dtourolle 05508741af Start the inference engine from both apps and show its choice in Settings
The desktop names where a package may have put libonnxruntime — an
override variable, beside the executable, the package's own library
directory, the Flatpak prefix, the system library directory — and
Android points at the APK's native library directory, which is also
what Qualcomm's DSP loader must be told for the Hexagon skel. Android
starts the engine at the end of the model unpack rather than at launch,
because the probe fingerprints the model files and a first launch has
none until then.

The About panel gains an Inference row beside Graphics, re-read every
two seconds while the probe runs and engines land, and faces.model_id
carries the detector's form: an int8 detector finds a different set of
faces and is a different population (docs/inference.md §7). A
low-memory signal drops every idle session with the GPU caches.

The APK assembly bundles ONNX Runtime and the Qualcomm HTP libraries
from Maven, fetched by tools/fetch-android-runtime.sh with their
published checksums; RUNTIME_DIR=none builds the tract-only APK, which
is a slower app and not a broken one. The desktop packages carry no
runtime yet.

Two probe fixes from the first desktop run: the floor must not be
built with CPU fallback disabled, and a versioned libonnxruntime.so is
a runtime too. On the reference desktop the probe now loads ONNX
Runtime 1.30, measures 30 ms on the CPU provider, and selects TensorRT
at 1.5 ms.

dtourolle 6aae4c3eb0 Ship the three eye-state models beside the face pair
2d106det for the eye contours, OCEC for open or closed, SGC for
sunglasses — all three pinned to a batch of one by the same script as
the pair, and installed by every packager so the eyes-open filter works
out of the box. The two classifiers are MIT, code and weights; the
README records their provenance, SGC's undocumented training set, and
the hashes as fetched and as shipped.

dtourolle 4f31123b0c Let the user choose which SCRFD finds their faces
faces.md §12.3 measured what the cheapest detector costs: the small
faces in every group shot, and a dog embedded a dozen times. Which
trade is right depends on the machine doing the sweep — a desktop left
overnight and a tablet on a battery want different answers — so the
detector is now a per-device setting, Fast / Balanced / Thorough on
the settings page beside the indexing button, persisted with the rest
of the settings file.

A detector is half of a model id. Every face, marker, shard and
calibration is keyed on faces.model_id precisely so that a model change
is a new id and a re-index rather than a silent change under existing
data, and a detector change is a model change: it decides which faces
exist and where the landmarks that align them land. So each choice
names its own pipeline. 500M keeps the bare "w600k_mbf" every existing
library was written under, so an upgrade disturbs nothing; the others
are qualified. Choosing one restarts coverage from zero under the new
id, the sweep re-detects, confirmed names carry across by box overlap,
and the sync shards are keyed by the same id so a peer on another
setting neither adopts nor pollutes them. The library controller
carries the id into the sync the same way it carries the cache budget,
because the sync starts from places that have no settings in reach.

All three shape-fixed exports ship — APK, Arch, Flatpak — since a
tablet has no other way to obtain the one it was not installed with;
the APK grows by twenty megabytes for the choice.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 1c5849ebe8 Unpack the bundled models on a worker, not on the way to the first frame
Launching v0.10.0 on the tablet produces an ANR: "Waited 5000ms for
MotionEvent", 5,827 ms on one input sequence, over a window that has
never painted. The app recovers and sits at 0% afterwards, so it is a
startup cost rather than a hang.

The structural fact behind it is that `android_main` runs with the
activity's input channel unserviced. Nothing drains it until Slint
reaches `poll_events`, and Slint does not reach `poll_events` until
`dr_ui::run` calls `window.run()` on its last line. Every millisecond
before that is a millisecond the input dispatcher waits on, so five
thousand of them is an ANR whatever the work happens to be.

The largest single piece of that work was here. `install_bundled_models`
copies 41 MB on the first launch after an install — 24.9 MB of scene
model, 13.6 MB of embedder, 2.5 MB of detector — each read whole out of
the APK into a `Vec` and written to `/data`, in a loop, on that thread.
v0.10.0 is the release that added the scene model, which is 60% of that
total, and it is the release the ANR appeared in. The 8,010 minor faults
in the report are about what 41 MB of freshly touched pages costs.

So it moves to a detached thread and the function returns as soon as the
thread is running. Nothing on the launch path wanted the result: the
only two things that read these files are the People screen and the
scene tab, both of which are reached by hand, minutes later, from
workers of their own.

What that costs is a window in which a model looks absent.
`library::face_models` and `library::scene_model` decide availability on
`is_file()`, so during the copy both report their feature unavailable —
which is the same answer they give a build shipping no weights at all,
the ordinary case both were written around. Briefly pessimistic rather
than wrong, and the temporary-name-then-rename that was already there is
what keeps it from being worse than that: a lookup never sees a
half-written file, only an absent one. Both call sites now say so.

