Two things, and the second is why the first matters more than expected. Mask layers gain a feather, a falloff curve and a morphology, all defined against a signed distance from the boundary rather than as separate features — one exact distance field answers "how soft" and "how far" at once, so dilation is a threshold at -r, erosion one at +r, and closing and opening are one of each in sequence. The compound pair costs a second distance field, which is why they are named rather than presented as a radius that happens to be signed. Types, defaults and sidecar round-trip only; the field itself is next. `edge-feather` and `edge-falloff`, not `feather` and `falloff`, because a radial mask already writes `feather` for the fraction of its radius it ramps over. Same word, different quantity, different units — sharing the key would have made an existing file ambiguous. The diagnostic that provoked this is committed as an ignored test, because "does the ladder land on things a person means" is the question S15 exists to answer and it should not depend on whoever still has the script. On bus.jpg it answers badly: 35,075 regions at blur 2 over an 810x1080 frame, and cutting that to 400 gives *one* region covering nearly the whole picture plus 399 noise specks. Not over-segmentation — collapse. Almost every saddle is near zero, so the merge order joins everything meaningful before it joins anything spurious, and a global cut spends its entire budget on grain. So the granularity ladder does not currently work on a photograph, and the region masks built on it inherit that. Recorded rather than worked around: the next commits move local masking onto the model's instances, where the edge treatment above is what makes a quarter-resolution mask usable.
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.
