Speed and Prewarm are not state and not a second loop: both are arithmetic
on the clock argument the field already passes to every particle formula.
fieldTime = elapsed * timeScale + prewarmOffset, a pure rule next to
liveRange, called at the one place ParticleField.sync forms its time, so
preview and world inherit it together.
Prewarm offsets by one lifetime because that is the smallest offset which
fills a continuous emitter; a burst is dead at time >= lifetime, so the
same offset would skip it entirely and it is suppressed there.
The tab's slider counts wall-clock seconds, so its span divides by the
scale. A missing row falls back to 1 / off, so old project files need no
migration.

The asset type `particles` is placeable and carries a graph at the same time —
`behavior` was the blueprint. Because a continuous emitter gives birth to particle n
at time n/rate, the whole field is a function of the clock rather than of the frames:
no ring-buffer bookkeeping, exact time jumps, reproducibility as a measurable property.
compile.ts follows compileShader's frame but emits JS closures into a Float64Array
instead of GLSL, and without eval; a node with two consumers is evaluated once.
Drawing is one Pixi ParticleContainer per source, so one draw call.
Collision, wind and braking in flight are out for good — that is the price of the
formula model, not an omission.
The tab count goes from nine to ten, which is exactly the case #84 was built for one
day earlier: at 1280 px the row no longer holds every tab, so guard 14b now asks for
hidden.length > 0 instead of === 0.
Nine tabs need 631 px; at 1280x800 the centre column offers 666 px, so the tenth
tab would have spilled under the inspector - the same overflow CI caught in run 5.
TabStrip replaces the bare HStack: it fits the longest prefix that stays inside
the budget, always appends the active tab, and offers the rest behind a fixed
28 px button. The button's width is fixed on purpose - deriving it from the
number of hidden tabs would make width depend on the count and the count on the
width.
The rule itself is a pure function (tabRow.ts), so it is checked without a
browser. setActive() calls relayout() itself because Widget.resize only lays out
on a changed size, and switching tabs does not change any size.
Adding a tab now needs no space arithmetic - only a line in TAB_ORDER,
TAB_LABELS and panes, all three Record<CentreTab, ...>, so forgetting one is a
type error.

The default of the Edge param and the address mode the shared sheet physically
carries were the same constant; changing the value would have turned every
sentinel with it and given each shader sprite a full copy of its texture.
SHEET_EDGE ('mirror', what TextureLibrary uploads) is now separate from
DEFAULT_EDGE ('clamp'). A graph whose Sample reads nothing but its own pixel
draws with the plain sheet whatever the Edge says, so the common shader costs
no second copy.
Without a shader the quad's coordinates never leave 0..1, and mirror-repeat
reads like clamp within a texel - so clamp is what a sprite shows anyway.
An upload sends its file name next to the raw bytes, and the server keeps
it in a sidecar next to the content-addressed file. Both pickers caption
every tile and row with it, and an asset made there is named after the
file instead of "Texture" / "Font". Last upload of the same content wins.
The API's own set_error_handler ignores error_reporting(), so @-silenced
warnings still throw: a missing sidecar took the whole listing down with a
500. Existence is checked instead of suppressed.

A font asset holds a file and nothing else, the twin of a texture: the server keeps it
content-addressed under data/fonts/{sha256}.{ext}, with the format read from the file's own
four-byte signature (finfo reports fonts inconsistently across libmagic versions). A text
wears one through its ordinary Font property, so overrides, reset, undo and the Properties
node come for free; no font means the editor's own typeface.
The picker lists everything the server holds and renders each row in the face it offers.
The family name is gm-font-<hash16>, never the name inside the file, so two "Regular" cannot
collide. WorldViewport.syncText is the single place that draws it, which covers scene, game
preview and play at once.

shaderFingerprint(graph) covers node id/type/params/ports and edge endpoints only;
x/y, collapsed, folded and edge ids stay out. ShaderLibrary keys on it and counts
compiles (__gm.shaderCompiles()). Measured before: one compile per preview step of a
node drag (12 for a harness drag); after: 0, a param change exactly +1.

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.

