A script line for `ui.screenshot` without a `path` had its generated path
assigned with `params["path"] = …`: `serde_json`'s mutable index panics on
an array, a string or a number, and the CLI installs no `catch_unwind`, so
a script handed to the documented headless workflow aborted the process.
Only an object (or null, like an absent `params`) takes the path now;
anything else is a script error naming the line, like the existing handling
of a malformed line.
The regression test runs the real binary on such a script and asserts a
non-zero exit, no "panicked" in stderr and the `params` must be a JSON
object message (it fails before the fix with `cannot access key "path" in
JSON array`).
A library with no photos opened on the Detail view, whose empty state said "Choose a photo in
the grid or filmstrip" while the grid was empty and hidden: the only screen that mentioned
import was off screen, and Import itself was nowhere but the File menu and its shortcut.
- An empty library (no photos, or only deleted or browsed ones) opens on the Photo Grid with the
sidebar (Square Grid stays as it is), in the desktop app and in `lightcraft-cli snapshot`. The
desktop app switches before it notes what its settings file holds, so the switch alone isn't
saved.
- The grid and the Detail view show "Your library is empty" with Import Photos… (primary) and
Import Lightroom Catalog… (not on the web) as buttons, and a line saying photos and folders
can be dropped into the window, with the key Import Photos… is bound to now (`⌘⇧I` on macOS,
`Ctrl+Shift+I` elsewhere, or a remapped one). Not while a folder is browsed under Local or
Recently Deleted is shown: their photos aren't in the library but are on screen.
- The right-hand panel says "No photos yet / Import photos to get started" there instead of
"Select a photo to edit".
- The top bar has an Import button beside Export in every library. The centred search field's
reserve grows by both sides' share (620, and a 190 minimum), so the filter icon stays clear of
the icons on the right at every window width, also with macOS's title bar in the window. The
top bar's icons are named for screen readers, and a refused click says why in a toast.
- `empty_state` is `empty_message` with buttons that do the next step.

Photo ▸ Photo Merge ▸ HDR for Each Bracket Set (`merge.hdrBatch`) merges many brackets in one go with the last HDR
options, as Lightroom merges a selection of stacks: one HDR per stack among the photos, then per bracket among the
unstacked ones (`Catalog::bracket_sets`: photos taken less than about a second after the previous one's shutter
closed, at exposures at least ½ EV apart; bursts at one exposure and earlier merge results are left out). The app runs
the merges one after the other in the activity stack (cancelling one stops the rest; a failed set doesn't); the
command runs them inline for the CLI and MCP (`lightcraft-cli merge hdr-batch FILES…`) and reports merged and failed
sets.

Wake the serving loop after protocol output fails and preserve the actual writer error. Use one process-owned stdin worker so the CLI can finish normal backend cleanup without waiting for client EOF, and terminate the output worker even when a progress hook is retained.

