After Effects records some effect parameters as value records in the
default state (tdsb 3) that still hold the value it uses. A survey of 839
corpus and sample files finds 25 such effect records, all in Lumetri
Color (its hidden controls) and Cryptomatte (Selection Mode on); every one
differs from its pard default and reads back in After Effects as recorded.
No effect record in the default state holds a value that does not count.
The general reader now takes them: EffectParam::recorded_value (the same
name, signature and body as in the Lumetri import) reads a record whatever
its state, value() and is_default() use it, and the importer's mapped
parameters read it, so such a record imports like a written one instead of
being reported as an unreadable value with the default used.
stored_value keeps to written records.
Layer, camera, light, shape and text properties in the default state all
hold After Effects' defaults or values with no effect on that layer
(the point light cone, a polygon's inner radius, a camera's opacity), so
their readers are unchanged. docs/aep-format.md records both findings.

* expr: an expression cannot rebind a prelude name for the next one (#2133)
One runtime serves every expression on a thread and user code runs as a script
at global scope, so `linear = function () {}` rebound the name for every later
expression, and for every later project in the session. #1387 closed the `__`
globals, the model constructors and the prelude's own prototypes; the rest of
the global surface is here: the prelude's own 104 helpers, the built-ins that an
expression and the prelude both call, and the prototypes those hang off.
Freezing a prototype costs an expression the right to shadow an inherited name
on its own object: once the inherited data property is non-writable, `o.x = …`
is dropped in sloppy mode rather than creating an own property, which is the
override mistake. Every name that was shadowable before is therefore replaced
by an accessor whose setter writes an own property on the receiver, emulating
OrdinarySetWithOwnDescriptor so the substitution does not show through.
The repair covers every own writable, configurable data property of every
prototype the block reaches, not a list of commonly shadowed names: a list
leaves `a.map = …` throwing and `a.push = …` and `a.join = …` silently running
the native method, which is worse, because the expression keeps working and
quietly computes something else.
`name` and `message` on an error's prototype are the one exception, and they
are frozen rather than repaired. The host renders a thrown error by reading
both off the object with no context to call a getter with, and nowhere safe to
call one: the time budget is checked between polls of the evaluation and
formatting runs after that returns, so a getter of the expression's own would
run outside it, bounded only by the loop and recursion limits at some hundreds
of millions of iterations. `e.name = 'MyError'` is dropped in silence as the
price of keeping user code out of the failure path.
The setup code reads every intrinsic it needs before the first prototype is
rewritten, and indexes arrays rather than calling their methods. Repairing
`Array.prototype` turns `concat` and `forEach` into accessors, and an earlier
attempt at this used both while walking the remaining globals, which left
every prototype after `Array.prototype` unfrozen and the prelude failing to
load at all.
Measured on macOS arm64, release, min of 3 x N, against this base: an
inherited-name read costs ~68 ns where it is now an accessor, which is +18%
on a loop doing a hundred of them and +2% to +7% on ordinary expressions.
Extending the repair past `Object.prototype` is what the array-method read
pays for; nothing else moves.

* expr: the prelude's lock answers delete and defineProperty too (#2133)
Tests for the two routes to a global binding the existing ones did not cover
against a prelude function, asked for in review. `writable: false` answers an
assignment and a `var`; it is `configurable: false` that answers these, and
they fail differently: a `delete` of a non-configurable property evaluates to
false in sloppy mode, while a `defineProperty` over one throws, so that is the
one route whose refusal the user sees.
Also records which mode decides that, because it was asked and the answer is
not the obvious one: an expression cannot reach strict mode at all.
`Runtime::script` wraps the text in `try{…}catch(__e){throw __e}`, so a
`"use strict"` the user writes is an expression statement inside a block
rather than a directive prologue and has no effect. A refused write is
therefore always the silent kind, never a TypeError.
No change to the prelude; these pass as it stands.

* expr: freeze Math and JSON plainly instead of repairing them (#2176)
Math and JSON are namespaces, not prototypes: nothing inherits sin or
parse, so the accessor repair keeps no shadowing there and only puts a
getter call on every Math.* read of a per-frame expression. Freeze them
directly and lock the two bindings so Math = {} cannot replace them for
the next expression either. Prototypes keep the repair.

A press on the ruler right beside the marker bin, released a few points
away on the bin, is still a click, and it counted as one on the bin; two
of those added a marker. A click now counts as the bin's only when both
its press and its release are on the bin, in a frame when the bin is
enabled and has the pointer (not a popup above it).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The bin counted a double-click from egui's flag for the whole frame and
the number of releases over it, so three clicks in one frame, on the bin,
beside it and on it again, still added a marker. It now walks the
frame's pointer events itself, by egui's rules for a click and a
double-click, and adds one only for two clicks in a row that are both on
the bin. It also counts while the bin is dragged or its drag has just
stopped, not only while the pointer is over it.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
egui takes any click within a few points of the last one for the first
click of a double-click, so a click on the ruler right beside the bin and
then one on the bin added a marker. The bin now remembers when it was
last clicked and adds one only when the first click was on it too (or
both came in one frame over it).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Sensing clicks on the marker bin as well as drags held the drag back
until the pointer had moved, so a drag out that was released in that
same frame (a fast drag, or a slow frame) added nothing. The bin senses
drags only again, so its drag starts the moment it is pressed, as
before #1826, and the double-click is read from the pointer over it.
The double-click test now also gives the second press and its release
frames of their own, with the bin dragged in between.

