+## 3.1 Generate PR Summaries with the Local Agent
 
-Use MCP tools to request Copilot reviews for all PRs in `Generated Files/ReleaseNotes/sorted_prs.csv`:
+> ⚠️ **Do not use `mcp_github_request_copilot_review` (or any "request Copilot review" tool that calls the GitHub API).**
+> When this skill is driven from a CLI / coding agent, the request is made from a bot identity and the GitHub API rejects it ("Bot reviewers cannot be requested"). The PR ends up with no Copilot review and `CopilotSummary` stays empty.
+>
+> Instead, **the local agent that is running this skill performs the review itself** and writes the summary directly into `sorted_prs.csv`.
 
-- Use `mcp_github_request_copilot_review` for each PR ID
-- Do NOT generate or run scripts for this step
+For every PR listed in `Generated Files/ReleaseNotes/sorted_prs.csv` whose `CopilotSummary` is empty:
+
+1. Fetch the PR diff using a tool that does **not** post anything back to GitHub. Any of these works:
+    - `mcp_github_pull_request_read` with `method: get_diff`
+    - `mcp_github_pull_request_read` with `method: get_files` (when the diff is large)
+    - `gh pr diff <PR_NUMBER> --repo microsoft/PowerToys`
+2. Read the PR title, body, and diff. Produce a 1–3 sentence, user-facing summary in the same style as a Copilot PR review (focus on observable behavior change, not implementation details).
+3. Write the summary into the `CopilotSummary` column for that PR row in `Generated Files/ReleaseNotes/sorted_prs.csv`. Preserve all other columns and the existing row order.
+
+**Batching guidance**
+
+- Process PRs in the order they appear in `sorted_prs.csv`.
+- Generate summaries for **all** PRs in one pass before continuing to Step 3.3, so the human reviewer can validate them together.
+- For very large diffs, summarize from `get_files` (filenames + per-file patches) rather than the full diff.
+- Skip PRs that already have a non-empty `CopilotSummary` (e.g. PRs where a human reviewer already pasted one). Do not overwrite existing summaries.
+
+**Why not post the summary back to the PR?** Posting a comment from the agent's identity would not be picked up by `dump-prs-since-commit.ps1` (which only matches Copilot bot authors), and it adds noise to the PR. Writing straight into the CSV keeps the artifact self-contained.

+# WPF to WinUI 3 Migration Skill
+
+Migrate PowerToys modules from WPF (`System.Windows.*`) to WinUI 3 (`Microsoft.UI.Xaml.*` / Windows App SDK). Based on patterns validated in the ImageResizer module migration.
+
+## When to Use This Skill
+
+- Migrate a PowerToys module from WPF to WinUI 3
+- Convert WPF XAML files to WinUI 3 XAML
+- Replace `System.Windows` namespaces with `Microsoft.UI.Xaml`
+- Migrate `Dispatcher` usage to `DispatcherQueue`
+- Migrate custom `Observable`/`RelayCommand` to CommunityToolkit.Mvvm source generators
+- Replace WPF-UI (Lepo) controls with native WinUI 3 controls
+- Convert imaging code from `System.Windows.Media.Imaging` to `Windows.Graphics.Imaging`
+- Handle WPF `Window` vs WinUI `Window` differences (sizing, positioning, SizeToContent)
+- Migrate resource files from `.resx` to `.resw` with `ResourceLoader`
+- Fix installer/build pipeline issues after WinUI 3 migration
+- Update project files, NuGet packages, and signing config
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- Visual Studio 2022 17.4+
+- Windows App SDK NuGet package (`Microsoft.WindowsAppSDK`)
+- .NET 8+ with `net8.0-windows10.0.19041.0` TFM
+- Windows 10 1803+ (April 2018 Update or newer)
+
+## Migration Strategy
+
+### Recommended Order
+
+1. **Project file** — Update TFM, NuGet packages, set `<UseWinUI>true</UseWinUI>`
+2. **Data models and business logic** — No UI dependencies, migrate first
+3. **MVVM framework** — Replace custom Observable/RelayCommand with CommunityToolkit.Mvvm
+4. **Resource strings** — Migrate `.resx` → `.resw`, introduce `ResourceLoaderInstance`
+5. **Services and utilities** — Replace `System.Windows` types, async-ify imaging code
+6. **ViewModels** — Update Dispatcher usage, binding patterns
+7. **Views/Pages** — Starting from leaf pages with fewest dependencies
+8. **Main page / shell** — Last, since it depends on everything
+9. **App.xaml / startup code** — Merge carefully (do NOT overwrite WinUI 3 boilerplate)
+10. **Installer & build pipeline** — Update WiX, signing, build events
+11. **Tests** — Adapt for WinUI 3 runtime, async patterns
+
+### Key Principles
+
+- **Do NOT overwrite `App.xaml` / `App.xaml.cs`** — WinUI 3 has different application lifecycle boilerplate. Merge your resources and initialization code into the generated WinUI 3 App class.
+- **Do NOT create Exe→WinExe `ProjectReference`** — Extract shared code to a Library project. This causes phantom build artifacts.
+- **Use `Lazy<T>` for resource-dependent statics** — `ResourceLoader` is not available at class-load time in all contexts.
+
+## Quick Reference Tables
+
+### Namespace Mapping
+
+| WPF | WinUI 3 |
+|-----|---------|
+| `System.Windows` | `Microsoft.UI.Xaml` |
+| `System.Windows.Controls` | `Microsoft.UI.Xaml.Controls` |
+| `System.Windows.Media` | `Microsoft.UI.Xaml.Media` |
+| `System.Windows.Media.Imaging` | `Microsoft.UI.Xaml.Media.Imaging` (UI) / `Windows.Graphics.Imaging` (processing) |
+| `System.Windows.Input` | `Microsoft.UI.Xaml.Input` |
+| `System.Windows.Data` | `Microsoft.UI.Xaml.Data` |
+| `System.Windows.Threading` | `Microsoft.UI.Dispatching` |
+| `System.Windows.Interop` | `WinRT.Interop` |
+
+### Critical API Replacements
+
+| WPF | WinUI 3 | Notes |
+|-----|---------|-------|
+| `Dispatcher.Invoke()` | `DispatcherQueue.TryEnqueue()` | Different return type (`bool`) |
+| `Dispatcher.CheckAccess()` | `DispatcherQueue.HasThreadAccess` | Property vs method |
+| `Application.Current.Dispatcher` | Store `DispatcherQueue` in static field | See [Threading](./references/threading-and-windowing.md) |
+| `MessageBox.Show()` | `ContentDialog` | Must set `XamlRoot` |
+| `DynamicResource` | `ThemeResource` | Theme-reactive only |
+| `clr-namespace:` | `using:` | XAML namespace prefix |
+| `{x:Static props:Resources.Key}` | `x:Uid` or `ResourceLoader.GetString()` | .resx → .resw |
+| `DataType="{x:Type m:Foo}"` | Remove or use code-behind | `x:Type` not supported |
+| `Properties.Resources.MyString` | `ResourceLoaderInstance.ResourceLoader.GetString("MyString")` | Lazy-init pattern |
+| `Application.Current.MainWindow` | Custom `App.Window` static property | Must track manually |
+| `SizeToContent="Height"` | Custom `SizeToContent()` via `AppWindow.Resize()` | See [Windowing](./references/threading-and-windowing.md) |
+| `MouseLeftButtonDown` | `PointerPressed` | Mouse → Pointer events |
+| `Pack URI (pack://...)` | `ms-appx:///` | Resource URI scheme |
+| `Observable` (custom base) | `ObservableObject` + `[ObservableProperty]` | CommunityToolkit.Mvvm |
+| `RelayCommand` (custom) | `[RelayCommand]` source generator | CommunityToolkit.Mvvm |
+| `JpegBitmapEncoder` | `BitmapEncoder.CreateAsync(JpegEncoderId, stream)` | Async, unified API |
+| `encoder.QualityLevel = 85` | `BitmapPropertySet { "ImageQuality", 0.85f }` | int 1-100 → float 0-1 |
+
+### NuGet Package Migration
+
+| WPF | WinUI 3 |
+|-----|---------|
+| `Microsoft.Xaml.Behaviors.Wpf` | `Microsoft.Xaml.Behaviors.WinUI.Managed` |
+| `WPF-UI` (Lepo) | Remove — use native WinUI 3 controls |
+| `CommunityToolkit.Mvvm` | `CommunityToolkit.Mvvm` (same) |
+| `Microsoft.Toolkit.Wpf.*` | `CommunityToolkit.WinUI.*` |
+| (none) | `Microsoft.WindowsAppSDK` |
+| (none) | `Microsoft.Windows.SDK.BuildTools` |
+| (none) | `WinUIEx` (optional, for window helpers) |
+| (none) | `CommunityToolkit.WinUI.Converters` |
+
+### XAML Syntax Changes
+
+| WPF | WinUI 3 |
+|-----|---------|
+| `xmlns:local="clr-namespace:MyApp"` | `xmlns:local="using:MyApp"` |
+| `{DynamicResource Key}` | `{ThemeResource Key}` |
+| `{x:Static Type.Member}` | `{x:Bind}` or code-behind |
+| `{x:Type local:MyType}` | Not supported |
+| `<Style.Triggers>` / `<DataTrigger>` | `VisualStateManager` |
+| `{Binding}` in `Setter.Value` | Not supported — use `StaticResource` |
+| `Content="{x:Static p:Resources.Cancel}"` | `x:Uid="Cancel"` with `.Content` in `.resw` |
+| `<ui:FluentWindow>` / `<ui:Button>` (WPF-UI) | Native `<Window>` / `<Button>` |
+| `<ui:NumberBox>` / `<ui:ProgressRing>` (WPF-UI) | Native `<NumberBox>` / `<ProgressRing>` |
+| `BasedOn="{StaticResource {x:Type ui:Button}}"` | `BasedOn="{StaticResource DefaultButtonStyle}"` |
+| `IsDefault="True"` / `IsCancel="True"` | `Style="{StaticResource AccentButtonStyle}"` / handle via KeyDown |
+| `<AccessText>` | Not available — use `AccessKey` property |
+| `<behaviors:Interaction.Triggers>` | Migrate to code-behind or WinUI behaviors |

+
+## Common Pitfalls (from ImageResizer migration)
+
+| Pitfall | Solution |
+|---------|----------|
+| `ContentDialog` throws "does not have a XamlRoot" | Set `dialog.XamlRoot = this.Content.XamlRoot` before `ShowAsync()` |
+| `FilePicker` throws error in desktop app | Call `WinRT.Interop.InitializeWithWindow.Initialize(picker, hwnd)` |
+| `Window.Dispatcher` returns null | Use `Window.DispatcherQueue` instead |
+| Resources on `Window` element not found | Move resources to root layout container (`Grid.Resources`) |
+| `VisualStateManager` on `Window` fails | Use `UserControl` or `Page` inside the Window |
+| Satellite assembly installer errors (`WIX0103`) | Remove `.resources.dll` refs from `Resources.wxs`; WinUI 3 uses `.pri` |
+| Phantom `.exe`/`.deps.json` in root output dir | Avoid Exe→WinExe `ProjectReference`; use Library project |
+| `ResourceLoader` crash at static init | Wrap in `Lazy<T>` or null-coalescing property — see [Lazy Init](./references/powertoys-patterns.md#lazy-initialization-for-resource-dependent-statics) |
+| `SizeToContent` not available | Implement manual content measurement + `AppWindow.Resize()` with DPI scaling |
+| `x:Bind` default mode is `OneTime` | Explicitly set `Mode=OneWay` or `Mode=TwoWay` |
+| `DynamicResource` / `x:Static` not compiling | Replace with `ThemeResource` / `ResourceLoader` or `x:Uid` |
+| `IValueConverter.Convert` signature mismatch | Last param: `CultureInfo` → `string` (language tag) |
+| Test project can't resolve WPF types | Add `<UseWPF>true</UseWPF>` temporarily; remove after imaging migration |
+| Pixel dimension type mismatch (`int` vs `uint`) | WinRT uses `uint` for pixel sizes — add `u` suffix in test assertions |
+| `$(SolutionDir)` empty in standalone project build | Use `$(MSBuildThisFileDirectory)` with relative paths instead |
+| JPEG quality value wrong after migration | WPF: int 1-100; WinRT: float 0.0-1.0 |
+| MSIX packaging fails in PreBuildEvent | Move to PostBuildEvent; artifacts not ready at PreBuild time |
+| RC file icon path with forward slashes | Use double-backslash escaping: `..\\ui\\Assets\\icon.ico` |
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+| Issue | Solution |
+|-------|----------|
+| Build fails after namespace rename | Check for lingering `System.Windows` usings; some types have no direct equivalent |
+| Missing `PresentationCore.dll` at runtime | Ensure ALL imaging code uses `Windows.Graphics.Imaging`, not `System.Windows.Media.Imaging` |
+| `DataContext` not working on Window | WinUI 3 `Window` is not a `DependencyObject`; use a root `Page` or `UserControl` |
+| XAML designer not available | WinUI 3 does not support XAML Designer; use Hot Reload instead |
+| NuGet restore failures | Run `build-essentials.cmd` after adding `Microsoft.WindowsAppSDK` package |
+| `Parallel.ForEach` compilation error | Migrate to `Parallel.ForEachAsync` for async imaging operations |
+| Signing check fails on leaked artifacts | Run `generateAllFileComponents.ps1`; verify only `WinUI3Apps\\` paths in signing config |

