Codecs: open Cineon (.cin) film frames read-only (#4691)
* Raw: measure the Nikon D90 image area (4288x2848 at (10, 10))

Aligning the decoded D90 sensor plane with the camera's own JPEG puts the
image at (10, 10) in the 4352x2868 sensor plane, giving the camera's
4288x2848 frame (10-pixel margins; the right border reads the camera's flat
255 from column 4310). Add the measured ImageArea so a D90 NEF opens on the
camera's frame instead of the uncropped plane, and make a measured profile
leave a file that carries its own colour calibration (a DNG) untouched.

* Codecs: open Cineon (.cin) film frames read-only

Cineon is the 10-bit logarithmic film-scan format DPX grew from. Read it from
the same Kodak header family: the generic header (big-endian, orientation at
192, channel count at 193, the channel-1 bits/dimensions), one or three
channels, three 10-bit samples packed into each 32-bit word on a word
boundary. The 10-bit code values open as U16 (round(c x 65535 / 1023)); the
file's log black/white points are a display choice and are not applied. A
depth other than 10 bits or a channel count other than 1/3 is Unsupported;
truncation errors rather than panicking. Read-only (no Cineon writer), so
.cin joins the open filters and Cineon read closes part of #1049's G10 gap.

* cargo fmt the extension lists

Every known shortfall against Photoshop 2026 (27.11.0), one entry each, ranked by user impact on the way to beta. This is the work list agents pick from: take the highest-ranked entry that nobody is working on, and when you close part of one, update its evidence and estimate here and the matching parity doc. Numbers come from target-app-parity.md; checklist ids (TOOL-…, FILE-…, UI-…) are rows in scorecard.md; #n are GitHub issues.

No gap blocks alpha: the alpha gate passes. "Blocks beta" marks what stands between alpha and beta.

Hours are Opus 5.5 agent-hours, one agent working sequentially, including tests. Human marks what an agent can't finish alone.

Feature gaps

G1. PSD fidelity and Photoshop acceptance

  • Missing: PSDs we write are not always accepted by Photoshop, and Photoshop-authored files don't always render as Photoshop renders them.
  • Evidence: corpus floors (crates/io/tests/corpus.rs, scorecard): Photoshop-authored oracles 185/258 (72%; CMYK and Lab adjustment layers, 32-bit unclipped adjustments, Levels, Threshold, Posterize and mask feathers 2026-10-13; Gradient Map luminosity 2026-10-13; CMYK Invert, Posterize and Threshold on the inks 2026-10-12), io corpus 148/170 (87%), psd-tools 249/309 (81%); round trips ~100% within the corpus. Smart-filter re-render matches 5/30. User reports: a PSD with text layers re-saved unmodified would not reopen (#2374, closed 2026-10-10), Photoshop 26.6 cannot reopen our files (#1281), "PSD not opening in Photoshop" (#2469), a CS2-era smart object unavailable (#2465, fixed 2026-10-12), PSB smart object blank (#1764), perspective placed layers flattened (#579, fixed by #426), PSB > 4 GB fails on Windows (#375). No test opens our exports in a third-party editor (FILE-216-4).
  • Impact: PSD is the format professionals exchange. Beta requires it to be reliable.
  • Estimate: 150–250 h. Human: opening exports in Photoshop on the owner's Mac (or a scripted check there) is the only real oracle.

G6. Missing tools

  • Missing (1 of 68): Art History Brush. Convert Point landed (#3204). Freeform Pen and Curvature Pen landed (#1054); Color Sampler landed (#1046, view.colorSamplers.*); Horizontal and Vertical Type Mask landed (#1055, type.createSelection); Perspective Crop landed (#1043, image.perspectiveCrop); Frame landed (#2914).
  • Evidence: Tool enum (crates/ui-egui/src/state.rs) against the 67 <tool> entries of Photoshop's Default Keyboard Shortcuts.kys plus Remove, Triangle and Curvature Pen.
  • Impact: users look for them by name and shortcut; several are daily tools for designers.
  • Estimate: 60–100 h (2–9 h each, per the calibration).

