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 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.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 7418b040da Refuse a scan whose root has gone, instead of reporting it empty
FR-PLAT-AND-2, and a silent failure on both platforms. `dr_sync::scan`
stepped over a NotFound or PermissionDenied the way it does for a child
that vanished mid-walk -- correct for a child, wrong for the root, where
it ended the walk, returned Ok with nothing in it, and reported a
successful scan of a library that was no longer there.

A lost root is now its own error. The images under it are marked
Availability::Offline per FR-CAT-9 and no catalog row is deleted;
`library::persist` clears the mark per file as each one is listed again,
so a root that comes back needs no repair step.

Partly satisfied rather than closed, and the gap is worth stating.
The recovery half is real and reachable on Android today, because
`map_status` turns Nextcloud's 403 and 404 into it and Nextcloud is how
a phone actually gets a library in this build. The causes the
requirement names -- revocation, reinstall, a removed card -- are
properties of a persisted tree permission, and there is none: SAF does
not exist here, `SourceRef::Document` is constructed only in test
modules, and `LocalStorage` rejects the variant outright. When SAF
lands it becomes a third producer of this error and nothing above it
changes, which is why the discovery belongs in the connector.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 55cb9b5b30 Keep the test scene's own arithmetic from overflowing a u64
The first compile this branch ever had. `cargo fmt` reflowed four files
and clippy passed at -D warnings untouched, but one test panicked:
`the_signature_does_not_change_with_scale`, on "attempt to multiply with
overflow".

It is the fixture, not the feature. `scene()`'s little LCG multiplied the
block's y by the golden-ratio constant with a plain `*` while the term
beside it already used `wrapping_mul`, so any scene taller than about 104
pixels overflowed in debug. Only the scale test builds one that large,
which is why 345 of 346 passed around it.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 e5db849f04 Mark a burst in the grid, and let it be folded away
The counterpart to the grouping: where the signatures come from, and how a
group reaches a cell.

Signatures are computed from the 256px thumbnails dr-thumbs already holds --
vastly more resolution than a 9x8 reduction can use -- so a library that has
been browsed, or that has synced somebody else's shards, has already paid for
them and no RAW is decoded for this. The consequence is stated rather than
hidden: an image with no thumbnail gets no signature and never joins a burst.
That is self-correcting, and it is why the pass runs when the thumbnail sweep
finishes rather than on a timer. Nothing happens at import and nothing happens
at query time.

The mark is drawn as a child of the cell's TouchArea, for the same reason the
star strip is: a click on it must not also reach `cell-clicked` and throw the
user into develop, and children are hit-tested before the element they sit in.
It is never hidden on hover the way the stars are -- a collapsed burst stands
in for frames that are not on screen, and something has to say so whether or
not a pointer is nearby.

Folding changes what the grid's *query* returns rather than what its cells
draw, because the grid is a window over an ordered query and the frames a fold
hides are mostly not loaded. So the predicate joins VISIBLE in every query
that lists or counts cells -- the window, the header's count, the run a
shift-click resolves, and the ordinal a scrub lands on -- under the discipline
VISIBLE's own comment sets out: present in four places of five is worse than
absent, because the counts disagree with the cells and neither looks wrong on
its own. There is a test for exactly that.

`the_window_read_walks_the_ordering_index` now includes the burst clause. It
asserts on the query plan while holding its own copy of the query, so left
alone it would have gone on reporting green against a query the grid no longer
runs. If the clause costs `images_grid_order` and puts the sort back, that
fails here rather than becoming jitter someone measures in six months.

The pass keeps its own drain timer in a thread-local instead of taking fields
on the library controller, so everything the feature needs to run lives in one
file and the screen that starts it holds nothing.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 f5edd49b6b Let a manual collection be put in the order it is meant to be seen in
`collection_members.position` and `Sort::CollectionPosition` have been in the
catalog since collections were, and nothing above dr-catalog has ever written
or read either: `collections::set_order` had no callers, and the grid ordered
everything by capture time whatever it was scoped to — dr-ui does not construct
a `Query` at all, it has its own `GRID_ORDER` constant. So a manual collection
was a set with an order nobody could see or change.

Three pieces, because it could not be fewer:

`grid_order_for` decides the ordering from the scope, and both readers take it
from there. That is the load-bearing part. An ordinal only names a photograph
relative to an ordering, so the window read and the span read have to agree —
a shift-click resolved through a different ORDER BY than the cells were drawn
with selects a different run than the one on screen, and the user finds out
when the export runs. `read_ids_span` already stated that invariant about
`GRID_ORDER`; this widens it to an ordering that depends on the scope.

Only a single manual collection has one. A set draws its descendants' images
too, and two children's positions are unrelated integers that interleave
arbitrarily; a smart collection has no member rows to carry a position at all.
Both fall back to capture time and refuse the drop rather than pretending.

The drop is on the cell, on whichever half of it the finger landed — the
trailing edge is the only way to name the last place in a collection, since
there is no cell beyond the last one to drop in front of.

`reordered` is pure and the membership is rewritten whole. `set_order` sets the
positions it is given and leaves the rest, so a partial write would interleave
the moved run with rows nobody touched; and it is read unfiltered, so what the
filter is hiding keeps its place relative to what the user can see.

dtourolle 5768100816 Borrow the library to index it, and give it back
The passes that need every photograph's bytes — thumbnails, face
indexing — now borrow each one and release it at the end. On a
placeholder library that is the difference between peak disk being the
working set and being the whole library.

Including on cancellation, which was nearly missed: the face sweep
returns mid-loop when the user presses Stop, and without releasing there
the disk is spent and nothing is delivered for it.

`materialise` now answers whether *it* fetched the content. The pool used
to work that out by listing a file's parent directory — one listing per
file across a library — when the backend already had to `stat` it to
decide whether to ask. One syscall instead of a directory walk, and it
removes the bug class the tests found earlier: a file at the library root
has no `parent()`, so every one of them read as already-downloaded.

**Pinning is the retention control**, and it drives the model the catalog
already had rather than a second one. `tier_desired` is what the user
asked to keep hydrated, `pending_pins` is the resumable work list, and a
pinned collection is never dehydrated for the same reason it was never
evicted. It was in fact *broken* here before: `get` on a stub failed, and
the pin worker logged "one unreadable file must not abandon the whole
pin" and silently did nothing.