+# Imaging API Migration
+
+Migrating from WPF (`System.Windows.Media.Imaging` / `PresentationCore.dll`) to WinRT (`Windows.Graphics.Imaging`). Based on the ImageResizer migration.
+
+## Why This Migration Is Required
+
+WinUI 3 apps deployed as self-contained do NOT include `PresentationCore.dll`. Any code using `System.Windows.Media.Imaging` will throw `FileNotFoundException` at runtime. ALL imaging code must use WinRT APIs.
+
+| Purpose | Namespace |
+|---------|-----------|
+| UI display (`Image.Source`) | `Microsoft.UI.Xaml.Media.Imaging` |
+| Image processing (encode/decode/transform) | `Windows.Graphics.Imaging` |
+
+## Architecture Change: Pipeline vs Declarative
+
+The fundamental architecture differs:
+
+**WPF**: In-memory pipeline of bitmap objects. Decode → transform → encode synchronously.
+```csharp
+var decoder = BitmapDecoder.Create(stream, ...);
+var transform = new TransformedBitmap(decoder.Frames[0], new ScaleTransform(...));
+var encoder = new JpegBitmapEncoder();
+encoder.Frames.Add(BitmapFrame.Create(transform, ...));
+encoder.Save(outputStream);
+```
+
+**WinRT**: Declarative transform model. Configure transforms on the encoder, which handles pixel manipulation internally. All async.
+```csharp
+var decoder = await BitmapDecoder.CreateAsync(winrtStream);
+var encoder = await BitmapEncoder.CreateForTranscodingAsync(outputStream, decoder);
+encoder.BitmapTransform.ScaledWidth = newWidth;
+encoder.BitmapTransform.ScaledHeight = newHeight;
+encoder.BitmapTransform.InterpolationMode = BitmapInterpolationMode.Fant;
+await encoder.FlushAsync();
+```
+
+## Core Type Mapping
+
+### Decoders
+
+| WPF | WinRT | Notes |
+|-----|-------|-------|
+| `BitmapDecoder.Create(stream, options, cache)` | `BitmapDecoder.CreateAsync(stream)` | Async, auto-detects format |
+| `JpegBitmapDecoder` / `PngBitmapDecoder` / etc. | `BitmapDecoder.CreateAsync(stream)` | Single unified decoder |
+| `decoder.Frames[0]` | `await decoder.GetFrameAsync(0)` | Async frame access |
+| `decoder.Frames.Count` | `decoder.FrameCount` (uint) | `int` → `uint` |
+| `decoder.CodecInfo.ContainerFormat` | `decoder.DecoderInformation.CodecId` | Different property path |
+| `decoder.Frames[0].PixelWidth` (int) | `decoder.PixelWidth` (uint) | `int` → `uint` |
+| `WmpBitmapDecoder` | Not available | WMP/HDP not supported |
+
+### Encoders
+
+| WPF | WinRT | Notes |
+|-----|-------|-------|
+| `new JpegBitmapEncoder()` | `BitmapEncoder.CreateAsync(BitmapEncoder.JpegEncoderId, stream)` | Async factory |
+| `new PngBitmapEncoder()` | `BitmapEncoder.CreateAsync(BitmapEncoder.PngEncoderId, stream)` | No interlace control |
+| `encoder.Frames.Add(frame)` | `encoder.SetSoftwareBitmap(bitmap)` | Different API |
+| `encoder.Save(stream)` | `await encoder.FlushAsync()` | Async |
+
+### Encoder Properties (Strongly-Typed → BitmapPropertySet)
+
+WPF had type-specific encoder subclasses. WinRT uses a generic property set:
+
+```csharp
+// WPF
+case JpegBitmapEncoder jpeg: jpeg.QualityLevel = 85;        // int 1-100
+case PngBitmapEncoder png:   png.Interlace = PngInterlaceOption.On;
+case TiffBitmapEncoder tiff: tiff.Compression = TiffCompressOption.Lzw;
+
+// WinRT — JPEG quality (float 0.0-1.0)
+await encoder.BitmapProperties.SetPropertiesAsync(new BitmapPropertySet
+{
+    { "ImageQuality", new BitmapTypedValue(0.85f, PropertyType.Single) }
+});
+
+// WinRT — TIFF compression (via BitmapPropertySet at creation time)
+var props = new BitmapPropertySet
+{
+    { "TiffCompressionMethod", new BitmapTypedValue((byte)2, PropertyType.UInt8) }
+};
+var encoder = await BitmapEncoder.CreateAsync(BitmapEncoder.TiffEncoderId, stream, props);
+```
+
+**JPEG quality scale change**: WPF int `1-100` → WinRT float `0.0-1.0`. Divide by 100.
+
+### Bitmap Types
+
+| WPF | WinRT | Notes |
+|-----|-------|-------|
+| `BitmapSource` | `SoftwareBitmap` | Central pixel-data type |
+| `BitmapImage` | `BitmapImage` (in `Microsoft.UI.Xaml.Media.Imaging`) | UI display only |
+| `FormatConvertedBitmap` | `SoftwareBitmap.Convert()` | |
+| `TransformedBitmap` + `ScaleTransform` | `BitmapTransform` via encoder | Declarative |
+| `CroppedBitmap` | `BitmapTransform.Bounds` | |
+
+### Metadata
+
+| WPF | WinRT | Notes |
+|-----|-------|-------|
+| `BitmapMetadata` | `BitmapProperties` | Different API surface |
+| `BitmapMetadata.Clone()` | No equivalent | Cannot selectively clone |
+| Selective metadata removal | Not supported | All-or-nothing only |
+
+**Two encoder creation strategies for metadata:**
+- `CreateForTranscodingAsync()` — preserves ALL metadata from source
+- `CreateAsync()` — creates fresh encoder with NO metadata
+
+This eliminated ~258 lines of manual metadata manipulation code (`BitmapMetadataExtension.cs`) in ImageResizer.
+
+### Interpolation Modes
+
+| WPF `BitmapScalingMode` | WinRT `BitmapInterpolationMode` |
+|------------------------|-------------------------------|
+| `HighQuality` / `Fant` | `Fant` |
+| `Linear` | `Linear` |
+| `NearestNeighbor` | `NearestNeighbor` |
+| `Unspecified` / `LowQuality` | `Linear` |
+
+## Stream Interop
+
+WinRT imaging requires `IRandomAccessStream` instead of `System.IO.Stream`:
+
+```csharp
+using var stream = File.OpenRead(path);
+var winrtStream = stream.AsRandomAccessStream();  // Extension method
+var decoder = await BitmapDecoder.CreateAsync(winrtStream);
+```
+
+**Critical**: For transcode, seek the input stream back to 0 before creating the encoder:
+```csharp
+winrtStream.Seek(0);
+var encoder = await BitmapEncoder.CreateForTranscodingAsync(outputStream, decoder);
+```
+
+## CodecHelper Pattern (from ImageResizer)
+
+WPF stored container format GUIDs in `settings.json`. WinRT uses different codec IDs. Create a `CodecHelper` to bridge them:
+
+```csharp
+internal static class CodecHelper
+{
+    // Maps WPF container format GUIDs (stored in settings JSON) to WinRT encoder IDs
+    private static readonly Dictionary<Guid, Guid> LegacyGuidToEncoderId = new()
+    {
+        [new Guid("19e4a5aa-5662-4fc5-a0c0-1758028e1057")] = BitmapEncoder.JpegEncoderId,
+        [new Guid("1b7cfaf4-713f-473c-bbcd-6137425faeaf")] = BitmapEncoder.PngEncoderId,
+        [new Guid("0af1d87e-fcfe-4188-bdeb-a7906471cbe3")] = BitmapEncoder.BmpEncoderId,
+        [new Guid("163bcc30-e2e9-4f0b-961d-a3e9fdb788a3")] = BitmapEncoder.TiffEncoderId,
+        [new Guid("1f8a5601-7d4d-4cbd-9c82-1bc8d4eeb9a5")] = BitmapEncoder.GifEncoderId,
+    };
+
+    // Maps decoder IDs to corresponding encoder IDs
+    private static readonly Dictionary<Guid, Guid> DecoderIdToEncoderId = new()
+    {
+        [BitmapDecoder.JpegDecoderId] = BitmapEncoder.JpegEncoderId,
+        [BitmapDecoder.PngDecoderId] = BitmapEncoder.PngEncoderId,
+        // ...
+    };
+
+    public static Guid GetEncoderIdFromLegacyGuid(Guid legacyGuid)
+        => LegacyGuidToEncoderId.GetValueOrDefault(legacyGuid, Guid.Empty);
+
+    public static Guid GetEncoderIdForDecoder(BitmapDecoder decoder)
+        => DecoderIdToEncoderId.GetValueOrDefault(decoder.DecoderInformation.CodecId, Guid.Empty);
+}
+```
+
+This preserves backward compatibility with existing `settings.json` files that contain WPF-era GUIDs.
+
+## ImagingEnums Pattern (from ImageResizer)
+
+WPF-specific enums (`PngInterlaceOption`, `TiffCompressOption`) from `System.Windows.Media.Imaging` are used in settings JSON. Create custom enums with identical integer values for backward-compatible deserialization:
+
+```csharp
+// Replace System.Windows.Media.Imaging.PngInterlaceOption
+public enum PngInterlaceOption { Default = 0, On = 1, Off = 2 }
+
+// Replace System.Windows.Media.Imaging.TiffCompressOption
+public enum TiffCompressOption { Default = 0, None = 1, Ccitt3 = 2, Ccitt4 = 3, Lzw = 4, Rle = 5, Zip = 6 }
+```
+
+## Async Migration Patterns
+
+### Method Signatures
+
+All imaging operations become async:
+
+| Before | After |
+|--------|-------|
+| `void Execute(file, settings)` | `async Task ExecuteAsync(file, settings)` |
+| `IEnumerable<Error> Process()` | `async Task<IEnumerable<Error>> ProcessAsync()` |
+
+### Parallel Processing
+
+```csharp
+// WPF (synchronous)
+Parallel.ForEach(Files, new ParallelOptions { MaxDegreeOfParallelism = ... },
+    (file, state, i) => { Execute(file, settings); });
+
+// WinRT (async)
+await Parallel.ForEachAsync(Files, new ParallelOptions { MaxDegreeOfParallelism = ... },
+    async (file, ct) => { await ExecuteAsync(file, settings); });
+```
+
+### CLI Async Bridge
+
+CLI entry points must bridge async to sync:
+```csharp
+return RunSilentModeAsync(cliOptions).GetAwaiter().GetResult();
+```
+
+### Task.Factory.StartNew → Task.Run
+
+```csharp
+// WPF
+_ = Task.Factory.StartNew(StartExecutingWork, token, TaskCreationOptions.LongRunning, TaskScheduler.Default);
+
+// WinUI 3
+_ = Task.Run(() => StartExecutingWorkAsync());
+```
+
+## SoftwareBitmap as Interface Type
+
+When modules expose imaging interfaces (e.g., AI super-resolution), change parameter/return types:
+
+```csharp
+// WPF
+BitmapSource ApplySuperResolution(BitmapSource source, int scale, string filePath);
+
+// WinRT
+SoftwareBitmap ApplySuperResolution(SoftwareBitmap source, int scale, string filePath);
+```
+
+This eliminates manual `BitmapSource ↔ SoftwareBitmap` conversion code (unsafe `IMemoryBufferByteAccess` COM interop).
+
+## MultiFrame Image Handling
+
+```csharp
+// WinRT multi-frame encode (e.g., multi-page TIFF, animated GIF)
+for (uint i = 0; i < decoder.FrameCount; i++)
+{
+    if (i > 0)
+        await encoder.GoToNextFrameAsync();
+
+    var frame = await decoder.GetFrameAsync(i);
+    var bitmap = await frame.GetSoftwareBitmapAsync(
+        frame.BitmapPixelFormat,
+        BitmapAlphaMode.Premultiplied,
+        transform,
+        ExifOrientationMode.IgnoreExifOrientation,
+        ColorManagementMode.DoNotColorManage);
+    encoder.SetSoftwareBitmap(bitmap);
+}
+await encoder.FlushAsync();
+```
+
+## int → uint for Pixel Dimensions
+
+WinRT uses `uint` for all pixel dimensions. This affects:
+- `decoder.PixelWidth` / `decoder.PixelHeight` — `uint`
+- `BitmapTransform.ScaledWidth` / `ScaledHeight` — `uint`
+- `SoftwareBitmap` constructor — `uint` parameters
+- Test assertions: `Assert.AreEqual(96, ...)` → `Assert.AreEqual(96u, ...)`
+
+## Display SoftwareBitmap in UI
+
+```csharp
+var source = new SoftwareBitmapSource();
+// Must convert to Bgra8/Premultiplied for display
+if (bitmap.BitmapPixelFormat != BitmapPixelFormat.Bgra8 ||
+    bitmap.BitmapAlphaMode != BitmapAlphaMode.Premultiplied)
+{
+    bitmap = SoftwareBitmap.Convert(bitmap, BitmapPixelFormat.Bgra8, BitmapAlphaMode.Premultiplied);
+}
+await source.SetBitmapAsync(bitmap);
+myImage.Source = source;
+```
+
+## Known Limitations
+
+| Feature | WPF | WinRT | Impact |
+|---------|-----|-------|--------|
+| PNG interlace | `PngBitmapEncoder.Interlace` | Not available | Always non-interlaced |
+| Metadata stripping | Selective via `BitmapMetadata.Clone()` | All-or-nothing | Orientation EXIF also removed |
+| Pixel formats | Many (`Pbgra32`, `Bgr24`, `Indexed8`, ...) | Primarily `Bgra8`, `Rgba8`, `Gray8/16` | Convert to `Bgra8` |
+| WMP/HDP format | `WmpBitmapDecoder` | Not available | Not supported |
+| Pixel differences | WPF scaler | `BitmapInterpolationMode.Fant` | Not bit-identical |

