RenderRequest gains a sample format (OutputDepth: U8 for previews, U16, F32Linear); deep renders
run the per-pixel stage with the exact sRGB curve and return Rendered::deep alongside the 8-bit
image (GPU stays 8-bit: deep exports render on the CPU). Export encodes deep renders: 16-bit PNG and
TIFF, 32-bit float linear TIFF with a linear ICC profile we generate, 10-bit AVIF (YCbCr planes into
ravif). Output sharpening and watermarks work on deep images. ExportOptions.bitDepth with per-format
defaults (TIFF 16-bit, others 8-bit), export dialog bit depth choice (remembered with the last
export), MCP export schema. Tests: a smooth gradient has 1024 levels in a 16-bit TIFF vs 13 in
8-bit, float TIFF decodes to the same light as 16-bit, per-format depth rules, AVIF 10-bit.

Settings (Cmd+, / app menu on macOS, Edit elsewhere) with General, Import,
Performance and Interface tabs. App settings (startup view, delete
confirmation, GPU, preview size, filmstrip/grid badges, last library) live in
UiState.settings (ui.json); library settings (raw / non-raw / per-camera
import presets, XMP, thumbnail cache size) go through library.preferences into
prefs.json. Import applies the matching default preset; the photo remembers it
as its import look (unedited; Reset returns to it). Open Library… switches
libraries at runtime.
View modes: F full-screen preview (photo on black, arrows step, I cycles the
info overlay, Esc exits), Cmd+Shift+F window full screen, Cmd+I cycles the
loupe info overlay (off / file + date / exposure), Navigator mini map while
zoomed (click/drag pans).

RenderRequest gains an output space (default sRGB; previews stay sRGB). The per-pixel stage converts
scene-linear Rec.2020 to the target primaries, gamut-maps into the target gamut and encodes with the
target curve, on CPU and GPU (WGSL finish kernel reads the matrix, luma weights and curve from its
parameter block). sRGB output is byte-identical to before on the CPU. Export embeds our own
generated ICC profile for the space; AVIF stays sRGB. ExportOptions.colorSpace, export dialog and
MCP export schema. Tests: P3 colour survives a P3 export (decoded through the embedded profile),
every space/format round-trips its profile, GPU equivalence per space.

- memory::budget (default min(25% RAM, 1.5 GiB); LIGHTCRAFT_MEMORY_MB, app.memoryBudget):
half for engine caches (sources + rendered previews, LRU across them via a global
use tick; the photo on screen stays), a quarter for decodes in flight (WorkGate:
thumbnails, prefetch and import probes wait; loupe/export loads never wait), an
eighth for the GPU free pool.
- GPU: best-fit buffer reuse (<= 25% slack), buffers released outside a render are
pooled at once (no stranded retired lists), pool trimmed after 3 s idle.
- Decodes drop file bytes and raw samples early, colour/crop/orient in place.
- macOS: apps install malloc_zone_pressure_relief as the release hook (after each
decode, import and idle trim): freed large blocks no longer stay resident.
14 raws + loupe + 12 steps (M4 Pro): peak RSS 1.9-2.3 GB -> 0.83-0.99 GB, footprint
2.5-2.6 GB -> 0.91-0.96 GB, heap peak 930 -> 656 MB; stepping median ~13 ms.

Fix-ups: diagnostic overlays never populate the view-preview cache; Photo Merge's RenderRequest gets
the new overlay field.

Photo Merge's Create Stack option now puts the merged DNG on top of a
collapsed stack of its sources (Catalog::stack_with_ops), so the grid
shows the result; test in tests_merge (and no stack without the option).
Photo Merge dialogs live in a Photo > Photo Merge submenu.

Also: GPU retired-buffer list leaks its buffers at thread exit instead of
dropping them (wgpu's thread-locals may already be gone; the drop aborted
the test process intermittently), and headless UI tests wait up to 120 s
for renders (they timed out on a loaded machine).

Filter bar above the grid (View > Filter Bar, ⇧F, or the top-bar filter
icon): rating with ≥ / = / ≤, picked / rejected / unflagged, colour labels,
kind, edited/unedited, camera / lens / keyword pickers, Clear and "Save as
Smart Album…" — every control drives library.filter. Two rows when the
grid is narrow. Empty grid under a filter says so. Headless test clicks
the bar's widgets and saves a smart album.
docs/parity.md: rows for smart albums, stacks, virtual copies, compare,
survey, filter bar, menu bar updated; finished top gaps removed.

Resolved: album.create (main's one-liner + smart: None), menus (panels in
the Window menu, main's dialog.newFolder ⇧⌘N, app.showInFinder and
app.exportPrevious placed in the menu layout), shortcuts (native-menu skip
+ main's aliases and UI-over-engine rule; Shift+X/Shift+U aliases go
through the culling path; my Shift+P/X/U flag-and-advance dropped in
favour of the aliases). X and Delete stay egui-handled (contextual keys).

menubar.rs builds File/Edit/View/Photo/Window/Help from engine + UI
commands (layout table for order and separators, parameterized submenus
for rating, flag, label, sort, add to album), with live labels ("Undo
Exposure"), enabled and checked state; ui.menu.tree exposes it. The
desktop app installs it natively on macOS with muda (pure Rust over
AppKit; no GTK — muda is a macOS-only dependency): app menu (About,
Services, Hide, Quit), Window menu (Minimize/Zoom/Bring All to Front),
Help menu; per-frame state sync; accelerators without Cmd and the text
editing ones step aside while a text field has focus; natively handled
shortcuts are skipped by the egui handler. Other hosts (web, Windows,
Linux) get the same menus in the top bar. Panels/sections/tools move to
the Window menu. Verified with System Events: menus listed with live
enabled state, View > Survey dispatches.

curve.refineSaturation (0..100, default 100 = the curve's own saturation): after the tone
curves, the chroma around luma is rescaled so saturation moves from the curve's towards the
pre-curve value, keeping the curve's tone. CPU (finish::refine_saturation) and GPU twin,
equivalence case, slider under the curve editor, crs:CurveRefineSaturation import.

