Subject: [PATCH 001/344] LR-IMP-FORMATS: CR3 photos render in the aspect ratio
 set in the camera

The Canon maker note's AspectInfo (tag 0x009a: aspect code, cropped width,
height, left, top) holds the rectangle of the shot, measured from the
recommended image crop. Use it as the CR3 default crop, so 3:2, 4:3, 16:9 and
1:1 shots develop in the shape the photographer chose. The tag is ignored when
it is missing, does not fit, or the recommended crop itself is inconsistent.

RENDER_CACHE_VERSION 15 -> 16. The M50 C-RAW corpus sample (raw.pixls.us 2663)
was shot at 1:1 and now develops at 4000 x 4000.

Subject: [PATCH 002/344] LR-IMP-FORMATS: decode lossy JPEG XL DNG tiles
 completely and without clipping

Decode every JPEG XL tile with wide (32-bit) modular buffers: the
modular_16bit_buffers header flag does not hold on real lossy files (68
of 108 tiles failed with narrow buffers).

Lossy (XYB) tiles are taken from the decoder as linear sRGB primaries
and restored to the declared primaries with a plain 3x3 matrix, instead
of the decoder's gamut-mapped, [0, 1]-clipped conversion. Lossy tiles
whose declared encoding cannot be restored faithfully (ICC profile,
non-linear transfer function, non-D65 white point, intensity target
above 255 nits, single plane) are unsupported. Lossless output is
unchanged.

A JPEG XL tile that fails to decode is now an error for the image
(the file falls back to its embedded preview) instead of a zero tile.

Render cache version 17.

Subject: [PATCH 003/344] LR-IMP-FORMATS: decode Hasselblad 3FR files with
 uncompressed raw data

TIFF raws that describe a full-resolution CFA IFD with DNG's tags (levels, crop, AsShotNeutral) but carry no DNG version tag are read by the DNG reader (RawFormat::CfaTiff, dng::decode_as). RGGB when the file states no CFAPattern. Lossless JPEG scans with a predictor selection value above 7 are rejected with that reason and stay preview-only. .3fr and .fff are imported from folders. RENDER_CACHE_VERSION 17.

Subject: [PATCH 004/344] fix(macos): prevent SIGILL crash on exit by replacing
 viewport close with clean process exit

### Summary
When selecting "Quit LightCraft" from the native macOS menu bar, the application occasionally crashes with an `EXC_BAD_INSTRUCTION` (SIGILL) error report during shutdown.

### Root Cause
1. The native menu action triggered `ctx.send_viewport_cmd(egui::ViewportCommand::Close)`.
2. Forcing an explicit viewport close via the command queue while macOS and AppKit are initiating their own termination sequence creates a race condition with `winit`.
3. This conflict during native window, view, and observer teardown leads to an illegal instruction fault.

### Solution
- Replaced the manual `ViewportCommand::Close` trigger on `QUIT` with a clean `std::process::exit(0)`.
- This bypasses the problematic `winit`/AppKit teardown race condition on macOS, allowing the application to shut down instantly and cleanly without generating crash reports.

Subject: [PATCH 005/344] LR-IMP-FORMATS: read plain packed 12-bit PEF strips
 tagged as PackBits (older Pentax, Samsung GX-1L)

Compression 32773 is accepted in the PEF reader only when every strip has exactly the packed size of its rows at the declared bit depth, and is then read as uncompressed MSB-first samples. Any other 32773 size stays unsupported. Uncompressed PEFs take their colour filter from the Exif CFAPattern as seen from the image area origin. A Samsung-branded TIFF whose maker note has the Pentax layout is probed as PEF. RENDER_CACHE_VERSION 16 to 17.

+### Masking
+- Drag anywhere inside the selected radial gradient's ellipse to move it, including rotated
+  ellipses and radial components in compound masks. Edge and rotation handles keep their existing
+  functions, and one Undo restores the entire drag.

 ### Albums tree
 - Album folders fold with the same disclosure triangle as Local, By Date, Folders and Keywords.
 - Right-click a folder ▸ New ▸ Create Album… / Create Smart Album… / Create Smart Album from Filter… / Create Folder…

 During development you can also point the client at `cargo run --release -p lightcraft-cli -- mcp`

+## Shared core tools
+
+These follow the same conventions as [filmcraft #28](https://github.com/storytold/filmcraft/pull/28).
+They are listed in both full and compact mode; existing documented helpers remain listed too.
+There are no hidden compatibility aliases.
+
+| Tool | Arguments | Result |
+|---|---|---|
+| `command_list` | `filter?`, `enabled_only?` | Command catalog |
+| `command_run` | `id`, `params?` | Command result |
+| `command_batch` | `steps: [{id, params?}]`, `stop_on_error?` | Counts and per-step results; stops on error by default |
+| `doc_inspect` | none | Library state and catalog counts |
+| `render_preview` | `id?`, `max_side?`, `format?` | Image; neither changes selection nor saves a file |
+
+Each edit in a batch has its own undo step. Connect mode also lists `ui_inspect` and
+`ui_screenshot` (the latter has no output-path argument). The existing `inspect_ui`,
+`screenshot`, `list_commands`, `run_command` and `render_photo` keep their documented arguments.
+Ports and connect mode are unchanged.
+
+Every listed tool has a title and all four MCP hints. Generated command tools are conservatively
+marked as edits. Helpers with optional output paths are marked as writers; `export` is not
+idempotent because the default conflict policy chooses a new filename on repeated calls.
+Unknown helper argument keys return JSON-RPC `-32602` naming the key and accepted arguments.
+Generated `cmd_*` tools and nested command params remain free-form: the registry has prose
+parameter docs, not machine-readable schemas. Existing command validation (including strict
+export options) is preserved. Escaped tool panics return `isError: true`, and the session keeps
+serving; backend panics during resource reads or tool listing return an internal error.
+The headless backend owns its session directly, without a session mutex.
+
+`lightcraft://document` and `lightcraft://commands` contain JSON matching `doc_inspect` and
+`command_list`. Existing resources remain available. Requests declaring MCP 2026-07-28 in
+per-request `_meta` receive `resultType: complete` and list/read cache hints; reads are not cached.

Subject: [PATCH 008/344] MCP: add export progress and cancellation between
 photos

Answer ping at photo boundaries, preserve queued requests and EOF completion, and suppress cancelled responses. Keep completed exports and the existing atomic file writer; cover cancellation, output preservation and transport poison recovery.

+## Export progress and cancellation
+
+Headless direct `export`, `command_run` / `run_command` with `app.export`, and `cmd_app_export`
+calls report photo-count progress when `params._meta.progressToken` is a string or number.
+Notifications are strictly increasing, at most ten per second plus the final total. No token
+means no notifications. `ping` is answered at photo boundaries; other requests wait in order
+until the export ends. EOF lets a pending export finish and preserves queued requests.
+
+`notifications/cancelled` with `params.requestId` stops the matching export before its next
+photo, suppressing its response. Unknown/completed request ids are ignored. A photo already
+being processed finishes first: completed photos remain, each written with the existing atomic
+file writer, and there are no partial files to delete. Unrelated outputs and earlier exports
+are untouched. A failed export is an `isError` tool result. Transport mutexes recover poisoning.
+
+Connect mode and exports inside `command_batch` remain synchronous and do not report MCP
+progress or cancellation. Use a direct headless export call for this behavior.

Subject: [PATCH 010/344] LR-IMP-FORMATS: decode Canon sRAW and mRAW CR2 from
 their YCbCr data

sRAW and mRAW store subsampled YCbCr in a lossless-JPEG frame cut into
slices of whole MCUs. Reuse the subsampled lossless decoder added for
Sony M/S ARW with Canon's per-component sequential prediction, re-chop
the stream into image planes, and convert to linear white-balanced RGB
with chroma gains measured per file against the camera's own IFD2 RGB.
Render cache version 17.

+//! Canon sRAW / mRAW: reduced-resolution YCbCr "raw" frames in CR2 (raw IFD tag `0xc6c5` = 4).
+//!
+//! What the files contain (measured on the 31 CC0 sRAW / mRAW samples of 16 models, see the evidence below):
+//!
+//! - The raw strip is one lossless-JPEG frame with three components. Luma is sampled 2×1 (sRAW, 4:2:2, `0x21`) or
+//!   2×2 (mRAW, 4:2:0, `0x22`), both chroma components 1×1; precision 15, predictor 1, no restart markers.
+//!   The frame's width and height are only a factorisation of the sample count: they are not the image size.
+//! - The decoded sample stream (MCU after MCU: `Y Y Cb Cr` or `Y Y Y Y Cb Cr`) is cut into vertical slices exactly
+//!   like the CFA data (`cr2_slice = [n, w, last]`, widths counted in samples). A slice row is a whole number of
+//!   MCUs, so the image is `Σw / MCU-size × 2` pixels wide, and one slice row is one pixel row (4:2:2) or two (4:2:0).
+//! - Prediction: each component is a one-dimensional chain in decoding order (so the second luma row of a 4:2:0 MCU
+//!   continues from the end of the first), and the first sample of every frame row starts from the first sample of
+//!   the previous one ([`ljpeg::Prediction::Sequential`]). The Sony prediction (geometric) gives vertical stripes on
+//!   these files.
+//! - The samples are linear. Luma is the BT.601 luma (0.299, 0.587, 0.114; also the TIFF 6.0 default
+//!   `YCbCrCoefficients`) of white-balanced camera RGB, about 7/8 of the black-subtracted sensor counts; chroma is
+//!   centred on 16384. White balance is baked in (neutral surfaces have neutral chroma); which of the maker note's
+//!   white-balance sets was used is not always the as-shot one, so it is not undone.
+//! - Chroma is stored as a scaled colour difference, `R − Y = a·(Cr − 16384)` and `B − Y = b·(Cb − 16384)`, with
+//!   `G` from the luma equation. `a` and `b` are about 1.0 on bodies from 2012 on, but about 5.7 and 7.4 (the TIFF
+//!   6.0 YCbCr ratio 1.402 : 1.772, scaled by about 4.1) on the 2008–2010 bodies (5D Mark II, 50D, 7D, 60D, 1D Mark IV).
+//!   Rather than keying a table on the model, the gains are measured per file against the 16-bit RGB image the
+//!   camera stores in IFD2 for these files (see [`chroma_gains`]).
+//!
+//! Only these files were used as evidence: the sRAW samples themselves, the same cameras' CFA files of the same
+//! scenes (raw counts against the decoded samples), and the IFD2 image. The ExifTool tag documentation was used for
+//! tag names.

Subject: [PATCH 011/344] LR-IMP-FORMATS: decode Samsung SRW files with
 uncompressed raw data

Samsung SRW raws whose raw IFD (private compression 32769 or 32770) stores the samples uncompressed are decoded from the sensor data: 12-bit samples packed two in three bytes (bit order told apart from the samples; NX5, NX10, NX11 and NX20, NX200, NX210, NX1000, NX1100) and 16-bit little-endian words (EX1, WB2000). CFA layout from the raw IFD's CFAPattern; framing, white balance, black and saturation levels from the maker note (value offsets relative to the note; the vectors are stored offset by its EncryptionKey); a one-direction Exif picture size crops to the centre of the framing; black from dark rows or columns when the file states none; saturation plateau below the stated level wins. Compressed codings (32770 with fewer bytes, 32772, 32773) stay preview only with that reason. srw is imported from folders; SRW takes the file-local camera look. RENDER_CACHE_VERSION 17.

+//! Samsung SRW: the variants that store the sensor samples uncompressed.
+//!
+//! Sources: TIFF 6.0 (container: a big- or little-endian TIFF whose IFD0 points at sub-IFDs, one of them the raw
+//! image), Exif 2.3 (`CFAPattern`, `PixelXDimension`, `PixelYDimension`; maker note `0x927c`), the ExifTool Samsung
+//! tag-name documentation (`SensorAreas` `0xa010`, `EncryptionKey` `0xa020`, `WB_RGGBLevelsUncorrected` `0xa021`,
+//! `WB_RGGBLevelsBlack` `0xa028`, `RawData` `0xa048`) and our own black-box analysis of CC0 samples from raw.pixls.us
+//! (NX5, NX10, NX11, NX20, NX200, NX210, NX1000, NX1100, EX1, WB2000; every number below was measured on them):
+//!
+//! - The raw image is the IFD whose `Compression` is a private value (32769..=32773); its `CFAPattern` (`0x828e`)
+//!   names the 2x2 layout, anchored at the first sample of the stored array. Checked on the files above: the colours
+//!   of the decoded mosaic follow the camera's JPEG best with exactly that layout (`corpus_samsung_srw`).
+//! - Compression 32769 (EX1, WB2000): one 16-bit little-endian word per sample (the TIFF is big-endian, the words are
+//!   not); the strip holds exactly `width * height * 2` bytes.
+//! - Compression 32770 with exactly `width * height * 12 / 8` strip bytes (NX5, NX10, NX11, NX20, NX200, NX210, NX1000,
+//!   NX1100): 12-bit samples, two in three bytes, rows without padding. The NX5/NX10/NX11 files read them MSB-first,
+//!   the others LSB-first; the file doesn't say which, the image does: in the wrong order neighbouring same-colour
+//!   samples differ 5 to 11 times more (10 files, every one decided by that margin), see [`lsb_is_smoother`].
+//! - Every other shape of those and of the other private values (32770 with fewer bytes: NX30, NX300, NX2000,
+//!   EK-GN120; 32772: NX mini, NX3000, NX3300; 32773: NX1, NX500) is a compressed coding: reported as unsupported.
+//! - The maker note is a plain IFD whose value offsets count from the start of the note, not of the TIFF. Several
+//!   vectors are stored offset by `EncryptionKey`, 11 integers in every file (element `i` of a vector uses key
+//!   `i mod 11`): `WB_RGGBLevelsUncorrected` and `WB_RGGBLevelsBlack` hold `value + key`, `RawData` holds
+//!   `value - key`, found by trying both signs and keeping the one that gives plausible numbers (green levels
+//!   4096 in all but one file, saturation levels 4095 or 16383, black levels 0 to 3, the dark-column level).
+//! - `SensorAreas`: the second rectangle (left, top, right, bottom) is the camera JPEG's framing (its size equals the
+//!   JPEG's in every file but WB2000's), used as the active area. Registered against the JPEG its centre agrees to
+//!   within 2 pixels (NX10 family; the NX20 family's JPEG is lens-corrected, edges differ).
+//! - The Exif picture size is smaller than the framing in one direction only on the WB2000 (16:9 from a 4:3 sensor):
+//!   the JPEG is the centre of the framing (registration: top offset 366 = framing top 22 + (2736 - 2048) / 2).
+//! - `RawData`: four black levels, then saturation levels (R, G1, G2, B twice). The EX1 saturates at 15881, not at its
+//!   stated 16383 (85786 samples sit on the plateau), so a plateau below the stated level wins.
+//! - Black: `WB_RGGBLevelsBlack` when it states one (NX5, NX10, NX11: 2 to 3, the right-hand dark columns measure
+//!   3.5 to 4.5); otherwise the dark rows or columns outside the framing (EX1: eight rows at 2.3); otherwise 0.
+//! - `WB_RGGBLevelsUncorrected` divided by its mean green is the as-shot gain: the renders of the 12 files match the
+//!   camera JPEG at median ΔE76 2.2 to 7.6 (10.7 on the backlit WB2000 sample, 5.7 after registration).

A DNG's `ProfileGainTableMap` / `ProfileGainTableMap2` (Apple ProRAW's local tone map; both versions, DNG 1.7 precedence, the file's byte order with a big-endian fallback) is read and written back by DNG export but not rendered, as Lightroom Classic renders ProRAW without it (measured on one CC0 iPhone 12 Pro ProRAW); Sony ARW, Nikon NEF, Panasonic RW2, Fujifilm RAF, Canon CR3 and CR2, Pentax PEF and Samsung SRW get a guarded file-local fit to their own embedded JPEG — chromaticity matrix + hue/saturation/value table + tone and chroma curves, relative WB — or, with a bundled or local per-model profile pooled from many photos (`lightcraft-cli calibrate`, ARW, NEF and RAF so far, `crates/engine/src/camera_profiles.rs`), the profile's colour and only their own tone/chroma curves (on 29 held-out ILCE-7M4 photos mean ΔE vs the camera JPEG 3.54 → 3.10), kept with smart previews (see docs/camera-preview-colour.md); ARW: on 10 public raw.pixls.us samples from 8 bodies 7 fits were accepted, mean ΔE vs the camera JPEG 17–26 → 3–10; NEF: 13 of 13 decodable samples (D750, D780, D850, D7500, Z 50 and local D7500 shots) accepted, ΔE 13–46 → 3–8 (issue #150); RW2 / RWL: 140 of 174 public samples accepted, from 93 of the 114 bodies with a preview, median ΔE 5.0 with matching lightness (13 of the 14 corpus files with a preview: ΔE 9.6–27 → 2.8–8.9; most rejections are compacts and kit zooms whose camera JPEG is distortion-corrected); a fit that fails the gates on all pixels is retried away from edges, where a lens-corrected camera JPEG still lines up (issue #232: the six distortion-corrected public ILCE-7RM2 samples ΔE 16.6–16.9 → 3.7–3.8, the corpus GX80 19.1 → 7.9); RAF: bundled X-H2S/X-T4 profiles from 201/545 photos; on 150 withheld files mean ΔE improves slightly over per-file fitting (X-H2S 1.70 → 1.62, X-T4 2.43 → 2.34); 23 of 24 references from 13 bodies accepted, including the dark X-H2S samples (8.74 → 2.25) (`docs/camera-preview-colour.md`); this is not measured camera calibration; other raws and rejected fits use a neutral fallback (camera RGB ≈ linear sRGB, `matrix_is_fallback`) with as-shot white balance, so colours are muted and not accurate. Needs our own per-camera calibration: matrices the files carry themselves (e.g. Olympus `ColorMatrix`), fitting each camera to its own embedded JPEG, then chart shots.

 ### RAW decoding
+- Samsung SRW files without compression now open as raws: NX5, NX10, NX11, NX20, NX200, NX210, NX1000, NX1100, EX1
+  and WB2000. The compressed ones (NX1, NX30, NX300, NX500, NX2000, NX3000, NX3300, NX mini) still open from their
+  camera JPEG. Photos already imported pick the change up on Reload.
 - Canon CR2 and Pentax PEF raws get the same starting look fitted to the camera's own JPEG as ARW, NEF, RW2, RAF
   and CR3, instead of opening flat and desaturated (issue #310). Photos already imported pick it up when re-rendered.
 - JPEG XL compressed DNGs (DNG 1.7) now open: lossless tiles decode sample for sample (checked on synthetic files);

Subject: [PATCH 013/344] LR-IMP-FORMATS: read the PEF Exif CFAPattern from the
 array origin, not the image-area origin

The pattern was shifted by the image-area origin for compression 1 and
32773. The *ist D (area origin 19, 11, tag RGGB) fits RGGB from the array
origin in a mosaic-level fit against its camera JPEG, so the shifted reading
exchanged red and blue. The six 32773 files have an even origin and keep
their layout. Adds a hand-made-bytes test with an odd area origin for both
compressions.

Subject: [PATCH 014/344] M11.1: decode EOS R7 C-RAW (odd-height CRX QP map)

An odd-height adaptive QP map (EOS R7: 4732 sensor rows, 1183 QP rows)
was rejected as unsupported, so R7 C-RAW files opened from their embedded
JPEG. The map decodes to the exact end of its entropy stream; the last
row of the second-level high-frequency bands has no partner row and its
QP is used alone. Even-height maps never reach this rule, so the six
verified M50/R100/R8 fixtures are unchanged.

Checked on paired R7 RAW and C-RAW captures (ISO 100 and 6400): all
six C-RAW files decode, developed images match their RAW counterparts
visually, and ISO 6400 sensor means agree within 0.1%.

Subject: [PATCH 015/344] LR-IMP-FORMATS: read the PEF colour-filter layout
 from the Exif CFAPattern for Huffman-compressed files too

The Huffman-compressed Pentax files (compression 65535) assumed BGGR from
the array origin. The K10D, K200D, K2000 and every body from the K-3 on are
RGGB, so red and blue were exchanged before demosaicing. They now use the
Exif CFAPattern from the first sample of the stored array, like the other
compressions; BGGR stays the fallback for files without the tag. Extends the
CFA test to compression 65535. RENDER_CACHE_VERSION 17 to 18.

Subject: [PATCH 017/344] LR-IMP-FORMATS: drop the 40D luma floor from Canon
 sRAW decoding

The 512 floor and its ColorDataVersion 3 keying rested on one file.
Versions without a known black-level position now fall back to black 0
for the white level, so the 40D sRAW renders with slightly raised blacks.

Subject: [PATCH 018/344] LR-IMP-CAMERA-COVERAGE: xtask corpus verifies the
 sha256 of every downloaded corpus file

Each RAW_SAMPLES entry now carries its SHA-256 (computed from the file as downloaded; the ProRAW value was only a comment). cargo xtask corpus --download hashes every file, new or already present, deletes any mismatch so the next run fetches it again, and fails listing the actual and expected hashes. A unit test keeps names unique and hashes well-formed.

Subject: [PATCH 021/344] LR-PROF-CAMERACOLOR: camera local tone mapping
 (ProfileGainTableMap) as a per-photo opt-in

Renders a raw's DNG ProfileGainTableMap (Apple ProRAW's local tone mapping)
when the photo's Profile option "Camera local tone mapping" is on
(`profile.camera_local_tone`, off by default: Lightroom Classic renders
ProRAW without it). Built on #427's parser; supersedes the decode-time
applier of the first version of #273.

- raw/gaintable: GainTableMap::gain / evaluator (GainEval) per DNG 1.7.1:
  bilinear between tables with edges replicated, input clamp(weights .
  (R,G,B,min,max))^gamma in linear ProPhoto after the baseline exposure,
  index input x MapPointsN clamped to the last point. Saturating cell
  math; maps whose sizes don't match their gains aren't evaluated.
  SourcePlacement: where a developed source sits in the active area.
- pipeline/local_tone: the gain per output pixel in the scene-linear
  stage, before the white balance, mapped back through the frame (crop,
  user orientation, warp) and the EXIF orientation. lin_needs_cpu routes
  the stage to the CPU when it's on (CPU and GPU match); lin_key includes
  it. SourceInfo::local_tone carries the map from the decoder.
- develop: Profile::camera_local_tone (omitted from JSON when off, so
  existing settings and their hashes are unchanged); Profile row checkbox
  when the source has a map; translations.
- RENDER_CACHE_VERSION 17. Docs: parity row and What's New as an opt-in.

Off renders pixel-identical to main on two iPhone 15 Pro ProRAWs (12 and
48 MP). On adds ~60-75 ms to the scene-linear stage at 1536x2048 on a
2-core VM, the same for both files (cost follows output pixels).

Subject: [PATCH 022/344] LR-IMP-FORMATS: report Sony A200/A230/A350 packed ARW
 as unsupported (preview fallback)

The one-strip Sony ARW layout was accepted when the raw strip was 1.00-1.25x width x height bytes. The DSLR-A200, A230 and A350 sample files carry strips of 1.06x, 1.23x and 1.04x, passed that test and decoded as colour noise. Every file that decodes correctly (108 in the test archive) has a strip of exactly width x height bytes, so the layout is now accepted only then; the rest report "Sony ARW version 1 / packed compressed variant" and open from the embedded preview like the A290/A380. Part of #461 (not a decoder). RENDER_CACHE_VERSION 16 -> 19.

Subject: [PATCH 023/344] LR-BEHAV-GPU: compile DX12 shaders with FXC, never a
 stray dxcompiler.dll (issue #471)

wgpu's default DX12 compiler (Auto) loads whichever dxcompiler.dll the DLL
search path finds first. LightCraft ships none, so it picked up another
program's copy; one without dxil.dll beside it (e.g. DXC 1.7) warns that
the DXIL is unsigned, wgpu treats that as a compile error, its
indirect-validation pipelines fail, the device is lost and the window
never opens ("Parent device is lost", exit code 1).

Every wgpu instance (window and both compute devices) now uses
lightcraft_gpu::backend::backend_options(): wgpu's env options with the
DX12 compiler pinned to FXC (d3dcompiler_47.dll, part of Windows), unless
WGPU_DX12_COMPILER asks for another.

Subject: [PATCH 024/344] LR-PROF-CAMERACOLOR: fit the camera tone curve by
 quantile matching (no flat steps)

The per-photo look fitted its tone curve as the camera JPEG's median per
scene-luminance bin followed by isotonic pooling. On lens-corrected, sharpened
JPEGs of busy scenes neighbouring bins disagree by more than the gap between
them, so pooling produced flat steps: 13 of 31 segments on a CC0 Z 6II sample,
flat segments in 9 of 13 fitted Nikon Z / ILCE-7 samples. Each step maps a
range of scene tones to one output tone, which renders as posterised patches
with hard edges (issue #475, also #211, #454), and the conditional medians
flatten both ends of the curve.

Quantile matching (sorted scene quantiles against sorted JPEG quantiles) is
increasing by construction and insensitive to misregistration. On the same 13
files no fit has a flat segment, all still pass the gates, held-out RMS within
0.005 of before. Regression test: a misregistered synthetic JPEG.

 The JPEG's colourfulness also depends on brightness, as a camera's per-channel tone curve makes it: relative to a luminance-only curve, shadows were up to 1.4× more colourful and highlights above 0.85 luminance bleached to 0.1–0.3×, so warm sunlit rock rendered cream instead of white (+4 b* in the brightest fifth of the picture). A **chroma curve** (8 nodes over display luminance, `CameraTone::chroma`) is fitted to that ratio, including the bright pixels the colour and tone fits leave out, and applied in the finish stage right after the tone map (CPU and GPU), scaling chroma toward luminance so luminance is kept. It is kept only when it lowers the held-out error; smart previews carry it in their header, and older headers load without one.
 
-Matrix-only and matrix + table looks are each completed (tone curve, then chroma curve) and compared on the held-out pixels in gamma-encoded display values: in linear values a slightly missed bright rock outweighed a clearly wrong dark shirt. The acceptance gates below still use linear values. Luminance is fitted separately: 32 equal-population bins with robust median knots and pooled-adjacent-violators isotonic regression. The curve preserves black, cannot reverse, and extends beyond observed highlights with a bounded shoulder.
+Matrix-only and matrix + table looks are each completed (tone curve, then chroma curve) and compared on the held-out pixels in gamma-encoded display values: in linear values a slightly missed bright rock outweighed a clearly wrong dark shirt. The acceptance gates below still use linear values. Luminance is fitted separately, by quantile matching: knot *i* pairs the median of the *i*-th 1/32 of the sorted scene luminances with the median of the *i*-th 1/32 of the sorted JPEG luminances. A tone curve is monotone, so it maps each scene quantile to the same JPEG quantile; this needs no pixel-exact registration and is increasing by construction. The earlier fit (the JPEG's median per scene-luminance bin, then pooled-adjacent-violators isotonic regression) broke on lens-corrected, sharpened JPEGs of busy scenes: neighbouring bins disagreed by more than the gap between them, pooling turned them into flat steps (13 of 31 segments on a CC0 Z 6II forest shot, flat segments in 9 of 13 fitted Nikon Z / ILCE-7 samples) that rendered as posterised patches with hard edges, and regression toward the mean flattened both ends of the curve (issue #475, also #211, #454). With quantile matching none of those 13 fits has a flat segment and the held-out RMS is within 0.005 of before. The curve preserves black, cannot reverse, and extends beyond observed highlights with a bounded shoulder.
 
 The matrix is applied to scene-linear sensor pixels. The curve is carried in `SourceInfo` and applied in the pipeline finish stage, after exposure/WB/local edits. It is never baked into decoded luminance or clipped to JPEG precision. CPU and GPU use the same tone LUT. Contrast, whites and blacks adjust the starting look through the display-domain controls. JPEG neutral rendering and the existing DNG colour model are unchanged.

Subject: [PATCH 026/344] LRC-LIB-CATALOG-IMPORT: import catalog crops that
 have no HasCrop

Lightroom Classic catalogs store the crop edges and straighten angle in
their develop settings but, unlike XMP, never a HasCrop flag. The shared
crs mapper only applies a crop when crs:HasCrop is True, so every crop in
an imported catalog was dropped and reported as unmapped.

Infer HasCrop in the catalog path when any crop field is present. The XMP
path is unchanged: there HasCrop="False" with crop fields means the crop
is switched off.

Subject: [PATCH 028/344] Issue #272: Show in Explorer selects photos whose
 path has a space

Explorer only selects a file when the path after /select, is quoted. Rust's argument quoting wraps the whole "/select,C:\My Photos\a.jpg" switch in quotes as soon as the path has a space, so Explorer opened Documents. Build the switch as /select,"<path>" (backslashes, verbatim \\?\ and \\?\UNC\ prefixes stripped) and pass it with raw_arg on Windows. The library folder tree's context menu now shows the platform's reveal label too, and the Russian catalog gains "Show in Explorer" and "Show in File Manager".

Subject: [PATCH 030/344] LRC-LIB-CATALOG-IMPORT: carry catalog crops through
 the photo orientation

crs crop edges are normalized to the stored (unrotated) image, while
LightCraft's crop rectangle lives in the oriented frame. Catalog import
applied them unchanged, so crops on portrait photos (EXIF 6 or 8) landed
along the wrong axes.

Read Lightroom's orientation code (Adobe_images.orientation: AB, BC, CD,
DA and the mirrored BA, CB, DC, AD) and map the rectangle into the
oriented frame with Orientation::map_norm_rect; a mirrored orientation
also mirrors the straighten angle. The code comes from the catalog, so
this works while the originals are still missing at import time.

Subject: [PATCH 031/344] LR-PROF-CAMERACOLOR: fall back to the
 conditional-median tone fit when the quantile look misses the gates

Quantile matching fits the held-out pixels slightly worse than the conditional-median fit it replaced. On 7 of 1023 archive files (compacts, bridge cameras, early Micro Four Thirds) the look passed the acceptance gates only with the old curve, and the quantile curve lost it. The search now runs with the quantile fit first (all pixels, away from edges, with and without the camera profile) and, only when no look passes, runs again with the earlier conditional-median plus isotonic fit, restored as fit_tone_conditional. The gates are unchanged, so no file loses its look relative to the previous fit, and the quantile curve is used wherever it passes. Tests: the flat-step test stays; a synthetic photo whose JPEG carries per-pixel noise misses the gates with the quantile fit and passes with the fallback, and the order of the two is checked.

Subject: [PATCH 033/344] LRC-LIB-CATALOG-IMPORT: import straightened catalog
 crops as Lightroom shows them

With a CropAngle, Lightroom's CropLeft/CropTop and CropRight/CropBottom
are the top-left and bottom-right corners of the tilted crop on the
stored image, and its angle turns the other way to LightCraft's. The
import treated the edges as an axis-aligned rectangle in the rotated
frame and kept the angle's sign, so straightened crops came out the
wrong shape and size.

Carry the two corners through the orientation and then LightCraft's
straighten rotation (angle = -CropAngle, mirrored orientations flip it
back), using the stored image's aspect from fileWidth/fileHeight. On a
real catalog every one of 223 straightened crops now matches the frame
of Lightroom's export, and the content difference falls to that of
unstraightened crops.

Refs #483

Subject: [PATCH 034/344] LR-PROF-CAMERACOLOR: docs: archive-wide numbers for
 the tone fit and its fallback

The earlier text quoted the 13 investigation files (held-out RMS within 0.005); the whole CC0 archive shows a worst increase of 0.013 and 7 files that need the conditional-median fallback.

@@ -10,7 +10,7 @@ Two thirds of the usable pixels train a ridge-regularised 3×3 **chromaticity**
 
 The JPEG's colourfulness also depends on brightness, as a camera's per-channel tone curve makes it: relative to a luminance-only curve, shadows were up to 1.4× more colourful and highlights above 0.85 luminance bleached to 0.1–0.3×, so warm sunlit rock rendered cream instead of white (+4 b* in the brightest fifth of the picture). A **chroma curve** (8 nodes over display luminance, `CameraTone::chroma`) is fitted to that ratio, including the bright pixels the colour and tone fits leave out, and applied in the finish stage right after the tone map (CPU and GPU), scaling chroma toward luminance so luminance is kept. It is kept only when it lowers the held-out error; smart previews carry it in their header, and older headers load without one.
 