G7. Workspaces shown as parameter dialogs

  • Missing: Select and Mask workspace layout (TOOL-214-1, Refine Hair #2671; its view modes preview live since #1754, Refine Edge Brush #2972); Content-Aware Fill workspace with a paintable sampling area (TOOL-214-15); Vanishing Point plane editor (TOOL-214-14); Content-Aware Move's live preview of the result (TOOL-213-4; Transform On Drop and Content-Aware Scale through the transform box, TOOL-214-7, are done). Blur Gallery: Field, Iris, Tilt-Shift and Spin Blur are edited on the image with Photoshop's pins and handles (2026-10-11, #3373); Tilt-Shift has one band (the engine takes one), and Path Blur (#1759) is still a parameter dialog.
  • Evidence: scorecard rows above, all partial or missing.
  • Impact: these are the tools retouchers and compositors use daily; a slider dialog is not a substitute.
  • Estimate: 80–140 h.

G8. Type depth

  • Missing: type on a path (TYPE-218-1), paragraph direction UI (TYPE-218-2), complex-script fallback fonts and golden tests (TYPE-218-3), OpenType Numerals and Stylistic Sets submenus (TYPE-218-5; the Character panel buttons landed 2026-10-11, #3752), live Warp Text preview (TYPE-218-7, #2689), "rasterize and continue" for distort/perspective on type (TYPE-218-9), text free transform (#2630). Done since the re-measure: manual and optical kerning with PSD round trip (TYPE-218-6, #206), variable-font axes (TYPE-218-4, #2985).
  • Evidence: scorecard Type: 3 done, 2 partial, 4 missing. 2026-10-11: 2/3/4/5 clicks select word, line, paragraph and all text, with tests (TYPE-218-8, #3493). The Type tool froze the app for 60 s on one macOS machine (#2518).
  • Estimate: 120–200 h.

G11. Actions and scripting

  • 2026-10-13 evidence: Batch supports output naming templates using {name}, {serial} and a captured UTC {date}, with a starting serial number. Colliding names remain errors; custom output names cannot replace inputs. AUTO-219-5 stays partial.
  • Missing: document-independent action recording (AUTO-219-1), Batch recursion, open-document inputs, progress/cancel and an error-log file (AUTO-219-5), ExtendScript/UXP compatibility. .atn steps outside the mapped events (paths, scripts, Generative Fill, Filter Gallery effects other than Spatter, Duplicate Layers into a new document, Bitmap halftone screens…) load as kept Photoshop steps that fail at playback by name.
  • Done 2026-10-12: Load/Save Actions .atn in the panel menu, batch --actions set.atn and actions.load/actions.save; 112 Photoshop events map to commands both ways (Transform, Apply Image, Save for Web, smart-object edits, Gradient Map, Quick Mask, polygon selections, Place, Open, Image Size in percent, the Paint Bucket and Insert Conditional since the third and fourth PRs; Select and Mask, Filter Gallery Spatter, Ripple, Crystallize, Pattern Fill layers, targeting the layer mask or composite channel, loading the targeted channel, Step Backward/Forward, removing a layer from the selection, nudges in points, Layer From Background, Grayscale and Bitmap mode objects and Image Size with Resample keeping the print size since the fifth), Play, Stop and conditional steps included; layer steps replay by layer name in any document. Four TrueGrit Texture Supply sets (Debaser, Distress Press, Halftone Zine Machine, Transparency) import with 3 of 533 steps unmapped and play end to end. Filter Gallery Spatter's Smoothness now smooths the spray's displacement, so high values tear an edge without detaching specks, as Photoshop's does (calibrated by eye on the Distress Press guide's screenshots). Crystallize fills each cell with the colour at its point instead of the cell's average, so a black-and-white mask keeps hard edges (not yet checked against a Photoshop render). The panel groups actions in set folders, has the dialog toggle column (playback pauses on the step's dialog and resumes on OK) and Insert Stop…; actions.insert, actions.dialog, actions.assignSet for agents (AUTO-219-2 done).
  • Ahead of Photoshop: CLI, MCP and the JSON control channel drive every command.
  • Estimate: 120–200 h. Human: whether to support a JavaScript scripting dialect at all (AGENTS.md forbids JS in the app).

G14. Camera Raw depth

  • Missing: CR3 (detected, unsupported), compressed RAF, lossy DNG (FILE-215-11), .xmp sidecars, masking and calibration in the Camera Raw dialog, per-camera colour for non-DNG cameras, lens profiles.
  • Evidence: crates/raw/src/lib.rs:228 (CR3), scorecard FILE-215-11/12, #50.
  • Progress (2026-10-11): on the embedded-JPEG rendering work in #2135, Camera Raw tuning retains the fitted look and applies user gains afterwards. Three D5100 NEFs establish a guarded 4928 × 3264 image area. This is an estimated rendering, not a measured D5100 colour calibration; validation.
  • Progress (2026-10-13): the D90's image area (4288 × 2848 at (10, 10) in a 4352 × 2868 plane) is measured by aligning the decoded plane with the camera's own JPEG, so a D90 NEF opens on the camera's frame instead of the uncropped sensor plane; crates/raw/src/cameras.rs (IMAGE_AREAS).
  • Estimate: 120–200 h.