Fragment-side coordinate nodes instead of vertex nodes: the quad stays the
quad, a UV read plus a sample at a computed coordinate covers flip, scroll,
wave, pixelate and scanlines. Time is a uniform only when a Time node reaches
the Output; a viewport that drew a Time shader redraws from the ticker so the
Scene tab animates without a running world. Edge (Mirror/Repeat/Clamp) is a
second texture variant in TextureLibrary because WebGL binds no TextureStyle
resource of the shader. The compiler now emits #version 300 es first: Pixi
only compiles as ES 3.00 when the fragment says so, and textureSize needs it.

A sprite's picture is now a Mesh (unit quad, sibling of its Graphics node, which keeps
only the hit area); a worn shader replaces Pixi's fragment in that draw, so there is no
intermediate texture and no extra render pass. Measured on the HD 630: 400 shaded
sprites hold 60 fps (was 34), 800 hold 56 (was 20).
Two Pixi facts the code leans on: a mesh's texture is bound only for Pixi's own shader,
so GraphShader.wear hands it over; and MeshPipe caches whether a mesh batches and
re-checks it only in a frame without structure changes, so switching a shader on or
off calls mesh.unload().
The console panel mirrors console.group/groupCollapsed/groupEnd and fills the %s %d
%o %c directives, so Pixi's deprecation warning shows its head, not only its stack.
E2E 12 guards against the addChild-on-Graphics warning, 28 counts shaders instead of
filters.

The + Property menu of the Properties node offered every shader's params
for every sprite. Each shader row now carries its shader name, and a name
shared by two shaders lists both: "brightness (Adjust colors, Neon glow)".
Sprite-owned rows stay unlabelled.
The note hangs off a map keyed by the def object, not by the name -- a
sprite property and a shader param may share a name (#63), and keying by
name would label the wrong row.

A frame drawn straight from the sheet showed a hairline of the neighbouring
cell along any edge that fell inside a screen pixel: with antialias on, a
partly covered pixel is still evaluated at its centre, past the edge. On top
of that Pixi rewrites a Graphics fill texture from clamp-to-edge to repeat at
draw time (generateTextureFillMatrix.mjs), so the top row of a sheet read its
bottom row.
TextureLibrary.get(ref) now cuts the rectangle out of the loaded sheet with an
OffscreenCanvas on first use and uploads the cut (key file|x,y,w,h, kept for
the session). Address mode is mirror-repeat: Pixi only rewrites clamp-to-edge,
and within a texel of the border mirror behaves like clamp, for linear as well
as nearest. Loaded sheets get it too, since whole pictures wrapped at their own
borders the same way. viewport/textureFill.ts and its test are gone.

No input, one Value param (step 0.05, drawn on the node), output `value`
as a float literal via floatLiteral (2 -> 2.0, NaN -> 0.0). No uniform,
no sprite row - that is the difference to Property.
The e2e negative check for "no behavior node in the palette" now uses
Boolean as its marker, and step 28 types the palette search first
because the palette scrolls from twelve entries on.

One rule for every asset type: a click on an asset row selects it, a
double-click (or Enter, or creating it via +) opens its tab. Selection
alone still switches tabs only for nodes, frames and template objects.
- state.openAsset(id) = select + 'open' event; the editor maps the asset
type to its tab via TAB_OF_ASSET. The two special clauses for state
machine and shader assets in the selection handler are gone.
- Creating via + and importing a texture from the picker open the tab;
paste/drop of an image only selects.
- 3 unit tests (event order, re-open of a selected asset, selection never
fires open), 14 e2e checks in step 4.

Output gains a number input `alpha`; unconnected it reads the texel's
alpha, like `color` reads the texel. The epilogue premultiplies with the
resolved alpha. New `Texture alpha` node exposes texel.a for maths.
PortDef.inline=false keeps the alpha port without an inline field: every
number port is inline by default, and a typed default of 0 would have made
every shaded sprite invisible. The compiler's texel fallback is typed:
colour ports get rgb, number ports get texel.a.

The shipped shader graph gains a `brightness - 1` offset node, so 1 stays
neutral and brightness lifts every channel by the same amount; contrast keeps
multiplying, saturation keeps mixing with the luma. Fixture, seeds, unit and
e2e expectations follow (twelve nodes, 1.25 -> #80c0ff).

A shader is an asset carrying a node graph (Texture color, Output, Property,
Color, Add/Subtract/Multiply/Divide, Mix, Luminance) that compiles to the GLSL
fragment of a Pixi filter. The Shader tab reuses the Behavior canvas; a sprite
wears a shader through its Shader picker, and the rows below it are the
graph's Property nodes. Property schema, resolution and deviation take the
project because a sprite's rows now live in another asset. The built-in
registry of the prototype is gone; "Adjust colors" ships as a graph in the
fixture and the three example games.