- Installed names must be bare file names (and not Windows device names on

* Plug-ins: API 2 (PluginHost, padding, layer_span)
Split out of the OpenFX work so it can be reviewed on its own. Additive; the WebAssembly ABI
stays at 1.
- point3 / layer / text / hidden parameters, integer sliders, parameter groups.
- EffectPlugin::padding (transparent pixels around the buffer, at most 4096 per side).
- EffectPlugin::render_v2 with a PluginHost: the input at other times, other layers, parameters
at other times, frame rate, per-instance key, the layer's source range.
- EffectEnv::layer_span from the renderer; MAX_PLUGINS 1024.
- plugin_error: a plug-in effect's last render error, for the UI.

* Plug-ins: external effect helpers (crates/helper-host)
Native plug-in formats run in separate helper programs, never in EffectCraft's process
(docs/adr/0001-external-effect-helpers.md). New safe-Rust crate effectcraft-helper-host (L3,
native only, unsafe forbidden): it finds helper programs, starts each as a child process and
registers its effects through plug-in API 2, so the UI and command surface need nothing new.
- Protocol v1 (docs/external-helpers.md): JSON lines over stdin / stdout (helper replies are
prefixed so plug-in chatter is ignored); pixels go through a frame exchange file (/dev/shm on
Linux), never through the pipe. Render-time callbacks for the input at other times, other layers
and parameters at other times, with nested renders through the same helper.
- A helper that exits, hangs past its timeout or breaks the protocol is stopped. The render fails
with a message, the frame is left as it was, and the helper restarts for the next render. An
effect that stops its helper 3 times is turned off (helper_blocklist.txt).
- Opt-in: nothing starts helpers unless the user asks (Effect > Scan for Effect Helpers), or opts
in to starting them at launch with EFFECTCRAFT_HELPERS=1, an environment variable, so writing
to the settings folder alone can't run code. effect.helpers.scan / load are refused for
confined agent sessions (confine.rs), like file.executeFile.
- Discovery: helpers/ next to the app (Contents/Helpers on macOS), helpers/ in the settings
folder, EFFECTCRAFT_HELPER_PATH.
- Commands effect.helpers.list / scan / load; Effect menu entries (translated); the last render
error of an effect shows as a warning sign after its name in Effect Controls.
- serve(): the helper side for Rust helpers. tests/it/main.rs runs the whole protocol (render,
padding, callbacks, nesting, threads, crash, restart, block list, hang) against a fake helper,
with nothing to install.

* Effect helpers: address review (start failures, frame file mode, nextest listing)
- A helper that can't start (not installed any more, restarting too often, no frame exchange
file) is reported but no longer charged to the effect being rendered: it is Failure::Refused,
not Failure::Broken, so it never counts toward turning that effect off. New check in
tests/it: once the helper is out of restarts, renders of an effect fail without blocking it
(fails without the fix: the effect was turned off after 3 such renders).
- The frame exchange file is created owner-only (0o600) on Unix: it holds the user's frames and
/dev/shm is shared. Asserted in the frames unit test.
- tests/it (harness = false) speaks the libtest listing protocol cargo-nextest uses:
`--list --format terse` prints `helper_protocol: test` (nothing with `--ignored`), and
`helper_protocol --exact` runs the checks.

* Effect helpers: bound writes to a helper, drain stderr, keep callbacks in step
- Writes to a helper go through a writer thread with the request timeout: a
helper that stops reading its stdin (hung with a large callback answer or
render request pending) no longer blocks the render thread forever while
holding the helper.
- stderr is drained as bytes (lossy, in 64 KiB pieces) to the end: output that
isn't UTF-8 stopped the reader, closing the pipe under the helper (EPIPE /
SIGPIPE on its next write); lines were unbounded.
- Callback images that can't be written are answered with `null` instead of
failing the render while the helper waits (which left the protocol out of
step); a frame that can't be written before the request is sent is not
charged to the effect.
- Mid-render calls use the render's own process: no respawn or heartbeat ping
while the helper is waiting for an answer.
- Waiting for a busy helper is bounded (load timeout) instead of forever;
status() no longer blocks on a running render.
- Reap the child when start-up fails after spawning; cap the block list read.
- Scripts start helpers only with Allow Scripts to Write Files and Access
Network on (they run native code), as for File.execute().
- helper-host declares the workspace's no-panic crate lints; the desktop
main() keeps its doc comment.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* Plug-in Library: offer WebAssembly API 1 releases only; a helper already stopped mid-render isn't charged again
- WasmPlugin loads only modules at the WebAssembly ABI version, which stays 1 while
PLUGIN_API_VERSION is 2: share it as effects::plugin::WASM_API_VERSION and have the
library's compatibility check use it, so it never installs an API 2 release that
can't load.
- with_running: a process that is already gone was stopped by what broke it (a nested
render, charged there), so this render fails without charging its own effect.

* frames: plug-in effects count as reading other frames (plug-in API 2)
With main's narrowed frame invalidation (#2795), an edit inside a precomp under an
effect that reads its layer at other times must reach the layer's whole span.
Plug-in API 2 gives every plug-in effect the input at other times, so any effect
outside ec. counts.