+# Namespace and API Mapping Reference
+
+Complete reference for mapping WPF types to WinUI 3 equivalents, based on the ImageResizer migration.
+
+## Root Namespace Mapping
+
+| WPF Namespace | WinUI 3 Namespace |
+|---------------|-------------------|
+| `System.Windows` | `Microsoft.UI.Xaml` |
+| `System.Windows.Automation` | `Microsoft.UI.Xaml.Automation` |
+| `System.Windows.Automation.Peers` | `Microsoft.UI.Xaml.Automation.Peers` |
+| `System.Windows.Controls` | `Microsoft.UI.Xaml.Controls` |
+| `System.Windows.Controls.Primitives` | `Microsoft.UI.Xaml.Controls.Primitives` |
+| `System.Windows.Data` | `Microsoft.UI.Xaml.Data` |
+| `System.Windows.Documents` | `Microsoft.UI.Xaml.Documents` |
+| `System.Windows.Input` | `Microsoft.UI.Xaml.Input` |
+| `System.Windows.Markup` | `Microsoft.UI.Xaml.Markup` |
+| `System.Windows.Media` | `Microsoft.UI.Xaml.Media` |
+| `System.Windows.Media.Animation` | `Microsoft.UI.Xaml.Media.Animation` |
+| `System.Windows.Media.Imaging` | `Microsoft.UI.Xaml.Media.Imaging` |
+| `System.Windows.Navigation` | `Microsoft.UI.Xaml.Navigation` |
+| `System.Windows.Shapes` | `Microsoft.UI.Xaml.Shapes` |
+| `System.Windows.Threading` | `Microsoft.UI.Dispatching` |
+| `System.Windows.Interop` | `WinRT.Interop` |
+
+## Core Type Mapping
+
+| WPF Type | WinUI 3 Type |
+|----------|-------------|
+| `System.Windows.Application` | `Microsoft.UI.Xaml.Application` |
+| `System.Windows.Window` | `Microsoft.UI.Xaml.Window` (NOT a DependencyObject) |
+| `System.Windows.DependencyObject` | `Microsoft.UI.Xaml.DependencyObject` |
+| `System.Windows.DependencyProperty` | `Microsoft.UI.Xaml.DependencyProperty` |
+| `System.Windows.FrameworkElement` | `Microsoft.UI.Xaml.FrameworkElement` |
+| `System.Windows.UIElement` | `Microsoft.UI.Xaml.UIElement` |
+| `System.Windows.Visibility` | `Microsoft.UI.Xaml.Visibility` |
+| `System.Windows.Thickness` | `Microsoft.UI.Xaml.Thickness` |
+| `System.Windows.CornerRadius` | `Microsoft.UI.Xaml.CornerRadius` |
+| `System.Windows.Media.Color` | `Windows.UI.Color` (note: `Windows.UI`, not `Microsoft.UI`) |
+| `System.Windows.Media.Colors` | `Microsoft.UI.Colors` |
+
+## Controls Mapping
+
+### Direct Mapping (namespace-only change)
+
+These controls exist in both frameworks with the same name — change `System.Windows.Controls` to `Microsoft.UI.Xaml.Controls`:
+
+`Button`, `TextBox`, `TextBlock`, `ComboBox`, `CheckBox`, `ListBox`, `ListView`, `Image`, `StackPanel`, `Grid`, `Border`, `ScrollViewer`, `ContentControl`, `UserControl`, `Page`, `Frame`, `Slider`, `ProgressBar`, `ToolTip`, `RadioButton`, `ToggleButton`
+
+### Controls With Different Names or Behavior
+
+| WPF | WinUI 3 | Notes |
+|-----|---------|-------|
+| `MessageBox` | `ContentDialog` | Must set `XamlRoot` before `ShowAsync()` |
+| `ContextMenu` | `MenuFlyout` | Different API surface |
+| `TabControl` | `TabView` | Different API |
+| `Menu` | `MenuBar` | Different API |
+| `StatusBar` | Custom `StackPanel` layout | No built-in equivalent |
+| `AccessText` | Not available | Use `AccessKey` property on target control |
+
+### WPF-UI (Lepo) to Native WinUI 3
+
+ImageResizer used the `WPF-UI` library (Lepo) for Fluent styling. These must be replaced with native WinUI 3 equivalents:
+
+| WPF-UI (Lepo) | WinUI 3 Native | Notes |
+|----------------|---------------|-------|
+| `<ui:FluentWindow>` | `<Window>` | Native window + `ExtendsContentIntoTitleBar` |
+| `<ui:Button>` | `<Button>` | Native button |
+| `<ui:NumberBox>` | `<NumberBox>` | Built into WinUI 3 |
+| `<ui:ProgressRing>` | `<ProgressRing>` | Built into WinUI 3 |
+| `<ui:SymbolIcon>` | `<SymbolIcon>` or `<FontIcon>` | Built into WinUI 3 |
+| `<ui:InfoBar>` | `<InfoBar>` | Built into WinUI 3 |
+| `<ui:TitleBar>` | Custom title bar via `SetTitleBar()` | Use `ExtendsContentIntoTitleBar` |
+| `<ui:ThemesDictionary>` | `<XamlControlsResources>` | In merged dictionaries |
+| `<ui:ControlsDictionary>` | Remove | Not needed — WinUI 3 has its own control styles |
+| `BasedOn="{StaticResource {x:Type ui:Button}}"` | `BasedOn="{StaticResource DefaultButtonStyle}"` | Named style keys |
+
+## Input Event Mapping
+
+| WPF Event | WinUI 3 Event | Notes |
+|-----------|--------------|-------|
+| `MouseLeftButtonDown` | `PointerPressed` | Check `IsLeftButtonPressed` on args |
+| `MouseLeftButtonUp` | `PointerReleased` | Check pointer properties |
+| `MouseRightButtonDown` | `RightTapped` | Or `PointerPressed` with right button check |
+| `MouseMove` | `PointerMoved` | Uses `PointerRoutedEventArgs` |
+| `MouseWheel` | `PointerWheelChanged` | Different event args |
+| `MouseEnter` | `PointerEntered` | |
+| `MouseLeave` | `PointerExited` | |
+| `MouseDoubleClick` | `DoubleTapped` | Different event args |
+| `KeyDown` | `KeyDown` | Same name, args type: `KeyRoutedEventArgs` |
+| `PreviewKeyDown` | No direct equivalent | Use `KeyDown` with handled pattern |
+
+## IValueConverter Signature Change
+
+| WPF | WinUI 3 |
+|-----|---------|
+| `Convert(object value, Type targetType, object parameter, CultureInfo culture)` | `Convert(object value, Type targetType, object parameter, string language)` |
+| `ConvertBack(object value, Type targetType, object parameter, CultureInfo culture)` | `ConvertBack(object value, Type targetType, object parameter, string language)` |
+
+Last parameter changes from `CultureInfo` to `string` (BCP-47 language tag). All converter classes must be updated.
+
+## Types That Moved to Different Hierarchies
+
+| WPF | WinUI 3 | Notes |
+|-----|---------|-------|
+| `System.Windows.Threading.Dispatcher` | `Microsoft.UI.Dispatching.DispatcherQueue` | Completely different API |
+| `System.Windows.Threading.DispatcherPriority` | `Microsoft.UI.Dispatching.DispatcherQueuePriority` | Only 3 levels: High/Normal/Low |
+| `System.Windows.Interop.HwndSource` | `WinRT.Interop.WindowNative` | For HWND interop |
+| `System.Windows.Interop.WindowInteropHelper` | `WinRT.Interop.WindowNative.GetWindowHandle()` | |
+| `System.Windows.SystemColors` | Resource keys via `ThemeResource` | No direct static class |
+| `System.Windows.SystemParameters` | Win32 API or `DisplayInformation` | No direct equivalent |
+
+## NuGet Package Migration
+
+| WPF | WinUI 3 | Notes |
+|-----|---------|-------|
+| Built into .NET (no NuGet needed) | `Microsoft.WindowsAppSDK` | Required |
+| `PresentationCore` / `PresentationFramework` | `Microsoft.WinUI` (transitive) | |
+| `Microsoft.Xaml.Behaviors.Wpf` | `Microsoft.Xaml.Behaviors.WinUI.Managed` | |
+| `WPF-UI` (Lepo) | **Remove** — use native WinUI 3 controls | |
+| `CommunityToolkit.Mvvm` | `CommunityToolkit.Mvvm` (same) | |
+| `Microsoft.Toolkit.Wpf.*` | `CommunityToolkit.WinUI.*` | |
+| (none) | `Microsoft.Windows.SDK.BuildTools` | Required |
+| (none) | `WinUIEx` | Optional, window helpers |
+| (none) | `CommunityToolkit.WinUI.Converters` | Optional |
+| (none) | `CommunityToolkit.WinUI.Extensions` | Optional |
+| (none) | `Microsoft.Web.WebView2` | If using WebView |
+
+## Project File Changes
+
+### WPF .csproj
+
+```xml
+<Project Sdk="Microsoft.NET.Sdk">
+  <PropertyGroup>
+    <OutputType>WinExe</OutputType>
+    <TargetFramework>net8.0-windows</TargetFramework>
+    <UseWPF>true</UseWPF>

+
+```xml
+<Project Sdk="Microsoft.NET.Sdk">
+  <PropertyGroup>
+    <OutputType>WinExe</OutputType>
+    <TargetFramework>net8.0-windows10.0.19041.0</TargetFramework>
+    <UseWinUI>true</UseWinUI>

