adminandClaude Opus 5.5 0d8fd6ff52 Let the agent use the graph, scene and project commands (#429)
feuerwerk / gate (push) Successful in 5m10s
feuerwerk / suite (push) Failing after 18m49s
The agent knew 23 of the editor's commands. It could not point a
Variables node at a variable, group nodes, edit ports, transitions,
containers, colliders or the project settings. Stage 5a brings the
catalog to 85 commands in five areas and keeps every answer short.

- The catalog lists names and descriptions only. With a query (an
  area or command names) it adds the arguments. All schemas at once
  would pass the 60 000 character limit of one answer.
- add_port points a Variables node at a variable. The port takes the
  variable's kind, and an unknown name is refused with the list of
  the ones that exist.
- add_group and add_comment take nodes instead of coordinates. They
  follow the nodes after the arrange step, in the same undo step.
- The rule for which list a port picks from moved into portChoices.ts.
  Inspector and agent now share it.
- The frame of a group around nodes moved into annotationDrag.ts, so
  the button and the agent get the same frame.
- list_assets returns the project settings. get_asset shows the
  content of placed containers with the ids overrides need. get_graph
  shows declared ports and frame colors.
- A new node is placed at the height of its port, in the free spot
  whose links cross the fewest others. A source goes left of the node
  it feeds. Before, new nodes always went right of the rest.
- Arrange breaks a tie in crossings by putting the flow on top, and
  exec links pull harder when a column is sorted.
- A comment over a group keeps clear of the group's title bar.
- The agent's instructions and lint_graph ask to look at crossings
  too and to call arrange_graph when there are more than needed.

Left out on purpose: file assets (no upload), paste from the
clipboard, internal wrapper commands and switching plugins on.

Found on the way:
- Variable commands on a Struct asset did not run through
  WithStructTypes. New fields did not reach variables of that type.
- A query "variables" also matched set_variables_scope. A word that
  names an area now means only that area.

Tests:
- agent-catalog (new, 10), agent-edit, graph-arrange (3 new) and
  relay green. 11 bends of the code, all red.
- e2e 71 on atx: 22/22, the new check sees port speed and a group
  around all 4 drawn nodes.
- Live on a test project: a speed variable of 300 moved the player
  to x 150.03 in 0.5 s. A re-placed Variables node landed below Axis
  input with 4 crossings instead of 7.

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 0e73fd85b9 Route sounds, songs and buses in one Master routing graph (#351)
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 4m20s
game-maker / suite (push) Failing after 15m17s
A project bus could only go into one other bus, and a sound, an
instrument, a pattern or a song into exactly one bus. A shared reverb
needs a sound to go there in part and on dry at the same time. Instead
of a list of sends on every asset, the project gets one routing graph
like the routing of a song (#350), one level up.

- Menu -> Master routing opens a tab with one graph per project. It has
  a node per sound, instrument, pattern, song and bus, named after its
  asset, and one Master. Embedded assets have none, their song routes
  them.
- The nodes follow the assets. Every edit settles the routing in the
  same undo step (KeepRoutingCommand), so an undone delete brings the
  links of its asset back. A new asset gets a node and a link to the
  master. What went only into a deleted bus goes to the master.
- New nodes start in three columns: what plays, the buses, and the
  master a row above, so no link into it runs behind a bus.
- Links are sends: -60 to +12 dB, and a Mode on links out of a bus or a
  song. Out of a sound, an instrument or a pattern a link always takes
  the sound after its volume and FX. Loops are refused.
- A node without a link is silent and says "Goes nowhere".
- The rows Bus and Into are gone. Play nodes with a picked bus still
  overrule the routing.
- A click on a node shows its asset in the inspector, the Master shows
  the master volume and sound FX. A double click opens the asset's tab.
- The graph lives in project.routing and is held to the assets when a
  project is read, but nothing is added there. The editor adds the
  nodes when it opens a project. An asset without a node plays on the
  master, so old projects sound as before without a migration.
- In the mix an asset with one link at 0 dB goes straight into that bus.
  A sound or instrument with more gets a bus of its own with the sends.
  A pattern or song sends from the master of its playing, which is
  where its Mode taps. Buses of the mix can have sends now too.

Found:

- The check "the scheduler plans a looped bar" in e2e 34 wobbles. It
  failed in 2 of 5 runs here and in CI task 580 at 490fcba, before
  this change. HEAD passed it 2 of 2. Not fixed here.

Tests:

- Unit master-routing (new, 10), sound-library (2 new), buses
  rewritten onto the routing, 5 lists without the Bus row. 5 counter
  checks red.
- e2e 34 (melektaus-atx): ALL PASSED, 93 checks (3 new, 2 rewritten).
  Counter check with the Sound tab ignoring the routing: the routing
  check red.

