+# Integrating the 3D volume viewer into the MAIN ocdkit viewer
+
+The 3D viewer currently lives as a self-contained page (`viewer/web/volume.html` +
+`js/volume3d*.js` + `raymarch.wgsl`/`overlay.wgsl`). This plans folding it into the
+main viewer app (the `/` page driven by `app.js`).
+
+## Prerequisites — status
+- **three.js-free: CONFIRMED.** No imports / importmap / vendored three.js; the 3D
+  view is pure raw-WebGPU with a quaternion arcball camera (free rotation, pan,
+  dolly). Design spec met; plan keeps it that way.
+- 3D component (`volume3d-gpu.js` + `raymarch.wgsl` + `volume3d-overlays*`),
+  2.5D (`volume3d-view.js`), and decode (`volume3d.js`) are self-contained, consume
+  the `POST /api/volume` bundle, and are headless-tested (wgpu-native + Node +
+  Playwright). Camera incl. pan is done.
+- Backend bundle via the `build_volume_bundle` plugin capability + `POST /api/volume`
+  (intensity uint8, label volume, flow, distance, affinity, trajectories, recon
+  points; lazy/opt-in heavy parts).
+
+## Main viewer structure (mapped)
+- `#viewer` (html/viewer.html:3) holds `<canvas id="canvas">` (2D WebGL2) + brush
+  preview; `assets.py:_get_layout_markup()` assembles fragments into `#app`.
+- File load: `file-navigation.js:requestImageChange()` → `POST /api/open_image` →
+  `app.js:reinitializeForNewImage(config)`. CONFIG carries width/height/
+  imageDataUrl/imagePath/directory. **No volume/3D notion exists yet.**
+- **No view-mode system** (only tool modes). Need a lightweight 2D⇄2.5D⇄3D switch.
+- Per-slice reuse points: `app.js:uploadBaseTextureFromCanvas()` (1396),
+  `reinitializeForNewImage()` (10051), `maskValues` buffer (458), `draw()` (6848),
+  `resizeCanvas()` (7220).
+- Session: `session.py` SessionState + JS CONFIG/state; viewer state persisted to
+  localStorage (`saveViewerState`).
+
+## Recommended architecture
+- **Embed as a view mode, keep raw-WebGPU.** Add a sibling `<canvas id="volumeViewer">`
+  inside `#viewer` (separate element → separate GPU context, avoids the getContext
+  lock), plus a 2D / 2.5D / 3D toggle. Mount the existing `VolumeGPU` on it. The
+  2D mode keeps app.js untouched (no regression).
+- Feature-detect WebGPU; if absent, hide 3D and keep 2D/2.5D (already graceful).
+
+## Decisions (forks) — see questions
+1. **2.5D slice view**: (a) reuse app.js per-slice — feed each z-slice + its mask to
+   the existing 2D WebGL2 renderer so you get the full painting/ncolor/affinity
+   toolset per slice (high value, more integration into the 11k-line app.js); vs
+   (b) embed the standalone canvas2d `volume3d-view.js` (simple, isolated, fewer
+   tools).
+2. **MVP scope**: view-only first (load volume + masks → 2.5D + 3D), with in-app 3D
+   *segmentation* as a later phase; vs include 3D segmentation now.
+3. **Mask source**: existing masks (sidecar/precomputed) + `do_recon` points; vs run
+   3D segmentation in-app (needs the affinity bug fix below).
+
+## Phases
+- **A — Server volume open** (~2–3 d): detect a 3D/multi-page tiff (or `.npz`) in
+  `open_image`; set `config.isVolume` + volume metadata; serve the bundle (reuse
+  `build_volume_bundle`). File navigator already lists files.
+- **B — Embed 3D in the app** (~3–5 d): sibling `#volumeViewer` canvas + view-mode
+  toggle; mount `VolumeGPU`; port the volume.html control panel (mode / density /
+  zScale / image+label layers / shading / overlays / reset) into a main-viewer
+  panel section. Wire resize.
+- **C — 2.5D slice nav** (per decision #1): reuse app.js per-slice (slice slider +
+  per-slice overlays + painting) ~3–5 d, OR embed `volume3d-view.js` ~1–2 d.
+- **D — Polish** (~2–3 d): persist camera/slice/render settings in viewer state;
+  volume-aware file navigator (next/prev volume); status/HUD.
+- **E — Later**: cross-slice painting, saving 3D masks.