+    <DefineConstants>DISABLE_XAML_GENERATED_MAIN,TRACE</DefineConstants>
+    <ProjectPriFileName>PowerToys.ModuleName.pri</ProjectPriFileName>
+  </PropertyGroup>
+</Project>
+```
+
+Key changes:
+- `UseWPF` → `UseWinUI`
+- TFM: `net8.0-windows` → `net8.0-windows10.0.19041.0`
+- Add `WindowsPackageType=None` for unpackaged desktop apps
+- Add `SelfContained=true` + `WindowsAppSDKSelfContained=true`
+- Add `DISABLE_XAML_GENERATED_MAIN` if using custom `Program.cs` entry point
+- Set `ProjectPriFileName` to match your module's assembly name
+- Move icon from `Resources/` to `Assets/<Module>/`
+
+### XAML ApplicationDefinition Setup
+
+WinUI 3 requires explicit `ApplicationDefinition` declaration:
+
+```xml
+<ItemGroup>
+  <Page Remove="ImageResizerXAML\App.xaml" />
+</ItemGroup>
+<ItemGroup>
+  <ApplicationDefinition Include="ImageResizerXAML\App.xaml" />
+</ItemGroup>
+```
+
+### CsWinRT Interop (for GPO and native references)
+
+If the module references native C++ projects (like `GPOWrapper`):
+
+```xml
+<PropertyGroup>
+  <CsWinRTIncludes>PowerToys.GPOWrapper</CsWinRTIncludes>
+  <CsWinRTGeneratedFilesDir>$(OutDir)</CsWinRTGeneratedFilesDir>
+</PropertyGroup>
+```
+
+Change `GPOWrapperProjection.csproj` reference to direct `GPOWrapper.vcxproj` reference.
+
+### InternalsVisibleTo Migration
+
+Move from code file to `.csproj`:
+
+```csharp
+// DELETE: Properties/InternalsVisibleTo.cs
+// [assembly: InternalsVisibleTo("ImageResizer.Test")]
+```
+
+```xml
+<!-- ADD to .csproj: -->
+<ItemGroup>
+  <InternalsVisibleTo Include="ImageResizer.Test" />
+</ItemGroup>
+```
+
+### Items to Remove from .csproj
+
+```xml
+<!-- DELETE: WPF resource embedding -->
+<EmbeddedResource Update="Properties\Resources.resx">...</EmbeddedResource>
+<Resource Include="Resources\ImageResizer.ico" />
+<Compile Update="Properties\Resources.Designer.cs">...</Compile>
+<FrameworkReference Include="Microsoft.WindowsDesktop.App.WPF" /> <!-- from CLI project -->
+```

+### Critical: CLI Dependency Pattern
+
+**Do NOT** create `ProjectReference` from Exe to WinExe. This causes phantom build artifacts (`.exe`, `.deps.json`, `.runtimeconfig.json`) in the root output directory.
+
+```
+WRONG:  ImageResizerCLI (Exe) → ImageResizerUI (WinExe)    ← phantom artifacts
+CORRECT: ImageResizerCLI (Exe) → ImageResizerCommon (Library)
+         ImageResizerUI (WinExe) → ImageResizerCommon (Library)
+```
+
+Follow the `FancyZonesCLI` → `FancyZonesEditorCommon` pattern.
+
+### Files to Delete
+
+| File | Reason |
+|------|--------|
+| `Properties/Resources.resx` | Replaced by `Strings/en-us/Resources.resw` |
+| `Properties/Resources.Designer.cs` | Auto-generated; no longer needed |
+| `Properties/InternalsVisibleTo.cs` | Moved to `.csproj` `<InternalsVisibleTo>` |
+| `Helpers/Observable.cs` | Replaced by `CommunityToolkit.Mvvm.ObservableObject` |
+| `Helpers/RelayCommand.cs` | Replaced by `CommunityToolkit.Mvvm.Input` |
+| `Resources/*.ico` / `Resources/*.png` | Moved to `Assets/<Module>/` |
+| WPF `.dev.manifest` / `.prod.manifest` | Replaced by single `app.manifest` |
+| WPF-specific converters | Replaced by WinUI 3 converters with `string language` |
+
+---
+
+## MVVM Migration: Custom → CommunityToolkit.Mvvm Source Generators
+
+### Observable Base Class → ObservableObject + [ObservableProperty]
+
+**Before (custom Observable):**
+```csharp
+public class ResizeSize : Observable
+{
+    private int _id;
+    public int Id { get => _id; set => Set(ref _id, value); }
+
+    private ResizeFit _fit;
+    public ResizeFit Fit
+    {
+        get => _fit;
+        set
+        {
+            Set(ref _fit, value);
+            UpdateShowHeight();
+        }
+    }
+
+    private bool _showHeight = true;
+    public bool ShowHeight { get => _showHeight; set => Set(ref _showHeight, value); }
+    private void UpdateShowHeight() { ShowHeight = Fit == ResizeFit.Stretch || Unit != ResizeUnit.Percent; }
+}
+```
+
+**After (CommunityToolkit.Mvvm source generators):**
+```csharp
+public partial class ResizeSize : ObservableObject  // MUST be partial
+{
+    [ObservableProperty]
+    [JsonPropertyName("Id")]
+    private int _id;
+
+    [ObservableProperty]
+    [NotifyPropertyChangedFor(nameof(ShowHeight))]  // Replaces manual UpdateShowHeight()
+    private ResizeFit _fit;
+
+    // Computed property — no backing field, no manual update method
+    public bool ShowHeight => Fit == ResizeFit.Stretch || Unit != ResizeUnit.Percent;
+}
+```
+
+Key changes:
+- Class must be `partial` for source generators
+- `Observable` → `ObservableObject` (from CommunityToolkit.Mvvm)
+- Manual `Set(ref _field, value)` → `[ObservableProperty]` attribute
+- `PropertyChanged` dependencies → `[NotifyPropertyChangedFor(nameof(...))]`
+- Computed properties with manual `UpdateXxx()` → direct expression body
+
+### Custom Name Setter with Transform
+
+For properties that transform the value before storing:
+
+```csharp
+// Cannot use [ObservableProperty] because of value transformation
+private string _name;
+public string Name
+{
+    get => _name;
+    set => SetProperty(ref _name, ReplaceTokens(value));  // SetProperty from ObservableObject
+}
+```
+
+### RelayCommand → [RelayCommand] Source Generator
+
+```csharp
+// DELETE: Helpers/RelayCommand.cs (custom ICommand)
+
+// Before
+public ICommand ResizeCommand { get; } = new RelayCommand(Execute);
+
+// After
+[RelayCommand]
+private void Resize() { /* ... */ }
+// Source generator creates ResizeCommand property automatically
+```
+
+---
+
+## Resource String Migration (.resx → .resw)
+
+### ResourceLoaderInstance Helper
+
+```csharp
+internal static class ResourceLoaderInstance
+{
+    internal static ResourceLoader ResourceLoader { get; private set; }
+
+    static ResourceLoaderInstance()
+    {
+        ResourceLoader = new ResourceLoader("PowerToys.ImageResizer.pri");
+    }
+}
+```
+
+**Note**: Use the single-argument `ResourceLoader` constructor. The two-argument version (`ResourceLoader("file.pri", "path/Resources")`) may fail if the resource map path doesn't match the actual PRI structure.
+
+### Usage
+
+```csharp
+// WPF
+using ImageResizer.Properties;
+string text = Resources.MyStringKey;
+
+// WinUI 3
+string text = ResourceLoaderInstance.ResourceLoader.GetString("MyStringKey");
+```
+
+### Lazy Initialization for Resource-Dependent Statics
+
+`ResourceLoader` is not available at class-load time in all contexts (CLI mode, test harness). Use lazy initialization:
+
+**Before (crashes at class load):**
+```csharp
+private static readonly CompositeFormat _format =
+    CompositeFormat.Parse(Resources.Error_Format);
+
+private static readonly Dictionary<string, string> _tokens = new()
+{
+    ["$small$"] = Resources.Small,
+    ["$medium$"] = Resources.Medium,
+};
+```
+
+**After (lazy, safe):**
+```csharp
+private static CompositeFormat _format;
+private static CompositeFormat Format => _format ??=
+    CompositeFormat.Parse(ResourceLoaderInstance.ResourceLoader.GetString("Error_Format"));
+
+private static readonly Lazy<Dictionary<string, string>> _tokens = new(() =>
+    new Dictionary<string, string>
+    {
+        ["$small$"] = ResourceLoaderInstance.ResourceLoader.GetString("Small"),
+        ["$medium$"] = ResourceLoaderInstance.ResourceLoader.GetString("Medium"),
+    });
+// Usage: _tokens.Value.TryGetValue(...)
+```
+
+### XAML: x:Static → x:Uid
+
+```xml
+<!-- WPF -->
+<Button Content="{x:Static p:Resources.Cancel}" />
+<!-- WinUI 3 -->
+<Button x:Uid="Cancel" />
+```
+
+In `.resw`, use property-suffixed keys: `Cancel.Content`, `Header.Text`, etc.
+
+---
+
+## CLI Options Migration
+
+`System.CommandLine.Option<T>` constructor signature changed:
+
+```csharp
+// WPF era — string[] aliases
+public DestinationOption()
+    : base(_aliases, Properties.Resources.CLI_Option_Destination)
+
+// WinUI 3 — single string name
+public DestinationOption()
+    : base(_aliases[0], ResourceLoaderInstance.ResourceLoader.GetString("CLI_Option_Destination"))
+```
+
+---
+
+## Installer Updates
+
+### WiX Changes
+
+#### 1. Remove Satellite Assembly References
+
+Remove from `installer/PowerToysSetupVNext/Resources.wxs`:
+- `<Component>` entries for `<Module>.resources.dll`
+- `<RemoveFolder>` entries for locale directories
+- Module from `WinUI3AppsInstallFolder` `ParentDirectory` loop
+
+#### 2. Update File Component Generation
+
+Run `generateAllFileComponents.ps1` after migration. For Exe→WinExe dependency issues, add cleanup logic:
+
+```powershell
+# Strip phantom ImageResizer files from BaseApplications.wxs
+$content = $content -replace 'PowerToys\.ImageResizer\.exe', ''
+$content = $content -replace 'PowerToys\.ImageResizer\.deps\.json', ''
+$content = $content -replace 'PowerToys\.ImageResizer\.runtimeconfig\.json', ''
+```
+
+#### 3. Output Directory
+
+WinUI 3 modules output to `WinUI3Apps/`:
+```xml
+<OutputPath>..\..\..\..\$(Platform)\$(Configuration)\WinUI3Apps\</OutputPath>
+```
+
+### ESRP Signing
+
+Update `.pipelines/ESRPSigning_core.json` — all module binaries must use `WinUI3Apps\\` paths:
+
+```json
+{
+    "FileList": [
+        "WinUI3Apps\\PowerToys.ImageResizer.exe",
+        "WinUI3Apps\\PowerToys.ImageResizerExt.dll",
+        "WinUI3Apps\\PowerToys.ImageResizerContextMenu.dll"
+    ]
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+## Build Pipeline Fixes
+
+### $(SolutionDir) → $(MSBuildThisFileDirectory)
+
+`$(SolutionDir)` is empty when building individual projects outside the solution. Replace with relative paths from the project file:
+
+```xml
+<!-- Before (breaks on standalone project build) -->
+<Exec Command="powershell $(SolutionDir)tools\build\convert-resx-to-rc.ps1" />
+
+<!-- After (works always) -->
+<Exec Command="powershell $(MSBuildThisFileDirectory)..\..\..\..\tools\build\convert-resx-to-rc.ps1" />
+```
+
+### MSIX Packaging: PreBuild → PostBuild
+
+MSIX packaging must happen AFTER the build (artifacts not ready at PreBuild):
+
+```xml
+<!-- Before -->
+<PreBuildEvent>MakeAppx.exe pack /d . /p "$(OutDir)Package.msix" /o</PreBuildEvent>
+
+<!-- After -->
+<PostBuildEvent>
+  if exist "$(OutDir)Package.msix" del "$(OutDir)Package.msix"
+  MakeAppx.exe pack /d "$(MSBuildThisFileDirectory)." /p "$(OutDir)Package.msix" /o
+</PostBuildEvent>
+```
+
+### RC File Icon Path Escaping
+
+Windows Resource Compiler requires double-backslash paths:
+
+```c
+// Before (breaks)
+IDI_ICON1 ICON "..\\ui\Assets\ImageResizer\ImageResizer.ico"
+// After
+IDI_ICON1 ICON "..\\ui\\Assets\\ImageResizer\\ImageResizer.ico"
+```
+
+### BOM/Encoding Normalization
+
+Migration may strip UTF-8 BOM from C# files (`// Copyright` → `// Copyright`). This is cosmetic and safe, but be aware it will show as changes in diff.
+
+---
+
+## Test Adaptation
+
+### Tests Requiring WPF Runtime
+
+If tests still need WPF types (e.g., comparing old vs new output), temporarily add:
+```xml
+<UseWPF>true</UseWPF>
+```
+Remove this after fully migrating all test code to WinRT APIs.
+
+### Tests Using ResourceLoader
+
+Unit tests cannot easily initialize WinUI 3 `ResourceLoader`. Options:
+- Hardcode expected strings in tests: `"Value must be between '{0}' and '{1}'."`
+- Delete tests that only verify resource string lookup
+- Avoid creating `App` instances in test harness (WinUI App cannot be instantiated in tests)
+
+### Async Test Methods
+
+All imaging tests become async:
+```csharp
+// Before
+[TestMethod]
+public void ResizesImage() { ... }
+
+// After
+[TestMethod]
+public async Task ResizesImageAsync() { ... }
+```
+
+### uint Assertions
+
+```csharp
+// Before
+Assert.AreEqual(96, image.Frames[0].PixelWidth);
+// After
+Assert.AreEqual(96u, decoder.PixelWidth);
+```
+
+### Pixel Data Access in Tests
+
+```csharp
+// Before (WPF)
+public static Color GetFirstPixel(this BitmapSource source)
+{
+    var pixel = new byte[4];
+    new FormatConvertedBitmap(
+        new CroppedBitmap(source, new Int32Rect(0, 0, 1, 1)),
+        PixelFormats.Bgra32, null, 0).CopyPixels(pixel, 4, 0);
+    return Color.FromArgb(pixel[3], pixel[2], pixel[1], pixel[0]);
+}
+
+// After (WinRT)
+public static async Task<(byte R, byte G, byte B, byte A)> GetFirstPixelAsync(
+    this BitmapDecoder decoder)
+{
+    using var bitmap = await decoder.GetSoftwareBitmapAsync(
+        BitmapPixelFormat.Bgra8, BitmapAlphaMode.Premultiplied);
+    var buffer = new Windows.Storage.Streams.Buffer(
+        (uint)(bitmap.PixelWidth * bitmap.PixelHeight * 4));
+    bitmap.CopyToBuffer(buffer);
+    using var reader = DataReader.FromBuffer(buffer);
+    byte b = reader.ReadByte(), g = reader.ReadByte(),
+         r = reader.ReadByte(), a = reader.ReadByte();
+    return (r, g, b, a);
+}
+```
+
+### Metadata Assertions
+
+```csharp
+// Before
+Assert.AreEqual("Test", ((BitmapMetadata)image.Frames[0].Metadata).Comment);
+
+// After
+var props = await decoder.BitmapProperties.GetPropertiesAsync(
+    new[] { "System.Photo.DateTaken" });
+Assert.IsTrue(props.ContainsKey("System.Photo.DateTaken"),
+    "Metadata should be preserved during transcode");
+```
+
+### AllowUnsafeBlocks for SoftwareBitmap Tests
+
+If tests access pixel data via `IMemoryBufferByteAccess`, add:
+```xml
+<AllowUnsafeBlocks>true</AllowUnsafeBlocks>
+```
+
+---
+
+## Settings JSON Backward Compatibility
+
+- Settings are stored in `%LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\PowerToys\<ModuleName>\`
+- Schema must remain backward-compatible across upgrades
+- Add new fields with defaults; never remove or rename existing fields
+- Create custom enums matching WPF enum integer values for deserialization (e.g., `ImagingEnums.cs`)
+- See: `src/settings-ui/Settings.UI.Library/`
+
+## IPC Contract
+
+If the module communicates with the runner or settings UI:
+1. Update BOTH sides of the IPC contract
+2. Test settings changes are received by the module
+3. Test module state changes are reflected in settings UI
+4. Reference: `doc/devdocs/core/settings/runner-ipc.md`
+
+---
+
+## Checklist for PowerToys Module Migration

