The ROADMAP and the MCP docs say Illustrator/Adobe again where they compare
VectorCraft with it (the rewording in #15 and the create_graph row). The
vendor-name gate keeps checking what users and agents read in the app (Rust
string literals, Cargo descriptions, packaging) and the non-Markdown files
under docs/, and no longer scans Markdown pages.

swatch.new takes mode and group; swatch.newGroup takes fromArtwork, toGlobal and includeTints and reports the group's swatches and the paints it linked. Adds a shared radio widget and the ui.newSwatch / ui.newColorGroup openers.

Clip groups clip by compound paths (with their holes), even-odd paths, text
outlines and groups (the union of their members) on screen, in raster
export, in SVG and in PDF alike, through one shared region:
Node::clip_outline (the model walk) and effects::clip_outline (text
outlined, several shapes united), cached per clipping path in the
renderer. Nothing to clip by hides the clipped art everywhere, and clicks
hit a clip group only inside its clipping region. Make Clipping Mask takes
a compound path or text object on top (it loses its paint) and Release
gives it back unchanged in kind.

effect.apply, effect.remove, effect.setParams and the new effect.duplicate
take item (omitted: the Appearance panel's active item, else the object;
null: the object's own effects), so the fx button, the Effect menu, Apply
Last Effect and the effect dialogs (effect.dialog {item}) put the effect on
the selected fill or stroke. effect.list reports each object's item effects
and the active item. appearance.addEffect is an alias of effect.apply.
In the Appearance panel, item effect rows sit under their fill or stroke
with working eyes and inline editors, and can be selected for Duplicate
and Delete; a selected effect row is remembered per object.

While a mask is edited, the Transparency panel and its commands act on the
masked object (Release leaves editing first). Mask commands and
transparency.set take ids and work without a selection; Make Opacity Mask
with one object adds an empty mask and enters editing. Opacity is 0..100 in
every command. transparency.info reports the panel's values with null for
mixed ones, shown blank. Saves and exports never include the editing layer
(Document::without_edit_modes; mask_edit is not serialized).

Clicking a fill or stroke row runs appearance.setActiveItem; the toolbar,
Control bar and Properties proxies and the Color, Swatches, Gradient,
Stroke and Transparency panels show and edit that item, and the gradient
tool's annotator follows it. paint.setFill/setStroke, stroke.set/
setAdvanced, paint.editGradient/setGradientGeom and transparency.set take
item (omitted: the active item, null: the top one). Item edits and the
appearance.* commands address the selected objects' own stacks, so a
group's own fills no longer leak into its contents. Any selection change
clears the active item.

Edit -> "PDF Presets…"; the clipboard preferences read "Legacy vector
clipboard (no transparency)" / "Legacy vector clipboard" (keys copyAicb and
aicbMode unchanged); the second keyboard shortcut set is "Classic Defaults",
and the old set name is still accepted from saved UI preferences, imported
sets and shortcuts.preset. The MCP server instructions, the apply_effect and
create_graph tool descriptions, the text.createInPath params doc,
docs/mcp.md, the ui-egui crate description and the PDF compatibility docs
no longer name another vendor.
New `cargo xtask brands` (run by `cargo xtask ci`) fails on vendor product
or company names in Rust string literals (labels, params docs, menus,
panels, MCP definitions; comments and test code skipped), Cargo.toml
descriptions and text under docs/ and packaging/; a required legacy alias
is marked `brand-ok`. xtask shares one git file listing between the asset
and brand checks. docs/development.md describes the gate.
