0.12.0Big update
Oct 21, 2026
From docs/scorecard.md (done / partial / missing):
| Area | v0.11.1 | v0.12.0 | |---|---|---| | Tools | 33 / 11 / 0 | 36 / 8 / 0 | | File compatibility | 7 / 14 / 6 | 9 / 12 / 6 | | Type | 4 / 3 / 2 | 5 / 3 / 1 | | Workspace and UI | 13 / 6 / 4 | 13 / 7 / 3 | | Open bugs | 29 / 2 / 1 | 31 / 1 / 0 |
- Now done: Content-Aware Move with a coarse-then-exact preview for large selections; shape Density/Feather and mask Density/Feather in Properties; Export As Nearest Neighbor resample; large-file fixtures (20 MP, 150 layers, 2 GB PSD, 4 GB PSB); Warp Text opens with the layer's warp and previews live; retouch-tool mask/channel targeting tests; selection modifiers pressed before the drag.
- Moved up: Alt+wheel zoom (missing → partial); live stroke preview now covers Pattern Stamp, Background Eraser and Color Replacement; Smart Filters map 41 filters to PSD (was 14); tool options and per-tool brushes persist across restarts.
- Settings that do nothing: 24 of 171 (was 25 of 169).
- Performance: no change to the 2026-10-05 baseline (3 within budget, 22 over). Added scenarios P20, P62 and P63 (2 GB PSD, 4–5 GB PSB, 3.1 GP New Document), not run yet.

0.2.0Big update
Oct 5, 2026
- Automation (MCP / control channel) now needs explicit file roots. File access from automation clients is limited to folders you grant with --automation-read-root <dir> / --automation-write-root <dir> (or PHOTOCRAFT_AUTOMATION_READ_ROOT / PHOTOCRAFT_AUTOMATION_WRITE_ROOT), and paths must be relative to them. Without roots, automation file operations fail closed. The desktop control channel also requires the per-launch token printed at startup. Interactive file dialogs and one-shot CLI commands are unaffected.
- Camera RAW: DNG, Canon CR2, Sony ARW (lossless and compressed), Panasonic RW2 and uncompressed Olympus ORF now decode. Nikon's compressed NEF and other formats still open their embedded full-size preview for now.
- Indexed Color: no panic when forced colours fill the palette
- MCP: a panicking command no longer wedges the headless session
- Layers: Add Layer Mask uses the active selection
- feat(ui): add Exit to the File menu
- fix(ui): give menu bar labels more breathing room
- Eraser on Background layer paints the background colour (fixes #15)

- Codecs: camera raw files fail with a clear "not supported" error
- Filter › Other › Minimum / Maximum: Preserve Roundness
- Layer Style › Blending Options › Blend If (render, PSD round trip, command)
- Dialogs can be moved by dragging the title bar

- feat(ui): confirm before discarding unsaved changes
- docs: add mdBook and security documentation foundation
- Never crash: psd, codecs, format, io are panic-free