File → Print… (⌘P) opens the Print module as a dialog: settings on the left,
the page drawn to scale on the right with the photos as they will print (fit
or Zoom to Fill, turned by Rotate to Fit, Photo Border, Inner Stroke, page
background).
Settings column: templates (save, apply, delete), layout style, image
settings, grid / package cell controls (standard and custom cell sizes, Auto
Layout, New Page, Clear Layout), rulers and guides (units in/cm/mm/pt, snap
off/cells/grid, grid size, margins, bleed, page grid, image cells,
dimensions), page setup (paper, orientation, margins), page background and
the print job.
Preview: rulers in the chosen unit, dashed margins and bleed, page grid,
dimension labels, page navigation. In the package styles cells are selected,
dragged (print.cell.move) and resized from a corner handle
(print.cell.resize) with the guides' snapping, arranged from the inspector
row or a context menu, and given a photo (Custom Package). Every change is a
print.* command; the drag is measured from where the pointer went down so
the click-versus-drag slop is not lost.
Print to PDF… picks a file and renders on a background thread with an
activity-stack row, cancellation and original protection, like the contact
sheet, which keeps working unchanged.
Headless tests drive the dialog with real pointer input through the control
channel (print:cell:N, print:resize:N, button:print*): styles and checkboxes,
add / drag / resize / arrange / delete, snapping to a neighbour, Auto Layout
and pages, templates, the PDF, the activity row, and that the dialog and its
buttons fit the window.
The Print module's state lives in the session (Session::print), so the app,
CLI, control channel and MCP share one print: layout style (Single Image,
Contact Sheet, Picture Package, Custom Package), page setup, grid, image
settings, page background, guides and job. 18 commands, none journaled
(nothing here touches the catalog):
print.get / set / reset set merges a partial patch, validates the whole
result and changes nothing on error; a new
paper or margin pulls cells back inside
print.cell.add|move|resize|delete|stack|photo|page
print.layout.autoLayout|newPage|clear
print.exportPdf {path, ids?} composes and writes the PDF with an activity
row, refuses to replace an original
print.template.list|save|apply|delete
Templates keep layout, image settings, page and job (not the photos assigned
to cells, not the guides) and are saved in the library's prefs.json next to
the export presets. They are stored as JSON and checked when applied, so a
template from another version or a hostile one is an error on use and never
makes the preferences file unreadable.
Tests drive every command through the dispatcher (hostile numbers, unknown
keys, caps, persistence across reopening a library) and a CLI end-to-end test
chains set / add cells / Auto Layout / PDF in one run.
After `lightcraft --control 7980` was running, the natural next thing to type
was `lightcraft-cli run --connect 7980 ui.inspect`. The CLI's argument parser
only consumed the value if it contained a colon (it was looking for a full
`HOST:PORT`), so `7980` fell through and was parsed as a command id, producing
`{"error":"unknown command `7980`","ok":false}`. The default address was used
behind the scenes, but only by coincidence matched `127.0.0.1:7980`.
The parser now also consumes a token that is all digits (a bare port) and
formats it as `127.0.0.1:<port>`. Non-numeric, non-`HOST:PORT`-shaped tokens
(e.g. `ui.inspect` after `--connect`) keep falling through so the existing
`--connect ui.inspect` form (use the default address, then run ui.inspect)
still works.
Two parser sites have the same shape — the global `--connect` in `cli()`
and the per-step `--connect` in `run_step()` — and both are updated.
Test: connect_bare_port_is_treated_as_loopback_port. cargo test -p
lightcraft-cli: 21 passed, 0 failed. cargo clippy -p lightcraft-cli
--no-deps clean.
A slideshow template is the Playback (not "prepare previews"), Layout /
Options / Backdrop, Overlays and Titles settings as one versioned JSON
document (format lightcraft.slideshowTemplate, version 1).
- Engine: slide_template (SlideLook, Template, built-ins, user template
files in <settings>/slideshow-templates read through each section's own
merged() validation; size and count caps; newer versions refused; bad
files reported and skipped; file names sanitised so ids never leave the
folder). Applying replaces the four settings in one step and keeps the
replaced ones as "previous" for the session (prefs have no undo).
- Five built-ins of our own: Plain Black, Gallery Wall, Edge to Edge,
Cinema Wide, Shooting Data (no Lightroom names or designs, no images).
- Commands slideshow.templates.list/apply/save/update/rename/delete/
import/export; slideshow.preview {template} previews without applying.
- UI: Template Browser at the top of Settings > Slideshow (built-in, user,
previous settings; click applies, hover previews on the selected photo,
right-click update / rename / export / delete; save and import), file
dialogs on the desktop; strings in the nine locales.
- Docs: parity row (partial), whats-new, control protocol and MCP.
The Export dialog gets "Add to Apple Photos" with an optional album (macOS
only). app.export takes addToPhotos / photosAlbum (dialog, Export with
Previous, presets, MCP, lightcraft-cli run and render --opt); the new
export.addToPhotos {paths, album?, wait?} adds files already on disk and
export.photosImports {job?} reports how imports went.
A constant AppleScript run by /usr/bin/osascript asks Photos' import
command (Apple Events, not synthetic input) to import the files into a
top-level album of exactly that name (made when missing; albums in folders
are never used; several of that name: refused), skip check duplicates
false, and returns the media item ids. Album names and paths are passed
only as separate arguments (on run argv), never spliced into the script.
The runner is injectable (Session::apple_photos): with_fs installs the real
one on macOS only, and tests use fakes, so no test starts osascript or
Photos.
Imports are jobs (Session::apple_photos_imports), one at a time. The
desktop app (Session::apple_photos_background, set in open_session) never
waits for Photos on its UI thread: the background export adds on its
worker, app.export without background and export.addToPhotos answer with
the running job, and the app announces the outcome. Without a window (MCP,
lightcraft-cli) imports wait by default, and both headless front ends (the
MCP/CLI backend and the snapshot UI) wait for a running one before the
process ends, on every exit path, through one engine helper
(Session::wait_for_photos_imports) whose deadline follows the job: a
writing allowance while an export still writes, then the import's own
time limit from when Photos was asked, under an overall cap. A runner that panics, waiting or on a
worker, ends its import as failed and frees the slot (panic guard plus a
completion guard). Session::after_export reserves
the import slot before an export writes anything and frees it on every
exit path (handed the files, cancelled, failed, dropped), so a competing
import is refused with the export's job number instead of the export
failing its Photos step after writing. Permission (-1743), missing Photos,
cancel, timeouts, ambiguous albums, busy imports, other osascript failures
and partial imports produce actionable messages; the export's files are
kept either way. Hidden on other platforms; the web build compiles it out.
Packaging: the hardened-runtime entitlements gain
com.apple.security.automation.apple-events (app and CLI) and Info.plist
gains NSAppleEventsUsageDescription, without which macOS refuses the
events without asking.
Not yet tested end to end against a real Photos library: manual steps,
with the packaged app, in docs/apple-photos.md. Parity row LR-EXP-PHOTOS is
now partial.

