albucore

Running Albucore micro-benchmarks under benchmarks/, synthetic router timings, and comparing PyPI releases with uv --no-project. Use when adding benchmarks, comparing performance across versions, or documenting benchmark workflow.

Albucore image processing conventions - shapes (H,W,C), dtypes (uint8/float32), benchmark-driven backend routing (OpenCV, NumPy, LUT, NumKong), tests, and lockfile discipline. Use when implementing or modifying albucore modules, writing tests, or reviewing image-processing code.

Albucore star-exported API (__all__), routers vs albucore.functions shims, and dependents such as Albumentations. Use when changing exports, documenting API, or deciding what belongs in package __all__.
