The shared release workflow installs trunk, but EffectCraft's web build
runs the wasm-bindgen CLI directly (cargo xtask web), so the Web job
fails with "wasm-bindgen CLI not found". In CI, package.sh now installs
the CLI at xtask's WASM_BINDGEN version, as the per-app release.yml did
before the move to craft-common-actions.

The previous release build failed in craft-common-actions, not in this
repo: riscv64 packaging got --formats deb,rpm,tar (fixed in
craft-common-actions#3), Linux jobs lacked the ALSA headers
(craft-common-actions#5), and Windows signing needed the AZURE_* secrets
listed in the caller.

Opening movies in place (#796) skipped the whole-file bytes #827 read the
track matrix from, so the pool and the probe lost the turn for movies on
disk. stream::movie_header reads just the ftyp and moov boxes (bounded,
positional reads) and both in-place paths derive the orientation from it.

The window opened at a fixed 1680 × 1020 wherever the system put it. Its size, position
and maximized state are now saved to window.json in the config directory (when they change,
and on exit) and restored on the next launch, moved onto a monitor that is still connected.
The first launch fits the window to its screen. Agent-driven runs (--control) restore the
saved window but don't overwrite it.

A movie shot with a phone held upright stores sideways frames and says so
in its video track header; it imported lying on its side. Probing now
reports the turned size, and decoded frames (full and reduced size) are
turned to match. Only the rotation is used, snapped to a quarter turn;
mirroring, scaling and offsets in the header are ignored.

Problem: app.scheduleTask(code, delay, true) queued the task and then
skipped it (eval_with_tasks: `if repeat { continue; }`), so repeating
tasks - what ScriptUI panels use for polling and refreshing - never ran.
One-shot tasks scheduled by handlers or in the Script Console never ran
either.
Fix: tasks live per script context (crates/script/src/tasks.rs) with a
due time. Frontends run the due ones every frame through the new
ScriptUi::run_tasks hook (the egui app does; agents and headless hosts
use the `script.runTasks` command). Script-host threads get a Tick
message, inline hosts (Script Console, web) run in their kept context.
A repeating task runs every `delay` ms until app.cancelTask, until it
throws (reported once, then cancelled), or until its owner goes: the
script's last window closing, or - for scripts without windows and the
console - the project being closed or replaced (ScriptUi::project_epoch).
Bounds: at least 50 ms between runs, at most 64 pending tasks per
script, one run per pass (no catch-up bursts), task code nested too
deeply is refused, the engine's loop and recursion limits apply. Ticks
only reach the hosts of the session that scheduled them.

Problem: After Effects 26 imports FBX models into Advanced 3D comps; File > Import rejected
.fbx, so FBX product shots and scenes could not be used.
Fix: a clean-room FBX 7.x reader in effectcraft-model (binary node records with 32/64-bit
offsets and zlib arrays, ASCII syntax) and a scene builder: meshes with normals, UVs and
per-polygon materials, the Model hierarchy with the SDK transform (pivots, offsets, pre/post
rotation, rotation order, geometric transform), Lambert/Phong materials onto
metallic-roughness with embedded or relative textures, and GlobalSettings axes turned to
Y-up. Wired into import, probing, the media browser and the file dialog. Hostile input
(truncation, corruption, huge arrays, deep nesting) fails with an error.

* Release prep: bump to 0.8.0 and add a Linux riscv64 release build
- release.yml: new `linux-riscv64` job, ported from GridCraft. It cross-compiles on
ubuntu-24.04 against riscv64 libraries from ports.ubuntu.com (the Linux job's X11/Wayland/GL
-dev packages plus ALSA), ships effectcraft-<v>-linux-riscv64.tar.gz, and smoke-tests
effectcraft-cli under qemu-riscv64. The draft-release job now needs it, so its tarball is
uploaded and covered by SHA256SUMS.txt.
- packaging/linux/package.sh: cross-compiles when CROSS_ARCH/CROSS_TARGET/CROSS_COMPILE are set
(cargo --target, the cross strip, the EMULATOR smoke test), as GridCraft's does.
- Version 0.7.0 -> 0.8.0 (cargo xtask version set), Cargo.lock refreshed.
- README and docs/releasing.md list the riscv64 tarball.