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 f46b2316f2 Make 8-bit sounds without a file with a Chip node in instruments (#329)
game-maker / suite (push) Failing after 36s
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 3m33s
An instrument could only play sound files so far. The Chip makes the
sound of a note itself, the way old game consoles and sfxr did: a raw
wave and what its frequency does over the note. A laser, a jump or a
pickup is now an instrument and ends by itself.

- Chip node with wave (square, triangle, saw, sine, noise and the
  periodic noise of the NES), follow note, frequency, duty, duty
  sweep, slide, delta slide, min frequency, vibrato, arpeggio and
  repeat. It counts in Hz, semitones and seconds, not sfxr's 0 to 1.
- It runs as a third processor in the FX worklet. The math is a plain
  class, ChipPlayer, tested in Node. Every sample is worked out 8
  times and averaged, as sfxr does.
- Frequency and duty are AudioParams, so an Envelope can move them
  and a parameter can tune them while the note plays. A Pitch behind
  a Chip moves its frequency directly, without the phase vocoder.
- Below its min frequency a Chip ends and tells the page. Without the
  worklet it is silent and its note ends at once.
- An Envelope with sustain 0 now ends its note once the decay is over,
  for every source under it, Samples too. Before, a note with
  duration 0 ran on silently until a Stop sound.
- A note made of Chips alone needs no file. playNote and the wait for
  the bytes no longer drop it for having none.
- Inputs that do nothing as things stand are grey in the inspector.
  idleParams is told which inputs are connected, so a connected one
  always counts.

The credit names sfxr (Tomas Pettersson, MIT) and jsfxr, which turned
out to be public domain, not MIT as the plan in #329 said.

Tests:
- Unit chip (new) 12, sound-library +4. All of tests/core,
  tests/viewport, tests/editor/graph and tests/editor/inspector:
  178 files, 2953 green.
- Counter-checks: semitones read as /24 turn 4 chip tests red. Without
  the sustain rule and the file check 4 library tests fail.
- e2e 34 (melektaus-atx): ALL PASSED, 60 checks (2 new). Offline in
  Chrome a square at 220 Hz plus 12 semitones and duty 0.25 gave 329
  periods in 0.75 s, up 0.249. 64 noise voices for 2 s rendered in
  2.0 s, about 63 at once. Live a 0.2 s note with sustain 0 was gone
  after 0.26 s.
- Gate (melektaus-atx): CHECK EXIT 0, 255 files, 3962 tests.

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 297fca3e94 Show Direction and Curve of a node only where they matter
An animation key shows Direction only for one of the ten curves and
the Curve row only for Curve. Lerp and Set sound FX parameters hid
them on the node body, but the inspector still offered both rows for
every easing, so a linear Lerp had a Direction to pick that did
nothing.

- A node definition can name `idleParams`: settings that do nothing
  at the current values. The node body and the inspector both leave
  them out.
- `hiddenParams` stays as it was. It only trims the node body, the
  inspector keeps those rows (the Order of an event, the mode of
  Find), so it could not take this job.
- Lerp and Set sound FX parameters use `idleEasing` (formerly
  `hiddenEasing`) for it.
- The idle settings are part of the node signature of the inspector.
  Picking an easing that needs Direction or Curve rebuilds the
  section, and the row appears.

Tests:
- easing-curves: 14 tests (+1), node-catalog: 381, green
- e2e 06 (149 checks, green) checks that a new linear Lerp has no
  Direction and no Curve row in the inspector. Picking Cubic brings
  the Direction row, and Out is picked there as before.

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 183f356c99 Let a game hand values to the parameters of a sound FX #311
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 3m10s
game-maker / suite (push) Failing after 14m15s
A sound FX played the same every time: its numbers were settings of
the nodes. Now the Input declares parameters with a default, every
number of Gain, Pitch and EQ is an input they can feed, and a Play
sound hands in values for them.

- Input declares number parameters in the inspector, each with a
  Default (DeclaredPort.default, SetPortDefaultCommand). They are
  outputs of the Input. Input and Output count as terminals now, one
  of each per graph.
- Gain, Pitch and EQ take their numbers at inputs under the keys the
  settings had, so saved graphs sound as before without a migration.
  Each value is held to its range however it arrives.
- The compiler gives an FxPlan with the parameters still open.
  fxChainOf fills them in when a voice starts. The player still only
  sees an FxChain.
- New behavior node Sound FX parameters: names an FX and picks its
  parameters like a Variables node picks variables. Each picked one is
  a number input that starts at the FX's default. Its output has the
  new port type fxparams, which only fits Play sound's fx params.
- Play sound warns when the parameters name another FX than the one
  it plays. Names the FX does not know are left out.
- Renaming a parameter at the Input renames it in every Sound FX
  parameters node naming that FX, edges and values included.
- The Sound FX tab has a number field per parameter in its header.
  Play uses those values, they are never written into the asset.
- A value counts from the start of a voice. Changing a playing voice
  is #315, a Mix node is #316.