A completion line reports the bytes copied and the milliseconds taken,
including when it is zero, so the second launch after an install can be
told from the first in a log rather than by inference.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 e8b072c815 Say the app is starting before there is anything to say it with
Nothing from our own code reached logcat on the tablet: 284 lines from
the app's PID during a launch, every one of them from Hwaps,
BlockMonitor, InputEventReceiver or nativeloader, and not even the
version banner android_main emits three statements in.

I could not find the fault in our wiring, and this commit does not claim
to fix it. What it does is make the next launch say which side is at
fault, and close a hole that is real whatever the answer turns out to be.

What reading rules out, so nobody repeats it: install does call
log::set_max_level. The Config carries an explicit tag and an explicit
max level, and its env_filter is None, so android_logger's enabled() and
filter_matches() both pass an Info record. Tee::enabled delegates to the
console and gates nothing else. set_boxed_logger cannot have failed —
its Err path drops the Tee, taking the LogFile with it, and the file on
the device has content. And Tee::log calls console.log() unconditionally
*before* the file write, which is itself gated on console.enabled(), so
every line that reached the file proves the AndroidLogger was handed the
same record. Nothing else in the graph installs a logger; android-activity
and Slint's backend do not. The diff that introduced this changed the
level, the tag and the Config not at all — init_once and set_boxed_logger
leave the same logger installed at the same level.

That leaves below __android_log_write, which no amount of reading this
file can reach.

So: the console logger is now built first, and one line goes through it
directly, before the state directory and before the log file. Two things
follow. Everything between android_main's first statement and install
returning — external_data_path, create_dir_all and an open on a FUSE
volume the system may still be mounting — currently has no surface at
all to fail on; that window is what logcat is for, and it now has a line
in it. And when the log is silent, that line separates the two cases:
present with the log::info! lines below it missing is the facade, absent
along with them is liblog not delivering this process's records.

It goes through Log::log rather than log::info!, which is not a style
choice: the facade's maximum level is Off until install sets it, so a
log::info! there compiles and emits nothing.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 7312aceded Get the scene model onto the devices that need it
The decoder can load from a path; nothing yet put a file at one. Four
packaging routes, and one lookup that finds the result.

## Not `include_bytes!`, unlike the instance model

The instance model is 11 MB and compiled in, which was the right call for
it: Android hands the app no filesystem path (ARCH §6.9) and 11 MB is
tolerable. The scene model is 24 MB, and 35 MB of constants in the binary
is paid by every install whether or not the tab is ever opened.

So it follows `models/face/` instead — carried as an APK asset, unpacked
once at first launch into the shared directory a desktop install already
uses, after which every lookup finds it where it finds a desktop user's.
Assets are stored rather than deflated in the APK, so unpacking is a copy
rather than an inflate.

`embedded-scene-model` exists for the desktop build with nowhere else to
read from, and for tests wanting the real graph. Off by default, which is
the asymmetry with `embedded-model` and the reason for a separate
feature.

## Three files, all or none

`scene_model` insists on the graph, its vocabulary and the category
descriptor together, for the reason `face_models` insists on its pair: a
graph alone decodes to 150 anonymous channels. Reporting the set missing
beats starting and failing at the first inference.

## The two model sets are not the same kind of thing

`install_bundled_models` now carries both, and the distinction is worth
keeping in view. Face weights are absent from the repository *by design*
— the InsightFace grant is research-only (docs/faces.md §2) — so a build
carrying none is ordinary. The scene model is committed, so a build
carrying none means a checkout without `git lfs pull`.

Neither is fatal. A photo editor that refuses to start over a missing
grading feature is worse than one that starts without it, so both report
themselves unavailable exactly as face indexing already did.

The LFS-pointer guards apply to the `.onnx` only. The vocabulary and the
descriptor are legitimately a few kilobytes, and a size check that fails
on them would be a guard against the wrong thing.

`scene_model` is exported ahead of the tab that will consume it so the
packaging added here has something to be verified against — assets
written where no lookup looks would be a silent mistake for as long as
the tab took to arrive.

dtourolle 465f5a7ffa Keep the log after the session that produced it
Everything this application knew about a failure went to stderr on the
desktop and to logcat on Android, and both are gone the moment the
terminal closes or the ring buffer wraps. That is fine when the person
debugging is sitting at the machine. It is useless for the case NFR-OPS-1
actually describes, and the one Android makes normal: somebody reproduces
a bug on a tablet, and then sends us a file.

