adminandClaude Opus 5.5 3e8c88c66d Add a node that names the collision layer of an object (#211)
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 2m36s
game-maker / suite (push) Successful in 13m16s
The issue asked for three nodes: Set layer, Set collides with and Layer
of. A probe showed that the finding behind the first two is outdated.
The Properties node of type Collider already writes both settings while
the game runs, and both collision systems see the change at once. As
agreed, only Layer of is built, and writing stays with Properties.

- Layer of is a data node with the input object and the outputs name
  and number. The name is what the project calls the layer.
- NodeContext.collisionLayerOf answers the number, and the new field
  collisionLayers on GraphLookup brings the names to the node.
- layerHolderOf in solids.ts says whose layer counts. An object stands
  for its first collider child, a collider or tilemap for itself.
- Decided here: a collider that is switched off counts too, because
  its layer is set either way.
- Decided here: without a collider the name is empty and the number
  is -1.
- The node is a read, not a run, so it answers at the moment it is
  asked. Right after a Set in the same flow it names the new layer.
- The output number was not asked for. It fits the layer port of
  Properties as it is.

Changing the layer during a run had no test at all so far. Five tests
now hold it in both systems.

Tests:
- Gate: 198 files, 2929 tests (2914 + 15), exit 0
- e2e 1-6: 285 checks passed (06: +2 for block 6z-x)
- Five unit tests for the change during a run: a mover is blocked,
  passes and is blocked again, a ray with a layer filter follows the
  change, and a dynamic body falls through the ground in Play
- Six unit tests for Layer of, three against each system, and four
  cases in the node catalog
- 6z-x finds the node in the palette, checks its ports and logs
  "Ghost" and "1" for the owner's collider in a Play run
- Two counter-probes for the change during a run fail 1 and 4 tests,
  and only new ones, so those places were unguarded before
- Six counter-probes for Layer of fail 2 to 3 tests each. All eight
  ran on stein2, not in the container.
- The browser counter-probe fails 6z-x with "Layer 1" and "1"
- The e2e sum of 1619 is calculated (1617 measured in CI run 276,
  plus 2). Neither the full suite nor the smokes ran for this state.
- Not looked at in the browser: that the layer port of Properties
  shows the same picker as the inspector.

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 14972d057f Refactoring round 8: hide data files, safe saves, Esc as Cancel (#85)
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 3m53s
game-maker / suite (push) Successful in 11m55s
Recurring cleanup round over the code since round 7 (bc688f3). The
issue now also asks to fix bugs and small inconsistencies found on the
way, so unlike the rounds before, this one changes behaviour in a few
places. Duplicated code in api went from 23 clones with 228 lines to
none (jscpd, at least 50 tokens). In src it stays at 22 clones with
271 lines, the same before and after.

Bugs:
- nginx served project and snapshot files as they were, so anyone who
  knew a project id could read it without signing in. Every file the
  API writes now goes through AtomicFile (temp file, mode, rename).
  Projects, snapshots, releases, accounts and sessions are 0640, and
  nginx answers 403 for them.
- Any signed-in account could delete a shared image, font or sound,
  which projects of other accounts may wear. Deleting one is now for
  administrators only. The editor never deleted a file, so the
  client's delete is gone.
- Two saves of one project could run at once. The lock file was
  removed after each save, so a waiting save and the next one locked
  different files. The lock file now stays, and deleting a project
  takes the lock as well.
- Bytes that are no picture got a 500 instead of a 422, because the
  error handler also threw for warnings silenced with @.
- A session file was rewritten in place. A request reading it at that
  moment found it empty and was signed out. It is replaced atomically.
- Delete did nothing for a shape picked in the vector art list. Delete
  now goes through removeSelection, one case per kind of selection,
  and a kind without a case fails the type check.

Inconsistencies:
- Escape on a question does what its Cancel does. Cancel on "Delete
  project?" and "Restore snapshot?" leads back to the picker or the
  list like the other questions did, and so does deleting a project.
- Editor texts use American spelling throughout, like the port names:
  48 British spellings in 45 lines (colour, centre, initialised).
- objectName and groupName replace eleven copies of "own name, else
  the asset's" and three of "Group". One copy fell back to the object
  id instead of "?".