Pinned originals on such a library are recorded with `path = NULL`
(`Cache::record_in_place`) rather than copied under `originals/`. Two
reasons, and the second is the important one. A copy would hold every
pinned photograph twice, with the budget able to evict the half that was
not costing the disk. And `release` deletes the file a row names — so a
row that names none cannot delete anything, which puts the one
catastrophic operation out of reach by construction rather than by
remembering not to call it. Deleting a materialised file inside a synced
tree removes the photograph from the server and every other device.

Handing disk back is `spawn_dehydrate`, which asks the client.

Two gaps written down rather than papered over (docs/storage.md §7): a
hydrating pass cannot yet quote its cost, because a stub reports no size;
and the two sweeps hold separate pools, so a library indexed for both
fetches twice.

dtourolle c102ba9df2 Treat a placeholder as the photograph, not as a one-byte file
The folder connector was pointed at a Nextcloud VFS tree and got three
things wrong, the first of which loses work.

**A dehydrated sidecar read as absent.** `a.drsc` does not exist when the
client has dehydrated it — only `a.drsc.nextcloud` does — so `get` missed,
`.ok()` swallowed the `NotFound`, and the sidecar writer took that for
"there is no sidecar yet" and wrote a fresh document over the existing
one. Every edit another device had put there went with it. That function's
own doc comment calls this the exact loss the format's unknown-key
preservation exists to prevent.

**A stub was catalogued as a 1-byte image**, and ARCH §9.0 measured this
machine at 121,785 placeholders against 10,267 real files — so a folder
library on a synced tree was ~92% broken rows.

**Identity changed on hydration**, so downloading a photograph looked like
a delete and an add, orphaning its thumbnail and its face rows.

Entries now carry the photograph's own name and a `materialised` flag;
`get` on a stub returns the new `RemoteError::NotMaterialised`, which is
distinct from `NotFound` precisely because the sidecar writer must treat
them differently — it fetches the sidecar and merges, or leaves the entry
queued.

Hydration is a **borrow**. `BorrowPool` records what was on disk before it
asked, so `release_all` dehydrates only what a pass brought and leaves
what the user already had. Reference counted: the thumbnail pass and the
face pass meet on the same RAW, and without counting the first to finish
dehydrates the file the second is reading. A borrow against a plain folder
or a server does nothing, so a pass written for VFS runs everywhere.

Releasing means asking the client to dehydrate and never deleting: a
deletion inside a synced tree propagates to the server and removes the
photograph from every device.

Not a second backend — the capability is per *connection*, not per type,
since the same folder hydrates only while the client runs. The convention
arrives through a detector the registry supplies, so `dr-sync-folder`
still knows nothing about any client's protocol.

ARCH §9.0a records this as an amendment: finding 3 rejected hydration
because it costs 100× a range read, and that comparison assumed a
connector was available. A folder library has none.

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 af5a13b3f7 Narrow the grid to several people at once, either way
"Show photos" could only ever mean one person. The two questions a photographer
actually asks are "every picture of Anna or Bob" and "the pictures they are both
in", and the second is not reachable by any sequence of single-person filters —
no amount of switching between one person and another finds the frame they
share.

So the filter holds a *set* of people and a mode. `RatingFilter` was already the
right home, as its own doc says: every query path threads it, so the count in
the header and the cells in the grid are narrowed by the same thing, and this
composes with stars, flags and the date range for free.

The union is `EXISTS ... person_id IN (...)`. The intersection counts
**distinct** people per image and compares against the size of the selection —
one subquery rather than one per person, and it does not grow the statement with
the selection. `DISTINCT` is what makes it correct: three faces of Anna in one
frame must not satisfy a filter asking for Anna and Bob, and there is a test
that says so.

Any rather than All is the default. With one person the modes are the same
filter, and adding a second to a union can only ever show more — so a user who
has not noticed the toggle never ends up staring at an empty grid wondering what
they broke. The toggle only appears at two people, because a control that
demonstrably does nothing is a control that teaches the user to ignore it.

Building the set needs no picker of its own: the Identity screen gains "And
also…" beside "Show photos", offered only once the grid is already narrowed to
somebody. Each person is a chip on the filter bar and each chip removes just
that person, so a selection of three can be taken apart one at a time rather
than only cleared wholesale.

`RatingFilter` stops being `Copy`, since it now holds a `Vec`. Every query path
already took it by reference; the casualties were two struct updates and one
`Cell` that becomes a `RefCell`.

484 dr-ui tests pass, including the union, the intersection, that one person
reads the same in both modes, and the repeated-faces trap.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 d6380fecc8 Make the People screen a place work can be done
Five faults, all on one screen, and the Slint and Rust halves of each have to
land together.

**Regroup froze the window.** It ran inside the Slint callback, on the UI
thread. It is much faster now, but fast is not bounded — the work grows with the
library, and the one thing that must not grow with the library is how long the
window stops answering. It runs on a worker thread with an mpsc channel and a
250ms poll, like every other long pass in this module, and the button says what
it is doing instead of the window going quiet. Cancellation is dropping the
receiver. Reclustering also prunes the empty groups the previous pass left, so
pressing the button twice no longer fills the rail with "Unnamed (0 faces)".

**The faces were a single row running off the screen.** The comment on the
layout claimed to be a wrapping row; Slint has no flow layout and a
HorizontalLayout does not wrap, so a person with forty faces was a person whose
faces could not be reviewed past the fifth. It is now laid out the way the
library grid lays out thumbnails, with the same arithmetic: choose how many
columns of roughly the requested size fit, then divide the width between them so
the cells fill the row exactly and nothing overhangs.

**The header did not fit a phone.** A 240px name field beside five buttons is
wider than an Android screen — and worse than not fitting, a layout cannot be
narrower than its children's minimums, so the row reported that oversized
minimum upwards and inflated the whole screen. The faces grid is its sibling, so
it would have been measured against a width that was never on the display. The
header is now two rows, the actions sit in a Flickable that scrolls rather than
overflowing, and the rail narrows to 132px on the compact class.

