gen.image{prompt} is a service inside the assistant: on a worker it
runs the creator pipeline for the image domain against the node the
runner picks (LAN discovery, ETA-ranked, the resident flux model wins),
streams the node's progress into the tool card, and writes the picture
under the makepad home's gen/ dir; the creator library gains
generate_bytes — the request, poll and fetch that generate_and_publish
now shares — so no second pipeline exists. photos.add{path} bakes that
one file into the open library (only from the gen dir or the person's
home), re-opens the wall and glides onto the new picture; the module
executor answers it later through the host's reply sink. The model
chains them, launching photos in between. A registry seam found on the
way: a call dispatched in the same event a link was adopted reached the
port before its Registered, so the registry now answers a leading
Register at once.
The wall gained a search box: every keystroke re-cuts the packing over
the matches (every word in a title or link; title beats link, a whole
word beats a substring), each picture flies from its drawn rect to its
target over 450 ms, dropped pictures shrink and fade, returning ones
grow back; Esc clears; ⌘F or a bare slash focuses the box; the status
reads "35 of 293 · ro". photos.filter{query} sets the same from the
pane; instances are rebuilt only while a flight runs, and the clock is
the platform's.
Proven on the fleet: "make me a picture of a red bicycle on the moon
and put it in photos" → the file in 40 s, photos launched, added and
shown among the comics; typing r, ro, rob re-packs the wall live; the
filter through the pane in a process tile and as a module. ai-services
39, aichat 5, photos 9, image_tiles 12, creator 9; aichat and photos
check for wasm32.

A pure packer (pack.rs) lays pictures in rank order into rows of one
target height and scales each full row to span the wall exactly, so
tall strips sit beside wide panels with no gaps and no overlap; the
last row keeps the target height instead of stretching two pictures
into giants; a 4 % gutter is split per cell. TileGrid gains the packed
wall as its default (packed: false gives the old uniform grid), frames
its camera on the packing's bounds, hit-tests through the row
partition, and picks each atlas page's level of detail from the
largest visible tile in it rather than one unit cell. photos needs no
change. image_tiles 10 (5 new), photos 7; the photos lib checks for
wasm32. Driven hidden: the 293 comics in justified rows, zoom, pan, a
click on a comic naming it, and photos.show gliding onto one.

apps/photos (lib + bin) puts libs/image_tiles' TileGrid in a tile: it
opens a baked library found by name (IMAGE_TILES_HOME, the cwd's
local/image-tiles, the checkout the binary was built in — the smbc
collection first), shows a status line with the bake command when
there is none, and exposes photos.search (every query word in a title
or link), photos.show (the camera glides onto one picture) and
photos.summary — the same answer for the port and for the module's
executor. PhotosModule mints the view inside an isolate with an open
schema that takes a collection name, never a path; the WM links it
behind app-photos and lists it in the menu. image_tiles learned to
decode GIF and WebP and to read a manifest's pictures from disk, so
the bake can take local/smbc's mirror: the last 300 comics are baked
under local/image-tiles/smbc (293; seven of the mirror's files are
saved error pages). fabric joins the launcher with a title and a
polite close.
Driven hidden: the wall in a process tile beside the left pane, panned
and zoomed; search and show cards; the same wall as an in-process
module; fabric launched and closed; standalone photos with the F10
overlay on the left. photos 7, image_tiles 5, wm 152; the photos lib
checks for wasm32.

Packages are makepad-<name> with the short name as the binary. Env vars
follow (MAKEPAD_WM_*, MAKEPAD_FILES_*, MAKEPAD_TERMINAL_*), config moves
under ~/.makepad/<app>/, the theme namespaces are mod.wm_theme and
mod.browser_theme, the hosted AI envelope key is wm_ai. platform/video
becomes makepad-platform-video so the video app can be makepad-video.
Carries the Score entries that were pending in the WM's curated table.

The Source Library wall's pixel engine, extracted for anyone's pictures:
libs/image_tiles carries the NV12 slot pyramid, the 32x32 shard atlas
geometry and the one-HEVC-intra-frame-per-file tape codec (tape.rs), a
small SQLite index (db.rs), a priority decode pool (store.rs), and the
TileGrid widget — instanced tiles batched per atlas page, anchor-locked
wheel zoom with log-space glide, continuous per-shard LOD with
crossfades, full-resolution promotion under byte budgets with LRU
eviction, and uniform-only re-presents inside the pad of the last build.
image-tiles-bake downloads a manifest of URLs (fetch pool free to be
wide, encode pool hard-capped — concurrent VT session churn has panicked
the encoder's IOMMU) and bakes a library; examples/image_tiles views one.
No JPEGs on disk; decode and encode are the hardware's.