White-preserving primaries matrix (OkLCh hue rotation / chroma scale of each Rec.2020
primary) plus a luminance-preserving green/magenta shadows tint, applied in scene-linear
light before the tone map. CPU (colorops::calibrate) and GPU (finish.wgsl) with an
equivalence case; seven control specs (calibration.*), a settings group, crs: import
(ShadowTint, Red/Green/BlueHue/Saturation) and a Calibration section at the bottom of the
Edit panel.

- Once the current photo's loupe render is done, the next and previous photos in filmstrip
order get a background loupe job (Slot::Prefetch, priority below on-screen thumbnails,
once per settings): the decoded 2560 px source is kept in the engine's bounded preview
LRU and the view render is cached, so stepping to a neighbour shows its developed image
in ~50 ms and then re-renders only on the GPU.
- lightcraft_gpu::warm_up (called when the app is created) builds the device and kernels on
a background thread; gpu::ready() answers without blocking and ui.inspect uses it, so the
UI thread never waits for device creation.
- docs/gpu-pipeline.md: opening-a-photo section.
Stepping through 24 MP raws in the loupe (real app): full render 220–580 ms → 45–62 ms.

Renders run in dedicated module Web Workers, each a second instance of the app's wasm module
(index.html compiles it once and posts the WebAssembly.Module to worker.js). A job crosses as
JSON (WireJob: source, settings, request); the worker reads originals and cached thumbnails from
browser storage itself, keeps decoded sources and per-view stage caches, and transfers RGBA back.
Jobs follow the worker that decoded the photo; the loupe waits for it. No wasm threads or
SharedArrayBuffer needed; falls back to inline rendering if no worker starts (?workers=0).
Thumbnail disk cache on the web: thumbs/<key>.jpg in OPFS/IndexedDB with an index on the main
thread, pruned to the desktop budget (2 GB → 80 %, LRU).
ui-egui: RenderOffload hook in the Renderer (queue/priorities/dedup stay in the UI).
engine: RenderJob.origin + MediaCache::origin_ref; preview: encode_jpeg/decode_jpeg public.
xtask web: copies worker.js; --serve sends COOP/COEP/CORP (documented in docs/web.md).
Headless Chrome, cold load + grid scroll, 24 demo photos: main-thread busy 12.4 s → 0.7–1.1 s,
long tasks 23 (max 1.1 s) → 0; grid filled in 6.3–8.4 s vs 13–16 s; slider job 4 ms.

`media::develop` renders on the GPU when available (views, render_now, exports;
thumbnails stay on the CPU) and falls back to the CPU otherwise. `app.gpu
{enabled?}` toggles it at runtime, `LIGHTCRAFT_GPU=0` disables it for the process,
`ui.inspect` reports the adapter under perf.gpu.
Performance: dropped device buffers are recycled once their thread has submitted
(fresh 100-300 MB allocations per pass cost as much as the passes), Gaussian
passes ping-pong between two buffers and read all channels of a pixel at once,
and long box radii slide over longer chunks. LIGHTCRAFT_PROFILE prints real GPU
stage timings. render_bench prints CPU and GPU columns and the CPU/GPU difference.
24 MP ARW, loaded machine, min of 7: cold loupe 415 -> 32 ms, exposure drag
22-42 -> 3.9 ms, NR drag (1920) 301+ -> 18 ms, export render 1037+ -> 291 ms;
max 1 LSB difference. docs/gpu-pipeline.md describes the implementation.

Integrated with M4 optics/Upright: render_impl resolves Upright and uses frame_for (lens + auto CA)
on the cached source; defringe runs in the cached linear stage and optics settings are part of its key.
Stage-cache equivalence test extended with optics/geometry steps.

- ui-egui/softpaint: pure-Rust rasterizer for tessellated egui output (gamma-space premultiplied
blending like egui-wgpu, bilinear texel-centre sampling, scissor clips, tie-break rule so shared
edges blend once, parallel row bands, deterministic) + CPU texture mirror from TexturesDelta.
- ui-egui/headless: HeadlessView (offscreen context with our fonts/theme) and Headless (windowless
app session: logic+ui per frame, answers viewport Screenshot/InnerSize/Close, settle loop,
control requests through the shared handler).
- ui.screenshot {headless: true} in the running app renders from the logic tick (works while the
window is occluded / display asleep); windowed captures fall back to headless after 2 s.
Screenshots now wait for in-flight renders, not just queued ones.
- lightcraft-cli snapshot [--demo|--library DIR] [--script f.jsonl] -o out.png --size WxH --scale S.
- Fixes found with it: dialog backdrop was painted over the dialog itself (now an area below the
window); dialog content padding; crop overlay options use our buttons (registered widget ids).
- Docs: control-protocol.md (headless section), AGENTS.md (prefer headless when unattended).

apps/lightcraft-web runs the egui UI in the browser (eframe web, glow/WebGL2):
procedural demo library on load; in-memory imports via file picker
(Cmd+Shift+I) and drag-and-drop (MemStore + bytes-based engine hooks);
export goes through app.export and downloads in the browser; `?bench` logs
first-frame and slider latency. `cargo xtask web [--serve [port]] [--dev]`
builds with the matching wasm-bindgen CLI into <target>/web/; the web app is
part of the CI wasm check. Wasm fixes: lazy profiling Instant in pipeline,
web-time clocks in ui-egui (render timings were 0 on wasm). Docs: docs/web.md.
No persistence on web yet.