Duplicates, dead code, comments:
- routeFiles serves images, fonts and sounds instead of three copies.
  HashedFileStore holds what the three stores shared: keeping a file
  under its hash with its name, listing and deleting. The stores keep
  only which bytes they take and what a record says.
- AtomicFile replaces nine copies of temp file plus rename.
- removeShapes is the one way the canvas, the inspector button and
  Delete take shapes out.
- GraphInterpreter.fire was called by tests only. The 54 calls use a
  helper in tests/helpers.ts now.
- FileStore.delete, HttpFileStore.delete and the PluginApi type were
  unused. A doc comment in actions.ts sat above the wrong function.

Checked and left as is:
- solidCells is used by tests only. It is the per-cell view before the
  merge into rectangles, the one place the largest-scale rule shows.
- An undo checker ran all 124 commands of the unit tests and compared
  the project before and after undo. The only differences are empty
  ports, groups and notes lists where there were none, which the file
  format drops anyway.

Docs:
- README: the check sum.
- Wiki, own commit: API (admin-only deletes, 422, file modes, lock
  file), Home (the "Not yet" list named three things that exist),
  Concepts, Keyboard, Vector art, Architecture and Development, and
  the 38 characters Gitea flagged as ambiguous on eight pages.
- .gitignore: the lock files, and pasted-*.png in any folder, which
  keeps the screenshot archive out.

Tests:
- ./check.sh: 195 files, 2817 tests, exit 0 (+2 for the name helpers).
- PHP: accounts 52 in the web container and 53 in the CI image with
  the race test (+2), snapshots 15 (+1), releases 20.
- Full e2e run: ALL PASSED, 1586 checks (+6 in 12, 47, 49 and 50).
- Smokes jumprun, tetris, actor: 24, 19 and 21 checks. The example
  project files were restored byte for byte afterwards.
- The file stores of HEAD and of this commit give byte-identical
  output for the live folders and for store, list and delete in a
  throwaway folder.
- Counter-checks, all fail as expected: a 500 for bad bytes fails 12,
  no admin check fails 49, removing the lock file again loses saves
  in 3 of 3 runs (151 to 170 of 321), Delete ignoring shapes fails 47,
  Escape that only closes fails 50, and dropping the shape case fails
  the type check (TS2366).

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 0c41cb97b1 Clip the children of an object to a clip area (#260)
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 3m43s
game-maker / suite (push) Failing after 11m7s
An inventory grid could not scroll, because nothing could cut a child
off at an edge. A game also had no way to hear the mouse wheel. Both
are needed for a scrolling list, a dialog text or a window with more
content than room.

- A new object type Clip area has width and height and turns, scales
  and mirrors with its parent. The size gizmo drags width and height.
- Everything below a clip area, on every level, is drawn only inside
  its rectangle, in the Scene view as in the game. Nested areas cut to
  their intersection. The rule works on a convex polygon, so a turned
  area cuts right as well.
- On click, Is hovered and On mouse wheel do not hit a cut-off part.
  The Scene view does not pick it either.
- In the Scene view the area is a dashed frame that is grabbed only at
  its edge, so a click inside lands on the content. The eye under
  Shape hides the frame. In the game the area is invisible.
- While an object below an area or one of its parents is selected, the
  Scene view shows the cut-off part at 30 % opacity and it can be
  grabbed there. The rule lives in core/properties/clip.ts.
- The Properties node knows the type Clip area.
- The new event node On mouse wheel fires by the rule of On click. Its
  delta counts in notches, positive is down, and a frame's turns
  arrive as one value. It also gives x and y.

Limits:

- Only sprites and texts show the faded rest. Tilemaps and particles
  are cut and can be grabbed when open, but are not shown faded.
- Masks by texture shape are out, as noted in the issue.

Tests:

- ./check.sh: 2773 tests, CHECK EXIT 0.
- Full e2e run (local): ALL PASSED, 1549 checks, measured.
- tests/core/clip-areas.test.ts: 12 tests for the cut rule, scene and
  game, save and load, hits, the wheel with and without owner, the
  notch conversion and the open rule.
- e2e 58, 5 checks with real mouse and wheel: the scene cuts (74 of 74
  red inside, 0 outside), a click on the cut part picks nothing, the
  selected rest is faded and grabbable, the game cuts, one notch
  logs 1.
- e2e 04 and 46 count the object types and the eye rows. They now
  include Clip area.
- Counter-checks: 6 in unit tests and 3 in the browser, all fail as
  expected. The originals were restored and checked with cmp.

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 4e6aeb5f72 Query objects in bulk and filter, count or test a list (#259)
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 3m36s
game-maker / suite (push) Failing after 10m6s
The object queries only ever returned one object: Object by name,
Child by name and Find all stop at the first hit. Getting every coin,
every child or every item that passes a test needed a For each with
its own bookkeeping. These nodes return the whole set as a list of
Object, so For each and Find can use item straight away.

