positions for children, ephemeral presence (cursors,
selections, follow), per-user undo, hosting from the app first and a
self-hosted server next, and the implementation plan. ROADMAP gains M9.

* M9: collaboration core: ids, change sets, server ordering, convergence
Step 1 of docs/collab-protocol.md, no networking:
- Client-scoped node ids: Document::set_client_id makes alloc_id hand out
client << 32 | counter; single-user files allocate as before; the id
counter is no longer part of document equality.
- crates/collab (layer 2): the synced object/property model (every saved
Node field, plus document-level styles, comments, variables, images,
dev snapshots, library data), Change batches, an O(changed) diff, strict
and lenient apply, fractional sibling positions, snapshots.
- Server (ordering, validation, rejects with fixes) and Client (optimistic
view, replay under remote batches, author-side repair of derived data)
as pure state machines; binary (version byte + postcard, JSON values) and
JSON message forms, fuzzed decoders.
- Engine: normalize as the recompute hook, collab.diff.
- Tests: round trips over random real commands, an N-client convergence
fuzz test over delayed in-order links, junk batches.

* M9: fmt after merge
* M9: live sessions: host from the app, invite links, live cursors and presence
Step 2 of docs/collab-protocol.md, networking and presence half:
- crates/collab-net (layer 6): WebSocket transport (sync tungstenite, a
reader and a writer thread per connection, no async runtime), the
session host the app embeds (runs figcraft_collab::Server as the
authority, carries its messages), invite links, presence throttling
(~30 Hz, latest wins), limits (sockets, hello/idle timeouts, message
size, rate, slow clients), keep-alive, clean close, reconnect with
backoff; a browser stand-in until the web-sys client (step 4).
- engine: live session state (status, peers, presence, follow) and the
collab.host/stop/join/leave/peers/follow/cursor commands; the network
is reached only through the LiveLink the app installs.
- ui-egui: remote cursors (pointer drawn in code, name tag, gliding),
selection outlines (once documents sync), avatars in the right panel
with follow, the Share popover (start, invite link + URL with Copy,
stop), File > Join live session.
- desktop app and MCP headless session install the link; xtask layers
keeps networking crates out of L0-L5.
- Documents don't sync between apps yet (follow-up).

* M9: live sessions: document sync between apps
- The host's session runs figcraft_collab::Server seeded with the shared
document; every app (the host's too, through the hub without a socket)
is a collab Client. Guests open the host's file from the welcome as a
new tab; leaving keeps it as a local copy.
- Engine: after each local action (a gesture once it ends; nothing during
version or text previews) the session document is diffed into one
Changes batch; server batches go through Client::receive with
EngineRecompute and are installed with Session::apply_remote, which
never touches the undo history. Batches arriving mid-gesture wait.
- Transport: Changes/Reject/Welcome reach the engine as Event::Sync;
LiveLink::send carries batches in order; hellos are limited to 64 KiB,
joined clients to the core's message size.
- Tests: engine sync against a real Server (ids in the client's space,
one batch per gesture, remote edits skip undo, deferral, closing the
file leaves), three apps over loopback converging (create, move,
recolour, delete, rename) and a late joiner getting the server's state.
- Docs: collab-protocol, mcp, README, roadmap docs; the UI's
"cursors only" note is gone, replaced by the per-person undo caveat.

* M8: accessibility: screen reader names, keyboard navigation mode
- Screen readers: the custom-painted controls report a role, name, value and
state to AccessKit (number and text fields, dropdowns, segmented and toggle
buttons, tools with their keys, layer rows as tree items, pages, tabs, menu
items, the canvas describing the selection), from the shared widget helpers
and a `Tip` trait for ad-hoc icon buttons. Regions are named containers.
- Keyboard navigation: F6 / Shift+F6 (view.nextRegion / view.previousRegion)
cycle the toolbar, layers, canvas and properties; Tab / Shift+Tab move within
a region and wrap; Enter or Space activate; arrows move along the toolbar and
through the layer rows; menus and flyouts opened from the keyboard take it and
give it back; Escape returns to the canvas. A focus ring (new `focus` token)
shows until the next pointer press. Tab on the canvas selects the next layer
again instead of moving egui's focus to the tab strip; Enter that starts a
field edit no longer ends it.
- Reduced motion: pref.reduceMotion and the system setting (Windows
UISettings, macOS, GNOME, prefers-reduced-motion) turn egui's animations off.
- Contrast: light secondary and accent text meet WCAG AA.
- ui.inspect reports focus {region, keyboard, control} and reduceMotion;
ui.set {focusRegion}.

* M8: parity report command count after merging main
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* M8: accessibility: regression test against nested egui context locks
A debug build's temporary logging called the context inside a context closure and hung; the shipped code never does. Document the rule in a11y.rs and run every accessibility path with the AccessKit tree on, so a nested call fails the test (debug builds panic after 10 s) instead of hanging.