A large amount of Android behaviour has never run on a device — image
intents read over JNI, an ExportProvider, a class loaded through the
activity's class loader, memory-pressure eviction, lost-root recovery —
and the single most likely failure of the lot, the activity's loader not
resolving our classes from android_main's thread, produces one line that
scrolls past. That line is now in a file, with the thread that emitted it
named beside it.

dr_plat::state answers "where does this platform keep state for this
app": $XDG_STATE_HOME/darkroom on Linux, and on Android whatever the
entry point declares. Separate from configuration and from the catalog
for the reason XDG separates them — state is the thing nobody backs up
and the user may delete without consequence.

dr_plat::diagnostics is the sink. Two files of 4 MiB, so the worst case
is a number rather than a discovery on a full phone; one line per write
with no BufWriter anywhere, because on Android processes are killed
rather than ended and a buffered log loses exactly the line it was kept
for; and redaction applied at the sink rather than at the call sites,
since a rule every author has to remember is not a rule. It tees the
platform's own logger rather than replacing it, so logcat is unchanged —
losing that while debugging would have made this a downgrade.

Android logs to external_data_path, not internal. Both are app-private
and both survive backgrounding; what separates them is that
/data/data/<pkg>/files needs run-as against a debuggable build to read
and /sdcard/Android/data/<pkg>/files is a plain adb pull from any build.
A log nobody can retrieve is not a diagnostic. The consequence is that
anyone holding the tablet can read it, which is why the redaction is
where it is, and why configuration stays on internal_data_path.

What is redacted is what NFR-SEC-2 and NFR-OPS-1 name: credentials and
tokens, found by the keyword that nearly always sits next to them, plus
the two forms that carry one with no keyword at all — an Authorization
scheme and a URL's userinfo. What is deliberately not redacted is
filesystem paths and the names of the user's photographs. They are in
neither requirement's list, and "failed to decode <redacted>" is not a
diagnostic; the preview-and-consent step NFR-OPS-1 asks for governs those
better than scrubbing would, because it lets the user look.

The over-redaction failure is tested as carefully as the under-redaction
one. A scrubber that eats "using basic sRGB as the fallback" makes a log
useless without ever being caught.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 35954dfa1d Write a panic down where it can still be read, with nothing in it that names the user
NFR-OPS-2 is two sentences — local crash capture always, upload only on
explicit opt-in — and what existed was one `log::error!` in the Android entry
point and nothing at all on desktop. So a panic on desktop went to stderr and
died with the terminal, and a panic on Android went to a logcat ring buffer
that is gone long before anyone reports anything. What the user saw either way
was a job that stopped or a control that went dead, with nothing to send.

That matters more here than it would in most applications, because
NFR-ARCH-4 says no worker error may panic the process and the code is written
that way: errors are typed and attached to the image or job they belong to. A
panic is therefore by construction a bug — an invariant this codebase believed
and got wrong — and it was the one class of failure with no trace.

`dr_plat::crash` writes a record to the XDG state directory: version, time,
os, arch, thread, panic location, message, backtrace. In dr-plat rather than
in either entry point because "where does this platform let an application
keep state" is a platform question, and Android's answer is neither XDG nor
`temp_dir` — `set_state_dir` takes it from `internal_data_path`, the same
place `dr_sync::account::set_data_dir` gets its answer. The hook resolves the
directory when it fires rather than when it is installed, which is what lets
it go in before everything else and cover the startup it would otherwise miss.

**The content rule is the substance of this, not the plumbing.** NFR-SEC-2
forbids credentials in logs and plain files; the same reasoning applies with
more force to what this application is actually about, because a user's
library is private and so is its shape. `/home/anna/Photos/2019 Divorce/` says
something about a person, and a crash record is exactly the file someone
attaches to a bug report while trying to be helpful. So `redact` runs over the
message *and* the backtrace, and is deliberately blunt: anything containing a
slash goes, `content://` and `primary:DCIM/...` included, since SAF names a
library just as precisely as a path does; anything beside a word like
`password` goes; a long opaque run with letters and digits in it goes, which
is the shape of an app password nobody labelled. The one exception is a `.rs`
path, which keeps its basename — a backtrace with no filenames is close to
useless and `library.rs:1270` says nothing about anybody.

Over-redaction costs legibility. Under-redaction costs a user something they
cannot take back. Those are not comparable, so the boundary is not the place
to be clever.

NFR-SEC-5 — face data never in a crash report, under any configuration — is
met structurally rather than by filtering: this module reads no catalog, opens
no image, touches no account. A record is assembled from the panic hook's own
arguments and `std::env::consts`, and there is no code path from here to an
embedding. The message length cap is the backstop for a payload some other
module formatted something large into.

stderr is the one surface that still sees the message unredacted, deliberately:
the previous hook is chained rather than replaced, so a developer watching a
terminal does not lose the panic because the application started writing files.
It is ephemeral, local, and never attached to a report.

