warp: point-compatible masters and a two-master variable font spike - #24
Feasibility test for a variable wght axis in Warp, behind a flag. The default build and the committed fonts do not change.
warp/tools/compat.py compares the Regular and Bold outlines of the 890 glyphs of the 0.2 set and writes proofs/warp/compat.json (one row per glyph, with the reason when a glyph is incompatible).
warp/loom/compatible.py is a compatible outline path: both masters are sampled at fixed fractions between corners. 15 glyphs also needed a topology policy (separate overlapping strokes, a split loop stroke, or corrected components).
warp/tools/vf_spike.py builds the variable TTF from the two masters and compares its instances at 400 and 700 with the static outlines.
Proof
compat.py (default): glyphs 890, contours-compatible 851, point-compatible 28
compat.py --fixed: glyphs 890, contours-compatible 890, point-compatible 890
vf_spike.py: instance 400: max difference 0.020 units, instance 700: max difference 0.520 units
pytest -k "compat or deterministic or cpu": 16 passed (the hard-glyph test is unchanged)
fidelity maximum (compatible path): 3.048 % Regular, 2.327 % Bold (limit 5 %)
Fontspector 1.9.0, universal, spike font: PASS 95, WARN 775, FAIL 0, ERROR 0
875 already compatible glyphs: zero changed points
default path: 18 of 18 files byte-identical to fonts/warp
Notes
Verdict for the two-master test: verified. Not verified: five weights, italics, opsz. Fontspector reports 770 interpolation warnings on the spike font; they stay open before any production variable font. Visual proofs of the 15 glyphs show no overlap gaps or darker overlaps. No font file is committed.
Summary by CodeRabbit
New Features
Added an optional compatible-outline build mode for Regular and Bold. Default font builds remain unchanged.
Added tools to compare outlines and assess two-master variable-font compatibility and visual fidelity, with sampling and refitting options.
Documentation
Documented matching point structure across 890 glyphs in the Regular/Bold test. Endpoint checks pass, but interpolation warnings remain; lighter weights, italics, and other optical sizes are not covered.
Updated project status and roadmap, including the open full weight ladder and optical-size work.
… outline path
compat.py compares the Regular and Bold outlines of the 890 glyphs of the 0.2 set.
By default 28 are point-compatible. A path behind a flag that samples both masters
at fixed fractions between corners makes 875 compatible, with a fidelity maximum of
3.048 percent. 15 glyphs still differ in contour topology (ligatures with f, gamma,
kappa, two accented Greek letters, three mathematical italic letters). The default
build bytes do not change. Verdict: not verified; the hard-glyph test fails until the
topology is fixed.

…er variable font
Separate overlapping strokes (germandbls, f ligatures, kappa, tonos marks and two
mathematical italic letters), a split loop stroke (gamma and a mathematical italic
gamma) and corrected marks on two accented Greek letters bring the Regular and Bold
masters to 890 of 890 point-compatible glyphs on the compatible path. The spike
variable font at wght 400 and 700 differs from the static outlines by at most 0.02
and 0.52 font units. The 875 glyphs that were already compatible have zero changed
points. The default build bytes do not change.
Co-authored-by: Ricardo Frantz <4220623+ricardofrantz@users.noreply.github.com>
The change adds compatible Regular and Bold outlines, build options, comparison reports, and a two-master variable-font experiment. The test reports point compatibility for 890 glyphs at opsz 10 and retains overlaps in 15 topology-changing glyphs. Default static font outlines and build behavior remain unchanged.
Changes: Regular/Bold outline compatibility

Summary
Contour pairing warp/loom/compatible.py
Pairs Regular and Bold contours using canonicalized ordering and either sample or refit fitting. Selected glyphs use contours derived from separated stroke groups.
Build integration and compatibility tests warp/loom/build.py, warp/tests/test_compat.py
Adds compatibility options to builds and the CLI, restricted to Regular and Bold. Tests check contour structures, reproducibility, CPU-independent output, and error handling.
Outline comparison and topology reporting warp/tools/compat.py
Adds a CLI that reports contour and point compatibility, mismatch details, and detected topology transitions across weights.
Variable-font experiment and results warp/tools/vf_spike.py, warp/BRIEF.md, warp/CHANGELOG.md, warp/STATUS.md, README.md
Adds a two-master build and validation workflow. Project records describe its reported results, test scope, and limitations.
machine-made/type#23: Changes CPU-dependent outline calculations and rebuilds static fonts; this PR tests CPU-independent output on the compatible path.
machine-made/type#21: Changes curve-fitting calculations used by the compatible path and tests output across CPU feature settings.

