Effect › Distort & Transform › Transform… was a plain list of fields.
It now has Transform Each's layout: Scale and Move with sliders, Rotate
with an angle dial, then Copies, Reflect X and Y, the reference point and
Random, kept with the effect so editing it from the Appearance panel
shows them again.
- The effect scales, rotates and reflects about the chosen point of the
9-point grid (`reference`, the centre by default).
- Random takes a share of each value, drawn from the object's id: each
object varies its own way and keeps its result on every redraw; a
group's members move together.
- Copies stop before one reaches past 1e9 pt, and the scale and move are
capped, so large values can't overflow.
- Transform Each and the effect share the sections and options code; the
angle dial is a new widget.
- A plain number field now takes the focus when it is a dialog's first
field, so both dialogs open with Scale › Horizontal ready for typing.
Transform Objects, Transform Patterns and Scale Strokes & Effects are not
in the effect yet: the geometry effects reshape paths only.

PDF export now renders the shadows, glows, blurs and feathers of groups,
layers, type, images, symbol instances, live objects and single fills and
strokes (and those inside opacity masks, symbol definitions and pattern
tiles) as images at the document raster effects resolution, instead of
leaving them out with a warning. Shadows and outer glows go under the
untouched vector art; a path whose fills or strokes carry effects is
written as one piece per fill and stroke. Expand Appearance shares the
image helpers (moved to rasterfx.rs); effect images now cover what the
renderer paints (members' shadows included).

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.

effect.expandAppearance now expands the whole appearance: each visible fill becomes a
path of its own and each stroke its outline (a brushed stroke its brush art), grouped
in paint order under the object's id and transparency; geometry effects are baked and
raster effects become an embedded image (shadows below the art, blur/feather/inner glow
replacing it). Type with effects or its own fills is outlined, and a group's or layer's
own fills and strokes are expanded among its members. The command is enabled whenever
an appearance isn't basic. Builds on bake_leaf (effects::expand_leaf / expand_art) and
shares the raster-effect image code with PDF export.

A group's or layer's own fills and strokes paint every member's geometry, below or above the
members as the new contents slot (Appearance.contents_index) says; its geometry effects reshape
the members as one piece and its raster effects apply to the composite (one combined shadow),
respecting knockout groups. Type's own fills and strokes paint under or over its characters.
Render, SVG/PDF (via bake) and Expand Appearance evaluate them alike.
Commands: appearance.* / effect.* take target: "object"|"contents" and layer ids;
appearance.moveItem moves the Contents slot (from: "contents") or an item across it
(contents); appearance.targetContents selects a group's members. Graphic styles applied to a
group now style the group itself. The Appearance panel shows Contents/Characters rows that
drag, and double-click to target the members or edit the characters' paint.