+
+## Native 3D segmentation — FIXED (not divergence)
+3D `affinity_seg` crashed for two reasons, both in `omnipose/core/masks.py` (not
+`divergence`, whose batched-torch contract is correct and shared with `loss.py`):
+1. `_get_affinity_torch` is batched-design (`(B,D,*spatial)` → `(S,B,*DIMS)`, with a
+   downstream `.squeeze()` that drops B), but `masks.py` called it with **unbatched**
+   inputs. Fix: add `[None]` (B=1) at the call site.
+2. `flow_error` (flow-QC) called `masks_to_flows_batch` without `dim`, defaulting to
+   `dim=2` on 3D data. Fix: pass `dim=maski.ndim`.
+Verified end-to-end on synthetic + the real spacetime crop (2D + 3D). These edits
+live in the WIP `masks.py` (uncommitted), to be committed with the core refactor.
+
+## Risks
+- app.js is 11k lines — embedding must keep the 2D path byte-identical; 3D is an
+  additive sibling canvas + a view flag.
+- WebGPU only for the 3D mode (feature-detected); 2D/2.5D cover the rest.
+- 3D `affinity_seg` divergence bug blocks in-app 3D segmentation until fixed.
+- One GPU context per canvas (3D canvas is its own element — already the pattern).

+# 3D viewer build — STATUS
+
+Branch `feat/3d-viewer` in both repos (omnipose backend, ocdkit frontend).
+Autonomous build against the plan in `3d_viewer_plan.md`. No push.
+
+## ✅ COMPLETE — P0–P3 implemented, all headless suites green
+Final tally: omnipose pytest 15 · ocdkit pytest 11 (route 4, page 2, raymarch 4,
+overlay 1) · Node 23 (mat4 5, volume3d 13, overlays3d 5) · wgpu-native proof PASS.
+Commits — omnipose: 881d7b2 (single clean backend commit; see note). ocdkit:
+3bd3ef9, a85201c, 5fafa99, abbf156, fba299a, ce5db13, 34d4ffb, 3274413, d77a547.
+Not pushed.
+
+NOTE (omnipose history): the first backend commit accidentally swept in a large
+pre-staged refactor that was already in the index (test renames, networks/*, etc.
+— NOT 3D-viewer work). Fixed by resetting feat/3d-viewer to main and re-committing
+ONLY the 4 viewer files as 881d7b2. Your refactor is fully preserved, just back to
+unstaged working-tree state (`git add` to re-stage). ocdkit commits were unaffected.
+
+ONE thing needs a real-WebGPU browser (you) for final visual confirmation: the
+live WebGPU device render of the 3D volume + overlays. Its shader, camera math,
+and uniform/texture byte-layouts are each individually headless-verified
+(wgpu-native + Node); only the in-browser device path can't run in headless
+Chromium (no adapter). Open the viewer in Chrome/Safari, or use Deno, to confirm.
+To view: serve the viewer and open `/static/volume.html?masks=<path>&raw=<path>`
+(e.g. the spacetime stack), toggle 2.5D⇄3D.
+
+## Legend
+[x] done + headless-tested · [~] in progress · [ ] todo
+
+## P0 — backend dim-generic engine
+- [x] Empirically mapped omnipose 3D core API (masks_to_flows→Result(.mu (3,Z,H,W), .dists), masks_to_affinity/spatial_affinity→(27,Z,H,W), kernel_setup(3)→26 non-centre steps). Script: `ocdkit/outputs/repro/3d_backend/explore_3d_core.py`
+- [x] `omnipose/gui/_volume3d.py` payload engine: kernel_steps, flow_and_dist, affinity_volume, flow_rgb_slices (in-plane 2.5D), rgb_flow_3d (directional), dist_rgb_slices, points_from_p, parse_links, trajectories (centroid tracks + lineage), encode/decode (gzip+b64, label-dtype narrowing), build_bundle, bundle_from_files
+- [x] `Segmenter.build_volume_bundle(...)` delegating method (routes flow solve through the GPU device)
+- [x] pytest `omnipose/tests/test_volume3d.py` — 15 pass incl. real spacetime crop (mask roundtrip exact, flow (3,Z,H,W), affinity (26,Z,H,W), 36 lineage edges, every parent→2 daughters)
+- [ ] (deferred to P1 wiring) `do_3D` widget + segment() volume model-eval path — the GT-mask bundle path covers the test case; model-3D is a later refinement
+
+## P1 — 2.5D slice frontend (existing WebGL2)
+- [x] client logic `viewer/web/js/volume3d.js`: decodeArray (gzip/b64/typed incl float16), volume/rgb slice views, in/through-plane affinity split, affinity slice segments (deduped), points-near-slice, trajectory projection + lineage segments
+- [x] Node CPU-harness `tests/js/volume3d.test.mjs` — 13 pass incl. exact Python->JS cross-language decode (uint8/float16/uint32). Runtimes: node v26 + deno at /opt/homebrew/bin
+- [x] plugin capability `build_volume_bundle` (base.py contract + manifest flag; omnipose ocdkit_plugin.py + Segmenter.build_volume_bundle_from_files) + ocdkit route `POST /api/volume` (routers/volume.py, registered). Tests `tests/test_volume_route.py` — 4 pass incl. end-to-end through the real omnipose plugin on the spacetime stack (133x302x302, 40 labels, 36 lineage edges). Installed httpx + python-multipart for TestClient.
