Summary

In Methane Kit v0.8.2, the following improvements have been introduced:

  • Compiler Compatibility: Build compatibility has been fixed for Visual Studio 2026 (MSVC v143+), latest Clang/AppleClang on macOS Sequoia/Xcode 26, and GCC. New CMake presets for VS2026 have been added alongside existing VS2022 presets.
  • Vulkan RHI Stability and Validation Fixes: Multiple Vulkan validation errors have been resolved, including semaphore lifecycle issues (VUID-vkAcquireNextImageKHR-semaphore-01779), descriptor set copy by-binding fix, empty pipeline stage masks (VUID-vkCmdPipelineBarrier), HLSL reflection extensions handling (VUID-VkShaderModuleCreateInfo-pCode-08742), and primitive restart behavior on MoltenVK. The per-device Vulkan dispatcher initialization bug on multi-GPU systems has been fixed. (close Validation Error when running #158)
  • Command Execution Stability: A race condition in CommandQueueTracking that could cause command list resets to fail (WaitUntilCompleted / CompleteExecution FIFO ordering) has been fixed by refactoring ProcessExecutingCommandListSet into an atomic pop-and-wait operation.
  • MacOS / Metal Build Fixes: Metal Toolchain download is now automated in CI for Xcode 26+. Objective-C ARC handling in Vulkan RHI for Apple platforms has been fixed. MacOS app delegate now suppresses secure restorable state warnings and disables unsupported window state restoration.

Graphics libraries

  • Fixed RenderCommandList::UpdateDrawingState logic inversion that incorrectly skipped primitive type change tracking.
  • CommandListSet::GetCombinedName() is now const (member made mutable).
  • CommandQueueTracking: Replaced GetNextExecutingCommandListSet() with PopNextExecutingCommandListSet() that atomically pops and waits, preventing a race between WaitUntilCompleted, CompleteExecution, and the background execution-waiting thread; added ProcessExecutingCommandListSet template helper and IsExecutingOnFrameIndex for correct FIFO-ordered frame completion.
  • Added new Methane::StbImage.h wrapper header that correctly suppresses compiler warnings and conditionally disables SIMD for GCC debug builds, replacing ad-hoc stb_image.h inclusions across ImageLoader.cpp, AppLin.cpp.

Vulkan RHI

  • Semaphore lifecycle fix: Removed the per-frame vk::Fence from RenderContext::FrameSync; image acquisition now waits on the render queue WaitUntilCompleted instead of a CPU-side fence, correctly satisfying VUID-vkAcquireNextImageKHR-semaphore-01779. Added g_image_acquire_timeout_ns (5 s, 64-bit) to replace the UINT64_MAX timeout.
  • Execution-completed semaphore: Made m_vk_unique_execution_completed_semaphore lazily created and mutable; the semaphore is now only created and signalled for render command list sets that target a specific frame buffer, eliminating VUID-vkQueueSubmit-pSignalSemaphores-00067 errors caused by permanently-signalled semaphores on non-frame command lists.
  • Device dispatcher: VULKAN_HPP_DEFAULT_DISPATCHER.init(vk::Device) is no longer called in Device constructor (fixes multi-GPU dispatch to the wrong ICD); it is now called once per RenderContext in Initialize().
  • HLSL reflection extensions: Added VK_GOOGLE_HLSL_FUNCTIONALITY_1 and VK_GOOGLE_USER_TYPE device extensions; when not supported, SPIRV byte code is stripped of reflection instructions via RemoveHlslReflectionFromSpirv() before shader module creation, fixing VUID-VkShaderModuleCreateInfo-pCode-08742.
  • Descriptor set copy: Fixed ProgramBindings mutable descriptor copy to iterate per-binding rather than using a single flat count, preventing out-of-bounds descriptor access with non-contiguous bindings.
  • Pipeline barrier stage masks: Empty srcStageMask/dstStageMask are now replaced with eTopOfPipe/eBottomOfPipe respectively, fixing VUID-vkCmdPipelineBarrier-srcStageMask-03937 / dstStageMask-03937.
  • Primitive restart (MoltenVK): RenderState now detects VK_KHR_portability_subset and automatically enables primitive restart for strip/dynamic topologies on devices that cannot disable it, silencing MoltenVK "Metal does not support disabling primitive restart" warnings.
  • Removed MoltenVK workarounds for VkSubmitInfo + VkTimelineSemaphoreSubmitInfo which are no longer necessary with the current Vulkan SDK.
  • Removed stale DebugUtilsMessengerCallback message-ID suppression filters that are no longer needed; callback signature updated to use vk:: types directly.
  • Fixed RenderPass::CreateNativeFrameBuffer to validate attachment texture dimensions against frame size.
  • Disabled Objective-C ARC for RenderContext.mm and PlatformExt.mm (workaround for vulkan.hpp constant-expression CAMetalLayer issue with ARC).
  • Added explicit [m_metal_view release] in the Apple RenderContext destructor for non-ARC builds.