Order per instance: On start -> On enable -> On update ... -> On disable
-> On destroy. On enable fires right after On start and whenever the
behavior comes back on (itself and its parents); On disable in the frame
it goes off, the instance stays frozen. On destroy fires when the entity
leaves the world (Destroy node, child of a destroyed object) and when the
world is torn down on stop/restart, preceded by On disable if still on.
A new On start node added while playing still does not fire for a
running instance (kept as is, documented in the wiki).

A log layer (src/editor/console/log.ts) keeps a 500-line ring buffer and
wraps console.log/info/debug/warn/error, still calling the original. Notices
and behaviour runtime errors go straight to the layer instead of through
console, so editor tests stay quiet and errors can render red. world.log is
untouched: it is per-run structured state that runtime tests and e2e read
directly, not a text stream.
The panel sits under the visible tab, resizable with Splitter('y'), with a
CONSOLE header and a clear button. Each line carries its wall-clock time in
its own dimmed column, so locate() still finds the message text.
The taller centre area drops the graph fit zoom to 0.60, which broke six e2e
checks that assumed one screen pixel is one graph unit and that a fixed
offset from the canvas centre is empty. They now ask __gm.emptySpot(),
__gm.graph.emptySpot() and __gm.graph.zoom() instead of guessing.
locate/locateAll added the unscaled Pixi text width to the global position,
so click points in the scaled graph canvas landed too far right; they use
getBounds() now.

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.

- `.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

A kind like colour or texture used to be spelled out in five parallel
lists, its port type, its empty value, its glyph, its label and its list
tag - 22 literal places for texture alone. core/properties/kinds.ts now
holds one row per kind and the rest is derived from it, so adding a kind
is one row. The five literal nodes collapse into literals.ts, the six
kind menus into one helper.
Number, Text, Boolean is now the one order everywhere; the variable and
port menus used to list Boolean before Text.

- `Texture` and `Color` can be picked as a variable kind, a struct field
kind and a declared port kind; a new `Texture` node hands a picture id
into the graph. Declared, a texture is its bare id – the `$texture` tag
stays a list-only thing.
- The `String` node is labelled "Text" like its kind; the type id stays.
- Whole-number inputs (`Item at`, `Set item`, `Sub list`, `Fill`,
`Repeat`, `Substring`, `To text`) show no decimals (`int()` in shared.ts).
- All server projects are reseeded, so `legacyNodes.ts`,
`migrateDeclaredLists` and the `ownerId` fallback go, with their tests.
- Note `reseed-because-of-list` moved to done/; new note `refactor-types`.

A list no longer says what its items are. ListDef.items, ListDef.fields,
ListFieldDef.items and SetListItemsCommand are gone; the single seam is
src/core/properties/listItems.ts. JSON already tells number, text, boolean
and struct apart, so only two kinds need a tag: {"$color": n} and the new
{"$texture": id}. Field names cannot start with "$", so a tag never
collides with a struct field. On a data link a texture item arrives as
its bare id; the graph has no images.
List tab: the mark in front of each row is the kind picker, "+ Item"
asks for the kind, both are ordinary value edits (one undo step). A list
inside a struct field only offers the flat kinds because the depth rule
forbids a struct item there (ListAccess.kinds); the menu used to offer
it and silently do nothing.
Legacy lists that declared items: 'color' are tagged on load.
Actor demo: the four walk animations and four standing frames live in
two list variables of texture items indexed by facing (Item at), so the
graph can be rebuilt in the editor. The stand frames get their grid ids
back; 44 nodes instead of 46.

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.

The graph was only locked by five edit-mode guards in GraphCanvas. The
running game reads the graph by reference each frame, so a new node, edge,
changed value, disconnect or undo takes effect from the next frame. Stop
discards these edits like everything else changed in play. A new On start
node does not fire for a behavior that has already started.
During play every data output shows the value it last produced, in the
highlight colour and refreshed ten times a second. Values are kept per
graph, because node ids are only unique within one; with several
instances the most recent value wins. The Variables node reads the live
variable bag, so only its own outputs are kept, as a snapshot.
Each time an exec edge fires, a bead runs along it in 0.3 s, at most one
every 0.15 s per edge, following the same curve the edge is drawn with.
Beads run on game time and freeze while paused; the game logic is
unchanged.