**No upload path, and not half of one** — no endpoint, no queue, no "send this
later" flag. Opt-in upload needs a server to receive it and a consent flow
stating what leaves the device (NFR-SEC-4, and the preview-and-consent step
NFR-OPS-1 requires of the diagnostics bundle). Neither exists, and a transport
built ahead of its consent is the shape of thing that later gets switched on
by default.

Leaves NFR-OPS-1 cheaper by three things it will want unchanged: `state_dir`
(the log belongs at `state_dir()/log` beside `crash/`, so the diagnostics
bundle has one directory to collect), `redact` (NFR-OPS-1's "automatic
redaction of credentials and tokens" is this function), and `prune` (a
size-capped rotation is this, counting bytes instead of files).

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 09dddde594 Take the photograph another app hands over, and hand an export back
FR-PLAT-AND-6 asks for two things this app did neither of: be a receiver for
image view and share intents, and share exported results out through a
FileProvider. The manifest declared one activity with one MAIN/LAUNCHER filter,
so nothing on the device ever offered DarkRoom for a photograph, and there was
no route out at all — Android has refused file:// URIs between apps since API
24, and a content:// URI needs a provider to be behind it.

Inbound. Three filters now: VIEW for a gallery or a file manager, SEND and
SEND_MULTIPLE for the share sheet, all on image/*. `android_main` reads the
launch Intent before it gives `app` away to Slint, and what comes back is
passed to `dr_ui::run` exactly as argv is on the desktop — `startup_action`
already treats a non-empty list as "the user asked for these specifically",
which is what a share is.

The URIs are copied into the cache before the viewer opens, and that cost is
real: a shared raw file is written once, in full, on the startup path. A
content:// URI is a handle into another app's provider, not a path, and the
decoders take paths; the alternative is teaching the whole read path about
URIs, which is FR-PLAT-AND-1's SAF connector and is not built.

Outbound. ExportProvider serves one directory — getFilesDir(), which is the
same path `internal_data_path` gives the Rust side — and refuses everything
else by canonicalising the request and checking it is inside that root, so
`../` and a planted symlink fail the same test. Not AndroidX's FileProvider,
because AndroidX is a Maven artefact and this build has no resolver; what it
does is a hundred lines and they are here.

The share half has no caller. The provider, the URI grant and the chooser are
all in place, but the control that would invoke them belongs in `ui/dr-ui`, and
wiring it needs an `AndroidApp` the interface can reach. It is documented as
unwired and deliberately not tagged as covering the requirement.

`launchMode="singleTask"` comes with the filters and is not decoration: another
app can now launch this activity while it is running, and the default mode
answers that by creating a second NativeActivity in the same process — a second
android_main, a second Slint backend, a second wgpu device. The cost of the
fix is stated in the manifest: a share arriving while DarkRoom is already open
brings it forward without opening the image, because onNewIntent has no route
through android-activity's event stream.

The Java is Java because Android constructs it: a ContentProvider is
instantiated by the system from its manifest entry, and getIntent() exists only
on an activity object. Both directions live there rather than in JNI so that
what crosses the boundary is two method signatures instead of forty, each of
which is a string checked at run time and nowhere else.

What a test can hold: the declarations. Nothing about an Intent or a
ContentProvider is reachable from `cargo test`, but an intent filter that is
deleted takes the app out of every "open with" menu silently, and an authority
that stops matching its class raises a SecurityException inside somebody else's
app. The tests in lib.rs read the manifest and ExportProvider.java through
`include_str!` and hold both to that, on the host, which is the only place in
the workspace that looks at either file from Rust.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 2b812ebe21 Give memory back in the order the user will miss it least
FR-PLAT-AND-5. Android asks for memory back through onTrimMemory and
kills the process if it is not given; until now nothing listened, so the
answer was always "no".

A tiered registry answers instead: GPU caches first, then proxies, then
thumbnails, driven from android_main on MainEvent::LowMemory and
MainEvent::Stop. The order is the argument. A backgrounded app has no
window to draw and therefore no use for a render pipeline, while its
thumbnails are exactly what the user will be looking at half a second
after they come back -- so going into the background frees only the GPU
tier, and only being measured against death frees everything.

Sinks register beside the cache they free and hold weak handles, so the
registry cannot keep a controller -- and every decoded portrait in it --
alive past the interface it belonged to. `try_borrow_mut` and skip: a
warning can land mid-render, freeing textures under the code drawing
with them is worse than missing one, and a warning not acted on is
always followed by another.

