Objective

Implement base Asset and concrete asset types plus AssetCache, deduplicated requests, uploads/downloads, texture/mesh fetching, and cache pruning.

Deliverables

Preserve asset IDs/types, mutable/raw bytes, lazy decode, transfer/source types, priorities, progress, deduplication, cancellation, and cache naming/expiry.
Apply size limits and atomic cache writes.
Integrate imaging/StructuredData without exposing codec internals.

Validation

Asset/material/mesh/download/cache tests pass.
Duplicate requests share work and independent cancellation behaves correctly.
Malformed assets and cache corruption return typed errors.

Prerequisite

Networking/client lifecycle and all foundational implementation milestones are complete; mapped APIs and translated tests are fixed.

Project constraints

New native Rust behavior only; no bridge or C# fallback.
Preserve mapped public APIs and exact translated assertions; use completed transport/data layers rather than duplicating them.
Bound resources, avoid locks across await/callbacks, and update docs/coverage with focused and workspace evidence.

Implement native asset pipeline and cache (#64)

Implemented and pushed in commit 52f62d8.

The native Rust asset slice now includes bounded concrete asset models and real JPEG 2000/Ogg Vorbis codec boundaries; GLTF material/override handling; client-owned capability and LLUDP asset, mesh, texture, Xfer, and upload pipelines; authenticated inventory material uploads; independent cancellation for deduplicated HTTP waiters; transfer/progress event models; and a confined, atomic, corruption-aware, activity-pruned disk cache with custom naming support. Documentation and an issue-specific coverage audit were added.

Verification: cargo check --workspace; isolated tests/api-compile cargo check; strict libremetaverse library Clippy with all features; 5 native asset_pipeline_semantics tests; 13 related material-document compatibility cases; 11 related asset-capability compatibility cases; all 11 caps_http/download regressions; generator, mapping, API coverage, formatting, diff, and issue #64 audit gates. The 12 GLTF document cases and terrain/postcard/thumbnail cases belong to other milestone issues and were intentionally excluded.