* frames: keep cached frames an edit can't reach
Nudging, trimming or splitting a layer re-rendered the whole comp. The RAM
preview now carries every frame whose stack of active layers is unchanged
to the new comp identity; only the segments an edit touches re-render.
* disk cache: never drop frame writes; save frames kept after edits
Frames get their own write lane (bounded by bytes, written before layer
buffers), so a burst of layer writes no longer drops frames and leaves gaps
in the blue bar after reopening. Frames an edit kept in RAM are written to
disk under the comp's new content key when idle.
* frames: music and hidden layers keep the caches
Layers that can't change pixels (audio-only footage, AV layers with Video
off, when nothing reads them and there are no expressions) no longer count
for the RAM preview's dirty segments or the disk cache's comp and footage
keys. Adding, trimming or moving music keeps both caches.
RENDER_VERSION bumps to effectcraft-render-3 for the new key formula.
* ui-egui: background caching benchmark
cache_bench fills a comp's RAM preview the way idle caching does and
prints frames/s with decoder, footage-cache and disk-cache counters.
* frames: soloed music and hidden layers aren't silent
Solo hides every other layer, so soloing a music track or a layer with
Video off changes the picture. silent_layers no longer drops soloed
layers, so the RAM preview and the disk cache see Solo toggles.
* disk cache: audio files a layer reads stay in the layer salt
Audio-only footage left the disk layer salt so importing music keeps the
keys, but Audio Spectrum and Audio Waveform draw from an audio layer.
Footage another layer reads (or any, when a read layer is a precomp)
counts again, so overwriting that file doesn't reuse stale buffers.
* disk cache: retry frame writes the queue refused
put_frame reports whether the frame is on disk or queued. persist_missing
forgets the key of a refused write, so a full frame lane no longer leaves
RAM frames that are never written.
* ui-egui: cache_bench measures idle caching; checks --comp and --slots
Frames go through request_background with one slot per frame thread, as
Cache Frames When Idle does. An unknown --comp is an error (the active
comp is used only without --comp), --slots is at least 1, and the disk
report flushes queued writes instead of sleeping.
* disk cache: RENDER_VERSION effectcraft-render-6
This branch changes the cache-key formula (silent layers, Solo, read
audio in the footage salt), and upstream #2759 already took render-5
for the clip-clock change, so entries from either must not be reused.
* frames: rewrite RAM frames the disk cache evicted
persist_missing kept every disk key it ever queued, so a frame the disk
cache evicted later was never written back. The disk cache now tracks
frame writes still queued or in progress (frame_pending), and
persist_missing only remembers keys while it converts them.
* frames: idle passes continue while RAM frames wait for disk
persist_missing reports whether there may be more to write (a content key
being computed, frames being converted). Cache Frames When Idle then
schedules another pass, so a refused write is retried without waiting for
a UI event, and the passes stop once every frame is on disk or queued.
* frames: rewrite an evicted frame once, not on every idle pass
A disk cache smaller than the RAM preview, or a frame too large for it,
made idle passes write, evict and rewrite the same frames every 500 ms.
Each disk key is now written at most twice under one disk limit (the
write and one rewrite after an eviction); a new limit resets the count.
The persist test waits for the conversion to forget its keys before
checking that no work is left.
* frames: the work area doesn't change pixels
Setting the work area (B, N) cleared every cached frame, in RAM and on
disk: it was compared with the comp's pixel settings and hashed into the
disk key. It is a preview and render range only, like the Resolution, so
it no longer counts.
* frames: audio edits keep frames unless something draws the audio
Changing a clip's Audio Levels, its audio effects or its Audio switch
cleared the clip's cached frames, and the comp's disk cache, although
nothing drew that audio. The audio now counts only for the layers whose
audio is heard (Project::heard_layers): those a layer picks in an effect
(an Audio Waveform or Spectrum, even on itself), the layers of a picked
precomp, and every layer while an expression (which can read Audio
Levels) exists. Music in a precomp that a waveform in the outer comp
picks is no longer treated as silent either.
* frames: an expression only reaches the frames of its own layer
One expression anywhere in the project made every edit clear the
comp's whole cache, and so did editing a layer another layer reads
(its parent, matte, or a layer it picks). Expressions can read
anything, but they only draw in their own layer: an edit now re-renders
the frames where it changed something, plus those of the layers with an
expression and of the layers that read a reached layer. With
expressions, an edit elsewhere (another comp, an item's name, a marker,
music) reaches only the expression layers' frames.
* frames: an edit inside a precomp re-renders only where the precomp shows it
Editing anything inside a precomp cleared every cached frame of the
comps that nest it, even a music level in it. Project::dirty_spans now
follows precomps: it takes the spans their comp changed in, shifts and
scales them by the precomp layer's start and stretch (its whole span
under a time remap or Responsive Design timing), and keeps the outer
comp's other frames. Layers that read a changed precomp (a matte, a
waveform) re-render where they are active.
* disk cache: keep the frames an edit can't reach
The disk cache keys frames on a hash of the whole comp, so every edit
lost the frames that were only on disk (the blue bar), even a rename;