Tests:
- soundfx.test.ts 22 (+11): parameters in the plan, held values, a
  0-by-default stage, EQ band, save with defaults, wrong port types,
  default command with undo, Sound FX parameters into Play sound,
  defaults of picked ones, node problems, mismatch, rename with undo
- node-catalog 368 (+3): Play sound fx params, Sound FX parameters
- e2e 34: ALL PASSED - 28 checks (+2: header field plays depth 5,
  a Sound FX parameters node gives the game's voice depth 7)
- Gate on melektaus-atx: typecheck, lint, prettier clean, 240 test
  files, 3636 tests green
- Counter-check: with fxChainOf ignoring the values and the rename
  not followed, 5 of the new tests fail.
- Browser probe: header fields, inspector Default and the picked
  parameter looked at in two screenshots.

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 d80d5cce26 Let a Start input or a variable name the state machine it carries
A sub-behavior that gets its machine through a Start input had no
state ports on Is in state, Set state and the other state nodes.
Their ports came only from an inline pick or a State machine literal,
so a machine handed in from outside left them empty.

- A statemachine port of a Start node can now name a machine
  (DeclaredPort.machine). The inspector shows the pick next to the
  port name. SetPortMachineCommand sets it with undo.
- machineIdOf follows an edge from such a port to that machine, so
  the state nodes it feeds offer its states.
- A Run behavior node has the machine picked in advance on that input.
- A different pick there is allowed, but the node warns, because the
  called graph asks for the states of its own machine.
- A statemachine variable of a Variables node can name a machine
  the same way, picked next to the variable's row.
- The inspector signature of a node now includes the picked machine.
  Before, the pick changed the ports but the dropdown kept its text
  until the node was selected again.
- A local machine handed in still starts in no state every call.
  That rule from #229 is unchanged.

Tests:
- tests/core/start-machine.test.ts (7): ports with and without a
  machine and undo, save and load, the preset value moving a shared
  machine through the call, the warning, a port of another kind,
  the inspector signature, a Variables node.
- Counter checks: without the new branch in machineIdOf 2 tests
  fail, without the machine in the signature 1 test fails.
- Gate on melektaus-atx: 239 files, 3599 tests, CHECK EXIT 0.

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 0f6e628616 Check the declared type when a graph writes a typed variable (#271)
A list variable with an item type only kept its shape in the editor.
A graph could write any list into it at runtime, and the List node had
no type at all. Now the declaration decides what a write may store.

- Writing a list into a typed list variable leaves out every item that
  does not have exactly the fields of the type. The rest is written and
  the console names each item that was left out, like Add item does.
- The same rule holds for typed list fields inside a struct variable
  and for lists inside typed items, at any depth.
- A typed struct variable refuses a struct with a field the type does
  not have, and a value that is no struct. A struct with missing fields
  still merges in as before, so a partial Pack keeps working.
- The check runs in the Variables node (own variables and Variables
  assets) and in the Properties node when it sets a behavior variable
  of another object.
- Ports learn their declaration through GraphLookup: what a variable
  declares about its type, and which behavior owns a graph. The rule
  itself lives in the new src/core/graph/typedValues.ts, fitsType moved
  there from SetItem.
- The List node gets a Type setting. With a type its items are shaped
  and marked, follow the struct asset, count when the type is deleted
  and offer Split into fields in For each. The mark never reaches the
  running game.
- A type on a List node holding something other than structs is
  refused with a console line.
- Setting the List node back to None removes the marks, unlike a list
  variable. A node list has no per-item type row, so marked items could
  never be freed there. Undo brings everything back.
- tests/core/kinds.test.ts looked for the value as the first parameter
  of a literal. Type now comes first on the List node, so the test
  finds the value by its key.

Tests:
- Gate: 198 files, 2869 tests (2856 + 13), CHECK EXIT 0
- e2e 55: 19 checks (+55j write at runtime, +2 for 55k List node)
- e2e 54: 16 checks, smokes 24 / 19 / 21
- Five mutations, each fails between 1 and 4 tests
- e2e total 1606 is computed (1603 + 3), no full run

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 61bbb96a96 Define a struct once as an asset and reuse its shape (#253)
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 3m30s
game-maker / suite (push) Successful in 10m33s
A struct used to declare its fields wherever it stood. The same shape
in two variables meant typing it twice, and Pack/Expand copied it once
without staying in sync. A Struct asset now holds the shape in one
place, and every struct that picks it as its type follows it.

