- Every Preferences > File Handling > Data Recovery interval, modified documents
changed since their last copy are written to the recovery store in the
background (the same snapshot and encoder as Background Save; the status bar
shows it). Complex documents (over 20,000 objects) are skipped while Turn off
Data Recovery for complex documents is on.
- A copy goes when its document is saved, reverted, closed or undone back to its
saved state, and when the app quits with nothing unsaved.
- Each running app keeps its copies in an area of its own: a sub-folder whose
.lock file it keeps locked for its lifetime (File::try_lock), or on the web a
heartbeat refreshed every minute. Only areas nobody holds (lock free, or no
heartbeat for three intervals, at least three minutes) are offered, and an
area is held while it is restored or discarded, so a second running instance
never offers or deletes a live instance's copies. Empty leftover areas are
tidied away.
- The next launch after a crash asks with the Recover Documents dialog (Restore /
Discard / Cancel): restored documents open as "<name> [Recovered]", unsaved, and
Save asks where to save them, suggesting their original file; the copy moves
into the new app's area.
- Store: the recoveryFolder preference, else Data Recovery beside the desktop
app's preferences; browser storage on the web (Services::recovery_store);
tests use an in-memory store (with in-memory locks, or heartbeats).
- Engine: file.recovery.save, file.recovery.list, file.recovery.restore {file?},
file.recovery.discard {file?}; DocState.recovered and DocState.recovery.

Shipped code no longer unwraps, expects or panics: every one of the 124
unwrap()/expect()/panic!/unreachable! sites outside tests now handles the
failure (Result/Option, ?, let-else, defaults) and reports errors to the user.
- Lints: workspace clippy denies unwrap_used, expect_used, panic, todo,
unimplemented and unreachable; clippy.toml allows them in tests, and
integration tests, examples and testkit opt out explicitly.
- Safety net (vectorcraft_engine::guard): a panic in a top-level command rolls
the document back and returns EngineError::Internal; a panicking tool is
reset; the MCP server answers with an internal error and keeps serving; the
UI frame and each control request are guarded.
- APIs that hid failures now return them: Rendered::to_png/to_jpeg/to_webp
return Result (JPEG/WebP errors used to write empty files),
FontDb::face returns Option, Region::top returns Option.
- Fuzzing: engine/tests/import_fuzz.rs feeds garbage, hostile and mutated SVG
and PDF through import → render → export (30k cases locally, no panics).
- Docs: AGENTS.md/CLAUDE.md rule, docs/development.md "Robustness" section,
README pointer and a PR template checklist.

- New original DrawCraft mark (gradient + pen nib) replaces the two-letter badge
- render: thumbnails and pattern tiles use a single-threaded context (vello's default is
multithreaded and panics on filters); per-item raster effects detected
- Type tool state no longer leaks across documents
- ui.set {status} for clean screenshots
- README: new hero, feature shots, Made in DrawCraft gallery; examples/neon-drive, ribbons,
feature-sheet; ASSETS.md updated; heading renamed to Crafting Apps