+- [x] DECISION: built a self-contained volume-viewer PAGE (viewer/web/volume.html + js/volume3d-view.js) using volume3d.js, NOT editing the 11k-line app.js. Zero regression risk; one mount point for 2.5D + P2 WebGPU-3D. Existing app.js untouched, so "depth==1 identical" holds trivially.
+- [x] 2.5D slice page: fetch POST /api/volume (or injected __TEST_BUNDLE__), canvas2d slice render (image/flow/distance/mask) + slice slider/wheel/arrow-keys; async gzip decode via DecompressionStream; refactored volume3d.js to expose bytesToTyped/b64ToBytes
+- [x] per-slice overlays (affinity in-plane segments, points-near-z, trajectory projection + lineage dashed)
+- [x] Playwright smoke test `tests/test_volume_page.py` — PASS in headless Chromium: renders non-blank, slices navigate, all 4 layers render, affinity+trajectory overlays draw, no JS errors
+
+## P2 — true-3D volume (raw WebGPU, no three.js)
+- [x] (prereq) headless WGSL ray-march proven via wgpu-native: `ocdkit/outputs/repro/wgpu_raymarch_headless/proof.py`
+- [x] P2a: canonical `viewer/web/js/raymarch.wgsl` (perspective/ortho via invViewProj; MIP/additive/mean; intensity texture_3d<f32> + label texture_3d<u32>; in-shader label colour matching the 2.5D view; density/labelOpacity/showLabels uniforms). Validated by `tests/test_raymarch_wgsl.py` (wgpu-native, loads the EXACT shipped file) — 3 pass: MIP==np.max, mean==np.mean, label colour+blend exact.
+- [x] P2b: pure camera math `viewer/web/js/mat4.js` (column-major, WebGPU [0,1]-depth perspective, lookAt, invert, orbit) — Node-tested `tests/js/mat4.test.mjs` (5 pass: invert∘mat=I, orbit geometry, invViewProj→centre-ray=forward, project/unproject round-trip). Browser host `viewer/web/js/volume3d-gpu.js` (raw WebGPU, no three.js: feature-detect→null, rgba16float display-p3 canvas, orbit camera, r32float intensity + uint label 3D textures with byte layout matching the verified wgpu-native harness, render loop, mode/density/labelOpacity/zScale + drag-orbit/wheel). Perspective integration verified: `tests/test_raymarch_wgsl.py` bridges the shipped mat4.js (via Node emit_camera.mjs) into the shader → centred cube projects to centred pixels (4 wgpu-native tests pass). Live WebGPU device render needs a real browser (user check).
+- [x] P2c: wired into volume.html — second canvas #stage3d (separate context to avoid getContext locking), 2.5D<->3D toggle, MIP/additive/mean buttons + density/zScale/labelOpacity sliders + showLabels (call VolumeGPU methods), shares the decoded bundle (vv.d). Graceful fallback: VolumeGPU.create returns null without a usable adapter -> "WebGPU unavailable", reverts to 2.5D. Playwright test `tests/test_volume_page.py::test_3d_toggle_degrades_or_renders` PASS (headless Chromium has navigator.gpu but no adapter -> verified clean fallback, 2.5D still renders, no JS errors).
+- NOTE: live WebGPU device render is the one piece not headless-verifiable here (bundled Chromium has no adapter). Its shader (P2a) + camera (P2b) + uniform/texture byte-layout (matching the verified wgpu-native harness) are all tested; needs a real-WebGPU browser (Chrome/Safari) or Deno for final visual confirmation.
