`lightcraft-cli run [--demo | --library DIR | --connect [ADDR]] [--import PATH]… CMD k=v … CMD …`
runs any engine/UI command or control-protocol method (headless, on a persistent library, or
against the running app) and prints one JSON line per command; non-zero exit on failure,
--keep-going, --script FILE|- for JSON lines. Imported photos are selected (first active) so
the chain acts on them; a library's edits are saved for later invocations. Docs: docs/mcp.md,
README.

- Resize modes: long edge, short edge, width, height, W x H (either orientation), megapixels,
percent; "don't enlarge" (default on); ppi written to JFIF density / PNG pHYs / TIFF tags.
- Full-size export of a cropped photo now renders the crop at native resolution (it was
upscaled to the uncropped long edge).
- Formats: Original (file copied byte for byte + XMP sidecar with the edits, named after the
output) and DNG (raw photos re-encoded losslessly, edits in the embedded XMP).
- Export dialog: Resize-to dropdown, values, Don't enlarge, Resolution; DNG/Original hide
pixel options.
- lightcraft-cli render goes through the shared exporter (colour space, metadata, ppi) and
takes any app.export option via --opt KEY=VALUE; MCP export schema lists the new params.
- xtask resolves the workspace root at run time (a moved checkout broke ci).

RenderRequest gains a sample format (OutputDepth: U8 for previews, U16, F32Linear); deep renders
run the per-pixel stage with the exact sRGB curve and return Rendered::deep alongside the 8-bit
image (GPU stays 8-bit: deep exports render on the CPU). Export encodes deep renders: 16-bit PNG and
TIFF, 32-bit float linear TIFF with a linear ICC profile we generate, 10-bit AVIF (YCbCr planes into
ravif). Output sharpening and watermarks work on deep images. ExportOptions.bitDepth with per-format
defaults (TIFF 16-bit, others 8-bit), export dialog bit depth choice (remembered with the last
export), MCP export schema. Tests: a smooth gradient has 1024 levels in a 16-bit TIFF vs 13 in
8-bit, float TIFF decodes to the same light as 16-bit, per-format depth rules, AVIF 10-bit.

RenderRequest gains an output space (default sRGB; previews stay sRGB). The per-pixel stage converts
scene-linear Rec.2020 to the target primaries, gamut-maps into the target gamut and encodes with the
target curve, on CPU and GPU (WGSL finish kernel reads the matrix, luma weights and curve from its
parameter block). sRGB output is byte-identical to before on the CPU. Export embeds our own
generated ICC profile for the space; AVIF stays sRGB. ExportOptions.colorSpace, export dialog and
MCP export schema. Tests: P3 colour survives a P3 export (decoded through the embedded profile),
every space/format round-trips its profile, GPU equivalence per space.

crates/mcp (lightcraft-mcp, L5): hand-written MCP over stdio (JSON-RPC 2.0,
protocol 2025-06-18 with 2025-03-26/2024-11-05 negotiation): initialize,
ping, tools/list, tools/call, resources/list/read. Two backends behind one
trait: Headless (in-process engine Session; answers engine.execute,
engine.commands, ui.render, app.export) and Remote (the desktop app's
loopback JSON-lines control channel; lazy connect + reconnect).
Tools: helpers (list_commands, run_command, import, query_photos,
select_photos, list_controls, get/set_develop, apply_preset, crop,
render_photo -> image content, export), UI tools when connected
(screenshot -> image content, inspect_ui, set_ui, list_widgets, click,
press_key, type_text, pointer_gesture), plus one cmd_<id> tool generated
per command in the registry (--compact omits them).
apps/lightcraft-cli: `mcp [--connect [ADDR]] [--demo] [--compact] [FILES]`,
`render <in> -o <out> [--set control=value]... [--settings] [--preset]
[--size] [--quality]`, `commands`, `controls`.
Acceptance e2e: crates/mcp/tests/e2e.rs sets exposure over MCP and renders
(headless and through the TCP transport); apps/lightcraft-cli/tests/cli.rs
does the same through the real binary's stdio. Docs: docs/mcp.md,
docs/control-protocol.md. Also rustfmt of one line in pipeline/finish.rs
(main was not fmt-clean).