-Matrix-only and matrix + table looks are each completed (tone curve, then chroma curve) and compared on the held-out pixels in gamma-encoded display values: in linear values a slightly missed bright rock outweighed a clearly wrong dark shirt. The acceptance gates below still use linear values. Luminance is fitted separately, by quantile matching: knot *i* pairs the median of the *i*-th 1/32 of the sorted scene luminances with the median of the *i*-th 1/32 of the sorted JPEG luminances. A tone curve is monotone, so it maps each scene quantile to the same JPEG quantile; this needs no pixel-exact registration and is increasing by construction. The earlier fit (the JPEG's median per scene-luminance bin, then pooled-adjacent-violators isotonic regression) broke on lens-corrected, sharpened JPEGs of busy scenes: neighbouring bins disagreed by more than the gap between them, pooling turned them into flat steps (13 of 31 segments on a CC0 Z 6II forest shot, flat segments in 9 of 13 fitted Nikon Z / ILCE-7 samples) that rendered as posterised patches with hard edges, and regression toward the mean flattened both ends of the curve (issue #475, also #211, #454). With quantile matching none of those 13 fits has a flat segment and the held-out RMS is within 0.005 of before. The curve preserves black, cannot reverse, and extends beyond observed highlights with a bounded shoulder.

On the 1,781 files of the CC0 archive that render, 384 of the 1,023 accepted fits had at least one flat segment (1,073 in total, up to 14 of 31); with quantile matching 1,017 of the 1,023 have none. The quantile fit is slightly worse by least squares than the conditional medians (median held-out RMS 0.0331 against 0.0330, worst +0.013), and on 7 files (compacts, bridge cameras, early Micro Four Thirds) the look cleared the acceptance gates only with the old curve. The search therefore runs once with the quantile fit (all pixels, away from edges, with and without the camera profile's colour) and, only when no look passes, once more with the earlier conditional-median fit, kept as `fit_tone_conditional`; the gates are the same, so no file loses its look. Those 7 files render exactly as before, and 6 of them still have flat segments (35 in total). The curve preserves black, cannot reverse, and extends beyond observed highlights with a bounded shoulder.
 
 The matrix is applied to scene-linear sensor pixels. The curve is carried in `SourceInfo` and applied in the pipeline finish stage, after exposure/WB/local edits. It is never baked into decoded luminance or clipped to JPEG precision. CPU and GPU use the same tone LUT. Contrast, whites and blacks adjust the starting look through the display-domain controls. JPEG neutral rendering and the existing DNG colour model are unchanged.

Subject: [PATCH 036/344] LR-BEHAV-BG-TASKS: render export batches side by side
 (issue #496)

A batch ran its photos strictly one after another: each render is
row-parallel inside, but a photo's decode, its PNG/TIFF/WebP encode and
the wait on a GPU render are mostly serial, so a 32-core machine averaged
~9.5 busy cores on the CPU path and 1-2 with the GPU.

run_batch now keeps export_parallelism() photos in flight (cores / 4,
1..=4; one on wasm32) on scoped lane threads plus the calling thread.
Each holds an estimate of its working memory from a new export_gate
(twice the memory budget, separate from the decode gate it nests over),
so full-size 24 MP exports (~1.2 GB each) run two at a time by default.
Lanes run at most `lanes` photos past the last one placed, which also
bounds the finished files waiting for their turn. Paths, conflict
handling, original protection, writes, results and progress stay in
batch order (Placer), so the files are the same as one at a time; a
panic in a lane becomes that photo's error.

render_bench's batch scenario now goes through export_batch. 8 x 24 MP
JPEGs, 32 cores + RTX 4080 Laptop: CPU 3.87 s -> 2.35 s, GPU 4.21 s ->
1.82 s.

 - **Instant culling.** Opening a raw shows its embedded camera preview or cached render within ~0.1 s while the
   full render follows (~0.2–0.5 s for 24 MP). The next and previous photos are prepared in the background, so stepping
   through a shoot takes ~50 ms per photo.

Subject: [PATCH 038/344] Quit from the macOS menu: save settings and the
 library (and honour the unsaved-changes prompt) before exiting

std::process::exit skipped eframe's on_exit (ui.json, close_library) and the
may_close check, so changes still in memory could be lost on Cmd+Q.

Subject: [PATCH 046/344] LR-PROF-CAMERACOLOR: fit the camera look without
 clipped sensor pixels

A clipped raw pixel no longer records the scene's colour (one channel held at
the clip level turns a white sky magenta or blue through the matrix while the
camera JPEG keeps it white). As training pairs such pixels pulled the fitted
colour matrix toward grey and made the chroma curve remove colour at their
display luminance: on the CC0 Z 6II forest sample every chroma sample above
display luminance 0.36 was clipped, and the curve cut colourfulness there to
13-19%.

The proxies now carry a per-pixel clip mask (any covered sensor sample at or
above 0.99, aligned with the CR3 framing). The search on all pixels still
decides whether a photo gets a look and which attempt gives it; only that
attempt is refitted without the clipped pixels, and the look on all pixels is
kept when the refit misses the gates, so no photo loses its look or switches
attempt. Photos without a look get one when the search without the clipped
pixels finds it. Camera-profile pairs leave clipped pixels out too.

Render cache version 20 -> 22.

Subject: [PATCH 048/344] Issue #18: Windows MSI: finish dialog with Launch
 LightCraft

Interactive MSI installs now walk Welcome -> Ready to install -> progress
-> "Completed the LightCraft Setup Wizard" (Finish) with "LightCraft has
been installed" text and a checked-by-default "Launch LightCraft"
checkbox. Failure and cancellation end on WiX's standard FatalError /
UserExit pages; silent (/qn) and basic-UI (/passive) installs show no
dialogs and launch nothing.

- lightcraft.wxs: custom UI set = WixUI_Minimal without the licence page
  (MIT OR Apache-2.0 asks nothing of installers), maintenance dialogs for
  repair/remove, ARPNOMODIFY. Launch uses the Util extension's
  WixUnelevatedShellExec via Explorer (runs as the signed-in user, never
  elevated), Return="ignore", only when NOT Installed and the box is ticked.
- package.ps1: add WixToolset.UI/Util.wixext 5.0.2 to the global cache,
  pass -ext ... -culture en-us, and generate plain side/banner bitmaps
  (brand blue / white) so the MSI carries no WiX sample artwork.

Subject: [PATCH 050/344] Issue #399: Windows MSI: choose the install folder;
 upgrades keep it

The interactive installer now walks Welcome -> Destination Folder ->
Ready -> progress -> Completed (from #79). Destination Folder is WiX's
InstallDirDlg: Program Files\LightCraft by default, Change... browses,
and WixUIValidatePath refuses a folder that can't be used.

The chosen folder is written to HKLM\Software\LightCraft\InstallFolder
and read back (into PREVIOUSINSTALLFOLDER, then INSTALLFOLDER after
AppSearch unless given on the command line), so a major upgrade stays in
the user's folder instead of moving back to Program Files. Silent and
passive installs show no dialogs and take INSTALLFOLDER=....

packaging-lint fails if lightcraft.wxs loses the folder page, the
remembered folder or the completion page's launch action.

Tested with wix 5.0.2 (x64, arm64, x86 build) and msiexec /qn: upgrade
from 0.4.0 stays in Program Files; a custom INSTALLFOLDER install, an
upgrade without it (stays), an upgrade with another INSTALLFOLDER (moves
there), and uninstall (files, folder and registry value removed).

 Matrix-only and matrix + table looks are each completed (tone curve, then chroma curve) and compared on the held-out pixels in gamma-encoded display values: in linear values a slightly missed bright rock outweighed a clearly wrong dark shirt. The acceptance gates below still use linear values. Luminance is fitted separately, by quantile matching: knot *i* pairs the median of the *i*-th 1/32 of the sorted scene luminances with the median of the *i*-th 1/32 of the sorted JPEG luminances. A tone curve is monotone, so it maps each scene quantile to the same JPEG quantile; this needs no pixel-exact registration and is increasing by construction. The earlier fit (the JPEG's median per scene-luminance bin, then pooled-adjacent-violators isotonic regression) broke on lens-corrected, sharpened JPEGs of busy scenes: neighbouring bins disagreed by more than the gap between them, pooling turned them into flat steps (13 of 31 segments on a CC0 Z 6II forest shot) that rendered as posterised patches with hard edges, and regression toward the mean flattened both ends of the curve (issue #475, also #211, #454). On the 1,781 files of the CC0 archive that render, 384 of the 1,023 accepted fits had at least one flat segment (1,073 in total, up to 14 of 31); with quantile matching 1,017 of the 1,023 have none. The quantile fit is slightly worse by least squares than the conditional medians (median held-out RMS 0.0331 against 0.0330, worst +0.013), and on 7 files (compacts, bridge cameras, early Micro Four Thirds) the look cleared the acceptance gates only with the old curve. The search therefore runs once with the quantile fit (all pixels, away from edges, with and without the camera profile's colour) and, only when no look passes, once more with the earlier conditional-median fit, kept as `fit_tone_conditional`; the gates are the same, so no file loses its look. Those 7 files render exactly as before, and 6 of them still have flat segments (35 in total). The curve preserves black, cannot reverse, and extends beyond observed highlights with a bounded shoulder.
 
+**Clipped sensor pixels are left out of the fit.** A raw pixel with a channel at the clip level (0.99 of white, as in highlight reconstruction) no longer records the scene's colour: a white overcast sky with the green channel clipped and red and blue still rising comes out magenta or blue through the camera matrix, while the camera JPEG shows it white. As training pairs such pixels pulled the colour matrix toward grey and made the chroma curve remove colour at their display luminance. On the CC0 Z 6II forest sample (raw.pixls.us 4160) 24% of the proxy pixels are clipped; every chroma sample above display luminance 0.36 was one of them, and the curve cut colourfulness there to 13-19% (`[1.10, 0.94, 0.69, 0.19, 0.13, 0.19, 0.89, 1.0]`); the colours of the forest were muted by the matrix as well (spread of a\*/b\* on the proxy 63% of the JPEG's before the curve, 48% after). Over the 940 accepted looks with a chroma curve, 37% of the curve's downward pull came from clipped pixels whose JPEG pixel is near neutral, 53% in the 245 curves with a node below 0.4. The proxies therefore carry a clip mask (any sensor sample a proxy pixel covers, aligned with the CR3 framing), and the look is refitted without those pixels. The search on all pixels still decides whether a photo gets a look and which attempt (tone fit, profile or own colour, all pixels or away from edges) gives it; only that attempt is refitted, and when the refit misses the gates the look on all pixels is kept, so no photo loses its look or switches attempt. A photo without a look gets one when the search without the clipped pixels finds it. Camera-profile pairs (`calibrate`) leave clipped pixels out too. On the 1,781 files of the CC0 archive that render: 1,023 looks before, 1,027 after (none lost, 4 gained); 618 renders change (all with a look), 8 keep their earlier look through the fallback; median CIEDE2000 to the camera JPEG over the changed files 3.24 -> 3.07 (worse by more than 0.5 on 3, better by more than 0.5 on 59); median colourfulness (mean C\* of the render over the camera JPEG's) 0.973 -> 0.982 over the files with a look. The rest of the chroma curve's pull is mostly misregistration (a near-neutral JPEG pixel with a matching colour within one proxy pixel: 21%); a registration-free estimate of the curve (band means of colourfulness by each image's own luminance) brought the median colourfulness ratio to 0.999 but did not lower CIEDE2000, and is not used.
+
 The matrix is applied to scene-linear sensor pixels. The curve is carried in `SourceInfo` and applied in the pipeline finish stage, after exposure/WB/local edits. It is never baked into decoded luminance or clipped to JPEG precision. CPU and GPU use the same tone LUT. Contrast, whites and blacks adjust the starting look through the display-domain controls. JPEG neutral rendering and the existing DNG colour model are unchanged.
 
 One third of the pixels are held out from both fits. The combined model must reduce linear-display squared error by at least 30% and have per-channel RMS error ≤0.10 (0.055 rejected half of the public raw.pixls.us samples tried — ILCE-6400, -6700, -7M4 — whose fits were still 1.5–3× closer to the camera JPEG than the fallback and visibly better). When the fit on all pixels fails these gates, it is tried once more, with the same gates, on the pixels away from edges (where the 3×3 neighbourhood in either proxy spans a luminance ratio above 3). Many camera JPEGs are lens-corrected while the raw is not (Sony "Distortion Comp.: Auto", compacts and kit zooms), and on a detailed scene the misaligned edges alone fail the gate although the colours agree everywhere else (issue #232). The public ILCE-7RM2 samples (raw.pixls.us, one façade shot in seven compression/correction variants, 24–70 mm at 51 mm) are up to 15 px of 1440 off their JPEG; the six with distortion correction on missed the gate at held-out RMS 0.108–0.115 and opened in the grey neutral fallback, 13 L* too dark (ΔE76 16.6–16.9 against the JPEG after registering its geometry). Away from edges they pass at 0.049–0.052 and land at ΔE 3.7–3.8 with lightness within 0.6 L*, like the variant shot with distortion correction off (0.059 on all pixels, ΔE 3.9). The corpus GX80 kit-zoom sample (up to 63 px of 1440 off) passes too: 0.107 → 0.081, ΔE 19.1 → 7.9. Fits accepted on all pixels are unchanged. These are provisional acceptance gates, not a colour-accuracy certification. Monochrome, singular, unrelated, aspect-mismatched and poor-fitting references retain the documented fallback. Both fits use the same fixed proxy at every decode resolution.

+Mask brushing uses the UI command `tool.brush` through `engine.execute`. With `{}` it activates
+painting on the current mask. `{"new": true}` creates a separate brush mask; `{"op": "add"}` or

Subject: [PATCH 054/344] LR-PRE-AMOUNT: presets with the Grain group apply at
 any amount

scale_patch interpolated every JSON number as a float, including the
integer grain seed; the fractional seed failed to deserialize, merged()
failed and apply_partial returned the photo unchanged, so a preset with
the Grain group (in the default copy groups) did nothing at any amount
other than 100 %. Integer fields are now discrete like strings and
booleans; float settings and integer literals in preset files still
interpolate.

Subject: [PATCH 055/344] LRC-LIB-SMARTCOLL: group smart-album rule fields for
 the field menu

FIELDS is now listed in field-menu order, with TOP_LEVEL_FIELDS (rating,
pick flag, colour label, any searchable text) followed by FIELD_GROUPS
(Source, File, Date, Keywords & People, Description, Camera Info,
Location, Size, Develop, Assisted Culling). field_group / field_label
look a field up. album.ruleFields reports each field's group so agents
see the same structure as the editor. Rule ids are unchanged, so saved
smart albums keep working.

Subject: [PATCH 056/344] LRC-LIB-SMARTCOLL: field menu with submenus in the
 rule editor

The rule editor's field dropdown shows Rating, Pick Flag, Color Label and
Any Searchable Text at the top, then a separator and one submenu per
field group instead of one long flat list. The group holding the current
field is shown in bold. Picking a field from a submenu closes the menu
and keeps the operator only when the new field has it. Widget ids
ruleField / ruleFieldGroup / ruleFieldItem let the control channel drive
it, and group names join the i18n display-label gap report.

Subject: [PATCH 057/344] LRC-LIB-SMARTCOLL: Keyword Count, People and People
 Count rules

Smart albums can test how many keywords a photo has ("2 or more", "2 or
fewer", "exactly 2" via the number operators), who is in it (People: the
names on face regions, with the keyword operators) and how many people.

Photo::keyword_count counts a hierarchical keyword once and ignores case
and blank entries; Photo::people is the domain rule for "people in a
photo" (named face regions, trimmed, case-insensitive, pets and unnamed
faces excluded), now shared by the existing person filter. Keyword and
people rules share one name-list matcher.

Subject: [PATCH 058/344] LRC-LIB-SMARTCOLL: Shutter Speed rule
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Camera Info gains Shutter Speed, compared in seconds and written as the
camera shows it: "≤ 1/60" finds faster exposures, "between 1/1000 and
1/125" works, and a value that isn't a time matches nothing. The editor
takes it as text (1/250, 0.5, 2").

The shutter parser moves from engine export into the catalog
(parse_shutter_seconds) so export and the rule share it. A new
rules-editor test checks that every field × operator default value
makes a valid rule.

From 5fa77aa8782b07c4436f0049de224c9706adc0a6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Nathaniel Ledford <nate@nateledford.com>
Date: Fri, 9 Oct 2026 07:05:28 -0400
Subject: [PATCH 059/344] LRC-LIB-SMARTCOLL: file, size, location, description
 and develop rules

New smart-album fields, each in its menu group:
- Source: Copy Name, In a Stack
- File: File Extension (case and leading dot ignored), Video Duration
- Description: Alt Text
- Location: City, State / Province, Country (Location still matches all)
- Size: Long Edge, Short Edge, Aspect Ratio (landscape / portrait /
  square within 1 %), measured on the photo as shown (oriented and
  cropped)
- Develop: Cropped (crop or straighten), Treatment (color / monochrome)

Photo::extension, Photo::shown_size and Photo::is_cropped hold the
domain rules. A crop rectangle that is NaN or outside the frame is
clamped, so hostile settings can't produce NaN sizes.

Subject: [PATCH 060/344] LRC-LIB-SMARTCOLL: Any Searchable Text covers state,
 alt text, people, copy name

The any-text rule already searched the city and country but skipped the
state / province. It now also searches the alt text, the people on faces
and a virtual copy's name, so it agrees with the dedicated fields.

 fields

parity.md: LRC-LIB-SMARTCOLL lists the 47 fields by menu group and what
Classic has that is still missing. LR-LIB-SMARTALBUM no longer claims
"match-all only, no rule editor". What's New describes the grouped menu
and the new fields.

Only folders that hold imported photos are listed (browsed, deleted and demo photos don't count); every folder is a row of its own (`Users` → `me` → `Pictures`), and a folder that holds nothing itself and leads to one folder starts open; every level indents one step more than its parent however deep it goes: the whole sidebar (Albums, Local, By Date, Folders, Keywords) scrolls sideways when its widest row is wider than the panel (rows are measured one frame behind; Create Album and the counts stay at the visible edge); a name that does not fit ends in an ellipsis at the count (the full name on hover; a row asks for room for at most 140 pt of its name, so depth, not one long name, makes the sidebar scroll), as does the grid title; selection and hover bars end at the panel's edge; click makes the folder the source, like an album or a Local folder (its photos and those of the folders inside it fill the grid, titled “photos/travel”; the filter bar narrows it further; `library.source` `libraryFolder` + `path`; kept with the library's view), and its row is always opened into view; the shown folder follows a rename or move and their undo (engine-tested; the sidebar test covers rename), is dropped back to All Photos when it is removed or no longer holds a photo, and a smart album made from the view keeps it, also when its rules are edited (the editor has no folder field). Only a folder that shows exactly its own photos can be shown (not the startup disk, not `/Volumes`-like folders above disks, not an empty one). A row that would cover other disks' photos too (the startup disk, `/Volumes`, `/mnt`…) only opens.

Limits: names are compared as written (macOS `/Volumes/tokyo` vs `/Volumes/TOKYO` are two disks; `/Volumes/Macintosh HD/…` and `/…` two rows); no disk capacity / online status; no “include subfolders” switch (a folder always includes the ones inside it); creating a folder and moving photos between folders are not here |

Subject: [PATCH 062/344] LRC-LIB-SMARTCOLL: dot files have no extension; reuse
 CropGeometry::is_identity

From review: `.hidden` reported the extension "hidden", so it matched
"File Extension is hidden". A name whose only dot leads has no extension
now. Photo::is_cropped uses the existing CropGeometry::is_identity
instead of comparing against a default crop.

Subject: [PATCH 063/344] LRC-LIB-SMARTCOLL: stronger rule-editor tests

The field-menu UI test now clicks a group row instead of hovering it,
guarding against the combo popup closing on that click (touch input,
fast clicks). default_values_make_valid_rules now checks each default
value's shape (none, pair, choice, number, a real shutter time) as its
earlier commit message claimed; before, it only checked operators.

Subject: [PATCH 064/344] LRC-LIB-SMARTCOLL: readable, translated labels for
 smart-album choice values

Choice values showed their rule ids in English ("Copyright Status is
publicDomain", "Treatment is monochrome"), and Russian had no
translation for any of them. Kind::Choice now carries (id, label) pairs
like the operators: rules still store and accept the ids, and people
see the labels.

- catalog: choice_label(field, id); RuleSet::describe uses the label
  ("copyright status is public domain").
- engine: album.ruleFields keeps `choices` as ids and adds
  `choiceLabels` {id: label}. A test pins the ids, since the new tuple
  type would otherwise serialize as pairs.
- ui: i18n::choice_text is the one path for the editor's value dropdown
  and translated summaries. Aspect labels are "Landscape (wide)" /
  "Portrait (tall)", because the existing "Landscape" / "Portrait" keys
  mean scenery and people. Seven locales gain Video, Copyrighted, Public
  Domain, Unknown, the aspect labels and Square (ru also Raw). A test
  requires every choice label to be translated in every language.

Only folders that hold imported photos are listed (browsed, deleted and demo photos don't count); every folder is a row of its own (`Users` → `me` → `Pictures`), and a folder that holds nothing itself and leads to one folder starts open; every level indents one step more than its parent however deep it goes: the whole sidebar (Albums, Local, By Date, Folders, Keywords) scrolls sideways when its widest row is wider than the panel (rows are measured one frame behind; Create Album and the counts stay at the visible edge); a name that does not fit ends in an ellipsis at the count (the full name on hover; a row asks for room for at most 140 pt of its name, so depth, not one long name, makes the sidebar scroll), as does the grid title; selection and hover bars end at the panel's edge; click makes the folder the source, like an album or a Local folder (its photos and those of the folders inside it fill the grid, titled “photos/travel”; the filter bar narrows it further; `library.source` `libraryFolder` + `path`; kept with the library's view), and its row is always opened into view; the shown folder follows a rename or move and their undo (engine-tested; the sidebar test covers rename), is dropped back to All Photos when it is removed or no longer holds a photo, and a smart album made from the view keeps it, also when its rules are edited (the editor has no folder field). Only a folder that shows exactly its own photos can be shown (not the startup disk, not `/Volumes`-like folders above disks, not an empty one). A row that would cover other disks' photos too (the startup disk, `/Volumes`, `/mnt`…) only opens. Right-click (row or triangle): Rename Folder…, Move Folder To…, Show in Finder (on disk, photos relinked, as in Local) and Remove from Library… (asks; moves the folder's photos to Recently Deleted, one undo step, no file touched); a disk row offers Remove Disk from Library… (the command needs `disk: true` for a whole disk or a folder spanning several). Limits: names are compared as written (macOS `/Volumes/tokyo` vs `/Volumes/TOKYO` are two disks; `/Volumes/Macintosh HD/…` and `/…` two rows); no disk capacity / online status; no “include subfolders” switch (a folder always includes the ones inside it); creating a folder and moving photos between folders are not here |

Subject: [PATCH 066/344] LRC-LIB-SMARTCOLL: own labels for treatment Color and
 label None
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

From review: the treatment choice "Color" reused the shared "Color" key,
which zh-hans and ru translate as the colour noun (颜色, Цвет) for the
Color panel, giving "Treatment is colour". The colour-label choice
"None" was masculine in Spanish (Ninguno) next to the feminine
"etiqueta". They are now "In Color" and "No Label", translated in all
seven locales (彩色, Цветное, Sin etiqueta…).

Also moves display_label_gaps_are_reported's doc comment back onto it;
the new choice test had been inserted between them.

Subject: [PATCH 067/344] LRC-LIB-SMARTCOLL: yes/no rule values read Yes / No
 and mean what they say
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Yes/no fields (Has Edits, Cropped, Has GPS, Virtual Copy, In a Stack,
Best of Similar Shots) showed "true" / "false" in the editor and
summaries, and Russian had no translation for either. Matching read the
value with as_bool().unwrap_or(true), so an agent's "false" (a string)
or any other non-boolean counted as yes, while the summary said
"false".

- catalog: bool_value is the one reading. true / "yes" / "true" / 1 /
  no value mean yes; false / "no" / "false" / 0 mean no (strings in any
  case). Anything else matches nothing, and RuleSet::problems reports it
  ("`edited` is yes or no, not \"maybe\""), so album.createSmart and
  setRules refuse it. bool_label gives "Yes" / "No"; describe() reads
  "has edits is yes".
- ui: i18n::bool_text for the editor's dropdown and translated
  summaries (Ja / Nein…, existing keys in all locales). The editor
  stores the value back as a plain boolean.

Each disk is a row of its own and starts open: a drive letter, a Windows share (`\\server\share`, `\\?\UNC\…`, `\\wsl$\…`), a macOS share or disk (`/Volumes/tokyo`), a Linux mount (`/media`, `/run/media`, `/mnt`, gvfs `smb-share:…`, `/net/<host>`), NFS (`/Network/Servers/<host>`), else “This Computer” — told apart from the stored paths alone, so an offline share lists like a mounted one and the sidebar never waits on a network. Only folders that hold imported photos are listed (browsed, deleted and demo photos don't count); every folder is a row of its own (`Users` → `me` → `Pictures`), and a folder that holds nothing itself and leads to one folder starts open; every level indents one step more than its parent however deep it goes: the whole sidebar (Albums, Local, By Date, Folders, Keywords) scrolls sideways when its widest row is wider than the panel (rows are measured one frame behind; Create Album and the counts stay at the visible edge); a name that does not fit ends in an ellipsis at the count (the full name on hover; a row asks for room for at most 140 pt of its name, so depth, not one long name, makes the sidebar scroll), as does the grid title; selection and hover bars end at the panel's edge; click makes the folder the source, like an album or a Local folder (its photos and those of the folders inside it fill the grid, titled “photos/travel”; the filter bar narrows it further; `library.source` `libraryFolder` + `path`; kept with the library's view), and its row is always opened into view; the shown folder follows a rename or move and their undo (engine-tested; the sidebar test covers rename), is dropped back to All Photos when it is removed or no longer holds a photo, and a smart album made from the view keeps it, also when its rules are edited (the editor has no folder field). Only a folder that shows exactly its own photos can be shown (not the startup disk, not `/Volumes`-like folders above disks, not an empty one). A row that would cover other disks' photos too (the startup disk, `/Volumes`, `/mnt`…) only opens. Right-click (row or triangle): Rename Folder…, Move Folder To…, Show in Finder (on disk, photos relinked, as in Local) and Remove from Library… (asks; moves the folder's photos to Recently Deleted, one undo step, no file touched); a disk row offers Remove Disk from Library… (the command needs `disk: true` for a whole disk or a folder spanning several). Limits: names are compared as written (macOS `/Volumes/tokyo` vs `/Volumes/TOKYO` are two disks; `/Volumes/Macintosh HD/…` and `/…` two rows); no disk capacity / online status; no “include subfolders” switch (a folder always includes the ones inside it); creating a folder and moving photos between folders are not here |

Subject: [PATCH 069/344] LRC-LIB-SMARTCOLL: yes/no rule values accept 1.0 and
 0.0

From review: an agent sending a float (1.0) was refused while 1 was
accepted. Any number equal to 1 or 0 now reads as yes or no; other
numbers (2, 0.5, -1) are still refused.

Subject: [PATCH 070/344] LRC-LIB-SMARTCOLL: library.filter checks its rule set

From review: album.createSmart and setRules refuse an unknown field, a
missing operator or a yes/no value that is neither yes nor no, but
library.filter applied such a rule set and showed an empty grid. It now
returns the same problems as an error and leaves the current filter in
place.

Subject: [PATCH 071/344] LRC-LIB-SMARTCOLL: rule editor keeps an unreadable
 yes/no value

From review: the editor rewrote a yes/no value that was neither yes nor
no (written by an agent or an older version) to true on every frame, so
the dialog never showed the problem and OK silently saved "Yes",
turning a rule that matched nothing into one that matches. The dropdown
now shows such a value as written and changes it only when the user
picks Yes or No. Until then the dialog reports the problem and OK
refuses it.

Yes/no rule values used the shared "Yes" / "No" messages, which
Japanese translates as the answers はい / いいえ. As the value of a
condition ("編集あり … いいえ") that reads oddly; あり / なし ("has" /
"has none") is natural.

Messages are keyed by their English text, so the same English word
can't carry two Japanese translations. A small context lookup fixes
that: tr_ctx_in tries "<context>|<source>" first and falls back to the
plain message. Only ja.json adds "smart album value|Yes" / "|No"; the
shared Yes / No (はい / いいえ) stay as they are elsewhere, and every
other language keeps its plain Ja / Sí / Да. A test rejects contextual
keys that name no real value, so a typo can't silently fall back.

 `tr_format!` is generated by `crates/ui-egui/build.rs`: one arm per English message, which formats
 the active language's translation with `format!` (English is the fallback arm). Every catalog's

Subject: [PATCH 076/344] LRC-LIB-SMARTCOLL: Megapixels rule counts the cropped
 photo
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Megapixels used the original width × height, while Long Edge, Short
Edge and Aspect Ratio measure the photo as shown (oriented and
cropped). One rule set could disagree with itself: a 24 MP photo
cropped to a 4000 × 4000 square had a long edge of 4000 but still
counted as 24 MP. Megapixels now uses Photo::shown_size too, so that
crop is 16 MP. Rotation doesn't change it.

Behaviour change: a smart album with a Megapixels rule can now leave
out heavily cropped photos it used to include.

Only folders that hold imported photos are listed (browsed, deleted and demo photos don't count); every folder is a row of its own (`Users` → `me` → `Pictures`), and a folder that holds nothing itself and leads to one folder starts open; every level indents one step more than its parent however deep it goes: the whole sidebar (Albums, Local, By Date, Folders, Keywords) scrolls sideways when its widest row is wider than the panel (rows are measured one frame behind; Create Album and the counts stay at the visible edge); a name that does not fit ends in an ellipsis at the count (the full name on hover; a row asks for room for at most 140 pt of its name, so depth, not one long name, makes the sidebar scroll), as does the grid title; selection and hover bars end at the panel's edge; click makes the folder the source, like an album or a Local folder (its photos and those of the folders inside it fill the grid, titled “photos/travel”; the filter bar narrows it further; `library.source` `libraryFolder` + `path`; kept with the library's view), and its row is always opened into view; the shown folder follows a rename or move and their undo (engine-tested; the sidebar test covers rename), is dropped back to All Photos when it is removed or no longer holds a photo, and a smart album made from the view keeps it, also when its rules are edited (the editor has no folder field). Only a folder that shows exactly its own photos can be shown (not the startup disk, not `/Volumes`-like folders above disks, not an empty one). A row that would cover other disks' photos too (the startup disk, `/Volumes`, `/mnt`…) only opens. Right-click (row or triangle): Rename Folder…, Move Folder To…, Show in Finder (on disk, photos relinked, as in Local) and Remove from Library… (asks; moves the folder's photos to Recently Deleted, one undo step, no file touched); a disk row offers Remove Disk from Library… (the command needs `disk: true` for a whole disk or a folder spanning several). Limits: names are compared as written (macOS `/Volumes/tokyo` vs `/Volumes/TOKYO` are two disks; `/Volumes/Macintosh HD/…` and `/…` two rows); no disk capacity / online status; no “include subfolders” switch (a folder always includes the ones inside it); creating a folder and moving photos between folders are not here |

Crash fix. A huge or negative "in the last N" from an agent or a saved
file ({"n": -1e30}) panicked with "attempt to negate with overflow" in
debug builds. Release builds wrapped instead, and the rule matched the
wrong photos.

- last_secs: a zero, negative, NaN or unreadable N is None (the rule
  matches nothing, either way round). Spans are capped at 10,000 years,
  which means "ever": every dated photo is in it and none is outside it.
- dates::shift_iso: checked_add, and a result outside years 0000–9999
  (which iso_seconds can't read back) is None. It never overflows,
  whatever the seconds.

Regression tests cover both and panicked before the fix.

Subject: [PATCH 079/344] LR-LIB-CAPTURETIME: refuse capture-time shifts beyond
 10,000 years

Crash fix. photo.setCaptureTime turned `shift` / `hours` into seconds
with a saturating cast and added them with plain `+`. A shift of 1e30
seconds overflowed. Only the last-resort panic guard caught it,
reporting "failed unexpectedly: attempt to add with overflow". A large
but not overflowing shift reached the catalog as a date like
-114079456599-08-23.

A shift that isn't a number or is more than 10,000 years either way is
now refused up front ("the shift is more than 10,000 years") and
nothing changes. The regression test requires that message, so a
caught panic no longer passes.