+
+## P3 — 3D overlays (raw-WebGPU line primitives)
+- [x] P3a: pure builders `viewer/web/js/volume3d-overlays.js` — trajPolylines3D, lineageSegs3D, pointCrosses3D (points as 3D crosses), flowQuiver3D (subsampled, dir-coloured), affinitySegs3D (deduped + decimated with logged cap). All emit line segments in voxel coords + per-vertex colour. Node-tested `tests/js/overlays3d.test.mjs` (5 pass: counts, coords, colour determinism, dedup, cap).
+- [x] P3b: `viewer/web/js/overlay.wgsl` line-list shader (voxel->world via box uniforms -> viewProj, per-vertex colour). wgpu-native test `tests/test_overlay_wgsl.py` (1 pass: known segment -> coloured pixels at expected row/cols).
+- [x] P3c: `viewer/web/js/volume3d-overlays-gpu.js` OverlayLayer (builds GPU buffers from builders, draws into VolumeGPU's render pass sharing the camera). Integrated into volume3d-gpu.js (render computes camera once, draws overlays on top) + decodeBundle now decodes flow.raw. volume.html: 3D overlay checkboxes (trajectories+lineage / points / flow / affinity) -> vgpu.setOverlay. Playwright page tests still pass (no JS errors, graceful degradation).
+
+## Verification channels
+- backend: `python -m pytest omnipose/tests/test_volume3d.py`
+- WGSL: `python ocdkit/outputs/repro/wgpu_raymarch_headless/proof.py`
+- JS logic: Node CPU harness (P1+)
+- browser integration (eventual, needs you): real Chrome / Deno / pywebview

+# 3D segmentation + visualization for the omnipose / ocdkit viewer
+
+Scope + phased implementation plan. Test case: spacetime cells
+`/Volumes/DataDrive/3D_spacetime/linked/a_baylii/dnaA_xy1_crop.tif`
+(133 time-frames × 302 × 302; masks have 40 labels = spacetime tubes;
+`_links.txt` = division lineage, e.g. `1,7 / 1,8` = cell 1 → daughters 7,8).
+
+## Key findings (from code survey)
+
+- **omnipose core is already dimension-generic.** Flows, affinity graph, distance,
+  and Euler-integration points compute as `(dim, *spatial)` for `dim=2` or `3`;
+  `eval.py` already has a `do_3D` path. `kernel_setup(dim)` yields 8 steps (2D) or
+  26 steps (3D).
+- **The two presentation layers are 2D-locked:**
+  - Segmenter `src/omnipose/gui/_segmenter.py` squeezes 3D input to 2D
+    (`arr.mean(axis=-1)`, ~L156), guards affinity on `mask.ndim==2` (~L432),
+    emits `[y,x]` points (~L862).
+  - Frontend `ocdkit/src/ocdkit/viewer/web/app.js` (~11.5k LOC) assumes a single
+    `H×W` plane: 3×3 affine viewport (~L5754), 2D textures, 8-step affinity
+    (~L6065), `[y,x]` points (~L8727).
+- **One genuine gap:** `ocdkit/plot/color.py:rgb_flow` maps `dy + dx·i` to a complex
+  plane → no 3D analog (can't HSV a 3-vector that way).
+- **Two distinct graph objects** for spacetime: the spatial **affinity graph**
+  (26-neighbor voxel connectivity, already in core) and the temporal **lineage /
+  trajectory** (label→label division edges, currently only in the `_links.txt`
+  sidecar — not emitted by the viewer at all).
+
+## Architecture decision (settled)
+
+- **2D / 2.5D slice view:** keep the existing hand-rolled **WebGL2** pipeline in
+  `app.js`, driven by a slice index. When depth==1 it must be byte-identical to
+  today (no regression).
+- **True 3D view:** a NEW, isolated **raw-WebGPU** layer (own canvas), **no
+  three.js.** Rationale: the colormaps repo started on three.js (`js/3d-view.js`)
+  then deliberately replaced it with a hand-rolled raw-WebGPU renderer
+  (`js/webgpu-view.js`, header: *"Replaces Three.js — native P3 HDR support
+  (rgba16float + display-p3)"*) for HDR control; ocdkit's own
+  `plot/web/colormap_image.js` already follows the same "WebGPU(HDR) → WebGL2(SDR)"
+  hand-rolled idiom. Reuse:
+  - **colormaps `js/webgpu-view.js`** — LINE / POINT / THICK_LINE / SURFACE
+    pipelines + `mat4x4 mvp` camera + display-p3 HDR canvas → affinity edges,
+    points, trajectory polylines, bbox/axes, label isosurfaces.
+  - **hostpkg `prototyping/sim3d` ray-march** (AABB slab + MIP/additive/mean +
+    `Data3DTexture`) → the volume. Its TSL needs rewriting to plain WGSL, but the
+    algorithm ports verbatim (already proven, see below).