**Strangers crowded out the people who matter.** Most clusters in a real library
are passers-by and other people's guests. "Not interested" sets a group aside;
the rail hides it and says how many are hidden, with one button to bring them
back. Reversible, and never a deletion — see the catalog commit for why.

**A face was a dead end.** Identifying someone and then having no way to see
their photographs is a filing cabinet with no drawer handles. "Show photos"
narrows the library grid to that person and leaves a chip on the filter bar
saying so, which is also how it is cleared. It is a term on `RatingFilter`
rather than a grid scope of its own, exactly as that struct's own doc says new
narrowing terms should be — so the count and the cells are narrowed by the same
thing, and it composes with the others for free. Suggested faces count, not only
confirmed ones, or a freshly grouped person would show an empty grid.

Crops are read from where they are now stored, falling back to cutting one out
of the proxy for faces indexed before that existed.

480 tests pass.

Master moved 24 commits while this branch was building the face sweep, and one
of them changed how the interface reaches a server: `remote.rs` is now the only
file that names a connector, and everything else takes `&dyn RemoteBackend`.
The face sweep was written before that landed and built a `NextcloudBackend`
directly. Git merged the text without complaint and the result did not compile,
which is the useful kind of conflict — it goes through `remote::connect` now,
like every other pass.

Two documentation conflicts, both resolved toward master. `code-health.md` was
an add/add: master's copy carries the CH resolution for the backend seam and a
better provenance note, so it wins outright, with its measured figures re-taken
against the merged tree rather than either side's — `run()` is 1,855 lines now,
2,042 tests, 793 traceability tags. `traceability.md` is generated, so it was
regenerated rather than hand-merged.

The seam grades in code-health.md are unchanged by this merge. That is worth
noticing rather than glossing: the face work went into the seams that already
existed — `run()`, `library.rs`, `AppWindow` — which is exactly the pressure
CH-1 describes rather than evidence against it.

All four CI jobs pass: desktop (fmt, clippy, test, build), layering, traceability,
and the Android cross-build.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 371038614f Fetch the repairs first, or they never happen
The repair added in 051447b was appended to the work list:

    wanted.extend(repair);

Behind every un-indexed image in the library. On this library that is position
23,000-odd — roughly two hours of fetching before the first repair is reached,
which inside one session is indistinguishable from the feature not existing.
The log said it had found them and the screen stayed empty, which is the worst
combination of the two.

They go first now. There are a few hundred of them against tens of thousands of
un-indexed images, and they are precisely the images the People screen is
failing to draw at this moment — so the ordering costs nothing and is the
difference between the grid filling in within a minute and not filling in at
all.

A failure to build the un-indexed half no longer discards the repairs either:
the pass runs with whatever it has rather than returning empty.

Verified on the live catalog: 455 images hold faces, 251 already have a proxy
from the fixed sweep, and the remaining 204 are what now sits at the front of
the queue. The stored proxies check out — a valid JPEG at the large class,
49 KB — so the storing half of 051447b was already working.

471 tests pass, including one that the orphan is ordered ahead of the library.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 242374fd0f Let the interface hold a backend without knowing whose it is
`dr-sync` defines `RemoteBackend` and a capability model the engine adapts
to, so a second backend can be added without touching the code that uses
one. That boundary was documentation. Seven files in `dr-ui` constructed a
`NextcloudBackend` directly, ten functions took one by concrete type, and
exactly two call sites in the tree — both inside `dr-sync` itself — ever held
the trait object. A WebDAV or local-folder backend would have had a
well-written trait to implement and nowhere to go afterwards.

The change is smaller than the finding suggests, because the trait was
already right. Every method the UI has ever called on a backend — `get`,
`put`, `list`, `delete`, `create_dir`, `move_to` — was already on it, so
nothing had to be added and no behaviour moved. Ten signatures widened to
`&dyn RemoteBackend`, sixteen constructions became `remote::connect`, and
`remote.rs` is now the only file in the interface that names a connector.

`connect` returns `Result<Box<dyn RemoteBackend>, RemoteError>`. The error
type is `dr-sync`'s rather than the connector's, which is why every call site
kept its shape — the `match`, the `let Ok(..) else`, and
`.map_err(ScanFailure::local)?` all still read as they did.

One wrinkle worth recording: `&Box<dyn Trait>` does not reach `&dyn Trait` on
its own. The compiler reaches for unsizing, which wants
`Box<dyn RemoteBackend>: RemoteBackend`, and reports a confusing missing impl
rather than suggesting a deref. Twelve call sites therefore say `&*backend`,
and two say `let backend: &dyn RemoteBackend = &*backend` where a borrow is
shared across lanes.

What this does *not* do is abstract credentials. `AppCredentials` is an app
password from Login Flow v2 — a Nextcloud protocol, not a general notion of
authenticating to a remote — and seven files still name it. An OAuth token, a
bucket key pair and an app password have no useful common shape, so deciding
what an account is across backends before a second one exists would be a
confident guess. code-health.md CH-2 now records that as the remaining half,
and it should wait for the backend that forces it.

Verified: fmt clean, clippy clean at -D warnings, 2041 tests pass.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 051447bda6 Keep the proxy a found face will be cropped from
Every cell on the People screen read "no preview" while the sweep was happily
reporting 893 faces found. Both were true. Faces were being detected and stored
correctly; there was simply nothing left to draw them from.

A face is stored normalised and drawn by cropping the proxy it was found on —
`identity::decode_proxy` reads `FACE_TIER` out of the thumbnail store. The
fetching sweep fetched a preview, detected on it, wrote the faces and dropped
the pixels. So every face it found pointed at a proxy that had never been
stored, and the grid had nothing to cut.

Worse, that state could not repair itself: the image has its `face_index` row,
so it is not outstanding work and no later pass would look at it again.

Two fixes, and the first is nearly free. The sweep now keeps the proxy — it has
already paid the round trip and the decode, and the crop needs those same pixels
the moment the user opens the person. Kept **only where a face was found**:
two thirds of a personal library is landscapes and documents (docs/faces.md
§7a), those will never be cropped, and skipping them keeps this well clear of
the whole-library cost `SWEEP_THUMB_SIZE` deliberately avoids. The downscale to
the large class happens after detection, which is the last use of the full
buffer.

