v2.64.0

• 2.64.0 — 🏷️ Photo tagging & attribution. Photos can be tagged
  and linked: tags (array), notes, and container_id are writable on
  PATCH /api/album-images/{id} and POST /api/album-images/bulk-assign
  without disturbing plant/seed-packet links, plus a ?tag= filter (exact
  token, case-insensitive) and GET /api/album-images/vocabulary with the
  seeded 10-tag vocabulary. Match page gains tag checkboxes, a notes field,
  a container picker, and tag chips; the slideshow shows chips + notes.
  Also: container POST honours grid_x/grid_y (422 on overlap); plants
  gain a Culled status + status_changed_at; observations allow an unset
  health_scale; pests gain severity + auto-stamped resolved date; Photos
  page warns on duplicate album names; Immich gains sync-all with
  last_synced_at per album and the batch import resolves the local album
  by source when album_id is omitted. Planner L/U shapes and the
  plant-row suggestion screen are deferred (see the PR description).

v2.63.0

• 2.63.0 — A gardener walks your 3D garden. Walk mode grew a
  third-person character: a warm clay-tinted Quaternius figure (CC0, 8 real
  animation clips) in a procedural straw hat, ~5.5ft tall, strolling the
  diorama with an over-the-shoulder follow camera. V toggles first-person
  ↔ third-person (the character hides in first person), Space jumps with
  light custom physics, and F tends the nearest bed within range: the
  Working clip plays, then thirsty beds get a blue water-particle arc (posted
  to the real watering-log API), harvest-ready crops pop with a floating
  "+N crop" sprite (posted to the real harvests API), otherwise a friendly
  "nothing needed here" toast. Idle/Walk/Run crossfade with movement, the
  character faces its walk direction, and the same smooth accel/damping +
  wall-slide collision moves it — it can't walk through beds. Day/night
  lighting tints it like everything else.

v2.62.0

• 2.62.0 — Real 3D models in the planner + first-person fixes. The
  diorama now uses 53 curated CC0 models (Kenney Nature Kit, Quaternius):
  wooden picket fences (auto-joining runs, L-corners, gates), stone path
  tiles, hexagonal planters, an oak fruit tree, and — the big one — real
  crop plants that grow through the season: corn goes seedling→mature over
  four stages picked from each planting's dates, carrots/melons/pumpkins/
  turnips/leafy greens/grains get their own models, and harvest-ready
  plantings show the actual produce (tomato, carrot, corn, pumpkin, pepper)
  on the bed. Planted beds get a garden-sign name stake plus a little
  deterministic corner decor (bushes, flowers, rocks, mushrooms). Every model
  falls back to the procedural version if it ever fails to load.
  Cattle-panel arch rebuilt the way real panels work: long tunnels are now
  a series of ~4ft panel arches with small gaps (not one stretched tube), and
  the wire mesh is finer — walking through one in first person finally reads
  right. Walk mode decluttered: floating name labels are orbit-only now;
  in first person you get just the label of whatever's under your crosshair
  within ~10ft. Movement is smooth (velocity accel/damping, wall sliding
  without hard stops or lunge), the look control has a sane sensitivity, and
  there's a ⛶ fullscreen toggle for the 3D view (Esc exits).
  Archway asset scout: no fitting CC0 archway turned up (castle-kit pieces
  are externally textured and stylistically wrong), so none were forced in.

