- oak-cli info prints project/sequence/footage details; oak-cli render writes PPM frames and a PCM WAV through the facade only - no engine C++ headers, no Qt headers, links just liboakengine - exit code 2 marks rendering-unavailable so ctest can skip cleanly on machines without a GL render backend; info test runs everywhere - facade fix uncovered by the CLI: project load now absolutizes the path, so relative footage paths can't be mistaken for a moved project; the fixture project now carries probed footage wired into its sequence so it renders real content - packaged like the other binaries (Linux bin install, macOS bundle, Windows DLL copies); DESTDIR-verified

Roadmap
| Version | Theme | Core Deliverables | Boundary Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0.3 | Plugin Architecture Milestone | Production-ready OpenFX host support | Not about quantity of plugins, but "any OFX plugin loads without crashing" |
| 0.4 | Color, Audio & Performance | .cube/.3dl support, scopes (waveform/vectorscope/histogram), three-way color wheels, waveform auto-sync, BWF timecode sync, audio meters (LUFS/VU), proxy media workflow, hardware-accelerated export (NVENC/VideoToolbox), batch render queue |
Combines the previous 0.4-0.6 scope into one usability milestone: color workflow, audio sync, and 4K/8K performance |
| 0.5 | Animation, Tracking & Collaboration | Bézier keyframe curve editor, basic point tracking, image stabilizer, full multicam angle switching, OpenTimelineIO, EDL/XML import/export | Combines the previous 0.7-0.8 scope into one timeline/interchange milestone |
| 0.6 | Stability Milestone | Project file format freeze (backward compatibility promise), crash recovery, autosave, memory optimization | "Feature freeze" testing period before 1.0 |
| 1.0 | Production Ready | Complete documentation, installers, known issues list, community support channels | Declared "ready for serious projects" |
