The Frame tool (K, its own toolbar slot after the Crop group) draws a
rectangular or elliptical frame; the options bar picks the shape, Shift
constrains to a square or circle and Alt draws from the centre. A frame
drawn over the selected pixel layer's content takes that layer in;
otherwise it is an empty frame.
Frames are built as Frame from Layers builds them: a group clipped by a
layer mask (rectangular or anti-aliased elliptical). The new engine
command layer.new.frame does it in one Session::edit, so one undo step.

New Perspective Crop tool in the Crop flyout (C): drag a box or click four
corners, drag corners independently onto a skewed object, perspective grid
(Show Grid), Enter commits, Esc cancels. W/H/Resolution come from the Crop
tool's fields (Front Image, Clear), or the quad's mean side lengths.
Engine: image.perspectiveCrop {corners, width?, height?, resolution?,
interpolation?} maps the quad onto an upright canvas through the
quad-to-rectangle homography (Heckbert's square-to-quad map, inverted):
every raster layer, mask, alpha channel and the Quick Mask, one undo step.
The Background stays opaque over the background colour; type, shape, fill
and smart object layers are rasterized first; vector geometry follows the
nearest affine map. Non-convex, self-crossing, counter-clockwise or
degenerate quads are refused with an error.
algo: warp_surface_clipped bounds the per-tile warp by the new canvas even
when a layer reaches past the map's horizon; convex_quad, quad_size,
quad_to_rect.

Photoshop's Artboard tool in the Move flyout (V, ⇧V cycles Move ↔ Artboard):
dragging on an empty spot draws a new board (`layer.new.artboard`), clicking a
board selects it, dragging it moves it with its contents, and the selected
board's edge and corner handles resize it (`layer.artboard.set`,
moveContents: false). Each gesture is one undo step. Options bar: Size preset,
W/H, Make Portrait, Make Landscape, Add New Artboard. Original toolbar glyph
(assets/icons/artboard.svg, ATTRIBUTION.md row).

The Type flyout (T, Shift+T cycle) gains Vertical Type Mask and Horizontal
Type Mask, in Photoshop's order. They type like the Type tools, with the
canvas under Quick Mask's colour and the glyphs clear while editing. On
commit the glyph coverage replaces the selection; no layer is left behind
and the whole session is one "Type Mask" history step. Escape always
cancels and leaves the selection unchanged.
The commit runs a new engine command, type.createSelection: a type layer's
glyphs (optionally removing that layer, the tools' hidden working text) or
type.create's keys directly, with new/add/subtract/intersect and an
anti-aliasing override. type.create's layer building is shared through
type_cmds::new_text_layer.
Original dashed-T icons (ATTRIBUTION.md), tool label translations in every
catalog, README tool list and the gaps/parity docs updated.

The Pen flyout (P / Shift+P) now holds Pen, Freeform Pen and Curvature Pen.
Freeform Pen: a drag draws freehand; on release the trace is fitted with
cubic Beziers within the options bar's Curve Fit (default 2 px) by
photocraft_vector::trace::fit_trace (Schneider, "An Algorithm for
Automatically Fitting Digitized Curves", Graphics Gems 1990, the fitting
Make Work Path already uses), keeping turns sharper than 60 degrees as
corners. Releasing on the start point closes the path.
Curvature Pen: each click adds a smooth point and the path runs through
every point (Catmull-Rom style handles from
photocraft_vector::edit::curvature_knots); dragging a point moves it,
double-clicking toggles corner/smooth, clicking the first point closes,
Enter/Esc finish and Backspace removes the last point, as with the Pen.
Both commit through the Pen's path: a shape layer in Shape mode, else the
targeted vector mask, else the work path, as one History step.

Both tools join the Marquee flyout (no key, outside the M / Shift+M cycle,
as in Photoshop). A click selects the one-pixel row (column) under the
pointer across the whole canvas; a press-drag moves the line until the
release. The selection goes through select.rect, so Shift adds, Alt
subtracts, Shift+Alt intersects and the options-bar modes apply; Feather
applies, Anti-alias and Style/Width/Height are greyed. Selection-mode
cursor badges, the selection right-click menu and snapping cover them.
Original row/column glyphs with an ATTRIBUTION.md row; tool names in all
catalogs; README tool list and the G6 / ui-parity rows updated.

Progress docs per craftrules standards/progress-docs.md: target-app parity (merges parity-estimate.md), gaps, roadmap with alpha gate, readiness by audience (full / mainstream / essentials) with Opus 5.5 hours, and UI, brush, format, hardware and localization parity docs. docs/parity.md is now docs/parity-checklist.md.
The Windows test failure (file_dialog::tests::save_dialogs_remember_where_each_document_was_last_saved) is pre-existing on main: the test hard-codes POSIX paths.
