* 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.

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.

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.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * 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.