A reference search over every export and method in src/ found code that
only tests still called, or that was never called at all:
- RemoveSceneObjectCommand: the product only removes through the
multi-object command; the tests now use that one too.
- NodeRegistry.requireNodeDef: a second function of the same name in
commands/require.ts raises a CommandError instead of throwing, and is
the one the product uses. The twin invited the wrong import.
- isTextureAsset, listContainers, AssetTabEditor.show,
FocusManager.destroy, KeyboardBridge.selectAll and the getters
ColorField.value, ListView.selected, NumberField.number.
Also: Theme.controlActive now matches the resting control colour, and a

Collapsed, the node reads "Set 2 variables", "Get width" or "No properties";
expanded it is always "Variables" / "Properties". The Properties node shows
its object type (and behavior) as a line under the title instead.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
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.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
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.

Get/Set variable nodes now title themselves "Get <name>" / "Set <name>", and
the new Variable node just "<name>"; the title is the same folded or open,
and a collapsed node shrinks to it. The redundant "Variable: <name>" row is
gone unless the variable was deleted ("<name>?" is the only hint then).
The Variable node sets its value when an exec flow arrives and exposes the
value at any time. Its output is read when a downstream node pulls it, not
frozen at the write, so count = count + 1 is one Variable node plus an Add.
Get variable keeps reading once per pulse: switching it would change the
behaviour of existing games.

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 sprite takes the whole image at its pixel size and the texture's name,
numbered like any other clash. CreateAssetCommand now accepts starting
properties; they go through the schema in execute, so an unknown key or a
bad value is refused before the project is touched, and one undo removes
the asset.

A chevron in front of the title toggles it without touching the selection,
and right-click offers Collapse node / Expand node for the whole selection
as one undo step. A collapsed node draws its title bar alone; every link of
one side meets at a single point on it, and hidden links there share one
mark per side, since per-port marks would stack on the same pixels. It has
no ports to grab, so a link dropped on it connects nothing.
Like hiding a link this is drawing only: collapsed is saved on the node and
an expanded node leaves no trace in the project file.

buildStructBlock only covered structs, so a placed instance drew numbers,
text, bools and lists through createFieldRow on a 64 px name column while
its struct block sat on the asset's grid below it. variableRows.ts now
builds the row for every variable kind on both sides; the edit option
decides what the owner may change (asset: rename, x, item kind; instance:
revert and push). Label and Button take a fixed width so the mark column
no longer shifts names when a list shows its item-kind picker.
The two structFields calls that became dead with 9f48257 are gone. The
e2e steps locate the Enabled toggle through __gm.inspectorField instead
of clicking a fixed offset from its label.

The instance inspector drew its own, flatter version of a struct: one row per
field, no bundle head. It now draws the same block as the asset side, because
there is only one implementation left - both call buildStructBlock. What the
instance does not get is everything that touches the shape: renaming a field,
'+ Field', and the per-field '×'. The shape belongs to the asset; a placed
object overrides values. The revert and override marks sit on the head rather
than on a field, since an override covers the whole bundle at once.
Underneath this, editing a single field of an unoverridden struct used to blank
its siblings: structFieldsOf filled the untouched fields from spec.read, which
is object.overrides[key] and therefore undefined until something is overridden.
structOf then handed back the empty shape. PreviewedValue carries 'current' now
- the resolved value the row actually shows - and the fields come from that.
Without it the old path stays, which is right for the asset side, whose prop
bag is dense.
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.
Ein Toggle in der Graph-Kopfzeile lässt gezogene Nodes auf dem 24er-Raster
einrasten – derselben Größe, die den Hintergrund zeichnet. Einschalten bewegt
nichts; die Regel greift erst beim nächsten Zug. Bei Mehrfachauswahl richtet
sich jeder Node für sich aus, statt einem gemeinsamen Versatz zu folgen, der
die alten krummen Abstände mitschleppen würde.
Die Entscheidung liegt als reine Funktion in framing.ts, wo die übrige
Graph-Geometrie schon wohnt, und ist dort wie im Browser gepinnt.
An unconnected list input is a button into the List tab instead of a number
field; a struct field can hold a list, so ListSlot carries an optional field
name and the three owner cases only say what sits at a key; and a list
variable picks its item kind in the inspector (marker doubles as the chooser),
so a list of structs no longer has to be born from a project file.
The declaration keeps the storable shapes finite: a struct field may be a list,
but that list holds primitives only, so list->struct->primitive and
struct->list->primitive are the two deepest forms.