+- **WebGPU-only for the 3D view is acceptable** (current Chrome/Safari/Edge have
+  WebGPU); a WebGL2 ray-march fallback can be added later if needed. The 2.5D tier
+  covers non-WebGPU browsers.
+
+## Testing strategy (verified)
+
+- **WGSL / pipelines → wgpu-native in Python, headless, no browser.** Proven on
+  this MBP (Apple M5 Max, Metal, `wgpu` 0.31.0): the hostpkg ray-march algorithm
+  ported to raw WGSL renders MIP/mean/emission-absorption from two orthographic
+  directions and matches `np.max` / `np.mean` / `1-prod(1-v)` exactly to fp16
+  (~5e-4). Harness: `outputs/repro/wgpu_raymarch_headless/proof.py`. Extend it for
+  every new WGSL stage (label colormap, blend, streamlines) BEFORE it ships.
+- **JS host logic** (camera matrices, buffer packing, slice indexing, payload
+  decode) → Node CPU-harness pattern (load the real module, call internals on
+  synthetic inputs, diff vs NumPy).
+- **True browser integration** (canvas context-type locking, live EDR headroom):
+  real Google Chrome via Playwright `channel="chrome" --headless=new
+  --enable-unsafe-webgpu`, or Deno (native `navigator.gpu`), or the pywebview
+  launcher for visual HDR checks. Playwright's *bundled* Chromium has no WebGPU.
+
+---
+
+## Phase 0 — Backend goes dimension-generic  (~2–4 days)
+
+Files: `omnipose/src/omnipose/gui/_segmenter.py`, `omnipose/src/omnipose/gui/ocdkit_plugin.py`,
+`ocdkit/src/ocdkit/plot/color.py`.
+
+1. **`ocdkit_plugin.py`:** add a `WidgetSpec` toggle `do_3D` (a.k.a. "Volume / 3D");
+   `_coerce_settings` forwards it. The host viewer surfaces it.
+2. **`segment()`:** when `do_3D`, treat input as `(Z,H,W)` volume — do NOT
+   `mean(axis=-1)`. Thread `dim=3` into `model.eval` (uses the existing `do_3D`
+   path). Distinguish `(H,W,C)` color vs `(Z,H,W)` volume via the explicit flag,
+   not a shape heuristic.
+3. **Cache 3D-shaped products:** `dP (3,Z,H,W)`, `dist (Z,H,W)`,
+   `affinity (26,Z,H,W)`, `p (3,Z,H,W)`, `mask (Z,H,W)`.
+4. **`get_affinity_graph_payload()`:** drop the `mask.ndim != 2` guard; emit
+   `steps (26,3)` + a `dim`/`depth` field. **Do NOT ship the whole 26×Z×H×W array**
+   (~300 MB for the test stack) — provide a **per-slice** endpoint
+   (`affinity(z)`) the frontend requests on demand, plus gzip. (Slice view needs
+   only one z at a time; true-3D affinity is region-on-demand — see P3.)
+5. **`get_points_payload()`:** emit `[z,y,x]` interleaved (3/point) + `dim` field.
+6. **Flow visualization:**
+   - *Cheap, ships in P0:* per-slice in-plane RGB — run existing `rgb_flow` on
+     `dP[1:, z]` (the `(dy,dx)` components) for each z → a depth-stack of PNGs
+     (or a tiled atlas). Emit as a flow volume.
+   - *For true-3D later:* emit the raw `(3,Z,H,W)` flow as a typed-array payload
+     (downsample for size). Add `rgb_flow_3d(dP)` to `color.py` — a directional
+     colormap mapping a unit 3-vector → RGB (e.g. abs-components or a spherical
+     map) for the volumetric flow-color option.
+7. **NEW `get_trajectory_payload()`:** parse the `_links.txt` sidecar when present,
+   else compute. Emit `{ centroids: per-label per-frame [t,y,x],
+   edges: [[parent,daughter],...] }`. This is the "trajectories" overlay.
+8. **Payload sizing:** narrow mask dtype when `max_label` fits (uint8/uint16),
+   gzip volume payloads. Mask `(Z,H,W)` uint32 = ~48 MB raw for the test stack.
+
+Tests: plain pytest on the spacetime tif — assert payload shapes/dtypes. No GPU.
+
+## Phase 1 — 2.5D slice scrolling  (~3–5 days)  ← biggest value/effort ratio
+
+Files: `app.js` (volume data model + slice upload), new `js/volume-nav.js`,
+`html/sidebar.html` / controls (slice slider), css. Existing WebGL2 path only.