- New asset type "Struct" (not placeable, group Structs, own icon).
  The inspector shows its fields with name, kind and default value,
  and "Open" shows them in the variables tab.
- Struct variables and struct fields get a Type row: own fields, any
  Struct asset, or "Make struct type". With a type the fields come
  from the asset and cannot be added, renamed or removed there. The
  values stay per variable, overrides on placed objects still work.
- Pack and Expand get the setting Type. With a type their ports are
  the fields of the asset and read-only in the inspector.
- A change to the asset reaches every typed place in one undo step
  (syncStructTypes). A new field arrives with its default. A removed
  field goes along with its port, edge and typed value. A renamed
  field keeps its value in variables, overrides and on ports with
  edges, also through nested types.
- Undo for these edits records plain assignments (Recorder), because
  the reach of a change is not known in advance.
- Cycles such as Loot in Loot, also through another type, are refused
  and not offered in the picker.
- Deleting the asset names how many places use it. Afterwards each
  place keeps its fields as its own.
- Loading reshapes a stale copy in a project file to its type.
- "Make struct type" creates an asset from an existing struct and
  links the place to it.

Differs from the plan:

- A changed default value applies to new fields and newly typed
  places only. Existing values stay.
- Removing a single field shows no warning. Undo brings it back.

Typed lists are left for #254. Lists stay dynamic for now.

Found by e2e: after deleting or renaming the type the inspector did
not rebuild and kept showing the old name. Fixed, the check was red
before.

Tests:
- ./check.sh: 182 files, 2661 tests, CHECK EXIT 0
- GM_STEPS=1,4,21,22,54: ALL PASSED, 176 checks
- 14 unit tests in tests/core/struct-types.test.ts
- New e2e module 54 with 14 checks, real mouse. Module 04 counts
  23 asset types.
- Counter-probes: without the rename pass 4 unit tests fail, without
  reshaping values 8, without the cycle rule 1. In the browser,
  without spreading changes and with + Field despite a type, 3
  checks fail.

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 4857bb75e6 Show lists in the inspector and variables in their own tab (#252)
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 3m24s
game-maker / suite (push) Successful in 10m22s
The List tab could show one list at a time and was the only place to
see its items. A list now shows its items right where it lives, and a
new Variables tab shows all variables of an asset or placed object.

- InlineList draws the items of a list under its row in the inspector,
  in struct fields and in the Variables tab. A list inside a list or a
  struct field is drawn the same way, one step indented.
- The index column is the indent. Items sit under their list without an
  own margin, and the index column is 16 px wide instead of 28 px.
- Above 20 items (INLINE_LIMIT) the rest collapses into "... N more -
  open in tab". During a run the rows show the values from the game.
- ListHead puts "N items" and "+ Item" in one row. "N items" opens the
  list in a tab. A separate Open button squeezed the counter to zero
  width in the narrow inspector column.
- VariablesEditor shows every variable of a behavior asset, a variables
  asset or a placed behavior. On an asset it edits the declarations. On
  a placed object an edit only overrides that object, with the usual
  reset and push buttons.
- Opening a list inside a tab adds a new tab and keeps the open one.
  valuesKey gives each list its own document, so a list that is already
  open is shown instead of opened twice.
- Titles read "Pickup · Variables" or "Listy · nums · [3]". The tab
  closes when its asset or object is deleted.
- Lists on node inputs stay inline only, a node owns no variables.
- The List tab, ListEditor and the __gm.list hook are gone.

Tests:
- ./check.sh: 181 files, 2645 tests, CHECK EXIT 0
- GM_STEPS=1,21,22,32: ALL PASSED, 123 checks
- e2e 21 is rewritten for inline lists and the new tab, 22 and 32 are
  adapted. Sum in README: 1486 (+6 in 21, -1 in 22), counted by hand.
- Counter-probes fail as expected: sub-lists not told apart (1 unit
  test), sub-list replacing the open tab, all items drawn inline (60
  rows instead of 20), no live values (0 rows at 24 items in a run).

rootandClaude Opus 5 8143130ed2 A shared value belongs to no behavior, so it becomes an asset of its own (#91)
game-maker / suite (push) Failing after 8m59s
This reverses the design of the previous commit. `PropertyDef.scope` is gone
without replacement: a behavior variable is an object property again, without
exception, and sharing is something you point at rather than something you
declare twice.