- Objects by name returns every scene object with that name in scene
  order.
- Children by name returns every match below object, nearer levels
  first, the same order as the singular node.
- Children returns the direct children, with recursive all of them
  level by level.
- Objects of asset returns every instance of an object asset or
  container by the same rule as Is asset, spawned ones included.
- All four take a snapshot. Destroyed objects are never in it,
  disabled ones are, as with the singular nodes.
- Find has a Mode setting: First, All, Any and Count. First is the
  default and hides the row, so existing graphs look the same.
- Match follows the mode of its paired Find: done with items and
  indices, done with any, or done with count. An unpaired Match shows
  First, since the pairing only comes from the wiring.
- First and Any stop at the first hit, All and Count walk the list.
- Changing the mode drops edges at outputs the Match no longer has,
  in one undo step. SetNodeParamCommand now cleans the whole graph,
  but only edges that were valid before the change.
- The palette entry "filter" adds a Find set to All with its Match.

Found on the way:

- After adding the filter entry, "find" + Enter picked Filter. The
  entry has node type Find, counted as an exact hit, and the tie went
  to the alphabet. The search now ranks by the entry id. e2e 6z-v
  caught it.

Tests:

- ./check.sh: 188 files, 2746 tests, CHECK EXIT 0.
- find-modes.test.ts with 11 tests, 11 catalog cases for the four
  nodes, the asset input guard now expects 3.
- e2e 6z-vii with 3 checks: filter from the palette, Count picked in
  the inspector drops the items edge, a run logs 2, 2, 2, 3, 4, "0, 2".
- GM_STEPS=1-6: all passed, 278 checks.
- Counter-checks fail as expected: every mode stopping early (2),
  Match ignoring the mode (6), cleanup on the own node only (1), no
  recursion (2), no inOrder (2), old ranking (1). In the browser a
  Match ignoring the mode fails both editor checks.

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 f84defb9b6 Pick an object of the same scene for an Object variable (#258)
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 3m32s
game-maker / suite (push) Failing after 10m2s
An Object variable could only be set by a graph while the game runs.
A placed object always showed "(null)", although the other objects of
its scene are there to choose from and the runtime can already find
any object by its id. Now the placed object stores a reference to one
of them, and the running game turns it into the real object.

- Stored as {"$object": "<id>"}. The empty placeholder stays as it
  was, so old projects load unchanged and empty still means "(null)".
- The row of an Object variable on a placed object is a dropdown with
  None and every object of the scene, indented like the Hierarchy.
  The same goes for Object fields in structs and Object items in
  lists, also in the Variables and List tabs.
- The behavior asset keeps "(null)". An asset has no scene, so "Apply
  to asset" is gone from Object rows.
- The runtime resolves the reference when the Variables or Properties
  node reads it. A destroyed target reads as null, a missing one shows
  "(missing)" in the row.
- Inside a container only objects of the same container are offered.
  The reference keeps the template id, so every placement finds its
  own copy.
- Deleting the target clears the reference in the same undo step.
  Paste points references inside the pasted group at the copies and
  leaves outside references alone. Create container and Unpack carry
  references along with the new ids.
- A value a graph writes while running stays in the run. The scene
  keeps the picked object, also in "Run in editor".

Found on the way:

- Setting an override coerced every object slot to empty, in plain
  values, struct fields and list items. The shared objectPlace() now
  keeps the reference.

Not done:

- No eyedropper to pick in the scene, the dropdown is enough for now.
- Deleting a template object in the container editor does not clean up
  references in other scenes. They read as null there.

Tests:

- ./check.sh: 187 files, 2724 tests, CHECK EXIT 0
- e2e 1-9, 51, 57: ALL PASSED, 389 checks
- e2e 1, 57 on the final bundle: ALL PASSED, 17 checks
- 13 unit tests in object-references.test.ts, 5 checks in e2e 57
- Counter-checks: 8 unit breaks fail their tests, the browser break
  without a pick list fails 57b-57d

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 483c34bb5c Let Destroy keep the children and hand them back as a list
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 3m15s
game-maker / suite (push) Successful in 9m41s
Destroying a container used to take everything below it along. Now
Destroy can remove just the object itself and pass its direct children
on, so a behavior can keep working with what was inside.