* Fix FreeBSD CI: pointer_wrap test harness, wasm32 target, clippy as_chunks
- pointer_wrap tests: the harnesses dropped run_ui's FullOutput with the font atlas upload still
in textures_delta, and epaint 0.36's drop check panics on that in debug builds. Every
pointer_wrap test failed on every platform; FreeBSD is the only CI that runs them. Clear the
delta, as the other UI tests do.
- freebsd.yml: install wasm32-unknown-unknown in the VM. Without it the host plug-in test's build
of examples/plugins/posterize-bands failed (E0463, no std) and the test skipped silently; now
it builds and runs.
- media/convert.rs: chunks_exact(2) -> as_chunks::<2>() (clippy chunks_exact_to_as_chunks,
new in Rust 1.99); same pairs, same dropped remainder.

Animated GIFs came in as one still frame in 0.7.0; bfbdadd3 (after that
release) probes them as movies. This end-to-end test imports a GIF file
through the wired session into a comp and checks the layer shows each of
its frames at its time, the path the viewer and exports share.

Preserve legacy selection repair, modifier routing, viewer lifecycle and workspace persistence through the shared docking integration. Qualify the complete workspace gate by refreshing the 18 stale Audio Spectrum hashes for the existing linear renderer, with an independent synthetic-tone regression.
The file dialogs were blocking rfd::FileDialog calls made inside eframe's frame,
that is inside winit's event handler. On macOS the dialog runs a nested modal
event loop there; a file dragged over the window while it was open reached
winit's handler again, which refuses re-entry with a panic across the
Objective-C boundary, aborting the app (Import with Cmd+I, then a drag).
Hooks gains file_dialog_async: a host that sets it shows a command's file dialog
(Import, Open, Save As, Save Frame As, presets, guides, templates, Collect Files,
Relink...) without blocking, and the command runs with the answer on a later
frame (menus::dialog_answered, drained at the start of each frame); a cancelled
dialog runs nothing. The macOS app implements it with rfd::AsyncFileDialog, a
sheet on the window answered when it closes, outside the frame. Other platforms
keep the blocking dialogs (winit queues their re-entrant events), as do the few
panel buttons that pick a file in place (Settings paths, shortcut import/export,
effect file pickers).
Test: with a non-blocking hook, Save As and Save Frame As return at once without
the blocking dialog, the save happens when the answer arrives from another
thread, and a cancelled dialog writes nothing. The macOS sheet itself needs a
manual check (Cmd+I, drag a file over the window, pick or cancel).

The app bundle exported ai.storyteller.effectcraft.document with the
`.pcraft` extension, PhotoCraft's document format. Installing EffectCraft
took `.pcraft` over, and since EffectCraft declared no document types,
neither app was offered for PhotoCraft documents in Finder. EffectCraft's
own projects (.ecproj, .ecprojx) had no file type at all.
- Info.plist: the exported type now tags .ecproj and .ecprojx ("EffectCraft
Project", conforming to public.data and public.content rather than
public.image), and CFBundleDocumentTypes makes EffectCraft their owner.
- Finder double-click, Open With, Dock drops and `open -a EffectCraft
x.ecproj` send a kAEOpenDocuments Apple event that winit 0.30 doesn't
handle. Register it with the audited fmv-macos-events crate that
PhotoCraft and PdfCraft use (it keeps the unsafe Objective-C interop out
of this workspace). Opened paths go through the dropped-file handling, so
a project opens after the unsaved-changes prompt and media is imported. A
quit event closes the window.
- The event that launches the app arrives before the UI draws: the first
frames skip the panels until the fonts are installed, which dropped it.
The paths wait for EffectcraftApp::is_ready().