A **Variables asset** is declarations and nothing else -- no graph, no position,
never placed, no tab of its own (`TAB_OF_ASSET` is already `Partial<>`, so that
costs no line). A `Variables` node names one through its new `variablesAsset`
setting, empty meaning the behavior's own variables as before, and then reads
and writes one value per key for the whole run. Its property list follows the
chosen source, which was the actual request: a value another graph declared is
now offerable, where before every participant had to declare the name itself.

That deletes more than it adds (-72 lines net): `globalConflicts` and its
run-stopping kind clash, `SetVariableScopeCommand`, the scope picker, both
object-inspector filters and the "shared by the whole run" note on the placed
object. A typo is no longer a silent second variable -- naming an asset is
picking from a list. And two Variables assets may carry the same key without
meeting, because the asset is the key, not the name. The one shape it copies is
the one that already existed: `Set state` picks its machine the same way.

Lifetime is unchanged. The bag is built at `BehaviorSystem.start()` from the
declarations and never written back, so playing in the editor cannot change the
project -- which is the whole reason a counter must not be an object property
(`World.syncToModel` would `commit()` it, and the coin counter would stand at 7
for good).

Full symmetry across that gap, without mirroring anything. Two named wires:
`Inspector.liveVariables` shows the values as they stand while a run is on and
falls back to the declarations when it ends, and `adoptDeclarations()` takes a
key into the run *only where the document changed it since the last sync*.
Without that condition any unrelated project edit would snap a running counter
back to its starting value; a counter-test bends exactly that and falls over.
Nothing was ever cached, incidentally: `GraphInterpreter` only pulse-caches
nodes without a `read`, and the variable node has one. The wire was missing.

The state machine `Scope` row is now an ordinary `enum` row through
`createFieldRow`. It was hand-built from an `HStack` with a ghost dropdown and
began ~34px left of every value above it; the explanations beside `Local` and
`Global` are gone from the menu, the sentence below the row keeps saying it.
Machine scope is otherwise untouched -- `StateMachineAsset.scope`,
`SetMachineScopeCommand`, `stateBag()` and its persistence all stand, so #59
stays closed as built and `Scope` as a type now carries machines alone.

Six counter-proofs, each biting at its own guard. One of them did not bite at
first: the suggestion list was computed twice, in `nodeSection` and
`portSection`, so only the browser test covered the request itself. It is one
named function now, `variableChoices`, with a unit test of its own.

rootandClaude Opus 5 68c92daaa6 A transition carries a name, so a state needs no visible port (#52)
game-maker / suite (push) Successful in 10m22s
A state keeps its `in`/`out` exec pins in the model and the editor never draws
them. That is the whole trick: connecting, undo, deleting a state and saving all
keep working untouched, because `normalizeGraph` filters nodes and never edges,
and no edge ever checks its port key against a NodeDef. Only two places change --
`NodeView.redraw` stops drawing the row, and `portAt` refuses to hand one out, so
an invisible pin cannot be grabbed either.

Transitions are drawn by right-clicking a state, `Make transition`, then clicking
the target. The armed mode takes the same shape as a live drag, so the existing
preview draws it with no second code path, and it dies with Escape, a click on
empty canvas or a switch to another asset.

Removing the pins removed the only handle a transition had: edges have no
hit-test anywhere, and the pin right-click was the sole route to Disconnect.
The inspector's TRANSITIONS OUT / TRANSITIONS IN lists are therefore not a
convenience, they are the delete path.

`GraphEdge` gained an optional `label`, which `normalizeGraph` has to pass
through explicitly or a saved name is dropped on load. `State transition`
replaces `Next state`: it takes the machine on an input port and the name from a
picker, and resolves against the *current* state. Names are deliberately not
unique across a machine -- two states may both have an `alarm` -- so a node named
`alarm` moves whichever state has one, and an empty name follows the single
unnamed edge.

The geometry moved to a Pixi-free `transitions.ts`: a gap to the box border, and
a fan that puts a pair of opposite edges beside each other instead of on top of
each other. Keeping it as plain maths is what let a screenshot bug become a unit
test -- an earlier pin-to-pin line ran under the target node and took its
arrowhead with it, because `nodeLayer` sits above `edgeLayer`.

One limit stands and is not fixed here: `ConnectCommand` rejects a second edge
between the same two states ("Already connected"), because every transition
hangs off the same two ports. With names, `A --alarm--> B` beside
`A --seen--> B` is a sensible pair, so this is worth its own issue.

rootandClaude Fable 5.1 e7d82bd1a9 State machines: asset, tab, State branch and Set state nodes (#51)
A state machine is an asset whose graph holds one `State` node per state
(no ports, name as title), edited in a new "State machine" tab that reuses
the graph canvas: right-click places "State n", snap toggle shared with the
Behavior tab via SnapToggle. `statemachine` is a value kind like texture
(port, literal node, variable, struct field, tagged list item).