G15. AI and generative features

  • Missing: Generative Fill and Expand, Generative Upscale, Neural Filters, Sky Replacement, Super Zoom, ML Select Subject/Sky. There is no ML runtime (AUTO-219-7). Classical substitutes exist (GrabCut/max-flow selection, Remove tool by non-local patch completion).
  • Evidence: Photoshop's Required/UXP ships the Neural Filters gallery and its .kys has a Neural Filters taskspace; users ask for local models (#2313, #1996, #2682).
  • Estimate: 300–600 h. Human: owner decision #41 (model licences, local vs remote).

G16. Plug-in compatibility

  • Missing: hosting Photoshop .8BF filters (#2647), UXP panels, CEP. PhotoCraft has its own sandboxed WebAssembly plug-in ABI v1 (docs/plugins.md), but ABI v2 (panels, progress, other layers) is missing (AUTO-219-6).
  • Estimate: 250–450 h. Human: .8BF needs native code under the isolated-unsafe rule.

UI / UX gaps

G3. User-reported bug backlog

  • Missing: fixes for 579 open issues (2026-10-10), filed mostly by 0.5/0.6 users. By title: ~150 UI/panels/menus/shortcuts, 94 file/format, 87 layers, 54 painting, 54 selection, 46 type, 41 performance, 34 transform/move, 25 Linux/Wayland, 24 Windows, 20 macOS.
  • Impact: each is a place where a Photoshop user hits something different from what they expect; together they are why ready-for-real-work is ~45% while breadth is ~76%.
  • Estimate: 250–400 h (many overlap with other gaps; count each fix once).

G4. Brush feel

  • Progress (2026-10-13, #3825 partial): Hue Jitter shows a standard themed percentage-amount track rather than a hue spectrum. Other Brush Settings layout and brush-behaviour gaps remain open.
  • Progress (2026-10-13, #3825 partial): Shape Dynamics' Minimum Diameter / Minimum Roundness and Transfer's four Minimum rows disable editing when their Control is Off, retaining the configured values. The other layout and control gaps in #3825 remain open.
  • Progress (2026-10-12, #4283): the five checkbox-only Brush Settings rows keep the open controls selected; Smoothing can be disabled without discarding its amount or mode. This closes that panel interaction gap, not the stroke-quality or performance gaps below.
  • Missing: lag with big brushes (#2619, #1994) and under the cursor (#2566, #1343); jumpy pressure on Windows (#2046) and tap sensitivity (#1933); stair-stepped line weights (#1776), interpolation and smoothing problems (#2138), edge falloff (#2149), pixelated cursor vs Photoshop (#1433), brush rotation not driven by pen rotation (#1301); live preview only for Brush and Eraser (TOOL-213-7); no image file as a brush tip (TOOL-213-12); per-control pressure curves (TOOL-213-11); 4 of Photoshop's symmetry modes.
  • Detail: brush-parity.md.
  • Estimate: 100–180 h. Human: checking feel on real tablets.

G5. Transform, handles and modifiers

  • Missing: the full interpolation list; blend mode/opacity edits during a transform (#1384); path-point nudge; autoscroll at the edge while selecting (#2231); wheel and pinch behaviour (#2485, #2463, #1989); toolbar press-and-hold flyouts (#2301).
  • Done since the re-measure (2026-10-10 to 12): right-click menu during Free Transform (TOOL-214-5); commit/cancel buttons in the options bar (#2442); transform keeps the layer's place in the stack (#2439, #2480); Hand tool no longer interrupts a transform (#2302, #2327); locked layers refused before the drag (#2585, #2609); ⌘-drag temporary Move with box and snapping (#2681, #2684); Auto-Select box follows the picked layer (#2666, #2675); ⌘-arrow layer nudge (#2474, #2556); polygonal lasso Shift angles (#2352, #2396); double-click Zoom tool to 100% (#2508, #2527); tool-key memory in a group (#2608, #2625); hold-a-key spring-loaded tools (#2672); H/V skew fields in the Free Transform options bar.
  • Detail: ui-parity.md.
  • Estimate: 60–110 h.