Subject: [PATCH 080/344] LRC-LIB-SMARTCOLL: check every smart-album rule value
 against its field
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

RuleSet::problems only checked that a field and operator exist (and,
lately, yes/no values). Any other value was accepted and silently
matched nothing or everything: "Rating ≥ abc", a date of "banana" or
"2026-13", "Color Label isn't pink" (everything), "Title contains ''"
(everything), "in the last 0 days", an album that is gone.

RuleSet::check(&Catalog) -> Vec<Problem> replaces it. Each Problem has
the rule's position (path [1, 0]; shown as "rule 2.1: …"), so the
editor can point at the row. It checks:
- numbers (rating 0–5), shutter speeds (1/250, 2)
- dates: 2026, 2026-08, 2026-08-14 or a full time; real dates only
- between: two bounds; dates in order (2026-08-14 … 2026-08 is fine)
- in the last: N > 0 and a known unit
- choices: the ids, the flag's picked / rejected, a colour label's
  custom name (from the catalog), copyright-status spellings
- text and keyword / people rules: something to look for, or "is empty"
- album: exists and is a plain album
- no empty groups (an empty rule list at the top stays "all photos")

album.createSmart, album.setRules and library.filter report every
problem. The editor's date defaults move from "" (which, as "between",
matched every dated photo) to the current year, and its test now
requires every default to be valid, except text and album rules, which
wait for input.

Each disk is a row of its own and starts open: a drive letter, a Windows share (`\\server\share`, `\\?\UNC\…`, `\\wsl$\…`), a macOS share or disk (`/Volumes/tokyo`), a Linux mount (`/media`, `/run/media`, `/mnt`, gvfs `smb-share:…`, `/net/<host>`), NFS (`/Network/Servers/<host>`), else “This Computer” — told apart from the stored paths alone, so an offline share lists like a mounted one and the sidebar never waits on a network. Only folders that hold imported photos are listed (browsed, deleted and demo photos don't count); every folder is a row of its own (`Users` → `me` → `Pictures`), and a folder that holds nothing itself and leads to one folder starts open; every level indents one step more than its parent however deep it goes: the whole sidebar (Albums, Local, By Date, Folders, Keywords) scrolls sideways when its widest row is wider than the panel (rows are measured one frame behind; Create Album and the counts stay at the visible edge); a name that does not fit ends in an ellipsis at the count (the full name on hover; a row asks for room for at most 140 pt of its name, so depth, not one long name, makes the sidebar scroll), as does the grid title; selection and hover bars end at the panel's edge; click makes the folder the source, like an album or a Local folder (its photos and those of the folders inside it fill the grid, titled “photos/travel”; the filter bar narrows it further; `library.source` `libraryFolder` + `path`; kept with the library's view), and its row is always opened into view; the shown folder follows a rename or move and their undo (engine-tested; the sidebar test covers rename), is dropped back to All Photos when it is removed or no longer holds a photo, and a smart album made from the view keeps it, also when its rules are edited (the editor has no folder field). Only a folder that shows exactly its own photos can be shown (not the startup disk, not `/Volumes`-like folders above disks, not an empty one). A row that would cover other disks' photos too (the startup disk, `/Volumes`, `/mnt`…) only opens. Right-click (row or triangle): Rename Folder…, Move Folder To…, Show in Finder (on disk, photos relinked, as in Local) and Remove from Library… (asks; moves the folder's photos to Recently Deleted, one undo step, no file touched); a disk row offers Remove Disk from Library… (the command needs `disk: true` for a whole disk or a folder spanning several). Limits: names are compared as written (macOS `/Volumes/tokyo` vs `/Volumes/TOKYO` are two disks; `/Volumes/Macintosh HD/…` and `/…` two rows); no disk capacity / online status; no “include subfolders” switch (a folder always includes the ones inside it); creating a folder and moving photos between folders are not here |

Subject: [PATCH 082/344] LRC-LIB-SMARTCOLL: rule check and matcher agree on
 units, ratings and label names
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

From review of the value checks (false rejections and one silent
mismatch):
- In-the-last units: one table (unit_secs) for check and matcher. Any
  case, singular or plural; no unit means days. An unknown unit is
  refused and now matches nothing, where the matcher used to read it as
  days, so "week" meant one day.
- Rating: refused only when no rating 0–5 could meet the rule, tested
  with the matcher's own comparison ("is 9", "≥ 7", "between 6 and 9").
  "< 6" is broad but valid. Message: "no rating 0–5 is ≥ 7".
- Catalog::label_from_name compares with Unicode lowercase, as rules
  do, so a custom label "Été" is found as "été".
- Empty text hints at the operator that fits: "isn't empty" for
  isn't / doesn't contain, "is empty" otherwise.

Subject: [PATCH 083/344] LRC-LIB-SMARTCOLL: a stale album rule no longer drops
 the filter bar from the view
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

From review: view_rules merged the filter bar's settings onto a smart
album's rules through merge_rules, which now also checks the rules, and
fell back to the bare album rules on any problem. A smart album testing
an album that was later deleted therefore lost the filter bar (e.g.
Rating ≥ 3) from Create Smart Album from Filter and the dialog's count,
without a word.

merge_filter does the merge alone; merge_rules is merge_filter plus the
check, for album.createSmart / setRules. view_rules uses merge_filter.

From 7b7807b499a55c2cb7cc89ffbca4d6a9e3d362e8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Nathaniel Ledford <nate@nateledford.com>
Date: Fri, 9 Oct 2026 08:43:31 -0400
Subject: [PATCH 084/344] LRC-LIB-SMARTCOLL: rule editor marks bad rules,
 blocks OK and picks albums from a list
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The dialog showed only the first problem, in place of the match count,
without saying which rule it was about. OK stayed clickable, and an
edit renamed the album before its rules were refused.

- Each rule with a problem gets the message right under its row, in the
  caution colour; inside groups too, and on an empty group's frame. The
  rules_editor::Env carries the problems from RuleSet::check, and each
  row finds its own by path. Markers register `ruleProblem:<salt>`.
- The summary reads "Fix the marked rules to save this album." and OK is
  disabled while any problem remains.
- confirm_dialog refuses problems before anything changes (not even the
  name), and the control channel's ui.dialog.confirm keeps the editor
  open on that error, as the button does.
- Album is its own field kind: is / isn't only (it was a number field
  that offered ≥ and between). It picks its album from a list of the
  plain albums (`ruleAlbum:` / `ruleAlbumItem:<id>:`) and starts with
  none chosen ("choose an album"). album.ruleFields reports kind "album".
- Found while testing: the number editor's spinner clamped a stored
  value outside its range as soon as it was drawn, so "Rating is 9"
  quietly became "Rating is 5". It now uses
  clamp_existing_to_range(false): the range limits dragging, and a
  stored value stays as it is, marked by the check.

New labels (Choose an album…, No albums yet, Fix the marked rules…) are
translated in all seven locales.

Each disk is a row of its own and starts open: a drive letter, a Windows share (`\\server\share`, `\\?\UNC\…`, `\\wsl$\…`), a macOS share or disk (`/Volumes/tokyo`), a Linux mount (`/media`, `/run/media`, `/mnt`, gvfs `smb-share:…`, `/net/<host>`), NFS (`/Network/Servers/<host>`), else “This Computer” — told apart from the stored paths alone, so an offline share lists like a mounted one and the sidebar never waits on a network. Only folders that hold imported photos are listed (browsed, deleted and demo photos don't count); every folder is a row of its own (`Users` → `me` → `Pictures`), and a folder that holds nothing itself and leads to one folder starts open; every level indents one step more than its parent however deep it goes: the whole sidebar (Albums, Local, By Date, Folders, Keywords) scrolls sideways when its widest row is wider than the panel (rows are measured one frame behind; Create Album and the counts stay at the visible edge); a name that does not fit ends in an ellipsis at the count (the full name on hover; a row asks for room for at most 140 pt of its name, so depth, not one long name, makes the sidebar scroll), as does the grid title; selection and hover bars end at the panel's edge; click makes the folder the source, like an album or a Local folder (its photos and those of the folders inside it fill the grid, titled “photos/travel”; the filter bar narrows it further; `library.source` `libraryFolder` + `path`; kept with the library's view), and its row is always opened into view; the shown folder follows a rename or move and their undo (engine-tested; the sidebar test covers rename), is dropped back to All Photos when it is removed or no longer holds a photo, and a smart album made from the view keeps it, also when its rules are edited (the editor has no folder field). Only a folder that shows exactly its own photos can be shown (not the startup disk, not `/Volumes`-like folders above disks, not an empty one). A row that would cover other disks' photos too (the startup disk, `/Volumes`, `/mnt`…) only opens. Right-click (row or triangle): Rename Folder…, Move Folder To…, Show in Finder (on disk, photos relinked, as in Local) and Remove from Library… (asks; moves the folder's photos to Recently Deleted, one undo step, no file touched); a disk row offers Remove Disk from Library… (the command needs `disk: true` for a whole disk or a folder spanning several). Limits: names are compared as written (macOS `/Volumes/tokyo` vs `/Volumes/TOKYO` are two disks; `/Volumes/Macintosh HD/…` and `/…` two rows); no disk capacity / online status; no “include subfolders” switch (a folder always includes the ones inside it); creating a folder and moving photos between folders are not here |

Subject: [PATCH 086/344] LRC-LIB-SMARTCOLL: one reading of Album rule ids;
 folders refused; old album operators upgraded
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

From review:
- rules::album_rule_id reads an Album rule's id as a whole number,
  written as 3, 3.0 or "3". The check, the matcher and the editor now
  agree; the picker showed a valid "1" as unset.
- A folder holds albums, not photos, so an Album rule naming one matched
  nothing. The check now refuses it ("is a folder; choose an album in
  it").
- Smart albums saved while Album was a number field could use ≥, ≤ or
  between, which the matcher always read as "isn't". Since Album became
  is / isn't only, editing or filtering with them was refused.
  RuleSet::upgrade rewrites them to the "isn't" they meant; merge_filter
  (album.createSmart / setRules) and library.filter apply it before
  checking.

Subject: [PATCH 087/344] LRC-LIB-SMARTCOLL: rule editor never rewrites a rule
 by drawing it

From review: the number spinner was fixed, but the "in the last" spinner
still clamped a stored N on first draw ("0 days" became 1, hiding the
problem and saving a different rule; 20,000 became 10,000). Values
that weren't an {n, unit} object or a two-item "between" were replaced
by the defaults as soon as they were drawn.

- In the last: shown as stored ({n, unit}, any case, or a plain number
  of days) and written only when the N or the unit is changed, with
  clamp_existing_to_range(false).
- Between: anything but a pair is shown as the default pair but kept
  until one bound is edited, so the check marks it. A slice pattern
  replaces the [0] / [1] indexing.
- Album picker: reads the id as the catalog does; names albums with
  their folder ("Trips / Rome") and sorts them by name.
- Opening an album's rules applies RuleSet::upgrade.
- New tests: drawing leaves five unreadable values as stored and marks
  the three that can't match, and an edit with bad rules doesn't rename
  the album (neither OK nor confirm). The parity note no longer
  overclaims.

Each disk is a row of its own and starts open: a drive letter, a Windows share (`\\server\share`, `\\?\UNC\…`, `\\wsl$\…`), a macOS share or disk (`/Volumes/tokyo`), a Linux mount (`/media`, `/run/media`, `/mnt`, gvfs `smb-share:…`, `/net/<host>`), NFS (`/Network/Servers/<host>`), else “This Computer” — told apart from the stored paths alone, so an offline share lists like a mounted one and the sidebar never waits on a network. Only folders that hold imported photos are listed (browsed, deleted and demo photos don't count); every folder is a row of its own (`Users` → `me` → `Pictures`), and a folder that holds nothing itself and leads to one folder starts open; every level indents one step more than its parent however deep it goes: the whole sidebar (Albums, Local, By Date, Folders, Keywords) scrolls sideways when its widest row is wider than the panel (rows are measured one frame behind; Create Album and the counts stay at the visible edge); a name that does not fit ends in an ellipsis at the count (the full name on hover; a row asks for room for at most 140 pt of its name, so depth, not one long name, makes the sidebar scroll), as does the grid title; selection and hover bars end at the panel's edge; click makes the folder the source, like an album or a Local folder (its photos and those of the folders inside it fill the grid, titled “photos/travel”; the filter bar narrows it further; `library.source` `libraryFolder` + `path`; kept with the library's view), and its row is always opened into view; the shown folder follows a rename or move and their undo (engine-tested; the sidebar test covers rename), is dropped back to All Photos when it is removed or no longer holds a photo, and a smart album made from the view keeps it, also when its rules are edited (the editor has no folder field). Only a folder that shows exactly its own photos can be shown (not the startup disk, not `/Volumes`-like folders above disks, not an empty one). A row that would cover other disks' photos too (the startup disk, `/Volumes`, `/mnt`…) only opens. Right-click (row or triangle): Rename Folder…, Move Folder To…, Show in Finder (on disk, photos relinked, as in Local) and Remove from Library… (asks; moves the folder's photos to Recently Deleted, one undo step, no file touched); a disk row offers Remove Disk from Library… (the command needs `disk: true` for a whole disk or a folder spanning several). Limits: names are compared as written (macOS `/Volumes/tokyo` vs `/Volumes/TOKYO` are two disks; `/Volumes/Macintosh HD/…` and `/…` two rows); no disk capacity / online status; no “include subfolders” switch (a folder always includes the ones inside it); creating a folder and moving photos between folders are not here |

Subject: [PATCH 088/344] LRC-LIB-SMARTCOLL: rename and rules of a smart album
 in one step

The rule editor renamed an album (album.rename) and then set its rules
(album.setRules) as two commits. If the second failed (refused rules
before the dialog checked them, or a save error), the album kept the new
name without the rules, and undo needed two steps.

album.setRules takes an optional `name` (blank keeps the album's) and
commits the rename and the rules as one Op::Batch: both or neither, one
undo step. The dialog edits through it.

Subject: [PATCH 089/344] LRC-LIB-SMARTCOLL: report saved smart albums whose
 rules no longer check

Rules are checked when they are made, but a saved smart album can go
bad later. The usual case is a rule testing an album that is then
deleted; it silently matches nothing.

Catalog::smart_album_problems(id) checks a saved album's rules as they
are now (RuleSet::upgrade, then RuleSet::check). It is empty for a sound
smart album, a plain album or no album. albums.list reports `problems`
for every smart album, e.g. ["rule 1: no album 8"].

Subject: [PATCH 090/344] LRC-LIB-SMARTCOLL: mark smart albums with problems in
 the sidebar
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

A smart album whose rules no longer check shows ⚠ before its name
(`albumProblem:<id>`). Its tooltip adds "Some rules need fixing (Edit
Smart Album…):" and each problem under the rule summary, in one
tooltip. i18n::problem_text is the one place problems become display
text. The new line is translated in all seven locales.

Also: the album menu's Edit Smart Album… built the dialog itself and
skipped RuleSet::upgrade. It now goes through dialog.smartAlbum like
every other way in.

Only folders that hold imported photos are listed (browsed, deleted and demo photos don't count); every folder is a row of its own (`Users` → `me` → `Pictures`), and a folder that holds nothing itself and leads to one folder starts open; every level indents one step more than its parent however deep it goes: the whole sidebar (Albums, Local, By Date, Folders, Keywords) scrolls sideways when its widest row is wider than the panel (rows are measured one frame behind; Create Album and the counts stay at the visible edge); a name that does not fit ends in an ellipsis at the count (the full name on hover; a row asks for room for at most 140 pt of its name, so depth, not one long name, makes the sidebar scroll), as does the grid title; selection and hover bars end at the panel's edge; click makes the folder the source, like an album or a Local folder (its photos and those of the folders inside it fill the grid, titled “photos/travel”; the filter bar narrows it further; `library.source` `libraryFolder` + `path`; kept with the library's view), and its row is always opened into view; the shown folder follows a rename or move and their undo (engine-tested; the sidebar test covers rename), is dropped back to All Photos when it is removed or no longer holds a photo, and a smart album made from the view keeps it, also when its rules are edited (the editor has no folder field). Only a folder that shows exactly its own photos can be shown (not the startup disk, not `/Volumes`-like folders above disks, not an empty one). A row that would cover other disks' photos too (the startup disk, `/Volumes`, `/mnt`…) only opens. Right-click (row or triangle): Rename Folder…, Move Folder To…, Show in Finder (on disk, photos relinked, as in Local) and Remove from Library… (asks; moves the folder's photos to Recently Deleted, one undo step, no file touched); a disk row offers Remove Disk from Library… (the command needs `disk: true` for a whole disk or a folder spanning several). Limits: names are compared as written (macOS `/Volumes/tokyo` vs `/Volumes/TOKYO` are two disks; `/Volumes/Macintosh HD/…` and `/…` two rows); no disk capacity / online status; no “include subfolders” switch (a folder always includes the ones inside it); creating a folder and moving photos between folders are not here |

Subject: [PATCH 091/344] LRC-LIB-SMARTCOLL: rule problems name their field and
 kind of issue
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

A Problem carried only an English sentence with the field's id
("`title` needs something to look for…"), which the editor showed
as-is in every language.

Problem now also has `field` (None for a group) and `issue`, an Issue
kind with a short English text for translation catalogs (Issue::text,
Issue::ALL). The English `message` and the `rule 2.1: …` Display stay
as they were for agents and logs. A test covers the field and issue of
each kind of problem and that each issue reads differently.

From f61dc889c667cb4af9952b70a0fc000584b8593f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Nathaniel Ledford <nate@nateledford.com>
Date: Fri, 9 Oct 2026 09:13:30 -0400
Subject: [PATCH 092/344] LRC-LIB-SMARTCOLL: show rule problems in the editor's
 language
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

i18n::problem_text shows a problem as the field's label and the issue
in the current language ("Titel: braucht einen Suchbegriff (oder „ist
leer“)"); problem_line puts the rule's position first ("#2 Title: …")
for the sidebar's tooltip. The editor's row notes and the sidebar use
them.

All 20 issue texts are translated in the seven locales, each quoting
its own operator names ("ist leer", «пусто», 「が空」), with あり / なし
for Japanese yes/no. A test requires every issue to be translated in
every language and checks English and German output.

Also corrects the zh-hant sidebar tooltip to name the menu as it is
(編輯智慧型相簿…).

Each disk is a row of its own and starts open: a drive letter, a Windows share (`\\server\share`, `\\?\UNC\…`, `\\wsl$\…`), a macOS share or disk (`/Volumes/tokyo`), a Linux mount (`/media`, `/run/media`, `/mnt`, gvfs `smb-share:…`, `/net/<host>`), NFS (`/Network/Servers/<host>`), else “This Computer” — told apart from the stored paths alone, so an offline share lists like a mounted one and the sidebar never waits on a network. Only folders that hold imported photos are listed (browsed, deleted and demo photos don't count); every folder is a row of its own (`Users` → `me` → `Pictures`), and a folder that holds nothing itself and leads to one folder starts open; every level indents one step more than its parent however deep it goes: the whole sidebar (Albums, Local, By Date, Folders, Keywords) scrolls sideways when its widest row is wider than the panel (rows are measured one frame behind; Create Album and the counts stay at the visible edge); a name that does not fit ends in an ellipsis at the count (the full name on hover; a row asks for room for at most 140 pt of its name, so depth, not one long name, makes the sidebar scroll), as does the grid title; selection and hover bars end at the panel's edge; click makes the folder the source, like an album or a Local folder (its photos and those of the folders inside it fill the grid, titled “photos/travel”; the filter bar narrows it further; `library.source` `libraryFolder` + `path`; kept with the library's view), and its row is always opened into view; the shown folder follows a rename or move and their undo (engine-tested; the sidebar test covers rename), is dropped back to All Photos when it is removed or no longer holds a photo, and a smart album made from the view keeps it, also when its rules are edited (the editor has no folder field). Only a folder that shows exactly its own photos can be shown (not the startup disk, not `/Volumes`-like folders above disks, not an empty one). A row that would cover other disks' photos too (the startup disk, `/Volumes`, `/mnt`…) only opens. Right-click (row or triangle): Rename Folder…, Move Folder To…, Show in Finder (on disk, photos relinked, as in Local) and Remove from Library… (asks; moves the folder's photos to Recently Deleted, one undo step, no file touched); a disk row offers Remove Disk from Library… (the command needs `disk: true` for a whole disk or a folder spanning several). Limits: names are compared as written (macOS `/Volumes/tokyo` vs `/Volumes/TOKYO` are two disks; `/Volumes/Macintosh HD/…` and `/…` two rows); no disk capacity / online status; no “include subfolders” switch (a folder always includes the ones inside it); creating a folder and moving photos between folders are not here |

   way round, "in the last 0 days", a colour label that doesn't exist, "contains" with nothing to look for, an
   album that is gone or smart, or an empty group is reported with its rule ("rule 2.1: rating is 0–5, not 9")
   instead of quietly matching nothing or everything. New date rules start at the current year.
+- Rule problems are shown in your language and name the field the way the menu does ("Title: needs something to look
+  for").
 - A smart album whose rules no longer check (an album they test was deleted) is marked ⚠ in the sidebar; its tooltip
   says what to fix, and `albums.list` reports `problems`.
 - Editing a smart album's name and rules is one step: both or neither, and one undo takes both back

Subject: [PATCH 093/344] LRC-LIB-SMARTCOLL: hints name each field's own
 operator; Russian operator labels
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

From review:
- Keywords and People say "are empty" / "aren't empty", but their
  empty-text hint said "is empty". New issues NeedsNamesOrEmpty /
  NeedsNamesOrNotEmpty quote their operators, translated in all seven
  locales with each locale's own label (sind leer, están vacíos, が空…).
- Russian had none of the 20 smart-album operator labels, so its
  editor showed every operator in English and the new hints named
  «пусто», which wasn't on screen. All 20 are translated now, and a
  test requires every operator label in every language.
- Japanese and Chinese join a field and its problem with the full-width
  colon their catalogs use ("タイトル：…").

Subject: [PATCH 094/344] LRC-LIB-SMARTCOLL: one reading of rule dates; refuse
 time zones
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Some date values passed the check but never matched. "2026-10-01 10:00"
(a space, not T) and "…T10:00:00+02:00" (a zone) were accepted, while
the matcher compared them as written against capture times stored as
"2026-10-01T10:00:00".

rules::rule_date is now the one reading for the check and the matcher:
2026, 2026-08, 2026-08-14, then T10 / T10:00 / T10:00:00, with a space
working as the T, and a real date and time (25 o'clock and minute 61 are
refused too). A time zone or fractions of a second can never match a
local, whole-second capture time. They get their own issue,
DateWithZone, translated in all seven locales, instead of matching
nothing silently.

Only folders that hold imported photos are listed (browsed, deleted and demo photos don't count); every folder is a row of its own (`Users` → `me` → `Pictures`), and a folder that holds nothing itself and leads to one folder starts open; every level indents one step more than its parent however deep it goes: the whole sidebar (Albums, Local, By Date, Folders, Keywords) scrolls sideways when its widest row is wider than the panel (rows are measured one frame behind; Create Album and the counts stay at the visible edge); a name that does not fit ends in an ellipsis at the count (the full name on hover; a row asks for room for at most 140 pt of its name, so depth, not one long name, makes the sidebar scroll), as does the grid title; selection and hover bars end at the panel's edge; click makes the folder the source, like an album or a Local folder (its photos and those of the folders inside it fill the grid, titled “photos/travel”; the filter bar narrows it further; `library.source` `libraryFolder` + `path`; kept with the library's view), and its row is always opened into view; the shown folder follows a rename or move and their undo (engine-tested; the sidebar test covers rename), is dropped back to All Photos when it is removed or no longer holds a photo, and a smart album made from the view keeps it, also when its rules are edited (the editor has no folder field). Only a folder that shows exactly its own photos can be shown (not the startup disk, not `/Volumes`-like folders above disks, not an empty one). A row that would cover other disks' photos too (the startup disk, `/Volumes`, `/mnt`…) only opens. Right-click (row or triangle): Rename Folder…, Move Folder To…, Show in Finder (on disk, photos relinked, as in Local) and Remove from Library… (asks; moves the folder's photos to Recently Deleted, one undo step, no file touched); a disk row offers Remove Disk from Library… (the command needs `disk: true` for a whole disk or a folder spanning several). Limits: names are compared as written (macOS `/Volumes/tokyo` vs `/Volumes/TOKYO` are two disks; `/Volumes/Macintosh HD/…` and `/…` two rows); no disk capacity / online status; no “include subfolders” switch (a folder always includes the ones inside it); creating a folder and moving photos between folders are not here |

Subject: [PATCH 095/344] LRC-LIB-SMARTCOLL: a standalone date picker component
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

crates/ui-egui/src/date_picker.rs: a calendar button that opens a popup
to pick a year, a month or a day. egui_extras' DatePickerButton was
considered and left: its weekday names, month names, "Week", "Cancel"
and "Save" are hard-coded English, it only picks whole days, and it
needs a Save click and the jiff crate.

- PickedDate { year, month?, day? } keeps a value's precision (2026
  means the whole year): parse / iso / precision / first_day /
  last_day. days_in_month, a Monday-first month_grid and in_bounds (any
  day of the value in range) are pure and unit-tested.
- DatePicker::new(id, &mut Option<PickedDate>) with precisions(), min(),
  max() and today(). It opens on the value at its precision (else
  today, on days) and returns a response that is changed() when a date
  is picked. Out-of-range cells are disabled.
- It follows the UI language: Year / Month / Day, month titles and
  labels from the date headings (date_group_label), and weekday headers
  (Mo…Su) translated in all seven locales with "Pick a date". A test
  requires them.
- Widget ids for tests and agents: datePicker:<id>,
  datePickerPrecision:<p>:<id>, datePickerPrev/Next:<id>,
  datePickerCell:<iso>:<id>.
- A code-drawn Calendar icon in icons.rs (original work, covered by its
  attribution entry).

From 090f761d7146f9cb7106a4bc306a28ec557c2be5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Nathaniel Ledford <nate@nateledford.com>
Date: Fri, 9 Oct 2026 09:38:11 -0400
Subject: [PATCH 096/344] LRC-LIB-SMARTCOLL: date rules get a calendar picker

Each date field in the smart-album rule editor has a DatePicker beside
its text field. It opens on the rule's date at its precision (or on
today, from the session's clock, passed in rules_editor::Env), and
writes what is picked as 2026, 2026-08 or 2026-08-14. Typing still
works, and opening never changes a rule. In a "between", each date's
picker stops at the other, so the two stay in order.

Headless tests pick a day, a month and a year, move between months and
year pages, keep a "between" in order from both ends, and open an
unreadable date on today without rewriting it.

Each disk is a row of its own and starts open: a drive letter, a Windows share (`\\server\share`, `\\?\UNC\…`, `\\wsl$\…`), a macOS share or disk (`/Volumes/tokyo`), a Linux mount (`/media`, `/run/media`, `/mnt`, gvfs `smb-share:…`, `/net/<host>`), NFS (`/Network/Servers/<host>`), else “This Computer” — told apart from the stored paths alone, so an offline share lists like a mounted one and the sidebar never waits on a network. Only folders that hold imported photos are listed (browsed, deleted and demo photos don't count); every folder is a row of its own (`Users` → `me` → `Pictures`), and a folder that holds nothing itself and leads to one folder starts open; every level indents one step more than its parent however deep it goes: the whole sidebar (Albums, Local, By Date, Folders, Keywords) scrolls sideways when its widest row is wider than the panel (rows are measured one frame behind; Create Album and the counts stay at the visible edge); a name that does not fit ends in an ellipsis at the count (the full name on hover; a row asks for room for at most 140 pt of its name, so depth, not one long name, makes the sidebar scroll), as does the grid title; selection and hover bars end at the panel's edge; click makes the folder the source, like an album or a Local folder (its photos and those of the folders inside it fill the grid, titled “photos/travel”; the filter bar narrows it further; `library.source` `libraryFolder` + `path`; kept with the library's view), and its row is always opened into view; the shown folder follows a rename or move and their undo (engine-tested; the sidebar test covers rename), is dropped back to All Photos when it is removed or no longer holds a photo, and a smart album made from the view keeps it, also when its rules are edited (the editor has no folder field). Only a folder that shows exactly its own photos can be shown (not the startup disk, not `/Volumes`-like folders above disks, not an empty one). A row that would cover other disks' photos too (the startup disk, `/Volumes`, `/mnt`…) only opens. Right-click (row or triangle): Rename Folder…, Move Folder To…, Show in Finder (on disk, photos relinked, as in Local) and Remove from Library… (asks; moves the folder's photos to Recently Deleted, one undo step, no file touched); a disk row offers Remove Disk from Library… (the command needs `disk: true` for a whole disk or a folder spanning several). Limits: names are compared as written (macOS `/Volumes/tokyo` vs `/Volumes/TOKYO` are two disks; `/Volumes/Macintosh HD/…` and `/…` two rows); no disk capacity / online status; no “include subfolders” switch (a folder always includes the ones inside it); creating a folder and moving photos between folders are not here |

Subject: [PATCH 098/344] LRC-LIB-SMARTCOLL: a date with a zone straight after
 the day is DateWithZone

From review: "2026-08-14Z" (a zone after a date with no time) was
reported as "needs a date" rather than as the time-zone issue it is.

Subject: [PATCH 099/344] LRC-LIB-SMARTCOLL: date picker review fixes: Esc,
 paging limits, strict parse
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

From review:
- Esc with the calendar open also closed the rule editor and lost its
  edits. The shortcut layer runs before the UI, and Esc's command (Back)
  closes any dialog. Shortcuts now leave Esc to an open popup (any
  menu or calendar). The picker marks Esc as handled for the frame
  (widgets::take_escape / escape_taken; the mark lasts the whole frame,
  since egui may run more than one pass), and the dialog's own Esc
  check defers to it. New headless test: Esc closes only the calendar.
- Paging wrapped at the ends (‹ on January 0000 showed December 0000).
  step() is now a pure function that stops at years 0000 / 9999; year
  pages are aligned blocks of twelve, and the last one holds 9996–9999.
  View::open clamps a caller's year and month, so a huge `today` can't
  overflow.
- PickedDate::parse reads a time after the day only if it is one
  (T10, T10:00, T10:00:00), as the rule check does; "2026-08-14Tjunk"
  is no longer shown as a valid day.
- Today is marked in the month and year views too (holds_today).
- Documented: ids must be unique among the pickers on screen; the
  picker picks dates, not times (picking a day replaces a typed time).
  The i18n test also covers Year / Month / Day.

Subject: [PATCH 100/344] LRC-LIB-SMARTCOLL: smart albums can test other smart
 albums (loops refused and survived)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

An Album rule may now name a smart album: "Keywords contain travel"
and "Album isn't Excluded Photos" (red or rejected) leaves out whatever
Excluded Photos matches, as its rules change. Smart albums used to be
refused for this.

Loops:
- RuleSet::check_for(cat, owner) refuses an Album rule that would make
  the owner include itself, directly or through other smart albums
  (Issue::AlbumLoop). Catalog::album_reaches walks the references with
  a seen-set; RuleSet::albums_tested lists them. album.setRules checks
  for the album being edited, and smart_album_problems reports a loop
  saved anyway.
- Matching never recurses without end: album_contains evaluates a smart
  album's rules through rules::evaluating, a thread-local stack of
  albums being evaluated with a 32-deep cap. An album already on it (a
  saved loop) holds nothing, and the stack is restored by a drop guard
  however evaluation ends. A test builds A → B → C → A and checks that
  every album returns and reports the loop.

The issue "can't test a smart album" is replaced by the loop issue in
all seven locales. The sidebar counts already refresh while any smart
album uses "in the last…", so an album testing one is covered.

From 5c949e01e80969ce9c33e71a1afc676caaa39804 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Nathaniel Ledford <nate@nateledford.com>
Date: Fri, 9 Oct 2026 10:05:55 -0400
Subject: [PATCH 101/344] LRC-LIB-SMARTCOLL: rule editor offers smart albums
 and blocks loops; Esc closes only popups

- The Album rule's list offers smart albums under a "Smart Albums"
  heading (translated in all seven locales). It leaves out the album
  being edited and any smart album that tests it, since that would loop
  back (album_choices, Catalog::album_reaches).
- The dialog checks rules for the album being edited
  (RuleSet::check_for), so a loop set by other means is marked under its
  row, OK is disabled, and confirm refuses it.
- Esc with any popup open in a dialog (a dropdown, a menu, a date
  picker) closed the dialog with its edits. The dialog now claims Esc
  for an open popup before drawing (widgets::take_escape), so only the
  popup closes. New headless test for a dropdown, next to the
  calendar's.