Tests

  • Added unit tests to cover RenderCommandList drawing with multiple primitive types in a single command list (Draw and DrawIndexed), covering the PrimitiveType change tracking bug.

Build

  • Added VS2026 (Visual Studio 18 2026) CMake configure and build presets for Win64/Win32 × DX/VK × Default/Profile/Scan variants.
  • Build.bat default generator changed to VS2026; --vs2022 flag added for backward compatibility.
  • Build/Unix/CI/InstallMacOsPrerequisites.sh script added to download Metal Toolchain on Xcode 26+.
  • Fixed ARM64 architecture detection in CMake/MethaneModules.cmake for CMAKE_SYSTEM_PROCESSOR = "ARM64".
  • Added CLAUDE.md with project guidance for Claude Code.

Continuous Integration

  • All CI workflows updated to use VS2026 presets on Windows.
  • All GitHub Actions updated: actions/checkout@v7, actions/cache@v6, actions/upload-artifact@v7, github/codeql-action/*@v4.
  • Sonar Scanner migrated from the legacy RunSonarScanner.sh shell script to SonarSource/sonarqube-scan-action@v8.2.0 with separate steps for push and pull-request events.
  • Added macOS prerequisites installation step in CI build, CodeQL, and Sonar scan workflows.
  • Disabled CodeQL scan on macOS due to Metal Toolchain availability issues.
  • Added test script Build/Unix/CI/RunApplicationsTest.sh which runs all applications in GUI mode and captures runtime and validation errors printed to console output.

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

Mergeability Score: 🟡 Moderate · up to 290f6

The PR changes Vulkan surface-loss recovery and build/CI configuration; the current recovery path can leak native Vulkan surfaces during repeated failures, while related synchronization and CI/build follow-ups remain unresolved. Merge should wait for the Vulkan ownership issue to be fixed or explicitly accepted by the owner.

Poem

A rabbit checks the build at dawn,
VS2026 presets now spawn.
Vulkan waits for frames to clear,
Metal tools arrive when needed here.
New headers guide each pixel’s flight—
Hop, hop, the pipelines compile right.

293-306: 🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Exit after swapchain reset on surface loss.

ResetNativeSwapchain() clears m_frame_sync_pool. This invalidates curr_frame_sync. Lines 305-306 then access that invalid reference and register a semaphore that acquireNextImageKHR did not signal.

After eErrorSurfaceLostKHR, return from this call after reset, or restart acquisition with a new FrameSync reference.

Proposed fix
     case eErrorSurfaceLostKHR:
         m_vk_unique_surface.release();
         m_vk_unique_surface = Platform::CreateVulkanSurfaceForWindow(
             static_cast<System&>(Rhi::ISystem::Get()).GetNativeInstance(), m_app_env);

Inline comments:
In @.github/workflows/ci-codeql-scan.yml:
- Around line 64-66: Update the actions/checkout step in the pull_request job to
set persist-credentials to false, ensuring repository-controlled CMake commands
cannot access the checkout token while preserving the existing checkout
behavior.