Next move held four clusters of Set variable in a row, fourteen single nodes
in all; clear-lines read three variables one after the other. They are now
one plural node each, which takes Next move 40 -> 30 nodes and clear-lines
25 -> 23. Every remaining single node was checked and really is single: ok/no
are the same variable in opposite branches, take/keep the same one across a
write, and the three key setters hang on three different events.
Two contracts carry those merges, both pinned as tests. Set variables writes
per port with writeTyped exactly as the singular node does, so a Pack{rot}
still merges instead of overwriting - without it, turning would have erased
the other three fields. And the interpreter collects every input before the
node runs, so no input may come from a variable the same node writes; a data
node is evaluated once per pulse and keeps its answer. That second rule is
invisible in the game, because OnUpdate re-reads each frame and heals it, so
it lives in a unit test rather than in the smoke.
/opt/node22 and /opt/npm are gone from the tree. build.sh ran into the empty
path once they were moved away; the other seven mentions were documentation.
e2e.sh and check.sh replace the bare npm calls. A long run does not survive
the end of its shell - four full e2e runs died mid-suite with oom_kill 0 -
so e2e.sh start hands the run to a transient game-maker-e2e.service, which
does. e2e.sh status reports the running job or the last result, and calls a
log without a closing line ABORTED rather than reporting the passes it got
to. Both scripts end on an explicit exit line, because set -o pipefail inside
a script does not protect the caller: measured, ./check.sh | tail still
reports 0. Logs carry a timestamp and land in logs/, which is ignored.

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.

The value type was already there: StructValue, textOf, sameValue,
writeTyped/mergeStruct and the struct port type came with the first
part, and Get/Set variable carry any-ports, so a bundle already flowed
through the graph unchanged. What was missing was the declaration.
PropertyDef gains kind 'struct' with a list of fields, VARIABLE_KINDS a
fifth kind, variableDef a fifth parameter. A declared field is a
primitive - a list field would need a nested editor and therefore the
path in the slot address, the same step "a list of structs" is waiting
for. coerceValue now returns PropertyValue rather than FieldValue, the
first value type that is not a field; none of its five callers break.
In the inspector a struct variable is a block, not a tab. The list tab
exists because hundreds of rows fit in no inspector row; a struct is the
opposite case - few fields that fit under each other. It is the port
editor Pack already has, one level down and with a value column: type,
key and default value in one place. A placed object sees the same fields
as plain value rows: overriding yes, declaring no.
Adding or removing a field touches the declaration, the default, the
behavior's value and every instance override in one command, so a stored
value can never keep a shape its declaration no longer promises. The row
handlers read the bundle at the moment of the change rather than closing
over a snapshot - a field writes the whole bundle, so with a snapshot
the second edited row revives the first one's old value. defSignature
carries the fields, otherwise a new row appears only at the next
rebuild.
Fixes a fixture fault this uncovered: step 10 pushed its text object
into the scene without instanceEdits, which overrideSites walks with
Object.entries. AddStructFieldCommand is the first caller to reach it
from that state; the step was green alone and failed three checks in the
full suite.
Moves the dynamic-ports note to done - all three of its parts are built.

A short list opened after a long one drew all its rows stacked on one
point. The fault was not in the list tab: rebuild() handed the row stack
to setContent() while it was still empty, so the content was sized to
max(rows, viewport) = the viewport. The rows arrived after that, and for
a short list the same formula yields the same height, so resize() saw no
change and skipped layout(). A long list changes the height and never
showed it.
relayoutContent() now runs whenever the content changed, rather than
leaning on resize()'s change detection - that detection is the wrong
instrument for "the children moved".
The list tab was the only affected caller: the panels use ListView,
which positions its rows itself, and the inspector fills its body
before setContent.
Also drops the comma line under the list. Every section that can carry a
list supplies openList, so the comma fallback in fieldFactory was
unreachable; listToText/listFromText go with it. The list-value test now
covers coerceListItem through coerceValue instead, so the boolean
spelling stays guarded.

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.

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.
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.
PropertyValue was number | string | boolean | list. A struct joins it, which
costs two things the typechecker found rather than I did.
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.
