- automation / cli autosave restart tests: the MCP instructions embed the
auto-save state as JSON, so a Windows path's backslashes are escaped there;
look for the JSON form of the path.
- ui_gpu: egui_kittest prefers a CPU adapter, which on Windows is WARP on
DirectX 12, where FXC fails to compile the compositor's `pointwise` kernel
("compilation aborted unexpectedly"), so the viewer stayed on the CPU and
the test failed before comparing anything. Build the harness on the adapter
the headless compositor picked (falling back to egui_kittest's choice).
- ui_audio_scrub (#103 test): with a fixed 2 s comp, a machine with many
render threads cached the whole preview before the first step, so the sound
rightly started at once and no silent frame was counted (3 of 24 runs
failed with 8 copies in parallel). Size the comp to four times the frames
playback requests per step, so caching takes at least four steps (0 of 24).

Reload Footage (Cmd+Alt+L) updated an item's metadata but left the media
pool's decoded frames and the layer cache in place, so the old image kept
rendering until Edit > Purge. It also replaced the footage with a probe of
the merged document, so a Photoshop layer item lost its layer and its
Retain Layer Sizes bounds.
Reload now re-reads only what the file decides (size, a movie's duration,
streams and frame rate, codec, a data file's text), keeps the layer or
page and the interpretation, finds a Photoshop layer again by name, and
makes the media layer forget the file (FootageSource::forget, which also
drops the EXR aux-channel cache) and clears the layer cache.
Settings > Import > Reload Footage Changed on Disk (on by default): the
desktop app stamps footage files (size + modification time) on a worker
thread every two seconds and when the window comes back to the front, and
reloads what changed. Not an undo step and it doesn't modify the project;
a file still being written is retried on the next check.
footage.reloadChanged runs one check (CLI, MCP, agents).

Every pointer move replaces the comp's content identity, so the frame on
screen takes a new cache key at every step while its render is still in
flight; the viewer only ever showed an exact key, so the picture froze on
the last completed frame until the drag ended. While a drag or a property
scrub is running, show the newest frame of the same comp, frame, scale,
view and render options that is ready — a render behind, as After Effects
does — and go back to exact frames when it stops.
macOS's /var is a symlink to /private/var: the CLI resolves its working
directory through current_dir(), which is canonical, so the recorded
output path was /private/var/... while the test expected /var/....
Canonicalise the test's temp directory so the comparison holds on macOS.
The drag preview was a 1 px axis-aligned rectangle for every shape tool,
which read as no preview at all against most comps. Draw the tool's own
path instead (rectangle, rounded rectangle, ellipse, polygon, star), from
the engine's own geometry, filled with the Tools bar's Fill and outlined
in its Stroke, with a caption saying where the shape lands — a mask on
the selected layer, into the selected shape layer, or a new shape layer.
The ghost and the released shape go through one normalisation, so the
drag shows exactly what it commits: Alt (Option) draws from the press
point and Shift squares the box, both live. The drag also starts at the
press point now, not where the 6 px drag threshold was crossed, so the
shape is drawn from where the button went down, as in After Effects.
GIFs went through the still-image path, so an animated GIF came in as a
single frame with zero duration. A GIF with two or more frames is now
probed as a movie: its frame rate is chosen so every per-frame delay is
a whole number of frames (uneven timing is kept exactly), delays of 0
or 1 hundredths count as 10 like in browsers, and the pool decodes the
frame shown at the requested time. A single-frame GIF stays a still.

file.uninstallScript and script_code joined the name from the request into
Scripts/<name> and handed it to the settings store, so "../.." reached files
outside the settings folder (uninstall deleted them; run-by-name ran them).
Accept only bare file names (and, on Windows, none of its reserved names),
require a .jsx/.js name, and skip refused names in the script list.