Second, the sweep now picks up images that have faces with no proxy, whatever
put them in that state — this bug, or an ordinary cache eviction, which would
have produced exactly the same empty grid. Re-running detection repairs it and
loses nothing: `record_detections` replaces rather than appends and carries the
user's confirmations across the replacement. That makes the screen
self-healing rather than dependent on nobody ever evicting a thumbnail.

The proxy is stored *before* the detections. A kill between the two then leaves
a proxy with no faces — which the next pass simply re-indexes — rather than
faces with no proxy, which is the state that cannot recover.

Note for the library already part way through a sweep: the 986 images indexed
before this will be picked up by the repair route on the next run.

470 tests pass, including one that a face whose proxy is gone becomes work again.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 c8c6368542 Index the whole library by fetching what it has not seen
"Index faces in the whole library" could not. Its work list was intersected
with the thumbnail store at `ThumbSize::Large`, and nothing fills that class for
a whole library — `SWEEP_THUMB_SIZE` is deliberately `Grid`, because the large
class is ~860 MB of shards against ~200 MB and every syncing device pays it. So
the only images with a large proxy were the ones the user had personally zoomed
into or opened in the loupe. On this library that was 220 of 23,529.

The comment defending it misread the requirement:

    // Requesting one here would put face indexing on the network path,
    // which FR-CULL-8 explicitly keeps it off.

FR-CULL-8 keeps indexing off the **full decode**, not the network, and then says
the opposite in the same paragraph: "where no proxy exists, the job requests one
at background priority rather than decoding inline". faces.md §7 repeats it.
Neither was implemented.

So the pass fetches. Same two-stage route the thumbnail sweep uses — the header,
then the located preview's own byte range (FR-NC-3) — so no whole file is pulled
and no RAW is decoded, because an embedded preview is a JPEG. The work list is
now every visible image with no `face_index` row for the model: 23,308 here,
against nearly none before.

**It indexes at the resolution the preview actually has**, not the 1024 the old
tier would have given. `locate_preview` already picks the largest embedded
preview, and the thumbnail sweep was decoding it and throwing the detail away at
`downscale_to(256)`. A face 2% across the frame is 5 px on a grid thumbnail and
~61 px at the cap here — and 112 is what the embedder samples, so this is the
difference between an upsampled crop and a real one. `crop_px` records which,
per face, as §7 intended.

Capped at 3072 rather than truly full: `index_proxy` needs packed `f32` RGB at
12 bytes a pixel, so a 24 MP frame is ~288 MB and the fetch lanes hold one each.
The constant is named and sits next to the reason.

Orientation is applied **before** detection, not after downscaling. That costs a
permutation of a larger buffer — ~15 ms against a ~150 ms decode — and buys the
entire class of bug this codebase keeps having: detection then runs on the
photograph rather than the sensor, so every box and landmark is already in the
space the catalog stores and the overlay draws, with no second mapping to get
backwards.

One detector and one embedder serve every lane. The lanes are concurrent futures
on a single thread, not threads, and inference contains no await, so a `RefCell`
borrow never overlaps another — a pair per lane would duplicate ~16 MB of
weights for no parallelism.

Images with no face in them are recorded too. `face_index` records that
detection *ran*, and zero is its most valuable value: without the row every
landscape and document scan returns on every pass, for ever, and in a personal
library that is most of it (§7a).

The old store-only pass survives as `spawn_store_face_sweep` for
`examples/face_index.rs`, which indexes a local store with no network. The
settings copy no longer claims indexing reads "the photographs already
thumbnailed above", and the audit line says "to fetch" rather than "awaiting a
proxy", which had become a blocker that no longer blocks.

Verified against the real catalog: the new work list returns 23,308 where the
old one returned effectively nothing. 469 tests pass.

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 26a1eb7e28 Record that face detection has run, not just what it found
An image with no faces in it was indistinguishable from one that had
never been looked at, so every landscape, still life and document scan in
the library was re-detected on every pass, for ever. In a real library
that is most of it: on the 23,527-image test library, 64 of the first 110
images indexed contain no face at all.

Schema v9 adds face_index, a run marker per (image, model) carrying the
face count and the proxy edge it read. Keyed on the model, so a model
change puts every image back in the queue by itself.

That makes a coverage figure possible, which is the thing a user actually
wants to see. The audit also splits the outstanding set by whether a
proxy exists, because 23,417 awaiting a proxy and 110 ready to index are
different problems, and telling the user to run indexing again would not
fix the first.

The Identity screen gains Index faces, Stop, and the coverage line.
examples/face_index.rs is the same check and sweep without a window,
which is the right shape for an overnight pass.

Measured on the real library in release: 3.5 images/second, 110 images
and 125 faces in 30 seconds, and a second run correctly finds nothing
left to do.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 3b5952769b Emit floats an f32 can hold, and drop the format! that formats nothing
CI runs cargo fmt --check and clippy -D warnings, and this branch had
never been through either. Both would have failed it.

The bulk was the generated colour tables: eight significant figures where
an f32 carries about 7.2, so the eighth is noise that rounds away at
compile time and clippy's excessive_precision says so 109 times over.
Fixed in the generator rather than only in the file, so it stays fixed --
and the file is trimmed in place rather than re-derived, because
regenerating it needs a colour-science stack that has nothing to do with
the defect.

The format! in the composer is mine too, from extracting the rendering
tail: the braces in it were escaped because the text used to live inside a
larger template, and once extracted the escapes are noise and the call
formats nothing.

Also here, and clearly not mine: an unused import and a shadowed binding
in dr-gpu, and an unused import in a test. They are pre-existing --
clippy has been failing on master before this branch existed, on lints
like is_multiple_of that arrived with a toolchain rather than with
anyone's code. Fixed because CI cannot go green around them, and called
out because a merge commit is a bad place to quietly edit someone else's
crate.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 6d6ef8d34b Page the grid along an index instead of sorting the library each time
Scrolling jittered, and this was the largest single reason. Every window the
grid loads is `ORDER BY ... LIMIT n OFFSET k`, and neither half of that was
being answered the cheap way.

