0c2d24c3f6 PowerToys Extension: Use project build because we don't need packagereference (#46080) 
<!-- Enter a brief description/summary of your PR here. What does it
fix/what does it change/how was it tested (even manually, if necessary)?
-->
## Summary of the Pull Request
At first version, tried to use the project reference instead of package
reference, while it did not work in my local environment, so used
package reference instead.

While planned to project reference for many reasons like first day
problem explosure in sdk, maintain the strict consistent winmd with the
extension host.

Hopefully to solve some of the extension not starting problem.

eeeb6c0c93 feat(winmd-api-search): add WinMD cache generator script and related files (#45606) 
<!-- Enter a brief description/summary of your PR here. What does it
fix/what does it change/how was it tested (even manually, if necessary)?
-->
## Summary of the Pull Request

Adds a new Copilot agent skill (`winmd-api-search`) that lets AI agents
discover and explore Windows desktop APIs by searching a local cache of
WinMD metadata. The skill covers Windows Platform SDK, WinAppSDK/WinUI,
NuGet package WinMDs, and project-output WinMDs — providing full API
surface details (types, members, enumeration values, namespaces) without
needing external documentation lookups.

**Key components:**

- `.github/skills/winmd-api-search/SKILL.md` — Skill definition with
usage instructions, search/detail workflows, and scoring guidance
- `scripts/Invoke-WinMdQuery.ps1` — PowerShell query engine supporting
actions: `search`, `type`, `members`, `enums`, `namespaces`, `stats`,
`projects`
- `scripts/Update-WinMdCache.ps1` — Orchestrator that builds the C#
cache generator, discovers project files, and runs the generator
- `scripts/cache-generator/CacheGenerator.csproj` + `Program.cs` — .NET
console app using `System.Reflection.Metadata` to parse WinMD files from
NuGet packages, project references, Windows SDK, and packages.config
into per-package JSON caches
- `scripts/cache-generator/Directory.Build.props`,
`Directory.Build.targets`, `Directory.Packages.props` — Empty isolation
files to prevent repo-level Central Package Management and build targets
from interfering with this standalone tool

<!-- Please review the items on the PR checklist before submitting-->
## PR Checklist

- [ ] Closes: #xxx <!-- Replace with issue number if applicable -->
- [x] **Communication:** I've discussed this with core contributors
already. If the work hasn't been agreed, this work might be rejected
- [ ] **Tests:** Added/updated and all pass — N/A: This is an offline
agent skill (PowerShell + standalone .NET tool) with no integration into
the main product build or runtime. Validated manually by running the
cache generator across multiple project contexts (ColorPickerUI,
CmdPal.UI, runner, ImageResizer, etc.) and exercising all query actions.
- [ ] **Localization:** All end-user-facing strings can be localized —
N/A: No end-user-facing strings; this is an internal developer/agent
tool
- [ ] **Dev docs:** Added/updated — The SKILL.md itself serves as the
documentation
- [ ] **New binaries:** Added on the required places — N/A: The cache
generator is a standalone dev-time tool, not shipped in the installer
- [ ] **Documentation updated:** If checked, please file a pull request
on [our docs

and link it here: N/A

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments

### Cache Generator (`Program.cs`, ~1000 lines)

A self-contained .NET console app that:

1. **Discovers WinMD sources** from four channels:
   - `project.assets.json` (PackageReference — modern .csproj/.vcxproj)
   - `packages.config` (legacy NuGet format)
- `<ProjectReference>` bin/ output (class libraries producing `.winmd`)
   - Windows SDK `UnionMetadata/` (highest installed version)

2. **Parses WinMD files** using `System.Reflection.Metadata` /
`PEReader` to extract:
- Types (classes, structs, interfaces, enums, delegates) with full
namespace
- Members (methods with decoded signatures/parameters, properties with
accessors, events)
   - Enum values
   - Base types and type kinds

3. **Outputs per-package JSON** under `Generated Files/winmd-cache/`:
- `packages/<Id>/<Version>/meta.json` — package summary
(type/member/namespace counts)
   - `packages/<Id>/<Version>/namespaces.json` — ordered namespace list
- `packages/<Id>/<Version>/types/<Namespace>.json` — full type detail
per namespace
- `projects/<ProjectName>.json` — maps each project to its package set

4. **Deduplicates** at the package level — if a package+version is
already cached, it's skipped on subsequent runs.

### Build Isolation

Three empty MSBuild files (`Directory.Build.props`,
`Directory.Build.targets`, `Directory.Packages.props`) in the
cache-generator folder prevent the repo's Central Package Management and
shared build configuration from interfering with this standalone tool.