+
+1. **Volume data model:** hold image/mask/overlay **volumes** `(Z,H,W)` + `currentZ`
+   + axis label ("t" for spacetime). Decode the new volume payloads. depth==1 →
+   exactly current behavior.
+2. **Slice navigation:** scrollwheel (over canvas), slider, arrow keys, a
+   `z: 12 / 133` readout. On change → re-upload the active slice into the existing
+   2D textures (base, mask RG, outline, flow, distance) + redraw. One H×W upload =
+   cheap.
+3. **Per-slice overlays through the existing renderers:**
+   - Mask: index volume at z → existing Uint32 H×W path; recompute outline per slice
+     (lazy cache).
+   - Affinity: request `affinity(z)`; draw in-plane steps (`dz==0`) as GL_LINES;
+     optionally mark through-plane steps (`dz≠0`) as dots.
+   - Points: filter `[z,y,x]` to `|pz - z| < 0.5` → existing GL_POINTS.
+   - Flow / distance: index the per-slice PNG stack.
+   - Trajectories: project centroid tracks to 2D; draw the polyline up to current t
+     with a marker at frame t (reuse the lines/points overlay).
+4. **No-regression guard:** explicit test that depth==1 output matches current.
+
+Delivers "scroll through the stack and see flow / affinity / points / trajectories"
+on the proven-stable WebGL2 path, with zero WebGPU dependency.
+
+## Phase 2 — True 3D volume view  (~1–2 weeks)
+
+New raw-WebGPU layer (no three.js), under `viewer/web/js/volume3d/`:
+
+- `renderer.js` — adapter/device init (feature-detect WebGPU; hide the 3D toggle if
+  absent), HDR `rgba16float` display-p3 canvas (copy `colormap_image.js` /
+  colormaps `webgpu-view.js`), render loop.
+- `camera.js` — arcball/orbit + perspective `mat4` (port from colormaps
+  `webgpu-view.js`; confirm it has mouse-drag orbit, add if not).
+- `raymarch.wgsl.js` — the proven ported ray-march; MIP / additive / mean selected
+  by uniform; **Z-scale uniform** for time anisotropy.
+
+1. **View-mode toggle** (2.5D ⇄ 3D) mounting/unmounting the 3D canvas over the same
+   viewport region.
+2. **Volumes:** upload raw intensity (`r16float`/`r8`) + a **label volume**
+   (`r8` for ≤255 ids, else `r32uint`) as a second 3D texture; sample both, colormap
+   labels via the existing palette LUT, blend (opacity slider). MIP/additive/mean
+   buttons + density/threshold sliders (mirror hostpkg uniforms).
+3. **Picking:** raycast → first-hit label for hover/highlight (mirror the 2D
+   `labelAt` pattern).
+
+Every WGSL change validated by extending `proof.py` (wgpu-native) before shipping.
+
+## Phase 3 — 3D overlays, incremental  (~1–2 weeks)
+
+Reuse colormaps `webgpu-view.js` LINE / THICK_LINE / POINT / SURFACE pipelines.
+
+- **Trajectories / lineage (do first — highest impact for spacetime):** 3D polylines
+  of per-label centroid tracks along the time axis + division branch points +
+  endpoint markers → the lineage shows as branching tubes. THICK_LINE + POINT.
+- **Points:** 3D scatter of cell sinks `[z,y,x]` → POINT pipeline.
+- **Flow:** start with subsampled 3D quiver (LINE); upgrade to streamlines
+  (integrate the raw 3-vector field → polylines) or a directional-color volume
+  (`rgb_flow_3d`).
+- **Affinity (defer / decimate — the one real perf risk):** 26 steps × ~12M voxels
+  is huge. Options: render on-demand around the hovered cell, a coarse decimated
+  field, or keep affinity slice-only in true-3D. **Log any decimation** (no silent
+  caps).
+- Axes / bbox + time-scale UI.
+
+---
+
+## Cross-cutting risks
+
+- **Memory** (133×302×302 ≈ 12M voxels): raw r16 ≈ 24 MB, label r8 ≈ 12 MB, flow
+  3×f32 ≈ 145 MB (downsample for 3D), **affinity 26× ≈ 300 MB** (keep slice-only /
+  region-on-demand — never ship whole).
+- **Anisotropy:** time axis ≠ space; Z-scale uniform + UI control.
+- **WebGPU availability:** 2.5D works everywhere (WebGL2); 3D needs WebGPU
+  (feature-detected). Optional WebGL2 ray-march fallback later.
