Squashed from work; the fine-grained history is under tag archive/work-2026-08-29:
- mp* wave: mpwm window manager + the mp app family, WM API, theme bridge, PDF engine fix
- work: land the sources the last commits reference
- kenney: catalogue all 50 free 3D kits; Modal dismissed() never fired
- asset store: central vision-annotation queue; Kenney donate prompt
- asset-ai: vision domain — image + prompt -> text on every fleet node
- annotation runs the fleet's vision services through the normal job queue
- vj: responsive DJ mixer + Windows drag-and-drop, cherry-picked from PR #1199 (vjroger)
- store search: WordNet synonym expansion, query-side; per-term seeks
- video scheduling: a cold model pin never downloads past a warm one, and a dedicated box only serves its role
- an expansion can never lose a run — and `expand: true` finally means something
- fleet panel: a slow box is not a missing box
- h3: first+last keyframe conditioning (the weights were always FL2VA)
- registry: the three H3 FL2VA tiers name their real conditioning
- fleet scheduling: spread before stacking, and a stuck job moves
- a download never steals a job from a box that has the weights
- the faster GPU takes the tie: 6000 > 5090 > 4090
- an evicted flux model gives the card its VRAM back
- a job now records what each of its stages was handed
- open a stage in RUNS and read what it sent
- every expanded song was an instrumental: the lyrics had nowhere to go
- the writer never overwrites words the person wrote
- store: a dependent job's body is spliced from its deps' results at claim
- a fleet box's job row says what that job was asked for
- the store runs a whole pipeline, and one record says how far it got
- a client can declare a whole run, watch it, and stop it
- 100% now means published, and the expander is a job you can queue
- one card says what a spawned task is doing, everywhere
- a run that ends says so, instead of being noticed later
- when every box holding the model is busy, buy another copy
The asset store now uses libs/sqlite_query as its ONLY engine — not a feature
flag, not a fallback. That closes the Windows gap (the embedded store starts
there now, and a SHARED->EXCLUSIVE upgrade is handled rather than assumed
free) and takes the C dependency out of the build everywhere else.
Around it:
- store: a garbage collector, catalogued content that is referenced in place
instead of copied, the `vjeffect` kind, and host/chat routes that keep up
with the chat wire below.
- importer: the unified map contract reaches quake2, quake3, doom and duke —
world placement, nav, welding, prelit maps and glTF node handling shared
rather than reimplemented per game. Music import, billboards and stateful
props move to the data crate so readers stop linking the importer.
- ai: the serving side of multi-lane chat — per-lane conversations, honest
progress and acceptance reporting, penalties and a watchdog, context as a
per-box number that compacts instead of erupting, a realtime session mode,
and inpaint/flux2 backends. `chat_bench` measures the rate the way the
client meter computes it.
- client / chat / chat_ui: a publication can NAME a file instead of carrying
it; the wire says whether a turn is warm and whether it is thinking, so a
client stops guessing; transcript and feed widgets render history the way
the model wrote it. `SessionConfig::catalog_runtime` lets a host size the
catalog runtime's lanes itself — a browsing UI puts every listing, every
per-tile resolve and every thumbnail blob through that one runtime and
wants a wider fast lane than the shared default, while media lanes keep
it (a few big transfers, not a thousand small ones).
- widgets: the shared asset widgets — one video view (knobbed seek,
transport, bracket trim, rail playback) used everywhere, plus thumb,
preview, scene view, walk-world and the lyric reader.