### Query Engine (`Invoke-WinMdQuery.ps1`)

Supports seven actions: `search` (fuzzy text search across
types/members), `type` (full detail for a specific type), `members`
(filtered members of a type), `enums` (enumeration values), `namespaces`
(list all namespaces), `stats` (cache statistics), and `projects` (list
cached projects with their packages).

<!-- Describe how you validated the behavior. Add automated tests
wherever possible, but list manual validation steps taken as well -->
## Validation Steps Performed

1. **Cache generation:** Ran `Update-WinMdCache.ps1` across 310+ project
files in the repo — 8 packages parsed, 316 reused from cache, all
completed without errors
2. **Query testing on multiple projects:**
   - `ColorPickerUI` — verified Windows SDK baseline (7,023 types)
- `Microsoft.CmdPal.UI.ViewModels` (after restore) — verified 13
packages, 49,799 types, 112,131 members including WinAppSDK,
AdaptiveCards, CsWinRT, Win32Metadata
   - `runner` (C++ vcxproj) — verified packages.config fallback path
   - `ImageResizerExt` — verified project reference WinMD discovery
3. **All seven query actions validated:** `stats`, `search`,
`namespaces`, `type`, `enums`, `members`, `projects` — all returned
correct results
4. **Spell-check compliance:** SKILL.md vocabulary reviewed against
repo's check-spelling dictionaries; replaced flagged words with standard
alternatives

ed16ae7b2a Zoomit: Fix a issue that after trim, the video can't be saved and we can't start a new recording session (#46034) 
<!-- Enter a brief description/summary of your PR here. What does it
fix/what does it change/how was it tested (even manually, if necessary)?
-->
## Summary of the Pull Request

The bug was caused by a resource lifetime issue between the recording
phase and the save/trim phase. After a recording stopped,
StartRecordingAsync moved directly into the save workflow while it was
still holding the temporary recording stream and the active recording
session objects, later file operations in the save flow could fail
against that same file. Once that happened, ZoomIt could end up stuck in
a bad state where the first save did not complete cleanly and subsequent
recording attempts would no longer start until ZoomIt was restarted.

90131e35d9 CmdPal: Prevent unsynchornized access to More commands (#46020) 
## Summary of the Pull Request

This PR fixes a crash caused by unsynchronized access to a context menu:

- Fixes `System.ArgumentException: Destination array was not long
enough` crash in `CommandItemViewModel.AllCommands` caused by
`List<T>.AddRange()` racing with background `BuildAndInitMoreCommands`
mutations
- Replaces mutable `List<T>` public surfaces with immutable array
snapshots protected by a `Lock`; writers hold the lock, mutate the
backing list, then atomically publish new snapshots via `volatile`
fields that readers access lock-free
- Applies the same snapshot pattern to `ContentPageViewModel`, using a
bundled `CommandSnapshot` object for atomic publication (since
`PrimaryCommand` drives command invocation there, not just UI hints)
- Narrows `IContextMenuContext.MoreCommands` and `AllCommands` from
`List<T>`/`IEnumerable<T>` to `IReadOnlyList<T>` to prevent consumers
from casting back and mutating
- Moves `SafeCleanup()` calls outside locks in cleanup paths to avoid
holding the lock during cross-process RPC calls

a130969d0a CmdPal: Fix selection desync when clearing search query (#45949) 
## Summary of the Pull Request

A single search-text change produces multiple ItemsUpdated callbacks. A
later soft update (ForceFirstItem=false) could overwrite the prior
force-first intent, restoring a stale sticky selection.

- Adds latched _forceFirstPending flag that survives across successive
ItemsUpdated passes until selection stabilizes or user navigates;
- Fixes scroll position on first-item reselection via UpdateLayout +
ScrollToItem + ResetScrollToTop in the deferred callback.

<!-- Enter a brief description/summary of your PR here. What does it

-->
## Summary of the Pull Request
Fix #45993

Always on top have a window proc thread that will reload the settings
once file watcher trigger a reload of settings.
And always on top has a worker thread to read the settings at the same
time.
So it may happen worker thread will read the stale setting, as a result,
user change settings, and try to invoke always on top, as if nothing has
changed.
As the issue's recording shows.

f0134e4448 CmdPal: Add adaptive parallel fallback processing and consistent updates (#42273) 
## Summary of the Pull Request

This PR replaces sequential fallback processing with an adaptive
parallel dispatch model and isolates fallback work onto a dedicated
thread pool, preventing misbehaving extensions from starving the .NET
ThreadPool on blocked synchronous COM RPC call.