The GPU test is the one that matters: an eviction must change no pixel.
A freed intermediate pool whose `colour_key` promise still stands
renders an empty texture, and nothing else would have caught it.

dtourolle f12aece07e Make storage pluggable, and prove it with a folder backend
`RemoteBackend` existed from the first release and bought nothing it was
designed for. Seven files in `dr-ui` constructed a `NextcloudBackend`
directly, an account *was* a server URL beside a DAV user id, the local
cache directory was named after a hostname, and the launch screen knew
that signing in meant a browser handshake. The trait was real; the seam
was documentation.

A trait over operations is only a quarter of it. Pluggable storage needs
four things, and this adds the other three:

- **Capabilities** — already there, and the reason the engine can drive
  two backends at the speed each actually runs at.
- **Configuration** — `dr_sync::Account`: where a library lives, in
  whatever form its connector addresses, with no server in it. Loads
  every existing config unchanged (`backend` defaults to `nextcloud`,
  `endpoint` is stored under its historical `server` key), and
  `Account::namespace()` reproduces the old catalog directory byte for
  byte, because changing it would abandon a catalog, its thumbnail
  shards, and the sidecars holding unsynced offline work.
- **Registration** — `BackendProvider` and `BackendRegistry`.
  `ui/dr-ui/src/remote.rs` is now the only file above `dr-sync` that
  names a connector.

`Connection` (an account plus an optional `Secret`) replaces the
credentials-and-user-id pair that was threaded through fifteen
signatures in an order that could be swapped. `Secret`'s inner string is
reachable only through `expose()` and its `Debug` prints `Secret(***)`,
so the indirect leak — a `{:?}` on anything holding one — no longer
compiles into a leak.

Nextcloud is unchanged and keeps every peculiarity: propagating ETags,
chunked upload v2, `oc:fileid`, the `oc:permissions` probe on a refused
PUT, the 423 retry classification, Login Flow v2. Those are what the
capability model exists to serve, not something to hide.

`dr-sync-folder` is the second connector: a local disk, a network mount,
an external drive, or a folder a Nextcloud client already syncs. No
account, no credential — the route that works where no secrets daemon
does. It declares `LocalEtags` rather than claiming propagation a POSIX
directory cannot provide, which costs nothing because 50k `stat` calls
are not 50k PROPFINDs. Identity is a path hash, not an inode: an inode
survives a rename but differs between devices and is reused after a
delete, so two machines would disagree about which photograph a
thumbnail belonged to. Re-deriving a thumbnail is a cost; showing the
wrong one is a bug.

docs/storage.md is the contract — the traits, the four steps to add a
backend, and what each connector declares. ARCH §8.0 and §8.4a, and
FR-NC-13, say why.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 2d95807542 Package the models on every platform, not just the phone
The Android bundling landed the weights under that platform's asset directory,
which was the wrong home the moment a second packager wanted them. `makepkg -si`
produced a desktop install with no model at all — the same "no face model is
installed" the phone used to show, for the same reason: nothing put the files
anywhere the app looks.

So `models/face/` at the root is the one copy, and both packagers read it:
assemble-apk.sh bundles it as APK assets, and the PKGBUILD installs it to
/usr/share/darkroom/models. Both refuse an LFS pointer rather than shipping a
130-byte file that fails inside the graph loader on a user's machine.

`face_models` now searches three places, most specific first: the account's own
directory, the shared user directory, then $XDG_DATA_DIRS. So a packaged pair is
found automatically and a pair the user placed by hand still outranks it — which
is what keeps a deliberate choice of weights from being overridden by an
upgrade.

$XDG_DATA_DIRS rather than a hard-coded /usr/share: that is the variable a
distribution, a prefix install or a Nix-style store already sets to say where
its data went, and its documented default is exactly the two paths that would
otherwise have been hard-coded. Empty on Android, which has no such directories
— there the APK's copy is unpacked into the shared user directory instead,
because an asset inside a package is not a path anything can read from.

Verified: the APK still carries both models at assets/models/, the PKGBUILD
parses and installs from the new path, 467 tests pass.

Includes the pkgver 0.6.0 → 0.7.0 bump that was already sitting uncommitted in
the working tree.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 eaafacc3fb Give the phone the model it had no way to obtain
Face indexing was compiled into the APK all along — dr-ui takes dr-face with
`inference` on every target, so SCRFD, alignment, MBF, calibration and
clustering were all in there. What was missing was the weights, and on Android
there was no way to supply them.

Route C (docs/faces.md §2.2) says the user obtains the model and the app loads
it. On a desktop that is a real gesture: drop two files in
~/.local/share/darkroom/models/ and indexing starts working. On Android it is
not a gesture at all. `internal_data_path` is app-private, `run-as` needs a
debuggable build, and the in-app fetch route C specifies was never built — so
the settings page reported "no face model is installed" on every launch with
nothing behind the message. Not "off until you supply weights"; off.