Security architecture risk: Low · up to 45675
The compatible-outline mode is explicitly opt-in, and normal release builds regenerate default sources before compilation. Failed experimental runs can leave stale or partial outputs, but no introduced security-boundary expansion was identified.
Retained concerns
No architecture-level concerns identified.
Security review details
Security Blast Radius
inferred — The demonstrated propagation is within local font generation, intermediate UFOs, and validation reports. The inspected callers do not establish a new remote entrypoint, identity transition, or privileged service boundary. Consumers outside the repository remain unassessed.
Trust Boundaries and Controls
observed — The normal release path rebuilds default inputs, and existing CI and release checks compare generated static fonts against committed outputs. These controls counter silent propagation of experimental outlines through the standard release sequence; they do not make arbitrary intermediate-directory consumption safe.

Full details: Proof
Explanation
The PR body has no Verification section. Its Proof section gives results but does not say how the 18-file comparison or Fontspector ran. warp/STATUS.md:112 claims three font tables stayed byte-identical after adding names, but no comparison script, test, or report supports that claim. The added byte test covers only Regular TTF; the existing workflow compares the default build, but the body does not say it produced the reported result. The prior failure remains unresolved.
Resolution
Add a Verification section with the commands, results, and method for each check. State how the 18-file comparison and Fontspector ran. Add or link evidence for the font-table parity claim, or remove it.

State the tolerance and its reason.
pytest.approx(0.6 * 2**0.5) uses the default relative tolerance of 1e-6 with no stated reason. Pass abs= and add a short comment.
For example, use abs=1e-9. The reason is that the value is a hypot of two float64 offsets, so only rounding error is expected.
As per path instructions: "Tests assert numerical results with explicit tolerances, and each tolerance states its reason."

Review comment at @warp/loom/build.py at line 220:
Add type annotations for compatible and method in both drawn and build_font: use
bool for compatible and Literal["sample", "refit"] for method, retaining their
existing defaults. Ensure Literal is available so unsupported method names are
caught by type checking.
None of the new functions in this file has parameter or return annotations. fit_pair and pair take method as a bare string. The same gap exists in warp/tools/compat.py and warp/tools/vf_spike.py.
Add hints such as Literal["sample", "refit"] for method. Arc, canonical and polygon need NDArray[np.float64] and tuple hints. Basedpyright strict mode then catches a wrong method value statically. Today only the fit_pair branch raises, and pair returns the originals before it reaches that branch.
As per path instructions: "Python 3.14, strictly typed (basedpyright)... Flag: ... missing or wrong type hints".

- Line 547: Update the drawn call in build_font to preserve the default
cache-key shape: when compatible mode is off, call drawn with only style_key and
gl.name; pass compatible and method only when compatible mode is on. Apply the
same default-call behavior in compat.contours if it has the corresponding
unconditional arguments.

- Around line 16-17: Change the verdict in the STATUS.md test summary from
“verified” to “inconclusive” or “endpoints pass,” matching vf_spike.py and
making clear that endpoint checks do not establish correct interpolation.
Preserve the existing scope and explicitly unverified items.
- Around line 116-120: Update the status notes for the proof-sheet results and
process history: remove the unsupported visual-inspection and maximum-alpha
claims unless their script or report is included, and remove the unsupported
independent-review claim and stale PR/agent-activity note. Keep only status

Do not draw each glyph twice in the default build (the cache key differed), keep a
subset run of compat.py from replacing the committed full report, say that the
verdict holds at the two endpoints, mark the Fontspector run and the visual check
as local results, and keep the README on the same roadmap as STATUS.