**The sort.** `GRID_ORDER` leads with `captured_at IS NULL`, so undated frames
fall to the end. No ordinary index answers that — the leading term is an
expression, not a column — so SQLite sorted the whole library into a temp
b-tree on every window read, then threw away the first `k` rows of it. Schema
V7 indexes the expression exactly as the query writes it, partial on the same
`shadowed_by IS NULL AND trashed_at IS NULL` the grid filters by, so the read
becomes a walk along the index.

**The join.** `LEFT JOIN remote` was paged *after* it was joined, so reading
280 cells at offset 20,000 first seeked into `remote` for all 24,000 rows and
then discarded 23,720 of them. The file ids are now fetched for the 280 rows
that survived — the shape the badge and rating reads already use, one query for
the window rather than one per cell.

Measured together on 24,000 images at offset 20,000: **15.2 ms → 0.36 ms**,
inside a scroll handler that has 16.7 ms to draw a frame.

The test asserts on the query plan rather than on a duration, because there is
no other symptom. A `GRID_ORDER` edited out of step with the index, or a column
added back that drags `remote` in again, both still return exactly the right
cells — just after sorting the library — and the jitter would come back with
nothing to point at.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 baa8957e80 Let a photographer choose the film, and remember which one
The stock model rendered correctly and nothing could ask for it. This is
the picker, and the sidecar key that makes the choice outlive the session.

How the choice persists was the open question, and the answer was already
written down twice in sidecar.rs: `rating` is a top-level key "because a
rating is not an edit", and `masks` are one "because a layer is not a
scalar". A stock is that kind of thing -- a choice of material, not a
number a slider moves -- so it is a top-level key too.

It stores the **id**, not an index. Stocks are files that users add, so an
index would mean installing a profile silently changed which film every
existing photograph had been developed on. A name this build has no
profile for still round-trips untouched, because the alternative is that
syncing to an older phone quietly un-develops the picture.

Only the names travel. Turning one back into tables needs the profile
database, which dr-pipeline deliberately does not link, so `Version::apply`
clears the film and the session re-bakes -- after the parameters, because
the bake reads the film's own exposure sliders and the print balance is
solved against them. That is also why moving those sliders rebuilds the
lookup where no other control in the panel does: an enlarger's filtration
depends on how the negative was exposed.

The panel keeps its rule. It still names no operation and still generates
every control from a declared parameter kind; the stock gets a bespoke
control beside those, exactly as the mask stack does, and for the same
reason. The film's exposure and print exposure arrive as ordinary
generated sliders.

Two defaults worth stating. Picking a colour negative prints it, because
an unprinted one is an orange strip and offering that as the first thing
somebody sees after choosing Portra reads as a bug rather than as a
choice -- the toggle is there for anyone who wants the scan. And a paste
carries no film: a preset is a parameter map, and a stock is not a
parameter, so pasting one would paste a choice the clipboard never took.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 54f9cb54fb Take the whole run a shift-click names, not the part that happens to be loaded
Shift-clicking two photographs selected only the cells between them that were
in the loaded window. The grid is a window of a hundred or so over a library of
twenty thousand, and `apply_press` resolved the range against that window —
`ids[lo_row..=hi_row]`, clamped to what was there. Everything else in the run
had no id anywhere in the UI, so it was silently dropped. The user cannot see
that: the selection count is off screen along with the photographs, and the
gesture only announces itself when the drop files a dozen images instead of two
hundred.

The two ends are *ordinals*, and only the catalog knows what lies between them.
`read_ids_span` asks it, through the same predicates, the same rating filter and
the same ordering the window itself is read with — an ordinal names a photograph
only relative to an ordering, so a run taken through any other one is a run
through a different library. That ordering is now a constant, `GRID_ORDER`,
shared by the window, the trash's own order beside it, and the run: capture time
first, with the file name breaking ties and nothing more. A card written by two
cameras interleaves names that have nothing to do with each other, and what
"everything between these two" means to a photographer is a stretch of an
afternoon.

The query is reached through a closure handed to `CollectionsController` at
wiring time rather than a catalog handle, because the scope and the filter that
bound the run belong to the grid's controller. `apply_press` stays a pure
function of what it is given, which is what keeps the selection rules testable
with no library open — and the tests pass a run that reads a plain slice. Where
there is nothing to ask, the loaded window is still used: a poorer answer than
the catalog's and a far better one than a gesture that appears to do nothing.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 fa4ad6e2d6 Drag the date range on the axis it is chosen from
The range could be turned on with a finger and not aimed with one. Its two
ends were typed as `YYYY-MM-DD` into 108px fields behind a soft keyboard, to
name days already drawn on the axis a thumb away; and the chip that seeds them
takes its span from the timeline's zoom and pan, which are a wheel and a middle
button. A touch screen has neither, so on Android the filter was a switch with
no aim.

The band is now on the timeline. Two ends with grips, dragged along the bars,
released to filter — the histogram was already how a period is found, and this
makes it how a period is stated. Both ends snap to whole days, which is what
the typed fields mean, what `show_range` reads back out, and a floor under a
range dragged shut. The fields stay for what dragging cannot do: name an exact
day, and say in words what the range is.

For that to work the axis had to stop following the range. Redrawn to the band,
it moved the ground under the very handles doing the narrowing, and there was
nothing outside the range left to widen back into.

While there: a fixed number of equal bins instead of calendar buckets. Between
one calendar unit and the next the bar count is free to wander by a factor of
twelve, so zooming in halved it two steps out of three — the same picture drawn
wider until it jumped back to fine. Equal bins also include the empty ones, so
a bar's position on the track and the date under it are finally the same
quantity; before, a library with gaps drew a February six months wide and the
marker, the band and a click all pointed somewhere else. The count is a
setting, 32 or 64, because the right answer is a question about the screen.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 fbf286d504 Keep the mask when the photograph is closed
A local adjustment survived until the session ended and then did not exist.
Nothing reported it, because nothing had failed.

The sidecar format has carried masks since they were added, `Version::apply`
restores them into the graph, and `Version::update` captures them — that work
landed complete and was never called. The autosave writes `copy_settings()`,
which is a `Preset`: a map from (operation, parameter) to a number. A mask is
not a parameter. It is a rule about *where*, with a chain of its own, so it
fell outside the only thing being written, and the read path had nothing to
read.