Each disk is a row of its own and starts open: a drive letter, a Windows share (`\\server\share`, `\\?\UNC\…`, `\\wsl$\…`), a macOS share or disk (`/Volumes/tokyo`), a Linux mount (`/media`, `/run/media`, `/mnt`, gvfs `smb-share:…`, `/net/<host>`), NFS (`/Network/Servers/<host>`), else “This Computer” — told apart from the stored paths alone, so an offline share lists like a mounted one and the sidebar never waits on a network. Only folders that hold imported photos are listed (browsed, deleted and demo photos don't count); every folder is a row of its own (`Users` → `me` → `Pictures`), and a folder that holds nothing itself and leads to one folder starts open; every level indents one step more than its parent however deep it goes: the whole sidebar (Albums, Local, By Date, Folders, Keywords) scrolls sideways when its widest row is wider than the panel (rows are measured one frame behind; Create Album and the counts stay at the visible edge); a name that does not fit ends in an ellipsis at the count (the full name on hover; a row asks for room for at most 140 pt of its name, so depth, not one long name, makes the sidebar scroll), as does the grid title; selection and hover bars end at the panel's edge; click makes the folder the source, like an album or a Local folder (its photos and those of the folders inside it fill the grid, titled “photos/travel”; the filter bar narrows it further; `library.source` `libraryFolder` + `path`; kept with the library's view), and its row is always opened into view; the shown folder follows a rename or move and their undo (engine-tested; the sidebar test covers rename), is dropped back to All Photos when it is removed or no longer holds a photo, and a smart album made from the view keeps it, also when its rules are edited (the editor has no folder field). Only a folder that shows exactly its own photos can be shown (not the startup disk, not `/Volumes`-like folders above disks, not an empty one). A row that would cover other disks' photos too (the startup disk, `/Volumes`, `/mnt`…) only opens. Right-click (row or triangle): Rename Folder…, Move Folder To…, Show in Finder (on disk, photos relinked, as in Local) and Remove from Library… (asks; moves the folder's photos to Recently Deleted, one undo step, no file touched); a disk row offers Remove Disk from Library… (the command needs `disk: true` for a whole disk or a folder spanning several). Limits: names are compared as written (macOS `/Volumes/tokyo` vs `/Volumes/TOKYO` are two disks; `/Volumes/Macintosh HD/…` and `/…` two rows); no disk capacity / online status; no “include subfolders” switch (a folder always includes the ones inside it); creating a folder and moving photos between folders are not here |

Subject: [PATCH 103/344] LRC-LIB-SMARTCOLL: rule summaries name albums, not
 ids
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Summaries showed an Album rule's id ("album isn't 9"): the sidebar
tooltip, the "Rules:" filter chip and albums.list's rulesText for
agents.

RuleSet::describe_with(&Catalog) and Filter::describe_with name the
album ("album isn't “Excluded Photos”"). One that is gone shows as #9
(rules::album_name). The engine's rulesText and Rules chip use them, and
i18n::rules_label takes the catalog for the translated summaries.
Tests at all three levels: catalog (nested groups, a missing album),
engine (rulesText), UI (German summary).

Subject: [PATCH 104/344] LRC-LIB-SMARTCOLL: album_reaches uses a hash set;
 loop test describes the guard

From review: the walk through smart-album references kept its seen-set
in a Vec, which is quadratic over long chains. The loop test's comment
now says what a saved loop does: inside it, the album being evaluated
counts as holding no photos.

Subject: [PATCH 105/344] LRC-LIB-SMARTCOLL: Update Rules from Current Filter
 refuses loops

From review: album.setRules with fromView saved the current view
unchecked. Showing smart album A ("Album isn't B") and updating B from
that view made B test itself, which the rule check is meant to refuse.
The view is still saved as it is, but a loop for the album being
updated is refused (Issue::AlbumLoop), and the sidebar's menu item
shows the reason instead of ignoring the result.

Subject: [PATCH 106/344] LRC-LIB-SMARTCOLL: correct the docs on smart albums
 testing smart albums

From review: a loop saved anyway doesn't "match nothing". Inside it, the
album being evaluated counts as empty, so an "isn't" rule on it matches
every photo; the sidebar marks it. Also: Album rules take plain or smart
albums (not "plain" only), the picker lists both, an album that is
smart is no longer a problem, and a broken sentence in the parity row
is mended.

Each disk is a row of its own and starts open: a drive letter, a Windows share (`\\server\share`, `\\?\UNC\…`, `\\wsl$\…`), a macOS share or disk (`/Volumes/tokyo`), a Linux mount (`/media`, `/run/media`, `/mnt`, gvfs `smb-share:…`, `/net/<host>`), NFS (`/Network/Servers/<host>`), else “This Computer” — told apart from the stored paths alone, so an offline share lists like a mounted one and the sidebar never waits on a network. Only folders that hold imported photos are listed (browsed, deleted and demo photos don't count); every folder is a row of its own (`Users` → `me` → `Pictures`), and a folder that holds nothing itself and leads to one folder starts open; every level indents one step more than its parent however deep it goes: the whole sidebar (Albums, Local, By Date, Folders, Keywords) scrolls sideways when its widest row is wider than the panel (rows are measured one frame behind; Create Album and the counts stay at the visible edge); a name that does not fit ends in an ellipsis at the count (the full name on hover; a row asks for room for at most 140 pt of its name, so depth, not one long name, makes the sidebar scroll), as does the grid title; selection and hover bars end at the panel's edge; click makes the folder the source, like an album or a Local folder (its photos and those of the folders inside it fill the grid, titled “photos/travel”; the filter bar narrows it further; `library.source` `libraryFolder` + `path`; kept with the library's view), and its row is always opened into view; the shown folder follows a rename or move and their undo (engine-tested; the sidebar test covers rename), is dropped back to All Photos when it is removed or no longer holds a photo, and a smart album made from the view keeps it, also when its rules are edited (the editor has no folder field). Only a folder that shows exactly its own photos can be shown (not the startup disk, not `/Volumes`-like folders above disks, not an empty one). A row that would cover other disks' photos too (the startup disk, `/Volumes`, `/mnt`…) only opens. Right-click (row or triangle): Rename Folder…, Move Folder To…, Show in Finder (on disk, photos relinked, as in Local) and Remove from Library… (asks; moves the folder's photos to Recently Deleted, one undo step, no file touched); a disk row offers Remove Disk from Library… (the command needs `disk: true` for a whole disk or a folder spanning several). Limits: names are compared as written (macOS `/Volumes/tokyo` vs `/Volumes/TOKYO` are two disks; `/Volumes/Macintosh HD/…` and `/…` two rows); no disk capacity / online status; no “include subfolders” switch (a folder always includes the ones inside it); creating a folder and moving photos between folders are not here |

The editor marks each bad rule under its row (inside groups too), keeps OK disabled until they are fixed (and its confirm refuses them before renaming anything), picks an Album rule's album from a list of the plain albums, named with their folder and sorted by name (is / isn't; a folder can't be tested), and drawing it never changes a rule: a rating of 9, "in the last 0 days" or 20,000 days, a "between" that isn't a pair all stay as stored (and are marked where they can't match) until edited. Album rules saved with an old operator (≥, between) are read as the "isn't" they always meant (`RuleSet::upgrade`). Saved smart albums whose rules no longer check are marked ⚠ in the sidebar (tooltip: what to fix; `albums.list` `problems`, `Catalog::smart_album_problems`); the name and rules of an album are saved as one undo step (`album.setRules` `name`).

Subject: [PATCH 107/344] Tests: neutral example names in file-path and
 long-name fixtures

A file-path rule test and a sidebar long-name test used a real person's
name as their example. They now use "Lake Como Wedding-Day" and keep
what they check: a multi-word folder name, word order that must not
match, and a hyphen a space must not match.

Subject: [PATCH 108/344] LRC-LIB-SMARTCOLL: a standalone album picker with a
 tree and search
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

A flat dropdown doesn't scale to the hundreds of albums and smart
albums a library grows. crates/ui-egui/src/album_picker.rs is a
reusable picker:

- A button opens a popup with a search field, focused on open.
- With nothing typed it shows the sidebar's tree in the sidebar's order
  (entries_from uses Catalog::album_children_by_parent): folders with
  painted disclosure triangles and folder icons, album / smart-album
  icons. Folders are closed except those holding the current choice.
- Typing lists the albums whose "Folder / Name" path holds every word,
  in any case, names starting with the query first. ↑ / ↓ move, Enter
  picks, Esc closes just the popup.
- Albums that can't be picked stay visible but greyed, the reason on
  hover, instead of vanishing.
- Pure, unit-tested helpers: path_label, ancestors, visible_tree,
  search, set_depths. Widget ids albumPicker / albumPickerSearch /
  albumPickerFolder / albumPickerItem.

The rule editor's Album value uses it. The album being edited and
albums that would loop back are blocked with a reason ("This is the
album you're editing", "It tests this album, so testing it back would
loop"). This also removes the stray divider the old dropdown drew above
"Smart Albums" when no regular album preceded it. New strings are
translated in all seven locales, and the strict i18n test lists them;
the unused "Smart Albums" heading is dropped. Headless tests: browsing
the tree, typing with ↑ / Enter, greyed loops.

Each disk is a row of its own and starts open: a drive letter, a Windows share (`\\server\share`, `\\?\UNC\…`, `\\wsl$\…`), a macOS share or disk (`/Volumes/tokyo`), a Linux mount (`/media`, `/run/media`, `/mnt`, gvfs `smb-share:…`, `/net/<host>`), NFS (`/Network/Servers/<host>`), else “This Computer” — told apart from the stored paths alone, so an offline share lists like a mounted one and the sidebar never waits on a network. Only folders that hold imported photos are listed (browsed, deleted and demo photos don't count); every folder is a row of its own (`Users` → `me` → `Pictures`), and a folder that holds nothing itself and leads to one folder starts open; every level indents one step more than its parent however deep it goes: the whole sidebar (Albums, Local, By Date, Folders, Keywords) scrolls sideways when its widest row is wider than the panel (rows are measured one frame behind; Create Album and the counts stay at the visible edge); a name that does not fit ends in an ellipsis at the count (the full name on hover; a row asks for room for at most 140 pt of its name, so depth, not one long name, makes the sidebar scroll), as does the grid title; selection and hover bars end at the panel's edge; click makes the folder the source, like an album or a Local folder (its photos and those of the folders inside it fill the grid, titled “photos/travel”; the filter bar narrows it further; `library.source` `libraryFolder` + `path`; kept with the library's view), and its row is always opened into view; the shown folder follows a rename or move and their undo (engine-tested; the sidebar test covers rename), is dropped back to All Photos when it is removed or no longer holds a photo, and a smart album made from the view keeps it, also when its rules are edited (the editor has no folder field). Only a folder that shows exactly its own photos can be shown (not the startup disk, not `/Volumes`-like folders above disks, not an empty one). A row that would cover other disks' photos too (the startup disk, `/Volumes`, `/mnt`…) only opens.

Subject: [PATCH 110/344] LRC-LIB-SMARTCOLL: smart albums testing smart albums
 stay linear

From final review: the loop guard bounded the depth of smart albums
testing smart albums, but not repeated work. Each album tested by the
next one twice ("all of: album is X(k-1), album is X(k-1)") doubled the
cost per level, so 25 levels meant 2^25 evaluations per photo, enough
to freeze the sidebar's counts. Any agent or catalog file could build
such a chain.

rules::smart_album_holds remembers each smart album's answer for each
photo during one outermost question, and forgets them when it ends (a
drop guard, however it ends). A regression test counts a 26-deep
doubled chain in well under its 2 s limit; before the fix it ran for
minutes.

Subject: [PATCH 111/344] LRC-LIB-SMARTCOLL: a rule that stopped checking
 doesn't block other changes
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

From final review: library.filter and album.setRules (without replace)
merged a change onto the current rules and re-checked all of them.
Once a rule stopped checking later (the album it tests was deleted, a
custom label renamed), every later change was refused: the search box,
keyword clicks and the filter bar silently stopped working, since the
UI doesn't show those errors, and partial edits of the album were
refused.

Only rules a change sets ("ruleSet" present) are checked now. Rules
that went stale still show in the dialog and the sidebar's ⚠ until
they're fixed. A regression test deletes the album a filter rule tests,
then changes the rating, edits the album, and still gets refused for a
bad new rule.

Subject: [PATCH 112/344] LRC-LIB-SMARTCOLL: loops through a smart album's
 album filter count too
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

From final review: loop detection only followed Album rules. A smart
album's own album field (Filter.album, as set by the filter bar or
album.setRules {rules: {album}}) was ignored, so
"album.setRules {id: A, rules: {album: A}}" was accepted and A became
silently empty. On main it would have recursed to a stack overflow; the
guard already stops that.

Filter::albums_tested covers both, and album_reaches follows it.
Catalog::album_filter_problem reports a loop through the album field;
smart_album_problems (sidebar ⚠, albums.list) and album.setRules
(including fromView) use it. A problem with no rule position displays
without the "rule …:" / "#…" prefix.

From: Nathaniel Ledford <nate@nateledford.com>
Date: Fri, 9 Oct 2026 10:40:50 -0400
Subject: [PATCH 113/344] LRC-LIB-SMARTCOLL: rule dates accept fractions and
 time zones after the seconds
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

From final review: I had refused a time zone or fractions of a second
in rule dates on the premise that capture times are stored local and to
the second. They aren't. Imports write DateTime::to_iso, which carries
EXIF SubSecTime and OffsetTime ("2026-08-14T10:00:00.250+02:00"), so a
rule like "is 2026-08-14T10:00:00.250" did match those photos and was
wrongly refused; saved albums holding such dates would have shown ⚠
too.

rule_date now accepts, after whole seconds, a fraction (1–9 digits)
and a zone (Z or ±hh:mm). Anywhere else ("2026-08-14Z") they are no
date. Issue::DateWithZone and its translations are gone; such values
are NeedsDate. The test matches a photo captured with a fraction and a
zone, and the docs no longer say zones are refused.

Each disk is a row of its own and starts open: a drive letter, a Windows share (`\\server\share`, `\\?\UNC\…`, `\\wsl$\…`), a macOS share or disk (`/Volumes/tokyo`), a Linux mount (`/media`, `/run/media`, `/mnt`, gvfs `smb-share:…`, `/net/<host>`), NFS (`/Network/Servers/<host>`), else “This Computer” — told apart from the stored paths alone, so an offline share lists like a mounted one and the sidebar never waits on a network. Only folders that hold imported photos are listed (browsed, deleted and demo photos don't count); every folder is a row of its own (`Users` → `me` → `Pictures`), and a folder that holds nothing itself and leads to one folder starts open; every level indents one step more than its parent however deep it goes: the whole sidebar (Albums, Local, By Date, Folders, Keywords) scrolls sideways when its widest row is wider than the panel (rows are measured one frame behind; Create Album and the counts stay at the visible edge); a name that does not fit ends in an ellipsis at the count (the full name on hover; a row asks for room for at most 140 pt of its name, so depth, not one long name, makes the sidebar scroll), as does the grid title; selection and hover bars end at the panel's edge; click makes the folder the source, like an album or a Local folder (its photos and those of the folders inside it fill the grid, titled “photos/travel”; the filter bar narrows it further; `library.source` `libraryFolder` + `path`; kept with the library's view), and its row is always opened into view; the shown folder follows a rename or move and their undo (engine-tested; the sidebar test covers rename), is dropped back to All Photos when it is removed or no longer holds a photo, and a smart album made from the view keeps it, also when its rules are edited (the editor has no folder field). Only a folder that shows exactly its own photos can be shown (not the startup disk, not `/Volumes`-like folders above disks, not an empty one). A row that would cover other disks' photos too (the startup disk, `/Volumes`, `/mnt`…) only opens. Right-click (row or triangle): Rename Folder…, Move Folder To…, Show in Finder (on disk, photos relinked, as in Local) and Remove from Library… (asks; moves the folder's photos to Recently Deleted, one undo step, no file touched); a disk row offers Remove Disk from Library… (the command needs `disk: true` for a whole disk or a folder spanning several). Limits: names are compared as written (macOS `/Volumes/tokyo` vs `/Volumes/TOKYO` are two disks; `/Volumes/Macintosh HD/…` and `/…` two rows); no disk capacity / online status; no “include subfolders” switch (a folder always includes the ones inside it); creating a folder and moving photos between folders are not here |

From: Nathaniel Ledford <nate@nateledford.com>
Date: Fri, 9 Oct 2026 10:42:02 -0400
Subject: [PATCH 114/344] LR-LIB-CAPTURETIME: a shift past year 9999 (or before
 0000) is refused, not skipped
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

From final review: photo.setCaptureTime quietly skipped photos whose
shifted date would leave years 0000–9999. It reported success, with
the photo missing from `captured`. Such a shift is now refused for the
whole selection with how many photos it concerns, and nothing changes.
A date that doesn't read at all is still skipped, as before.

Subject: [PATCH 115/344] LRC-LIB-SMARTCOLL: album picker: fast with big
 libraries, keeps the keyboard, scrolls freely
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

From final review:
- Cost: ancestors and paths were found by scanning every album for each
  row, which grows with the square of the album count (about 1.1 s for
  20,000 albums). An id→position index built once per call or frame
  makes it cost the folder depth. A test lays out and searches 20,000
  albums in nested folders well under its 1 s limit.
- Focus: clicking a folder, or pressing Enter when nothing can be
  picked, took the keyboard from the search box, so typing went
  nowhere. Both hand it back; a headless test types after a folder
  click.
- Scrolling: the highlighted result was scrolled into view every frame,
  fighting the mouse wheel. It now scrolls only when ↑ / ↓ moved to it.
  The headless harness stops rendering once input is handled, so this
  snap-back can't be reproduced there; a test I wrote passed with and
  without the fix and was dropped rather than kept as a false guard.
- Folder rows carry widget info (name, open or not) for assistive
  tools. Dead code (an unused stack) and a test assertion that couldn't
  fail are gone.

Subject: [PATCH 116/344] LRC-LIB-SMARTCOLL: rule dialog and sidebar problems
 cached per change, not per frame
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

From final review: while the rule dialog was open it ran the rule check
several times, the full query for the live count (sorting every match
only to count them) and rebuilt the album list with a loop walk per
album, on every repaint, including pointer moves over a picker. The
sidebar re-checked every smart album's rules on every frame.

Caches::rules_view keeps the dialog's problems, count and album list
until the catalog revision, the rules, the language or (for "in the
last…" rules) the minute changes. Caches::smart_album_problems keeps
the sidebar's ⚠ problems per catalog revision. Both count their scans,
like the album counts, and a test checks that unchanged frames reuse
them and that rule and catalog changes don't.

Subject: [PATCH 117/344] LRC-LIB-SMARTCOLL: rule editor: calendars only on
 date fields; in-the-last N as text

From final review:
- Every non-number "between" got date pickers, so a text or choice rule
  written with "between" (by an agent; the check marks it) offered
  calendars that would write dates into it. Only date fields get them
  now; a test checks a "Title between" rule.
- An "in the last" N stored as text ("7") showed as 30, and changing
  only the unit wrote 30. It is now read as the catalog reads it.
- take_escape's comment no longer claims later egui passes see the key
  press (they don't); keying it to the frame just lets it lapse.

Subject: [PATCH 118/344] LRC-LIB-SMARTCOLL: translate every rule field and
 group label
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

From final review: the field menu mixed languages. The new fields (Copy
Name, In a Stack, File Extension, Video Duration, Keyword Count, People
Count, Shutter Speed, Cropped) and four group headings (Keywords &
People, Description, Camera Info, Develop) were English in every
locale. Russian also lacked fifteen older labels (Pick Flag, Any
Searchable Text, Filename, Color Label, Has GPS…).

All are translated, following each locale's existing terms (Stapel /
Pila / スタック / 堆叠 for stacks, Цветовая метка as in Russian's
other colour-label messages). The i18n test now requires every field
and group label in every language, as it does for choice values and
problem texts. pt-br's album search reads "Pesquisar", like its other
searches.

Subject: [PATCH 119/344] LRC-LIB-SMARTCOLL: docs and comments match the code
 at the end of the branch
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

From final review: the problem-message example ("rule 2.1: rating is
0–5, not 9") predated the rating check's rewording ("no rating 0–5 is
9"); two doc comments still said Album rules take a plain album; and
What's New described the Album rule's old flat list.

Each disk is a row of its own and starts open: a drive letter, a Windows share (`\\server\share`, `\\?\UNC\…`, `\\wsl$\…`), a macOS share or disk (`/Volumes/tokyo`), a Linux mount (`/media`, `/run/media`, `/mnt`, gvfs `smb-share:…`, `/net/<host>`), NFS (`/Network/Servers/<host>`), else “This Computer” — told apart from the stored paths alone, so an offline share lists like a mounted one and the sidebar never waits on a network. Only folders that hold imported photos are listed (browsed, deleted and demo photos don't count); every folder is a row of its own (`Users` → `me` → `Pictures`), and a folder that holds nothing itself and leads to one folder starts open; every level indents one step more than its parent however deep it goes: the whole sidebar (Albums, Local, By Date, Folders, Keywords) scrolls sideways when its widest row is wider than the panel (rows are measured one frame behind; Create Album and the counts stay at the visible edge); a name that does not fit ends in an ellipsis at the count (the full name on hover; a row asks for room for at most 140 pt of its name, so depth, not one long name, makes the sidebar scroll), as does the grid title; selection and hover bars end at the panel's edge; click makes the folder the source, like an album or a Local folder (its photos and those of the folders inside it fill the grid, titled “photos/travel”; the filter bar narrows it further; `library.source` `libraryFolder` + `path`; kept with the library's view), and its row is always opened into view; the shown folder follows a rename or move and their undo (engine-tested; the sidebar test covers rename), is dropped back to All Photos when it is removed or no longer holds a photo, and a smart album made from the view keeps it, also when its rules are edited (the editor has no folder field). Only a folder that shows exactly its own photos can be shown (not the startup disk, not `/Volumes`-like folders above disks, not an empty one). A row that would cover other disks' photos too (the startup disk, `/Volumes`, `/mnt`…) only opens. Right-click (row or triangle): Rename Folder…, Move Folder To…, Show in Finder (on disk, photos relinked, as in Local) and Remove from Library… (asks; moves the folder's photos to Recently Deleted, one undo step, no file touched); a disk row offers Remove Disk from Library… (the command needs `disk: true` for a whole disk or a folder spanning several). Limits: names are compared as written (macOS `/Volumes/tokyo` vs `/Volumes/TOKYO` are two disks; `/Volumes/Macintosh HD/…` and `/…` two rows); no disk capacity / online status; no “include subfolders” switch (a folder always includes the ones inside it); creating a folder and moving photos between folders are not here |

Subject: [PATCH 120/344] LR-PROF-CAMERACOLOR: match the camera JPEG proxy to
 the sensor proxy size exactly

proxies() fitted the decoded camera JPEG into the sensor proxy's box,
which keeps the JPEG's own aspect and can round a pixel short: an
ILCE-7RM4's 1616x1080 preview, decoded at 384x257, fits a 192x128
profile proxy as 191x128, and collect_pairs rejected the mismatch. So
`lightcraft-cli calibrate` skipped every file from this camera and no
profile could be written.

Resize the JPEG to exactly the sensor proxy's size instead; proxies()
has already rejected references whose aspect differs by more than 2%.
Where fitting already landed on the proxy's size the result is
identical (fit is resize at a rounded size), so working renders don't
change: 34 real ILCE-7RM4 ARWs render bit-identically. On 923 files
from one trip calibrate goes from 0 to 843 accepted.

Subject: [PATCH 121/344] LRC-DEV-PROCESS: process versions, so a look change
 can ship without changing existing edits (#146)

Each photo's develop settings record the rendering process they are
interpreted by (`DevelopSettings::process`). There is one process, V1, the
pipeline as it is; nothing renders differently (180 CPU 8/16-bit and GPU
renders of procedural scenes, and the saved settings JSON and hash64, are
byte-identical to main).

Settings saved without the field load as V1 (a field-level serde default),
new settings get the latest (`Default`), and V1 is left out when saving, so
files and preview-cache keys stay as they were. A damaged value (anything
but a whole number up to 2^32 - 1) reads as V1 too, so it never costs the
rest of the settings (an unparsable `lc:settings` sidecar is ignored). Reset moves a photo to the
latest process, section and slider resets don't; virtual copies inherit
it; copy / paste / sync / Auto Sync / presets don't carry it; a number from
a newer LightCraft is kept and renders with the newest known process. The
process is not an edit (Edited badges, import-look checks). The base tone
map is chosen per process in one place (`finish::base_tone`, shared by CPU
and GPU). Photo > Update to Current Process (`develop.updateProcess`) moves
selected photos on an older process to the latest as one undo step. Its
menu enablement follows the selection; a call that names photos (`ids` /
`id`) is validated on those instead, through a new opt-in
`CommandSpec::explicit_targets` (execute checks enablement before the
handler sees `ids`). `develop.get` reports the process. The rule and how to add V2:
docs/process-versions.md.

+# Process versions
+
+Every photo's develop settings record the **rendering process** they are interpreted by
+(`DevelopSettings::process`, a `ProcessVersion` in `crates/develop/src/settings.rs`). Lightroom calls
+this the process version. It lets the look of LightCraft improve (a new default tone curve, issue #146;
+stronger Light sliders, issue #196) without changing a single photo someone has already edited.
+
+Today there is one process, **V1**: LightCraft's rendering from before process versions existed.
+
+## The rule
+
+**A change that alters how existing settings render ships as a new process. V1 is frozen.**
+
+- A deliberate change of look (tone model, slider response, default curve, how a stage interprets a
+  value) goes into a new process. Photos stay on the process they have until someone runs Update to
+  Current Process (or Reset).
+- Bug fixes that make output correct where it was broken (a crash, NaN or black output, a decoder
+  error, CPU and GPU disagreeing) are not looks and can land in place, as before.
+- Changes to how a file is decoded or which camera colour it gets change the source, not how settings
+  are interpreted; the process doesn't reach that stage today.
+
+## Adding a process
+
+1. Add a variant to `Process` (`V2`), append it to `Process::ALL` (oldest first), give it its number in
+   `Process::version` and make it `Process::LATEST`.
+2. The compiler then points at every `match` on `Process`. The base tone map is chosen in one place,
+   `lightcraft_pipeline::finish::base_tone` (both the CPU and the GPU renderer take it from there): give
+   V2 its own arm and leave V1's alone. A process that changes another stage branches there the same
+   way, on `s.process.process()`; if that stage is cached (`Plan::lin_key`, the planes in `local.rs`),
+   add the process to its key.
+3. Keep `settings_saved_before_process_versions_load_as_v1` (`crates/develop/src/tests_process.rs`)
+   passing: settings saved without the field must stay V1, not become the new latest. That is the
+   field's `#[serde(default = "ProcessVersion::legacy")]`; the struct-level `Default` gives new
+   settings the latest instead.
+4. Render a few procedural scenes on both processes and compare, and update `docs/parity.md`.
+
+## What gets which process
+
+| | Process |
+|---|---|
+| A newly imported, merged or Lightroom-imported photo | the latest |
+| Settings saved without the field (catalogs and their snapshots, versions and history, `lc:settings` in XMP sidecars, browser libraries: everything from before process versions), or with a damaged value | V1 |
+| Reset (`develop.reset`) | the latest |
+| Reset of a section or a slider | unchanged |
+| Update to Current Process (`develop.updateProcess`) | the latest, for photos on an older one; one undo step. The menu item follows the selection; a call with `ids` / `id` acts on those photos whatever is selected |
+| Virtual copy, duplicate | the source's |
+| Copy / paste / sync / Auto Sync / presets | unchanged (see below) |
+| `crs:` edits (XMP from other raw developers, Lightroom catalogs, imported presets) | unchanged; a new photo has the latest |
+| Restoring a version or history step | the one it had |
+
+**Copy, paste, sync and presets** never carry the process: it is in no settings group, so the photos
+they change keep their own and interpret the pasted values with it. (Lightroom offers the process
+version as a separate checkbox when syncing; LightCraft's groups are coarser and keep it out.) Partial
+settings JSON that names `process` itself (`develop.merge`, a hand-written preset) sets it.
+
+**Lightroom edits** are re-interpreted by LightCraft's mapper (`crates/engine/src/crs.rs`), which is
+written against the current rendering. `crs:ProcessVersion` numbers Adobe's renderer, not ours, and is
+ignored; a photo imported with Lightroom edits is on LightCraft's latest process, and an existing
+LightCraft photo that receives them keeps its own.
+
+**A number this build doesn't know** (a library or sidecar written by a newer LightCraft) loads, is
+kept when saved, and renders with the newest process this build has. Update to Current Process never
+moves a photo to an older process; Reset does move it to this build's latest.
+
+**A damaged value** (anything but a whole number from 0 to 2^32 - 1; `2.0` counts as 2) reads as V1,
+like a missing field, and costs nothing else: the rest of the settings load from the catalog, a
+snapshot, the op log or an `lc:settings` sidecar as usual. The damaged value isn't kept: the photo is
+saved as V1.
+
+## Storage
+
+The process is saved as `"process": <number>` in the settings JSON, except V1, which is left out.
+Settings made before process versions existed are therefore saved exactly as before, and their
+preview-cache keys (`DevelopSettings::hash64`) don't change. `develop.get` (MCP `get_develop`) always
+states the process.

Subject: [PATCH 123/344] LRC-LIB-CATALOG-IMPORT: read Lightroom's Custom white
 balance by its as-shot shift on relative-WB raws (#510)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

A Custom white balance from a Lightroom catalog or XMP sidecar was taken as absolute Kelvin for every
raw. Raws LightCraft develops relative to their as-shot look (ARW, NEF, RW2, RAF, CR3, CR2, PEF; 6500 K
means as shot) then read a small tweak as a large blue shift: ΔE 22 against Lightroom's export on the
photos of issue #510.

The crs mapper now takes a `Target` (preset, rendered, raw with a measured illuminant, relative-WB raw)
instead of a bool. For relative-WB raws, and rendered files with only `Temperature`, a Kelvin value is
converted to the same mired shift from the packet's `AsShotTemperature` / `AsShotTint`. Without that
reference (Lightroom catalogs keep none for Custom photos) the photo stays As Shot and the import
report lists `Temperature, Tint` as not carried over. Import, sidecar read and catalog import decide
the target the same way through `lightcraft_catalog::relative_wb_format`.

Tests: shift from the issue's numbers (3650 → 3578 K lands at ~6275 K), the As Shot fallback with its
report entry, target selection per file, and the catalog mapper's Custom-WB case.

Limits: names are compared as written (macOS `/Volumes/tokyo` vs `/Volumes/TOKYO` are two disks; `/Volumes/Macintosh HD/…` and `/…` two rows); no disk capacity / online status; no “include subfolders” switch (a folder always includes the ones inside it); creating a folder and moving photos between folders are not here |

Subject: [PATCH 124/344] #538: breadcrumbs open their folder as spelled; fix
 browse test on Windows

browse_a_local_folder compared the browsed folder with backslashes replaced
by slashes, but library.browse keeps the platform's separators; compare
paths instead. A breadcrumb now opens the path cut from the original string,
so a UNC share keeps its leading \ and a bare drive opens its root (C:\)
rather than the current folder on that drive.

Subject: [PATCH 125/344] LR-CROP-STRAIGHTEN: the headless harness reports the
 cursor and the painted text

For the crop tool's rotation pointer tests (#534): Headless::last_cursor
is the pointer cursor the last frame asked for (what a real host would
show), and painted_text lists every text the last frame painted,
tooltips included. An import test already did the latter inline. Both
let UI tests check what a person sees.

Subject: [PATCH 126/344] LR-CROP-STRAIGHTEN: a rotation pointer and an angle
 readout in the crop tool (#534)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Dragging outside the crop box rotates the photo, but the pointer there
was egui's generic Alias arrow, so nothing showed that a drag would
rotate (issue #534).

- Outside the box, and throughout a rotation drag, the system cursor is
  hidden and a curved double arrow (new code-drawn Icon::RotateDrag) is
  drawn at the pointer on a dark disc, on the tooltip layer
  (`cropRotateCursor`). No system cursor has a rotate shape.
- While rotating, the angle is shown next to the pointer
  (`cropAngleReadout`), formatted like the Straighten value
  (crop_angle_label, reusing widgets::shown_value), every zero as
  "0.00°".
- Headless tests: the cursor outside vs inside the box, the readout
  during a drag and gone after it, the label format, and typing an
  exact angle into the Straighten value (which already worked; now
  guarded).

