What changed

This is the context-paint capability rung in the Web consolidation checklist loop.

  • ratifies resolve-before-rframe: context-fill and context-stroke are producer-side relationships, while the frame keeps only the eventual source-free no-paint, solid, linear-gradient, or radial-gradient fact
  • resolves both context keywords recursively through <use>, preserving the eventual owner's color, URL, coordinate space, and reference box while leaving opacity and stroke geometry at the destination
  • premeasures complete use-instance geometry and rebases object-bounding-box and user-space gradients without leaking context or box provenance through the frame seam
  • retains named refusals for the non-standard context-plus-fallback parser extension, patterns, external paint resources, marker context, and author CSS across a use-shadow boundary
  • adds 22 Chromium-baked context-paint cells and keeps the refusal register at 56 by graduating the former context-paint refusal and replacing it with the parser-extension refusal
  • ticks the CSS fill/stroke rows and their SVG presentation-attribute twins

Measured verdict

Three scratch matrices against Chromium 149.0.7827.55 measured the complete capability before implementation:

  • 102 captures cover no-context no-paint, all four fill/stroke crossings in attribute and inline-CSS spellings, none, currentColor, alpha and opacity ownership, inheritance, recursion, independent instances, URL fallback, both gradient kinds and units, ultimate-owner anchoring, and geometry-box participation
  • a 54-capture coordinate follow-up proves every nested <use> x/y translation moves the selected paint exactly once, while an immediate URL owner's object box is measured before its own x/y
  • a 19-capture transform follow-up proves Chromium uses transformed local AABBs for context boxes and paints nothing through singular destination transforms

The committed matrix contains 22 discriminating cells with no tolerance blocks. The corpus grows from 255 to 277 cells, and every new cell renders byte-exactly through websem → rframe → n0 against Chromium. The standard-invalid fallback tail is outside the SVG standard-track <paint> grammar; own-row resource gaps remain carried by their existing checklist rows.

Verification

  • cargo fmt --all -- --check
  • cargo check -p websem
  • cargo clippy -p websem --lib --no-deps -- -D warnings
  • cargo test -p websem --tests
  • cargo test -p rframe -p n0 -p n0_cli
  • cd fixtures/web-first && just bake
  • cd fixtures/web-first && just gate
  • cd fixtures/web-first && just status
  • all three Chromium probe matrices rerun deterministically
  • all 22 new fixtures independently rendered through the n0 CLI and decoded RGBA matched their Chromium oracles exactly
  • the saved two-role verify-rung ritual passed after correcting one overprecise README adjective

This advances #43. It is a capability verdict only: no conformance score was produced and no FLIP action was taken.

Review Change Stack

Walkthrough

The SVG compiler now resolves context-fill and context-stroke through nested <use> contexts. It rebases supported gradients, measures context geometry, preserves refusal boundaries, and adds contract and fixture coverage.

Changes

SVG context-paint support

Layer / File(s) Summary
Paint-server classification and frame boundary
crates/websem/src/svg_paint_server.rs, crates/rframe/README.md, crates/rframe/tests/architecture.rs
Paint servers classify gradients, patterns, and other elements. Gradient resolution uses destination geometry and deferred reference-space mappings. Frame contracts exclude unresolved context-paint relationships.
Use-context geometry and traversal
crates/websem/src/svg.rs
The compiler measures <use> geometry and propagates nested paint contexts, transforms, and reference boxes through SVG traversal.
Context paint selection and rendering
crates/websem/src/svg.rs
Fill and stroke resolution recursively selects context paints, retains the eventual owner style, and rebases solid and gradient paints.
Context-paint contract validation
crates/websem/tests/context_paint_contract.rs, crates/websem/tests/visibility_contract.rs, crates/websem/tests/unsupported_corpus.rs
Tests cover context selection, nested ownership, gradients, visibility, transforms, degenerate paints, refusals, and best-effort degradation.
Corpus and admitted-slice updates
crates/n0_cli/README.md, docs/wg/consolidation/*, fixtures/web-first/*
Documentation and generated fixture data record 22 context-paint cells and the retained refusal cases.

Estimated code review effort: 5 (Critical) | ~120 minutes

Mergeability Score: 🔵 Low · up to a5d61

Zero-area context-painted shapes may produce invalid gradient transforms and incorrect rendering before stroke suppression. The change is otherwise mergeable, but the owner should address or explicitly accept this bounded edge-case risk.

889-950: 🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Return ResolvedPaintServer::Nothing for zero-extent destination boxes. Zero-area <rect>, <circle>, and <ellipse> elements still resolve their fill before stroke rendering is disabled. Context paints can therefore reach resolve_linear and resolve_radial with a zero-extent destination_box. The non-direct ObjectBoundingBox and every UserSpaceOnUse branch then call box_inverse, which creates non-finite matrix values. Guard destination_box in both resolvers and add linear and radial context-paint coverage.

Extract the prepass skip predicate into one helper.

The same six-way skip test appears at Lines 1676-1682 and again at Lines 1736-1742 in measure_subtree_geometry. The two walkers must agree on this set, or one prepass measures geometry the other prunes. A shared fn is_geometry_prepass_skipped(tag: &str) -> bool keeps them in sync.

/// Elements that contribute no geometry to a context reference box:
/// non-rendering and animation elements, plus the reference-only
/// paint-resource containers.

    is_non_rendering_element(tag)
        || is_animation_element(tag)

2813-2824: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | ⚖️ Poor tradeoff

Consider grouping the paint-resolution inputs into one struct.

compile_shape now takes two AffineTransform parameters (inherited and context_paint_inherited) plus servers, paint_contexts, values, bases, and fonts, and forwards all of them positionally to eight shape compilers. Two same-typed transforms in adjacent positions can be transposed without a compile error. I traced every dispatch arm and the order is correct today, but the surface is fragile for future edits.

A small struct PaintResolution<'a> { servers, paint_contexts, values, bases, fonts } plus a named transform pair would remove the positional risk and shorten all eight arms.

Assert the no-paint result in both admissions.

The hidden case uses admit_both, which also proves that best-effort declares nothing static. The rendering case now checks strict only. Nothing here asserts that a context paint without a context stays a silent measured nothing under best-effort, so a regression that turned it into a declared degradation would still pass.

Share one classification path between classify and resolve.

classify and resolve repeat the same three-way Server match and the same two refusal strings verbatim. classify already gates every resolve call in crates/websem/src/svg.rs (Line 4113), so the Pattern, Other, and !inside_compiled_svg arms inside resolve are unreachable from that caller. Duplicated literal refusal text can drift, and the corpus gate matches on that text.

Consider making resolve call classify first, or extracting the message construction into one private helper that both use.