- New input keep children (bool, default off). When on, only the
  object goes. Its direct children move up to the object's parent, or
  to the top level if there is none. Grandchildren stay where they are.
- New output children (object list) with the direct children that were
  kept. It is empty when keep children is off.
- The children keep their place on screen. carriedTransform folds the
  destroyed object's position, rotation and scale into their own, the
  same as reparenting in the editor.
- Behaviors and the rigidbody of the object are always destroyed with
  it and are not in the list. Moved up they would steer or simulate
  the parent.
- World remembers which children it reparented, and syncToModel writes
  their new parent into the scene. A reload of the model keeps it.
- Limit, read from the code only: in the editor run the contents of a
  placed container are not baked. Moved children there last for the
  run only.

Tests:
- ./check.sh: 170 files, 2478 tests, CHECK EXIT 0
- e2e 34 (the module with a Destroy node): ALL PASSED, 21 checks
- world-sync: world matrix of child and grandchild unchanged under a
  rotated and scaled parent, parent survives syncFromModel, top level
  case, already destroyed object gives []
- destroy-keep-children: real graph Destroy(Owner) -> Log(children)
  logs Lid, Label without the grandchild Nail
- 3 counter-probes, all caught: no world transform (1 test fails), no
  parent in the scene (1), behaviors and rigidbody moved up (2)

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 98211a8d54 Let a variable hold an object across behavior runs
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 3m15s
game-maker / suite (push) Failing after 9m2s
A spawned object was only reachable in the run that spawned it. The
Spawn output could not go into a variable because "object" was a
port-only kind, so the next run had no way back to the instance.

- "Object" is now a variable kind. The reference lives for the run
  only. The file stores the declaration and an empty value.
- The live reference sits in slots beside the variable bag
  (graph/objectSlots.ts), not in it. The bag is the behavior's props,
  and syncToModel would have written an object into the scene.
- A destroyed object, or one from a restarted or left scene, reads as
  nothing. A dead reference is dropped from its slot.
- Keep (#229) hands the slots of kept variables on to the next call
  of a sub-behavior.
- Properties of kind Behavior reads and writes another behavior's
  object variable through the same slots.
- The inspector shows "(null)" for it and offers no input.
- A persistent Variables asset with an object variable shows a
  warning under "Persistent". Saved values never keep the object,
  every run starts it at (null).

Objects inside lists and struct fields are left out on purpose.
Emptiness is checked with Equals against an empty b. A node "Is
valid" does not exist yet.

The test helper graphEditor().variables() now also reads the kinds
of a Variables asset a node points to.

Tests:
- ./check.sh: 169 files, 2463 tests, CHECK EXIT 0
- e2e 6 + 23: ALL PASSED, 146 checks (new 23k, 2 checks)
- e2e 32: ALL PASSED, 18 checks (new 32f-ii)
- 10 unit tests in tests/core/object-variable.test.ts, one of them
  runs a persistent asset over two runs
- 5 counter-probes (value in bag, isAlive always true, no Keep
  hand-over, Properties without slots, object in saved values) each
  fail their test
- e2e check total 1406, computed only

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 923baf2557 Let Spawn take an asset over an edge and find a child by name (#237)
An asset could only be picked as a setting on the Spawn node. It could
not be wired in, held in a variable or put into a list. Finding an
object below the own one needed a scene-wide search by name.

- "Asset" is now a kind like Animation or Sound: port, variable, list
  item and a new "Asset" literal node, with its own cube icon.
- Spawn and Is asset have an `asset` input. It uses the key of the old
  setting, so a saved asset reads as the value of the input and older
  projects keep spawning without a migration.
- New node "Child by name" searches below an object level by level.
  A child wins over a grandchild of the same name. Nothing found or no
  object gives null.

Tests:
- ./check.sh: 168 files, 2453 tests, CHECK EXIT 0.
- 9 new unit tests in tests/core/asset-kind.test.ts, catalog cases for
  Spawn, Is asset, Child by name and the literal.
- e2e 6z-ii (2 checks): node rows and a real drag of the literal onto
  `asset`. e2e 6: 119 checks passed. Spawn checks in 3 and 9 passed.
- Counter-checks: depth-first search fails 1, Spawn reading only the
  old setting fails 3, runtime ignoring the parent fails 1.

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 d444b27fae Let behaviors read and set tilemap cells while the game runs (#135)
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 2m59s
game-maker / suite (push) Successful in 9m22s
A behavior could move sprites around but had no way to look at or
change the tilemap it was standing on. Doors, breakable blocks and
"is there ground ahead?" checks all need that.