+- **No-regression** on the 2D path is a hard requirement.
+
+## Effort + suggested first PR

+# Tile server → out-of-process (design + phasing)
+
+## Problem
+The tileserve HTTP server runs as a **daemon thread inside the Jupyter kernel**
+(`tileserve/server.py`, FastAPI/uvicorn on stable ports 8137–8140). When the
+kernel computes (Run-All), the server thread is GIL-starved, so tile/attach
+fetches stall — surfacing as `SvgFigure hi-res upgrade gave up`, soft tiles, and
+a ~22× TTFB spike under load. Moving serving to its own process removes the GIL
+coupling entirely.
+
+## Current architecture (factual map)
+- **Server**: FastAPI + uvicorn, daemon thread; `ensure_server()` picks a stable
+  port (8137–8140) and blocks until the socket accepts; `_SOURCES: dict[sid,
+  TileSource]` is the registry.
+- **Source data** lives in kernel memory: `TileSource._pyr` (numpy pyramid
+  arrays), `.attachments` (pre-encoded byte blobs), `.meta` (small dicts).
+- **`/tile`** (`server.py` ~321): crop the pyramid array + dtype-convert +
+  `_encode_level` (raw `tobytes()` / jxl / png) — **per-request compute, holds
+  the GIL**. **`/attach`**: returns pre-computed bytes (zero compute). `/info`,
+  `/layout`, `/grid`: dict/HTML assembly.
+- **Production stays in the kernel**: `register_lazy` producers, `ArraySource`/
+  `_RawF16Source.get_bytes` (can touch a Scene via `resolve_linear_p3`) run once
+  in a kernel daemon thread. Only the *repeated serving* is what contends.
+- **Proxy**: `jupyter_ext.py` maps `/ocdkit-tiles/<port>/…` → `127.0.0.1:<port>`;
+  `_ALLOWED_PORTS = {8137..8140}` mirrors `server._STABLE_PORTS`.
+
+## Phase 0 findings (done — this de-risks the rest)
+1. **Domain-decoupled**: serving a tile never calls a live Scene/torch object;
+   all needed data is snapshotted at register/fill/attach time. ✓ feasible.
+2. **Import graph is heavy**: `import ocdkit.tileserve.server` pulls **torch,
+   dask, pandas, scipy, PIL** — NOT because serving needs them, but because
+   `plot/__init__.py:11,14` eagerly does `from .figure import figure` /
+   `from .image_grid import image_grid`. `plot/pyramid.py` itself is torch-free.
+   ⇒ a subprocess that imports the server as-is duplicates torch (~300MB, ~2s).
+3. Importing the server spawns **no threads** and does **not** load FastAPI/
+   uvicorn at import (lazy) — good; the process boundary is clean.
+
+**Consequence**: add an import-decoupling step. Two options:
+- **A (lazy `plot/__init__`)**: convert the eager figure/image_grid imports to
+  `__getattr__` lazy access (the package already uses `enable_submodules`).
+  Speeds up *all* ocdkit imports; risk = call sites that expect eager
+  `ocdkit.plot.figure` at import.
+- **B (move the torch-free bits)**: relocate `pyramid.py` + the jxl/png byte
+  encoders into a torch-free module (e.g. `tileserve/_raster.py`) the server
+  imports directly, bypassing `plot/__init__`. Contained, lower-risk; updates
+  the few `from ..plot.pyramid import` sites.
+- **C (accept torch first)**: ship Phase 1 importing the server as-is (heavy
+  subprocess); the baselined `setup()` pre-warm hides startup. Correctness-
+  complete (serving is off-GIL regardless); optimize imports in 1.5. ← recommended
+  for the first cut, since it fixes the symptom without import surgery.
+
+## Phase 0 findings — host extensions + the RPC surface (also done)
+4. **The child needs host route extensions.** `make_app()` carries the generic
+   routes (`/info /tile /attach /grid`), but hosts mount more via
+   `register_extension(fn)` — e.g. hostpkg's `serve/tiles.py:140`
+   `register_extension(_hostpkg_routes)` adds `/spectra/{sid}/{row}`. The child must
+   register the SAME extensions, so the spawn handshake passes the kernel's list of
+   extension-registering module names (e.g. `['hostpkg.serve.tiles']`); the child
+   imports them before `make_app()`. (Per Option C this also pulls the host's
+   weight — acceptable for the first cut.)