So the shape-fixed pair goes into LFS under the APK's assets, assemble-apk.sh
copies it into the package, and `android_main` unpacks it to the shared models
directory before anything asks whether a model is present.

Three things that are not incidental:

The models directory is now shared across accounts rather than per-account.
Weights are identified by `faces.model_id`, not by who is signed in, so two
accounts had no reason to hold two copies — and the unpack runs before any
session exists to key a per-account path off. `face_models` still prefers a
per-account directory when one is populated, so anyone mid-migration keeps the
ability to pin one library to its own pair.

The unpack writes under a temporary name and renames. `face_models` decides
availability on `is_file()` alone, so a copy truncated by the process being
killed would leave a file that passes that test and fails inside tract —
reported to the user as a broken model rather than a missing one.

assemble-apk.sh refuses an LFS pointer. At ~130 bytes it looks exactly like a
model to `cp`, and unchecked it reaches the device and fails in the graph
loader instead of telling someone to run `git lfs pull` — the same guard
dr-segment's build script applies to yolo26n-seg.onnx.

The licensing half is unchanged and recorded in §2.2a: the InsightFace grant is
research-only, this is a private repository and a self-installed build, and
these files come back out before anything is published. The weights are still
not a cargo build input — dr-face has no `models/` directory and no
`embedded-model` feature, and nothing in the build reads them. The APK assembly
step copies two files and is the only thing in the tree that knows they exist.

Verified on device: both models unpack on first launch (2524817 and 13616095
bytes) and the APK carries them at assets/models/.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 3cfa78cde2 Give the app a face and a name on the launcher
There was no icon anywhere, and on Android that was not a missing line in the
manifest. `aapt2 link` was being handed a manifest and nothing else, so the
APK carried no res/ and no resources.arsc — there was no table for an
`@mipmap/...` reference to resolve against even if one had been written.
Packaging now compiles the resource tree first and links the result in, which
is the two steps aapt2 insists on: link reads compiled input only, never a
directory.

That absent table is also why the launcher caption was blank, which had
looked like a second, separate bug. `android:label="DarkRoom"` was there and
correct the whole time, and Settings' App info read it fine; the launcher
could not, because resolving a label goes through the package's Resources and
there were none to open. Nothing about the label changed here. It came back
with the table under it.

`android:icon` then names one drawable for both icon generations, because the
`anydpi-v26` qualifier is what separates them. API 26 and up take the adaptive
icon and its three layers; the third of those, monochrome, is what lets
Android 13 recolour it rather than drop the app out of the themed set. Below
26 the same name lands on a density-matched PNG. `roundIcon` is deliberately
absent — a launcher old enough to read it is one that would ignore the
adaptive XML, and minSdk is 28.

The desktop icon is one `@image-url` on the window, and the only raster asset
in a UI that is otherwise entirely Path. The reasoning at the top of
icons.slint does not reach it: that is about glyphs a font might not carry,
and this image is never drawn by us at all. It goes to the window manager,
which wants pixels and composites them unmasked, so it is pre-shaped with
rounded corners rather than square the way the Android layers are.

Which exposed Slint's resource default. An `@image-url` compiles down to the
absolute path it had on the build machine, to be opened at runtime — already
wrong for Android, where the build happens under /work inside a container and
no such directory exists on the device, and wrong silently, as an image that
loads empty. `EmbedFiles` puts the bytes in the binary instead. It reaches
nothing else, since every glyph is a Path.

Verified on a device: the APK installs and the home screen draws both the
icon and "DarkRoom" under it, where before it had neither. In the link step
the adaptive icon resolves at all six densities and resources.arsc lands
uncompressed, which API 30 requires and the existing zipalign preserves. On
the desktop by reading _NET_WM_ICON off the running window — 256x256, as
handed over. Where that actually shows is narrower than it sounds, and the
comment says so: Wayland ignores the property in favour of matching app_id
against an installed .desktop file, which this repo does not install.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 cf8f5b632f Show the develop frame itself, instead of a photocopy of it
The oldest open item in the project (ARCH §6.1, spike S1, AC-8). Every frame
in develop was read off the GPU into a `SharedPixelBuffer` and handed back to
Slint to upload again: ~7 ms at 4K against a 0.28 ms compute pass, 96% of the
frame spent carrying pixels to the CPU and back so they could be drawn where
they already were.

Slint 1.17 will adopt a `wgpu::Texture` directly, and the whole of what that
needs is arrangement rather than code.