- New nodes Tile at, Set tile, World to cell and Cell to world. The
  conversion honours position, rotation, scale and mirroring of the
  placed map. A small Tile literal node lets a graph compare what it
  read against a fixed tile.
- The layer is picked by name from all tilemap layers in the project
  through a new field kind. "First layer" takes the map's first one.
  Because layer is an input, a text can also be wired in.
- Each placement keeps only its edited cells in liveTilemap.ts,
  layered over the asset's cells. A second placement of the same map
  stays untouched, and the asset itself is never written.
- A read sees a Set tile from earlier in the same flow. Drawing picks
  up the edit at once and neighbouring autotile edges adapt.
- Solids see the edits straight away, so a Move in the same frame
  already hits the new cell. Rapier rebuilds its shapes on the next
  step.
- After Stop the map is back to what was painted. The editor run shows
  the edit in the scene view while it lasts and does not touch the
  project.
- An unwired tilemap input means no map, like Get position. Cells
  outside the grid are refused and done reports false.

Tests:
- ./check.sh: 155 files, 2271 tests, CHECK EXIT 0 (before 2245).
- tests/core/tile-access.test.ts (14), one physics test for a floor
  set at runtime, catalog entries for the five nodes.
- e2e 39,40: all passed, 86 checks (before 81), five new in 40s.
- Counter-checks: collision ignoring edits fails 3 unit tests, the
  solids cache missing same-tick edits fails only the "at once" test,
  drawing ignoring edits fails the 2 drawing checks, the editor run
  not reporting a new tile fails only its check.
- 40s uses a still tile. The animated fixture tile redraws every frame
  and hid the last counter-check at first.
- Check total 1351 + 5 = 1356, computed. CI confirmed 1351 at cb32b4b.

adminandClaude Opus 5 41772e53f7 Variables assets can keep their values from one run to the next (#166)
game-maker / suite (push) Successful in 8m21s
game-maker / gate (push) Failing after 3h5m52s
A game needs a high score or an unlocked level to survive the end of
a run. As agreed in the issue there are no save or load nodes. A
Variables asset gets a switch instead, and the existing Variables
nodes read and write the values as before.

- A "Persistent" checkbox in the Variables inspector. Toggling it is
  one undo step, and absent means not persistent.
- The behavior system loads the saved values at start and writes them
  after every frame that changed one, so a closed tab loses nothing.
- Values live in localStorage per project, not in the project file.
  Another browser or person starts fresh.
- Play and "Run in editor" save apart, so trying a behavior in the
  editor leaves the Play save alone.
- Saved values are read through the current declaration. A removed
  variable drops out, a new one starts from its default, and a changed
  kind is converted.
- "Clear saved values" in the inspector clears this asset in both
  areas. The main menu gets "Clear saved data" for the whole project.
  Clearing takes effect from the next run on.

Decisions:
- The switch covers the whole asset, not single variables. Mixing
  both means two assets.
- A changed default in the inspector shows only after the save is
  cleared. That is what persistent means.

Findings:
- The first e2e run died at "debug hook present" right after a Vulkan
  error from Chrome. The second run passed, so it was a GPU flake at
  start-up.

Tests:
- ./check.sh: 140 files, 2070 tests, exit 0 (before 138 / 2055).
- 15 new unit tests in tests/core/saved-values.test.ts and
  tests/editor/saves.test.ts.
- GM_STEPS=32,46 fresh: ALL PASSED, 24 checks. Six new checks in
  module 32 go through the UI. Module 46 knows the new menu entry.
- Counter-checks both fail as expected. Loading switched off: 2 unit
  tests and 2 e2e checks fail. Editor run writing into the Play area:
  1 e2e check fails.
- Check total 1278 (1272 measured by CI at bbbf341, plus 6).

adminandClaude Opus 5 3427f84a55 A game can pause itself and set its own time scale (#167)
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 2m11s
game-maker / suite (push) Successful in 7m48s
Until now only the editor toolbar could pause a running game. A pause
menu inside the game had no way to stop the world while its own graph
kept running, and there was no slow motion.

- Five new nodes: Pause game, Resume game, Is game paused, Set time
  scale and Time scale. Pause and resume take effect on the next frame.
- A game pause stops world time, physics, animations, particles and
  shader time. Only behaviors with the new "Run while paused" switch
  keep running.
- Set time scale 0 freezes the world but graphs keep running, as
  agreed in the issue.
- Play and Stop reset the time scale to 1, Load scene keeps it. The
  pause belongs to the scene, so Load scene and Restart unpause.
- The toolbar pause stays separate and also freezes the menu. When the
  game pauses itself the status line reads "The game paused itself".
- While paused, collision events are not reported, sounds keep
  playing, and the editor run ignores both nodes with a log line.