Subject: [PATCH 127/344] LR-CROP-STRAIGHTEN: slider values say they can be
 typed

Every slider's value already takes a typed number when clicked, which
is how to enter an exact crop angle (#534), but nothing said so.
Hovering a slider value now shows "Click to type a value", translated
in all seven locales. A headless test hovers the Straighten value and
finds the hint painted.

From review:
- With ⌘ held a drag draws a level line, but outside the crop box the
  pointer showed the rotation arrow (the crosshair was set, then
  overwritten in the same frame). The crop tool now leaves the
  straighten crosshair alone while ⌘ is held and nothing is rotating.
- The angle readout ran past the canvas (and the window) near its
  right or bottom edge. It now flips to the pointer's other side and is
  kept inside the canvas (readout_rect).
- The readout showed the angle from before this frame's rotation. It is
  now drawn after the drag is applied, with the angle just set.

Headless tests: ⌘ held outside the box gives the crosshair and no
glyph; rotating at the canvas's corner keeps the readout on the canvas.

Subject: [PATCH 130/344] LR-CROP-STRAIGHTEN: an Angle field in the Crop panel
 for an exact rotation (#534)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The issue asks for a numeric field for an exact, repeatable rotation.
Typing into the Straighten value worked, but it was hidden behind a
hover hint. The Crop panel now has an Angle field under Straighten (a
drag value in degrees, −45° to 45°, two decimals): click and type, or
drag it. A drag is one undo step, like the slider's
(begin / endInteraction). "Angle" is translated in all seven locales.

Headless tests: typing -3.25 into the field sets exactly -3.25°; a
six-step drag on it adds one undo step (it added five before the
interaction was wrapped).

Subject: [PATCH 132/344] LR-CROP-STRAIGHTEN: keep the angle readout on the
 canvas, not the photo

The readout was bounded by the photo's rect, so rotating in the margin
beside a narrow photo pinned it to the photo's edge, far from the
pointer (the earlier commit said "kept on the canvas" but used the
photo). It is now bounded by the canvas. Placing it also no longer
panics on NaN or empty bounds (f32::clamp panics on NaN).

Subject: [PATCH 133/344] LR-CROP-STRAIGHTEN: the Angle field applies a typed
 angle on Return
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8

The field applied every keystroke: an undo step and a render per key,
and half-typed angles (-3° on the way to -3.25°). It now applies on
Return or when focus leaves, as one undo step, and ignores changes that
leave the angle as it is.

Subject: [PATCH 134/344] LR-CROP-STRAIGHTEN: Esc in the Angle field keeps the
 old angle

Esc applied the typed angle: egui takes the focus away on the Esc frame
and parses the leftover text on the next one, when Esc is no longer
pressed. The field now remembers the Esc for that frame, as the
slider's typed value already keeps the old value on Esc. Leaving the
field another way still applies the angle.

Subject: [PATCH 135/344] LR-CROP-STRAIGHTEN: a move or resize drag keeps its
 pointer past the box

The box stops at the photo's edge, so a move or resize drag can carry
the pointer outside it, where the rotation glyph replaced the move or
resize cursor and said the drag rotated. The drag's own cursor now
holds until it ends.

Subject: [PATCH 136/344] LR-CROP-STRAIGHTEN: a crop drag cut short leaves
 nothing behind

Closing the crop tool in the middle of a rotation (Return, Esc) left the
rotate gesture set, as only the canvas's drag-stopped cleared it. Once
the rotation pointer and angle readout were derived from it, reopening
Crop showed both everywhere, over the side panels too, until the next
drag. A crop gesture with no button held is now over.

Subject: [PATCH 137/344] LR-CROP-STRAIGHTEN: the Angle field reads decimal
 commas
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

egui's own parser dropped "-3,25" silently, while the Straighten value
takes it (issue #322). The field now reads a typed angle through the
same `typed_value`: a decimal comma, a trailing degree sign, and an
angle past ±45° held at the limit.

that it applies on Return or leaving it, that Esc keeps the old angle
and that it takes a decimal comma; the Angle slider row points to it.

The readout and the slider said "+2.50" where the field said "2.50";
it now writes the angle through crop_angle_label too. The test that
said the readout's "0.00°" matched the slider at rest (it shows "0")
says what it does match.

Subject: [PATCH 141/344] LR-EDIT-OPTICS-PROFILE: Reload from Disk reads a
 file's lens data and turns the correction on for untouched photos

A catalog written before the lens data was read at import (RW2/RWL from
v0.4.0) has none stored, and the lens correction stays off. Reload now
stores the fresh probe's lens data (new journaled, undoable
Op::SetEmbeddedLens; catalog format 4) and, for photos still at import
settings, switches the correction on as import does. Edited photos and
photos with a default-preset look keep their settings.

Subject: [PATCH 143/344] LR-BEHAV-BG-TASKS: demo scenes: a rayon worker
 renders a scene alone, never in parallel (deadlock)

Demo scene pixels were generated inside `OnceLock::get_or_init` on the
caller's thread, and the render runs on rayon. A rayon worker that waits
for rows another worker took runs queued jobs on top of itself; when one
of those asked for the same scene, it waited in `get_or_init` on the
generation further down its own stack, and every other request for that
scene waited behind it, forever. The faces scan's pool threads hit it (two
tests_face_recognize tests sat in `Once::wait` for 30 minutes); any rayon
worker loading demo photos could.

Each (scene, size) slot now has one generation at a time: the first caller
renders, with no lock held, and later callers wait on a condvar for that
generation's outcome. The render never needs a thread that waits:
- a rayon worker (the faces scan, merges) renders on its own thread alone,
  without rayon (`Scene::render_fit_serial`, the same pixels), so it never
  runs other jobs mid-render, and the work stays within its pool and that
  pool's limits (scan pace, LIGHTCRAFT_FACE_THREADS);
- other callers (the render workers, plain threads) render in parallel on a
  pool of rayon's default size (RAYON_NUM_THREADS, else the available
  parallelism), whose threads only render; where it can't start, they
  render alone too (no rayon, so no deadlock). Generating a scene never
  touches the global rayon pool (asking its size would start it, which
  panics where its threads can't start).
The scan's first render of a demo scene now takes 1 to 2.3 s on one
thread instead of 0.5 to 1.3 s on its light pace's two (M3 Max, 2560 px
preview source); interactive loads are unchanged.
A generation number gives each waiter the outcome of the generation it
waited for, even when a retry starts first. A render that panics is an
error for its callers (`scene_pixels` returns a Result) and the next
request tries again. No duplicates, no unbounded threads.

Tests (each waits with a timeout, so a deadlock fails instead of hanging):
rayon workers keep asking a 4-thread pool for a scene while it is generated
(24 replies counted, at least 4 overlapping; times out at 120 s on the
OnceLock code); a scene is rendered once however many ask (the first
version of this fix rendered 5 copies at once); a rayon worker renders
alone on its own thread; callers wait for the generation running; a failed
generation is an error and the next request retries; a retry never changes
the outcome waited for (state-level, and a racing retrier: 60 of 60
waiters got the retry's pixels on the previous version); in a process
whose global pool failed to start, a scene is still generated; the serial
render is the parallel one, pixel for pixel.

Subject: [PATCH 144/344] French catalog: plurals, paintable separators,
 percent format, two new strings
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

- "photo(s){}" printed "photos(s)s"-style text: the plural suffix now follows the noun ("photo{}"),
  as the Spanish catalog does; smart previews repeat it ({0}).
- Menu triangles (▸) in translations replaced by → (the shipped fonts have no ▸ glyph; test
  translated_catalogs_do_not_use_missing_menu_triangles).
- "{:.0} %" -> "{:.0}%" so the Merging progress test matches every language.
- Translate the two strings main added since the branch (Camera local tone mapping).
- README, docs/localization.md and the LR-BEHAV-LOCALE parity row list French.
- Test: French plural formatting.

Subject: [PATCH 145/344] LR-BEHAV-TEXTFIELD: the headless host has a clipboard

Text the UI copies lands in `HeadlessView::clipboard`, and a cut, copy
or paste request (`ViewportCommand::RequestCut/Copy/Paste`) comes back
as that event on the next frame, as egui-winit does on the desktop. UI
tests can now check copying and pasting in text fields.

Subject: [PATCH 146/344] LR-BEHAV-TEXTFIELD: a shared text field with a Cut /
 Copy / Paste menu

`text_field::TextField` is a standalone text field for every text box in
the app:
- right-click for Cut, Copy, Paste and Select All, shortcuts shown,
  acting on the selection the right-click would otherwise move (the
  browser build has no Paste item: a page cannot read the clipboard on
  request);
- Esc gives back the text from before the edit, also after using the
  menu;
- the caller learns how an edit ended (Return, focus away, Esc) and
  decides what that means; using the menu is not leaving the field;
- optionally everything is selected when it takes focus;
- an edit cut short when the field goes away is forgotten.

The menu replays egui's own Cut and Copy events and asks the host for a
paste, so passwords, character limits and undo work as egui does them.

From 1029e63bdeec7f64d6a19b257d72c64b25a9c975 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Nathaniel Ledford <nate@nateledford.com>
Date: Fri, 9 Oct 2026 12:34:28 -0400
Subject: [PATCH 147/344] LR-BEHAV-TEXTFIELD: agents cut, copy and paste in
 text fields
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

`ui.clipboard {action, text?}` does what the system does for ⌘X / ⌘C /
⌘V in the focused text field (egui-winit sends clipboard events, not
key presses, so `ui.key` with ⌘C could not), and `ui.inspect` reports
`copied`, the text the UI last put on the clipboard. MCP has the same
as the `clipboard` tool when the app is attached.

Subject: [PATCH 148/344] LR-BEHAV-HEADLESS: ui.clickWidget right-clicks with
 button "right"

`ui.click` took `button`, `ui.clickWidget` ignored it: MCP `click
{widget, button: "right"}` passes it on, and silently left-clicked.

Subject: [PATCH 149/344] LR-BEHAV-TEXTFIELD: the search field is a shared text
 field
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Search Photos gets the Cut / Copy / Paste / Select All menu, and Esc
gives back the search from before the edit (and filters by it again).
The field gains the builder options it needs (no frame, font, colour,
alignment, margin) and `text_field::id` for ⌘F to focus it.

Subject: [PATCH 150/344] LR-BEHAV-TEXTFIELD: a slider's typed value is a
 shared text field

The value typed after clicking a slider's number gets the Cut / Copy /
Paste / Select All menu (`sliderField:<control>`), and using the menu no
longer closes the field: it used to close as soon as anything took the
focus. Selecting the old value and Esc now come from the shared field;
`TextFieldResponse::editing` says an edit is under way, the menu
included.

Subject: [PATCH 151/344] LR-BEHAV-TEXTFIELD: the unnamed faces' name field is
 a shared text field

It gets the Cut / Copy / Paste / Select All menu, and Esc in it now
clears the selection as Clear does, as the code meant: it checked the
field's focus on the Esc frame, which egui has already taken away, so
Esc only left the field.

Subject: [PATCH 152/344] KEY-CLIPBOARD: Ctrl+C / Ctrl+V copy and paste
 settings on Windows and Linux
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

egui-winit turns Ctrl+C / Ctrl+X / Ctrl+V (with any other modifiers)
into clipboard events and drops the key press, so outside text fields
Copy Settings, Paste Settings and ⇧Ctrl+V (Paste Selected Settings)
never fired there; macOS was spared because its menu bar takes ⌘C / ⌘V
first. The shortcuts now read those events as the keys they were, as
the keymap editor already did when recording a shortcut.

Subject: [PATCH 154/344] LR-BEHAV-TEXTFIELD: a greyed-out menu item does
 nothing

The field's menu closed on any click, a greyed-out Cut or Copy too, and
the press had already taken the focus: the edit ended as if the user
had clicked away (a slider applied its half-typed value). The menu now
closes only on a choice or a click outside it. The test that said Cut
and Copy need a selection could not fail (egui copies nothing from an
empty selection anyway); it now checks the greyed-out items.

Subject: [PATCH 155/344] LR-BEHAV-TEXTFIELD: Return and Esc with the field's
 menu open

Return with the menu open left the edit hanging (the field gave up the
focus, taken for a click in the menu) and it ended later as Away: a
name field that submits on Return never submitted. It now ends the edit
as Return and closes the menu. Esc with the menu open, or with the
focus in the menu, cancelled the whole edit; it now closes only the
menu, as native menus do, and the field takes the focus back.

Subject: [PATCH 156/344] LR-BEHAV-TEXTFIELD: switching apps carries on with an
 edit

`Response::has_focus` is false while the window is in the background,
so switching to another app mid-edit forgot the text from before (Esc
then gave back the half-typed text), a select-on-focus field selected
everything again on coming back, and `editing` went false: a slider's
typed value applied and closed. The field now follows egui's own focus,
which the window's doesn't change.

Subject: [PATCH 158/344] LR-BEHAV-TEXTFIELD: a drag into a select-on-focus
 field keeps its selection

Select-on-focus selected everything on the press that took the focus,
after egui had placed the drag's anchor there: a drag then selected
from the start of the text. With a press, the field now waits for the
release and selects everything only after a plain click, as a
browser's address bar does.

 field
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

With no text field focused, `ui.clipboard` (and MCP `clipboard`) sent
the clipboard event to the app's shortcuts: it pasted edit settings on
Windows, Linux and in headless runs, and did nothing on macOS, whose
menu bar takes ⌘V. It is now refused there; agents run `develop.copy`
and `develop.paste` instead. The docs also say that cut and copy write
the system clipboard in the desktop app.

Subject: [PATCH 161/344] LR-BEHAV-TEXTFIELD: say what Ctrl+V needs and how
 fields are keyed

What's New and the KEY-CLIPBOARD row overstated the Windows / Linux
fix: Ctrl+V reaches the app only while the system clipboard holds text
(egui-winit drops it otherwise), and it never worked before, so not
"again". The text field's module doc says what it depends on, that its
widget id must be unique on screen, and that new text boxes use it; MCP
`click` lists `button`.

 are shared text fields

Title, Caption, Alt Text, Extended Description, Copyright, the usage
terms, the creator and the place fields get the Cut / Copy / Paste /
Select All menu. Esc now gives an edit up: it used to save the typed
text, since the field saved whenever it lost the focus. The caption and
other multi-line fields keep taking Return as a new line and save on
leaving; the shared field gains `rows` for them.

Subject: [PATCH 164/344] LR-BEHAV-TEXTFIELD: Rename Keyword's name field is a
 shared text field

It gets the Cut / Copy / Paste / Select All menu and opens with the
name selected, so typing replaces it. Return now renames: the field
took the focus back on every frame, so egui never reported the focus
Return gives up and only the OK button renamed. The field still keeps
the focus, except while its own menu has it; Esc still cancels the
dialog.

Subject: [PATCH 166/344] LR-BEHAV-TEXTFIELD: Return confirms the one-field
 dialogs
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

New Album, Rename Album, New Smart Album, Merge Keywords and the text
prompts (rename a preset or a version, …) had Rename Keyword's bug:
their field took the focus back on every frame, so egui never reported
the focus Return gives up, and Return did nothing; only OK confirmed.
All six now use one `dialog_field`: a shared text field that keeps the
focus except while its own menu has it, opens with its text selected
and reports Return. They get the Cut / Copy / Paste / Select All menu.

 - On Windows and Linux, Ctrl+C outside a text field copies edit settings and Ctrl+V pastes them (⇧Ctrl+V: Paste
   Selected Settings). Ctrl+V only reaches LightCraft while the system clipboard holds text; otherwise use Edit ▸ Paste Edit

Subject: [PATCH 169/344] LR-PROF-CAMERACOLOR: partial camera look when the
 full look misses the gates

A raw whose camera look fails the acceptance gates fell back to the neutral
rendering: dark (9-22 L* below the camera JPEG), about a third of its
colourfulness, hues from the generic camera = sRGB matrix. Before falling
back, fit a partial look: the quantile tone curve (registration-free), the
chroma curve and, on a scene with enough colour, the photo's own matrix at
half weight (no hue/saturation table). It is used only when it cuts the
held-out error to below 0.7 of the neutral fallback's (linear and encoded)
and the JPEG's luminance ranks the pixels like the scene's (Spearman >= 0.5).
The full look's gates and search are unchanged. Render cache version 24.

Subject: [PATCH 170/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: a keyword list that holds keywords
 without photos

Keywords existed only as `a|b|c` strings on photos: one couldn't be
created before a photo had it, nor a parent made to organize under.
The catalog now has a keyword list (`Op::SetKeyword`, format version
4): a keyword listed on its own is in the tree with no photos, its
parents too, and carries Lightroom Classic's keyword tag options
(`KeywordInfo`: synonyms, include on export, export containing
keywords, export synonyms, person), exported by default. Undo restores
what was listed, as it was written. Version 3 libraries open and are
rewritten as 4.

Subject: [PATCH 171/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: rename, merge and delete carry the
 keyword list along

Renaming or moving a keyword takes its listing and its listed children
along, photos or not; a keyword only the list holds can be renamed too.
Merging keeps the target's attributes and gathers the synonyms (a
target not listed yet takes the merged keyword's attributes). Deleting
takes the keyword and those below it off the list. Each is still one
undo step: the list's changes join the photos' in the batch.

Subject: [PATCH 172/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: renaming keeps the levels below
 whatever the case
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Renaming a keyword cut the keywords below it at the byte length of the
name as typed. Names match whatever their case, but some letters change
length with it (ẞ is three bytes, ß two): `STRAẞE` → `Road` turned
`straße|nord` into `Roadnord`, and a cut inside a letter would panic.
The levels below are now kept whole.

Subject: [PATCH 173/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: create, move, edit and purge
 keywords

The keyword list's own actions, each one undo step:
- create a keyword with its attributes, and tag photos with it at once;
  one that exists already (listed or on a photo) is refused;
- move a keyword (with those below it) inside another or to the top
  level; never inside itself or its children, and onto a name that is
  taken only when merging is allowed (`CatalogError::KeywordExists`
  otherwise, so the UI can ask);
- edit: rename its last level and set its attributes together; a taken
  name is refused, merging being its own action;
- purge: take off the list the keywords no photo has.
Typed in any case, keywords keep the spelling the library has
(`keyword_path`).

Subject: [PATCH 174/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: the keywords an exported file
 carries

`Catalog::export_keywords` applies Lightroom Classic's keyword tag
options: a keyword left out of export goes nowhere; otherwise its name
and the keywords containing it that are exported themselves (unless
"export containing keywords" is off) and its synonyms (unless "export
synonyms" is off) go out flat, for `dc:subject`, and its full path for
`lr:hierarchicalSubject`. Each name once, whatever its case.

Subject: [PATCH 176/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: the keyword filter follows a rename
 without panicking
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

When a keyword was renamed or merged, the keyword filter followed it by
cutting the old name off by bytes: names match whatever their case, and
where a letter's case changes its length (ẞ / ß) the cut could land
inside a letter and panic (`ẞẞA` → `Road` with the filter on `ßßa|é`).
It now uses the catalog's level-based `reparent`.

Subject: [PATCH 177/344] LR-PROF-CAMERACOLOR: Sony ARWs shot with DRO start
 without the camera JPEG's lifted shadows (#244)

Sony's Dynamic Range Optimizer (factory default Auto) brightens the darker
regions of the camera JPEG, not the raw. The tone curve fitted to that JPEG
carried the brightening into the raw's starting look: on 8 ILCE-7CR photos
with DRO on, LightCraft rendered +6.4 L* from Lightroom's default (median
dE76 7.5), against -0.2 L* (3.6) for the 16 with DRO off.

- lightcraft_raw::embedded_preview_dynamic_range_optimized reads Sony
  maker-note tag 0xb025 (every documented value: 0 off; 1-3, 8-12 and
  16-23, i.e. up to Lv8, on). It was present on all 264 Sony raws checked
  (98 bodies); 0xb04f only says on/off and is missing on older bodies.
- With DRO on, the look keeps the colour fitted to the JPEG and its tone
  curve is lowered, knot by knot, to Sony's curve without DRO wherever that
  is darker (assets/camera-tone/sony-dro-off.json, pooled from 12 CC0
  raw.pixls.us ARWs of 10 interchangeable-lens bodies; sources and
  derivation in the file and assets/ATTRIBUTION.md). The second-last knot
  is lowered only as far as keeps the shoulder past the last knot at or
  below the fitted curve, so the result is never brighter anywhere.
  Compacts that map raw values darker keep their own curve.
- DRO off, unknown and other makers: unchanged (byte-identical renders on
  71 + 35 photos). Render cache version 23.

DRO-on photos now land at +0.8 L* from Lightroom (median dE76 3.3), band by
band like the DRO-off ones. Docs: camera-preview-colour.md, parity row.

 One photo can show too little of a colour for its own fit to learn it: in a second shot of the lime shirt only a few dozen proxy pixels show it, next to a hillside of foliage at the same hue that the camera renders differently, and the shirt stayed yellow (hue 68° against the JPEG's 82°; a 192-pixel proxy only reached 74°). `lightcraft-cli calibrate [--max N] [--out DIR] FOLDERS…` therefore pools the colour pairs of many ARWs, NEFs or RAFs per camera model — each against its own embedded JPEG, at a 192-pixel proxy, at most 4000 pairs per photo, files spread evenly over the folders — and fits one matrix (from white-balanced camera RGB, so no single photo's white point is baked in) and one hue/saturation/value table. Models need at least 5 usable photos.

+## Sony Dynamic Range Optimizer (DRO)
+
+Sony bodies apply DRO, a local tone operator that brightens darker regions, to their JPEG (and the preview embedded in the ARW) only; the raw data are unchanged, and the factory default is DRO Auto. The tone curve fitted to that JPEG carried the brightening into the raw's starting look, so DRO photos opened lighter than in Lightroom, darktable, Photomator or Affinity, which develop the raw without it (issue #244). On 24 ILCE-7CR photos (Standard creative style) with Lightroom 9.5.1 default exports, mean L* at 200 px: with DRO off, Lightroom matches the camera JPEG (+0.15 L*, all within ±1.4) and LightCraft matches Lightroom (−0.19 L*, median ΔE76 3.6); with DRO Lv3 or Auto (8 photos), Lightroom is 2.4–10.7 L* darker than the camera JPEG and LightCraft followed the JPEG, +6.4 L* from Lightroom (median ΔE76 7.5). The tone curves fitted to 131 ILCE-7CR photos show where: at scene luminance 0.01, 0.02, 0.05 and 0.1 the median DRO Lv3/Auto curve is 8, 10, 9 and 6 L* above the DRO-off one, and from 0.3 up they agree.
+
+The ARW decoder reads the setting from maker-note tag `0xb025` (ExifTool's Sony tag documentation: 0 Off; 1 Standard, 2 Advanced Auto, 3 Auto, 8–12 Advanced Lv1–5, 16–23 Lv1–8; other values are treated as unknown). It was present on all 264 Sony raws checked (98 bodies, DSLR-A100 to ILCE-7CR); the second tag of that name, `0xb04f`, only says off or on and is missing on the older bodies. With DRO on, the look keeps the colour fitted to the JPEG (matrix, hue/saturation table, chroma curve) and its tone curve is lowered, knot by knot, to Sony's curve without DRO wherever that is darker (`assets/camera-tone/sony-dro-off.json`, listed in `assets/ATTRIBUTION.md`). Past its last knot a curve continues as a shoulder whose rate comes from its last two knots, so the second-last knot is lowered only as far as keeps that shoulder at or below the fitted one; the result is never brighter than the fitted curve at any scene luminance. Sony's curve is quantile-matched, as one photo's tone is, over the pooled pairs of 12 CC0 raw.pixls.us ARWs shot with DRO off and the Standard creative style on 10 interchangeable-lens bodies (ILCE-3500, -5000, -6600, -7M3, -7S, -7CR, -9M2, ILCA-77M2, SLT-A57, NEX-F3; the file lists their URLs and SHA-256); pooled the same way from 55 private ILCE-7CR photos with DRO off, the curve differs by at most 1.2 L* between scene luminance 0.01 and 0.5. DRO only brightens, so the photo's own curve bounds the curve without it from above: the 1″ compacts map raw values darker (with DRO off, the DSC-RX100M2, -RX100M5 and -RX10M4 curves lie 8–16 L* below Sony's at scene luminance 0.18) and keep their own curve where it is the darker one. Photos with DRO off or unknown, and other makers, are unchanged.
+
+Measured before → after (mean L* and CIE76 ΔE at 200 px): on the 24 ILCE-7CR photos with Lightroom references, the 8 with DRO on go from +6.4 L* (+4.4 to +10.5) to +0.8 L* (−0.4 to +1.9) against Lightroom's default, median ΔE 7.5 → 3.3; by Lightroom lightness band (L* 0–25, 25–50, 50–75, 75–100) they now differ from it by +2.3, +1.4, −0.8 and −3.0 L* (before +7.8, +9.4, +3.8, −0.8), like the 16 with DRO off (+2.5, −0.1, −2.0, −3.2), which render byte-identically. Of all 131 ILCE-7CR photos, the 56 fitted with DRO on now render 6.1 L* darker than their camera JPEGs on average (0.3 lighter before), as Lightroom renders the measured ones 5.7 L* darker; the 71 with DRO off are byte-identical. Of 116 CC0 Sony files from 100 bodies, 79 were shot with DRO on (71 of them Auto); the 57 changed of the 69 fitted ones render 2.1 L* darker on average (at most 10.8), the 12 others (six compacts, four ILCE-7M4 shots in Vivid, an ILCE-1 and an ILCE-7RM4, whose own curves are already darker) and all 35 DRO-off files are unchanged. The issue's ILCE-7M3 file goes from +0.8 to −6.5 L* against its camera JPEG. Applied to photos shot with DRO off, whose JPEG shows the camera's own curve, the rule would move the 68 fitted ILCE-7CR photos by −0.4 L* (median; at most −4.1) and 25 of 28 fitted CC0 ones by at most −1.8 L*; the exceptions are an ILCE-3500 (−4.7) and the cine bodies FX3 and FX30 (−7.2 and −5.1), whose picture profiles are not the Standard style.
+
+Picture styles other than Standard are lowered to the Standard curve too where it is darker; Lightroom ignores them as well. Nikon Active D-Lighting, Canon Auto Lighting Optimizer and Fujifilm D-Range settings are likely to have the same effect and are not handled yet. Render cache version 23 redraws thumbnails; smart previews built before keep the brightened tone curve in their header until rebuilt.

 ## Nikon crop and preview colour metadata
 
 Nikon maker-note `CropArea` (0x0045) supplies the default `[left, top, width, height]` crop. The decoder validates the rectangle against the active sensor area and falls back to that area for missing or invalid values. The CFA origin is unchanged; cropping follows demosaicing.

Subject: [PATCH 178/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: keyword list commands and the
 default parent
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

- `keyword.create {name, parent?, attributes…, addToSelected?}`: a
  keyword inside a parent with its attributes, given to the selection
  at once; one undo step.
- `keyword.edit {keyword, name?, attributes…}`: what isn't given keeps
  its value.
- `keyword.move {keyword, parent | null, merge?}`: onto a taken name
  it says so, and merges only with `merge: true`.
- `keyword.purgeUnused`, `keyword.info` (attributes, listed, count).
- `keyword.setDefaultParent` (Lightroom Classic's "Put New Keywords
  Inside this Keyword"): new keywords go inside it unless `parent` is
  given (null = the top level). It is kept with the library, follows
  its keyword's rename or move, and goes when the keyword is deleted.

Subject: [PATCH 179/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: exported files carry keywords as
 their options say

Export wrote each keyword's `a|b` path into `dc:subject` and nothing
into `lr:hierarchicalSubject`. It now writes what
`Catalog::export_keywords` gives: names flat in `dc:subject` (with the
keywords containing them and synonyms, as their options say), full
paths in `lr:hierarchicalSubject`, and nothing of a keyword left out
of export. `export_metadata` takes the catalog for the keyword list.

Subject: [PATCH 180/344] KEY-ZOOM: Cmd+= / Cmd+- / Cmd+0 zoom the photo, not
 egui's interface scale (#566)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

egui's zoom_with_keyboard was left on, so at the end of every frame it took the
same keys as View ▸ Zoom In / Zoom Out / Zoom to Fit for its browser-style
interface zoom. On macOS the native menu bar got the keys first; on Windows and
Linux the whole UI scaled. theme::apply turns the option off for every context
(desktop, headless, tests).

Headless tests that pressed Cmd+Plus / Cmd+Minus to exercise the interface
zoom's viewport handling set the zoom factor directly; the CLI snapshot test
that did the same is dropped (the unit tests cover the mechanism). New
tests_zoom_keys.rs: the shortcuts step the photo zoom while the zoom factor
stays, and Ctrl+wheel over the photo zooms it in the Edit view.

Subject: [PATCH 181/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: keyword names match whatever the
 case of any letter
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

`is_under` and `dedupe` compared names by lower-casing them, but other
checks used `eq_ignore_ascii_case`: changing only the case of "Ärzte"
was refused as a clash with itself, and moving a keyword where it is
wasn't seen as staying put. Every comparison now uses
`keywords::same`.

Subject: [PATCH 182/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: a Keyword List in the right panel

The Keywords panel ends with Lightroom Classic's Keyword List: every
keyword of the library, those without photos too, as a tree with photo
counts (`panels::keyword_list`).
- A filter box keeps the keywords whose name holds the text, with the
  keywords containing them opened down to them.
- The triangle opens a level (kept with the UI state).
- The tick box says whether every, some (a dash) or none of the
  selected photos have the keyword, and gives it to all of them or
  takes it away.
- The arrow shown on hover shows the photos with the keyword.
- A click picks a row, for the actions that follow.

Subject: [PATCH 183/344] LR-PREF-DISPLAY: monitor ICC profiles (display colour
 management)

Previews were always sRGB, which wide-gamut monitors show oversaturated.
Settings > Display > Choose Profile... (and the UI command
app.displayProfile) now shows photos through the monitor's ICC profile,
matrix/TRC or LUT-based.

- codecs: DisplayProfile (moxcms): the display's primaries (colorant tags,
  or measured through the A2B tables of a LUT-only profile), the proxy ->
  device correction (per-channel curve tables for matrix/TRC profiles, a
  CMS transform for LUT profiles) and sRGB <-> display transforms.
- pipeline: DisplaySpace / RenderRequest::display: the per-pixel stage
  renders into the display's primaries and gamut maps into its gamut
  (CPU and GPU: only to_out / out_luma change). Soft proofing's display
  gamut warning uses the display's gamut.
- engine: RenderJob::with_display; display::present converts sRGB
  results (thumbnails, cached previews, embedded JPEGs). Histograms and
  the preview caches stay sRGB; exports are unchanged.
- ui: the loupe, Before, Compare, hover and second window render for the
  display; everything else is converted on the render workers. Settings >
  Display tab, ui.json setting, file picker opening in the system's ICC
  folder.

Tests: profile parsing and transforms (sRGB, P3, gamma 2.2, a synthetic
LUT-only profile, corrupted files), display renders equal 8-bit renders
into the matching output space, sampled histograms, and a headless UI test
of the whole flow. docs/display-profiles.md describes the design.