+# Threading and Window Management Migration
+
+Based on patterns from the ImageResizer migration.
+
+## Dispatcher → DispatcherQueue
+
+### API Mapping
+
+| WPF | WinUI 3 |
+|-----|---------|
+| `Dispatcher.Invoke(Action)` | `DispatcherQueue.TryEnqueue(Action)` |
+| `Dispatcher.BeginInvoke(Action)` | `DispatcherQueue.TryEnqueue(Action)` |
+| `Dispatcher.Invoke(DispatcherPriority, Action)` | `DispatcherQueue.TryEnqueue(DispatcherQueuePriority, Action)` |
+| `Dispatcher.CheckAccess()` | `DispatcherQueue.HasThreadAccess` |
+| `Dispatcher.VerifyAccess()` | Check `DispatcherQueue.HasThreadAccess` (no exception-throwing method) |
+
+### Priority Mapping
+
+WinUI 3 has only 3 levels: `High`, `Normal`, `Low`.
+
+| WPF `DispatcherPriority` | WinUI 3 `DispatcherQueuePriority` |
+|-------------------------|----------------------------------|
+| `Send` | `High` |
+| `Normal` / `Input` / `Loaded` / `Render` / `DataBind` | `Normal` |
+| `Background` / `ContextIdle` / `ApplicationIdle` / `SystemIdle` | `Low` |
+
+### Pattern: Global DispatcherQueue Access (from ImageResizer)
+
+WPF provided `Application.Current.Dispatcher` globally. WinUI 3 requires explicit storage:
+
+```csharp
+// Store DispatcherQueue at app startup
+private static DispatcherQueue _uiDispatcherQueue;
+
+public static void InitializeDispatcher()
+{
+    _uiDispatcherQueue = DispatcherQueue.GetForCurrentThread();
+}
+```
+
+Usage with thread-check pattern (from `Settings.Reload()`):
+```csharp
+var currentDispatcher = DispatcherQueue.GetForCurrentThread();
+if (currentDispatcher != null)
+{
+    // Already on UI thread
+    ReloadCore(jsonSettings);
+}
+else if (_uiDispatcherQueue != null)
+{
+    // Dispatch to UI thread
+    _uiDispatcherQueue.TryEnqueue(() => ReloadCore(jsonSettings));
+}
+else
+{
+    // Fallback (e.g., CLI mode, no UI)
+    ReloadCore(jsonSettings);
+}
+```
+
+### Pattern: DispatcherQueue in ViewModels (from ProgressViewModel)
+
+```csharp
+public class ProgressViewModel
+{
+    private readonly DispatcherQueue _dispatcherQueue;
+
+    public ProgressViewModel()
+    {
+        _dispatcherQueue = DispatcherQueue.GetForCurrentThread();
+    }
+
+    private void OnProgressChanged(double progress)
+    {
+        _dispatcherQueue.TryEnqueue(() =>
+        {
+            Progress = progress;
+            // other UI updates...
+        });
+    }
+}
+```
+
+### Pattern: Async Dispatch (await)
+
+```csharp
+// WPF
+await this.Dispatcher.InvokeAsync(() => { /* UI work */ });
+
+// WinUI 3 (using TaskCompletionSource)
+var tcs = new TaskCompletionSource();
+this.DispatcherQueue.TryEnqueue(() =>
+{
+    try { /* UI work */ tcs.SetResult(); }
+    catch (Exception ex) { tcs.SetException(ex); }
+});
+await tcs.Task;
+```
+
+### C++/WinRT Threading
+
+| Old API | New API |
+|---------|---------|
+| `winrt::resume_foreground(CoreDispatcher)` | `wil::resume_foreground(DispatcherQueue)` |
+| `CoreDispatcher.RunAsync()` | `DispatcherQueue.TryEnqueue()` |
+
+Add `Microsoft.Windows.ImplementationLibrary` NuGet for `wil::resume_foreground`.
+
+---
+
+## Window Management
+
+### WPF Window vs WinUI 3 Window
+
+| Feature | WPF `Window` | WinUI 3 `Window` |
+|---------|-------------|------------------|
+| Base class | `ContentControl` → `DependencyObject` | **NOT** a control, NOT a `DependencyObject` |
+| `Resources` property | Yes | No — use root container's `Resources` |
+| `DataContext` property | Yes | No — use root `Page`/`UserControl` |
+| `VisualStateManager` | Yes | No — use inside child controls |
+| `Load`/`Unload` events | Yes | No |
+| `SizeToContent` | Yes (`Height`/`Width`/`WidthAndHeight`) | No — must implement manually |
+| `WindowState` (min/max/normal) | Yes | No — use `AppWindow.Presenter` |
+| `WindowStyle` | Yes | No — use `AppWindow` title bar APIs |
+| `ResizeMode` | Yes | No — use `AppWindow.Presenter` |
+| `WindowStartupLocation` | Yes | No — calculate manually |
+| `Icon` | `Window.Icon` | `AppWindow.SetIcon()` |
+| `Title` | `Window.Title` | `AppWindow.Title` (or `Window.Title`) |
+| Size (Width/Height) | Yes | No — use `AppWindow.Resize()` |
+| Position (Left/Top) | Yes | No — use `AppWindow.Move()` |
+| `IsDefault`/`IsCancel` on buttons | Yes | No — handle Enter/Escape in code-behind |
+
+### Getting AppWindow from Window
+
+```csharp
+using Microsoft.UI;
+using Microsoft.UI.Windowing;
+using WinRT.Interop;
+
+IntPtr hwnd = WindowNative.GetWindowHandle(window);
+WindowId windowId = Win32Interop.GetWindowIdFromWindow(hwnd);
+AppWindow appWindow = AppWindow.GetFromWindowId(windowId);
+```
+
+### Pattern: SizeToContent Replacement (from ImageResizer)
+
+WinUI 3 has no `SizeToContent`. ImageResizer implemented a manual equivalent:
+
+```csharp
+private void SizeToContent()
+{
+    if (Content is not FrameworkElement content)
+        return;
+
+    // Measure desired content size
+    content.Measure(new Size(double.PositiveInfinity, double.PositiveInfinity));
+    var desiredHeight = content.DesiredSize.Height + WindowChromeHeight + Padding;
+
+    // Account for DPI scaling
+    var scaleFactor = Content.XamlRoot.RasterizationScale;
+    var pixelHeight = (int)(desiredHeight * scaleFactor);
+    var pixelWidth = (int)(WindowWidth * scaleFactor);
+
+    // Resize via AppWindow
+    var hwnd = WindowNative.GetWindowHandle(this);
+    var windowId = Win32Interop.GetWindowIdFromWindow(hwnd);
+    var appWindow = AppWindow.GetFromWindowId(windowId);
+    appWindow.Resize(new Windows.Graphics.SizeInt32(pixelWidth, pixelHeight));
+}
+```
+
+**Key details:**
+- `WindowChromeHeight` ≈ 32px for the title bar
+- Must multiply by `RasterizationScale` for DPI-aware sizing
+- Call `SizeToContent()` after page navigation or content changes
+- Unsubscribe previous event handlers before subscribing new ones to avoid memory leaks
+
+### Window Positioning (Center Screen)
+
+```csharp
+var displayArea = DisplayArea.GetFromWindowId(windowId, DisplayAreaFallback.Nearest);
+var centerX = (displayArea.WorkArea.Width - appWindow.Size.Width) / 2;
+var centerY = (displayArea.WorkArea.Height - appWindow.Size.Height) / 2;
+appWindow.Move(new Windows.Graphics.PointInt32(centerX, centerY));
+```
+
+### Window State (Minimize/Maximize)
+
+```csharp
+(appWindow.Presenter as OverlappedPresenter)?.Maximize();
+(appWindow.Presenter as OverlappedPresenter)?.Minimize();
+(appWindow.Presenter as OverlappedPresenter)?.Restore();
+```
+
+### Title Bar Customization
+
+```csharp
+// Extend content into title bar
+this.ExtendsContentIntoTitleBar = true;
+this.SetTitleBar(AppTitleBar); // AppTitleBar is a XAML element
+
+// Or via AppWindow API
+if (AppWindowTitleBar.IsCustomizationSupported())
+{
+    var titleBar = appWindow.TitleBar;
+    titleBar.ExtendsContentIntoTitleBar = true;
+    titleBar.ButtonBackgroundColor = Colors.Transparent;
+}
+```
+
+### Tracking the Main Window
+
+```csharp
+public partial class App : Application
+{
+    public static Window MainWindow { get; private set; }
+
+    protected override void OnLaunched(LaunchActivatedEventArgs args)
+    {
+        MainWindow = new MainWindow();
+        MainWindow.Activate();
+    }
+}
+```
+
+### ContentDialog Requires XamlRoot
+
+```csharp
+var dialog = new ContentDialog
+{
+    Title = "Confirm",
+    Content = "Are you sure?",
+    PrimaryButtonText = "Yes",
+    CloseButtonText = "No",
+    XamlRoot = this.Content.XamlRoot  // REQUIRED
+};
+var result = await dialog.ShowAsync();
+```
+
+### File Pickers Require HWND
+
+```csharp
+var picker = new FileOpenPicker();
+picker.FileTypeFilter.Add(".jpg");
+
+// REQUIRED for desktop apps
+var hwnd = WindowNative.GetWindowHandle(App.MainWindow);
+WinRT.Interop.InitializeWithWindow.Initialize(picker, hwnd);
+
+var file = await picker.PickSingleFileAsync();
+```
+
+### Window Close Handling
+
+```csharp
+// WPF
+protected override void OnClosing(CancelEventArgs e) { e.Cancel = true; this.Hide(); }
+
+// WinUI 3
+this.AppWindow.Closing += (s, e) => { e.Cancel = true; this.AppWindow.Hide(); };
+```
+
+---
+
+## Custom Entry Point (DISABLE_XAML_GENERATED_MAIN)
+
+ImageResizer uses a custom `Program.cs` entry point instead of the WinUI 3 auto-generated `Main`. This is needed for:
+- CLI mode (process files without showing UI)
+- Custom initialization before the WinUI 3 App starts
+- Single-instance enforcement
+
+### Setup
+
+In `.csproj`:
+```xml
+<DefineConstants>DISABLE_XAML_GENERATED_MAIN,TRACE</DefineConstants>
+```
+
+Create `Program.cs`:
+```csharp
+public static class Program
+{
+    [STAThread]
+    public static int Main(string[] args)
+    {
+        if (args.Length > 0)
+        {
+            // CLI mode — no UI
+            return RunCli(args);
+        }
+
+        // GUI mode
+        WinRT.ComWrappersSupport.InitializeComWrappers();
+        Application.Start((p) =>
+        {
+            var context = new DispatcherQueueSynchronizationContext(
+                DispatcherQueue.GetForCurrentThread());
+            SynchronizationContext.SetSynchronizationContext(context);
+            _ = new App();
+        });
+        return 0;
+    }
+}
+```
+
+### WPF App Constructor Removal
+
+WPF modules often created `new App()` to initialize the WPF `Application` and get `Application.Current.Dispatcher`. This is no longer needed — the WinUI 3 `Application.Start()` handles this.
+
+```csharp
+// DELETE (WPF pattern):
+_imageResizerApp = new App();
+// REPLACE with: Store DispatcherQueue explicitly (see Global DispatcherQueue Access above)
+```

