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 353382c07f Hand the photographer's place between devices
A place recorded on the tablet should be where the desktop opens.

Exchanged through `.darkroom-derived/place.json`, beside the thumbnail
shards and the catalog snapshot. Newest timestamp wins outright: unlike
the catalog this is replaced rather than merged, because two devices
cannot both be where the photographer is and so there is nothing of
theirs inside ours to preserve.

It still refuses to upload over a copy it could not read, for a smaller
version of the reason `sync_catalog` does: a record we have not compared
against may be the newer one, and overwriting it would move the other
device's photographer without ever having seen where they were.

Last in the pass, and its failures are logged rather than reported.
Everything else in that folder is *derived* -- a faster way to learn what
the device could work out for itself -- so losing it costs time. A place
is a fact only the other device knew, and losing it costs a scroll. A
sync that ran out of connectivity should spend what it had on the shards.

The full pass runs after a thumbnail sweep or when Sync is pressed,
neither of which happens on an ordinary launch -- so a handover would
arrive one launch late, which is one too many for a feature whose whole
claim is picking up where you stopped. `spawn_place_fetch` is the small
half: one GET of a few hundred bytes, started beside the scan.

And it can still be refused. A handover is welcome on the way in and
unwelcome once the photographer has started: a grid that jumped
elsewhere mid-scroll because a round trip finally landed would have lost
their place to the feature meant to keep it. Any scroll, scrub, scope
change, filter or opened photograph closes the latch, and a record
arriving after that is written to disk and takes effect next launch.

The catalog clobber existed because `if let Ok(bytes)` had a failure arm
that was never exercised. Fixing it without covering that arm leaves the
next person free to collapse it back.

Three tests against a backend whose read fails in a chosen way, counting
writes — because what went wrong was not a wrong value but a write that
should not have happened at all:

- a dehydrated snapshot uploads nothing
- an unreadable one uploads nothing either, since "refused" is no more
  "absent" than "not downloaded" is
- and a genuine first sync still uploads, which is the half that keeps
  `NotFound` distinct from `NotMaterialised` rather than merely cautious

Checked against the original shape: the first two fail on it and the
third passes. A guard test that cannot tell the bug from the fix is
decoration.

`async-trait` joins dev-dependencies to stand the double up behind
`dyn RemoteBackend`.

dtourolle 4168d67cfa Do not push a catalog over one we could not read
`sync_catalog` is a read-modify-write over a file another device also
writes: take theirs, merge, push the union. It was shaped

    if let Ok(bytes) = backend.get(&RemoteId::Path(target), None).await {

which folds *every* failure into "there is no remote catalog" and carries
straight on to the upload. On a placeholder library the snapshot in
`.darkroom-derived/` is dehydrated like anything else, so the read failed
every time and each sync pushed our catalog over theirs unmerged —
taking the other device's collections and their members with it.

The same shape as the sidecar bug, and the same fix: a read that fails
for anything other than `NotFound` stops the upload and says why. An
unreadable or unopenable snapshot stops it too — "will not parse" is not
"is not there". This is what `NotFound` and `NotMaterialised` being
separate errors is *for*: one means ours is the whole truth, the other
means do not dare.

Shard downloads go through the same fetch-on-demand read. They logged
and skipped before, which on a library the client keeps dehydrated is
every shard, every pass, and a peer's thumbnails and faces silently
never arriving.

And `put` over a placeholder now replaces it rather than refusing.
Refusing was over-cautious of me: derived state lives inside the library
folder, so a folder the client had dehydrated could never be written to
again. An unconditional write replaces the whole file, so there is
nothing in the stub to keep — content first, then the placeholder, since
in a synced tree an absence is a deletion that propagates. `IfMatch`
still refuses, because a stub's validator describes the stub; `IfAbsent`
fails, because the file is there and only its content is not.

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.

The tablet showed 442 of a person's 648 faces and could never catch up. Its
shard ledger said why: it had adopted the laptop's shard 0 at 2,711,552 bytes,
and that shard is 20,402,176 bytes on disk.

The upload skipped it. A sealed shard the server already had under that name was
taken to be "byte-identical by construction", so its mere presence was proof
enough and the size was never consulted. That premise is false, and this library
is the counter-example: an *open* shard is uploaded on every pass as it fills —
that is how a growing shard reaches the other devices — so the server ordinarily
holds a partial copy of a shard that is later completed and sealed. Sealing then
froze that partial copy in place for ever.

Nothing downstream could recover from it. The tablet's `has_adopted` check is
keyed on name *and* size and would have re-downloaded a changed shard gladly; it
was never offered one, because the sending side had stopped looking.

So the comparison is on size, sealed or not. The client id is in the name, so
nobody else can have written the file and size is a sound test. A sealed shard
whose size already matches is still skipped on the first comparison, which is
all the original cheapness was worth.