+# Display (monitor) profiles
+
+LightCraft can show photos through the monitor's ICC profile, so colours are right on wide-gamut and calibrated
+displays. Without one, previews are sRGB, which a wide-gamut panel shows oversaturated.
+
+## Using it
+
+Settings ▸ Display ▸ **Choose Profile…** picks an `.icc` / `.icm` file (the dialog opens where the system keeps
+them: `~/.local/share/icc` on Linux, ColorSync's folders on macOS, `…\spool\drivers\color` on Windows). **Use sRGB**
+goes back to no profile. The choice is an app setting (`ui.json`, `displayProfile`) and applies at once; a file that
+can't be used is reported there and previews stay sRGB.
+
+Agents and scripts: `app.displayProfile {"path": "/path/to/monitor.icc"}` (`""` or `null`: none; no `path`: report
+only) returns `{path, description, kind: "matrix" | "lut", primaries: {red, green, blue: [x, y]}}`.
+
+## How it works
+
+- **The loupe renders into the display's gamut.** Views (Detail, Before, Compare / Reference, preset and profile
+  hover, the second window) ask the pipeline for a render in the display's own primaries
+  (`lightcraft_pipeline::DisplaySpace`, `RenderRequest::display`): the per-pixel stage converts from the working space
+  to the display's linear RGB, gamut maps into *its* gamut and encodes with the sRGB curve, on the CPU and the GPU
+  alike (only `FinishParams::to_out` / `out_luma` change). Colours an sRGB render would clip stay as saturated as the
+  display can show. For a display that is exactly a standard space the result equals an 8-bit render into that space.
+- **Then to the display's device values** (`lightcraft_codecs::display::DisplayProfile::correct`): for a matrix/TRC
+  profile, three 256-entry tables from the sRGB curve to the profile's tone curves (nothing at all when they are the
+  sRGB curve, as for Display P3); for a LUT-based profile, a `moxcms` transform through its B2A tables. A LUT-only
+  profile (no colorant tags) gets its primaries measured through its A2B tables.
+- **Everything made for sRGB is converted** (`lightcraft_engine::display::present`, on the render workers):
+  thumbnails, cached view previews, embedded camera JPEGs and merge previews.
+- **What stays sRGB:** the histogram (of the same sampled pixels, converted back to sRGB), the rendered-thumbnail and
+  view-preview caches (a profile change doesn't invalidate them), exports, and the UI itself.
+- **Soft proofing:** the blue "display" gamut warning shows what the monitor can't show, from its profile.
+- Conversions are relative colorimetric: the display's white is the image's white.
+
+## Cost
+
+Measured on a 2-core cloud VM, 2560 × 1707 preview: the tone-curve tables take about 5 ms (single-threaded); converting the sampled
+histogram pixels a few ms; the sRGB copy for the view-preview cache (full-quality renders only) about 30 ms; a
+LUT-based profile's correction about 65 ms. Drafts during slider drags skip the full sRGB copy.
+
+## Not yet
+
+- Picking up the profile the operating system assigns (X11 `_ICC_PROFILE`, colord, ColorSync, WCS) and following
+  the window across monitors with different profiles.

Subject: [PATCH 184/344] M1: retain selection after permanent photo deletion

Reuse the landed current-view deletion selection logic for photo.deletePermanently, retaining survivors or choosing the next neighbour and the previous at the end. Preserve catalog-only deletion and existing undo/persistence behavior.

Subject: [PATCH 185/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: create, edit and delete keywords
 from the Keyword List
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

- The + button opens Create Keyword Tag: a name, synonyms, "Put inside"
  the keyword picked in the list (or the default parent), "Add to
  Selected Photos", and the keyword tag options (Include on Export,
  Export Containing Keywords, Export Synonyms, Person). Return creates
  it; a name that is taken says so and keeps the dialog open.
- Double-clicking a keyword opens Edit Keyword Tag with its name and
  attributes; a new name and options apply in one undo step.
- The − button deletes the picked keyword after saying how many photos
  lose it.
The name takes the focus once when the dialog opens: the one-field
dialogs' `dialog_field` takes it back every frame, which would steal it
from Synonyms.

Subject: [PATCH 186/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: the parent of a listed keyword is a
 keyword too

"Events" of a listed "Events|Weddings" is in the tree, but
`has_keyword` and `keyword_path` only looked at photos and the listing
itself: it couldn't be renamed, moved or made the default parent. They
now find a keyword through the listed keywords below it as well.

Subject: [PATCH 188/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: reorganize keywords by drag and
 drop

In the Keyword List:
- dragging a keyword onto another nests it there, with the keywords
  below it and its photos; dropping it on the list's title (which
  says "Drop here for the top level" during the drag) takes it to the
  top level;
- a keyword is never outlined, nor dropped, inside itself or one of
  its children;
- where a keyword of its name is already, a dialog asks before merging
  the two;
- photos dragged from the grid onto a keyword get it.
The dragged keyword's name follows the pointer; the drag ends with the
button's release, wherever it is.

Subject: [PATCH 189/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: document the Keyword List

The LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS row lists the Keyword List, its commands and what
isn't there yet; LR-LIB-KEYWORD no longer says keywords can't be
dragged. What's New describes the list, its dialogs, drag and drop and
the export options.

Monochrome, singular, unrelated and aspect-mismatched references retain the documented fallback; poor-fitting ones get the partial look below when it is clearly closer to the camera JPEG. Both fits use the same fixed proxy at every decode resolution.
+
+**A partial look when the full look misses the gates.** The neutral fallback (camera RGB taken as sRGB, the default tone map) is far from the camera JPEG. Rendered for every photo on this path in the CC0 archive (1,150 files with a camera JPEG), it is 10.7 L\* too dark (median; about one stop), keeps 0.36 of the camera's colourfulness and has hues 7° off on the coloured pixels (median CIEDE2000 13.6). Its white balance is right: on the pixels the camera renders near-neutral the cast is under 1 a\*/b\* (median, every maker). The "blue" fallback on newer Sony bodies (Δb\* −22 over the whole frame on the ILCE-7RM5 sample) is a warm scene losing its colour, not a cast: its near-neutral pixels are within −1.6 b\*. So before falling back, a partial look is fitted (`fit_partial`): the quantile tone curve (registration-free, the largest part of the error), the chroma curve, and, when the scene has enough colour to learn a matrix (the full look's condition), the photo's own colour matrix at half weight, the other half the identity (`PARTIAL_MATRIX_WEIGHT`). No hue/saturation table. Half weight because, on the held-out proxy pixels of the 23 colourful photos without a look, the full matrix left 2 of them more than 2° further from the camera's hues than the neutral fallback and half weight none (median hue error 9.6° with the generic colour, 5.1° at half weight, 4.2° at full weight; on the 1,080 photos with a look 3.9° and 2.7°). Without a matrix (tone and chroma curve alone, or with one global saturation scale) about a third of all photos ended up more than 2° further from the camera's hues than the fallback, as the added colour makes the generic matrix's hue errors visible. The partial look is tried on all pixels, then away from edges, and used only when it cuts the held-out squared error below 0.7 of the neutral fallback's in linear and in gamma-encoded display values, and when the JPEG's luminance ranks the pixels like the scene's (Spearman ≥ 0.5, `PARTIAL_MIN_RANK_CORRELATION`): a curve matched to the brightness of an unrelated picture also beats the dark fallback pixel for pixel. The accepted full looks have 0.55 or more; three old Coolpix files whose raws decode wrongly have 0.07–0.27 and keep the fallback. There is no limit on the partial look's own error. On the archive (1,783 renders): all 1,087 full looks are byte-identical; of the 55 photos that reach the partial fit, 49 get it (40 on all pixels, 9 away from edges; 13 with the damped matrix, 41 with a chroma curve) and 6 keep the fallback (lens-corrected compacts: RX10, TZ80 1:1, D-LUX 4, G10 16:9, GF2 ×2). On the 49, median CIEDE2000 to the camera JPEG 14.0 → 2.1, ΔL\* −11.5 → +0.6, colourfulness 0.36 → 0.87, hue error 10.1° → 7.1°; every one is closer, by at least 1.3. Most of the others without a look never reach a fit: on 48 files (Nikon D4, Df, D300/D300S, D7000, D5100 and others) the camera JPEG proxy comes out a pixel narrower than the sensor proxy and no pairs are collected (the resize in PR #531 fixes this; with it 46 of them pass the full look's gates, CIEDE2000 17.9 → 2.9).

Subject: [PATCH 191/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: photos in Recently Deleted don't
 hold keywords

The tree and the counts leave out photos in Recently Deleted (and those
only browsed), but `keyword_path`, `has_keyword` and purging read every
photo: a keyword only a deleted photo had couldn't be created again,
wasn't purged, and could lend its spelling. They now read library
photos only, as the tree does.

Subject: [PATCH 192/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: merging overlapping keywords keeps
 every listing

Merging `a|b` and `a|c` into `a` moved the listings one at a time: the
`a|b|c` listing landed on `a|c` before that one left for `a`, merged
into it, and its attributes were lost. Every moving listing now leaves
first, then each lands. Each keyword also moves by the closest keyword
merged (`a|b` before `a`), so the order they are given in doesn't
change the result; the keyword filter follows the same way.

Subject: [PATCH 193/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: the default parent belongs to its
 keyword in the library

"Put New Keywords Inside This Keyword" was a session preference that
followed renames by hand: undo and redo never moved it back, so after
undoing a rename it named a keyword that no longer existed and the
next new keyword silently made that parent again. It is now a mark on
the keyword in the catalog's keyword list (`new_keywords_inside`, one
keyword at most): it moves with its keyword (into a merge too), goes
with it, comes back with undo and redo, and is kept with the library.
Setting it is one undo step.

Subject: [PATCH 194/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: the filter follows a keyword moved
 into a new parent

`keyword.move` worked out where the keyword landed from the parent's
spelling in the library, and fell back to the top level when the
parent didn't exist yet, while the catalog made that parent: the
keyword filter stayed on the old path and the grid showed nothing. It
now lands the filter where the catalog puts the keyword.

Subject: [PATCH 195/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: keywords from files keep their
 hierarchy

Exports now write names to `dc:subject` and paths to
`lr:hierarchicalSubject`, as Lightroom Classic does, but import and
sidecars read only `dc:subject`: an exported `travel|Italy|Rome` came
back as three keywords, Rome, Italy and travel. They now take the
paths of `lr:hierarchicalSubject` and the names of `dc:subject` that
aren't levels of those paths (`keywords::from_file`); without paths,
the names as they are, so LightCraft's own sidecars read as before.

Subject: [PATCH 196/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: keywords given to photos are stored
 cleaned

`photo.setMeta` stored keywords as given: " beach " showed in the tree
as "beach" but couldn't be found there (Edit, Move, Delete said there
was no such keyword), and duplicates were caught by ASCII case only.
Keywords are now stored cleaned (`a | b ` is `a|b`, empty ones are
dropped), each once whatever the case of any letter, and removing one
matches it the same way.

+### Codex
+
+The macOS release includes a separate `lightcraft-cli-<version>-macos-universal.zip`;
+unpack it alongside the desktop app if you do not want to build from source. Use the CLI
+and app from the same release. Verify both downloads against that release's `SHA256SUMS.txt`.
+
+Register the CLI's stdio server with Codex using its **absolute** installed path:
+
+```sh
+# Headless: a persistent library whose edits survive MCP restarts.
+codex mcp add lightcraft -- "/absolute/path/lightcraft-cli" mcp --library "/absolute/path/library"
+
+# Live desktop: start the app on the matching loopback port first.
+"/absolute/path/LightCraft.app/Contents/MacOS/LightCraft" --library "/absolute/path/library" --control 7980
+codex mcp add lightcraft-app -- "/absolute/path/lightcraft-cli" mcp --connect 127.0.0.1:7980
+```
+
+Choose one mode for a library: a headless server cannot open a library already locked by
+the desktop app. Connect mode edits the window's actual library and reconnects after the
+app restarts. An external library path keeps the catalog on that drive. Copy/move imports
+default to the library's `Originals/` folder; add-mode imports keep the originals at their
+existing paths. The library path does not relocate settings, logs or optional models (see
+the README's settings/log locations). Make sure an external drive is mounted before
+starting either process.
+
+`codex mcp list` confirms registration, not a successful tool call. After adding the server,
+restart the client's MCP connections and verify `doc_inspect` or `query_photos` against the
+expected library before editing. Configuration options are in the
+[Codex MCP documentation](https://developers.openai.com/codex/mcp/).
+
 ### Other clients (Claude Desktop, Cursor, …)
 
 Every stdio MCP client takes the same shape: a `command` plus `args`. For example

Subject: [PATCH 198/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: a new keyword keeps the spelling of
 its parents

Creating "TRAVEL|Rome" next to "travel|italy" listed it as typed, and
the tree, which takes a level's spelling from the list first, showed
"TRAVEL". A new keyword now takes the library's spelling of each level
it shares with a keyword there.

Editing a keyword without changing it listed it (when it wasn't) and
made an undo step. The attributes are now set only when they change
something: a keyword only photos have, renamed with the default

Subject: [PATCH 201/344] LR-IMP-CAMERA-COVERAGE: Sony ILCE-7CR samples in the
 corpus

Three CC0 raw.pixls.us files of one ILCE-7CR (61 MP) scene: lossless
compressed L and M (subsampled YCbCr) and compressed ARW2. A raw corpus
test pins model, colour-filter layout, black level, white level, as-shot
gains and default crop, and checks that the lossless and compressed
mosaics agree inside the crop (green block correlation 0.9976). An engine
corpus test checks each gets a fitted camera look, not the neutral
fallback. All nine public codings decode and fit (mean dE76 1.59 against
their camera JPEGs).

Subject: [PATCH 202/344] LR-IMP-CAMERA-COVERAGE: ILCE-7CR test pins the black
 level of Bayer codings only

The YCbCr M coding's pedestal is corrected separately (#535, item 3), so
this test no longer depends on which change lands first.

Subject: [PATCH 203/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: keyword actions count the photos
 they change

Rename, merge and delete answered `changed` with every change they
made, so with the keyword list it no longer meant photos (renaming a
keyword no photo has said 2). `changed` is photos again, and `listed`
counts the keyword list's changes (what Purge reports).

Subject: [PATCH 204/344] LR-PROF-CAMERACOLOR: bundled Sony ILCE-7CR camera
 profile

Fitted with `lightcraft-cli calibrate` to 125 usable ILCE-7CR ARWs (of 131,
September 2025 to September 2026, Standard creative style) and their
in-camera JPEGs; aggregate colour statistics only.

Without it, 8 of the 131 photos fail the fit gates and open with the
neutral matrix (dE76 6-26 against the camera JPEG). On 26 withheld photos
(profile fitted to the other 105) mean dE76 goes 4.07 -> 3.29 and both
withheld rejections are accepted (26.0 -> 6.1, 6.2 -> 5.5); the 24
withheld photos whose own fit was accepted are about unchanged (12
improve, mean 3.06 -> 3.08, worst regression 1.8). With the final profile
all 131 are accepted. The nine public raw.pixls.us ILCE-7CR codings stay
accepted (mean 1.59 -> 1.99).

A corpus test checks the public lossless-L sample's fit keeps exactly the
built-in profile's matrix and table.

 One photo can show too little of a colour for its own fit to learn it: in a second shot of the lime shirt only a few dozen proxy pixels show it, next to a hillside of foliage at the same hue that the camera renders differently, and the shirt stayed yellow (hue 68° against the JPEG's 82°; a 192-pixel proxy only reached 74°). `lightcraft-cli calibrate [--max N] [--out DIR] FOLDERS…` therefore pools the colour pairs of many ARWs, NEFs or RAFs per camera model — each against its own embedded JPEG, at a 192-pixel proxy, at most 4000 pairs per photo, files spread evenly over the folders — and fits one matrix (from white-balanced camera RGB, so no single photo's white point is baked in) and one hue/saturation/value table. Models need at least 5 usable photos.

Built-in profiles live in `assets/camera-profiles/` (listed in `assets/ATTRIBUTION.md`) and are compiled in, so the app, CLI and web build share them: ILCE-7M4, fitted to 597 photos (2.2 million colour pairs) shot in 2026, mostly with the Standard creative style and DRO Auto; X-H2S, 201 photos; X-T4, 545 photos.

Files are read once per process and validated (version, bounded invertible matrix, table shape and finite data); a damaged file is ignored with a warning.

+Fitted from 125 usable photos of 131 ILCE-7CR ARWs (one photographer, September 2025 to September 2026, Standard creative style with DRO off, Lv3 or Auto; 127 uncompressed, 2 compressed, 2 lossless compressed), 448,230 colour pairs. Measured as above: rendered at 1200 px with `lightcraft-cli render`, mean CIE76 ΔE against each file's embedded JPEG at 200 px.
+
+Without a profile, 123 of the 131 photos accept their own fit; the other 8 open with the neutral fallback at ΔE 6–26. For validation every fifth photo in sorted name order (26) was withheld and a profile fitted to the other 105 (100 usable). On the withheld photos mean ΔE went from 4.07 with per-file fitting to 3.29 with the profile. Both withheld photos whose own fit is rejected are accepted (ΔE 26.0 → 6.1 on a night scene, 6.2 → 5.5). Withheld photos whose own fit was accepted are about unchanged and move both ways: 12 of 24 improve, mean ΔE 3.06 → 3.08, largest regression 1.8. On that photo (gold tinsel bokeh) the profile turns a blue light blue again where the per-file fit had made it teal, but renders the gold slightly more saturated than the camera. With the final profile all 131 photos are accepted, and the 8 previously rejected ones land at ΔE 1.3–5.7; that comparison is in-sample.
+
+The nine public raw.pixls.us ILCE-7CR files are one scene in every coding the camera writes (uncompressed, lossless compressed L, M and S, compressed, full frame and APS-C crop). They were not used for fitting. All nine accept their own fit at ΔE 1.3–2.1 and stay accepted with the profile, at ΔE 1.5–2.9 (mean 1.59 → 1.99). On this colourful daylight scene the per-file fit is already close. The subsampled M and S codings, which decode with unity white-balance gains, move most (2.0 → 2.8). This is a camera-JPEG look estimate like the others, not measured calibration or Lightroom parity.

 ## Nikon crop and preview colour metadata
 
 Nikon maker-note `CropArea` (0x0045) supplies the default `[left, top, width, height]` crop. The decoder validates the rectangle against the active sensor area and falls back to that area for missing or invalid values. The CFA origin is unchanged; cropping follows demosaicing.

Subject: [PATCH 205/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: the Keyword List stays fast with a
 big selection

Every row worked out its tick box from every selected photo's keywords,
every frame: with 20,000 photos selected a frame took seconds. `Ticks`
now counts each keyword over the selection once, cached by library
revision and selection, and each row looks its count up: 2.8 ms a
frame for 20,024 selected photos. The check that the picked keyword
still exists reads the cached tree instead of scanning every photo.

Subject: [PATCH 206/344] LR-IMP-CAMERA-COVERAGE: Sony black levels from the
 SR2 layout and the lossless M/S pedestal

Part of #535 (items 2 and 3).

- SR2SubIFD black level: decrypt the directory's first entry (always the
  black level, 0x7310) to find where its value sits, and decrypt it with the
  keystream known for that position (1638, 2166, 2418, 2510). The fixed read at
  2510 gave 354-365 on the DSLR-A450/A500/A550 and 975 on the DSLR-A700, where
  ExifTool and the data floor say 512 (A700 render: dE 20.1 -> 8.8,
  dL* -9.8 -> 0.0). Keystreams recovered black-box (plain 0x7310 and exiftool -v3
  as known plaintext), consistent over 115 ARWs from 97 bodies, 15 layouts.
- Downsized lossless M/S ARWs (linear YCbCr): black 1024 and white 16895, i.e.
  the recorded 512 plus 512, measured against same-scene full-size codings on
  12 files from 4 bodies (offset 1015-1052, scale 0.98-1.02). The 512 pedestal
  lifted shadows by ~3 % of white; M/S renders now match their full-size twins
  (7RM5 M dE 6.7 -> 3.1).
- Only these 16 of 140 Sony files change; render cache version 24.
- Tests: synthetic SR2 blocks for every known layout (incl. the A700 trap),
  YCbCr black/white; corpus test of black levels against the data floor;
  A500 and A700 samples added to the corpus list.

Subject: [PATCH 207/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: drops land only on what is shown

The Keyword List took a drop wherever the pointer was inside a row's or
the title's rectangle, even where the panel had scrolled it out of
sight: a keyword released over the app's top bar, where the list's
title was hidden, went to the top level. Drops now need the pointer on
the visible part of the panel too; photos dropped from the grid alike.

Subject: [PATCH 208/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: the Keyword List needs no selection

With no photo active the whole right panel said "No photo selected",
so the library's Keyword List disappeared: keywords couldn't be made
or organized before choosing a photo. The Keywords panel now shows the
list without a selection (its tick boxes wait for one), under a note
that selecting photos gives them keywords.

Subject: [PATCH 209/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: Return in Synonyms creates the
 keyword

In Create / Edit Keyword Tag only the name field answered Return: typed
synonyms followed by Return did nothing. Return in Synonyms now creates
(or saves) the keyword too, as a dialog's default button does.

Subject: [PATCH 210/344] LR-IMP-CAMERA-COVERAGE: Sony ARW white balance and
 black level from one SR2SubIFD decryptor

Part of #535 (item 1). Stacked on #542 (SR2 black levels); supersedes its
positional keystream tables.

- White balance is WB_RGGBLevels (0x7313), the gains the camera applied:
  the raw IFD's plain copy when present, else the copy in the encrypted
  SR2SubIFD, which every ARW from the DSLR-A200 on carries (identical to
  the plain one on all 57 CC0 files that have both). The maker note's
  Tag2010 gains stay only as a last resort.
- 14 bodies had no white balance and rendered green whenever the camera
  look was rejected (A450 ... A700, NEX-3/5/C3, SLT-A33/A35/A55,
  ILCE-6001, UMC-R10C). On others Tag2010 missed the applied gains by up
  to 100 % (ILCE-3500 at 5600 K: R -31 / B +101 % against the camera
  JPEG's neutral pixels, now +4 / +0 %; ILCE-7S on Shade -9 / +15 ->
  -1 / +1 %; SLT-A57 -25 / +26 -> -6 / -3 %).
- New vendor/sr2.rs decrypts the whole SR2SubIFD, found black-box:
  exiftool -v5's decrypted dump as known plaintext gives the keystream
  (key 11 22 33 44, the same at every position in 126 CC0 ARWs from 97
  bodies, 15 layouts); an exhaustive search over lag pairs found
  k[n] = k[n-63] ^ k[n-127] on 32-bit words, so the first 127 words
  generate the rest, matching all 126 files (5.2 MB of keystream).
- The SR2 black level (0x7310) is now read through the same decryptor,
  replacing #542's head and per-position keystream tables: one SR2
  decryption path. Identical results on all 131 Sony files (every
  value #542 decoded; the 51 it could not are the files' plain 0x7310).
  Unit tests pin the keystream against answers recorded without the
  generator: every byte #542 and #148 had recovered, the SHA-256 of the
  whole 62112-byte keystream recovered from the CC0 DSLR-A700 sample, and
  the encrypted WB_RGGBLevels of four CC0 files (one per layout) with the
  levels ExifTool decrypts.
- Sweep (4f350c4 -> this): gains equal ExifTool's decrypted
  WB_RGGBLevels on all 100 decoded CC0 CFA files; on 83 files with
  >= 200 JPEG-neutral pixels, within 10 % of the camera's applied gains
  71 -> 83, over 10 % 5 -> 0. Accepted fits unchanged (max 0.15 dE);
  forced fallback median dE 18.50 -> 18.06, neutral-area cast on the 22
  changed files 8.8 -> 1.2.
- Corpus test for five CC0 samples (A500, A33, A700, ILCE-3500 5600 K,
  ILCE-7S Shade; three added to RAW_SAMPLES); the pre-2017 test's gains
  move to WB_RGGBLevels (RX100 III, RX100, ILCE-7RM2: within 2.6 % of
  the old Tag2010 values in Auto). Synthetic tests for decryption,
  directory parsing, source precedence, black level through the full
  DNGPrivateData chain, and hostile input; #542's layout tests (incl.
  the A700 trap) now run through the decryptor.
- Render cache version 25.

+//! Sony's encrypted `SR2SubIFD`.
+//!
+//! Sony ARWs from the DSLR-A200 on carry a private directory, the `SR2SubIFD`, reached from IFD0's
+//! `DNGPrivateData` through the `SR2Private` IFD (`SR2SubIFDOffset` `0x7200`, `SR2SubIFDLength` `0x7201`,
+//! `SR2SubIFDKey` `0x7221`; tag names from ExifTool's Sony tag documentation). The block is a TIFF directory in the
+//! file's byte order whose value offsets are file offsets into the block itself, and the whole block is encrypted.
+//! Among its entries are the black level (`0x7310`) and the white balance the camera applied, `WB_RGGBLevels`
+//! (`0x7313`: R, G, G, B); bodies from about 2017 on also write both in plain form in the raw IFD.
+//!
+//! This module is the only place the block is decrypted: the black level and the white balance are both read through
+//! [`SubIfd`] (issue #535; it replaces positional keystream tables recovered earlier for the black level alone).
+//!
+//! **Clean-room provenance.** The decryption was derived only by black-box known-plaintext analysis of CC0 files. No
+//! raw-decoder source (dcraw, LibRaw, rawspeed, rawloader/rawler, darktable, RawTherapee, ExifTool's Perl code, …)
+//! and no description of Sony's cipher or keystream generator was read or consulted. The steps:
+//!
+//! 1. **Files.** The 126 ARWs with an `SR2SubIFD` among the CC0 Sony samples of raw.pixls.us collected for issue
+//!    #535: 97 bodies from the DSLR-A200 to the ILCE-9M3 and ZV-E1, every Sony body on the site that has one, with
+//!    every coding of the bodies named in open issues.
+//! 2. **Plaintext.** `exiftool -v5 FILE`, run as a black-box tool, prints the decrypted `SR2SubIFD` as a hex dump
+//!    with file offsets. XOR-ing each dumped byte with the byte at the same offset in the file gives the keystream
+//!    byte at that position of the block.
+//! 3. **Comparison.** All 126 files store the key `11 22 33 44`, and their keystreams agree byte for byte at every
+//!    position they share: 15 layouts from 25150 to 62112 bytes, 5.2 MB of keystream in all. Bytes after the last
+//!    whole 4-byte word (two, in every block whose length is not a multiple of four) are stored in the clear.
+//! 4. **Structure.** Read as 32-bit words, the longest keystream (the DSLR-A700 sample `DSC07249.ARW`, SHA-256
+//!    `3159e288…`, 15528 words) was tested for every recurrence `k[n] = k[n − a] ⊕ k[n − b]` with
+//!    `1 ≤ a < b < 300`: an exhaustive search, not a guided one. Exactly two pairs hold on every word: `(63, 127)`
+//!    and `(126, 254)`, the second a consequence of the first. With `(63, 127)`, any 127 consecutive words fix all
+//!    later ones, so [`SEED`] is simply the first 127 words of that file's keystream.
+//! 5. **Checks.** Generated from [`SEED`], the keystream equals the one recovered from each of the 126 files at every
+//!    position. It also reproduces bytes recovered independently from plain tag values before the generator existed
+//!    (8 bytes at position 2510, issue #148, from the plain black levels of the DSC-RX100M6 and ILCE-7M3) and the
+//!    positional tables the black level was read with until issue #535; the unit tests pin all of them.
+//!
+//! Only that key is supported. The one other key seen, in a DSC-R1 SR2 file, gives a different keystream that obeys
+//! the same recurrence from its own first 127 words, but one sample per key cannot show how a seed follows from a
+//! key, so files with another key get `None`.

Subject: [PATCH 211/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: the Keyword List follows its
 keywords
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

After a rename (Edit Keyword Tag), a drag or a merge made in the list,
the picked keyword still named the old path (the highlight went and −
was greyed out for a keyword that was there) and the renamed levels
closed. The pick and the open levels now follow the keyword, and the
levels containing it open, so a keyword dropped into another stays in
sight.

Subject: [PATCH 212/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: a keyword drag ends with Esc, or
 wherever it is released

The Keyword List ended a keyword drag only while it was drawn: with
another panel opened mid-drag, the drag lingered until the list came
back. `keyword_list::drag_feedback` now runs every frame, like the
album drag's: the drag ends with the button's release wherever it is,
or with Esc. A press on a tick box that moves no longer picks the
keyword up. The test that a keyword can't be dropped inside itself
now checks that no move was even tried.

Subject: [PATCH 213/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: keyword translations: Person,
 merging, export
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

- Russian had no "Person": the option showed in English (it reaches
  `tr` through a variable). A test now checks that every label the
  Keyword List passes that way is in every language's file.
- The merge confirmation's button said "Merge", which some languages
  translate as merging photos (HDR, panorama): it says "Merge Keywords".
- Traditional Chinese uses 匯出 for Export, as everywhere else in the
  file, not 轉存; "Export Containing Keywords" means the parent
  keywords in both Chinese files (上層 / 上级), not "included" ones.

Subject: [PATCH 214/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: typed new keywords go inside the
 default parent

Lightroom Classic puts new keywords typed for photos inside the keyword
marked Put New Keywords Inside This Keyword; only + did here. The
Keywords panel's box now does too (`Catalog::typed_keyword`): a new
name goes inside the default parent, while a keyword the library has,
or a path typed whole, stays as typed.

 those that get it

The toast said every dropped photo got the keyword, those that had it
already included. It now counts the photos that didn't have it.

Subject: [PATCH 216/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: idle controls in the Keyword List
 say nothing

With nothing selected a tick box still offered "Add to Selected
Photos", and while a filter holds the levels open the triangle lit up
on hover though a click does nothing. Neither does now.

Subject: [PATCH 217/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: the docs say what the keyword
 options do

The parity row said Person shapes exported files: it is stored only.
It now also covers the list without a selection, the default parent's
reach (typed keywords too) and keywords' hierarchy on import. The
synonyms' doc no longer says search finds them, which it doesn't yet.
What's New follows.

Subject: [PATCH 218/344] LR-IMP-CAMERA-COVERAGE: Sony 16:9 crop on
 pre-crop-tag bodies, refuse the encrypted DSC-R1 SR2

Part of #535 (items 4 and 5).

- Pre-2017 bodies without Sony crop tags shot in the camera's 16:9 mode now get
  the 16:9 crop of their camera JPEG: width from FullImageSize, anchored left as
  before (drops the ILCE-7SM2's 32 padding columns); height from FullImageSize
  (ILCE-7SM2) or from an Exif image size of the same width (DSLR-A580, whose
  FullImageSize still says 3:2); centred vertically at an even offset, as
  measured by registering each camera JPEG on its raw. The aspect now matches
  the JPEG, so the camera-look fit runs: ILCE-7SM2 dE 15.2 -> 4.8,
  DSLR-A580 dE 26.7 -> 3.9 (vs main 88ea1a8).
- The DSC-R1's SR2 (maker-note FileFormat 1 0 0 0) stores encrypted samples and
  decoded to noise; it is now Unsupported in full and header mode and imports
  preview-only with that reason.
- Only these 3 of 140 Sony decodes change; render cache version 26 (23-25 are
  taken by #568, #542, #575).
- Tests: crop helper (3:2 unchanged, both 16:9 sources, even offsets, hostile
  sizes), synthetic Sony file with FileFormat SR2 vs ARW, corpus test of the
  two crops and the SR2 refusal; three samples added to the corpus list.

From 4cb024164ec04d1e8149ab0489d8c2a7250540fc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Nathaniel Ledford <nate@nateledford.com>
Date: Fri, 9 Oct 2026 15:16:36 -0400
Subject: [PATCH 219/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: the Keywording box shows the
 selection's keywords
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The chips at the top of the Keywords panel showed the active photo's
keywords, while adding and removing applied to every selected photo:
with several selected they misreported what the selection had. They
are now the keywords of every selected photo, each once whatever its
case (`panels::keywording`, cached per selection), and one only some
of them have is marked with an asterisk ("On 1 of 2 selected photos").
Only the × removes a keyword, from every selected photo: a click on
the chip itself used to remove it too.

Subject: [PATCH 220/344] LR-IMP-PROFILES: red / green / blue curves only with
 the master and all three channel curves

Lightroom Classic 15.6 imports an XMP packet's channel curves only when it holds
ToneCurvePV2012 and all three of ToneCurvePV2012Red/Green/Blue; any partial set
(master + one or two channels, channels without the master) imports without
channel curves. #416 read them whenever the master curve was present.

Subject: [PATCH 221/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: a chip's menu acts on the selection
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The chip menu offered Delete Keyword, which takes the keyword off every
photo in the library, beside "Remove from Photo". It now acts on the
selected photos only: Add to All Selected Photos (for a keyword only
some have), Remove from Selected Photos, Show Photos with Keyword, and
Edit Keyword Tag… (the Keyword List's dialog, for renaming too).
Deleting a keyword from the library is the Keyword List's.

It gets the Cut / Copy / Paste / Select All menu (paste a list of
keywords from elsewhere), Return gives the keywords to every selected
photo as before, and Esc gives up what was typed.

Subject: [PATCH 223/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: the keyword set's buttons reflect
 the selection
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The nine buttons showed "on" when the active photo had the keyword,
while their ⌥1–⌥9 toggle acts on every selected photo. A button is now
on when every selected photo has its keyword, and marked with an
asterisk when only some do, as the chips are.

Subject: [PATCH 224/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: Will Export shows what exported
 files carry

Lightroom Classic's Keywording box can show the keywords that will be
exported rather than those entered. A Keywords / Will Export switch
under the box now does the same for the selection: the names exported
files carry as the keyword tag options say (a keyword left out of
export goes, parents and synonyms come), one only some of the photos
carry marked with an asterisk. Read only; cached per selection.