+# XAML Migration Guide
+
+Detailed reference for migrating XAML from WPF to WinUI 3, based on the ImageResizer migration.
+
+## XML Namespace Declaration Changes
+
+### Before (WPF)
+
+```xml
+<Window xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
+        xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"

+### Key Changes
+
+| WPF Syntax | WinUI 3 Syntax | Notes |
+|------------|---------------|-------|
+| `clr-namespace:Foo` | `using:Foo` | CLR namespace mapping |
+| `clr-namespace:Foo;assembly=Bar` | `using:Foo` | Assembly qualification not needed |
+| `xmlns:ui="http://schemas.lepo.co/wpfui/2022/xaml"` | **Remove entirely** | WPF-UI namespace no longer needed |
+| `xmlns:p="clr-namespace:...Properties"` | **Remove** | No more `.resx` string bindings |
+| `sys:String` (from mscorlib) | `x:String` | XAML intrinsic types |
+| `sys:Int32` | `x:Int32` | XAML intrinsic types |
+| `sys:Boolean` | `x:Boolean` | XAML intrinsic types |
+| `sys:Double` | `x:Double` | XAML intrinsic types |
+
+## Unsupported Markup Extensions
+
+| WPF Markup Extension | WinUI 3 Alternative |
+|----------------------|---------------------|
+| `{DynamicResource Key}` | `{ThemeResource Key}` (theme-reactive) or `{StaticResource Key}` |
+| `{x:Static Type.Member}` | `{x:Bind}` to a static property, or code-behind |
+| `{x:Type local:MyType}` | Not supported; use code-behind |
+| `{x:Array}` | Not supported; create collections in code-behind |
+| `{x:Code}` | Not supported |
+
+### DynamicResource → ThemeResource
+
+```xml
+<!-- WPF -->
+<TextBlock Foreground="{DynamicResource MyBrush}" />
+
+<!-- WinUI 3 -->
+<TextBlock Foreground="{ThemeResource MyBrush}" />
+```
+
+`ThemeResource` automatically updates when the app theme changes (Light/Dark/HighContrast). For truly dynamic non-theme resources, set values in code-behind or use data binding.
+
+### x:Static Resource Strings → x:Uid
+
+This is the most pervasive XAML change. WPF used `{x:Static}` to bind to strongly-typed `.resx` resource strings. WinUI 3 uses `x:Uid` with `.resw` files.
+
+**WPF:**
+```xml
+<Button Content="{x:Static p:Resources.Cancel}" />
+<TextBlock Text="{x:Static p:Resources.Input_Header}" />
+```
+
+**WinUI 3:**
+```xml
+<Button x:Uid="Cancel" />
+<TextBlock x:Uid="Input_Header" />
+```
+
+In `Strings/en-us/Resources.resw`:
+```xml
+<data name="Cancel.Content" xml:space="preserve">
+    <value>Cancel</value>
+</data>
+<data name="Input_Header.Text" xml:space="preserve">
+    <value>Select a size</value>
+</data>
+```
+
+The `x:Uid` suffix (`.Content`, `.Text`, `.Header`, `.PlaceholderText`, etc.) matches the target property name.
+
+### DataType with x:Type → Remove
+
+**WPF:**
+```xml
+<DataTemplate DataType="{x:Type m:ResizeSize}">
+```
+
+**WinUI 3:**
+```xml
+<DataTemplate x:DataType="m:ResizeSize">
+```
+
+## WPF-UI (Lepo) Controls Removal
+
+If the module uses the `WPF-UI` library, replace all Lepo controls with native WinUI 3 equivalents.
+
+### Window
+
+```xml
+<!-- WPF (WPF-UI) -->
+<ui:FluentWindow
+    ExtendsContentIntoTitleBar="True"
+    WindowStartupLocation="CenterScreen">
+    <ui:TitleBar Title="Image Resizer" />
+    ...
+</ui:FluentWindow>
+
+<!-- WinUI 3 (native) -->
+<Window>
+    <!-- Title bar managed via code-behind: this.ExtendsContentIntoTitleBar = true; -->
+    ...
+</Window>
+```
+
+### App.xaml Resources
+
+```xml
+<!-- WPF (WPF-UI) -->
+<Application.Resources>
+    <ResourceDictionary>
+        <ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries>
+            <ui:ThemesDictionary Theme="Dark" />
+            <ui:ControlsDictionary />
+        </ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries>
+    </ResourceDictionary>
+</Application.Resources>
+
+<!-- WinUI 3 (native) -->
+<Application.Resources>
+    <ResourceDictionary>
+        <ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries>
+            <XamlControlsResources xmlns="using:Microsoft.UI.Xaml.Controls" />
+        </ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries>
+    </ResourceDictionary>
+</Application.Resources>
+```
+
+### Common Control Replacements
+
+```xml
+<!-- WPF-UI NumberBox -->
+<ui:NumberBox Value="{Binding Width}" />
+<!-- WinUI 3 -->
+<NumberBox Value="{x:Bind ViewModel.Width, Mode=TwoWay}" />
+
+<!-- WPF-UI InfoBar -->
+<ui:InfoBar Title="Warning" Message="..." IsOpen="True" Severity="Warning" />
+<!-- WinUI 3 -->
+<InfoBar Title="Warning" Message="..." IsOpen="True" Severity="Warning" />
+
+<!-- WPF-UI ProgressRing -->
+<ui:ProgressRing IsIndeterminate="True" />
+<!-- WinUI 3 -->
+<ProgressRing IsActive="True" />
+
+<!-- WPF-UI SymbolIcon -->
+<ui:SymbolIcon Symbol="Add" />
+<!-- WinUI 3 -->
+<SymbolIcon Symbol="Add" />
+```
+
+### Button Patterns
+
+```xml
+<!-- WPF -->
+<Button IsDefault="True" Content="OK" />
+<Button IsCancel="True" Content="Cancel" />
+
+<!-- WinUI 3 (no IsDefault/IsCancel) -->
+<Button Style="{StaticResource AccentButtonStyle}" Content="OK" />
+<Button Content="Cancel" />
+<!-- Handle Enter/Escape keys in code-behind if needed -->
+```
+
+## Style and Template Changes
+
+### Triggers → VisualStateManager
+
+WPF `Triggers`, `DataTriggers`, and `EventTriggers` are not supported.
+
+**WPF:**
+```xml
+<Style TargetType="Button">
+    <Style.Triggers>
+        <Trigger Property="IsMouseOver" Value="True">
+            <Setter Property="Background" Value="LightBlue"/>
+        </Trigger>
+        <DataTrigger Binding="{Binding IsEnabled}" Value="False">
+            <Setter Property="Opacity" Value="0.5"/>
+        </DataTrigger>
+    </Style.Triggers>
+</Style>
+```
+
+**WinUI 3:**
+```xml
+<Style TargetType="Button">
+    <Setter Property="Template">
+        <Setter.Value>
+            <ControlTemplate TargetType="Button">
+                <Grid x:Name="RootGrid" Background="{TemplateBinding Background}">
+                    <VisualStateManager.VisualStateGroups>
+                        <VisualStateGroup x:Name="CommonStates">
+                            <VisualState x:Name="PointerOver">
+                                <VisualState.Setters>
+                                    <Setter Target="RootGrid.Background" Value="LightBlue"/>
+                                </VisualState.Setters>
+                            </VisualState>
+                        </VisualStateGroup>
+                    </VisualStateManager.VisualStateGroups>
+                    <ContentPresenter />
+                </Grid>
+            </ControlTemplate>
+        </Setter.Value>
+    </Setter>
+</Style>
+```
+
+### No Binding in Setter.Value
+
+```xml
+<!-- WPF (works) -->
+<Setter Property="Foreground" Value="{Binding TextColor}"/>
+
+<!-- WinUI 3 (does NOT work — use StaticResource) -->
+<Setter Property="Foreground" Value="{StaticResource TextColorBrush}"/>
+```
+
+### Visual State Name Changes
+
+| WPF | WinUI 3 |
+|-----|---------|
+| `MouseOver` | `PointerOver` |
+| `Disabled` | `Disabled` |
+| `Pressed` | `Pressed` |
+
+## Resource Dictionary Changes
+
+### Window.Resources → Grid.Resources
+
+WinUI 3 `Window` is NOT a `DependencyObject` — no `Window.Resources`, `DataContext`, or `VisualStateManager`.
+
+```xml
+<!-- WPF -->
+<Window>
+    <Window.Resources>
+        <SolidColorBrush x:Key="MyBrush" Color="Red"/>
+    </Window.Resources>
+    <Grid>...</Grid>
+</Window>
+
+<!-- WinUI 3 -->
+<Window>
+    <Grid>
+        <Grid.Resources>
+            <SolidColorBrush x:Key="MyBrush" Color="Red"/>
+        </Grid.Resources>
+        ...
+    </Grid>
+</Window>
+```
+
+### Theme Dictionaries
+
+```xml
+<ResourceDictionary>
+    <ResourceDictionary.ThemeDictionaries>
+        <ResourceDictionary x:Key="Light">
+            <SolidColorBrush x:Key="MyBrush" Color="#FF000000"/>
+        </ResourceDictionary>
+        <ResourceDictionary x:Key="Dark">
+            <SolidColorBrush x:Key="MyBrush" Color="#FFFFFFFF"/>
+        </ResourceDictionary>
+        <ResourceDictionary x:Key="HighContrast">
+            <SolidColorBrush x:Key="MyBrush" Color="{ThemeResource SystemColorWindowTextColor}"/>
+        </ResourceDictionary>
+    </ResourceDictionary.ThemeDictionaries>
+</ResourceDictionary>
+```
+
+## URI Scheme Changes
+
+| WPF | WinUI 3 |
+|-----|---------|
+| `pack://application:,,,/MyAssembly;component/image.png` | `ms-appx:///Assets/image.png` |
+| `pack://application:,,,/image.png` | `ms-appx:///image.png` |
+| Relative path `../image.png` | `ms-appx:///image.png` |
+
+Assets directory convention: `Resources/` → `Assets/<Module>/`
+
+## Data Binding Changes
+
+### {Binding} vs {x:Bind}
+
+Both are available. Prefer `{x:Bind}` for compile-time safety and performance.
+
+| Feature | `{Binding}` | `{x:Bind}` |
+|---------|------------|------------|
+| Default mode | `OneWay` | **`OneTime`** (explicit `Mode=OneWay` required!) |
+| Context | `DataContext` | Code-behind class |
+| Resolution | Runtime | Compile-time |
+| Performance | Reflection-based | Compiled |
+| Function binding | No | Yes |
+
+### WPF-Specific Binding Features to Remove
+
+```xml
+<!-- These WPF-only features must be removed or rewritten -->
+<TextBox Text="{Binding Value, UpdateSourceTrigger=PropertyChanged}" />
+<!-- WinUI 3: UpdateSourceTrigger not needed; TextBox uses PropertyChanged by default -->
+<TextBox Text="{x:Bind ViewModel.Value, Mode=TwoWay}" />
+
+{Binding RelativeSource={RelativeSource Self}, ...}
+<!-- WinUI 3: Use x:Bind which binds to the page itself, or use ElementName -->
+
+<ItemsControl ItemsSource="{Binding}" />
+<!-- WinUI 3: Must specify explicit path -->
+<ItemsControl ItemsSource="{x:Bind ViewModel.Items}" />
+```
+
+## WPF-Only Window Properties to Remove
+
+These properties exist on WPF `Window` but not WinUI 3:
+
+```xml
+<!-- Remove from XAML — handle in code-behind via AppWindow API -->
+SizeToContent="Height"
+WindowStartupLocation="CenterScreen"
+ResizeMode="NoResize"
+ExtendsContentIntoTitleBar="True"  <!-- Set in code-behind -->
+```
+
+## XAML Control Property Changes
+
+| WPF Property | WinUI 3 Property | Notes |
+|-------------|-----------------|-------|
+| `Focusable` | `IsTabStop` | Different name |
+| `SnapsToDevicePixels` | Not available | WinUI handles pixel snapping internally |
+| `UseLayoutRounding` | `UseLayoutRounding` | Same |
+| `IsHitTestVisible` | `IsHitTestVisible` | Same |
+| `TextBox.VerticalScrollBarVisibility` | `ScrollViewer.VerticalScrollBarVisibility` (attached) | Attached property |
+
+## XAML Formatting (XamlStyler)
+
+After migration, run XamlStyler to normalize formatting:
+- Alphabetize xmlns declarations and element attributes
+- Add UTF-8 BOM to all XAML files
+- Normalize comment spacing: `<!-- text -->` → `<!--  text  -->`
+
+PowerToys command: `.\.pipelines\applyXamlStyling.ps1 -Main`