only those still in RAM were written again under the new key. When an
edit keeps RAM frames, it now also queues a disk carry: on the frame
pool, each kept frame of every disk series in use for that comp is hard
linked (or copied) to its new key with DiskCache::link_frame, oldest
edit first. The old entries stay, so undo finds them too.
* frames: a keyframe edit re-renders only around the keys it changed
Changing one keyframe (its value, interpolation or ease, in the
Timeline or the Graph Editor) re-rendered the layer's whole length, so
a key on a full-length layer cleared the whole cache. A layer that
differs only in keyframes of its Transform properties now re-renders
from two keys before the first changed key to two after the last
(auto-Bezier and continuous tangents reach the neighbouring segments),
to its in or out point past the first or last key. Static values,
expressions, roving keys, time remap and time effects still reach the
whole layer; effect keyframes do too for now (simulations and time
effects read other frames).
* frames: music volume keeps frames while no expression reads audio
Any expression in the project (a wiggle on another layer, even a
disabled one) made every layer's audio count as read, so changing a
music layer's Audio Levels re-rendered every expression layer and
changed the comp's disk key. Audio now counts for expressions only when
one may read it (Heard::audio_exprs): its text names audio or walks
properties by index. An audio-only change nothing reads no longer counts
as a change elsewhere in dirty_spans either.
* frames: a keyframe edit with few keys or beside a self-contained expression keeps the other frames
Changing a Scale key of a layer with two or three keys re-rendered the
layer's whole length: with fewer than two keys before (or after) the
changed one, the span fell back to the in (or out) point instead of the
first (or last) key, past which the value holds. And any layer with an
expression re-rendered on every edit, so a wiggle on a full-length layer
cleared the whole cache. An expression layer is now reached by edits
elsewhere only when its text may read outside its layer (it names a
comp, layer, footage, the project or its source); its parent and the
layers it picks are still read through referenced_layers.
* viewer: the caching chip stays up between uncached frames, with a spinner
The "Caching frames…" chip showed only while playback waited for a
frame, so during caching it flickered on and off with every frame that
arrived. It now stays up 0.6 s after the last wait (and hides at once
when playback stops). It is also smaller and quieter: a spinner, then
"Caching frames" without the ellipsis in dimmed smaller text, on a
fainter chip sized to its text.
* preview: the Preview panel's cache bar counts the preview's Resolution
With a preview Resolution set (Half, Third…), the frames a preview
plays are cached at that scale, but the Preview panel's bar counted the
series the viewer shows. When playback stopped, the viewer went back to
the comp's Resolution and the bar dropped from full to the frames cached
there. It now counts the preview's own series (Auto still follows the
viewer). The viewer and the Timeline's cache bar are unchanged.
* Contributors: add nazar-gavrylyk's name
* frames: an expression reading its own layer's markers or audio re-renders that layer
With expressions in the project, a layer's markers count when comparing it, and its audio counts
when an expression may read audio, so a marker or volume edit re-renders the edited layer over
its own span. Comp markers still count only through layers whose expressions name thisComp.
* frames: a keyframe edit on a layer with an expression re-renders the layer
An expression on the keyed layer can read the keyed property at other times (Rotation reading
Position with valueAtTime), so the frames past the changed keys may change too.
* cache_bench: read decoder counters through effectcraft-media
Only crates/media, crates/export and crates/interchange may depend on the FilmCraft crates.
* cache_bench: clips end where the next one starts
* frames: write-back uses the worker's disk keys while a Roto Brush model is active
persist_missing keyed disk frames on FrameKey::opts, which also carries the Roto Brush model
stamp; the worker and disk_frames key on the render opts' hash alone. With a model active every
RAM frame looked missing, was written again under keys nobody reads, and recorded a second disk
series.
* frames: an edit two precomps down reaches the outer comp
A precomp layer whose comp Arc didn't change was skipped, but the comps nested in it may have
(an edit in Inner leaves Mid's Arc as it was), so Outer kept every frame. Every nested comp is
walked now, each once per edit.
* cache_bench: stop when the disk cache can't be cleared
* frames: one disk carry job at a time
carry_disk runs on every timeline paint and idle pass, and spawned a pool job whenever carries
were queued; during a drag the extra jobs waited on the carry lock and held frame-pool threads
from the viewer. A scheduled flag keeps one job, which drains the queue in order until it's
empty.
* frames: a panicking disk carry is skipped, not left holding the job
The carry job clears carry_scheduled only on its normal exit; a panic in a carry would have left
it set for the session, so no later carry ran. Each carry is caught like the content key's
hashing, so the job always reaches its exit.
* frames: an expression reading its own in point or index re-renders its layer
A trim or rename kept the layer's frames outside the cut when the layer
drew the same apart from its span, but an expression on it can read its
own inPoint, outPoint or name (a fade from inPoint), so every frame of
the layer changes. Such a layer is no longer treated as only respanned.
An expression reading `index` reads the layers above it too: a layer
added or removed there shifts it, so `index` now counts as reading
outside the layer.