Findings:
- The first status line was longer than any before and got cut with
  an ellipsis. It is shorter now.
- The e2e harness did not know the key "p". It does now.

Tests:
- ./check.sh: 133 files, 1968 tests, exit 0 (before 132 / 1952)
- npm run build: exit 0
- GM_STEPS=18 fresh: ALL PASSED, 33 checks (before 26)
- 16 new unit tests: 8 catalog cases, game-pause.test.ts, editor run
- 7 new e2e checks in block 18i, driven by real keys in the game
- Six counter-checks all bite: behavior filter, collision lock, world
  time, editor run, clock reset and the game clock in the browser

adminandClaude Opus 5 ffdf0a8ddb The new node "Raycast all" answers with every collider along the ray instead of only the nearest one: it carries the same inputs and settings as Raycast (Ignore owner, Hit triggers, Layers from #158) plus "max hits" where 0 means all, and it hands back parallel lists sorted by distance - objects, colliders, points x/y, normals x/y, distances - next to count, so index i of every list speaks about the same hit; a collider counts once no matter how many convex parts its shape is built from, while a tilemap counts per cell it is hit in, and the filter sits in Solids.raycastAll like the one of #158, the one path the editor run and Play both take, so all 12 new unit tests run through describe.each against both systems; the node needed the value system to learn something it could not do - a graph list carried numbers, text, booleans and bundles but no object handles, asList turned an object into its name, so objects/colliders would have been lists of names, which loses the object when two carry the same name, and collider children usually do; Value now knows a travelling list that may hold handles and "Item at" gives such an item out as an object, ready for Destroy, Apply force or Name of, while the single door into a stored file - writeTyped/asTypeOf - runs the list through the new storedList() so every object becomes its name again and nothing living reaches a project file, which is its own unit test over JSON.stringify; three list nodes follow the handles: "Index of" compares objects by identity because a name is not the object of that name, "Set item" and "Fill" write an object as an object, and "Join text" prints the names instead of the innards; this decision was mine to make because the question ran into the MCP timeout - the alternative was a list of names plus "Object by name", which is the smaller change but lossy; 4 new e2e checks in the new block 43e (shield and floor in one go reading 2 and "145, 280", the second object answering to its name, which only a real object in a list can do, "max hits" 1 stopping at the nearest, and the node showing the row) and 18 new unit tests, 12 in raycast.test.ts, 4 on the value system and 2 in the node catalog; two counter-checks hold: not counting tilemap cells one by one drops 2 unit tests, and answering with the nearest hit only drops module 43 with 2 FAILs; one finding on the way - the node read "maxHits" while every other input carries a spoken label, because int() took the key as its label, so it has a third parameter now, and the e2e check caught that, no unit test did (#157)

admin 1e9d21cd5d A game that is more than one scene needs a way from one to the next, so the graph can load one (#39)
game-maker / suite (push) Failing after 11m6s
Load scene sets a flag on the World like Stop and Restart do; the swap
happens after the tick, and the last wish of a tick wins. Exactly one
thing crosses over: the SharedState, so global variables and global
machines keep what they know while everything local is built anew.
Loading the scene that is already running rebuilds it, which is what
"reset the level" means when the score must survive.

A run starts either from the start scene (a new project field, set from
the asset panel and marked with an arrow in the list) or from whatever
scene is open. The toggle next to Play says which question is asked and
remembers the answer in localStorage: it is a way of working, not part
of the game.

Sounds no longer end because a scene ends. A voice belongs to the
behavior that started it and stops right after On destroy, so the scene
swap is no longer a special case at all. For the enemy that plays its
explosion and destroys itself in the same breath there is now a
detached input on Play sound.

The scene selector stays usable while a run plays, because a double
click in the asset panel already did the same thing unguarded. It moves
what the editor looks at, not what the run plays.

admin 5671a38044 A game that stays silent is only half a game, so a sound is an asset like any other (#45)
game-maker / suite (push) Successful in 12m1s
Sounds follow the road fonts already paved: the file goes to the server
content-addressed under its sha256, the project keeps a named asset that
points at it, and nothing is ever re-encoded. The format is read from the
file's own signature, not from what the browser claims - the same .m4a
arrives as audio/mp4, audio/x-m4a or as nothing at all.

Playing is two nodes. "Play sound" takes the asset and may raise or lower
its volume; every call is its own voice, so two jumps in a row are two
jumps heard. Its loop input is a choice of three - from the asset, on,
off - because a checkbox has to spend one of its two positions on "not
set" and would lose a case: an asset that loops could then never be
played once.

