- AGENTS.md: a "Never crash" section ahead of the asset rules (the rule, why, the bans, Result/? patterns, hostile input-derived numbers, bounded recursion, lock poisoning, the last-resort guard, a regression test per crash fix), linking craftrules standards/never-crash.md. CLAUDE.md and CONTRIBUTING.md point to it. - clippy.toml: allow unwrap/expect/panic/indexing in tests, so the restriction lints can be denied crate by crate without touching test code. - [workspace.lints.rust] unsafe_code = "forbid" (was "deny"); there is no unsafe or allow(unsafe_code) in the workspace.

# Contributing to EffectCraft
|
|
|
|
Thanks for helping. Please read [AGENTS.md](AGENTS.md) first: its rules on assets and clean-room
|
|
work apply to everyone, people and AI agents alike, and they are not negotiable.
|
|
|
|
## Setup
|
|
|
|
You need [Rust](https://rustup.rs/) 1.95 or newer.
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
cargo run -p effectcraft # the desktop app, with the demo project
|
|
cargo test --workspace
|
|
cargo xtask ci # what every commit must pass
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Ground rules
|
|
|
|
- **Clean room.** Work from After Effects' public documentation and its observable behaviour only.
|
|
Never use Adobe artwork, presets or code, and never copy GPL/LGPL/AGPL code.
|
|
- **Every asset is attributed.** Add a `.attribution` sidecar and an [ATTRIBUTION.md](ATTRIBUTION.md)
|
|
row; `cargo xtask assets` checks it.
|
|
- **Layering.** Nothing below the interface layer depends on UI or OS crates; see
|
|
[docs/architecture.md](docs/architecture.md).
|
|
- **Everything is a command.** New features are engine commands with an id, label, menu path,
|
|
shortcut and parameters, so the UI, the CLI and the MCP server get them at once. Interactive
|
|
widgets register an automation id.
|
|
- **Never crash.** Non-test code returns errors instead of panicking: no `unwrap()`, `expect()`,
|
|
`panic!`, `unreachable!`, `todo!`, `unimplemented!` or `unsafe`, checked indexing and arithmetic on
|
|
input-derived values, and a regression test with every crash fix. See the "Never crash" section of
|
|
[AGENTS.md](AGENTS.md).
|
|
- **Tests with every change**, and green `cargo xtask ci` before every commit. One task per commit.
|
|
|
|
## How to add…
|
|
|
|
- **An effect:** add an `EffectSpec` in `crates/effects` (AE display name, category, parameters
|
|
with AE's names, defaults and ranges) and its render function, with a determinism test and a
|
|
behaviour test. If it reads the clock directly, add it to `TIME_DEPENDENT`.
|
|
- **A command:** register it with `cmd!` in `crates/engine/src/commands/`, place it in the menu
|
|
tree in `crates/engine/src/menus.rs`, and test it including undo.
|
|
- **A panel or dialog:** `crates/ui-egui/src/panels/`; look at the result with the headless
|
|
snapshot tool described in [docs/testing.md](docs/testing.md).
