Every background job reported into a window property of its own — library-thumbs-done, library-pin-total, library-syncing — which only the grid ever read. A pin download that outlived the view it was started from drew nothing at all once the user opened an image, and there was no answer anywhere to "what is this busy with", because the answer was spread across eight properties nothing collected. They report to one register now (ui/dr-ui/src/activity.rs). It publishes an aggregate, which draws a three-pixel bar across the top of the shell in every view, and a row per job, which the settings page lists: scans, thumbnail batches, pin and open downloads, sidecar uploads, the sync and the trash. Failures stay on the list until they are cleared; routine successes do not, or a scroll would bury them. The handle removes a still-running job when it drops, so a worker that dies mid-transfer takes its row with it rather than leaving the bar sweeping for the rest of the session. Also carries in-flight work from a parallel session — the drawn icon set and the dr-pipeline ops split. dr-pipeline's build script does not compile at this commit; ui/dr-ui does, with clippy clean and its tests passing.

Building
Desktop:
cargo run -p darkroom-desktop
Android (containerised toolchain, see docker/android):
./docker/android/build.sh cargo ndk -t arm64-v8a build --release
Current state
Working: workspace, GPU context and compute pass, adaptive Slint shell, Android cross-compilation of the core crates.
Not yet working: the zero-copy display path. The build currently uploads frames through the CPU, which is exactly what ARCH §6.1 forbids — measured at 96% of frame time at 4K. Replacing it is spike S1, the project's highest priority.
cargo run -p dr-gpu --example bench --features readback
reproduces that measurement.