Below the graph core stays browser-free: NodeContext hands out an asset
id, BehaviorSystem resolves it against the project and folds the asset's
own volume and loop into the call, and only viewport/SoundLibrary knows
about Web Audio. A run without a sink plays nothing instead of throwing.

The CI browser is muted, so the ear is no witness: the debug hook counts
started and stopped voices, and step 34 reads that counter.

adminandClaude Opus 5 7babf88636 A state change is something the graph can react to, so the machine announces it (#53, #54, #55, #57)
game-maker / suite (push) Successful in 10m58s
Four issues that all reach for the same line: how the current state is
read and written. Splitting them into four commits would mean four
states of the tree that do not compile, so they arrive together.

#55 start state — the machine asset carries an optional `start` holding
a State node's id. Right-click a state to set or remove it, a ring in
the node's title says which one it is. A dead id (the state was deleted)
reads as "no start", so nothing has to clean up after a deletion.

#53 entered/exited — `On state entered` and `On state exited`, one exec
output per state. Every change now goes through a single `setState`
that reports it; BehaviorSystem delivers it after the exec flow that
caused it, `exited` of the old before `entered` of the new, round after
round until the queue is empty, with a cap that stops a ping-pong graph
with an endless-loop error. A local machine tells the instance that
switched, a global one tells every instance holding a matching event
node. The start state fires `entered` too: per instance for a local
machine, once per run for a global one.

#57 reading — `Current state` with `name` for showing and `id` for
comparing, `Is in state` with one boolean per state. Neither has a
`run`, so `read` learned `def` and `lookup`, and the catalog test knows
this third kind of node.

#54 seeing it — during a run the state machine tab marks every state
some instance is holding faintly, and the one held by the selected
scene object's instance strongly.

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 d1fcfe8b81 A shared value belongs to the run, so a declaration carries its scope (#91)
A variable or a state machine declared `global` keeps one value for the whole
run instead of one per behavior instance. The scope sits on the declaration --
`PropertyDef.scope` and `StateMachineAsset.scope`, both optional, absence
meaning `local` -- and `local` is never written, so every project made before
this saves back unchanged.

**The name is the key.** Two behaviors declaring a global `score` mean one
variable; a behavior declaring `score` locally keeps its own. Kinds that
disagree about one global name stop the run before it starts, with the two
behaviors named; starting values that disagree are a warning on the behavior
that declares it, and the first declaration wins (`globalConflicts`).

The runtime needs no redirection layer. A global variable falls out of
`schemaForObject`, so it never reaches `entity.props` -- and then the whole rule
is "whoever declares the name takes their own value" (`graph/sharedState.ts`).
The `Variables` node is untouched and stays transparent: switching a variable to
global breaks no existing graph, because `GraphInterpreter.readAll` builds a
fresh object per read anyway and only asks `port.key in all`.

That same cut answers the inspector. A shared value has no owner, so the placed
object shows no row for it and can hold no override -- `SetVariableScopeCommand`
takes the deviations that were there and undo gives them back.

Both places say it in words rather than leaving a glyph to be guessed: the
declaration explains the mark below the list, and the placed object names the
variable it no longer holds instead of claiming the behavior declares none --
which is what it said before, untruthfully. Screenshots of the e2e run turned
that up; no check had been looking at it.

`SharedState` hangs off `NodeContext`, is built in `BehaviorSystem.start()` from
the *declarations* rather than from any instance (a global variable exists
before its behavior is placed), and is thrown away with the run: nothing is
written back, not even in the editor run. `GraphInterpreter.call` passes it on
through `...ctx` while nested calls keep getting fresh local variables, which is
why `program.defaults` is stripped of global keys.

Two traps this hit. `defSignature`/`assetSignature` have to carry the scope or
the inspector does not rebuild after the switch -- and a state machine has no
rows at all, so its scope is appended to the signature by hand. And the object
inspector does not go through `schemaForObject` for behaviors, it reads
`asset.variables` directly; filtering in one place was not enough, and no unit
test covered that path. The e2e caught it (`global: true` where false belonged),
and the rule now lives in one named function, `objectRows`.

Scopes `object` and `scene` are deliberately not built. The object case already
has a route (`Object by name` -> `Properties`), and a run knows exactly one
scene, so `scene` would be indistinguishable from `global` until #39 exists.

