Soft proofing (S in the loupe; S in grids stays Expand/Collapse Stack):
- pipeline Proof {space, destWarning, displayWarning}: gamut-map into the
proof space, show it in the output space; red/blue gamut warnings
(neutral clipping excluded). CPU only; the GPU path declines proofs.
- RenderJob::with_proof; paper-white surround and Proof Preview label;
Soft Proofing strip under the histogram (profile, warnings, Create
Proof Copy = a named virtual copy). view.softProof for control/MCP.
- photo.virtualCopy takes an optional name.
Mask components: MaskComponent.name; mask.component {component, action:
invert|duplicate|delete|rename|op}; right-click / … menu per component,
double-click rename, Intersect button.

- develop.quickAdjust {control, delta}: adds a step to every target photo's own value (one undo
step); the Edit panel shows Quick Develop rows (exposure ⅓ / 1 stop, contrast, highlights,
shadows, whites, blacks, clarity, vibrance, temperature) in the grid with several selected.
- library.findSimilar {id?, similarity?}: look-alike photos by their culling signature (cached
per content), most similar first, as a view filter (Filter.only); photo menu entry.
- develop.matchExposure: selected photos' Exposure set so shutter × ISO ÷ aperture² + slider
matches the active photo; photos without exposure data are skipped.
- Impromptu slideshow row marked (View ▸ Slideshow).

Mask.refine (0–100, mask.refine; Masking panel ▸ Refine Edges): after a mask's components are
combined, a guided filter steered by the photo's luminance (window up to ~4 % of the long
edge) snaps soft mask edges to the photo's edges. Rendered on the CPU (the GPU path has no
kernel for it yet).

lightcraft-pipeline dust.rs: sensor-dust detection on a rendered image — pixels darker than
their blurred surroundings by more than 3× the local texture, grouped into small (0.15–2 % of
the long edge), roughly round blobs. spot.findDust {sensitivity?, add?} renders the uncropped
photo, detects and adds a heal spot on each (auto source; one undo step). Remove panel ▸
Find Dust Spots.

lightcraft-pipeline cull.rs: focus (Laplacian energy of the sharpest 16-px blocks at 512 px,
0–100, calibrated on the CC0 corpus), clipping share and an 8×8 look-alike signature.
photo.analyze scores the selection (else the view), groups look-alike shots taken within 10 s
into bursts and marks each burst's sharpest; optionally rejects photos below a focus score and
picks each burst's best (one undo step). Scores live on the photo (Analysis, Op::SetAnalysis):
rule fields Focus and Best of Similar Shots, Info panel line. Photo ▸ Assisted Culling….

folder.rename {path, name} and folder.move {path, into}: the folder is renamed / moved on disk
in one step (its files and sidecars go along) and the photos inside are relinked (and a
browsed folder follows); like the file manager it is not an undo step. Refuses clashes, moves
into itself and the library's own folders. Local folder tree: Rename Folder…, Move Folder To…,
Show in Finder.

lightcraft-pipeline gains lut.rs: a .cube parser (LUT_3D_SIZE, DOMAIN_MIN/MAX, TITLE), a
trilinear lookup and an in-process registry; the finishing stage applies a `lut:` profile to
the display-encoded colour, blended by the profile amount (0–200 %); LUT profiles render on the
CPU. profile.import {paths} reads files, folders and zips, copies each LUT into the library's
Profiles/ folder, lists them in prefs and registers them when the library opens; the profile
browser shows them under their folder / zip name; profile.deleteImported. File ▸ Import
Profiles & Presets…, the file picker and drag & drop take .cube files.

A 100k-photo scaling check (ignored test `scale_100k_library_queries`) showed the left
panel rebuilding the keyword tree every frame (323 ms), the grid recomputing date headers
(57 ms) and the Keywords panel its suggestions (44 ms) every frame.
- keyword_tree builds with hash maps instead of linear sibling scans: 323 → 57 ms at 100k.
- LightcraftApp::caches keeps the keyword tree, date runs and keyword suggestions per catalog
revision (and inputs), so each is computed once per change instead of every frame.

photo.setMeta {gps: "lat, lon" | [lat, lon] | null} — decimal, or degrees / minutes / seconds
with N/S/E/W ("48°51'30"N 2°17'40"E"); applied to all target photos, saved in XMP / exports.
Info: the GPS line is an editable field, and Show on Map opens the place in OpenStreetMap.

