Merge 0.1.1 QoL fixes

Post-release quality-of-life work for 0.1.1: - Timeline: right-edge year/month scrubber, full-library load so the scrubber spans everything, and per-row virtualization so dense months scroll smoothly. - Gallery grid row-virtualization; folder reordering (drag + keyboard) with persisted custom order and A-Z/Z-A/Custom sort. - Theme system (Phokus, Subtle Light, Conventional Dark) with an onboarding theme picker, plus subtle-light parity fixes for the lightbox panel, media overlays, duplicate finder, and window controls. - Failed AI-tagging locate/filter from the background worker prompt. - Perf: background media-updated batches no longer re-sort the whole image set. - Video embedding jobs no longer churn through false failures before their thumbnail exists. - Tooling: changelog helper + notes.

+# External CI
+
+CI and release builds run on the GitHub mirror because they require Windows
+runner capacity. The GitHub workflows report their state back to this Gitea
+repository through the commit status API.
+
+Keep this directory in the repository. Gitea checks `.gitea/workflows` before
+falling back to `.github/workflows`; an existing directory with no workflow
+files prevents the GitHub-only workflows from being queued by Gitea Actions.
+
+## Setup
+
+1. In Gitea, create an access token with `write:repository` permission for an
+   account that can update `JezzWTF/phokus`.
+2. In the GitHub repository, add that token as the Actions repository secret
+   `GITEA_STATUS_TOKEN`.
+
+The status steps are non-blocking. If Gitea is temporarily unavailable, the
+GitHub build result is preserved and the failed status update remains visible
+in the workflow log.

-## [0.1.0] — Unreleased
+## [Unreleased]
+
+### Added
+
+- **Timeline scrubber** — a year/month rail on the Timeline view that jumps to
+  any period in the library. Timeline now loads the full filtered set so the
+  scrubber spans the whole library instead of just the first page.
+- **Folder reordering** in the sidebar — drag-and-drop (with edge auto-scroll)
+  or keyboard (↑/↓ on the drag handle), with the custom order persisted across
+  sessions; the Libraries list also gains A–Z / Z–A / Custom sort.
+- Failed AI-tagging jobs can now be located from the background worker prompt,
+  including a gallery filter for images with failed tags and an expanded list
+  of failed filenames/errors.
+- A new theme system adds Phokus, Subtle Light, and Conventional Dark chrome
+  options across the app.
+- First-run onboarding now includes an inline theme picker so new users can
+  choose their preferred app chrome before continuing the tour.
+
+### Changed
+
+- The gallery grid is now row-virtualised, so very large libraries scroll
+  smoothly and only on-screen thumbnails are rendered.
+- Polished the new theme surfaces before release, including readable
+  subtle-light secondary buttons, failed-worker action buttons, and onboarding
+  controls.
+- Onboarding preview media keeps the dark gallery/media surface regardless of
+  the active chrome theme.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Video embedding jobs are no longer claimed before their thumbnail exists, and
+  any that previously failed for that reason are requeued on startup — videos no
+  longer churn through failed embeddings.
+- Subtle Light theme consistency — the lightbox metadata panel now follows the
+  light chrome while the image canvas stays dark (matching Conventional Dark),
+  and gallery/timeline media badges, duplicate-finder thumbnails, and the window
+  restore icon now theme correctly instead of staying Phokus-dark.
+- Timeline scrolling is now smooth on large libraries — it virtualizes per row
+  of tiles instead of per month, so a month with thousands of photos no longer
+  mounts every tile at once (thumbnails now load in incrementally as you scroll,
+  matching the All Media grid).
+- Background worker updates (thumbnails, metadata, embeddings, tags) no longer
+  re-sort the entire loaded image set on every batch. In Timeline, which loads
+  the whole library, this re-sort caused severe lag and could crash the app
+  during background indexing.

+    Phokus app mark — a camera iris.
+    The hexagon in the middle is the lens OPENING; each blade edge sweeps from a

+
+    Tuning knobs (edit and re-open in any browser/Figma):
+      * opening roundness  -> the "52" radius in the opening <path> arcs.
+          smaller (toward 30) = rounder/softer hole; larger (toward 90) = flatter, sharper.
+      * blade curve         -> the "110" radius in each blade <path>.
+          smaller = more pronounced curve; larger = straighter blade.
+      * blade sweep amount  -> the +40deg baked into the blade endpoint (70.71,-84.27).
+      * curve DIRECTION     -> the final flag in each "A r r 0 0 X" command (0<->1 flips the bow).
+      * weight              -> stroke-width on the <g>.
+      * color               -> stroke on the <g>; swap "#e9e9ec" for currentColor to inherit.

