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, ...).

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.
objectSection.ts had grown to 559 lines around three separable parts: the
queries, the vector rows and the parent row. Four object commands repeated the
same capture/restore preamble – applyCommands stays out, its five carry extra
undo state whose restore order matters.
58 dashed banner comments are gone. The nine labels in nodes/index.ts stay:
they are the only structure a flat 90-entry array has.

Pause is a sub-state of play, not a third mode: the toolbar button and
Ctrl+Enter stop ticking the world, the clock included. A held frame still
drops the input edges, so resuming does not fire a pause worth of keys in
one go.
The editor run missed the case it is most wanted for. hasEditorRun only
looked at the stored scene objects, so a behavior inside a placed
container never started one; the world now builds from resolveObjects and
writes back through objectRef, keeping the move as an instance edit
instead of baking the instance out.
Keys and clicks go to the run while the Game tab is on screen, where no
key means anything to the editor, and are handed back on leaving it -
held keys released, so nothing keeps walking unpressed.
A behavior object carries a "Run in editor" switch next to Enabled. When
it is on, the behavior ticks outside of Play and works on the saved model
directly - Unity semantics: what it moves is a real change, autosaved and
not undoable.
Input stays with the editor, so On key never fires while typing. The
editor run never bakes placed containers into the model, since that would
silently drop their instanceEdits.
syncToModel reports whether it wrote anything, and the dirty flag is only
raised on change - otherwise a behavior moving something every frame
would trigger ~60 saves a second.
The game view took whatever camera came first in the scene, ignoring the
switch, so `enabled = false` on a camera did nothing and a second camera
never got its turn. `World.activeCamera()` now decides: of the cameras
switched on – the whole parent chain counted, as for any object – the
first in hierarchy order, and none on renders nothing at all. It is asked
per frame, so a graph switching cameras hands the view over immediately.

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.

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.

Engine additions that the example game needed:
- `enabled` as a shared property of every placeable asset (default on, an
override on the scene object). A switched-off object is not drawn, does not
collide and its behavior does not run - and neither does anything parented
below it. Disabled objects are now hidden in the scene view as well, so the
editor shows what the game shows; they stay in the hierarchy panel, which is
where they are selected and switched back on.
- Asset type `text` (text, fontSize, color, align), rendered in scene and game.
- Pointer input in the game view: `On click`, `Mouse position`, `Mouse button`,
`Is hovered`, hit-tested against colliders, else sprite/text footprints.
- New nodes: Set/Is enabled, Set text, Is asset, Name of, Equals, To text,
Join text, Floor/Ceil/Round, Modulo, Random, Time, Restart game.
Tooling: shared CDP harness (tools/harness.mjs), central project registry with
a guard that keeps destructive scripts off the playground (tools/projects.mjs),
plus smoke suites for the demo scene and the jump-and-run game.

- Position is now { x, y, z }; higher z draws on top, ties keep hierarchy order
- Viewport sorts the objects layer deterministically (syncDrawOrder)
- Inspector shows a Z field; asset properties that differ from the schema
default are marked bold with a reset button (ResetAssetPropertyCommand)
- isModified() helper, unit tests, E2E checks and seed updated
