* Agent chat prototype: drive an ACP agent the user already has from a side panel
A desktop-only chat panel (off by default) that starts a coding agent over the
Agent Client Protocol and gives it SolidCraft's MCP server, bridged to the open
window through the token-protected control channel with the default folder
limits. It finds installed agents (Claude Code and Codex adapters, Gemini CLI,
Copilot, Qwen, OpenCode, goose) with version and login state, streams text,
tool calls and plans, shows the agent's permission requests, and when an agent
isn't signed in shows its own login methods without handling any credential.
Design notes and findings: docs/design/in-app-agent-chat.md.

* Render preview uses the shared camera navigation
The Render workspace's product preview had its own hard-coded camera
controls. Camera input now lives in one component, navigation::handle,
which the modelling viewport and the Render preview both call (NavCaps:
orbit, pick). Render gets the navigation preset, Orbit around, zoom to the
cursor, the middle double-click and the axis view or navigation cube.
Flat pages can call it with orbit off. A test rejects pages that read the
wheel or move the camera themselves.
Fixes#1454

One docked Save as mesh dialog replaces Export STL / 3MF / 3MF with face tags, with an optional Send to slicer that lists the slicers installed on this machine. Engine: file.save_mesh and file.slicers; the Convert Mesh dialog goes (mesh.convert and the MeshConvert feature stay, so existing designs open). Strings in all catalogs; screenshots in the PR. Checked on main + this branch: cargo check --workspace, the engine slicer/mesh/file tests, the UI catalog and menu tests and scenario s14 (the one local colour-token failure is epaint's TexturesDelta panic, which main shows on this machine too).
* Optional supersampling (SSAA) for the viewport, adaptive and within the texture limit (#1288)
Preferences ▸ Graphics ▸ Supersampling: Off (default), 1.5× or 2×. The frame is drawn into
textures of the viewport's own kind (format, depth/stencil, MSAA) at that multiple of its pixels,
over transparent black, then filtered down into the viewport with four bilinear taps (the exact
2 × 2 box at 2×) and composited premultiplied over the background. Lines keep their on-screen
width; silhouettes and edges come out smoother.
Adaptive (on by default): the view is drawn at full speed while the camera moves and
supersampled once it has held still for a quarter of a second.
The supersampled size stays within the device's largest texture side (#869) and a 384 MiB
budget for colour and depth (MSAA samples included); under 1.25× is not worth it and the frame
is drawn as usual.
Labels in en/de/ja/ko/zh; `ui.prefs` `supersampling` and `supersampling_adaptive`.

* Preferences ▸ Graphics ▸ Display quality: Coarse, Normal, Fine, Ultra (#1287)
A viewing preference that sets how finely the viewport tessellates curved faces and edges:
chord tolerance relative to each body's size (3e-3, 1e-3, 3e-4, 1e-4) and the most a facet may
turn (30, 20, 12, 7 degrees). Normal is the tolerance the viewport has always used.
Bodies keep a display plan per level, so switching is a re-plan the first time and instant
after; the reference mesh the model reads (picks, holes, measuring) and exports are unchanged.
Away from Normal the model scene builds edges, and faces on the CPU path, from the plan at that
level, so silhouettes and edges get finer with the faces and a highlight still lies on the
displayed triangles.
The preference is saved with the others, set over the control channel (`ui.prefs`
`display_quality`), labelled in en/de/ja/ko/zh. `solidcraft-cli bench-open --display LEVEL
[--edit NAME EXPR]` times the plans at a level and after a parameter edit.

An opt-in Touchpad navigation preset: Shift + pointer motion pans, Alt/Option + motion orbits, vertical scroll zooms, all without a mouse button. Existing presets are unchanged; view.navigate gains continuous motion for the control channel and scenarios.
Adds a French catalog as a partial locale (missing strings fall back to English, like Russian), registered in the language list, with tests and attribution.
Colour vision modes (Protan, Deutan, Tritan) in Preferences > Graphics, with palettes, shader and icon colours adapted per mode, translations and tests.
* Windows: start Direct3D 12 first, and Vulkan only without a D3D12 GPU
wgpu started Vulkan, D3D12 and OpenGL together and preferred Vulkan, so
every Windows start loaded all installed Vulkan drivers. An old Intel
Vulkan driver (igvk64.dll) crashed 0.10.1 at startup inside the driver.
The app now probes D3D12, then Vulkan, then OpenGL, one backend at a
time, and starts only the first with a hardware adapter (WARP when none
has one). WGPU_BACKEND still wins; graphics.json's "backend" sets the
order by hand; the software renderer (safe mode, the retry) uses D3D12
alone. A new Windows CI job starts the real app under several settings.

Startup no longer stops at a bad settings file or a missing GPU: a settings file that fails to load is set aside, a failed GPU start retries with the software renderer, and a safe mode starts with defaults. Adds a troubleshooting page to the guide.
At start, and at most once a day, a background thread asks GitHub for the latest stable
release (one HTTPS GET to releases/latest, nothing else sent; 15 s timeout; silent when
offline; GitHub's rate limit respected). When it is newer than this build, an Update button
appears next to Report a bug. It opens a window with the version, the release notes and
Download (the asset that fits this installation), Skip this version and Remind me later.
- Versions compare as semver; a nightly counts as the release it was built after, so it is
offered only a newer stable release.
- The installation is detected (AppImage, Flatpak, Snap from the store or a file, deb, rpm,
tar.gz, Windows MSI/portable/exe, macOS app); Download picks the fixed-name asset.
Development builds and the Flatpak (no network permission) never check.
- Preferences > General > Updates: Check for updates automatically (on) and Check now.
- HTTP via ureq + rustls with the operating system's certificates (desktop app only).