Open Library given a Lightroom Classic catalog folder, one of its .lrdata /
.lrcat-data folders, Backups/, the .lrcat or its -wal/-shm/.lock files used to
create an empty LightCraft library inside Lightroom's folder (or, for the
.lrcat file, close the current library and then fail). Now:
- engine: lightroom_folder::lightroom_catalog_at (names only, top-level scan
bounded to 10 000 entries, never fails); Session::open_library refuses those
places with EngineError::LightroomCatalog {path, catalog} before creating
anything. A LightCraft library (catalog.snap / catalog.log) always wins.
- app: app.openLibrary checks before closing the current library, keeps it,
returns {opened: false, lightroomCatalog, path} and shows a dialog with
Import Lightroom Catalog… (file.importLightroom with the catalog found) and
Cancel. The library problem window gets the error instead.
- Lightroom import status keeps the catalog path after the task ends.
- CLI --library explains how to import instead.
- `lightcraft_denoise::remote`: protocol v1 over TCP (JSON lines + byte-shuffled,
deflated half-float tiles), a `Remote` client (connection pool, four slots,
greeting checks the model's SHA-256 and tile size, gives up after three failed
tiles) and `serve` (shared token compared in constant time, size caps including
payloads that inflate past their tile, connection limit, timeouts).
- Engine: with LIGHTCRAFT_DENOISE_URL / LIGHTCRAFT_DENOISE_TOKEN set, the loaded
model greets the server on first use and adds its slots to this computer's
tiles at once; a tile goes to a free server slot, else runs here, and a tile
the server fails runs here too. `denoise.status` → `device.remote` says where.
- `lightcraft-cli denoise-serve` serves the installed, selected model on this
computer's card (checked against the CPU, as in the app) or CPU.
- docs/denoise.md: setup, safety (unencrypted: VPN/LAN only) and the protocol.
Tested: protocol round trips, refusals (token, model, tile size, hostile
payloads), fallback and give-up; the engine model with a live, a mismatched
and a dead server; the CLI binary serving a synthetic model end to end.