G9. Panels, preferences and workspace

  • Progress (2026-10-12): toolbar tool shortcuts can be reassigned, removed and reset (#4086), with saved bindings, matching toolbar hints and regression coverage (ui-egui/src/tool_shortcuts.rs).
  • Missing: 27 of 156 preferences do nothing (scorecard prefs audit); panel groups can't float or tear off into OS windows (UI-217-5, #1828, #1213, #2305); Color panel lacks wheel and slider modes (UI-217-17, #2569); more themes (UI-217-11, #2661); layer clipboard (UI-217-23, #2670); tool-specific context menus beyond brushes, selections and Pen (context-menu-parity.md); Libraries, Comments, Contextual Task Bar panels.
  • Estimate: 150–250 h.

G2. Interactive performance

  • Measured progress (2026-10-10): Tilt-Shift's existing per-level halo/copy optimization measures 1.07–1.49× faster across nine local 24 MP cases, with exact finite output bits. The filtered proxy improves for medium/large blur; its default small blur and the 36 MP saturated-field gain are inconclusive. Method and full ranges. Native GUI latency remains unmeasured; no scorecard budget or parity percentage is changed by this work.
  • Missing: 22 of 25 budgeted scenarios are over budget (baseline 2026-10-05, a heavily loaded machine): layer move with styles 321 ms p50 against 25 ms, opacity change 276 ms against 20 ms, paste 12 MP 1.2 s against 100 ms, layer move on 15000×10000 16-bit 2.7 s, Content-Aware Scale 24 MP 954 s against 3 s, Select Subject 559 ms against 100 ms; the 150-layer nudge crashes the GPU compositor (P12); menus slow with thousands of layers (#2460); old machines lag (#2687).
  • Estimate: 200–350 h. Serial in places (compositor architecture).

File-format gaps

G10. Missing and partial file formats

  • Missing: JPEG Options dialog (FILE-215-19), Photoshop PDF read and write and multi-page PDF (FILE-215-10, #2541), AVIF read (#463) and default-build AVIF write, JPEG XL, JPEG 2000 (#1047), Cineon write (read landed), DICOM, EPS/DCS, Pixar, IFF, WBMP, MPO/JPS, PICT, Scitex CT, Photoshop Raw; layered TIFF extra alpha channels (FILE-215-7); spot plates (FILE-215-17); .atn, .asl, .shc, .csh presets (FILE-215-15); C2PA (#1050).
  • Detail: file-format-parity.md.
  • Progress (2026-10-13): Cineon (.cin) 10-bit gray/RGB frames open read-only, sharing the DPX header/unpacking (crates/codecs/src/codecs/dpx.rs); writing is still open.
  • Estimate: 120–220 h.

Hardware gaps

G12. Pen tablets and display hardware

  • Missing: tilt and rotation on Windows (pressure only, via WM_POINTER; no WinTab); native Wayland tablet-v2 (#79; the pen does not click on GNOME 50, #2622, KDE #2297); eraser end on flipped Wacom pens (#2285); HDR/EDR output (Photoshop has "Precise Color Management for HDR Display"); monitor profile detection off macOS and live profile changes; Touch Bar (macOS Intel only, low value); 3D mice.
  • Detail: hardware-parity.md.
  • Estimate: 80–150 h. Human: tablets and HDR displays to test on.

Localization gaps

G13. Hindi, Arabic, Vietnamese, RTL and engine messages

  • Missing: catalogs for Hindi, Arabic and Vietnamese (3 of the 12 key languages); right-to- left UI layout; Devanagari fallback fonts (Thai #1909 and Khmer, Lao and Myanmar #3259 landed); engine error and status messages in English in every language; browser-locale detection and CJK fonts on the web; Japanese IME on Windows (#590); installed Japanese fonts missing from the font list (#2330); Arabic layer names as tofu (#1408, #1693).
  • Evidence (2026-10-11): Czech dynamic UI wrappers, hardware labels and composed messages translate at display sites; engine errors remain English. This does not close G13.
  • Detail: localization-parity.md.
  • Estimate: 80–140 h. Human: native-speaker review of every catalog (none is recorded).

Platform gaps

G17. Platforms and distribution

  • Missing: Windows code signing (material not obtained), in-app update check (DIST-220-1, #2650, #2375), in-app bug report (DIST-220-3), Flathub (#173), starting without a GPU adapter (#2519, #2412), Windows 7 (#2310, out of scope), Intel Macs with OpenCore (#1859).
  • Estimate: 30–60 h. Human: signing certificates.

