New workspace crate clawhdf5-tools with one binary, h5rs, built only on the
clawhdf5 facade and clawhdf5-format (no libhdf5, no C):
- ls [-r] [-v] FILE[/path]: h5ls's listing (same text in its first two
columns) plus the datatype; -v adds address, link count, layout and chunk
index, chunk size, storage, filters, datatype and attributes.
- dump [--json] [-A] [-p] [-d PATH] FILE: h5dump DDL (byte-identical to
h5dump 1.14.6 on the test files) or hdf5-json.
- stat FILE: h5stat's object/link/rank/layout/filter/attribute counts, raw
data and total size.
- diff [-r] [-q] [-d D] [-p R] A B [OBJ1 [OBJ2]]: structural and value
differences, exit 0/1/2 like h5diff.
- check [--data] FILE: walks every object, parses every message, verifies
the checksums of every v2+ structure (including the fractal heap blocks
the library never checks), checks chunk indexes against their datasets
and raw data for out-of-file or overlapping extents; every problem with
its address.
Values over --max-bytes are reported, not read; dense-storage heaps are
verified before objects are read from them; panics are caught (exit 3).
Tests compare with h5ls, h5stat, h5dump and h5diff and with h5py's values,
and flip the checksum of every checksummed structure in a v1.14-format file.

open(bytes) -> H5File with kind/list/info/attrs/attrErrors/read/
readHyperslab. Numeric data comes back in the typed array of the
stored width (Int16Array for i16, BigInt64Array for i64, Float32Array
for f32/f16, ...), strings and enum names as string arrays, array
datatypes flattened with their dims appended to the shape. Compound,
reference, opaque and VL-sequence datasets are refused with an error
naming the type; nothing is returned as reinterpreted bytes.
The logic is in a plain-Rust core module, tested natively: unit tests,
and h5py_interop, which compares every dataset, hyperslab, listing and
attribute of an h5py- and a netCDF4-written file with what libhdf5
reads back (generator shared with the Node test of the built package).
No mmap, no threads; lz4 is on, zstd/szip (C) are not. A
wasm-release profile (opt-level s, LTO) serves the browser build.
ci-test.sh lints the crate for wasm32 and checks it builds no C.

rust-version = "1.92" in [workspace.package], inherited by every crate.
1.92 is the floor: wgpu (clawhdf5-gpu) requires it, and the whole
workspace, Python bindings included, checks cleanly on it. ci-test.sh
reads the version from Cargo.toml and checks the workspace on exactly
that toolchain, so the manifests and the README badge cannot drift from
what actually builds. The badge said 1.75, below edition 2024's own
floor.

Bump all workspace crates, the node package and pyproject to 2.2.0 and
finalize the changelog. The repository URL in every manifest pointed at a
GitHub location that does not resolve; use the real origin.

Add [workspace.dependencies] to the root Cargo.toml for the four
duplicated-across-many-crates dependencies flagged by the earlier review:
tempfile (7 crates), criterion (6), half (4 — real version skew, clawhdf5-gpu
pinned 2.7 while others used bare 2), and serde (4). Update every consuming
crate to `dep = { workspace = true }`, preserving crate-local `optional =
true` where it already existed. half now resolves uniformly to 2.7.x
workspace-wide instead of two separate semver ranges.
Also fixed clawhdf5-filters/Cargo.toml's stale "rustyhdf5" description
while touching the file (same class of leftover rename as prior fixes).
Not touching rayon/byteorder/clap (no skew found, lower priority).
- Remove clawhdf5-types (empty 1-line stub crate; type defs already live in
clawhdf5-format). Update workspace Cargo.toml and CLAUDE.md accordingly.
- Implement HDF5 superblock v4 (page-buffer mode) read and write support in
clawhdf5-format: Superblock::parse_v4, page_size field, v4 serialize
branch, and FileWriter::with_page_size. This was the one task left
unimplemented from docs/superpowers/plans/2026-06-29-format-write-extensions.md.
- Reconcile the three docs/superpowers/plans/*.md docs (filter codecs,
format write extensions, MPI-IO VOL) against actual shipped code: they
were pre-work plans for d6c4d4f (2026-06-30) committed to git late on
2026-08-03 with all checkboxes still unchecked. Mark completed tasks done
and add a status note so they read as historical records, not open work.
- Refresh ROADMAP.md's "What's Next" section against current repo state.