The other major change is allowing MainListPage to allow take control
over the debounce of search updates directly, reducing latency and
improving smoothness of the search.

- Adds `DedicatedThreadPool` — an elastic pool of background threads
(min 2, max 32) that expand on demand when all threads are blocked in
COM calls and shrink after 30s idle.
- Extracts all fallback dispatch machinery (adaptive workers,
per-command inflight tracking, pending-retry slots) from MainListPage
into a standalone FallbackUpdateManager.
- Prevents one fallback from monopolizing all threads by capping
concurrent in-flight calls per fallback to 4.
- Starts with low degree of parallelism (2) and gently scales up to half
of CPU cores per batch. If a fallback takes more than 200ms, another
worker is spawned so remaining commands aren't blocked.
- Adds `ThrottledDebouncedAction` to coalesce rapid `RaiseItemsChanged`
calls from fallback completions and user input (100ms for external
events, 50ms adjusted for keystrokes), replacing unbatched direct calls.
- Bypasses the UI-layer debounce timer for the main list page since it
now handles its own throttling, eliminating double-debounce latency.
- Introduces diagnostics for fallbacks and timing hidden behind feature
flags.

d20ae940d5 CmdPal: Replace FiltersDropDown ComboBox with searchable dropdown (#45747) 
## Summary of the Pull Request

Replaces the ComboBox-based filter control with a DropDownButton and
Flyout containing a searchable TextBox and ListView.

- Add type-to-search: typing while button is focused opens the flyout
and filters items by name
- Designed to match appearance of the context menu
- Add keyboard navigation: `Up`/`Down `moves selection from search box,
`Enter` confirms, `Escape` clears search text (or closes if empty), `F4`
opens the dropdown
- Add `Alt+F` shortcut on ShellPage to toggle filter focus
- Style flyout to match ContextMenu (item padding, separators, search
box appearance)
- Show "No results" empty state when search matches nothing
- After confirming selection, return focus to the main search box
- Add accessibility
- Update `FilterTemplateSelector` to support both ComboBoxItem and
ListViewItem containers
- Guard against infinite loop in navigation when only separators exist

## Pictures? Moving!

The PR adds a new option for disabling cursor wrapping, exposing three
options: None - wrapping is not disabled, Ctrl key - if this is pressed
then wrapping is disabled, Shift key - if this is pressed then wrapping
is disabled, this would enable a user to temporarily disable wrapping if
they wanted to get close to a monitor edge without wrapping (auto-hide
status bar for example).

The cursor wrap edge model has been updated to mirror Windows
monitor-to-monitor cursor movement, this should ensure there aren't any
non-wrappable edges.

A new test tool has been added 'CursorLog' this is a monitor aware,
dpi/scaling aware Win32 application that captures mouse movement across
monitors to a log file, the log contains one line per mouse movement
which includes: Monitor, x, y, scale, dpi.

The wrapping simulator has been updated to include the new wrapping
model and support mouse cursor log playback.

## Validation Steps Performed
The updated CursorWrap has been tested on a single monitor (laptop) and
multi-monitor desktop PC with monitors being offset to test
edge/wrapping behavior.

c23ba227b4 CmdPal: Debounce SelectedItem updates in CommandBarViewModel (#45782) 
<!-- Enter a brief description/summary of your PR here. What does it
fix/what does it change/how was it tested (even manually, if necessary)?
-->
## Summary of the Pull Request

This PR adds DispatcherQueueTimer-based debounce to SelectedItem updates
when receiving UpdateCommandBarMessage, preventing rapid consecutive
changes and prevents blinking when items change to fast (e.g. during
search). That's right - Command Palette is too fast!

c066cc3deb CmdPal: Fix window restore when the window is not WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW (#45877) 
## Summary of the Pull Request

This PR checks the window’s actual extended style before saving the
current window size so the offset is calculated correctly. The API used
can return coordinates in different coordinate spaces depending on
whether the window has the `WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW` extended style.

This makes sense in case that settings `WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW` fails, or is
not applied (when debugger is attached).

> If the window is a top-level window that does not have the
WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW window style, then the coordinates represented by the
following members are in workspace coordinates: ptMinPos

798564eea4 CmdPal Dock visual bugfixes (#45871) 
This PR fixes the following bugs and iprovements:

- The scroll forward/backward glyphs were clipped
- The `Show labels` settings is redundant as those can be set
individually, and actually messes with that setting. Therefore, removed
from the Settings UI.
- Minor string changes
- The 'Filter commands' box is hidden when right clicking the Dock to
customize it.