LyAhn	7367845f8b	Merge 0.1.1 QoL fixes github/actions/ci GitHub Actions CI finished: failure Details Post-release quality-of-life work for 0.1.1: - Timeline: right-edge year/month scrubber, full-library load so the scrubber spans everything, and per-row virtualization so dense months scroll smoothly. - Gallery grid row-virtualization; folder reordering (drag + keyboard) with persisted custom order and A-Z/Z-A/Custom sort. - Theme system (Phokus, Subtle Light, Conventional Dark) with an onboarding theme picker, plus subtle-light parity fixes for the lightbox panel, media overlays, duplicate finder, and window controls. - Failed AI-tagging locate/filter from the background worker prompt. - Perf: background media-updated batches no longer re-sort the whole image set. - Video embedding jobs no longer churn through false failures before their thumbnail exists. - Tooling: changelog helper + notes.	2026-06-21 08:48:53 +01:00
LyAhn	50e8bc8e4d	docs: record 0.1.1 QoL fixes in changelog	2026-06-21 08:48:20 +01:00
LyAhn	779a18f56e	fix: use valid end-of-input anchor in changelog-add JS regex has no \z anchor — it matched a literal 'z', so appending to the last section under [Unreleased] silently failed and duplicated the heading. Use $(?![\s\S]) to anchor to true end-of-input.	2026-06-21 08:48:19 +01:00
LyAhn	d027de675b	fix: debounce folder keyboard-reorder persistence Holding Up/Down on a folder's drag handle fired a reorder_folders DB write per keystroke. Update the local order immediately for responsiveness, but debounce the persist (400ms) with cleanup on unmount.	2026-06-21 08:48:18 +01:00
LyAhn	b7cfc9177e	fix: subtle-light theme parity for lightbox panel and media surfaces In subtle-light, the lightbox dragged its whole surface (including the metadata panel) dark via media-dark-surface, while conventional-dark themed the panel normally. Scope the dark surface to the media canvas and re-light the panel by remapping --color-* variables on a .lightbox-panel wrapper (Tailwind v4 resolves every colour utility through these vars, so this re-themes the subtree — including accents — with no !important). Mark gallery/duplicate media tiles as media-dark-surface so their on-image overlays stay light-on-dark, and theme the window restore icon via var(--color-gray-950) instead of a hardcoded hex.	2026-06-21 08:48:05 +01:00
LyAhn	479de76ebb	perf: stop full re-sort on media-updated batches replaceExistingImages re-sorted the entire loaded image array on every media-updated event. Harmless for the ~200-item gallery window, but in Timeline (which loads the whole library) it was an O(n log n) pass many times per second during background indexing — severe lag, occasional crashes. Thumbnail/metadata fills don't change list position (Timeline re-buckets by taken_at separately), so replace records in place and skip the sort; return the same array reference when nothing matched to avoid a wasted re-render.	2026-06-21 08:48:05 +01:00
LyAhn	21f6c30d25	perf: row-virtualize Timeline instead of per-month Each month was a single virtual item that rendered all of its tiles, so scrolling into a busy month mounted thousands of ImageTiles at once. Flatten months into a fixed-height row list (header rows + tile rows of `cols` images), mirroring the Gallery grid, so only on-screen rows render and thumbnails stream in as you scroll. Active-month tracking and scrubber jump-to-month are remapped to the flat row model.	2026-06-21 08:47:48 +01:00

LyAhn	ca58c2ddd4	fix: add failed tag locate and filter controls Add a failed-tag discovery flow for background worker failures. Changes: - Add a Failed Tags toolbar filter that appears when tag failures exist. - Add Locate buttons for failed tag tasks in the background worker prompt. - Route Locate to the affected folder and filter the gallery to images with tagger errors. - Fetch and display failed tag filenames/errors in the expanded worker details. - Add a backend query and gallery filter flag for images with failed AI tagging. - Improve subtle-light contrast for failed worker chips, filenames, and Locate/Retry buttons. - Also slightly increases the title bar update indicator pulse size for better visibility.	2026-06-18 00:36:02 +01:00
LyAhn	c97fec2eb3	fix: improve light theme onboarding controls Make the onboarding tour theme-aware across the app themes, add the first-run theme picker, and keep fake media previews on the dark media surface. Update light-mode secondary controls in onboarding, settings, dropdowns, toolbar controls, and duplicate actions so they no longer render as dark buttons on subtle-light.	2026-06-17 22:07:35 +01:00
LyAhn	9047c8053a	feat: 0.1.1 — timeline scrubber, gallery virtualisation, folder reorder, QoL polish Timeline: - Add a right-edge scrubber (year labels + month dots) that jumps to any period; runs in the same direction as the scrolled content - Load the full filtered set in Timeline view so the scrubber spans the whole library instead of just the first page Gallery & UI: - Virtualise the gallery grid - Folder reordering in the sidebar (drag + persisted sort_order) and a themed dropdown component - Subtle Light theme contrast fixes for toggles, secondary buttons and the update toast Embedding workers now defer video jobs without a thumbnail at claim time and requeue any previously-failed deferred jobs on startup, so videos no longer churn through failed embeddings. QoL polish across BackgroundTasks, DuplicateFinder, Lightbox and VideoPlayer.	2026-06-17 18:37:37 +01:00

LyAhn	ce804f5aa5	chore(gitignore): drop blanket .json ignore, track configs directly CI / check (push) Has been cancelled Details The global .json rule (added for transient ComfyUI workflow dumps) forced git add -f on real configs and hid tauri.conf.json from tauri-action's gitignore-aware globbing. Removed it and the negation workarounds; local-only ignores (e.g. skills-lock.json) live in .git/info/exclude instead.	2026-06-14 20:10:18 +01:00