The thumbnail upload had the identical test and the identical hole, and is fixed
with it.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 d70fe9da8d Decide whether to send a shard before reading it
The upload read every shard off disk and only then asked whether it needed
sending. For a library with 94 MB of face shards already on the server, every
idle sync read 94 MB to conclude it had nothing to do.

The question does not need the bytes. A sealed shard the server already has is
byte-identical by construction, and the client id is in the name, so nobody else
could have written it — the name settles it. The open shard is compared on size,
which `stat` answers.

The progress line moves after the skip for the same reason: announced before it,
an idle pass claimed to be sending five shards and sent none.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 a1e8f494b9 Say what the face sync is doing while it does it
The face pass set the status to "checking faces…" once and then said nothing
until it was finished. On a library whose first export after a re-index is 9,849
photographs and 85 MB of shards, that is eight minutes of a progress bar sitting
still — which is indistinguishable from a hang, and was reported as one twice.

Nothing was wrong with the sync. The only fault was that it was silent.

Three places now report, which are the three that take real time:

- **Preparing**, per image with a count, since this is the long one and the only
  one whose length the user cannot guess from anything on screen.
- **Sending**, per shard with its size, because a face shard carries crops and
  runs to tens of megabytes — one of them is a visible wait on any connection.
  Announced before the upload rather than after, since the wait *is* the upload.
- **Taking in** a peer's shard, which is a download and then a row-by-row merge.

The export reports every 25 images rather than every one, so the channel behind
it stays lost in the write it accompanies. `export_to_shards` keeps its old
signature and delegates, so the callers that do not want progress do not grow a
parameter for it.

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 96d07da15f Sync face data as sealed shards, so a second device does not re-index
Indexing 23,500 images is about two hours of CPU, and the result is
byte-identical on every device: the same model over the same proxy
produces the same embedding. Paying for it once per account rather than
once per device is the point.

Shards rather than the catalog snapshot, because the snapshot goes up
whole on every sync and a fully indexed library carries roughly 30 MB of
embeddings. That is exactly the cost the thumbnail store's 25 MB cap
exists to bound, so face shards use the same cap -- imported from
dr_thumbs rather than restated, since the number is a statement about
sync cost and the two must not drift apart.

The split follows the one already there: bulk immutable data in sealed
shards, small mutable data in the catalog snapshot. Faces, landmarks,
embeddings and run markers shard; people, names and assignments ride the
catalog and merge by uuid.

Keyed on oc:fileid throughout, never on image_id, because a row id means
nothing on another device.

The run marker travels with the faces it describes. Without it a
receiving device cannot tell an image with no faces from one never
examined, and would re-detect every landscape it had just adopted.

dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 11a63fc7a8 Refresh the collection tree when a sync brings membership
New-York gained 127 photographs from the tablet and the sidebar went on showing
no number beside it.

Two reasons, and the second is why the first was never noticed. The sync's
completion handler reloads the grid and never rebuilds the tree — the scan
already does, and the sync merges the same tables. And the condition it reloads
under was `collections_gained > 0`, which counts collections, not members: a
sync that files 127 photographs into a collection both devices already had
gains no collection at all, so the count was zero and nothing refreshed.

`SyncReport` now carries `members_gained` from the merge report, and either one
rebuilds the tree.

Shard ids are per store: every client fills its own numbering from 0, so
"shard 3" names different thumbnails on every device. The derived sync
published them into a flat shard-NNNN.sqlite namespace anyway, which left
two clients writing one name.

Both failures that follow were live. On upload, a client's open shard
overwrote a peer's file of the same id — content the peer still believed
was published and would never restore, because its own copy was sealed and
the name existed. On download, the loop skipped any remote id it already
held locally, which is the only safe reading of a name that says nothing
about who wrote it, so a client holding shards 0..5 never fetched the
peer's 0..5 at all. Between them, two populated clients exchanged almost
nothing: only shards numbered above the other's highest. A fresh device
worked, having no local shards to collide with, which is why this went
unnoticed — it is exactly the case the feature was written for.

The name is now shard-<client>-NNNN.sqlite. The client id is minted per
store in index.sqlite, beside the numbering it qualifies rather than in
settings: a store deleted and rebuilt restarts at shard 0 and must not
claim the remote names its predecessor wrote. Since our own ids now say
nothing about what we have taken from others, index.sqlite also keeps a
ledger of adopted remote names and the size each had when merged. A size
rather than a flag, because a peer's sealed shard never returns but its
open one grows, and re-merging the grown copy is how the thumbnails it
gained since arrive.

Flat names already on servers still parse, reporting no owner, so each
client adopts them once, and nothing is written under that form again. One
whose id and byte size match a local shard is that client's own earlier
upload by the same identity argument the upload path already makes for
sealed shards, so the rename does not cost every client a re-download of
its whole store. Older builds ignore the new names and stop receiving
shards until updated; their own uploads are still adopted, so nothing is
lost.

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.

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.