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.

Cause: pipeline::Cx rendered with Backend::Auto, which picks the CPU or the
GPU compositor for each top-level frame from measured frame times
(render::AutoPick: warm-up on both sides, a re-probe every 48 frames). The
two compositors differ slightly, so frames came out differently depending
on which side the timings favoured in that run, and two GPU exports of the
same frames differed.
Fix: the job renders every frame on the project's renderer, as After
Effects renders a job with one renderer: Backend::Gpu with Mercury GPU
Acceleration (frames the GPU declines still render on the CPU, as they do
in every GPU render), Backend::Cpu with Mercury Software Only. The viewer
and previews keep Auto. Docs (architecture, parity, web) say so.
Tests: render_settings::a_job_renders_on_one_compositor exports ten frames
with a stand-in GPU compositor that keeps Auto history and draws solid
green: with Mercury GPU Acceleration every frame is green and two runs are
identical (with Auto the warm-up sent frames to the CPU: it fails), with
Software Only the stand-in is never asked. The web worker GPU job test's
comment no longer describes Auto.

EXtractoR's Red, Green, Blue and Alpha are text parameters naming
channels, and Effect Controls drew nothing for text parameters: there
was no way to choose a layer or channel. And a multi-layer OpenEXR file
whose colour is only in named layers (`diffuse.R`, Blender's
`ViewLayer.Combined.R`) didn't import at all: the image decoder wants an
unnamed RGB layer ("does not contain non-deep rgb channels").
- Effect Controls: EXtractoR gets a Layer popup listing the footage's
OpenEXR layers. Picking one sets red, green, blue and alpha to its
channels in one undo step, as After Effects' EXtractoR dialog does (a
one-channel layer such as depth goes in all three colours). Red /
Green / Blue / Alpha are popups of the layer's own R, G, B, A, every
channel of the file, and (none). The lists are read only while open,
so playing an EXR sequence doesn't parse files on the UI thread.
- `layer.channels {layer}` lists a layer's EXR layers and channels and
what each layer shows in red, green, blue and alpha, for agents.
- Media: an EXR without an unnamed RGB layer imports and shows its
colour layer (one named combined, beauty or rgba first); its channels
stay available to EXtractoR and the 3D Channel effects.
- Raster: AuxChannels::layers / layer_rgba and split_channel.
Test: extractor_shows_the_chosen_layer_and_channels_of_a_layered_exr
(host: a layered EXR written with the exr crate imports, layer.channels,
EXtractoR renders spec and depth; it failed to import before),
extractor_offers_the_exr_layers_and_channels (UI: Layer popup, one undo
step, channel popup), layered_exr_without_an_unnamed_rgb_layer_imports
(media).

The interface language was English unless Japanese was chosen in
Settings ▸ General ▸ Language. Language now has a Match System choice
(`general.language` = `system`), the new default: the operating
system's interface language where EffectCraft has a translation
(Japanese), else English, as After Effects installs in the system's
language. English and Japanese can still be chosen; a language chosen
before stays. The browser build stays in English with Match System,
since it has no Japanese font of its own.
The system language comes from sys-locale (MIT OR Apache-2.0, no
dependencies on the desktop platforms), on desktop builds only.
Tests: match_system_uses_the_system_language_where_there_is_a_catalog
(i18n), interface_language_is_validated_persisted_and_backward_compatible

* About: contributors compiled in from contributors.json (grab bag + table, sortable, name toggle)
About EffectCraft now has tabs About · Contributors · Models, following the craftrules standard
(standards/contributors.md): contributors/contributors.json is generated by
craftrules/scripts/contributors.py and baked into the binary by crates/ui-egui/build.rs as static
tables. Each contributor line: @username, opt-in display/real name, PRs, commits, lines +/−/Δ,
binary assets +/−, first/last commit. Sortable by every column; alphabetical ignores case and
the leading @. Every control registers an automation id (about.tab.*, about.credits.*).