Closes #59: a machine's scope is a word on the machine asset, not a setting per
`Set state` node, so the same machine cannot live in two places at once.

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.

game-maker / suite (push) Successful in 9m5s
Four new rows on sprite, text, collider and container (block TRANSFORM):
scale, rotation in degrees clockwise, mirrorX, mirrorY. As properties they
get override/reset/apply, loading of old projects, write-back after play and
the Properties node for free; camera and behavior have none.

The hierarchy composes T*R*S per level (composeAlongChain replaces
sumAlongChain), so children rotate and scale with their parent. Reparenting
and grouping keep the look (carriedTransform). Drawing goes through
placeNode, the gizmo is a polygon, cull and objectRect use the AABB, drags
are computed in the parent's system.

Colliders are oriented boxes: SAT for box/box, box-circle in the box frame;
exitDistance replaces axisSeparation/axisCorrection, moveAndSlide moves along
the object's own axes.

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 1135bf4562 Play sprite animations from an animation asset worn through texture
An animation asset is a list of pictures (whole textures or frames) with
frames per second and Loop/Once/Ping-pong playback. A sprite wears it
through its texture property, so the picker, instance overrides and the
Properties node work unchanged; there is no dedicated play node.

A different animation starts from its first frame, the same one set again
runs on, so a graph may choose Run or Idle every frame. The clock lives on
the entity, not in props, which the world writes back as overrides. The
AnimationSystem ticks before behaviors, and On animation finished fires
once when a Once animation reaches its end.

The Animation tab plays a preview above a frame strip: reorder by dragging,
Delete, duplicate, + Frames, pause/resume, and wheel zoom about the pointer
with pan and Fit. Scene and Container tabs show the first frame; edit mode
has no clock. Right-clicking a texture creates an animation from its frames.

Button now measures its label with the bold font it draws in, which cut
the Animation tab and red dialog buttons short.

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.

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.

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.

An object on a data edge used to mean a live entity, so asEntity would have
taken a struct for one and asString would have read .name off it. EntityHandle
now carries a symbol brand – a symbol so no field name can impersonate it, and
it never serializes, which suits a thing that exists only while the game runs.
It is built in exactly one place.

String(value) would have written a struct as [object Object] at 39 call sites.
They go through textOf(), which is identical for primitives.

normalizeGraph dropped everything but primitives from node params, so the List
node lost its value on every save ([3,1,4] round-tripped to undefined).
Variables were spared: they have a schema, params have none.

rootandClaude Opus 5 ead649eec3 Resolve container content from the template instead of copying it
A scene now stores only the container object; its content is resolved from
the template on every read, with deviations kept as sparse instanceEdits on
the container object. This drops the propagation bookkeeping entirely --
templateSync.ts is gone and the three structural gaps (add, remove, reparent)
cannot diverge any more.

Values stay editable on an instance, structure does not; Unpack writes the
content into the scene, keeping ids. Play mode bakes containers into the
throwaway copy before entities are built. No migration: formatVersion is 2
and the seeders write the new format.

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.

rootandClaude Fable 5.1 1eb28314cf Refactoring: one file per node, consistent comments, shared helpers, split large modules
- Graph: nodes.ts split into nodes/<category>/<Type>.ts (62 files) with
  shared.ts factories and index.ts registry; NodeContext/values/NodeRegistry
  separated, writeTyped() replaces duplicated typed writes
- Comments: one style (JSDoc on non-obvious exports, // for decisions and
  traps), wrong/stale comments fixed or removed, ids.ts now real 10 base-36 chars
- Core: chainOf, shared worldPosition/editorPosition core, commands/require.ts,
  commands/naming.ts, util/list.ts, setBagValue/toPosition/propDef; dead code
  removed (isBehaviorAsset, SCENE_OBJECT_SCHEMA, CommandStack.subscribe,
  Input.axis, setMode, titleText, World.worldPosition, unused ctor params)
- Editor: Inspector split into inspector/ sections, App.ts into Editor.ts +
  debugHook.ts + shortcuts.ts, Viewport into items.ts + symbols.ts, shared
  "Add collider" action, unified type labels/swatches
- UI toolkit: Widget.trackHover/onPointerRelease, drawControlBox, math helpers,
  Popup.openBelow, Menu/Dialog/ColorPicker/ListRow in own files, named Theme sizes
- Tools: seed-demo/smoke-demo and demo-check project removed, tools/lib
  (harness, projects, builders), e2e.mjs as runner over tools/e2e/*.mjs sections
- Tests: tests/helpers.ts replaces copied fixtures and NodeContext doubles