Behaviors use it through `State branch` (one exec output per state) and
`Set state` (one exec input per state; the interpreter now hands `run` the
entry port). States live per behavior instance in NodeContext.states, with
no initial state. Ports derive from the inline picker or a wired
`State machine` literal; BehaviorLookup became GraphLookup with
behavior(id) and machine(id).

The Graph tab is labelled "Behavior" (key unchanged). Unit tests
(state-machine, kinds, catalog, ports), e2e step 26 and README added.

rootandClaude Opus 5 58f19a3451 Replace the property nodes with one Properties node
Get/Set property, Get/Set properties, Set enabled and Set text are gone.
A single Properties node takes a fixed "object" input; every chosen
property is an output that reads the current value, and one switched to
Set is also an input written when the flow arrives. Exec pins only exist
while at least one entry writes.

The node carries a type (Sprite, Text, Collider, Camera, Container,
Behavior, Any) that decides what "+ Property" offers: the fields of that
type, the variables of the chosen behavior, or for Any a kind to pick
and a name to type. Each port takes the default and field of its type,
so a Camera width starts at 640. Switching the type keeps the ports and
marks those the new type lacks. At runtime the type is only an editor
aid; the node writes to whatever object it gets.

Old project files are converted on load. The type is inferred from the
keys: the first object type that has them all, else the one behavior
that declares them all, else Any. enabled belongs to every object, so a
converted Set enabled lands on Any.

The jump-run and tetris seeders use Properties throughout; draw-piece
switches its cell on in the same node that sets the colour.

rootandClaude Opus 5 7c63c884ef Replace the five variable nodes with one Variables node
A single node now lists any number of variables. Every entry is an output
that reads the current value whenever it is pulled; an entry switched to
Set is also an input and is written when the flow arrives. Exec pins only
exist while at least one entry writes, and all inputs are read before any
write, so one node can swap two variables.

Get/Set variable, Get/Set variables and Variable are gone. Old project
files are converted on load: each old node becomes a Variables node with
the same variables, edges and typed values.

A written port without a typed value now shows the zero of its kind on
the node body, matching what the inspector shows and what the run writes.

rootandClaude Opus 5 854ae2e756 Add Get/Set properties nodes and a breadcrumb for opened sub-behaviors
Get properties / Set properties work like their variable counterparts:
one port per chosen property, an unconnected input writes its inline
value. A port chosen from the built-in list keeps that property's field
and default (height starts at 100, color is a colour field). "object" is
reserved for the fixed input, checked by the command and on load.

The property picker names the owning type ("Sprite width"), and text
fields can now carry a suggestion list; Get/Set property use it.

Double-clicking a call node shows the path of opened behaviors under the
graph header. Clicking an entry jumps back and trims the path; choosing
a behavior any other way hides it. Reopening a behavior already on the
path steps back to it instead of repeating it. The bar shows before the
graph switches, otherwise it clips the graph that was just fitted.

The "Add node..." header button is gone; nodes come from the context menu.

Adding a collider now lives only in the Scene objects context menu, deleting a node on
the Delete key and the node context menu. The e2e checks that pinned the inspector button
now drive the hierarchy menu instead, including that its entry is disabled on template
content and on a placed container without raising a notice.

rootandClaude Opus 5 8f92a06c84 Consolidate duplicated editor code, trim comments, refresh README
Split GraphCanvas (1076 -> 831 lines) into EdgeLayer and graphMenus;
the port and marker menus were the same list and are now one function.
Value specs of the inspector and the list tab share valueSpecs.ts, and
the remaining copies (compound commands, type glyphs, typed asset
lookup, name rule, play/editor world setup, marquee) are merged.

Four copies had already drifted apart; merging them fixes:
- "Disconnect N links" in the port menu is one undo step, not N
- "+ Add collider" is hidden on a placed container instance, as in
  the hierarchy menu, instead of always failing
- a bool property coerced from the text "false" becomes false
- a port command on an unknown node type reports instead of crashing

Comment-only edits leave the bundle byte-identical. README corrected in
35 places (step limit, jump-run clock, suite duration, 409 body, ...).

root 14f542365e Build a Pack or Expand node's ports from a struct variable
The port editor gets 'From variable' next to '+ Field': pick a struct variable
of the behavior and its fields land as ports. It only adds - a field the node
already declares stays as it is, because it may carry an edge - and the entry
is disabled once there is nothing left to add. A list of structs counts too:
it declares the shape of every item, which is exactly the bundle a Pack builds
for it. A color field arrives as a number port; the graph has no color type.