v2.61.0

• 2.61.0 — Creative-mode building in the planner, reskinned as a soft
  miniature diorama. Walk mode grew a hotbar: 22 slots across three rows
  (8/8/6) — 16 BLOCKS (bed, bag, pot, planter, pallet, arch, cold frame,
  lamp, fence, bucket, path, rain barrel, compost bin, hoop house, fence gate,
  bird bath) and 6 PLANTS (tomato, pepper, basil, lettuce, carrot, flower),
  all infinite. Left-click breaks the aimed planting or container —
  breaking a container that holds plantings asks for confirmation first, and
  the ground itself can't be broken. Right-click places the selected item
  on the aimed grass cells with a green/red ghost preview (per-kind
  footprints: the hoop house is 4×8, the shed 4×6), or plants the selected
  seedling into the aimed container. Q switches tabs, 1–9/wheel picks
  slots, E edits the aimed container. Everything goes through the real
  API; the 3D scene refreshes after each change without leaving first person.
  The whole 3D view is now smooth-shaded and softly textured (64px
  LinearFilter canvas textures, MeshStandardMaterial) — no more blocky voxels:
  rounded foliage blobs with real fruit spheres, smooth torus-arc trellises,
  tapered terracotta pots, gabled shed roofs, and soft sphere-clouds.
  World dressing: ☀️/🌙 day/night toggle (gradient sky shader with drifting
  clouds, starfield and glowing lamps at night), plus new placeables — 💡
  lamp posts (real point lights at night, capped at 8 for perf), ⛓️
  chain-link fence (segments auto-connect into runs), 🪣 5-gal buckets,
  🪨 stone path slabs (flat enough to walk over), 🛢️ rain barrels,
  🟤 compost bins, 🏠 hoop houses (translucent plastic skin over
  smooth ribs), 🚪 fence gates (mesh into adjacent fence runs),
  🐦 bird baths, 🌳 fruit trees (round canopy + apple spheres),
  🏚️ garden sheds (4×6, solid), 🏛️ pergolas (2×4, walk-under),
  🧱 stone edging (auto-connecting low walls), 💦 sprinklers (smooth
  water arcs), and 💧 drip lines (auto-connecting ground tubes). Graphics
  pass: bloom postprocessing (lamps, sun and fireflies glow), **tall grass
  • wildflowers** scattered on empty cells (seeded, stable across rebuilds),
    fireflies (40 points, night only), warmer sun + tuned hemisphere light.
    Lively pass: saturated palette (rich grass, warm wood, punchy terracotta),
    denser grass tufts clustered near beds, fuller plant clusters with vivid
    fruit, butterflies (8, day only — flapping wings, wandering paths),
    shed with steep gabled roof + window, thicker arch ribs.
    Planning tools: 📏 measuring tape in orbit mode —
    click two ground points for a live "12.5 ft" readout (ESC clears). Game
    feel: particle bursts when things break and tiny WebAudio place/break
    sounds (🔊 toggle, default on).

v2.60.0

• 2.60.0 — ⛏️ The planner goes Minecraft. The 3D view is now a voxel
  world: 16×16 pixel textures with crisp NearestFilter rendering, grass-block
  ground with dirt sides, plank-sided raised beds, terracotta pots, fabric
  grow bags, a voxel trellis for arches, blocky clouds, and cross-quad pixel
  plants per species (tomatoes grow tiny red fruit). Plus 🚶 Walk mode:
  first-person strolling with WASD + mouse, Shift to sprint, collision with
  beds (but you can walk under arches), click-to-edit from the crosshair.

v2.59.4

• 2.59.4 — 🔑 Scoped API tokens. Outside programs (like a local
  assistant on the same PC) can now use Verdant's API with a bearer token
  instead of poking the database directly. Create one on the Settings page
  with exactly the scopes it needs (*, read, or per-domain write
  scopes); the secret is shown once and only its hash is stored. Requests
  without a token work exactly as before — the web UI is untouched.

v2.59.3

• 2.59.3 — ⚡ Scale-audit performance fixes. A simulated commercial
  grow (2,800 plants, 40,000 logs, 500 seed packets) found the Plants page
  taking 104s and the Costs page 22s to load. Fixed: a reminders-endpoint
  N+1 (82.7s → 0.25s, output verified byte-identical), a per-card cover-photo
  request storm (one bulk /api/plants/covers call now), half a million
  eagerly-rendered packet checkboxes on the Costs page (now built lazily on
  open), and ~2,200 per-row packet-link requests (bulk endpoints). Plants
  loads in ~8s, Costs in ~8s. Everything else scaled fine.