 A key point is for everyone to understand the approach that will be taken. We want to be sure that any work done will be accepted. Larger-scope items will require a spec to outline the approach and allow for discussion. Specs help collaborators consider different solutions, describe feature behavior, and plan for errors. Achieving agreement in a spec before writing code often results in simpler code and less wasted effort.

+# Command Palette Extension Gallery
+
+This document describes how Command Palette (CmdPal) discovers extensions for
+the in-app **Extension gallery** page.
+
+## At a glance
+
+- The gallery loads a single JSON feed called `extensions.json` from a remote
+  HTTPS URL, parses it, and renders the entries.
+- The default feed lives in the external repo
+  **`microsoft/CmdPal-Extensions`** at
+  `https://aka.ms/CmdPal-ExtensionsJson`.
+- Feed content + icon images are cached on disk so the page works offline and
+  survives short network hiccups.
+- There is no WinGet discovery, no per-extension `manifest.json` fetch, and no
+  other network call for rendering the list.
+
+## Implementation pointers
+
+| Concern | File |
+| --- | --- |
+| Fetching, parsing, caching, pruning | `Microsoft.CmdPal.Common/ExtensionGallery/Services/ExtensionGalleryService.cs` |
+| Resolving which URL to fetch | `Microsoft.CmdPal.Common/ExtensionGallery/Services/GalleryFeedUrlProvider.cs` + `Microsoft.CmdPal.UI/Helpers/GalleryServiceRegistration.cs` |
+| HTTP + on-disk cache | `Microsoft.CmdPal.Common/ExtensionGallery/Services/ExtensionGalleryHttpClient.cs` (wraps `Microsoft.CmdPal.Common/Services/HttpCaching/HttpCachingClient`) |
+| Feed + entry models | `Microsoft.CmdPal.Common/ExtensionGallery/Models/` |
+
+## Feed URL resolution
+
+`ExtensionGalleryService.GetFeedUrl()` returns, in order:
+
+1. The user-configured URL from CmdPal settings (`SettingsModel.GalleryFeedUrl`,
+   exposed via the hidden `InternalPage` settings page). Any non-empty value
+   wins. Mostly used for local testing against a custom feed.
+2. Otherwise, the built-in default
+   `https://aka.ms/CmdPal-ExtensionsJson`.
+
+Local `file://` URIs are allowed too — `FetchFeedDocumentAsync` reads the file
+directly and bypasses the HTTP cache.
+
+## Feed format
+
+The feed is a single wrapped JSON document with inline entries:
+
+```json
+{
+  "$schema": "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/microsoft/CmdPal-Extensions/main/.github/schemas/gallery.schema.json",
+  "extensions": [
+    {
+      "id": "sample-extension",
+      "title": "Sample Extension",
+      "description": "A sample extension demonstrating the gallery feed format.",
+      "author": { "name": "Microsoft", "url": "https://github.com/microsoft" },
+      "homepage": "https://github.com/microsoft/CmdPal-Extensions",
+      "iconUrl": "https://.../icon.png",
+      "screenshotUrls": ["https://.../screenshot-1.png"],
+      "tags": ["sample"],
+      "installSources": [
+        { "type": "winget",  "id":  "Contoso.SampleExtension" },
+        { "type": "msstore", "id":  "9P…" },
+        { "type": "url",     "uri": "https://github.com/contoso/sample/releases/latest" }
+      ],
+      "detection": { "packageFamilyName": "Contoso.SampleExtension_1234567890abc" }
+    }
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+Only the `extensions` array is read at runtime. The authoritative JSON
+schema for an entry lives in the upstream feed repo
+([`microsoft/CmdPal-Extensions`](https://github.com/microsoft/CmdPal-Extensions));
+don't duplicate it here — it drifts.
+
+### Required + optional entry fields
+
+| Field | Required | Notes |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| `id` | yes | Lowercase stable identifier; entries with empty id are dropped. |
+| `title` | yes | Display name. |
+| `description` | yes | Shown in list and detail views. |
+| `author.name` | yes | `author.url` optional. |
+| `installSources` | yes | At least one entry; see [Install sources](#install-sources). |
+| `homepage`, `iconUrl`, `screenshotUrls`, `tags`, `detection.packageFamilyName` | no | All optional. |
+
+Relative `iconUrl` / `screenshotUrls` are resolved against the feed URL's
+directory (useful only for local / `file://` feeds during development).
+
+## Install sources
+
+Each entry's `installSources` is consumed by
+`ExtensionGalleryItemViewModel` to decide which install affordances to show.
+
+| `type` | Required field | Behaviour |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| `winget` | `id` | Enables the "Install via WinGet" button (uses the shared WinGet service), and joins in-flight install progress + installed/update status. |
+| `msstore` | `id` | Opens `ms-windows-store://pdp/?ProductId={id}`. |
+| `url` | `uri` | Shown as a "GitHub" or "Website" link depending on host. |
+
+An entry can declare any combination. Sources the runtime does not recognise
+are surfaced as an "unknown source" indicator.
+
+## Fetching and caching
+
+`ExtensionGalleryService` uses `ExtensionGalleryHttpClient`, which wraps
+`HttpCachingClient` over a file-system cache. Both the feed JSON and any
+cacheable icon URLs are cached.
+
+| Setting | Value | Defined in |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| Cache root | `{AppCache}\GalleryCache\` | `ExtensionGalleryHttpClient.CacheDirectoryName` |
+| Feed TTL | 4 hours | `ExtensionGalleryHttpClient.DefaultTimeToLive` |
+| Icon TTL | 24 hours | `ExtensionGalleryService.IconCacheTtl` |
+| HTTP timeout | 15 s | `ExtensionGalleryHttpClient` |
+| `User-Agent` | `PowerToys-CmdPal/1.0` | `ExtensionGalleryHttpClient` |
+
+`{AppCache}` resolves to `ApplicationData.Current.LocalCacheFolder` when
+CmdPal runs packaged, and to
+`%LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\PowerToys\Microsoft.CmdPal\Cache\` when unpackaged
+(see `ApplicationInfoService.DetermineCacheDirectory`).
+
+### Fetch flow
+
+`GetExtensionsAsync` (normal load) and `RefreshAsync` (user-initiated
+refresh, `forceRefresh: true`) both go through `FetchWrappedFeedAsync`:
+
+1. Resolve the feed URL (see above).
+2. If the URL is local, read it from disk. Otherwise, hand it to
+   `HttpCachingClient.GetResourceAsync` which:
+   - Serves a fresh cached copy if one exists and TTL has not elapsed.
+   - Otherwise issues a conditional GET (ETag / `If-None-Match`). On `304
+     Not Modified` it refreshes the cache metadata and returns the cached
+     body.
+   - On network failure it returns the last-known cached body with
+     `UsedFallbackCache = true`, so the UI can show a "stale data" banner.
+3. Parse the JSON with the source-generated `GallerySerializationContext`
+   (strongly-typed `GalleryRemoteIndex` — no reflection, AOT-friendly).
+4. Drop entries with missing `id`, normalize relative `iconUrl` and
+   `screenshotUrls`, and resolve remote icon URIs through the same HTTP
+   cache so the UI binds to local `file://` URIs.
+5. On a successful forced refresh, `PruneCachedResources` deletes cache
+   entries that are no longer referenced by the current feed (old feed URL
+   and icon URLs that dropped out of the feed).
+
+### Fetch result flags
+
+`GetExtensionsAsync` returns a `GalleryFetchResult` that the view model uses
+for UI hints:
+
+| Flag | Meaning |
+| --- | --- |
+| `FromCache` | The feed came from cache without hitting the network (TTL still valid). |
+| `UsedFallbackCache` | A network request was attempted and failed, and the cached copy was served as fallback. The UI shows a stale-data info bar. |
+| `RateLimited` | The origin returned `429 Too Many Requests` and no fallback was available. The UI shows a rate-limit error. |
+
+## Authoring
+
+- Entries for the production gallery are added to the feed repo
+  `microsoft/CmdPal-Extensions`.
+- For editor validation of an entry, reference the schema published in the
+  upstream repo via the entry's `$schema` field.
+- Keep `id` stable once an extension is published — users may have it
+  installed and the gallery keys install status by id.
+- Prefer providing a `winget` source when the extension ships through App
+  Installer; the gallery uses it both for status ("Installed" / "Update
+  available") and for the in-app install button.
+- `detection.packageFamilyName` lets the gallery recognise an
+  already-installed packaged extension before WinGet metadata resolves.