Suggestions were worked out from the active photo's keywords: a keyword
it had wasn't suggested though other selected photos lacked it. They
now leave out only the keywords every selected photo has, and build on
those for keywords used with them.

Subject: [PATCH 227/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: chips wrap whole
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

A chip was a frame laid out in what was left of its line: one that
didn't fit wrapped its own text, down to a letter a line, and pushed
its × to the next line. A chip is now one widget measured before it is
placed (its name cut short to fit the row), so the row moves it whole
to the next line; the Will Export names alike.

Subject: [PATCH 229/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: the active photo alone is the
 selection

Keyword commands act on the selected photos, or on the active photo
when the selection is empty (`Session::targets`), but the Keywording
box, the keyword set's buttons, the suggestions and the Keyword List's
tick boxes read the selection only: with just an active photo the box
showed nothing while typed keywords went to it. They now all use the
photos the commands use.

Subject: [PATCH 230/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: a set keyword toggles off whatever
 its case
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

`keyword.toggleFromSet` checked whether every target photo had the
keyword by ASCII case, while the set's buttons and the rest of the
keyword code match any letter's case: with "ÄRZTE" and "ärzte" on the
photos the button showed on, but ⌥N added the keyword (a no-op) instead
of taking it off, so it could never be toggled off.

Subject: [PATCH 231/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: a long chip keeps its name and
 asterisk
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

A chip too long for its row was cut with the file-path shortener, which
keeps the start: "Places › Portugal ›…" lost the keyword's own name and
the asterisk of a partial one. `chip_label` now cuts from the front
("…Lisbon › Belém tower *"). A chip also had two tooltips (its whole
name, and how many selected photos have it); it has one with both.

Subject: [PATCH 233/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: keyword counts are of photos, fast
 with a big selection

- A photo listed twice in the selection counted twice, and an id the
  library doesn't have counted in "of": the chips, Will Export and the
  Keyword List's tick boxes now count the distinct selected photos.
- The chips looked each keyword's spelling up by scanning every photo
  (178 ms with 20,000 photos and 2,000 keywords selected, at every
  change while selected): they now take the keyword list's spelling
  (`Catalog::listed_path`) or the first one seen, 26 ms.

 with their keyword
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Drawn as one widget, a chip and its × lost the names a button gave
them: screen readers met unlabeled buttons. The chip is now named after
its whole keyword (even when cut short on screen) and the × "Remove
“…”". Both answer under ids made from their keyword rather than their
place in the row, so a chip's open menu stays with its keyword when the
chips change underneath it (an undo, a sync).

 matters
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

`chips_stay_on_one_line` held by construction once chips were drawn at
a fixed height with their × on their own line. It now checks that every
chip is on one line inside the panel and that none overlaps another,
with a keyword longer than the panel among them.

Subject: [PATCH 236/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: Esc in Add keyword gives back the
 text from before

The box emptied itself on Esc, on top of the shared field's own undo of
the edit: text left there by an earlier edit (ended by clicking away)
went too. Esc now gives back what the box held before the edit, as
every text field does.

Subject: [PATCH 237/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: a Keywords & Containing Keywords
 view

Lightroom Classic's Keywording box has three views; the box had two.
The switch now offers Keywords, & Containing (the selection's keywords
with the keywords containing them, flat and read only) and Will Export,
the two read-only views cached per selection. The label check covers
the box's other labels passed through variables too.

Subject: [PATCH 238/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: clearer German and Japanese for
 Will Export
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

German says "Es werden keine Stichwörter exportiert", the natural word
order; Japanese names the view "書き出されるキーワード" (the keywords
that will be exported) rather than the vaguer "書き出される内容".

Subject: [PATCH 240/344] LR-IMP-FORMATS: treat DNG samples piled up below the
 stated white level as clipped (#548)

A DNG can state a white level the sensor never reaches (an iPhone 15 Pro Max Bayer DNG states 4095 but clips at 3567), so clipped highlights were not recognised and white balance tinted them magenta. On decode, samples that form a plateau clearly below the white level, with nothing above it, are raised to the white level. RENDER_CACHE_VERSION 25 (needs adjusting at merge).

Subject: [PATCH 241/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: keyword sets keep their slots, and
 can be renamed
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

For Edit Keyword Set (Lightroom Classic's), `keyword.saveSet`:
- keeps each slot in its place: an empty one ("") is an empty slot, so
  the keywords after it keep their ⌥ keys (empty ones were dropped and
  the rest moved up); trailing empty slots go, nine at most;
- holds each keyword once, whatever its case: a second one leaves its
  slot empty;
- with `replace`, renames that set in its place among the sets and
  keeps it current; a name another set has is refused.
⌥ on an empty slot does nothing.

From 68c1e78c1bd99bf5dcb44c19fbd3ee79f9798357 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Nathaniel Ledford <nate@nateledford.com>
Date: Fri, 9 Oct 2026 15:57:57 -0400
Subject: [PATCH 242/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: Edit Keyword Set
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The Keyword Set menu gets Edit Set… (Lightroom Classic's Edit Keyword
Set): the set's name and its nine keywords, one field per ⌥ key, typed
in place. Editing Recent Keywords and naming them saves a new set and
makes it current; editing a named set renames it in its place. An
empty field is an empty slot, shown as an idle button so the others
keep their keys. Return in any field saves; a set without a name says
so and the dialog stays open. Russian gets "Set name", and the label
check covers the new labels.

Subject: [PATCH 243/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: Edit Keyword Set's fields are alike

The nine fields took their width from what the dialog had while it
found its size: the first two columns came out squeezed ("ceremony"
showed "ceren") and the third wide. They are now equal columns of a
set width.

Subject: [PATCH 245/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: renaming a set alone keeps its
 keywords

`keyword.saveSet {name, replace}` without `keywords` took the current
set's keywords, so renaming a set that wasn't current gave it another
set's nine. The keywords default to the renamed set's own now (the
current nine only for a new set), and an empty `replace` is no rename.

Subject: [PATCH 246/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: a new keyword set doesn't take
 another set's name
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Saving Recent Keywords as a set under the name of an existing one
(Edit Set… on Recent Keywords) replaced that set's keywords without a
word, while renaming onto a taken name was refused. `keyword.saveSet`
takes `new: true` for a set that must be new, and refuses a name
another set has.

Subject: [PATCH 247/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: keyword set names match whatever
 their case
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Saving compared set names by any letter's case while using, deleting
and the current set compared ASCII case only: "été" saved over "ÉTÉ"
but couldn't use or delete it. Every set command (and Recent Keywords)
now compares names one way, as keywords are compared.

Subject: [PATCH 248/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: Edit Keyword Set refuses taken
 names in the user's words
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

- Edit Set… on Recent Keywords saves a new set (`new: true`): a name
  another set has is refused, where it used to replace that set.
- The dialog checks names before saving and says why in the user's
  language ("There is a keyword set “…” already"; Recent Keywords is
  built in), instead of showing the engine's message.
- A set deleted while its dialog was open is saved again, as a new set,
  rather than refused with no way out but Cancel.
- Save as a new set (Lightroom Classic's Save as New Preset) keeps the
  edited set and saves the edits under the new name.
Russian gets "Recent Keywords", which showed in English.

Subject: [PATCH 251/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: read and write keyword list files
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Lightroom Classic's keyword list files (Metadata ▸ Import / Export
Keywords): a keyword a line, those inside it one tab further in, a
synonym in braces on a line of its own under its keyword, a keyword
left out of export in square brackets.
- `Catalog::keyword_list_text` writes the whole tree that way, by name.
- `keywords::parse_keyword_list` reads one: Windows line ends, a
  byte-order mark and blank lines are fine; a line it can't read (two
  levels down at once, a synonym of nothing, a "|" in a name, nesting
  past 64 levels: a file is input) is an error naming its line.
- `Catalog::import_keywords_ops` adds the keywords the library doesn't
  have, with the file's attributes and in the library's spelling of
  the levels it has; those it has keep their attributes and gain the
  file's synonyms. One undo step.

and wrote back line for line. (Photo Supreme reads Lightroom keyword
files too: Data ▸ Import from Lightroom Keywords file.)

Subject: [PATCH 253/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: keyword.import and keyword.export
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

- `keyword.export {path?}` writes the keyword list file (Lightroom
  Classic's format, which Capture One, Photo Supreme and Bridge read),
  or gives its text, and names the keywords Capture One's importer
  refuses (none of ; , < > may be in a list it reads).
- `keyword.import {path | text}` reads one (Photo Supreme's Formatted
  Vocabulary File too) as one undo step → {added, updated}. A line it
  can't read is named and nothing is taken; a file larger than 16 MB or
  not UTF-8 is refused.

Subject: [PATCH 254/344] LR-BEHAV-TOAST: menu commands' toasts show
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The UI's menu commands made their toasts with a fresh egui context,
whose clock starts at 0, while the app checks a toast's end against its
own clock: once the app had run a few seconds, every such toast (Auto
Advance On, presets imported or exported, the keyword painter, …) was
over before it was drawn. They use the app's context now.

The File menu (beside the presets) imports a keyword list file
(Lightroom Classic's, Capture One's, Photo Supreme's .utf8) and exports
LightCraft's, with native file dialogs off the UI thread like the
other file commands; the desktop app gives the synchronous ones too.
Import says how many keywords it added and how many gained synonyms;
export says how many it wrote and names the keywords Capture One won't
import (; , < or > in a name).

MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8

The parity row covers File ▸ Import / Export Keywords… and the apps
that share the format, and lists what stays open (IPTC keywords in
exported files, hierarchy from other apps' XMP fields); What's New
explains it.

+- File ▸ Import Keywords… and Export Keywords… read and write keyword list files as Lightroom Classic does (a keyword

Subject: [PATCH 257/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: keyword list files read as meant,
 or say why not

- Classic Mac line ends (a lone carriage return) are lines: a whole
  file used to become one keyword holding them.
- Indenting with spaces is refused at its line: the levels are tabs,
  and space-indented files (hand edits, editors that turn tabs into
  spaces) used to come in flat without a word.
- Control characters in a name, and "|" in a synonym, are refused.
- A keyword repeated in another case keeps its first spelling for the
  keywords inside it.

Subject: [PATCH 258/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: big keyword lists import at once

Reading a list looked each line up in all the lines before it, and
importing looked each keyword up among every photo's keywords: a
40,000-line list into a 20,000-photo library took nearly two minutes.
Both now use an index built once, and the same import takes about a
second.

Subject: [PATCH 259/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: an exported keyword list always
 reads back

The list format can't hold some names. A name in brackets or braces
would read back as a left-out keyword or a synonym. A line break or a
leading space would split it or break the indentation. A keyword nested
deeper than 64 levels won't read back either. These keywords, and those
inside them, are now left out of the file. keyword.export names them as
`unwritable`, and the toast says which.

Subject: [PATCH 260/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: keyword lists LightCraft can't read
 say what to do

A list saved as UTF-16, as Windows' Notepad can, now says to save it as
UTF-8 instead of only "not UTF-8 text". Text passed to keyword.import is
capped at 16 MB, like a file.

Subject: [PATCH 261/344] LR-BEHAV-TOAST: Auto-Tag from Tracklog's toast shows
 too

Like the other menu commands, Auto-Tag from Tracklog stamped its toast
with a throwaway context whose clock starts at zero. A while into a
session, the toast had already expired by the time it was drawn. It now
uses the app's context. Lightroom catalog import gets the app's context
too, so its background work repaints the window it belongs to.

Subject: [PATCH 265/344] LRC-LIB-KEYWORDS: keyword list export names only what
 it loses

Export now leaves out only what it must, and its counts are exact:

- A name starting with a byte-order mark is left out. On the first
  line, the reader would take the mark for the file's own.
- A synonym in braces is written, since it reads back. An empty
  synonym, or one that repeats another in a different case, is
  skipped quietly, as the reader would drop it anyway.
- keyword.export counts and checks for Capture One the keywords it
  actually wrote, now returned with the text. It used to guess from
  the lines, so a name starting with a brace was missed.

 show on one line

A keyword with a line break in its name split the export toast in two.
Names left out now show escaped (Line\nbreak).

Subject: [PATCH 267/344] LR-IMP-FORMATS: read the two-field 12-bit ORF layout
 of old Olympus compacts

C5060WZ, C7070WZ, SP-510UZ, SP-550UZ, SP-565UZ and SP-570UZ files say
uncompressed 12-bit with many strips whose byte counts sum to exactly
width x height x 1.5. main refused them because the 12-bit branch wanted a
single strip, so they fell to "Olympus compressed ORF" and opened
preview-only. The samples are packed MSB-first, the strips hold two fields
(even output rows, then odd ones) with one gap at the seam, and the last row
of the second field sits right after the last strip. Accepted only when all of
that holds exactly. CFA comes from the Exif tag, white balance from maker-note
entries 0x1017/0x1018, black 0. RENDER_CACHE_VERSION 27 (adjust at merge).

Subject: [PATCH 268/344] Catalog: folder records with colour labels (format
 version 4)

Library folders can now carry what the library knows about them beyond
their photos: FolderRecord (for now a colour label), kept in
Catalog.folder_records under the folder's identity (folder_key) and
changed through Op::SetFolderRecord, one undo step. An empty record is
never kept; a path that names no folder is refused.

folder_records_follow builds the ops that carry a folder's records and
those of its subfolders to its new place on rename or move (dropping
stale records left at the destination), so they can be committed with
the photos' relinks. FolderNode reports the label.

Subject: [PATCH 269/344] Engine: folder.label command; labels follow folder
 rename and move

folder.label {path, label} gives a library folder a colour label (or
takes it off) as one undo step; only folders the library holds photos in
are accepted. library.folders reports each row's label. folder.rename and
folder.move commit the folder records with the photos' relinks, so the
labels of the folder and the folders inside it go along and undo/redo
carry them back and forth.

From c40a5675bb5a8297c5e2ba19b0a2f3fe9c3193cc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Nathaniel Ledford <nate@nateledford.com>

Subject: [PATCH 270/344] UI: Set Color Label on Folders rows, with the label's
 dot
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Right-click a folder or disk row in the sidebar's Folders section ▸
Set Color Label ▸ a colour or None (folder.label). A labelled row shows
the label's dot before its count, and its spoken name includes the label.

The colour items are shared with the photo menu (grid::label_items):
each is now a control-channel widget (photoLabel:/folderLabel:<colour>),
and choosing None closes the photo menu like choosing a colour does.

Subject: [PATCH 271/344] LR-IMP-FORMATS: HEIC decodes like libheif; release
 builds include it

heic-rs reconstructs iPhone HEVC tiles bit-exactly (checked against libde265), but
its colour stage was 2-27 code values off libheif on every iPhone photo: it ignores
the HEVC VUI and assumes BT.709 limited range. lightcraft-heif now converts YCbCr
itself (nclx, else VUI, else H.265 defaults; nearest chroma, bilinear for odd clap
offsets, as libheif), inherits tile ICC/nclx on grids, follows libheif's imir axis
and clap rounding, and outputs 16-bit RGB. Measured on 30 real and synthetic
files: within 1 code value of libheif (pillow-heif 1.8 / libheif 1.23).

Also: HEIF header reader for import (no pixel decode), embedded thumbnail for small
decodes, nclx/VUI colour hint (shared CICP mapping with PNG), clear 4:2:2/4:4:4
Unsupported error, Format::not_decodable as the one source of "why not" (import
reports "HEIC/HEIF support isn't included in this build"), `.heif` imports.
Release packaging and Nix build with the heif feature, as whats-new promised.
lightcraft_heif::testdata writes lossless (PCM) synthetic HEICs for the tests.

-around [`heic-rs`](https://github.com/tbraun96/heic-rs), a pure-Rust HEVC still-picture decoder
-(no `unsafe`, MIT OR Apache-2.0): single pictures and grid-tiled photos, 8- and 10-bit (10-bit

