- Introduced the two-times upscale specification detailing requirements for unified output, fixed model presets, arbitrary dimensions, and consistent job behavior. - Added scenarios for existing models, repeated upscale, and handling of alpha preservation. - Created the unified depth plane specification outlining geometry modes, stable interface, and asset evaluation. - Defined scenarios for mode switching, relief and camera preservation, and validation of delivered assets.

## Why
|
|
|
|
Tangent-space normal maps describe the full-depth surface. When a geometry node reduces its `Depth Scale`, its shape becomes flatter but the material normal remains at full strength, making surface detail appear too strong.
|
|
|
|
## What Changes
|
|
|
|
- Reuse the existing `o_normal_reduction` geometry attribute as the material-to-geometry contract for tangent-space normal strength.
|
|
- Make tangent-normal depth geometry write `1 - Depth Scale` to that attribute, so the material normal strength follows the displayed geometric depth.
|
|
- Extend the existing `O Image Layer` behavior without changing its attribute lookup or fallback semantics.
|
|
- Make Object Space normal strength follow the same geometry reduction contract.
|
|
- Reuse the existing `o_normal_reduction` contract for additional Tangent-normal depth geometry.

|
## Capabilities
|
|
|
|
### New Capabilities
|
|
- `depth-scaled-tangent-normals`: Keep tangent-space material normal strength consistent with geometry depth scaling.
|
|
|
|
### Modified Capabilities
|
|
|
|
None.
|
|
|
|
## Impact
|
|
|
|
- Tangent-normal geometry-group builders, especially Relief Plane.
|
|
- Normal-scale node tests; saved node assets must be rebuilt with `uv run node-group build`.
|
|
- No server inference format, user-facing modifier socket, or dependency changes.