**One device, made before the window.** A texture belongs to the device that
allocated it, so the compute passes and the compositor cannot each open their
own. `GpuContext::new_shared` opens one and hands back the instance and
adapter alongside it; `dr_ui::shared_gpu` gives all four to
`BackendSelector::require_wgpu_29(WGPUConfiguration::Manual { .. })`. That
call has to come before the first window, because creating one selects a
backend for you — which is why the GPU is now opened at the top of `run`
rather than two hundred lines down beside the other controllers.

dr-gpu still names no UI type. It hands out raw wgpu and does not ask who is
compositing (ARCH §6.5a).

**Vulkan only on the shared path**, where headless keeps its GL fallback.
wgpu's GL backend reaches its display through EGL at instance creation, and
before a window exists there is no display handle to give it — so a GL
instance cannot later produce the window surface Slint needs from it. A
machine with no Vulkan gets no shared device and browses without develop,
which is the same degradation as no adapter at all.

**`renderer-femtovg` becomes `renderer-femtovg-wgpu`.** The old one is FemtoVG
over OpenGL and cannot be handed a wgpu texture at all. It is not kept
alongside as a fallback: FemtoVG-over-GL has no branch for an imported
texture, falls through to "render this image into a buffer", gets nothing, and
draws nothing — a blank canvas with no error, which is worse than the failure
it would be papering over. The consequence is stated plainly in the manifest:
the desktop app now needs a working wgpu adapter to open a window.

**Two output textures, not one, and this is the part that is not obvious.**
Slint repaints when the image property *changes*, and it decides that with
`PartialEq` — which for two images over the same `wgpu::Texture` says
"unchanged". A pass that reused a single target would have rendered every
slider move correctly on the GPU and shown none of them: right, and invisible.
`AdjustPass` alternates between two targets, so consecutive frames are
genuinely different values. It also settles the read-while-write question that
one queue was already answering.

`RENDER_ATTACHMENT` is added to both render targets. Neither pass uses it;
Slint rejects an imported texture without it, on the reasoning that a
compositor handed a texture may need to draw into it.

**`AdjustPass::read_output` is deleted rather than gated.** It and
`export_pixels` were the same transfer under two names, and the comments
explaining why they were separate are the point of the whole criterion:
reading pixels back to *display* them is the defect, reading them back to
*encode a file* is the only way a file is made. The display twin is now gone
outright, which is stronger than a feature flag — it cannot be turned back on.
`export_pixels` is untouched and still ungated. The `readback` feature comes
off dr-ui, darkroom-desktop and darkroom-android; it stays in dr-gpu, where it
still gates `RenderTarget::read_pixels` and the segmentation field readback.
`examples/develop` moves to `export_pixels`, which is honest — it writes a
PPM — and so no longer needs the feature.

Four tests, each named for what it protects and each of which fails without a
screen if the property it guards breaks:

- the adjust target satisfies every condition Slint's import checks, asserted
  in the crate that owns the descriptor, because a descriptor that drifts
  fails at runtime on a real display and nothing else would notice;
- consecutive renders are different textures, and the third is the first
  again, so the alternation is a rotation and not an allocation per frame;
- the develop canvas has no CPU pixel buffer and does have a wgpu texture —
  AC-8 itself, in the terms Slint uses;
- consecutive frames compare unequal as `slint::Image`, which is the property
  the repaint actually depends on.

The zoom test's readback moves into the test module. It has to: there is no
library function that copies a displayed frame to the CPU any more, and that
is the point — the round-trip now exists in the test binary and nowhere a
shipping build can reach.

**What is not proven.** No GUI was run. What is verified is that the texture
satisfies the import contract, that the import succeeds, that the canvas is a
texture rather than a buffer, and that consecutive frames are distinguishable.
What is unverified is everything that needs a display: that Slint's FemtoVG
wgpu renderer adopts the Manual configuration on a real surface, that the
picture appears the right way up and the right colour, and the frame timing
that motivated the whole exercise. Android is untouched by testing — the
android backend routes a WGPU29 request to Skia, whose wgpu surface does
handle imported textures, but that is read from the source, not observed.

56 dr-gpu tests and 255 dr-ui tests pass, clippy clean under `-D warnings`,
fmt clean.

Fills in `image_cache`, which the previous commit's "On this device" filter
read but nothing wrote. Also carries in-flight work that shared these files:
the Android TLS root store, the settings page, and a regenerated
traceability report.

# Two populations, deliberately separate

An original is kept here for one of two reasons, and conflating them produces
the exact failure the feature exists to prevent.

**Pinned** originals were asked for. Pinning a collection before a trip is a
promise, so pinned rows are never evicted and never counted against the
budget — a cap that could silently delete a pinned trip would make pinning
worthless, because it could not be relied on without checking.

**Passively cached** originals are a side effect of working: develop already
downloads the whole file, so keeping it costs no bandwidth and saves the
entire transfer next time. This population is what the budget bounds, evicted
least-recently-used, because it otherwise grows until a day of culling fills
a disk.