Export as JPEG XL from the dialog, CLI, MCP and control channel (format jxl): lossy with
quality or lossless, 8/16-bit, effort fast/normal, progressive, EXIF/XMP boxes; HDR edits
as 16-bit Rec. 2020 PQ. Encoder: jixel (pure Rust, BSD-3-Clause OR Apache-2.0, native
only: it spawns its own threads), wrapped in catch_unwind. Lossy files declare an enum
encoding (sRGB / P3 / Rec. 2020; Adobe RGB and ProPhoto written as Rec. 2020); lossless
files embed the ICC profile.
Decoder fix: jxl-oxide desaturated colours outside sRGB when rendering XYB images to
wider primaries; lossy wide-gamut JXL now renders to linear sRGB primaries and is
converted to Rec. 2020 here. jixel's slowest effort is left out: jxl-oxide misdecodes
its (valid) files.

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.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
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.
One config-dir helper (engine::config::config_dir; camera_profiles re-exports it) with both
the face-models and denoise-models defaults; hosts set up both model folders; Settings has
Faces and AI Denoise tabs; both command sets registered; both model dialogs; locale entries
from both; one [features] table per app manifest; Cargo.lock regenerated by cargo; the
DecodedSource cache cost counts both segmentation mattes and the denoised twin.

Resolve the docs/parity.md conflict, keep the HEIC rows. `cargo xtask ci` gets
a heif step (clippy + tests for lightcraft-codecs with --features heif), since
the workspace build leaves the feature off. The Cargo.toml comments no longer
say official builds enable it; the web one notes that wasm32 aborts on panic.

Keep current upstream UI behavior and the later detector contract checks. Validate candidate models before replacing working weights and records, with a synthetic regression that failed before the fix. Remove the unrelated GPU equivalence-test relaxation. All seven quality gates pass with the pinned hosted fonts.
Generated with Codex.
Recover the unpublished denoise work against current upstream. Preserve later opt-in model setup, shared Rust HTTPS downloads, pending-photo resume and an Amount-independent switch. Keep original RAWs unchanged and share the current color finish between ordinary and denoised sources.
Bound public tiling inputs, refuse corrupt-cache exports, and retain synthetic/real-model coverage. Include two Windows path spelling fixes in existing tests. No model weights, face code, media or Tract runtime are included.
Validation: cargo xtask ci (all seven gates); installed RawNIND CPU/GPU agreement 1.38e-6; native CPU preview/export on a public 24 MP Sony RAW, unchanged original SHA-256.

An off-by-default "Recognise faces" toggle and the face model list in Settings,
with a one-drop install: pick a .onnx (Add a model file…) or drop one on the
window. The engine inspects it (recognised by hash, or described from its
shape), a dialog shows its licence, whether commercial use is allowed, what it
was trained on and what LightCraft had to assume, and Install stays disabled
until "I accept" is ticked. "Get…" opens a model's own page in the browser:
LightCraft never fetches a model itself. A file it cannot use says why.
The models folder is shared by the app, the CLI and the MCP server
(`engine::config`, `$LIGHTCRAFT_FACE_MODELS` overrides `<config>/models`), so a
model installed from one is there for the others. A session has none until a host
asks (`with_default_face_models`), which keeps tests hermetic.
Nothing runs a model yet, and the tab says so. Headless tests cover the whole
flow (the dialog, refusing until accepted, installing, a file it cannot use).

When catalog.lock can't be locked (a file system without locks, such as
some network shares), the library opens unprotected, as documented, but
the promised warning went only to the log. It is now the first of the
library's warnings: library.info lists it under settingsWarnings, the
app shows it once in its notices, and lightcraft-cli run / mcp print the
library's warnings on stderr (stdout stays results / protocol only). A
normally locked library shows none.