* frames: an edit of a comp reaches the expressions of the precomps it nests
An expression in a precomp can read the comp that nests it
(`comp("Main").layer("Controls")`), but the walk into nested comps only
counted changes outside the edited top comp. Editing a hidden Controls
layer there (or any layer, when the precomp is time-shifted or reads it
at other times) kept every precomp frame in RAM and linked them all on
disk under the new key. Nested comps now see an edit of the comp above
them as an edit elsewhere.

* frames: an edit in a precomp under a time effect reaches its whole layer
A precomp layer running Echo, Posterize Time, Time Displacement or
another effect that reads the layer at other times shows a nested change
far from where it maps, but only the mapped span (a nested frame either
side) re-rendered. Such a layer now gives its whole span, like a time
remap. `reads_other_frames` lists those effects (every `ec.time.` and
`ec.sim.` effect and the others that call `self_at`); keyframe spans use
it too.

* frames: a keyframe edit beside muted keys re-renders the whole layer
Muted keys are skipped when a property is evaluated, so the keys that
play around an edited key can be any distance away, but the span counted
two stored keys either side. A segment from an earlier playing key kept
its stale frames. Muted keys now give the layer's whole span, like
roving keys.

The bin at the right end of the time ruler only answered a drag, so a
marker had to be dragged out to where the current time was. As in After
Effects, a double-click on it now adds a composition marker at the current
time, one undo step. A single click still adds nothing, and dragging a
marker out of the bin works as before.

frame at default settings (2 s at 12 fps) with a Before/After split, plus
the effect's parameters, "Open on GitHub" and an optional author video
link (catalog field preview.video). Authors need to do nothing for it.
Hardening: a module that fails to load leaves the installed copy alone,
Update All updates every package in one job, minApp also applies to an
explicit version, curl ignores ~/.curlrc and URL globbing, unique temp
files, percent-decoded file URLs. Plug-in effect slots grow from 64 to
256 with a clearer overflow error.
Docs: plugins.md "Plug-in Library", publishing-plugins.md (author guide
from zero to listed), gaps.md; examples/plugin-catalog is the starting
content of the catalog repository (schema, validation workflow).

- An update to a package that is already loaded is now compiled and its manifest checked
(through the previewer, without registering it) before the new file is written and the old
version's folder deleted. Before, a release with the right SHA-256 that didn't load replaced
the working version and failed at the next start.
- Package ids that differ only in case, or end in a dot, would share one folder on Windows and
macOS: the catalog keeps the first of them, and ids can't end in a dot (schema too).
- Update All: a package that can't be picked or installed no longer stops the others; the
result names what was updated and what wasn't.
- Downloads: at most 5 redirects, and one that ends off GitHub's hosts is refused, as the module
docs say.
- A job that panics no longer leaves the library busy; poisoned status locks are used, not
dropped.

* About: credits tables with resizable columns that fit without side-scrolling
Contributors and Models were egui Grids inside a two-way scroll area, so the
table opened wider than the dialog and scrolled sideways, and Company and
Model sat almost touching. Both are now egui_extras tables: each column
opens at its header and widest cell, the spare width goes to the text
columns (Name; Company and Model), and every column edge can be dragged.
Widening a column grows the table like a spreadsheet, and only then does it
scroll sideways; the header stays put while the rows scroll. Counts and
dates are right-aligned and every cell is vertically centred.
The sorted column stays highlighted, with its direction on the toolbar's
arrow button, so headers no longer reserve room for an arrow. The About
dialog is 820 points wide (modals still shrink to the window) so every
column fits at its natural width. egui_extras comes from the pinned egui
fork without default features; it adds enum-map.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* About: credits column widths come from a tested fit_widths
The opening widths of the credits tables are a pure function now, with unit
tests that a fitted table fills its room exactly (no side-scrolling, no
gap), that spare width goes to the growing columns, and that too little room
shrinks only those.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* Let every credits column be dragged, and refit changed tables
The last column was egui's remainder column, which has no drag handle, so
it could only be resized from the edge before it. It is now an ordinary
column with its own handle.
A table keeps its column widths, so switching to a longer name left the
Name column at its old width and clipped the text. The table now goes
back to the opening fit whenever that fit changes: a longer widest cell
or a resized window. Dragged widths are dropped at that point.
fit_widths could overflow the room when one column hit the minimum,
because the other columns did not take up its share. Columns now give
way in proportion to their width above the minimum.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* Refit credits tables on what they measure, not the fitted widths
Comparing the fitted widths missed the case it was meant for. Name is the
only growing column, so a longer name takes its extra width from the
spare room and the fit comes out the same: a dragged Name width stayed,
clipping the longer name.
It could also drop dragged widths by accident. The fit comes from the
available width inside the scroll area, which scrolling can nudge, so
scrolling a widened table could reset it.
The table now compares the natural widths and the clip rect's width,
which scrolling does not move.

* #1590: build effect kernels on first use instead of with the GPU context
GpuContext::new built every compute pipeline up front: the compositor's own
kernels and ~208 effect kernels. In Chrome on Windows that kept the GPU
process busy past its watchdog, so the device was lost ~60 s after every load
(#1590); on DirectX 12 with FXC the window took over a minute to appear (#613).
The compositor's kernels are still built up front and required. Effect kernels
are built the first time a dispatch asks for one, inside the same error scopes,
so one a compiler rejects still renders its effects on the CPU. unavailable_kernels
lists the failures so far; build_all_kernels builds the rest.
RX 6900 XT, Windows: Vulkan context 0.27 s, all effect kernels 0.9 s, GPU tests
77 s -> 26 s; on #1571's DX12/FXC, context ~66 s -> 1.96 s, tests 1306 s -> 252 s,
same results.
Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
* #1590: compile each kernel family as a shader module of its own
Building effect kernels on first use was not enough in Chrome: the page and
its frame workers each create a device, every one compiled its required
kernels against the single ~460K-character module, and Dawn compiles the
module again for each pipeline, so the GPU process still passed its watchdog
and the device was lost ~64 s after load (RX 6900 XT, Chrome 155).
Each kernel family (FAMILIES) is now common.wgsl + kernels.wgsl + its own file
and the files it borrows functions from (at most ~120K characters), built with
the family's first kernel; the compositor's kernels, sky and classic3d use
small modules of their own.
Chrome 155 on Windows / RX 6900 XT, release web build, default flags: main
loses the device at ~64 s (60.7 s with ?nogpuworkers); with this, two 100 s
runs keep it, and both frame workers get the GPU. Native Vulkan tests
unchanged (212 passed, the 3 failures that main has, #1605).