AddPortsCommand is new underneath: adding five ports had to be one undo step,
and it checks every key before it appends a single one, so a collision does
not leave half the list behind. AddPortCommand is a three-line subclass of it,
which leaves its sixteen call sites untouched.

rootandClaude Opus 5 f60358c951 Let a list hold structs, and read or write variables in bundles
A list item may now be a struct. The depth is bounded in the declaration
rather than by a comment: FieldKind (number|text|boolean|color) says what a
struct field holds, ListItemKind adds struct on top and says what a list
holds, so list -> struct -> primitive is the deepest storable shape and
sameValue stays finite. A struct item renders inline in the List tab, which
is why it needs no path in the slot address.

Four paths silently assumed a list item was a primitive: sameValue compared
items with ===, textOf would have printed [object Object], asListItem turned
a struct into text on Set item and Fill, and Index of used indexOf, which is
reference equality and could never have found a struct.

Tetris now runs on bundles. shapes is 112 {x, y} structs instead of 224 loose
numbers, piece and the candidate are structs, so Next move hands back a whole
candidate and each strand packs only the field it changes, since mergeStruct
leaves the rest standing. Declared behavior ports drop 49 -> 35, the master's
variables 18 -> 13, its graph 84/94 -> 69/76 nodes/edges.

Get variables and Set variables declare their ports from a list of variable
names, the way Pack and Expand already do, so one node can read or write
several at once. Renaming a variable rewires them, because there the port key
is the variable name.

rootandClaude Opus 5 e52e95c0e9 Give a list its own tab instead of a comma line
A list property in the inspector was a single text field holding a comma
separated line -- unreadable past a handful of items, and it could not
carry anything but text. It becomes a button ("3 items") that opens a
sixth centre tab, where every item is a row built by the very widget the
inspector would build for that item kind.

The renderer was free: a PropertyDef of kind 'list' already carries
`items`, so item i becomes a synthetic def of that kind -- number, text,
boolean and colour rows appear without a new branch.

The way into the tab goes through the state (EditorState.listSlot,
openList(), event 'list'), like every other tab switch here; a tab may
not call showTab itself. ListSlot lives next to Selection rather than in
the tab folder, or state.ts would have to import upwards.

A row's handlers must not close over a snapshot of the list: they outlive
a commit, since the tab only rebuilds when the length changes, and the
second edited row would otherwise revive the value the first replaced.

showTab switched five `visible` lines by hand, where a sixth tab is
silently forgotten; it is a Record<CentreTab, Widget> now.

root 3c76106fd2 Let a Sequence grow an output as you connect the last one
The Outputs setting is gone. A Sequence now keeps one free output below the
last connected one: nothing plugged in is one output, connecting the spare
grows a new one, unplugging the bottom edge shrinks it back.

It counts the last *connected* port rather than the number of edges, so
unplugging a middle one leaves a gap instead of silently dropping an edge.

Removing the setting also removes a bug it caused. Typing in the Outputs field
did nothing and the arrow keys did nothing, while dragging the value worked:
onInput fires per keystroke, the preview writes into node.params, that emits
'project', and Inspector.refreshValues() sees the node's signature change --
the port list is part of it -- so it rebuilds and destroys the row being typed
in. A drag survives because it keeps receiving globalpointermove on the old
widget. refreshValues() has no focus guard where refreshLive() does; the trap
is still there for the next typed field that changes a node's shape.

Ports that depend on the edges around a node mean derivePorts needs the graph,
not just the params, so resolveDef and portSignature take it too. And a node
whose ports are derived cannot know how many it has from its type, so run is
handed the definition resolved for it.

root b6a609ae24 Let a node work out its own ports
Ports that vary per node already existed, but only for the three nested-behavior
types, and the rule for them sat as a switch on type names in nested.ts – the
one place in the project that knew node types by name. It dissolves into two
optional contracts on NodeDef, so a type carries its own rule:

  declaresPorts  the node holds an editable list, shown as a section in the
                 inspector – behavior start/end, and now Pack/Expand
  derivePorts    the node computes them from its settings – Sequence from a
                 count, Run behavior from the behavior it names

Sequence gains an Outputs setting (2 to 26). Its keys stay a, b, c and count on
with d, e, so the edges of the sequences already out there survive.

A param can now take a port away, and the edge on it would stay: it draws as
nothing yet survives every save, and comes back to life if the port returns.
SetNodeParamCommand takes those edges with it, which also closes the same leak
that switching a Run behavior node's target has always had.