In @.github/workflows/ci-sonar-scan.yml:
- Around line 305-310: Update the Sonar arguments in both Sonar steps to
construct sonar.projectVersion using GitHub expressions for
env.METHANE_VERSION_MAJOR, env.METHANE_VERSION_MINOR, env.METHANE_VERSION_PATCH,
and env.METHANE_VERSION_BUILD instead of shell-variable syntax; leave the
existing env.test_results reference unchanged.
- Around line 69-72: Update the job-level permissions block to grant contents
read access alongside the existing checks and pull-requests permissions, so both
actions/checkout steps can access repository content.
- Around line 130-135: Update the workflow around the pull-request checkout and
dependent Sonar steps so fork-controlled builds and scans run under pull_request
without repository secrets; remove the pull_request_target fork path rather than
enabling allow-unsafe-pr-checkout. Move result processing that requires trust
into a separate trusted job, preserving the existing scan behavior and using the
workflow’s current job/step symbols to pass results between jobs.

In `@Build/README.md`:
- Around line 35-39: Update the Metal Toolchain prerequisite documentation
around the xcodebuild command to state that downloading it requires Xcode 26 or
later, consistent with the CI helper’s version guard; keep the broader Xcode
14-or-later prerequisite distinct.

In `@Build/Unix/CI/InstallMacOsPrerequisites.sh`:
- Around line 4-6: Update version_ge to use a macOS/BSD-compatible version
comparison instead of sort -V, ensuring older versions evaluate as less than
newer versions and preventing unsupported MetalToolchain downloads.

In `@CLAUDE.md`:
- Around line 9-17: Update the CMake requirements documentation near the general
“CMake 3.24+ is required” statement to separately specify that all VS2026-*
presets require CMake 4.2 or later because they use Visual Studio 18 2026; leave
the requirement for other presets unchanged.

In `@CMake/MethaneModules.cmake`:
- Around line 29-30: Update the architecture detection condition in the relevant
CMake logic to recognize ARM64, arm64, AARCH64, and aarch64 processor aliases
before the pointer-size fallback, while preserving the existing ARM64_V8A
handling and arm64 output.

In `@Externals/DirectXShaderCompilerBinary.cmake`:
- Around line 6-7: Update the DirectXShaderCompilerBinary FetchContent
declaration’s GIT_TAG from the mutable update_dxc_v1-9-2602 branch to the full
immutable commit SHA corresponding to the intended 1.9.2602 contents; leave the
existing version comment unchanged.

In `@Externals/iOS-Toolchain.cmake`:
- Around line 1093-1121: Update the CMAKE_TRY_COMPILE_PLATFORM_VARIABLES entries
for C and Objective-C language configurations to use the standard
CMAKE_<LANG>_FLAGS_<CONFIG> variable names, including the corresponding CXX,
OBJC, and OBJCXX entries, while preserving the existing language and link flag
propagation.

In `@Externals/Tracy.cmake`:
- Line 4: Align the Tracy version across both sites: at Externals/Tracy.cmake
lines 4-4, retain or update the Tracy pin according to the intended resolved
version; at Externals/README.md lines 30-30, document that same version. Ensure
the dependency inventory matches the actual package fetched.

In `@Modules/Common/Primitives/Include/Methane/StbImage.h`:
- Around line 19-21: Update the MethanePrimitives packaging so installed
consumers can resolve the stb_image.h include used by StbImage.h: install and
export the STB dependency with its headers and target. If STB cannot be
packaged, stop installing StbImage.h and keep it private instead; preserve the
existing in-tree STB linkage.

In
`@Modules/Graphics/RHI/Vulkan/Include/Methane/Graphics/Vulkan/CommandListSet.h`:
- Line 74: Add a mutable mutex alongside
m_vk_unique_execution_completed_semaphore, and use it to synchronize both lazy
creation and access to the semaphore handle. Lock the critical sections in
GetNativeExecutionCompletedSemaphore() and GetSubmitInfo(), preserving their
existing behavior while preventing concurrent mutation and reads.

In
`@Modules/Graphics/RHI/Vulkan/Sources/Methane/Graphics/Vulkan/CommandQueue.cpp`:
- Around line 253-263: Update the completion/reset path around CommandQueue’s
frame execution wait handling, including ResetWaitForFrameExecution, so it only
resets frame wait state when command_list_set.GetFrameIndex() contains a value;
do not use value_or(0U), preventing frame-less render sets from clearing frame
zero’s semaphore state.