Posterize: round_away decided half-way by subtracting, and drivers may fuse the
product that feeds it into one fma (AMD does), skipping the product's rounding.
A straight value of 5/6 at level 4 gives 5/6 * 3 = 2.5 exactly in f32 on the
CPU but 2.49999994 fused, so the GPU rounded a level down. round_away now
compares x with t +/- 0.5 (exact for integer t), which no driver can fuse, and
the level divide uses an fma-corrected division (div_rn) like the CPU's.
CC Grid Wipe: the cell lookup floor(q / cs) used WGSL's division, which may be
off by 2.5 ULP; at q = 7, cs = 3.5 AMD and Intel return just under 2 and pick
the neighbouring cell. It uses div_rn too.
New test: posterize matches the CPU exactly on every 8 bpc premultiplied colour
and alpha at three levels (59715 of 65280 pairs differed before at level 4).
RX 6900 XT, Vulkan: effectcraft-gpu 222 passed; the one failure left is CC Hex
Tile, fixed by #1776. DX12 + FXC (on #1571): both tests pass.

* gpu: run Content-Aware Fill's PatchMatch on the device
Content-Aware Fill's synthesis is the stage that makes the tool slow: at
1920×1080 with a 300×200 hole, PatchMatch costs ≈ 1.1 s per frame on the CPU,
and it is what Object, Surface and every refining frame spend their time in.
Add a `FillBackend` trait to `effectcraft-raster` whose stages (the membrane
solve, the flow fields, PatchMatch) default to the CPU reference, and
`Accelerator::inpaint()` on the compositor, which is how the engine asks for a
device backend. `effectcraft_gpu::inpaint` implements PatchMatch: the
multi-scale pyramid, the EM rounds, the propagation (a two-pass checkerboard
instead of the CPU's scan order), the random search, the SSD, the
histogram-based σ² and the weighted vote, as compute kernels in
`shaders/inpaint.wgsl`.
The fill's frames are read back to the CPU before it runs (analyses composite
on the CPU by design), so the backend is about the fill's own work; the
orchestration, the flow-guided propagation and the per-frame flow control stay
on the CPU. Only the hole's bounds cross back to the CPU, which is what makes
the offload pay.
Measured on an Intel Arc (MTL) iGPU, 1920×1080, 300×200 hole:
CPU 1087 ms GPU 397 ms (2.7×, 41.0 dB PSNR against the CPU's synthesis)
The membrane (harmonic) solve deliberately stays on the CPU: the same
measurement has it at ≈ 90 ms on the device against ≈ 55 ms on the CPU,
because a fill's full-frame data movement (upload, the known pyramid, a copy)
does not shrink with the hole, while the relaxation does. The device takes only
the stage where its parallel search pays; `membrane_tex` still runs on the
device inside PatchMatch, where it is the coarsest level's start and never
crosses back.
Closes#1839.
* gpu: fix the fill's vote histogram and run its flow on the device
Review follow-ups on the Content-Aware Fill GPU port, plus the fill's flow.
Fixes:
* imp_hist kept about one sample in 256: each of the 256 threads scanned a
strided subset of the pixels and retained only those whose bin selected it,
so the vote's sigma² came from a sample correlated with the pixel index (and
a small hole usually fell back to 1.0, making the weights near-uniform). One
workgroup now accumulates the whole population through shared atomic bins,
with a test that pins the sample count.
* imp_pm_prop and imp_pm_rand were dispatched over grow(near, 1) but with
near's origin, so the ring's left column and top row were never written
(NaN under test, stale pooled data in production) while a strip past it was.
`over` now derives the shader's origin from the box it sizes the dispatch
from, so a dispatch's region and its origin can no longer disagree.
* Gpu::inpaint() requires its kernels to have built. Otherwise every stage
paid an upload and a failed dispatch to fall back to the CPU, while the fill
still reported the GPU path.
* imp_rnd's XOR chain parenthesises its multiplicative terms: WGSL's grammar
makes each XOR operand a unary expression, so `a * b ^ c * d` is rejected
by spec-compliant parsers (naga accepts it).
* FillBackend documents that its stages may be called concurrently.
* The coarsest membrane's sweep count (64, against the CPU's 200) is now
justified: matching 200 measured ~6% slower over the fill with no change in
the result.
And the flow: Gpu::flow runs block_flow's coarse-to-fine search, sub-pixel fit
and vector median on the device. The luma is the CPU's (flow::luma_pair), so
the field matches block_flow's to a float rounding and the propagation sees
the same motion; the hole completion stays on the CPU with the membrane. A
four-frame 1920x1080 fill goes from 1.27x to 1.42x against the CPU, and the
device path is covered for holes from 16x16 to 300x200.
* gpu: keep the fill vote's histogram range on HDR input
imp_hist binned every distance at a fixed 256 bins per unit and clamped to
1023, so the vote's sigma2 topped out at 3.998. A 32-bpc frame's channels can
exceed 1, and masked_frame forwards them unclamped: a patch distance of 1600
then reported sigma2 ~ 4, exp(-1600/(2*sigma2)) rounded to zero in f32, and
imp_pm_vote kept the prior image instead of synthesising.
The histogram now reports the largest finite distance it saw (atomicMax on the
float bits, carried in bin 0's unused .g channel). SDR input keeps the fixed
0..4 range with identical bins; HDR input is re-binned over the observed range
and percentile() maps the bin centre back through it. Nothing clamps the input.
Also group over/sweeps/pm_level's arguments into small structs: the workspace
denies too_many_arguments and the lint policy (#2496) does not allow new
#[allow]s. No behaviour change on those paths.
* engine: don't report Edge Blend fills as device fills
Edge Blend calls only the membrane, which the GPU backend leaves to the CPU
reference, so run_plan's "Filling (GPU)" status was wrong for it whenever a
backend was present. Object and Surface still run the flow and PatchMatch on
the device and keep the label.
CodeRabbit's #1856 finding.
* gpu: run the fill's device stages inside error scopes
An allocation or validation failure inside patch_image/flow_image left an
invalid texture whose later use raised an uncaptured error, retiring the
shared compositor instead of falling back to the CPU for that frame. Wrap both
stages in Gpu::within_memory, whose scopes are native thread-local, so the
fill's rayon workers do not share them.