- Smart previews (smart.rs): a ~1 MB proxy per photo in the library's "Smart Previews" folder
(the decoded preview-size source, scaled, sRGB-encoded JPEG behind a one-line header). When
a photo's original is missing (an unplugged drive), its source loads from the proxy: the
photo renders, edits and exports at proxy size. library.smartPreviews {discard?},
photo.smartPreview status; File ▸ Previews ▸ Build / Discard Smart Previews; Info shows
"Original offline · editing the smart preview".
- Photo ▸ Duplicate (photo.duplicate): a real "-copy" file with the same settings, metadata,
rating, flag, label and albums; one undo step.

library.autoImport {folder, copy, album} (in prefs) and library.autoImportScan: files in the
watched folder the library doesn't have are added once their size held between two scans
(still-copying files wait), in place or copied into Originals, into the named album; each file
is tried once; arrivals don't take the selection. The desktop app scans every 3 s with a toast;
Settings ▸ Import ▸ Auto Import picks the folder.
Fix: library.import into an album no longer fails when nothing was selected.

Op::SetContent records a photo's file facts (size, dimensions, content hash; undoable).
photo.reload re-probes the photos' files and, for those that changed on disk, updates them and
drops their cached sources; render keys now include the file's content key, so the grid and
loupe re-render. The app reloads this session's external-edit copies whenever its window
regains focus (with a toast).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
photo.editExternal renders the active photo with its edits as a 16-bit TIFF "<name>-Edit.tif"
(Adobe RGB by default; ProPhoto / P3 / sRGB) next to the original, never overwriting, adds it
stacked on top of the original and selects it. Photo ▸ Edit in External Editor (⇧⌘E, as
observed; the export dialog stays on ⇧E) then opens it in the application set in Settings ▸
General ▸ External Editor, or the system default (desktop: open -a / start / xdg-open,
spawned, never waited for).

- Auto versions: leaving an edited photo keeps its settings as an Auto version (when they
differ from its latest version; 20 kept); saved with the library, not an undo step.
- View ▸ Slideshow (⌥⌘↩, `interval`): the photos in view full screen, wrapping; Space
pauses, ←/→ step, Esc ends.
- Photo ▸ Convert to DNG (photo.convertToDng): lossless DNG next to the raw with the settings
embedded; the photo and its virtual copies are relinked (Relink gains an optional format),
originals kept, undoable. Import: Copy as DNG (`dng`) for copy imports.
- A fine grid over the photo while a geometry slider is dragged.
- View ▸ Show Photo Counts; Help ▸ System Info… (app.systemInfo, JSON for agents).
- Native menus: modified Enter accelerators.
- Parity rows refreshed (target / quick collection, auto sync, location rules, bring to front).

Albums gain a `quick` flag: the Quick Collection is created the first time B adds to it.
album.toggleTarget adds the selection to the target album (the Quick Collection unless
album.setTarget names another regular album) or removes it when all of it is already there;
album.clearQuick empties it. B in the photo / square grids does this (with a toast); in the
loupe and edit views B stays the masking brush. Album menu: Set as Target Album / Stop Using

lightcraft-meta gains tags.rs: every tag of IFD0 and the EXIF, GPS and interoperability IFDs
as (group, name, value) rows, named per the public TIFF / EXIF / DNG specifications, with
common values spelled out (exposure as 1/250 s, f/2.8, 35 mm, orientation, metering, flash,
compression…) and blobs summarised. photo.allMetadata adds the XMP fields (sidecar, else the
file's packet). Info ▸ All Metadata… opens a searchable dialog grouped by TIFF / EXIF / GPS /
XMP.

The Color mask tile adds an empty colour range and arms the picker: click the photo to sample
(⇧-click adds, up to five); Pick in the Masking panel re-arms it. mask.sampleColor {x, y, add?}
samples via lightcraft_pipeline::color_range_sample, which reads the exposed scene colour at
that point in the same OkLab space the mask compares in (so a click selects what was clicked).