The save now carries the stack beside the preset, on both the local and the
remote path. Deliberately not merged but replaced wholesale: this is the stack
as it stands, so a layer the user deleted has to leave the file too. Merging
two devices' stacks is `Sidecar::merge`'s job and belongs to sync (FR-NC-9).

A paste still carries no masks, and the `Option` is how that is said. Settings
travel between photographs; a mask does not, because it is drawn against one
frame and describes nothing on another — and `Scope` cannot express that,
since it filters parameters and a mask is not one.

The test fails against the old save path with "the mask must come back with
the photograph", which is the whole of the defect: not a crash, not an error,
just an edit that was not there in the morning.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 d91f1ec277 Thumbnail the whole library on request, and send the shards up
The grid fetches a preview only for cells that are actually browsed, which is
the right posture over a link that must not be saturated to show one screen
(FR-NC-3). The cost is that the thumbnail store ends up holding the fraction of
the library someone happened to scroll past — and that store is the one derived
thing worth syncing, since a second device that downloads the shards gets a
full grid without touching a single RAW. So the complete set is worth an hour
of range fetches paid once, deliberately, on a machine that can afford it.

That is what this adds: a pass over every visible image with an `oc:fileid`,
launched from the settings page and reported in the activity register like
every other background job. The work list is what the store lacks rather than a
flag in the catalog, so it is resumable by construction and safe to press
twice.

Lane-parallel like the metadata sweep, but it does what that sweep declined to.
The store is `&mut` and cannot cross lanes, which is why dating the library
skips thumbnails entirely; here the lanes fetch, decode and *encode*, and only
the ~20 KB result crosses back to the one thread that owns the store and writes
the chunk. The parallelism is real and the single-writer rule is not bent.

Grid class only. The large class is ~860 MB of shards against ~200 MB on the
reference library, paid by every device that syncs them; a photograph looked at
closely still gets its large thumbnail from the interactive path.

Dates come free — the header a preview needs is the header EXIF lives in — and
the pass ends by pushing the shards to the server. A filled store that never
leaves this device would be most of the cost for none of the point.

The library could be narrowed by rating, flag and availability, but not
by when a photograph was taken — so finding a fortnight meant scrolling
to it and holding position.

The range rides on `RatingFilter` for the reason `local_only` already
does: every query path threads that one struct, so the count in the
header cannot claim a total the grid does not draw. Undated images are
excluded whenever either end is set — they cannot be inside or outside a
span, and drawing them made the range look as though it had not applied.

Taken from the timeline rather than typed into two date fields. Finding
the period is what the histogram is for, and having found it the user
should not have to read the dates off the axis and key them back in.
The histogram keeps drawing the full extent while the range is on, or
there would be nowhere to widen back out from.

The timeline counted the whole library whatever the grid was showing, so
opening a collection left a fortnight in Arosa as one column of a
fifteen-year axis — an axis describing photographs that were not on
screen.

Scope the buckets and the span to the same collection and rating filter
the grid uses. `timeline_range` counts `images` alone and cannot express
the membership join, so the scoped query lives beside the other scoped
readers in the UI and shares their descendants-of-scope rule.

`catalog_span` now delegates to the same scoped reader. Zoom and scrub
measured the full library while the bars were scoped, so a scrub could
land on an instant the collection did not contain and send the view
somewhere the user had not asked to go.

The write path learned to say which file the server refused; the drain path —
the one that runs for work queued while offline — still reported only a count.
That is the path that matters most, because everything it carries was made
with no connection and exists on one device.

With it named, the failure on the tablet is:

on a credential that pushes the catalog to the same library root in the same
pass. So this is not the account and not the app password: one path is
writable and another is not, which points at the server — a read-only share
over that folder, or a file access control rule on the extension — rather than
at anything this side can retry its way out of.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 6a7ed37aed Say which sidecar the server refused, and where
A queued sidecar failing to upload was reported as a count and a reason —
"1 queued sidecar(s) still undelivered: permission denied" — with the path
only at debug level, which the app filters out by default.

That is unsynced user work: a rating or an edit that exists on one device and
nowhere else. Which photograph it belongs to, and which path the server
refused, is the whole of what makes the failure actionable, and without it a
403 on a single file reads the same as a whole library failing to sync.

Observed on the tablet, where writes to the derived folder succeed on the same
credential — the catalog pushes fine — while one sidecar beside its image is
refused. That combination says the path matters and the account does not, so
the path is the thing worth printing.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 c9c5c43aa1 Carry the library across when its home moves
The previous commit moved durable data out of Android's cache directory, and
on its own that would have been an upgrade that quietly discarded work. The
app looks in the new location, finds nothing, and rescans a library of tens of
thousands of images over the network — while the old copy, including every
offline rating and edit that had not yet synced, sits in a directory the
system is free to delete.

So the account's directory is moved once at startup, before anything opens a
store. A rename rather than a copy: both are inside the app's own data on one
filesystem, so it is atomic and cannot half-finish. An existing destination
wins and the move is skipped — that covers a second run and a fresh install,
and in neither case may this overwrite live data.

A failed move is logged, not fatal. The cost is a rescan, which is
recoverable; refusing to start is not.

Two tests, against ordinary directories rather than the platform's idea of a
cache: one puts an unsynced sidecar in the old location and asserts it is
readable in the new one afterwards, the other pins that live data is never
overwritten.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 b8e9793908 Keep offline work out of a directory Android empties
The catalog, the sidecar cache and the export outbox were all landing in the
app's cache directory on Android, where the system deletes them without asking
under storage pressure.

`catalog_path` derived its base from `XDG_DATA_HOME` or `HOME`, and neither is
set on Android, so it fell through to `temp_dir()` — which resolves there to
`/data/user/0/<pkg>/cache`. Confirmed on the tablet: the app logs its catalog
under `cache/darkroom/...`.

What sits beside that catalog is not disposable. `sidecars/` is the commit
point for every rating and edit made with no connection — the whole mechanism
that makes offline culling safe — and `outbox/` holds exports the user has
already been told succeeded. A day of sorting on a train, evicted by an OS
housekeeping pass before it ever reached the server, is the worst failure this
application can have, and it would leave no error and no trace.

The fallback is now `SessionStore::data_dir()`, the persistent per-app
directory the Android entry point establishes before any store opens — the
same one credentials and sessions already use. Desktop is untouched: the XDG
data location is still preferred, so nobody's catalog moves.