* GPU: free effect working textures after each call instead of at frame end
A GPU frame keeps its encoder open while the CPU renderer runs layers with GPU
effects (Gpu::effects -> run_chain). Each call's Enc handed its textures back
to the shared pool, where they waited for every open encoder, so all effect
intermediates of a frame stayed allocated until the frame ended (17.7 GB by
layer 17 of a heavy 4K comp, then OOM). Effect calls now borrow a pool owner
(Enc::lent) that is given back once the call's work is submitted or
discarded; its kept textures are trimmed to the pool budget, so the rest are
freed after each call.
* GPU: one pool budget for idle effect calls, trimmed at the end of a render
Review of #1523: each idle lent owner kept up to POOL_BUDGET of textures of
its own, outside the shared accounting, and there were as many idle owners as
effect calls ever ran at once (16 frame threads: ~12 GB after a 4K render).
Giving a lent owner back now moves its kept textures to the shared free list,
so one POOL_BUDGET bounds what the free list and every finished effect call
keep. They skip Pool::release's wait for open encoders: only the lent Enc
recorded work on them, and that work is submitted or discarded. Each lend is
a fresh owner id, so a lease that outlives its call (an image handed to
another encoder) is released through Pool::release; this does not rely on
the result being read back.
Accelerator::render_end (called when an export ends) drops the kept textures.
* GPU: evict the pool's oldest free textures, guard escaped leases
Review of #1523 (follow-up to 0a884fb6):
- Pool::make_free rejected a texture when the free list was full and never
evicted, so once sizes that no longer occur (per-frame blur bounds, padded
layer sizes) filled the budget, every later free was a drop and every take
an allocation. It now evicts the least recently freed textures until the
new one fits.
- A lease read by another Enc (dispatch, copy, readback, display) or handed
to a cache is marked escaped and always released through the guarded
Pool::release, so a lent call can no longer reuse a texture that a still
open encoder reads.
- Docs: POOL_BUDGET caps the free list only; textures waiting for open
encoders and those of live Encs are outside it.
- export_async calls render_end from a drop guard, so the pool is also
trimmed when an export panics or its future is dropped.
- Tests use a private context with its own pool budget instead of a global
override; new tests for stale sizes and an image read by an open encoder.
* GPU: evict only stale pool sizes, count evicted textures until the GPU frees them
Evicting the least recently freed texture for every newcomer thrashed when a frame
frees more than the budget in a repeating order (blur/glow intermediates): each free
evicted the size the next call takes first, so misses came back to the old level and
evict + reallocate raised the peak.
The free list now evicts only sizes nobody asked for in the last 2 output frames
(Accelerator::frame_end, called by the export per frame); otherwise the incoming
texture is dropped and the kept set keeps hitting. Evicted bytes count against the
budget until the work submitted so far is done, so evictions run at most one budget
ahead of the GPU.
* GPU: lower the shared pool budget to 256 MB
On 4K RTX 3090 runs 256 MB matches the old code's peak reserved on d_blurglow
(9204 MB) and is 256-512 MB above it on c_effects (6592 vs 6080 MB), while
staying faster.
* GPU: end frames on the multi-frame render paths, route recording through Enc::record
Only the export pipeline called frame_end, so off export (preview, remote
frames) the pool's clock stood still, no size went stale and a full free
list dropped every newcomer. passes::comp_frame (exports), remote frames
and the preview workers now end each frame; test without pool_frame_end.
Docs: the frame clock is coarse with many frames in flight; dying only
throttles eviction, approximately; no cache path escapes images. Enc::record
is the single way to get the encoder outside context.rs and marks the
images it names (Enc::uses).
* GPU: cap in-flight frame memory on Vulkan and DX12 (#1550)
wgpu destroys a dropped texture or buffer only once the submissions
that used it have completed and the device is maintained. With several
4K frames in flight on an export or effect-heavy render, frames can
record and drop working textures faster than the GPU retires them,
accumulating freed-but-not-destroyed allocations until a 4-8 GB adapter
runs out of memory (#879).
Add a memory gate (MemCap) checked every 8 effect steps or layers:
- Default cap of 3 GiB on discrete GPUs (low enough for 4-8 GB cards
while leaving headroom above the 1.5 GiB upload cache and 256 MB
shared pool) and 2 GiB on integrated/software adapters, overridable
via EFFECTCRAFT_GPU_MEMCAP_MB (0 disables).
- Compare total_allocated_bytes against non-reclaimable bytes (upload
cache, pool free list, live leases, staging, zeros) with hysteresis
and a post-wait floor so the gate only drains when a wait can free
dropped allocations and does not spin when caches or other open
encoders hold memory over the cap.
- Submit and wait on the current Enc's own SubmissionIndex via a
dedicated poll_wait helper (serialized by poll_lock) so a timeout
simply carries on without retiring the context or its readback pool.
* GPU: warn on invalid EFFECTCRAFT_GPU_MEMCAP_MB, register crop sources, require GPU in the mem-cap child test
- memcap: an EFFECTCRAFT_GPU_MEMCAP_MB value that is not a whole number
of MiB or overflows 64 bits now logs a warning and uses the default
cap (it used to fall back silently, or wrap on overflow). Unset still
means the default and 0 still turns the gate off.
- Enc::crop records through Enc::record, so a foreign source lease is
marked escaped like in copy_into.
- The mem-cap child test starts its GPU through require_gpu, so
EFFECTCRAFT_REQUIRE_GPU=1 fails when the GPU does not start, and
prints a skip line (with the adapter name when the backend has no
allocator report), which the parent passes on.
* GPU: do not repeat the pool frame-end wait until evicted textures drain
A wait that frees none of the evicted bytes (timeout, or a WebGPU poll that
does not block) marks the pool stalled; later frames only poll until dying
drops. Test covers the no-repeat and partial-progress cases; dying decrement
saturates.
* Remote frames: end a pending frame that a new render replaces
A render arriving while a multi-pass frame waits for readbacks dropped that frame without
`frame_end`, so the GPU pool's clock skipped it. Errors return before `frame_begin`.
* Render: end the frame even when a comp frame panics
`passes::comp_frame` called `frame_end` only after a normal return, so a frame that
panicked (or whose future was dropped between passes) never aged the GPU pool.
* GPU memcap: warn once when kept memory alone is over the cap; test the edge frames
A frame whose non-reclaimable memory exceeds the cap never waits when reclaimable
bytes stay below the hysteresis (waiting cannot free the kept set) and now logs
that once. Tests cover a frame over the cap, two frames that fit one at a time, and a
dropped frame giving its memory back.