Filter.labels: a photo matches when its label is any of them. The filter bar's label toggles
add / remove labels from the set instead of replacing the single label; the summary reads
"label red or yellow". The filter already persists across albums (locked, as in the desktop
app).

lightcraft-catalog gains rules.rs: RuleSet {match: all|any|none, rules: [{field, op, value} |
{group}]} with text, keyword, number, date (is / before / after / between / in the last N
hours…years) and choice operators over 26 fields (rating, flag, label, type, edits, keywords,
any text, filename, title, camera, lens, location, dates, ISO, aperture, focal length,
megapixels, GPS, virtual copy, album…). Filter.ruleSet: smart albums and library.filter use it;
"in the last" counts from the session clock. album.ruleFields lists fields and operators for
agents; rules are validated.
UI: File ▸ New Smart Album… / album context menu ▸ Edit Smart Album… open the rule editor
(field / operator / value rows with per-kind editors, + / − / ⌥+ for groups, live match count).

- Keyword sets: Recent Keywords (the nine most recently added, newest first) plus user sets in
prefs (keyword.sets, useSet, saveSet, deleteSet). keyword.toggleFromSet {index}: adds keyword N
to the selection, or removes it when every photo has it; applying from Recent Keywords keeps
the numbering. Keywords panel: set picker (save current as a set, delete) and a 3×3 grid of
toggles; ⌥1–⌥9.
- ⌘1–⌘5 expand/collapse Light, Color, Effects, Detail, Optics as observed in the reference;
Zoom 100% moves to ⌥⌘0.

library.import gains destination (copies go there instead of the library's Originals/; no
library needed), organize (date | month | flat), rename (file-name template with the rename
tokens, numbered from renameStart; copies are catalogued under their new names) and
metadataPreset. The Add Photos dialog: Copy → Copy to (Choose… / Library), Folders, Rename with
a live example, Metadata preset; batches keep the numbering going.

- develop.autoSync (Edit ▸ Auto Sync, ⌥⇧⌘A): an edit of the active photo carries only the
settings that changed to the other selected photos, in one undo step; slider drags sync on
release; spots / red eye and history restores stay per photo. Edit ▸ Sync Settings in the
menu; Edit panel banner while it's on with several photos selected.
- Colour-label sets: built-in Colors / Review sets plus user sets in prefs (label.sets,
applySet, saveSet, deleteSet); listed in Photo ▸ Set Color Label; the names dialog can start
from a set and save one. XMP sidecars and exported originals write the label's name, and
reading resolves custom names back to their colour.
- Crop: ⌘-drag draws a straighten line and keeps the crop tool active.

Local corrections stored as crs: structures (MaskGroupBasedCorrections and the older
gradient / circular gradient / paint containers) become our masks: linear and radial
gradients, brushes (dab runs → strokes), Subject / Sky, luminance and depth ranges, with
add / subtract / intersect and invert, and all local sliders. lightcraft-meta's XmpData gains
`values`, a structured view of every property (arrays of structs survive); .lrtemplate Lua
tables convert into the same shape.
Applying a preset adds its masks to the photo's own (once; Amount scales them); sidecar masks
replace them and radial masks are fitted to the photo's aspect. Unsupported components
(colour range, other AI selections) are reported as "Mask: <kind>".

preset.import (File ▸ Import Presets…, Presets panel ⋯, drag & drop, CLI, MCP) now reads
everything people actually download or carry over from other editors:
- classic .lrtemplate files (Lua table literal parser; value.settings uses crs: field names),
including old process-version fields (Exposure, Contrast, FillLight, HighlightRecovery,
Shadows, Brightness, Clarity, ToneCurve) approximated with today's sliders;
- photos carrying their edits in XMP ("DNG presets" from mobile apps, edited JPEG/TIFF): the
look only, without the photo's crop, geometry or custom white balance;
- .zip bundles (stored + deflate) of any of these, skipping __MACOSX / hidden files;
- folders: the pack's folder name becomes the group, skipping app/format container folders
("Lightroom Classic", "XMP", "Mobile (DNG)"…).
Each imported preset reports the settings that had no counterpart (`unmapped`: profiles,
looks, local masks); the app's toast names them. dryRun previews, group overrides.
Dropped .lcpreset/.lrtemplate/.xmp/.zip files import as presets instead of photos.

- develop.autoBwMix (B&W Mixer → Auto): each hue band's colourful pixels are pushed away from
the image's mean lightness (light bands brighter, dark ones darker; bands with almost no
colour untouched), clamped to ±60; switches to B&W; one undo step.
- library.filter {merged: hdr | panorama | hdrPanorama | any}: Photo Merge results recognised
by the "-HDR" / "-Pano" / "-HDR-Pano" names merges write; filter bar type picker lists HDR,
Panoramas, HDR Panoramas.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- filter.savePreset / applyPreset / presets / deletePreset: the filter bar's settings saved
under a name with the library; filter bar → Presets (apply, save current, delete).
- Return (tool.done) closes Crop / Remove / Red Eye / Masking back to the Edit panel.
- Parity: zoom while cropping verified (works), hover previews now include versions.