In
`@Modules/Graphics/RHI/Vulkan/Sources/Methane/Graphics/Vulkan/RenderContext.cpp`:
- Line 133: Remove the VULKAN_HPP_DEFAULT_DISPATCHER initialization from the
RenderContext setup, specifically the call using
GetVulkanDevice().GetNativeDevice(). Preserve the instance-level dispatcher
initialization in Device.cpp; do not add another global device-level
initialization, and only use a per-device dispatcher if required by the existing
design.

In `@Modules/Graphics/RHI/Vulkan/Sources/Methane/Graphics/Vulkan/Shader.cpp`:
- Around line 65-111: Update RemoveHlslReflectionFromSpirv to perform
unconditional validation instead of relying on META_CHECK macros: reject input
shorter than g_spirv_header_words_count before copying the header, reject zero
op_words_count, and reject instruction counts exceeding the remaining SPIR-V
words before operand inspection or range insertion. Use the project’s always-on
error-handling mechanism and preserve normal stripping behavior for valid input.

1. Interface returns by value — ICommandQueue.h:64 now declares Ptr<ITimestampQueryPool> GetTimestampQueryPoolPtr() instead of const Ptr<…>&, so callers hold a strong reference for as long as they use the pool. Propagated through Base::CommandQueueTracking, Null::CommandQueue, and the Rhi::CommandQueue PIMPL wrapper. DirectX, Vulkan and Metal all inherit from CommandQueueTracking, so no per-backend overrides existed.

2. Dedicated mutex — m_timestamp_query_pool_mutex guards the member. GetTimestampQueryPoolPtr() holds it across the lazy InitializeTimestampQueryPool(); CompleteExecutionSafely() takes it around the reset(). I verified re-entrancy first: ITimestampQueryPool::Create resolves to the backend constructor and InitializeTracyGpuContext just builds a unique_ptr — neither calls back into the accessor, so holding the lock across init is safe.

3. New private GetInitializedTimestampQueryPoolPtr() — copies the shared_ptr under the lock without triggering lazy initialization. WaitForExecution() uses it so calibration still only runs on an already-created pool, preserving existing behaviour.

4. Call site fixed — this one mattered. CommandList.cpp:302 was GetTimestampQueryPoolPtr().get(). With the by-value return, .get() on the returned temporary would leave a dangling raw pointer — the change would have introduced a worse bug than it fixed. It now holds the Ptr in a local across both CreateTimestampQuery calls.

Lock ordering is acyclic: m_execution_waiting_mutex → m_timestamp_query_pool_mutex in the two places that need both; GetTimestampQueryPoolPtr() takes only the timestamp mutex. I deliberately did not use the m_executing_command_lists_mutex the rule suggested, since it's held across GPU waits in PopNextExecutingCommandListSet().

44-50: 🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Wake the refresh thread on state changes and shutdown.

When m_screen_refresh_enabled is false, the local update_condition_var cannot be notified by ToggleScreenRefresh(), so wait_for can delay Play/Pause by up to one second. request_stop() also cannot wake the wait, which can delay std::jthread destruction. Store the condition variable in shared state, notify it from ToggleScreenRefresh(), and use a stop-aware wait.

Retain timed-out command-list sets

Added test script to check applications Build/Unix/CI/RunApplicationsTest.sh

| # | Finding | Fix |
|---|---|---|
| 22 | `GetCombinedName()` returns a reference after unlocking | Returns `std::string` by value — this reviewed *my own* previous fix and was right |
| 20 | Global Vulkan dispatcher init with a device | Removed; it directly reversed the multi-GPU protection documented in `Device.cpp:299-307` |
| 19 | Frame-less set resets frame 0's wait state | Only resets when `GetFrameIndex()` has a value |
| 2 | `eTimeout` unhandled by `acquireNextImageKHR` | Bounded retry loop; also re-acquires after `eErrorSurfaceLostKHR`, which previously proceeded with a never-assigned image index |
| 18 | Lazy `vk::UniqueSemaphore` raced | Dedicated mutex + by-value handle; double-checked so the semaphore lock never nests with the command-lists lock |
| 21 | SPIR-V bounds checks compiled out | Always-on throws — `METHANE_CHECKS_ENABLED=OFF` left an OOB read on a short header and an infinite loop on zero word count |
| 3/13 | CMake arch detection | Compare by name (not `${}`) + `MATCHES` for `ARM64`/`arm64`/`AARCH64`/`aarch64` |

