The generated shader ended with `encode_srgb` and a clamp, so every photograph leaving DarkRoom had been through sRGB's gamut whatever the settings page said. Export refused the other three spaces rather than tag clipped pixels with a gamut they did not contain — correct, and not something an encoder could fix. So the output space becomes a parameter of composition. `compose_for` emits a constant primaries matrix after the camera matrix and before the clip, and generates the transfer function to match: the sRGB curve for sRGB and Display P3, a pure 2.199 gamma for Adobe RGB, 1.8 with a linear toe for ProPhoto. The ordering the camera matrix depends on is untouched — operations still run in camera space — and sRGB emits no conversion at all, so the shader compiled on nearly every frame is byte-for-byte what it was. The numbers live in dr-types, derived from four chromaticity pairs per space rather than tabulated. That is not tidiness: the shader encodes the pixels and the ICC profile describes them, and a file whose profile disagrees with its own contents is worse than one with no profile. One derivation makes them agree by construction, and can be checked against the values the specifications publish. Profiles are generated here too — minimal v2 matrix/TRC, about 2 KB, pure Rust, no lcms to satisfy under the NDK. A JPEG carries it in APP2, a PNG in iCCP, a TIFF in tag 34675. sRGB gets one as well, because untagged does not mean sRGB, it means guess. The refusal survives in a sharper form. A `Frame` now carries the space it was rendered in, and export refuses to label it anything else. The develop session still composes for sRGB, so a P3 export from the interface fails with an accurate error instead of producing a file that lies — the frontend half is a separate change.

DarkRoom
A cross-platform, non-destructive RAW photo editor for Linux and Android.
Status: early. v0.1 is a remote library viewer — see docs/milestone-v0.1.md.

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.