- Export watermark can be a graphic (watermark {image, imageWidth}): a logo with transparency,
scaled premultiplied to a share of the photo's width, converted into the output colour
space, placed with the same anchor / inset / opacity as text; decoded once per file.
Export dialog: Text / Graphic, Choose…, width; size and shadow apply to text only.
- Recently Added: everything imported in the 30 days up to the latest import, newest import
first, grouped by import day (was the latest import day only).

photo's copyright, creator and place); Settings → Import applies one to every import

- ↑/↓ over any slider nudge it by ≈ 1/200 of its range (exposure 0.05, most sliders 1,
temperature 50 K; ⇧ ×5), one undo step each; the key doesn't also move the selection.
- ⇧Z picks and moves to the next photo (with ⇧X / ⇧U).
- library.source {kind: missing}: photos whose file can't be found; a "Missing Photos" row
appears in the left panel when there are any (checked every 5 s).
- Loupe context menu: Zoom submenu. Parity: stale rows fixed (compare/survey, per-camera
defaults, paste from previous, capture-time edit).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- library.missing lists photos whose file isn't where the library expects it; photo.relink
points one at its new location; library.findMissing {folder} relinks every missing photo
whose file (same name and size) is somewhere in a folder, in one undoable step. New
Op::Relink: like a rename in the catalog, but undo/redo never move files.
- UI: File → Find Missing Photos…, photo menu → Locate Missing File… (when the file is gone).
- Renderer: a remembered failure is retried once the catalog changes (a relinked file).

- library.browse {path, subfolders}: a folder's photos are read in place as "local" photos
(catalog flag, SetLocal op) that only folder views list — not All Photos, albums, date
groups, keyword counts or stats. photo.addToLibrary promotes them; importing the folder for
real promotes instead of reporting duplicates. The browsed folder persists with the view.
- UI: Local section (Pictures, Desktop, Downloads, Home, the browsed folder, Browse Folder…);
folder views get a breadcrumb header (each part opens that folder), Include subfolders and
"Add N to My Photos".
- Renderer: a job that fails (unreadable / missing file) is remembered by slot + key and not
requested again every frame — the grid re-queued it forever (a render loop per broken
file). The loupe says "This photo can't be opened" with the reason; grid cells show "!".
ui.inspect lists pending render slots.
- Headless app.export (MCP, lightcraft-cli run) exports the selection like the desktop app.

catalog, photo.setMeta, copy/paste metadata, XMP read/write (Iptc4xmpCore AltText /
ExtDescrAccessibility / Location, photoshop City / State / Country), sidecars and export
(place fields dropped with "remove location").
- Info panel: camera card (camera, lens, size · file size, format badge, focal length,
shutter, aperture, ISO), then title, caption, alt text, extended description, copyright,
creator, file name (rename), file path (reveal), captured (edit), place fields, GPS.
- Text fields keep what is typed across frames and save on focus loss (they were rebound to
the stored value every frame). New pencil icon (drawn in code); dates::display_time.

- photo.copyMetadata / photo.pasteMetadata {fields?}: title, caption, copyright, creator,
location, keywords.
- Photo Merge with last settings (⇧⌃H, ⇧⌃M, HDR panorama): no dialog, the options of the last
merge of that kind.
- Help → LightCraft Help (F1) opens the docs; F-keys map to native macOS accelerators.
- Parity: stale rows fixed (pet eye, merge submenu/keys, preset on import, profile favourites).

- Engine: export split into prepare_export (session thread, cheap) and PreparedExport::run
(Send: read/decode/render/encode); run_batch with per-photo progress, cancel and collected
errors; export_batch keeps the stop-at-first-error behaviour for scripted calls.
- Desktop: the Export dialog, Export with Preset (menu and context menu) and Export with
Previous run their batch on a worker thread (app.export {background: true}); a progress
panel shows count / file / Cancel; ui.inspect reports export {running, last}.
- Headless: settle waits for a running export; `lightcraft-cli snapshot` finishes it before