Completes the Japanese catalog (all commands, panels, dialogs and preferences) and routes the remaining hard-coded UI labels through the translation lookup. English stays the default.
The feature history can sit in a panel on the left, with folders that hold one unbroken run of features, drag and drop as one undo step, and a resizable divider. Timeline folders save under format 17.
Home, Fit, the orbit pivot and the scene's depth range counted sketches the view doesn't draw (ones used by an extrude or revolve, ones in hidden components), so after a body moved away from its sketch Home framed the empty spot it came from. They now use the world-space bounds of what is shown now (view::visible_bounds / view::sketch_drawn, viewport::view_bounds). The pick-box cache holds its world state instead of its address. A middle-button double-click goes Home in every preset (Preferences › Navigation: Home, Fit or Off).

Fixes#478. Desktop Ctrl/Cmd +/-/0 now update the saved UI scale instead of flashing back, and the Preferences scale slider applies the new layout on release (range 50-250%, matching the preference validation). Addresses the drag jitter in #272.
A left press with Ctrl (or Cmd) held, no Shift or Alt, on empty space orbits
for that press, unless the preset binds Ctrl+left itself. It only orbits
once the pointer moves: a Ctrl+click still adds to the selection, and
Ctrl+drag on sketch geometry still drags it without snapping. Works with a
tool active, without adding geometry. Ctrl+box selection from empty space
becomes the orbit; Shift+box selection still adds.
Preferences › Navigation and the UI tour mention it. Test drives every
preset through real pointer events.

With "Orbit around: Point under the cursor", a drag that starts over
empty space used to pivot on the point under the cursor at the target's
depth, so an orbit begun near the edge of the view swung the model
around an off-screen point. It now pivots on the centre of the visible
bodies and sketches (the same bounds Fit frames), or on the view centre
when nothing is visible. A drag that starts on the model is unchanged.

Two-finger scroll pans the model instead of zooming; pinch-to-zoom
zooms toward the cursor and honors reverse zoom. Trackpad scrolls
arrive bracketed (Start..End, momentum included) while mouse wheels
send bare moves, so phases tell them apart: bracketed gestures pan,
bare vertical input zooms and bare horizontal input pans (thumb wheel).
Mouse line/page input keeps zooming, and ui.scroll now sends line
input so scripts and agents are unaffected. New Navigation preference
'Two-finger scroll pans' (default on) restores the old behaviour
when off.
Choosing 8x anti-aliasing in Preferences › Graphics on a device that
only allows 1x and 4x for the window's format made every later start
panic in wgpu's pipeline validation (`Sample count 8 is not supported
by format Bgra8Unorm on this device`), so the app could not be opened
again without editing graphics.json by hand.
- egui-wgpu (vendored): request TEXTURE_ADAPTER_SPECIFIC_FORMAT_FEATURES
when the adapter has it (WebGPU only guarantees 1x and 4x), and clamp
the sample count to the largest one the device supports for both the
colour target and the depth/stencil format. The supported counts are
exposed as `RenderState::msaa_supported`.
- At start, a saved count the device can't do goes back to the default
(4x, or the largest supported count below it), is written back, and a
"Settings were changed" notice says what changed.
- The Anti-aliasing list greys out unsupported counts, `ui.prefs`
rejects them, and an invalid saved `msaa` loads as the default.
- New messages translated in en, de, ja and ko.

Navigation presets are now a table of bindings (button, required modifier
keys, camera mode) instead of string matches. The Alias preset binds
Shift+Alt+left to orbit, Shift+Alt+middle to pan and Shift+Alt+right to
zoom. A left press with a binding's keys is latched until release, so that
drag neither box-selects nor drags sketch geometry; plain left drags behave
as before. Shift only requests snapping when the binding without Shift
still orbits.
The scenario harness sends Alt with ui.drag/ui.click, and camera checks can
assert panned/zoomed since the last camera step. The user guide notes Alt+drag
grabs by KDE and GNOME and how to free them.

* Honor design units in sketch dimensions and measurements
* fix: apply document units to specialized length controls
* Accept explicit units in length fields; document design-unit dimension values
Length fields in a design-unit control now evaluate what is typed as a
length expression: a bare number stays in the design's units, while an
explicit unit ("10 mm", "0.5 in", "1 in + 5 mm") is converted.
Document that a bare numeric sketch.dimension value from scripts, the
control channel or MCP is read in the design's units.

- The dialog draws every page into a fixed, clipped 744x400 area, so no page
(or translation) changes the window width; descriptions wrap and tall pages
scroll inside it.
- OK / Cancel / Apply sit flush right in the bottom bar (right-to-left layout
within the fixed width); Restore Defaults stays left.
- The "settings" icon is a gear: a solid ring with six square-ish teeth and a
see-through centre hole, instead of the sun-like rays.
- Scenario s46 visits every page and checks the window keeps its width and
that Apply ends at the bottom bar's right edge (new `same_width` and
`right_edge` scenario checks).