Two tests. One asserts no durable path contains `/cache/` or `/tmp/`; the
other pins the outbox to the catalog's parent, because three call sites derive
their location that way and a change here moves all of them at once.

Found while verifying that offline browsing works on the tablet with wifi
disabled — which it does: the app cold-starts with no network, reports the
scan failure without crashing, and serves its grid from the local store.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 40d4e439a9 Drop the parameter the offline sidecar writer never used
`write_one_sidecar` took an `Option<&NextcloudBackend>` it ignored. It was a
leftover from the shape the write path had before online and offline separated
into two functions: the offline one records to the cache and queues, and has no
server to talk to by definition. A parameter that is always `None` and always
unused says the opposite — that there is a case where it is `Some` — and the
next reader has to check.

The closure it was threaded through is renamed to say what it does rather than
how it is called. `run(None)` needed the reader to know what `None` meant;
`queue_all()` is the sentence.

Also regenerates the traceability matrix, which now records FR-CAT-9's queue.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 cb1d2be240 Choose the export folder by walking the server, not by typing it
The destination for a Nextcloud export was a text field. Nobody recalls the
exact spelling of a path three levels down, and getting it wrong does not
fail — `create_dir` makes whatever was typed, so a misremembered folder
becomes a new one at the root and the exports are somewhere nobody looks.

So it is picked the way the library root is picked, using the same
`FolderBrowser` model the launch screen drives: up, into, and "use this
folder", confirming the folder currently *shown* rather than one selected in
the list. Same rule in both places, so the phrase means one thing.

The model is shared; the worker is not. `settings_ui::spawn_folder_list` is a
near-twin of the launch screen's, because that one reaches into the
`LaunchController` for its session and reports onto the launch screen's error
line, while this one is handed credentials and writes to the settings page.
Factoring them together needs a function taking both controllers or a trait
implemented twice to abstract two call sites — more machinery than the twenty
lines it saves. What matters is shared already: navigation behaves identically
because both drive the same model.

The callbacks are wired in `lib.rs` rather than in `settings_ui::wire`,
because listing a remote folder needs credentials and the settings page holds
no session on purpose — it is reachable before a library is opened and must
not depend on one existing. With no account the picker says to sign in first,
rather than showing an empty list that reads as a server with no folders.

Details that are decisions rather than accidents: the picker opens at the
library root rather than at whatever half-typed path is in the field, which
would list nothing and look broken. The listing area is a fixed 180px, since a
folder with sixty children would otherwise push the rest of the settings page
off the bottom. "Up" is disabled at the root rather than hidden, so the row
does not jump as the user navigates. A failed listing leaves the picker open
on the folder it was showing — where the user had got to is not something to
discard over a dropped request. And the chosen folder saves immediately like
every other setting on a page that has no Save button.

The poll timer lives on the controller for the reason `LaunchController` keeps
its own there: a `slint::Timer` stops when dropped, so one local to the
function that starts it would be collected before the listing arrived.

Carries in-flight work from a parallel session — a segmentation pass in
dr-gpu, a sidecar cache, and the develop panel's continuing changes.

1020 tests pass, fmt clean. One clippy warning remains and is not mine:
`sidecar_cache::dir` is unused while that work is in progress.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 e00c99b864 Let a photograph leave: an export button, and a cache to leave from
dr-export could turn a frame into bytes and nothing could ask it to. This is
the button, and the place the bytes go.

**Everything is staged first.** An export bound for the server is written to a
local outbox and uploaded afterwards; offline is not a special case, it is the
same path with a drain that finds the server absent. Doing it the other way —
upload directly, stage only on failure — makes the failure path the one that
is rarely exercised and always broken, and a network drop mid-batch leaves
some exports existing and some not with nothing recording which. Staged first,
an export is finished the moment it is written and the upload is a promise
kept later.

The outbox sits beside the catalog rather than under the cache. dr_catalog's
cache already draws that line: passive entries are a convenience and go under
LRU, pinned ones are a promise and never do. An export awaiting upload is a
promise — the user was told it succeeded — and sweeping it for disk would
destroy the only copy. Bytes are written before the destination record, so a
kill between the two leaves an orphan the drain ignores rather than a record
pointing at nothing.

The status line says "Queued for Exports/2026", never "Exported to Nextcloud",
until it has actually landed. There is a test asserting that wording, because
the tempting shorter sentence is a claim the app cannot keep.

The drain runs on the sync pass, before the shards: a thumbnail shard can be
rebuilt from the originals and the catalog is an index, but a queued export
exists nowhere else.

`DevelopSession::render_for_export` renders the framed size rather than reusing
the frame on screen, which is deliberately viewport-sized (FR-DSP-1) — encoding
that would hand the user a soft, screen-sized file with nothing to say anything
had been lost (FR-EXP-9).

One compromise, recorded rather than hidden: the export runs synchronously on
the UI thread, so the window is unresponsive for the few hundred milliseconds
a full-resolution render and encode takes. Moving a DevelopSession and its GPU
pass to a worker is a larger change than one button earns, and it is batch
export that makes the wait intolerable rather than merely noticeable.

Still missing: the Nextcloud folder *picker*. The destination is typed into
Settings for now. `FolderBrowser` in launch.rs is already the reusable model
for it — it browses a remote tree and nothing about it is specific to choosing
a library root — but wiring it into the settings page needs a listing worker
and browser UI there, which is its own piece of work.

Carries in-flight work from a parallel session — presets, the develop copy and
paste, and the node schema's `presentation` and `enum` support. One misplaced
callback in settings_ui.rs is moved from `render` to `wire`: registered in
`render` it borrowed a `&SettingsController` into a 'static closure and would
not compile, and that file's own docs say render pushes properties while wire
connects callbacks.

992 tests pass, clippy and fmt clean. Traceability 48.3% -> 51.0%.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 489465faf0 Show the photograph the way it was taken
Nothing read EXIF orientation, so every frame from a body held sideways
lay on its side — in the grid, in develop, and in the read-only preview.