The port editor addresses its node by id rather than by type, so two Pack nodes
can live in one graph, and it calls the rows Fields when they are not a
behavior's signature.

rootandClaude Opus 5 c6f907b4e0 Make a call node say why it does nothing, and easier to place
A behavior node that cannot run looked exactly like a healthy one: no
start node, no behavior picked, a deleted behavior or a self-call were
all silently skipped. The call still had to be forgiving at runtime -- a
dangling reference must not abort a game -- so the fix is diagnosis, not
an exception: describeProblem() names the one reason, the node draws it
in red under its title, and the inspector repeats it where you pick the
behavior. A missing end node is deliberately not a problem: a call is
always synchronous, and the end node only decides which values come back.

Two ways in: a behavior dragged from the asset panel lands in the graph
under the pointer, and double-clicking a call node opens the graph it
runs. Both reuse machinery that already existed -- the asset panel
already starts the drag, and list views already report double clicks.

The e2e module needed its assets at the head of the asset list: after 18
modules the list is long enough that a newly appended row scrolls out of
view, and the press then lands on the panel behind it, starting no drag
at all. That looked exactly like a rejected drop and cost two full runs.

root 6702ff8abe Let a behavior be a node in another graph
A behavior that has a Start and an End node can now be dropped into any
other graph as a node of its own. What is declared on the start node
becomes the inputs of that node, what hangs on the end node its outputs;
the port list is derived from the sub graph, not copied, so declaring a
port in one graph grows the node in the other without touching it. The
node carries the behavior's name and the palette lists behaviors by
name, so a call is one grab instead of a node plus a dropdown.

An embedded behavior has no object and therefore no place for
variables: every call starts on the asset defaults and communicates
only through its ports. That is the conservative direction - state can
still be added later, and shared state already has a home in a behavior
object in the scene. Node ids are unique per graph only, so each call
gets its own pulse cache; without that, two graphs would collide.

Renaming a port used to silently drop the value typed on the calling
node. It is carried along now, project wide, like the edges.

rootandClaude Opus 5 4d84231b9f Trim needless comments and fix the picker width
Remove comments that only restate the code, keeping the section banners
and the notes that carry a reason, a measured fact or an external
contract.

ButtonOptions.width claimed to be a fixed width but only set minWidth,
so the Graph and Texture pickers grew with the name they showed. It is
now what it promises, with a separate minWidth for the buttons that have
two forms. Narrow buttons shrink their padding, otherwise a 24px icon
button had 8px left for its glyph and truncate dropped it entirely.

__gm.labelsDropped() guards that class: the overflow guard only saw text
that was too wide, never a label truncated to nothing.

rootandClaude Opus 5 5a6af74e44 Add textures for sprites
Images are uploaded to a content-addressed blob endpoint and stored as
data/textures/<sha256>.<ext>; the project only keeps the file name. The
sprite points at a texture asset through an ordinary property of the new
kind `asset`, so instance overrides, "Apply to container", "Reset to
asset", undo and `Set property` work without any extra code. The new kind
also replaces the ad-hoc asset picker the graph nodes faked as an enum.

Import goes through + -> Texture, drag & drop onto the canvas or Ctrl+V.
Images wider than 2048px are downscaled client-side and re-encoded to
WebP if needed, because nginx caps uploads at 1MB; an image that already
fits is uploaded byte for byte so pixel art is never resampled.

The sprite colour default changes from red to white, since colour tints
the texture multiplicatively and a tint of white shows an image as it is.

rootandClaude Opus 5 d54a620ebd Add ESLint and Prettier, and close the node test gaps
Tooling:
- Prettier as the single formatting authority (110 columns, single quotes,
  measured against the existing style); Markdown excluded because table-cell
  padding turns the README glossary into 1000-character lines.
- Type-aware ESLint ending in eslint-config-prettier, so a rule always means
  "this is a bug", never "this looks different".
- .editorconfig and an `npm run check` that runs typecheck, lint, format and
  tests in one go.

Findings fixed on the first run: three more duplicate imports, four
String(unknown) calls (parameter types narrowed instead of casts), two dead
initialisers, two redundant casts, a console.log for a real error. Two
warnings were false here and are disabled with a reason in place.

Tests 132 -> 269:
- node-catalog.test.ts covers every node with a run(), with a guard that fails
  when a new node has no row.
- behavior-events.test.ts covers the ten event nodes through a running World,
  checking timing rather than existence.
- Input's state machine (press/release/releaseAll) is reachable without DOM
  events now; the DOM handlers are thin adapters.

Compare fell back to == without a configured operator although the schema
default is <; aligned.