The desktop app built eframe without its `links` feature, so egui's open_url was a no-op
on native: the header and Home Discord buttons, Help menu links and Settings links did nothing.
Enabling it links the `webbrowser` crate (MIT OR Apache-2.0), which opens URLs with the
system browser on macOS, Windows and Linux.

- New L1 crate effectcraft-segment: the MaskModel interface (prompts → foreground probability),
a registry of open-licensed models (licence must be MIT/Apache/BSD/…; URL, size, SHA-256),
a PyTorch checkpoint reader (zip + pickle subset), dependency-free SHA-256, and MobileSAM
(TinyViT-5M + SAM prompt encoder / two-way transformer / mask decoder) on rayon and ndarray's
safe GEMM. Loads the official mobile_sam.pt as published; checked against candle
(embedding 0.3% RMS, 99.9% equal mask pixels); ~0.7 s/frame encoder at 32 threads, cached
per frame, ~0.1 s decoder.
- track::roto: segment_with / propagate_with prompt a model with the strokes or the flow-warped
matte (box, core points, mask); its probability is a strong, unblurred prior for the same
graph cut (strokes stay hard constraints); a failing model or one disagreeing with the flow
(IoU < 0.5) is ignored. Prior gets a weight.
- effects::roto: Version 2.0 / 3.0 use the model chosen in Settings (set_model / model_for);
the model id is part of the chain seed.
- engine: roto_models (roto.models, roto.model.select / install / download / remove), weights in
the models folder (host::config_dir()/models, shared by the app, CLI and MCP), background
loading, downloads through the system curl, verified; Settings ▸ Roto Brush page (prefs
roto.model). host::config_dir moved from the desktop app.
- Tests: segment (kernels vs direct sums, checkpoint reader, SHA-256 vectors, registry), track
(fake model: prior shapes the cut, failing / disagreeing models ignored; real weights with
EFFECTCRAFT_MOBILESAM: base IoU 0.989, propagated ≥ 0.980 vs classic 0.973), engine (registry,
verification, selection; real install + load), MCP.
- Docs: README, ROADMAP, parity (MSK-4 done: 90/2/0), preferences, agents, architecture,
crates/segment/README.md.

Bump the FilmCraft crates from 89cfbf2 to 2c5ba7a (118 commits; no API
changes needed here), whose Matroska reader now decodes the VP9 alpha

- GPU in the browser: each frame worker opens its own WebGPU device (Gpu::request_deferred) and
renders the GPU compositor and GPU effects with deferred readbacks (effectcraft-gpu deferred):
readbacks keyed by content start with map_async and miss, the pass returns placeholders, the
layer cache's gate drops inserts, and FrameServer::resume renders again once the device
delivered. Backend Auto times whole frames per comp in the workers. Frames with effects go to
GPU workers instead of the page. CPU fallback without WebGPU in workers (?nogpuworkers).
- Fix: a WGSL constant (3.40282347e38) that Chrome rejects invalidated every GPU kernel in Chrome
(the page's compositor too); a test checks every float literal fits f32.
- Disk cache in the Origin Private File System: workers write sealed frame entries with sync
access handles (temp file + move), the page keeps the DiskIndex (LRU under the settings' limit,
at most half the quota) and reads hits instead of rendering; survives reloads; blue cache bar.
- Storage manager: Settings ▸ Disk ▸ Browser Storage (usage/quota, persistent storage, Clear
buttons, automation ids) and storage.info / storage.persist / storage.clear (StorageHost).
- Docs: web.md (GPU workers, deferred passes, disk cache, storage manager, threading design:
one engine instance per worker), architecture, preferences, parity (WEB-1), roadmap.
- Tests: deferred passes vs CPU on a real device, placeholder gating, frame server passes and
Auto, GPU worker routing + disk cache across a reload, storage commands and widgets, store
usage by kind; smoke test: GPU effect frames in workers with pixel parity, disk hits after a
reload, storage manager.
