The suite spent 88% of its step time asleep: 564 s of steps, 496 s of
them in sleep(n) - fixed spans estimated by hand and then copied from
step to step. That is why it was slow, and why it flickered.
The signal is afterFrames(count, timeout) in ui/render.ts, exposed as
__gm.afterFrames(). It wakes the loop itself, because an editor that
draws nothing would never redeem a promise of a frame, and it gives up
after a timeout instead of hanging the run. settle() in the harness
waits two drawn frames (~32 ms) instead of 150-300 ms and falls back to
sleep(150) when the hook is missing (an old build): silently not
waiting would make every later check a coin toss.
Every action goes through it now - click, doubleClick, wheel, drag,
dragAsset, press, typeText, select, mutate, undo, redo - and with that
about 550 sleep() calls behind those actions became redundant, helpers
that are nothing but a mutate in a coat included. What a frame cannot
answer got its own condition instead: waitUntil(expr), play()/stop()
waiting on __gm.state.mode rather than on 300 ms, saved() for the
autosave (the two hand-written polling loops sampled at 300 ms for
something that arrives after a second), and showTab() as a real tool -
47 places called evaluate("__gm.showTab(...)") raw, and 24 of them
waited for nothing at all and read the old panel.
564 s -> 243 s of step time, the waiting share 88% -> 76%. Three kinds
of wait were kept, and each one bit when it was taken away: loading
bytes (textures, fonts), game time that a repaint cannot stand in for
(time scale, shader and particle clocks, the live values a running
graph carries), and the inertia the scroll step measures on purpose.
Two things the new speed uncovered, both real: 25-animation read the
frame menu unfiltered and had frozen an incomplete list (the CI failure
on c990dbc), and 33-render-on-change measured idleness while the
autosave of the step before was still painting - it waits for
saveStatus to leave dirty/saving now, so it measures that nothing
happens any more instead of that it waited long enough.
CI run 35 was red: the suite died after step 15 with `widget with text
"Container" not found`. Nothing in the editor broke — the tenth tab (#73) pushed
Container behind the `»` button at the test window's 1280 px, exactly the case
#84 was built for, and three steps still clicked the tab name directly.
openTab(t, tab) in tools/e2e/lib/scaffold.mjs asks tabRow() whether the tab is
hidden and goes through the menu when it is, so the fix lives in one place rather
than in every step that opens a tab. The LABELS record moves there as TAB_LABELS,
since both the helper and 14-overflow need it.

- `.gitignore` said `index.html` unanchored, which also caught the Vite source page;
a fresh clone could neither `dev` nor `build`. Anchored to `/index.html`, page added.
- Removed GM_REMOTE (tools/remote/gm-browser.ps1 and the ssh/scp branch in browser.mjs):
the Windows test machine is gone and the only flaky check that lived on it is closed (#37).
- Removed `npm run preview`, undocumented and unused.
- Comments: wrong number in collider.test.ts (250 → 200), the "declarations used to…"
history in listItems.ts and friends, the 24 px/28 contradiction, section banners in
nodes/index.ts, node-catalog.test.ts and api/index.php, name paraphrases, and the stale
step numbers in tools/e2e/11-…23- from the old global count.
- README: asset types include `animation`, kind order Number/Text/Boolean, tagged colour
and texture items, 6/5 kinds, the `Texture` node, `./build.sh`, PROJECT_FORMAT_VERSION,
and the file tree (kinds.ts, listItems.ts, propertyPorts.ts, Breadcrumb.ts, beads.ts,
tools/assets/).
- tests/helpers.ts takes the duplicated `findObject` and `sceneWithCamera`.
Proof: ./check.sh 797 tests, full e2e ALL PASSED 633 checks against this bundle.

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, ...).

The context menu entry is gone; dragging replaces it entirely. The drop
target is the view under the pointer, not the active tab, so the same
gesture works for scenes and for container templates.
While dragging, an outline shows the footprint the object will have plus
a crosshair on its origin, turning red when the drop would be refused.
Preview and command share one function (placementRejection), so the
outline cannot promise something the drop then rejects.
A left-press used to select the list row immediately. Since the container
tab follows the selection, it switched to the very container being dragged
and every drop would have nested it inside itself. The list now selects on
release without a drag: picking something up is not the same as choosing 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.

The Container tab reuses SceneViewport against any object holder, so a
container template is edited exactly like a scene. Right-click no longer
changes the selection, which previously made nesting impossible: opening
the menu on a container loaded it, and "Place in container" then targeted
itself.
Template edits (move, rename, override) now reach already-placed instances
per slot, through a shared templateSync used by both the apply path and the
plain object commands. Copies the user has touched keep their own value.