+5. **The RPC/command surface spans BOTH packages — and all of it is snapshot-safe.**
+   The route handlers read from module-global stores populated at register time:
+   `_hostpkg_routes`'s `/spectra` serves from `_SPECTRA` (filled by
+   `register_spectra`), with **no live Scene access at request time** (verified;
+   its docstring notes all domain overlays ride the generic `/attach`). So the
+   data-population functions that must become RPC-to-child are:
+   - ocdkit: `register / register_pending / fill / register_lazy / register_array /
+     attach / drop`
+   - hostpkg (`serve/tiles.py`): `register_spectra / set_spectra_axes /
+     set_panel_axes / set_spectra_data / set_outline / set_cellinfo /
+     set_cell_contours`
+   Generalize as a **command registry**: each package registers its population
+   functions as "child commands"; the kernel-side proxies route them over the
+   control socket; the child applies them to its own stores. `register_lazy`
+   producers still run in the kernel (they need live objects); only their RESULT
+   is pushed.
+
+   Implication: **Phase 1 touches both ocdkit and hostpkg.** It's a well-scoped but
+   substantial cross-package refactor of the data-population path, not a drop-in.
+
+## Target architecture
+A lightweight **child process** runs the same FastAPI app and binds the same
+ports. **Nothing client-side changes** — `embed.py`, `jupyter_ext.py`, the proxy,
+and all baked URLs keep working because the port contract is preserved. The
+kernel becomes a *producer + pusher*; the child is the *server*.
+
+| Concern | Process |
+|---|---|
+| HTTP serving, `/tile` crop+encode, `/attach`, `/info`, `/grid` | Child (off-GIL) |
+| Source construction, lazy producers (Scene/torch), attachment encode | Kernel (once) |
+| `_SOURCES` | Kernel = source of truth; child holds a serving mirror |
+
+### Data transfer
+- **Pyramid arrays** (`_pyr`, tens of MB, served by crop-on-demand): a
+  `multiprocessing.shared_memory` / mmap'd `/dev/shm` buffer — zero-copy. Kernel
+  writes once, sends `{shm_name, shape, dtype, meta}`; child maps + crops +
+  encodes there. (Phase 4: allocate the pyramid *directly* in shm — no copy.)
+- **Attachment bytes** (already small/compressed): over the control channel.
+- **Metadata** (`/info`, `/layout`): JSON over the control channel.
+- **Control channel**: a Unix-domain socket; kernel→child commands
+  `register / fill / attach / lazy_result / evict`, mirroring `server.py`'s API.
+
+### Lifecycle
+- `ensure_server()` spawns the child (daemon, dies with the kernel) + handshakes
+  the control socket; `reset_server()` kills + respawns.
+- Open decisions: (a) adopt an existing child across kernel restarts vs. spawn
+  fresh; (b) shm cleanup on source evict + on exit (resource_tracker quirks);
+  (c) child-crash → respawn + kernel re-pushes live sources (kernel is the truth).
+
+## Phasing (each independently shippable)
+- **Phase 0 — DONE**: feasibility audit (above). Lock the kernel↔server API
+  surface (`register_pending/fill/register_lazy/attach/get_source/evict`).
+- **Phase 1**: extract the FastAPI app into a standalone entry
+  (`python -m ocdkit.tileserve._server_proc`) driven by a control socket;
+  push data **by value** (socket copy) to prove the boundary. Use option **C**
+  (accept heavy imports) — this alone kills the GIL contention. `TileSource`
+  becomes a thin client; `ensure_server`/`reset_server` manage the child.
+- **Phase 1.5**: import decoupling (option **A** or **B**) → light child.
+- **Phase 2**: swap array transfer to shared memory (zero-copy).
+- **Phase 3**: lifecycle hardening (crash respawn, shm cleanup, restart adoption,
+  Windows `spawn` + shm naming).
+- **Phase 4**: allocate pyramids directly in shm (drop the copy).
+
+Phase 1 resolves the user-visible symptom; 1.5–4 are perf/robustness.
+
+## Verification
+Re-run the original GIL-starvation harnesses (`outputs/repro/server_ttfb_
+contention.py`, `contention_harness.py`) with a GIL-holding kernel loop and
+confirm TTFB stays flat (was 0.6→13ms under load). Add a child-crash/respawn
+test in Phase 3.
+
+## Alternatives rejected
+- **Sub-interpreters (PEP 684)**: uvicorn/FastAPI aren't sub-interpreter-safe;
+  cross-interpreter array sharing is restricted. Too immature.
+- **Release the GIL in the encoder only**: the uvicorn loop + routing is still
+  Python and contends — partial fix.