* GPU: wait for the empty submission while evicted pool textures still count
stale_sizes_do_not_starve_a_steady_size failed with 0 hits and 20 misses on
hardware adapters: pool_frame_end submitted an empty batch and then only did a
non-blocking Poll, and the queue's work-done callback did not run before the
next frame, so Pool::dying never drained and make_free stopped evicting stale
sizes.
While dying is non-zero, pool_frame_end now waits on that empty submission for
up to the readback timeout (the pool lock is already released). A wait timeout
just moves on and does not retire the context or its readbacks; other poll
errors still retire them. Without dying textures it keeps the cheap Poll.
Enc::crop records through Enc::record(&[src, &dst]) so both pooled images are
registered like on every other recording path (review).
* GPU: do not repeat the pool frame-end wait until evicted textures drain
A wait that frees none of the evicted bytes (timeout, or a WebGPU poll that
does not block) marks the pool stalled; later frames only poll until dying
drops. Test covers the no-repeat and partial-progress cases; dying decrement
saturates.
* Remote frames: end a pending frame that a new render replaces
A render arriving while a multi-pass frame waits for readbacks dropped that frame without
`frame_end`, so the GPU pool's clock skipped it. Errors return before `frame_begin`.
* Render: end the frame even when a comp frame panics
`passes::comp_frame` called `frame_end` only after a normal return, so a frame that
panicked (or whose future was dropped between passes) never aged the GPU pool.
* GPU pool: log the reuse rate at render end; test reuse across effect calls and frames
Log cumulative hits/misses (and reuse %) once per render before trimming. Tests
cover reuse within an open frame across effect calls, and across repeated frames.

* Mask feather: bound the variable feather's distance pass
Every flattened segment scanned its box grown by the largest feather radius,
so a path with many vertices and a radius spanning the mask revisited every
pixel once per segment. The pixel visits are now counted first; past a
budget of 2^31 the flattened polyline is thinned (every other point, arc
lengths kept) until it fits, and only a degenerate case falls back to the
hard mask.
* clippy manual_is_multiple_of
Winding numbers were dense vectors up to each segment's path index, and the
topology keeps one per segment, so memory grew with the square of the path
count. They now store only the nonzero (path, winding) pairs.
tidy_segments re-checked the whole run on every merge attempt, so a long
chain of collinear pieces cost quadratic time. A run now merges at most 64
pieces; longer runs leave a few extra joints on the same line or curve.