Revision history

Date Change Summary
2026-10-13 minor G14: D90 image area measured (4288 × 2848 at (10, 10)); gap remains open
2026-10-14 minor Corpus floors raised to the measured results of the CMYK, Lab, 32-bit, Levels, Threshold, Posterize, feather and pass-through fixes landed together: Photoshop-authored 165 → 185 of 258, io 146 → 148 of 170, psd-tools 242 → 249 of 309
2026-10-13 minor G1: CMYK Hue/Saturation and Color Balance work on C, M and Y as inverted RGB with black kept, as Photoshop does; cmyk hue-saturation 100% → 0.4–0.7% bad pixels, color-balance 74% → 25%; floor unchanged
2026-10-13 minor G1: CMYK Posterize works on the stored values (1 − ink); psd-tools posterize_cmyk passes; psd-tools floor → 242 of 309
2026-10-13 minor G1: CMYK stacks with Invert, Posterize, Threshold, Brightness/Contrast, Levels or Curves layers composite on the document's own inks (14 CMYK oracles pass); Photoshop-oracle floor 151 → 165 of 258
2026-10-13 minor CMYK Threshold compares the Rec. 601 luma of the inks' plain complement, as Photoshop does (every pixel of cmyk8/16 threshold-128.psd); oracle bad pixels 1.6% → 0.2%
2026-10-13 minor G1: CMYK Brightness/Contrast (modern and legacy) curves each ink's stored value as Photoshop does; oracle bad pixels 71% → 48–57%, floor unchanged
2026-10-13 minor G1: modern Brightness/Contrast's brightness curve refit to Photoshop (six oracles pass); Photoshop-oracle floor 145 → 151 of 258
2026-10-13 minor G1: Lab documents composite Invert, Posterize, Threshold, Brightness/Contrast and Lab Levels/Curves on their stored L, a, b (no clipped RGB round trip); seven Lab oracles pass; Photoshop-oracle floor 145 → 152 of 258
2026-10-13 minor G1: Levels round every step to whole levels and use Photoshop's shadow toe (slope 2^gamma); levels_rgb and stack-levels-curves-hue-posterize pass; Photoshop-oracle floor 145 → 146 of 258, psd-tools 236 → 238 of 309
2026-10-13 minor G1: 32-bit legacy Brightness/Contrast (pivot 127), Channel Mixer (1/1024 steps, constant ×255/512), Photo Filter and Black & White tint unclipped as Photoshop computes them, CPU and GPU; Photoshop-oracle floor 145 → 149 of 258
2026-10-13 minor G1: mask feathers blur with exactly the feather's variance; psd-tools mask-parameters-no-real-channel passes, layer_mask_data 27 % → 4 % off; psd-tools floor → 240 of 309
2026-10-13 minor G1: Threshold splits on Photoshop's luminosity of whole samples (8- and 16-bit rules exact on four oracles); psd-tools threshold_rgb and threshold_16bits_rgb pass; psd-tools floor → 241 of 309
2026-10-13 minor G1: a pass-through group that is a clipping base and holds an adjustment layer renders isolated; psd-tools passthrough_clipping_mask_adjustment passes; psd-tools floor → 240 of 309
2026-10-13 minor G1: 16-bit Posterize bins the 16-bit sample, as Photoshop does (exact on two oracles); psd-tools floor → 241 of 309
2026-10-13 minor G1: Gradient Map driven by the W3C luminosity (0.3, 0.59, 0.11), as Photoshop is; rgb8/rgb16 gradient-map pass; Photoshop-oracle floor 145 → 147 of 258
2026-10-13 minor G6: stale "missing tool" list corrected against main — Color Replacement (paint.colorReplacement), Red Eye (paint.redEye) and Add/Delete Anchor Point (P flyout, #4144) are live tools, so the toolbox is 67 of 68 and Art History Brush is the only one missing; no percentage or estimate changed
2026-10-13 minor G4: Hue Jitter amount-track appearance (#3825, partial); no readiness percentage or estimate changed
2026-10-13 minor G4: minimum inputs in Shape Dynamics and Transfer follow their Control (#3825, partial); no readiness percentage or estimate changed
2026-10-12 minor G5: Free Transform options bar H/V skew fields done
2026-10-12 minor G11: .atn import maps 112 events (Select and Mask, Spatter, Ripple, Crystallize, Pattern Fill, mask targeting, Step Backward, points, Bitmap)