How script works Build/Unix/CI/RunApplicationsTest.sh:
Discovery — finds Methane* executables under BUILD_DIR/Apps (falls back to the whole BUILD_DIR), excluding *Test unit-test binaries. On macOS it discovers Methane*.app bundles and launches Contents/MacOS/<exe> directly so console output is captured. For multi-config generators it picks the --config sub-directory, or the most recently built binary.
Run — each app is started sequentially with stdout+stderr redirected to <output-dir>/<AppName>.log, polled 4×/sec for the timeout (10s default), then SIGTERM'd with a grace period before SIGKILL.
Crash/exit check — exiting before the timeout fails the app: non-zero code, a fatal signal (SIGSEGV/SIGABRT/… decoded by name), or even a clean exit-0 (a graphics app closing itself means it errored out — relax with --allow-early-exit).
Output check — the log is scanned for Vulkan debug-messenger Error … blocks, Validation Error, D3D12/DXGI ERROR/CORRUPTION, Metal API validation, assertion failures, sanitizer reports, unhandled exceptions and dynamic-loader failures; known-harmless loader/Mesa noise is filtered. Warnings are reported separately and only fail with --fail-on-warnings. Matches print with line numbers and trailing context.
Methane prints validation output via PrintToDebugOutput, which is stdout on Linux and NSLog/stderr on macOS, so it lands in the log. Windows uses OutputDebugString, invisible without a debugger — so the script sets VK_KHRONOS_VALIDATION_* env vars to route layer messages to stdout and warns that DX12 debug-layer messages can't be verified there. On Linux without DISPLAY it starts an Xvfb virtual display automatically.

Exit codes: 0 pass, 1 failures, 2 usage/environment error, 3 no apps found — suitable for CI.

Root cause
A lifetime mismatch between two threads over who owns the pending present-wait:

AddWaitForFrameExecution() registers the set's "execution completed" binary semaphore in m_wait_frame_execution_completed[frame_index]. Its only consumer is vkQueuePresentKHR in RenderContext::Present(), on the main thread.
CompleteCommandListSetExecution() called ResetWaitForFrameExecution() — but it runs on the background m_execution_waiting_thread (CommandQueueTracking.cpp:163), firing as soon as the execution fence signals.
The fence signalling means the GPU finished the work — it says nothing about the semaphore having been waited on. So whenever the GPU finished before the main thread reached Present(), the semaphore was dropped from the present wait list, presentKHR waited on nothing, and the binary semaphore stayed signalled. The next submit of that same set signalled it again → the VUID.

I confirmed this by instrumenting rather than inferring: the background thread was clearing a non-empty, still-pending wait 22–69 times per 8-second run, and one instrumented run caught Present with an empty wait list — which also aborted with can not reset command list in committed or executing state.

Fix
Removed the reset from CompleteCommandListSetExecution() — the wait now belongs solely to Present(), which clears it after consuming it. This is the actual fix.
AddWaitForFrameExecution grows the vector instead of resize-ing it. The unconditional resize(index + 1) shrank the vector whenever a lower frame index executed, discarding higher frames' entries. That was harmless only because the buggy reset kept them empty; with the reset gone, entries legitimately stay pending, so this would have become a live bug.
Skip registering the same semaphore twice for one frame — a binary semaphore may be awaited only once per signal, and a duplicate could otherwise accumulate if a presentation was skipped by a swapchain error.
1. PSO depth-stencil format (ID 1170) — RenderState.cpp:280

DSVFormat was set to DXGI_FORMAT_UNKNOWN whenever settings.depth.enabled was false. But D3D12 requires the PSO's DSVFormat to match the DSV bound by the render pass regardless of whether depth testing is on. It now always takes the render pattern's depth attachment format (PixelFormat::Unknown → DXGI_FORMAT_UNKNOWN, so patterns without depth are unaffected).