The tag is honoured as part of *reading the file*, at the same standing
as a RAW's masked-photosite crop, never as an edit. It lives as a
baseline on Framing rather than as a starting value for quarter_turns,
which is what keeps four things true: a sideways file opens unmodified,
reset returns it to upright rather than to the sensor's scan order, its
sidecar stays empty, and the rotate button still moves the image 90°
whatever the file underneath it says.

Framing::effective composes the baseline with the user's own turns
through the group law rather than by adding turns and OR-ing flags. The
naive version gets one case wrong — an odd baseline turn plus a user
mirror — and gets it wrong quietly, because the result is still a
plausible orientation. The composition collapses to a single
permutation, so obeying the tag costs nothing per pixel.

dr_decode::orientation is a header-only IFD walk, separate from
metadata() for the reason the entry points are separate at all: the grid
asks once per cell and must not build a rawler decoder to get one tag.
CR3 and RAF fall back to the full read, being neither TIFF nor JPEG.

Written down as FR-DEV-3h.

Known gap: thumbnails cached before this stay sideways. The store is
keyed by file and size, and its shards sync — invalidating them would
have every client re-download 25 MB a shard, which is not this commit's
call to make.

The Android job's "Verify minimum API level" step has never verified the
minimum API level. It took the first `*.so` anywhere under the target
directory, which is a host proc-macro from debug/deps — an x86-64 object
built by the runner's gcc, whose .comment section cannot mention Android
and so can never contradict the expected value. It now reads the artifact
under the target triple, compares against MIN_API parsed from the
Dockerfile rather than a second copy of the number, and fails on a
mismatch. Both sides are checked non-empty first: two failed parses would
otherwise compare equal and pass, which is the same silent success in a
new costume.

The Android image installs one SDK package per layer and keeps the
output. sdkmanager is a JVM program that aborts when it cannot get memory,
and the single `> /dev/null` step reported that as a bare "exit code 134"
while a retry re-downloaded everything that had already succeeded.

tools/ci-local.sh runs all four jobs — desktop, android, layering,
traceability — against the host toolchain, which is pinned to the same
1.92.0 CI installs. Its matrix check compares regeneration against the
working tree rather than against HEAD: CI starts from a clean checkout, so
git's answer is the right one there and reports every local run stale here.

The rest is rustfmt across the workspace, and the clippy findings that
surfaced once it did: manual_contains in dr-thumbs and collections_ui, a
map iterated as pairs for its keys, an index loop over a slice, and two
runtime assertions on a constant now made at compile time.

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 cd75e5a4c6 Run the library from local data when the server is unreachable
Also carries in-flight work that shared these files: the zoom structure-key
fix in the adjust pipeline, nearest-neighbour filtering past 1:1, the
timeline scrub marker correction, the 423-Locked retry in the metadata
sweep, and the thumbnail size-class migration.

# Offline mode (FR-CAT-9)

The app previously assumed the server was reachable and treated its absence
as a series of unrelated per-operation failures. A launch without a
connection produced an empty grid, even with a complete catalog on disk and
every thumbnail already in the shards.

Reachability is now inferred from traffic the app was already making, rather
than probed for. `RemoteError::indicates_offline` draws the line that makes
this possible: a dead connection is offline, a 403 or a 500 is not — the
server answered, so blanking the library over one forbidden file would be a
worse error than the one being reported. `Reachability` turns those outcomes
into a state, so a library browsing happily never issues a probe at all.

Going offline takes one failure, because the user is already experiencing it.
Coming back requires evidence — a completed scan or a fetched thumbnail —
with a capped exponential backoff behind the manual retry, so twelve sweep
lanes failing together do not schedule twelve immediate probes.

What keeps working: the catalog opens even when the scan that normally
provides it failed, so the grid fills from the last successful scan.
Thumbnails come from the shards. Rating, flagging and collecting are catalog
writes that never touched the network. What stops is opening an original that
was never stored locally, and it now says so in those words instead of
reporting "network error: connection refused" over a photograph.

Work that is pure network is refused rather than left to fail slowly: the
metadata sweep, derived sync, and sidecar writes. The sweep would otherwise
spend a timeout per image across the whole library while the progress bar
implied something was happening. Deferring sidecars is a real gap rather than
a hidden one — a rating made offline reaches its sidecar only when that image
is judged again while connected — and it is recorded as such at the call site.

# The "On this device" filter

A chip beside the rating filters, narrowing the grid to images whose original
is held locally. It composes with the rating terms rather than replacing them,
so "five-star frames I can actually edit on this train" is one filter. The
predicate is SQL, like the rating terms and for the same reason: the count in
the header has to agree with the cells drawn.

It reads `image_cache.tier_actual`, which nothing writes yet — the next
commit fills it. Until then the chip honestly reports zero.

`Tier` gains an explicit on-disk encoding. The variants are ordered by
generosity and the derived `Ord` invites reordering them, which would
silently reinterpret every cached row; the round-trip test is what holds the
two in agreement.

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 8ad5c86ff9 Add the library, collections, and trash views; theme from style.yaml
The UI gains the views the catalog work was building toward: a windowed
library grid with ratings and flags, the collection tree with drag-to-add,
and trash with restore. derived_sync pushes thumbnail shards and the catalog
snapshot to the server's derived folder.

Tokens now have one source of truth. build.rs reads style.yaml and generates
theme.slint into OUT_DIR, which answers every existing
`import { Theme } from "theme.slint"` unchanged, because Slint resolves
imports against the importing file's directory first and the include paths
after. Generating into OUT_DIR rather than beside the hand-written Slint is
the point: a generated file sitting in ui/ looks exactly like the files
around it that are meant to be edited, and an edit to it would survive until
the next touch of style.yaml — a bug that hides for weeks. build.rs fails
loudly if a stale ui/theme.slint exists, which would otherwise shadow the
generated one silently and make every palette change vanish with no error.

The palette moves to near-neutral dark with achromatic signalling, so the
accent means "modified" or "active" rather than "heading". Shared components
land in widgets.slint: a token that binds several values into one concept is
a component, not a row in a YAML file.

Adds an optional live-style feature that makes the tokens in-out so they can
be written at startup — a feature rather than the default because it stops
the properties being constant-folded.

serde_norway is the YAML crate: serde_yaml and serde_yml are both deprecated,
and its mappings preserve insertion order, which is what lets the generated
Slint keep the token ordering the author chose.