Sharing one budget would let a large pin starve the passive cache, or let
browsing evict a pin. They are separate.

# What was built

`dr_catalog::cache` owns the bookkeeping — held tier, size, last use, pinned
— and writes the bytes; deciding to download stays with the caller, which is
what keeps a crate with no network out of the network's business. Files are
written to a temporary and renamed, so a dropped connection cannot leave a
truncated file recorded as a complete original. They are named by image id,
not filename: `Photos/IMG_0001.CR2` and `Trips/IMG_0001.CR2` are different
photographs, and a flat cache keyed on the name would serve one for the other.

`spawn_full_fetch` became read-through. A hit is a disk read; a miss stores
what it downloads and enforces the budget. A cache that cannot be opened is a
miss, not a failure to open the photograph.

Pinning writes intent — `tier_desired` — without downloading, so the button
responds immediately, and `spawn_pin_fetch` fills it in sequentially
afterwards. Sequential because these are tens of megabytes each: the lanes
that make the thumbnail sweep fast buy little against one connection's
bandwidth and cost a great deal of memory. A pin interrupted by a lost
connection resumes from where it stopped.

Schema v5 adds `pinned` and `path`. `pinned` is a column rather than something
inferred from `pinned_by_rule`, which is ON DELETE SET NULL and so cannot
answer for an image whose rule was deleted. A v4 catalog migrates in place;
existing rows default to unpinned, the safe direction.

The budget and "keep opened originals" come from the settings page rather than
a constant, and are applied at startup rather than only on change — a cache
capped at 2 GB last session would otherwise spend this one filling to the
default. Turning off keeping leaves what is already cached readable: those
bytes are paid for, and refusing them would re-download images sitting right
there, including pinned ones.

Also removes a doubled `#[test]` introduced in the previous commit.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 d49b4b41de Add thumbnail size classes and grid zoom; fix the scrub ordinal
The grid now zooms, which needs thumbnails at two resolutions rather than
one, and exposed a scrub that landed in the wrong place.

**Two thumbnail size classes.** `ThumbSize::Grid` (256px, ~10 KB) and
`Large` (1024px, ~45 KB), with the class part of the store key so both
coexist. Storing everything large would take the reference library from
~200 MB to ~860 MB, and shards sync, so that is transfer cost on every
device rather than only disk. A store written before the class existed
migrates in place: its entries are all grid-sized, which is what the
column defaults to, so nothing already fetched is discarded.

`forget` now drops every size for an image. Reading a single row left the
other class's bytes on the shard's tally for good, sealing it early on
space nothing occupied.

**Grid zoom.** Ctrl+wheel and pinch resize cells between 90px and 420px in
geometric steps, so the gesture feels the same at either end where a fixed
pixel step would be imperceptible at 400px and violent at 90px. Crossing
256px switches to the large class, so a zoomed cell is sharp rather than
upscaled. Columns and window capacity already derived from cell size, so
the grid reflows for free.

**The scrub landed about half a library too high.** It counted only dated
images while the grid shows all of them — 10,733 dated against 19,841
rows — and ignored `shadowed_by`. Verified against the live catalog: the
old formula gave 10,887, the new one 10,732, the true grid position
10,732. The scrub's count and the grid's window must use identical
predicates and ordering; a test now fails if they diverge.

**Timeline gestures are continuous.** Scrub and pan were quantised to
whole buckets, so a slow drag did nothing until it crossed a boundary and
then jumped a month. Both work in fractions of the visible span now, and
pinch-to-zoom arrives for tablet, where there is no wheel to reach the
axis with.

The pinch accumulator was wrong on first writing: it took at most one step
per update, so an 8x spread — three doublings — yielded one zoom level.
`log2().trunc()` now extracts every whole doubling and carries the
remainder. The original test asserted the wrong number and defended it in
a comment, which is worth remembering: a test can entrench a bug as
readily as catch one.

dtourolle 9a24623e35 Fix the workspace build off-device
Two breaks that only appeared on a full `cargo test --workspace`.

`slint::android` exists only when compiling for Android, so darkroom-android
failed to compile on the host even though it is a workspace member. The entry
point is now gated on the target rather than on a feature.

The timeline forwarded `scrub` where the Timeline component declares
`scrub-to`, which the Slint compiler rejects.

Cap both halves of the container build: CARGO_BUILD_JOBS limits how many
rustc processes cargo starts, while --cpus limits what the container gets
regardless of what nested build scripts spawn — cc, cmake, and ring's asm
build all parallelise on their own account and do not consult cargo. Without
both, a full cross-compile takes every thread on the host and makes the
machine unusable for the length of a background build.
