- CI: push/PR to main only; ubuntu/macos-15-arm64/windows-ucrt64 matrix; deps via tooling/install-deps.sh; project FFmpeg built once and cached under .cache/ffmpeg keyed on the build script; rust-cache for target/ - CD: tag v* packages with cargo-packager — deb/AppImage/pacman on Linux (rpm converted from the deb with fpm), NSIS on Windows, and a DMG (Apple Silicon) whose .app embeds liboakengine.dylib via install_name_tool; tag pushes publish a GitHub release with all packages attached - root Cargo.toml gains [package.metadata.packager]; the app icon is generated from Oak_Icon.svg with rsvg-convert in CI - root build.rs now also links the app on Linux (link-search + rpath + --export-dynamic); Windows remains blocked on the DLL undefined-symbol problem (oakcore_* host imports), documented in build.rs

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" |