This is why only ShadowCube and CubeMapArray were affected: they use AppOptions::GetDefaultWithColorDepthAndAnim() (screen pattern with depth), and ScreenQuad/text render states set depth.enabled = false — so every badge and text draw, every frame, hit it.

2. Copy-queue resource state (ID 1334) — Resource.hpp:169, Texture.cpp:517

Resources used by D3D12_COMMAND_LIST_TYPE_COPY lists must stay in Common; the copy queue implicitly promotes them to CopyDest/CopySource and decays them back. PrepareResourceTransfer was transitioning to CopyDest on the copy list itself. It now targets Common for copy-type lists (keeping the existing DIRECT-list behavior for --transfer-with-direct-queue), and image textures are created in Common instead of CopyDest — which also removes the early-return path that previously skipped the sync barrier entirely on first upload.

A side benefit: Methane's tracked state now matches D3D12's actual post-decay state instead of claiming CopyDest.

3. Forced sample count (ID 672) — RenderState.cpp:210

Fix 1 surfaced this latent bug: ForcedSampleCount was set to rasterizer.sample_count whenever depth and stencil were disabled. That's a target-independent-rasterization feature for UAV rendering which forbids binding a DSV — previously masked because those PSOs also had DSVFormat = UNKNOWN. With a DSV now correctly declared, PSO creation failed outright and three apps aborted with exit code 3. It's left at the D3D12_DEFAULT value of 0, so rasterization uses the render targets' sample count.
Thread safety — cpp:S8379 (9)

- Vulkan/CommandQueue (6 issues): GetWaitForExecutionCompleted() and its mutable m_wait_execution_completed member had zero call sites — dead code, also present on master. Deleted both.
- Vulkan/Device.h — QueueFamilyReservation::m_free_indices was mutated from const methods (ClaimQueueIndex/ReleaseQueueIndex, called from command-queue ctor/dtor) with no guard. Added m_free_indices_mutex and locked all accessors. This required dropping noexcept from HasFreeQueues() and IncrementQueuesCount(), since locking can throw; no caller relied on it.
- Vulkan/RenderContext.h — m_vk_deferred_release_pipelines was appended from DeferredRelease() (const) and cleared in WaitForGpu(). Added a mutex covering both.
- Vulkan/ResourceBarriers.cpp — the lazy per-queue-family barrier cache relied on the caller holding Base::ResourceBarriers::Lock(). Made the lock local; the mutex is recursive, so the existing caller lock still nests safely.

Correctness/clarity (9)

- cpp:S7172 ×4 — .has_value() on optional<uint32_t> checks in Vulkan/CommandQueue.cpp, Vulkan/Device.cpp, Vulkan/RenderContext.cpp, Linux/AppLin.cpp.
- cpp:S8417 ×2 — dropped memory_order_relaxed from the console-print flag in Platform/Utils.cpp (set once at init, not hot).
- cpp:S1905 — removed a genuinely redundant static_cast<vk::ObjectType>; pObjects[i].objectType is already vk::ObjectType on the C++ callback struct.
- cpp:S3358 — replaced the nested ternary in RenderState.cpp with an IIFE lambda, keeping const.
- cpp:S6004 — moved device into the if init-statement in Shader.cpp.
…R MTL_SHADER_VALIDATION and support in RunApplicationsTest.sh script

Metal has no equivalent of ID3D12InfoQueue1::RegisterMessageCallback or VK_EXT_debug_utils. I verified this empirically with four probe programs rather than assuming:

API validation layer messages cannot be intercepted at all — Metal prints them itself via NSLog or an assertion failure. They already reach the CI log through stderr, but in a format no existing pattern matched.
MTLLogState (macOS 15+) captures GPU shader logs only — the handler never fired for API validation.
MTLFunctionLog via commandBuffer.logs is Metal's real programmatic validation channel (its only enum value is literally MTLFunctionLogTypeValidation), available since macOS 11.
Critically: a GPU shader-validation error surfaces only in commandBuffer.logs — commandBuffer.error stays nil and status reads Completed. Checking only .error would have missed it entirely.
Implementation
New DebugMessages.hh/.mm prints three message kinds with the Error <Category>: prefix the script's ^Error [A-Za-z] pattern already matches: shader validation (MTLFunctionLog), command buffer execution errors (with per-encoder state and debug signposts), and shader logs (MTLLogState). It's wired into command buffer creation and completion in CommandList.hpp, RenderContext.mm and Fence.mm.

Gating is by MTL_DEBUG_LAYER/MTL_SHADER_VALIDATION env vars, not a compile-time flag — CI builds Release presets, so a #ifdef _DEBUG gate like DirectX's would have been dead there. Command-buffer error reporting stays unconditional since GPU faults happen in release too.

RunApplicationsTest.sh now also sets MTL_SHADER_VALIDATION=1, adds patterns for the two raw Metal forms Methane can't intercept (failed assertion, Invalid device load/store), and widens the startup-banner ignore to cover the Metal GPU Validation Enabled line that shader validation adds.

Verification
Temporary instrumentation confirmed messages travel from both render and present command buffers through PrintToDebugOutput into the captured log — the script flagged 3746 of them and failed the app, then I removed it.
A probe using the identical field access produced a real shader-validation report: Invalid device store at offset 4096, executing kernel function: "OutOfBoundsKernel" with encoder label and /program_source:10:36 source location.
A fake app exercised the script's matcher against all four message forms — all detected, both banners correctly ignored.
All 9 tutorials pass with both validation layers on (no false positives); builds clean on macOS Debug/Release, tvOS simulator (checking the macOS-only MTLCommandBufferErrorDeviceRemoved guard), and with METHANE_METAL_FRAMES_SYNC_WITH_DISPATCH_SEMAPHORE both off and on, since I restructured that branch.
One caveat worth flagging: Metal API validation errors still abort the process by default rather than logging. The script catches that as a SIGABRT crash plus the failed assertion text. Setting MTL_DEBUG_LAYER_ERROR_MODE=nslog would collect all such issues in one run instead of dying on the first — I left the Apple default in place rather than change failure semantics unasked, but it's a one-line addition if you want it.
- Stale native device on switch:              RenderContext.cpp:148
- Descriptor pools reused across devices:     DescriptorManager.cpp:43
- Frozen presentation after switch:           RenderContext.cpp:154 + PrimeSurfacePresentation()
- Swapchain destroyed before its image views: RenderContext.cpp:96
- Leaked probe surface (release → reset):     System.cpp:318, RenderContext.cpp:317
- Pin DirectXShaderCompilerBinary to an immutable commit SHA instead of the
  mutable 'update_dxc_v1-9-2602' branch, matching the CMakeModules.cmake convention.
- Exclude Methane/StbImage.h from the installed public headers of MethanePrimitives,
  because it includes <stb_image.h> from the STB external dependency,
  which is not installed or exported with Methane Kit.
- Hyphenate compound modifiers in the Tracy description in Externals/README.md.

…Index:

- Release swapchain resources before destroying the lost surface, because all swapchains
  created for a surface must be destroyed prior to the surface itself
  (VUID-vkDestroySurfaceKHR-surface-01266).
- Re-initialize the swapchain directly instead of calling ResetNativeSwapchain(),
  which calls UpdateFrameBufferIndex() and thus re-entered GetNextFrameBufferIndex recursively.
- Take the frame-sync ring slot anew on every acquire attempt, because the frame-sync pool
  is destroyed and re-created together with the swapchain, which invalidated the reference
  cached before the retry loop and left it dangling after a surface-lost retry.

CMake does not expand '~' in -D option values and CLion does not expand it in the
CMake options field either, so the Linux and MacOS-VK profiles would have created a
literal '~' directory for CPM_SOURCE_CACHE and CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX.