+The optional HEIF / HEIC decoder of LightCraft: iPhone and Mac photos. [`heic-rs`](https://github.com/tbraun96/heic-rs)
+(pure Rust, no `unsafe`, MIT OR Apache-2.0, written from the H.265 / HEIF specifications) reads the
+container and reconstructs the HEVC pictures; this crate turns them into 16-bit RGB itself so the
+result matches libheif to within one code value:
+
+- the colour description is the item's `colr nclx` (or its first tile's), else the HEVC VUI
+  (iPhones: full range), else the H.265 defaults; an unspecified matrix is BT.601. heic-rs alone
+  assumes BT.709 limited range, about 8 code values off on every iPhone photo;
+- chroma is upsampled by nearest neighbour, or centred bilinear when a `clap` starts on an odd
+  pixel, as libheif does;
+- `imir` axis 0 flips top and bottom, as libheif writes and reads it (heic-rs names it the other way);
+- a grid's ICC profile may sit on its tiles.
+
+Single pictures and grid-tiled photos, 4:2:0 and monochrome, 8- to 10-bit, alpha auxiliary images
+(other auxiliary images — HDR gain maps, depth — are ignored), the container's rotation/mirror/crop,
+ICC, EXIF and XMP, and the file's thumbnail item. 4:2:2 and 4:4:4 (Canon/Sony "HIF") are refused
+with `Error::Unsupported`: heic-rs 0.1.1 loses sync on them. Read-only.
 
 ```rust
 let info = lightcraft_heif::probe(&bytes)?;           // size, depth, alpha: check limits first
 let img = lightcraft_heif::decode(&bytes, &lightcraft_heif::Options::default())?;

 ## Why it is a separate, optional crate
 
 - **A young decoder.** heic-rs is new and has a single maintainer. It is pinned exactly
   (`=0.1.1`); moving the pin is a reviewed change (re-run the crate tests and
-  `cargo test -p lightcraft-codecs --features heif`).
-- **HEVC patents are a distributor's call.** HEVC is patent-encumbered in some jurisdictions, so
-  whether a build includes an HEVC decoder is a build-time choice. `lightcraft-codecs` uses this
-  crate only behind its non-default `heif` feature; the apps forward it
-  (`cargo build -p lightcraft --features heif`). Without it, HEIC files are still recognised and
-  opening one is a clear "HEIC/HEIF support isn't included in this build" error — the same policy
-  as PhotoCraft.
+  `cargo test -p lightcraft-codecs --features heif`). The other permissive candidates were
+  rejected: heif-oxide's HEVC decoder (rust_h265) follows FFmpeg's (LGPL) code structure, and
+  gamut-heic has no HEVC decoder of its own.
+- **HEVC patents are a distributor's call.** `lightcraft-codecs` uses this crate only behind its
+  non-default `heif` feature; the apps forward it and the release packages enable it. Without it,
+  HEIC files are still recognised and opening one is a clear "HEIC/HEIF support isn't included in
+  this build" error — the same policy as PhotoCraft.
 
 The crate depends on no other LightCraft crate; `codecs` → `heif` is the only edge between them.

+//! crate knows nothing about the rest of LightCraft; `lightcraft-codecs` adapts it behind its
+//! `heif` feature. Shares heic-rs and its regression fixtures with PhotoCraft's `photocraft-heif`.
 //!
 //! HEIF records orientation in the container (`irot`/`imir`, plus a `clap` crop), not in EXIF.
 //! [`Options::apply_transforms`] applies them; with it off, the pixels come back as coded.
+//! Auxiliary images other than alpha (HDR gain maps, depth maps) are ignored.
 //!
 //! Never panics: heic-rs is young, so every call into it runs under `catch_unwind` and a panic
 //! inside it becomes [`Error::Malformed`].

+//! YCbCr → RGB for decoded HEVC pictures, done here rather than in heic-rs so the result matches
+//! libheif (the reference every HEIF tool is checked against) to within one code value:
+//!
+//! - **Which matrix and range.** The item's `colr` `nclx` box when there is one; otherwise the
+//!   HEVC VUI ([`crate::vui`]); otherwise the H.265 defaults (limited range). An unspecified matrix
+//!   is BT.601, as libheif reads it. heic-rs 0.1.1 ignores the VUI and assumes BT.709 limited
+//!   range for every file without `nclx`, which shifts every iPhone photo (full range, ICC only)
+//!   by about 8 code values.
+//! - **Chroma upsampling.** Nearest neighbour (each chroma sample covers its 2×2 or 2×1 luma
+//!   block), as libheif does by default. libheif switches to a centred bilinear filter (weights
+//!   9/3/3/1 sixteenths, in integers) when a `clap` crop starts at an odd column or row; so does
+//!   [`Upsampling::Bilinear`].
+//!
+//! The arithmetic is floating point and the result 16-bit, whatever the coded depth, so the
+//! develop pipeline gets every bit the conversion produces.

 - HEIC / HEIF photos (iPhone and Mac) open now: the optional `lightcraft-heif` crate (heic-rs, pure Rust) behind
   codecs' `heif` feature — 8- and 10-bit, alpha, grid tiles, the container's rotation/mirror/crop, ICC, EXIF and XMP.
   Off by default (HEVC patents are the distributor's call, same as PhotoCraft); official builds pass `--features heif`.
+- HEIC colours now match libheif to within one code value (they were up to ~10 off): the HEVC stream's own
+  full-range/matrix signalling is honoured (iPhone photos are full range), chroma is upsampled like libheif, grids
+  take their tiles' ICC profile, and `imir` mirrors the way libheif writes it. Importing a HEIC reads its size from
+  the container instead of decoding it; small previews use the file's embedded thumbnail. The release packages
+  (macOS, Windows, Linux, FreeBSD, Nix) now really are built with HEIC support; a build without it reports
+  "HEIC/HEIF support isn't included in this build" for each `.heic`/`.heif` at import.
 
 ### Presets and profiles
 - Import presets from other editors: XMP presets, classic `.lrtemplate` files, "DNG presets" from mobile apps and `.zip`

Subject: [PATCH 272/344] Folder labels: drop stale labels on any move; clear
 labels of empty folders

Review fixes. folder_records_follow now drops records left at the
destination even when the moved folder carries none, so an unlabelled
folder renamed onto an old path no longer inherits that path's label.
folder.label {label: none} works once the folder's photos are gone (a
label can no longer get stuck); setting a label still needs photos.

Adds tests for both, undo/redo of a labelled move, and labels replayed
from the journal without a snapshot.

Subject: [PATCH 273/344] Docs: folder colour labels (parity, what's new,
 roadmap)

LRC-LIB-LIBFOLDERS lists folder.label and the Set Color Label menu, with
its limits (no filter or sort by folder label; labels don't follow a
folder moved outside LightCraft). What's new describes the feature and
catalog format v4. The roadmap notes folder records as the first step
towards Classic's folder-id model and when the next step would pay off.

+Library folders now have records of their own in the catalog (`Catalog.folder_records`, keyed by folder path; colour
+labels first). Photos still store full paths, so moving a whole disk or folder relinks each photo. If that becomes a
+problem (an "Update Folder Location" for a renamed or replaced drive, journal growth on large moves), the next step is
+the Classic model: photos point to a folder id (root + relative path), and the records keyed by path become those rows.
+
 Image navigation now supports native pinch zoom and two-finger pan in Detail, Compare and Reference views.
 The whole-image preview still has a configurable size cap (2,560 px default), so 100% on larger photos does not
 yet guarantee original-pixel detail; visible-region rendering remains a gap (LR-VIEW-ZOOM).

+- Right-click a folder (or a disk other than the startup disk) in the sidebar's Folders section ▸ Set Color Label ▸ a colour or None. The row

+  reports each row's `label`.
+- A label follows its folder when it is renamed or moved in LightCraft, together with the labels of the folders
+  inside it; undo and redo carry them back and forth.
+- The catalog format is now version 4 (`Catalog.folder_records`, `Op::SetFolderRecord`). Once this version has

Subject: [PATCH 274/344] LR-IMP-FORMATS: decode Nikon "lossy after split" NEF

Rows below the split row use the existing lossy Huffman path; from the split
row on every pixel is a (bits - 4)-bit word: a complete prefix code for the
difference category followed by the top bits of the T.81 extra bits, dequantised
to the centre of the kept bin, with the usual two-left predictor and an
unclamped running value. The rule was derived by black-box analysis of the 11
CC0 samples (all decode to the same samples as the analysis decoder).

The decoder checks that the fixed-rate section ends within the last byte of the
strip (whole rows plus 0..7 padding bits) and otherwise keeps refusing the file
(preview only), so a file that does not follow the rule is never decoded wrongly.

RENDER_CACHE_VERSION 28 (main is 22, open PRs use 23-27): adjust at merge.

Subject: [PATCH 275/344] Engine: Synchronize Folder (folder.scanChanges,
 folder.synchronize)

A scan compares a library folder (and the folders inside it) with the
disk without changing anything: new files (the import scan's duplicate
rules), missing photos (the Missing Photos rule) and metadata updates
(XMP sidecars saved after the photo came in or was last edited here
that say something the library doesn't). It runs without the session
(SyncInput + scan_with) so the app can scan on a worker thread.

folder.synchronize imports the new files in place and, when asked,
moves missing photos to Recently Deleted and reads the updated
sidecars, all as one "Synchronize Folder" undo step. Only folders the
library holds photos in are accepted, never the startup disk.

+//! Synchronize Folder: bring a folder of the library up to date with what is on disk, as
+//! Lightroom Classic's Synchronize Folder does.
+//!
+//! A [scan](scan_with) compares the folder (and the folders inside it) with the library and finds
+//! three kinds of change, touching nothing:
+//!
+//! - **new** files: supported files the library doesn't have, by path or by content (the import
+//!   scan's duplicate rules, [`crate::import::scan_with`]);
+//! - **missing** photos: library photos in the folder whose file is gone (the Missing Photos rule,
+//!   [`crate::cmd::missing::checked_path`]);
+//! - **metadata** updates: photos whose XMP sidecar file was saved after the photo came into the
+//!   library or was last edited here, and says something the library doesn't (rating, flag,
+//!   label, metadata, capture time or develop settings). Reading one makes the sidecar win, as
+//!   Read Metadata from File does. Embedded XMP in a raw is not a sidecar and is not looked at.
+//!
+//! [`synchronize`] then imports the new files (in place), moves the missing photos to Recently
+//! Deleted and reads the metadata updates — each only when chosen — as one undo step.
+//!
+//! The scan runs without the session ([`SyncInput`] + [`scan_with`]), so the app can run it on a
+//! worker thread: a folder on a sleeping network share must never stall a frame.
+//!
+//! Limits: a sidecar the library itself wrote (auto-write on) agrees with it and is never an
+//! update; one written here before auto-write was turned off, followed by changes made only in
+//! the library, is listed as an update even though the library is newer (there is no record of
+//! when a photo's metadata last changed here). Reading updates is therefore never the default.

+//! Synchronize Folder: bring a library folder up to date with what is on disk (see
+//! [`crate::sync`]).
+//!
+//! Scenarios, in the words of someone whose folder changed outside LightCraft:
+//!
+//! * Given a folder of the library, when files were added to it (or to a folder inside it), the
+//!   scan lists them as new; files the library already has, by path or by content, are not new.
+//! * When a photo's file was deleted or moved away, the scan lists the photo as missing.
+//! * When another app saved a photo's XMP sidecar after the photo came into the library, and the
+//!   sidecar says something the library doesn't, the scan lists a metadata update; a sidecar older
+//!   than that, or one that agrees with the library, is not an update.
+//! * Scanning changes nothing.
+//! * Synchronizing imports the new files; it removes missing photos (to Recently Deleted) and
+//!   reads metadata updates only when asked. Whatever it does is one undo step.
+//! * Only a folder of the library can be synchronized, never the whole startup disk.

Subject: [PATCH 276/344] Engine: folder.synchronize acts on the scan the
 person saw

folder.scanChanges keeps its result in the session; folder.synchronize
uses it (once) while it is of the same folder and the catalog has not
changed since, so a scan made on a worker thread is not repeated on the
UI thread and files that arrive after the dialog was shown are left for
the next synchronize. Otherwise it scans again.

Subject: [PATCH 277/344] Engine: scan a folder for changes concurrently and in
 parallel

The scan waits on the disk, not the CPU, so its two halves now run at
once: the look for new files (which probes on its own threads) beside
the checks of the library's photos (missing file, newer sidecar), which
run on several threads like the import probes do. A cancelled scan stops
checking. Results keep the photos' order.

Right-click a folder (or a disk other than the startup disk) in the
sidebar's Folders section ▸ Synchronize Folder…: the dialog opens at
once and scans on a worker thread (with progress), then offers Import
new photos / Remove missing photos / Read metadata updates with their
counts (Lightroom Classic's defaults: import only). Synchronize runs
folder.synchronize on exactly the scan shown; closing the dialog
cancels a running scan and lets go of the result. New strings are
translated in every shipped language.

A library that can't be opened at launch (locked, unreadable, newer format, drive missing) shows a window — Try Again, Choose Another Library…, Continue Without Saving (then a banner; nothing written), Quit — instead of a silent demo session (`crates/ui-egui/src/panels/library_problem.rs`) |

Each disk is a row of its own and starts open: a drive letter, a Windows share (`\\server\share`, `\\?\UNC\…`, `\\wsl$\…`), a macOS share or disk (`/Volumes/tokyo`), a Linux mount (`/media`, `/run/media`, `/mnt`, gvfs `smb-share:…`, `/net/<host>`), NFS (`/Network/Servers/<host>`), else “This Computer” — told apart from the stored paths alone, so an offline share lists like a mounted one and the sidebar never waits on a network. Only folders that hold imported photos are listed (browsed, deleted and demo photos don't count); every folder is a row of its own (`Users` → `me` → `Pictures`), and a folder that holds nothing itself and leads to one folder starts open; every level indents one step more than its parent however deep it goes: the whole sidebar (Albums, Local, By Date, Folders, Keywords) scrolls sideways when its widest row is wider than the panel (rows are measured one frame behind; Create Album and the counts stay at the visible edge); a name that does not fit ends in an ellipsis at the count (the full name on hover; a row asks for room for at most 140 pt of its name, so depth, not one long name, makes the sidebar scroll), as does the grid title; selection and hover bars end at the panel's edge; click makes the folder the source, like an album or a Local folder (its photos and those of the folders inside it fill the grid, titled “photos/travel”; the filter bar narrows it further; `library.source` `libraryFolder` + `path`; kept with the library's view), and its row is always opened into view; the shown folder follows a rename or move and their undo (engine-tested; the sidebar test covers rename), is dropped back to All Photos when it is removed or no longer holds a photo, and a smart album made from the view keeps it, also when its rules are edited (the editor has no folder field). Only a folder that shows exactly its own photos can be shown (not the startup disk, not `/Volumes`-like folders above disks, not an empty one). A row that would cover other disks' photos too (the startup disk, `/Volumes`, `/mnt`…) only opens.

+### Synchronize Folder
+- Right-click a folder (or a disk other than the startup disk) in the sidebar's Folders section ▸ Synchronize
+  Folder…. The folder and the folders inside it are scanned in the background for photos added on disk, photos whose
+  file is gone, and XMP sidecars changed by other apps; then choose what to do: import the new photos (the default),
+  move the missing ones to Recently Deleted, read the metadata updates. Everything is one undo step, and no file on
+  disk is touched. Agents use `folder.scanChanges` and `folder.synchronize`.
+
 ### Folder colour labels
 - Right-click a folder (or a disk other than the startup disk) in the sidebar's Folders section ▸ Set Color Label ▸ a colour or None. The row
   shows the label's dot before its photo count. Agents use `folder.label` (`path`, `label`); `library.folders`

Subject: [PATCH 280/344] Synchronize Folder: no threads on the web (review
 fix)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

scan_with ran the import scan beside the photo checks in a thread scope
on every target; on wasm32 a thread can't be spawned and Scope::spawn
panics, so Synchronize Folder… crashed the web build. There the two run
one after the other, like the other file work in the engine.

Subject: [PATCH 281/344] Synchronize Folder: an absent folder is offline,
 disks only on request (review fix)

A folder that isn't there (moved whole, or on a disk that isn't
connected) used to scan as "every photo missing", one tick away from
moving a whole disk to Recently Deleted. The scan (on its worker, so an
asleep share never stalls the UI) now reports it as offline and both
commands refuse it; the dialog says so. A whole disk or a folder holding
disks needs `disk: true`, as Remove Disk from Library does; the disk rows
pass it.

From 5c7b655fe66fb1f6e79bf26e950f9b871a2f159c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Nathaniel Ledford <nate@nateledford.com>
Date: Fri, 9 Oct 2026 18:10:48 -0400
Subject: [PATCH 282/344] Synchronize Folder: Local files are new; moved files
 are relinked (review fixes)

A file only browsed in Local was counted as already in the library and
silently dropped; it is now new, and synchronizing brings it into the
library, as an import does.

A photo whose file was renamed or moved within the folder showed as
missing while its file counted as a skipped duplicate, so "Remove
missing" sent the photo and its edits to Recently Deleted and imported
nothing. The scan now matches a missing photo's content hash among the
folder's files and lists it as moved; synchronizing relinks it (on by
default, "Relink photos whose file was renamed or moved"), in the same
undo step.

Subject: [PATCH 283/344] Synchronize Folder: one undo step with a full
 history; partial failures reported (review fixes)

The steps to merge were counted from the undo history's length, which
stops growing at its 1000-step limit: with a full history nothing merged,
or only the last part was relabelled "Synchronize Folder" while the
import stayed behind it. Session now counts committed steps
(Session::commits) and Synchronize merges by that count.

Once the import is in, a later part that fails is listed in `failed`
instead of aborting with the import left as a separate step.

From c98010cffa7b34535d461a5d588909548984fc40 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Nathaniel Ledford <nate@nateledford.com>
Date: Fri, 9 Oct 2026 18:16:32 -0400
Subject: [PATCH 284/344] Synchronize Folder: act on the scan shown, never
 rescan on the UI thread (review fixes)

A scan went stale on any catalog change anywhere (a background import,
a rating elsewhere), and folder.synchronize then scanned again inline:
on the UI thread, and acting on results the person never saw. A scan
now stays current while the folder's own photos are the same records
(Session::take_folder_changes compares them by identity). The dialog
asks with `scanned: true`, which refuses a stale scan instead of
redoing it; the dialog then stays open and scans again in the
background. Agents that just call folder.synchronize still get a fresh
scan.

The app dropped session.folder_changes every frame no dialog was open,
so an agent's folder.scanChanges never reached its folder.synchronize
in the running app; it now only lets go of a scan its dialog made.

Subject: [PATCH 285/344] Synchronize Folder: progress counts the photo checks
 too (review fix)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The dialog's "Scanning… n / m" counted only the files probed, so it
could sit at m / m while the library's photos were still being checked.
SyncProgress counts both halves (its `files.cancel` still stops the
whole scan).

Subject: [PATCH 286/344] Synchronize Folder: state the metadata-update limits
 as they are (review fix)

The docs claimed only a sidecar written here before auto-write was
turned off could be mistaken for an update; in fact the library only
knows when a photo came in or was last developed, so any later rating,
label or metadata change made here can be. Says so, with the headless
fixed clock, the sidecar naming fallback and the walk's limits; the
parity row and what's new also cover relinking moved files, Local
files, offline folders and the `disk` guard. Adds the test that a
sidecar the library auto-wrote is never an update.

Only a folder that shows exactly its own photos can be shown (not the startup disk, not `/Volumes`-like folders above disks, not an empty one).

Only folders that hold imported photos are listed (browsed, deleted and demo photos don't count); every folder is a row of its own (`Users` → `me` → `Pictures`), and a folder that holds nothing itself and leads to one folder starts open; every level indents one step more than its parent however deep it goes: the whole sidebar (Albums, Local, By Date, Folders, Keywords) scrolls sideways when its widest row is wider than the panel (rows are measured one frame behind; Create Album and the counts stay at the visible edge); a name that does not fit ends in an ellipsis at the count (the full name on hover; a row asks for room for at most 140 pt of its name, so depth, not one long name, makes the sidebar scroll), as does the grid title; selection and hover bars end at the panel's edge; click makes the folder the source, like an album or a Local folder (its photos and those of the folders inside it fill the grid, titled “photos/travel”; the filter bar narrows it further; `library.source` `libraryFolder` + `path`; kept with the library's view), and its row is always opened into view; the shown folder follows a rename or move and their undo (engine-tested; the sidebar test covers rename), is dropped back to All Photos when it is removed or no longer holds a photo, and a smart album made from the view keeps it, also when its rules are edited (the editor has no folder field). Only a folder that shows exactly its own photos can be shown (not the startup disk, not `/Volumes`-like folders above disks, not an empty one). A row that would cover other disks' photos too (the startup disk, `/Volumes`, `/mnt`…) only opens. Right-click (row or triangle): Rename Folder…, Move Folder To…, Show in Finder (on disk, photos relinked, as in Local), Set Color Label ▸ (the five colours with their custom names, None, Edit Label Names…; `folder.label`, one undo step; the row shows the label's dot before its count and says it with its name; kept in the catalog as a folder record under the folder's identity, so it follows Rename / Move and their undo and redo, the folders inside going along), Synchronize Folder… (the dialog opens at once and scans the folder and the folders inside it on a worker thread — the look for new files beside parallel checks of the library's photos — then offers Import new photos (checked; files only browsed in Local count as new), Relink photos whose file was renamed or moved within the folder (checked; matched by content), Remove missing photos from the library (to Recently Deleted) and Read metadata updates from XMP sidecars (saved after the photo came in or was last edited here, and saying something the library doesn't; the sidecar wins), with counts and skipped duplicates / unreadable files; `folder.scanChanges` / `folder.synchronize`, which acts on exactly the scan shown — a scan whose folder's photos changed meanwhile is refused and made again in the background — and is one undo step, also with a full history; a folder that isn't there (an unplugged disk) is reported as such, not as every photo missing; a whole disk or a folder holding disks needs `disk: true`; Esc stops the scan) and Remove from Library… (asks; moves the folder's photos to Recently Deleted, one undo step, no file touched); a disk row (not the startup disk) offers Set Color Label ▸, Synchronize Folder… and Remove Disk from Library… (the command needs `disk: true` for a whole disk or a folder spanning several).

Subject: [PATCH 287/344] M11: name Nikon High Efficiency NEFs instead of
 blaming a missing table (#193)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

High Efficiency NEFs (HE / HE★, Z 8, Z 9, Z 6III, Z f) keep compression
34713 but carry a JPEG XS-based codestream (SOC + CAP, FF10 FF50) and no
maker-note 0x0096 table. They fell through to "Nikon compressed NEF
without a linearization table", so the Preview only notice gave Z f users
no hint why their raw wasn't decoded or that Lossless compressed NEFs work.

Detect the codestream before asking for the table and report "Nikon High
Efficiency NEF" with the workaround. Add a synthetic regression test, CC0
Z f HE + Lossless samples to the corpus (raw.pixls.us) with a corpus test,
and list HE NEF among the format gaps in parity.md and ROADMAP.md.

No decoder: the format has no public specification and the existing
decoders (LibRaw, rawler) are LGPL and derived from Nikon's binaries.

From 898ecee27cbcb5586029368725b55800cebdb47b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001

Subject: [PATCH 288/344] Synchronize Folder: relink renamed photos without a
 hash, and duplicates (review fixes)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Moved-file matching only knew photos with a content hash, one per hash:
a photo taken over from a Lightroom catalog (no hash on record) that was
renamed still showed as missing with its file as new, so Remove missing
+ Import new swapped it for a bare copy; a Photo › Duplicate (hash
"<h>:dup<id>") never matched; and of two missing files with the same
content only the first was found.

Hashes now match by the content they stand for, each missing file
claiming one file; a photo with no hash matches by file size and
dimensions, only when exactly one missing file and one unclaimed file
agree. A Local record listed as new no longer carries its
"duplicate"/"existing" marks in the scan.

Subject: [PATCH 289/344] Synchronize Folder: background face search doesn't
 make a scan stale (review fix)

A scan was current only while the folder's photo records were the very
same; the face search adding regions in the background replaced them,
so confirming could keep failing as stale while it worked through the
folder. A photo now counts as changed only when something synchronizing
depends on changed: its file, its place in the library, or what a
sidecar is compared with (regions aside).

Subject: [PATCH 290/344] UI: a Synchronize Folder rescan keeps what was ticked
 (review fix)

When a stale scan was made again, the dialog came back with the default
choices, so a ticked "Remove missing" or "Read metadata" was silently
dropped before the next click. The choices now carry over. A saved
dialog without `relink_moved` reads it as on, the engine's default.

reading while the UI thread only builds and commits the op. No change in

Subject: [PATCH 293/344] Import: a file gone or changed since the review is
 probed again

The import reused the review's probes for every file it had seen, even
one deleted (or rewritten) since: such a file was added as a photo of a
file that isn't there. A cached probe is now used only while the file
is there with the same size (checked in prepare_files, on the import's
worker thread; the web's files keep their probes).

Subject: [PATCH 294/344] LR-EDIT-LIGHT-HIGHLIGHTS: clipped highlights stay
 neutral when darkened (#523)

Sensor-clipped pixels are rebuilt at raw decode. The tone map rolls them off to
white at Neutral, so any colour they carry shows only when Highlights, a negative
Exposure or Whites darkens them. They took colour from the nearest unclipped pixel
(dark foliage, lens fringes along branches, pixels demosaiced from clipped samples),
left two clipped channels at their white-balance-scaled clip levels (red or pink),
and were neutral only in camera RGB, not after the colour model (a look fitted to
the camera's JPEG, a camera profile).

- highlight::reconstruct_with: chromaticity only from bright unclipped content away
  from edges and from the clip, through a normalised push-pull pyramid; a neutral
  estimate blended in where reliable content is scarce at every scale up to a
  quarter of the long edge, applied only as far as the pixel lies past the nearest
  near-clip unclipped pixels (so a surface still runs into clipping without a
  step); clipped pairs keep the estimate's ratio at their clip floors; partly
  clipped pixels fade into the clipped neutral on their way from the first channel
  clipping to the last; fully clipped pixels become the colour model's neutral.
  Pixels without a clipped channel are left exactly as they were.
- engine: the decode colour step as CameraColourModel, with clipped_white, which
  keeps the camera's neutral for nearly singular or implausible models.
- Tests in raw (continuity along a ramp through every clip, also as lines 1 to 16
  rows thick with no reliable colour, on canvases 32 to 1024 rows), engine
  (pipeline renders at Highlights -100, #523's edit and Exposure -2 through the
  first clip, over the same sweep; a CC0 ILCE-7RM4 corpus file added to
  RAW_SAMPLES) and the GPU equivalence suite.
- Render cache version 27.

Subject: [PATCH 295/344] Engine: synchronize in halves, so no file is touched
 on the UI thread

SyncJob::start readies a synchronize from the session without any
file-system call; SyncWork::run does all of the file work (the import's
probes in batches, whether moved and missing files are still as the scan
found them, reading the sidecars) and hands over SyncSteps; SyncCommit
applies each to the catalog without touching the disk and finish()
makes them one undo step. The app runs the work on a worker thread;
folder.synchronize runs the same halves in turn. Progress (done/total)
and cancel go through SyncProgress, one task from start to end.

Subject: [PATCH 297/344] UI: Synchronize Folder runs in the background, with
 progress and Cancel
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Synchronize used to run folder.synchronize on the UI thread: the import
of the new files, the existence checks and the sidecar reads all made
the window wait. Confirming now only takes the dialog's scan and hands
its SyncWork to a worker thread; the dialog closes at once, a progress
window ("Synchronizing… n / m", Cancel) shows while it runs, the steps
are committed between frames through execute_fn (auto-write, durable
save, panic guard) and the whole run is one undo step, with a toast
saying what was done. Cancel stops before the next piece; what was done
stays. A stale scan is still refused and made again. Headless `busy`
now waits for the scan and the run.

Subject: [PATCH 299/344] UI tests: wait for the Remove missing tick to land

stale confirm had replaced the dialog, on a box that was disabled while
scanning, so the choice the test checks was never made.

Subject: [PATCH 300/344] Synchronize Folder: steps never land in another
 library or swallow an Undo (review fixes)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

With the work in the background, File › Open Library during a run sent
its remaining steps into the newly opened catalog, where the same photo
ids are other photos: removals, relinks and sidecar reads hit unrelated
photos. SyncCommit now remembers the library it was readied for
(library_identity, as the Lightroom import job does) and drops steps for
any other, saying so in the report.

An Undo (or an edit) made between two of the run's steps was merged
into the "Synchronize Folder" step, so undoing it undid that earlier,
unrelated step too. The run's steps are merged only while they are
contiguous on the history; otherwise each stays its own step.

Subject: [PATCH 301/344] UI: a Synchronize Folder that was stopped, failed or
 not saved says so (review fixes)

The end of a run threw away execute_fn's result, so a step that went
into the catalog but couldn't be saved (a full disk) went unmentioned,
and a run stopped with Cancel, or ended by a panic in its worker, with
nothing done toasted "The library is up to date with this folder."
The toast now leads with Stopped / Stopped by an error, adds Not saved
with the reason (both logged, and the toast stays longer), and only
says "up to date" when the run finished with nothing to do.

Subject: [PATCH 302/344] UI: a Synchronize Folder and an import never run at
 once (review fix)

Each readies its files against the library as it was when it started,
so with the synchronize in the background, dropping the same folder on
the window (or Auto Import) while it ran could add the same files twice.
Imports (the review, dropped paths, Auto Import) wait while a folder is
being synchronized, and Synchronize waits for a running import.

Subject: [PATCH 303/344] Engine: work out sidecar naming for many photos in
 one pass (review fix)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Session::sidecar_naming builds the catalog's sidecar owners (a pass over
every photo) for each photo it is asked about, so readying a synchronize
(on the UI thread) with M sidecar updates in an N-photo library cost
M·N — seconds for thousands of updates in a large library. The folder
scan had the same pattern. Session::sidecar_namings works them out once
for a list of photos; both use it.

module docs now name the writes that stay on the UI thread after each
step (the durable save; auto-written sidecars), and a test that only
showed the work checks files again is named for that.

Subject: [PATCH 305/344] LR-PROF-CAMERACOLOR: Olympus ORF starting look fitted
 to its own JPEG
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The ORF decoder supplies the as-shot white balance (ImageProcessing
WB_RBLevels) and no colour matrix, like ARW, NEF, RW2, RAF, CR2/CR3, PEF
and SRW, but ORF was left out of camera_preview::file_local_look and the
catalog's relative_wb, so it rendered with the neutral fallback matrix:
flat, grey and dark. It now gets the same guarded fit to its camera JPEG
and white balance relative to the as-shot look. Corpus (held-out RMS
against the fallback, all accepted): E-1 0.126 -> 0.014, E-400 0.087 ->
0.022, XZ-2 0.061 -> 0.023; compressed ORFs still open from their preview.

Against Lightroom Classic (CC0 E-1 kit, 2000 px, ΔE00): unedited render
11.25 -> 8.30; mean over 86 variants abs 12.10 -> 9.48, effect 3.44 ->
2.80. Every other kit's unedited render is byte-identical.
RENDER_CACHE_VERSION 23.

Subject: [PATCH 306/344] LR-IMP-CAMERA-COVERAGE: CR2 black level from the
 masked columns only
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Canon's SensorInfo left border is not where light starts: on every corpus
body 10-36 columns left of it already hold image (EOS 6D: masked columns
0-70, border 84), and the black level was averaged over all of them. The
6D read 2591 instead of 2047 (4 % of the range), so CR2s rendered dark with
crushed shadows; 40D +141, 5DS R +131, 5D Mark II +73. The masked run is
now measured from the data: columns whose mean stays within 1/256 of the
range of the leftmost columns', minus a two-column margin.

Against Lightroom Classic (EOS 6D still life, 2000 px, ΔE00): base 7.63 ->
5.23 (p95 24.7 -> 11.3); mean over 86 edit variants abs 9.13 -> 6.19,
effect 3.09 -> 2.75.
RENDER_CACHE_VERSION 23.

 the tick lands

Under a fully loaded test run a single queued click could arrive while
the dialog was still settling into place and miss the box. The helper
now clicks again at the box's current place until it is ticked.

Subject: [PATCH 311/344] LR-EDIT-AUTO: Lightroom-like Auto, calibrated on
 Lightroom's Auto results (#318, #209)

Auto was a percentile rule that set Exposure about 1.4 EV higher than
Lightroom's Auto on the same photos (mean +1.81 against +0.44 EV) and
barely used Shadows: on 24 Sony raw photos its results were further from
Lightroom's Auto results (median dE76 22.0) than leaving the photo
unedited (7.9), about 18 L* too bright.

Auto is now Lightroom's shape of rule with values chosen for our results:
- Exposure = -0.58 - 0.41 * the scene's log-average luminance (EV from
  middle grey, scene-linear, under the photo's white balance, so it does
  not depend on the base tone curve), clamped to -2..3 EV. The slope is
  Lightroom's: its Auto's chosen Exposure against our log average, r -0.92;
- Highlights -66 and Shadows +52: Lightroom's own average Auto values;
- Contrast +68 and Vibrance +30 (our scales; our base tone is flatter);
  Whites, Blacks and Saturation 0.
The exposure offset, Contrast and Vibrance were fitted jointly so our
renders match Lightroom's Auto exports on the 16 photos whose starting
look Sony's DRO doesn't brighten (#568 changes the other 8). Held out one
photo at a time, each fold fitted from its own training photos only:
median dE76 6.38 on those 16 (8.28 unedited, 18.81 with the old rule),
12 of 16 closer than unedited; 7.70 on all 24 (7.92 unedited); on the 8
DRO photos 9.39 (7.00 unedited), their brighter start showing through.
Freeing Highlights and Shadows too (5 fitted values) did no better held
out (6.51) and left them poorly determined across folds.

The log average skips pixels that aren't finite (a damaged decode) through
the proxy's resampling and white balance; with no valid pixel, Exposure 0.

Values are black-box observations of Lightroom (the settings its Auto
chose and its exports), as in #514. Auto only applies when asked for, so
existing edits keep their look; HDR merges with Auto Settings use the
same rule.

Subject: [PATCH 317/344] Keep the UI-zoom tests: set the interface scale with
 ui.zoomFactor now that Cmd+Plus zooms the photo (#566)

The CLI snapshot test and the headless resize test sent Cmd+Plus to change egui's
interface scale; with the keys handed to View > Zoom they no longer did. A
ui.zoomFactor control request (0.5-3, documented) sets the scale explicitly.

Subject: [PATCH 319/344] Integrate batch 22: fix cross-PR breaks

- #540's crs::Target replaces the raw flag: #597/#604's folder sync and sidecar_op and #533's
  process tests pass the photo's target instead of a bool.
- #568's DRO test fits through #528's fit_look (proxies now return the clipped mask).
- #541 (French) and #564 (Ukrainian) gain the 15 keyword format strings #578-#592 added.

Subject: [PATCH 320/344] LR-IMP-FORMATS: decode 12.8 bpp block-packed ORF
 (E-300, E-500, E-330, high-res E-M5 II / PEN-F)

Single-strip ORFs at 12.8 bits per pixel are 16-byte blocks: ten little-endian
12-bit samples in bytes 0..14 plus a zero pad byte. Main routed them through the
XZ-2 12-bit word path (stripes, magenta cast). New branch before it; the exactly
12.0 bpp XZ-2 branch is unchanged. Layout measured on CC0 files (log and scripts in
data/testing/retry-olympus-e300 and tools/retry-olympus-e300).

RENDER_CACHE_VERSION bumped to 30 (open PRs use up to 29; adjust at merge).

Subject: [PATCH 323/344] LR-IMP-FORMATS: Sony DSC-R1 .SR2 decodes (big-endian
 16-bit words in a little-endian TIFF)

Uncompressed 16-bit words are read in the other byte order only when the
file's order leaves more than 1% of sampled words at or above
1 << max(bits, 14) and the other order leaves none. Measured on the CC0
DSC-R1 (raw.pixls.us 3221). Crop and white balance (SR2SubIFD) are not
addressed. RENDER_CACHE_VERSION 31 (adjust at merge).

Subject: [PATCH 324/344] LR-HDR-EDIT: HDR settings, HDR tone map and the float
 HDR render

- `DevelopSettings.hdr`: enabled, headroom limit (`max_ev`) and SDR-rendition
  offsets (brightness, contrast, highlights, shadows, whites, clarity), with
  control specs (`hdr.maxEv`, `hdr.sdr*`) and copied with the Light group.
- `ToneMap::hdr` / `display_hdr`: the SDR curve through the midtones, with
  highlights lifted up to `2^max_ev`; identical to the SDR tables at peak 1.
- `OutputDepth::F32Hdr`: unclamped linear output up to the peak. The finish
  stage carries the peak through highlight desaturation, gamut mapping,
  encoding, curves, grain and LUT profiles; with HDR off every branch is the
  SDR code path, bit for bit.
- `settings_for`: every non-HDR render (CPU and GPU) uses the SDR rendition.

Subject: [PATCH 325/344] LR-HDR-EXPORT: ISO 21496-1 gain map JPEG codec

`lightcraft_codecs::gainmap`:
- `compute` measures a gain map (luminance or RGB, log2, block-averaged)
  from an SDR and an HDR rendition; `apply` rebuilds the HDR rendition.
- ISO 21496-1 metadata: writer (fixed denominator) and reader (also the
  common-denominator form; refuses unknown versions, backward maps and zero
  denominators). Adobe `hdrgm` XMP reader and writer, per-channel values as
  rdf:Seq; Apple's HDRGainMap/HDRToneMap description of the same map.
- `encode_jpeg`: base with CIPA DC-007 MPF index (gain map typed 0x050000),
  the ISO marker and Container XMP merged into the user's packet, followed by
  the gain map JPEG. `read_jpeg` / `is_gain_map_jpeg` find and decode the map.

Also: gain map images are no longer picked as embedded thumbnails (an Ultra
HDR JPEG could show its greyscale gain map in the grid). The JPEG APP-segment
building is shared with `encode_jpeg`. Fuzzed with the other decoders.

Subject: [PATCH 326/344] LR-IMP-CAMERA-COVERAGE: Sony 16:9 crop on
 pre-crop-tag bodies

Part of #535 (item 4).

Pre-2017 bodies without Sony crop tags shot in the camera's 16:9 mode now get
the 16:9 crop of their camera JPEG: width from FullImageSize, anchored left as
before (drops the ILCE-7SM2's 32 padding columns); height from FullImageSize
(ILCE-7SM2) or from an Exif image size of the same width (DSLR-A580, whose
FullImageSize still says 3:2); centred vertically at an even offset, as measured
by registering each camera JPEG on its raw. The aspect now matches the JPEG, so
the camera-look fit runs: ILCE-7SM2 dE 15.2 -> 4.8, DSLR-A580 dE 26.7 -> 3.9.
Only these 2 of 140 Sony decodes change; render cache version 26 (23-25 are
taken by #568, #542, #575).

Tests: crop helper (3:2 unchanged, both 16:9 sources, even offsets, hostile
sizes) and a corpus test of the two crops against their camera JPEGs; both
samples added to the corpus list.

Subject: [PATCH 327/344] LR-EDIT-LIGHT-HIGHLIGHTS: clipped highlights stay
 neutral when darkened (#523)

Sensor-clipped pixels are rebuilt at raw decode. The tone map rolls them off to
white at Neutral, so any colour they carry shows only when Highlights, a negative
Exposure or Whites darkens them. They took colour from the nearest unclipped pixel
(dark foliage, lens fringes along branches, pixels demosaiced from clipped samples),
left two clipped channels at their white-balance-scaled clip levels (red or pink),
and were neutral only in camera RGB, not after the colour model (a look fitted to
the camera's JPEG, a camera profile).

- highlight::reconstruct_with: chromaticity only from bright unclipped content away
  from edges and from the clip, through a normalised push-pull pyramid; a neutral
  estimate blended in where reliable content is scarce at every scale up to a
  quarter of the long edge, applied only as far as the pixel lies past the nearest
  near-clip unclipped pixels (so a surface still runs into clipping without a
  step); clipped pairs keep the estimate's ratio at their clip floors; partly
  clipped pixels fade into the clipped neutral on their way from the first channel
  clipping to the last; fully clipped pixels become the colour model's neutral.
  Pixels without a clipped channel are left exactly as they were.
- engine: the decode colour step as CameraColourModel, with clipped_white, which
  keeps the camera's neutral for nearly singular or implausible models.
- Tests in raw (continuity along a ramp through every clip, also as lines 1 to 16
  rows thick with no reliable colour, on canvases 32 to 1024 rows), engine
  (pipeline renders at Highlights -100, #523's edit and Exposure -2 through the
  first clip, over the same sweep; a CC0 ILCE-7RM4 corpus file added to
  RAW_SAMPLES) and the GPU equivalence suite.
- Render cache version 27.

Subject: [PATCH 328/344] LR-EXP-HDR: HDR export (gain map JPEG, float TIFF)
 and develop.hdr

- `ExportOptions.hdr` (`hdr` param): photos edited in HDR export as ISO
  21496-1 gain map JPEGs (the SDR rendition as the base, the gain map measured
  against it as written) or 32-bit float TIFF with highlights above 1.
  Other formats and SDR edits export as before.
- Output sharpening and watermarks apply to both renditions.
- `develop.hdr {enabled?, maxEv?}` turns HDR editing on/off and sets the
  headroom limit.

Checked on macOS: ImageIO reports both the ISO and the Apple gain map, and
CoreImage's HDR decode of a 3 EV edit reaches 2.95 EV.

Subject: [PATCH 329/344] LR-HDR-VISUALIZE: HDR controls in the Light panel,
 Visualize HDR, export option
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

- Light panel: HDR switch, headroom limit and an SDR Rendition flyout
  (shown with HDR on); Visualize HDR beside the switch.
- `Overlay::HdrRange` / `view.visualizeHdr`: the SDR render dimmed to grey,
  with pixels the HDR rendition puts above SDR white painted in four bands by
  stops above it. Rendered on the CPU from the float HDR render.
- Export dialog: "HDR output" for JPEG (gain map) and 32-bit TIFF.
- Parity (Q. HDR 2 ✅ 3 🟡, LR-EDIT-HDR-MODE ✅, LR-EXP-HDR 🟡), README, ROADMAP.

Subject: [PATCH 330/344] LR-HDR-EXPORT: HDR AVIF (10-bit Rec. 2020 PQ)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

`encode_avif_pq`: linear Rec. 2020 with SDR white at 1.0 → PQ (SDR white at
203 cd/m², BT.2408), BT.2020 NCL YCbCr 4:4:4, 10-bit, with CICP nclx
(9/16/9, full range) and a clli box. ravif fixes the sRGB curve, so this
drives the rav1e + avif-serialize it already uses (no new crates).

Export: AVIF with `hdr` renders the HDR edit in Rec. 2020 and writes PQ.
Photos without an HDR edit export as before, in every format. CoreImage
decodes the file as HDR (same 3.1 % of the frame above SDR white as the gain
map JPEG of the same edit).

Subject: [PATCH 337/344] LR-VIEW-ZOOM: zoom windows cover a canvas wider than
 2048 px (issue #652)

The loupe read the GPU's texture limit from the frame's raw input
(`i.raw.max_texture_side`). A native host (egui-winit) reports it in the
first frame's input only, so from the second frame on the loupe fell back
to 2048: every window render of a zoomed view was cut to 2048 x 2048 px,
and on a canvas wider than that (HiDPI, 4K, a large window) the strips
beside it showed the magnified whole-frame render. The whole-frame render
and the second-window and compare renders were capped the same way.

Read the limit egui keeps (`InputState::max_texture_side`) instead.

The headless host reported the limit in every frame, which is why no test
saw this: it now reports it once (and again when it changes), as a window
does. Two regression tests: the limit outlives the frame it was reported
in, and at 1:1 on a 2600 px canvas the window covers the canvas.

Subject: [PATCH 340/344] LR-EDIT-LIGHT-HIGHLIGHTS: pale partly clipped skies
 turn white, not teal (#523)

Testing the first version on ILCE-7RM4 photos found a partly clipped sky between
bare branches leaning cyan to teal under #523's edit, where Lightroom shows white.
Where only green clipped, red and blue say such a sky is a pale cyan-blue; the
rebuild kept that colour until halfway to full clipping, and darkening and a camera
profile showed it. Colour borrowed from another surface (bright foliage below the
sky) could also push green up, with a small step where green first clips.

- highlight::reconstruct_with: the colour of a pale partly clipped pixel
  (saturation relative to the colour model's white below 0.2, easing off by 0.4)
  fades to the clipped neutral from the first clip on instead of from halfway;
  brightness and strongly coloured pixels keep the old schedule.
- Borrowed colour counts less and less as both the pixel's own channels and the
  rim's colour contradict it (0.15 to 0.4 stop); either alone can be wrong.
- Right past the rim every estimate continues the rim's colour (it used to hold
  the clipped channels at their clip, for the neutral estimate only), so the first
  clip has no step whatever lent the estimate. The rim is built whenever there is
  clipping.
- Nothing jumps where a later channel clips: in the rim distance and the
  contradiction, a clipped channel counts as the lower bound it is, and a channel
  goes over to that from 0.75 of its clip; a channel about to clip is a floor
  capped like the clip floor it becomes.
- Tests: a pale sky above yellow-green foliage with thin dark branches in it (no
  step where green clips, no green from the foliage, the same beside the branches,
  neutral well past the clip); the fringe test compares the sky beside the branch
  with the sky away from it, on its way to neutral; a band whose red clips second
  next to a rim of another colour renders without a step, in six layouts.
- docs/parity.md: the Highlights note. Render cache version 28.

Subject: [PATCH 341/344] LR-BEHAV-GPU: no render is inside the GPU driver when
 the app quits (issue #620)

A render still running on a worker thread while the process exits crashes in the
driver (SIGSEGV in the NVIDIA Vulkan driver on Linux), where neither the panic
hook nor catch_unwind helps: pool workers were detached, the devices are statics
that are never dropped, and nothing on the way out waited for GPU work.

- gpu: every entry into a device (render, device creation, pool trim, denoise
  runner and tiles) is counted as work in flight (exit.rs). begin_shutdown()
  lets nothing new in; wait_idle(timeout) waits for what is inside.
- preview: JobPool keeps its workers. shutdown(timeout) and Drop discard the
  queued jobs and wait, bounded, for the running ones (2 s on drop); never for
  the calling thread, and not twice.
- engine: a render job caught by the shutdown gives up instead of rendering on
  the CPU, so quitting doesn't wait for it.
- app: on_exit ends with LightcraftApp::shutdown (2 s for everything), after
  settings and library are saved; the macOS menu-bar Quit goes through on_exit.

Not changed: the export, merge, denoise and import threads are still detached;
their GPU work goes through the gate, their CPU work is cut off at exit as before.

Tests: pool drop waits / is bounded / survives a panicked job and its own job
dropping it; the gate; GPU renders refused and the device not created after
begin_shutdown; the app's shutdown leaves no render worker. The crash itself
needs Linux + NVIDIA and was not reproduced here (Windows, DX12): 9 of 9 quits
of the app mid-render exit with code 0 in under 0.8 s.

Subject: [PATCH 343/344] LR-EDIT-LIGHT-HIGHLIGHTS: pale partly clipped skies
 turn white, not teal (#523)

Testing the first version on ILCE-7RM4 photos found a partly clipped sky between
bare branches leaning cyan to teal under #523's edit, where Lightroom shows white.
Where only green clipped, red and blue say such a sky is a pale cyan-blue; the
rebuild kept that colour until halfway to full clipping, and darkening and a camera
profile showed it. Colour borrowed from another surface (bright foliage below the
sky) could also push green up, with a small step where green first clips.

- highlight::reconstruct_with: the colour of a pale partly clipped pixel
  (saturation relative to the colour model's white below 0.2, easing off by 0.4)
  fades to the clipped neutral from the first clip on instead of from halfway;
  brightness and strongly coloured pixels keep the old schedule.
- Borrowed colour counts less and less as both the pixel's own channels and the
  rim's colour contradict it (0.15 to 0.4 stop); either alone can be wrong.
- Right past the rim every estimate continues the rim's colour (it used to hold
  the clipped channels at their clip, for the neutral estimate only), so the first
  clip has no step whatever lent the estimate. The rim is built whenever there is
  clipping.
- Nothing jumps where a later channel clips: in the rim distance and the
  contradiction, a clipped channel counts as the lower bound it is, and a channel
  goes over to that from 0.75 of its clip; a channel about to clip is a floor
  capped like the clip floor it becomes.
- Tests: a pale sky above yellow-green foliage with thin dark branches in it (no
  step where green clips, no green from the foliage, the same beside the branches,
  neutral well past the clip); the fringe test compares the sky beside the branch
  with the sky away from it, on its way to neutral; a band whose red clips second
  next to a rim of another colour renders without a step, in six layouts.
- docs/parity.md: the Highlights note. Render cache version 28.