+## Addenda II: Commands with Parameters
+
+Extensions will often want to provide commands that accept parameters from the
+user.
+
+To support this, we're adding a new page type. The `IParametersPage` is a page
+that allows an extension to define a set of parameters that the user can fill.
+These parameters can be of different types, such as:
+* Labels: static text that provides context or instructions.
+* String parameters: text input fields where the user can type a string.
+* Command parameters: interactive fields that allow the user to select from a
+  list of predefined commands, or just press a button to select an input.
+
+Interleaving labels with parameters allows extensions to create rich, guided
+input forms for their commands. These are a more lightweight solution than the
+current adaptive card content. 
+
+```csharp
+[uuid("a2590cc9-510c-4af7-b562-a6b56fe37f55")]
+interface IParameterRun requires INotifyPropChanged
+{
+};
+
+interface ILabelRun requires IParameterRun
+{
+    String Text{ get; };
+};
+
+interface IParameterValueRun requires IParameterRun
+{
+    String PlaceholderText{ get; };
+    Boolean NeedsValue{ get; }; // TODO! name is weird
+};
+
+interface IStringParameterRun requires IParameterValueRun
+{
+    String Text{ get; set; };
+
+    // TODO! do we need a way to validate string inputs?
+};
+
+interface ICommandParameterRun requires IParameterValueRun
+{
+    String DisplayText{ get; };
+    ICommand GetSelectValueCommand(UInt64 hostHwnd);
+    IIconInfo Icon{ get; }; // ? maybe
+
+};
+
+interface IParametersPage requires IPage
+{
+    IParameterRun[] Parameters{ get; };
+    IListItem Command{ get; };
+};
+```
+
+When we open a `IParametersPage`, we will render the `Parameters` in the search
+box. We'll move focus to the first `IParameterRun` that is not a `ILabelRun`.
+What those interactions looks like depends on the type of `IParameterRun`. 
+
+There are three basic types of inputs: strings, invokable commands, and lists.
+Strings are a special case that doesn't require a command to set the value.
+Lists and invokable commands are picked based on the type of the
+`SelectValueCommand`. Each of these are detailed below. 
+
+When all the parameters have `NeedsValue` set to `false`, we will display a
+single item to the user - the `Command` item. 
+
+### String parameters
+
+These are rendered as a text box within the search box. The user can type into
+it. Focus is moved to the next parameter when the user presses Enter or tab. 
+
+### Command parameters - Invokable Commands
+
+These are used when the `SelectValueCommand` is an `IInvokableCommand`.
+
+These are rendered as a button within the search box. The button text is
+`DisplayText` if it is set. If it is not, we will display the
+`PlaceholderText`. If the user clicks the button, we invoke the
+`SelectValueCommand` (and ignore the `CommandResult`).
+
+This is good for file pickers, date pickers, color pickers, etc. Anything that
+requires a custom UI to pick a value.
+
+When the extension has picked a value, it should set the `NeedsValue` to false. 
+The extension can also set the `DisplayText` and `Icon` to reflect the chosen value.
+
+When the user presses enter with the button focused, we will also invoke the
+`SelectValueCommand`.
+
+When the user presses tab, we will move focus to the next parameter.
+
+If the `NeedsValue` property is changed to `false` while it's focused, we will
+move focus to the next parameter.
+
+### Command parameters - List Commands
+
+These are used when the `SelectValueCommand` is an `IListPage` - both static and
+dynamic lists work similarly.
+
+These are rendered as a text box within the search box. When the user focuses
+the text box, we will display the items from the `IListPage` in the body of
+CmdPal. The user can then type to filter the list. This filtering will work the
+same way as any other list page in CmdPal - CmdPal will filter static lists, or
+pass the query to a dynamic list.
+
+The items in this list should all be `IListItem` objects with
+`IInvokableCommands`. Putting a `IPage` into one of these items will cause the
+user to navigate away from the parameters page, which would probably be
+unexpected.
+
+When the user picks an item from the list, the extension should handle that
+command by bubbling an event up to the `CommandRun`, and setting the `Value`,
+`DisplayText`, and `Icon` properties, and setting `NeedsValue` to false.
+
+When the user presses enter with the text box focused, we will invoke the
+command of the selected item in the list. 
+
+When the user presses tab, we will move focus to the next parameter.
+
+If the `NeedsValue` property is changed to `false` while it's focused, we will
+move focus to the next parameter.
+
+### Examples
+
+Lets say you had a command like "Create a note \${title} in \${folder}".
+`title` is a string input, and `folder` is a static list of folders. 
+
+The extension author can then define a `IParametersPage` with four runs in it:
+* A `ILabelRun` for "Create a note"
+* A `IStringParameterRun` for the `title`
+* A `ILabelRun` for "in"
+* A `ICommandParameterRun` for the `folder`. The `Command` will be a
+  `IListPage`, where the items are possible folders
+
+In this example, the user can pick the "create note" command, then type the
+title, hit enter/tab, and then pick a folder from the list, then hit enter to
+run the command.
+
+Samples for the parameters page are implemented over in 
+[the sample extension](../../ext/SamplePagesExtension/Pages/ParameterSamples.cs)

+
+Extensions will often want to provide rich search experiences for their users.
+
+This addenda is broken into multiple draft specs currently. These represent
+different approaches to the same goals. 
+
+* **A**: [Rich Search Box](./drafts/RichSearchBox-draft-A.md)

+As of Nov 2025, we're implementing a simple version of draft C in the host.

+In this version, if the extension implements `IDynamicListPage`, and also

+
+For an example, see

+
+In my head, I am still leaning towards a more full-featured version of draft C,
+but with full CommandItem's in the `ISearchUpdateArgs` instead of just strings.
+We'd almost need a new page type to support that, where the extension can add
+`ICommandItem`s to the search box directly.

+# PowerToys Installer & Update Diagnostics
+
+A step-by-step guide for diagnosing installer and update issues reported by users.
+
+## Quick Reference: Key Files
+
+| File/Folder | Path | Contains |
+|---|---|---|
+| UpdateState.json | `%LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\PowerToys\UpdateState.json` | Persisted update state machine |
+| Runner logs | `%LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\PowerToys\RunnerLogs\runner-log_*.log` | Startup, update checks, cleanup |
+| Update logs | `%LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\PowerToys\UpdateLogs\update-log_*.log` | PowerToys.Update.exe activity |
+| Updates folder | `%LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\PowerToys\Updates\` | Downloaded installer files |
+
+> **Note:** These paths use `%LOCALAPPDATA%` (per-user AppData) regardless of whether PowerToys was installed per-user or per-machine. The data/settings location is always per-user.
+
+## Update State Values
+
+From `src/common/updating/updateState.h` (`UpdateState::State` enum):
+
+| Value | Name | Meaning |
+|---|---|---|
+| 0 | upToDate | No update needed |
+| 1 | errorDownloading | Download or install failed, will retry |
+| 2 | readyToDownload | New version found, not yet downloaded |
+| 3 | readyToInstall | Installer downloaded, waiting for user action |
+| 4 | networkError | GitHub API call failed |
+
+---
+
+## Symptom: Old update installers accumulating on disk
+
+### What to ask the user for
+
+1. Contents of `UpdateState.json`
+2. Runner logs (last few days from `RunnerLogs\`)
+3. Update logs (from `UpdateLogs\`, if they exist)
+4. List of files in `Updates\` folder (names + sizes)
+
+### Step 1: Check the running version
+
+In runner logs, look for the startup line:
+
+```
+[info] Scoobe: product_version=v0.XX.X last_version_run=v0.XX.X
+```
+
+- **If version < v0.73.0**: The pre-download cleanup (PR #27908) is missing. Each downloaded installer accumulates because cleanup only runs at startup when state is `upToDate`. Ask the user to manually upgrade to the latest version.
+- **If version >= v0.73.0**: The pre-download cleanup exists. Accumulation should not happen under normal conditions. Continue to Step 2.
+
+### Step 2: Check UpdateState.json
+
+```jsonc
+{"state": 3, "downloadedInstallerFilename": "powertoyssetup-0.98.1-x64.exe" /* additional fields may be present */}
+```
+
+- **state = 0 (upToDate)**: Cleanup should run at startup. If files are accumulating, check runner logs for "Failed to delete" warnings (Step 4).
+- **state = 3 (readyToInstall)**: An installer is downloaded but never installed. Cleanup at startup is skipped (by design, to preserve the pending installer). On v0.73+, cleanup can still occur when a future update check triggers a new download (pre-download cleanup path).
+- **state = 1 (errorDownloading)**: A previous download or install failed. Startup cleanup is skipped (state is not `upToDate`). On v0.73+, cleanup runs before the next installer download is attempted.
+- **state = 2 or 4**: Startup cleanup is skipped. On v0.73+, cleanup runs before the next installer download is attempted.
+
+### Step 3: Check if PowerToys.Update.exe has ever run
+
+- **UpdateLogs directory missing**: This suggests `PowerToys.Update.exe` may never have been launched, or it did not progress far enough to create logs. The user may never have triggered an install, or Stage 1 may have failed before Stage 2 could run.
+- **UpdateLogs exist but show only "logger is initialized"**: The exe launched but the command-line argument didn't match any action (possible argument parsing issue).
+- **UpdateLogs show install activity**: The update process ran. Check for success/failure.
+
+### Step 4: Check runner logs for cleanup evidence
+
+Search for these patterns:
+
+| Log pattern | Meaning |
+|---|---|
+| `Failed to delete installer file ... Access is denied` | File locked by AV, another process, or permissions issue |
+| `Failed to delete log file ...` | Same, for old log files |
+| `Discovered new version` | Periodic update check ran |
+| `New version is already downloaded` | State is `readyToInstall` and filename matches — no re-download, no cleanup |
+| No cleanup-related entries at all | Inconclusive by itself — `cleanup_updates()` is silent on success. Corroborate with the Updates folder contents (Step 5) and the running version (Step 1). |
+
+### Step 5: Check the Updates folder contents
+
+- **All different versions**: Cleanup likely did not run across multiple update cycles. Confirm with the running version (Step 1) and update state before concluding a state gate issue.
+- **Duplicate filenames**: Unusual — would suggest repeated download without cleanup.
+- **Single file matching `downloadedInstallerFilename`**: Normal for `readyToInstall` state.
+
+### Common root causes
+
+| Root cause | Evidence | Fix |
+|---|---|---|
+| Running pre-v0.73.0 binary | `product_version` < v0.73.0 in runner log | Manually upgrade to latest |
+| State stuck at `readyToInstall` (pre-v0.73) | `"state": 3` in UpdateState.json, no UpdateLogs | Manually upgrade to latest |
+| File lock preventing deletion | "Failed to delete ... Access is denied" in runner logs | Check AV software, reboot and retry |
+| Update installer never launched | No UpdateLogs directory | Check if update notifications are disabled by GPO or setting |
+| Install fails silently | UpdateLogs show init but no install activity | Check related issues: #46966, #46967, #46969 |

+during installations, presentations, or any scenario where you need to
+temporarily override power settings without permanently changing them.
+
+Awake supports multiple modes including indefinite keep-awake, timed
+intervals, and scheduled expiration. The display can be kept on or allowed
+to turn off independently of the system sleep state.
+
+## Properties
+
+The Awake module supports the following configurable properties:
+
+### keepDisplayOn
+
+Controls whether the display remains on while Awake is active.
+
+**Type:** boolean  
+**Default:** `true`  
+**Description:** When `true`, prevents the display from turning off. When
+`false`, only prevents system sleep while allowing the display to turn off
+according to power settings.
+
+### mode
+
+Specifies the Awake operating mode.
+
+**Type:** integer  
+**Allowed values:**
+
+- `0` - Off (Awake is disabled).

+- `3` - Keep awake until a specific date/time.
+
+**Default:** `0`
+
+### intervalHours
+
+Number of hours to keep the system awake (used when mode is `2`).
+
+**Type:** integer  
+**Range:** `0` to `999`  
+**Default:** `0`
+
+### intervalMinutes
+
+Number of minutes to keep the system awake (used when mode is `2`).
+
+**Type:** integer  
+**Range:** `0` to `59`  
+**Default:** `1`
+
+### expirationDateTime
+
+The date and time when Awake should automatically disable (used when mode is `3`).
+
+**Type:** string (ISO 8601 datetime format)  
+**Format:** `"YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm:ss.fffffffzzz"`  
+**Example:** `"2025-12-31T23:59:59.0000000-08:00"`
+
+### customTrayTimes
+
+Custom time intervals displayed in the system tray context menu for quick activation.
