tools/seed-actor.mjs builds the project Actor demo: it uploads
tools/assets/Actor1.png, slices the 576x384 sheet into the 96 cells of a
12x8 grid (48x48 each, no remainder) and wears the character in the top
left corner. Walking is four ping-pong animations of three frames, which
is the original RPG-Maker walk cycle; standing is the middle frame of the
row, not an animation.
The graph pastes walk- or idle- in front of the direction faced and wears
the result, so eight cases need no branch tree - the List node only holds
numbers. Which way it looks is the key pressed last, corrected whenever
only one axis is still held, or letting go of one key of a diagonal would
walk backwards. Axis input already normalizes its vector.
tools/lib/projects.mjs gains uploadTexture, since data/textures/ is
git-ignored and a seed that ships its picture has to send it. The harness
gains w/a/s/d and keyDown/keyUp halves, because holdKey cannot express two
presses that overlap - which is what a diagonal is.
tools/smoke-actor.mjs plays it in 19 checks and reads the drawn pixels at
the camera edge, where the bounds hold him walking on the spot: three
distinct frames walking, one standing.

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.

Eleven notes collected from the README's "Not yet" section, known
limits found in recent rounds, and open technical points: sprite
animation, graph comments/groups, a load-scene node, sound, nine-slice,
template changes reaching placed instances, exact matches in the
palette, On start added during play, render-on-change, gzip in nginx
and the flaky pixel-art filtering test.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Splitting the bundle would only silence Vite's 500 kB warning. The real
saving is transport compression: nginx serves the 590 kB bundle without
gzip (184 kB compressed), and that setting lives in the shared web-stack
config, not in this repo.

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
new note asks what editing the graph during play would take.

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.

Adding a collider now lives only in the Scene objects context menu, deleting a node on
the Delete key and the node context menu. The e2e checks that pinned the inspector button

content and on a placed container without raising a notice.

Measured click-to-paint was 72-77 ms, of which the editor itself spends
under 4 ms; the rest is the finished frame waiting in the compositor
queue. A desynchronized context bypasses it (16-18 ms in the same probe).
Pixi has no option for it, so main.ts builds the WebGL2 context itself.
The mode may tear on some drivers; ?vsync falls back to Pixi's own
context.
__gm.lowLatency() reports the attributes the browser actually granted,
and a graph-step check pins that the mode stays on.

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 ausgeschaltetes Objekt zeichnet nichts, verschwand bisher aber auch aus

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 dynamic-port note went to done/ while its tail still listed three things nobody
built: a list of structs, a struct field of kind list, and the unconnected list input.
Measured while extracting: inlineInputDef sends list, struct AND object into its number
branch, so the last item is wider than the note claimed.

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.

A rebuild destroys the widget being typed in, and a typed value can change the
very structure that decides whether a rebuild is needed -- a field that says
how many ports a node has. That made such a field unusable: every keystroke
previewed, the preview emitted 'project', refreshValues() saw the signature
change and threw the row away. Dragging the value worked only because a drag
keeps receiving globalpointermove on the destroyed widget.
So refreshValues() now postpones a due rebuild while the focus sits inside the
inspector, and runs it as soon as the field is left. Values are safe in the
meantime: TextField.setValue ignores an edit in progress.
Two handles for that in the toolkit. FocusManager.isWithin(node) also replaces
the parent chain refreshLive() walked by hand, and changeHandlers lets a panel
notice that the focus has gone -- there was no signal for that before.
Nothing in the editor can trigger this today, since the Sequence setting that
did is gone. It is the ground for the List tab, where a row that adds or
deletes an item changes the structure while you type. The e2e check therefore
builds the case out of real parts: type into a field, set the object's parent
from outside -- the parent is part of the structure signature -- and confirm
the input survives and the rebuild follows on Escape.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
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.
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.

src/viewport/ held three classes only src/editor/ ever used, and framing.ts sat
under graph/ although the scene view wants the same bounds sum. The graph, the
texture and the container tab repeated the same header, subscription and
disposal code with two silent divergences: the graph tab said "nothing shown"
with null instead of '', and the texture tab refell back to the first asset on
a selection change but not on a project event.
These arrive together because GraphCanvas ties them: it reads framing from its
new home, hands its fold marks to folding.ts, and its '' change is what
GraphEditor must agree with.

GM_STEPS=20, 1-12 or 6,20 takes a subset of the suite, which is seconds
instead of two minutes while one step is being written. Steps live off
what the earlier ones leave behind, so a subset that skips a prerequisite
fails on purpose. The filter had been written as a throwaway script three
times; it belongs in the runner.
The README stops calling a remote browser the way this suite is meant to
be run: with the GPU in use a local run costs ~124 s and about 0.8 of the
four cores here, so GM_REMOTE is a convenience, not a requirement.
The two On key down fields read in milliseconds now, and say so in their
labels. A number field shows three decimals unless a property asks for
fewer, so both params set decimals: 0 – the field reads 300, not 300.000,
and rounds to whole milliseconds while typing or scrubbing. The clock
behind it still counts seconds; the conversion sits at the one place that
reads the properties.
A held key fired once and then nothing, so sliding a Tetris piece sideways or
walking a menu meant building a timer next to every key node. Two settings on
the node do it now: Repeat after and Repeat interval, both in milliseconds so
the usual values stay whole numbers (300, 50) instead of 0.3 and 0.05. A delay
of 0 keeps the node exactly as it was, an interval of 0 means every frame.
The browser's own auto-repeat is deliberately not used - Input.press has always
dropped it - because its delay and rate are an operating-system setting of the
player's, not a game's. The repeat is built from the measured hold time instead,
per node, so two nodes on one key keep their own clocks. The rule itself is a
pure function in keyRepeat.ts and is checked without a world.
Both rows stay off the node body while the delay is 0: two lines of "0" on every
key node in every graph would be noise, and the screenshot said so. NodeDef gains
hiddenParams for that; the inspector still shows them.

A link can be folded away from the canvas: instead of a curve running clear
across the graph, each end grows a short stub with a mark naming the node at
the far side. The curve comes back while either of its two nodes is selected,
so following a connection is a click rather than a search, and a link carrying
a live pulse is always drawn so the trace keeps its thread.
Marks are collected per port, not per link, because several hidden links on one
port used to stack stubs, dots and labels on identical pixels. A bundle reads
"Move +1" and its dot selects every node the port feeds, as one undo step.
The whole thing is one optional flag on the edge; the interpreter never sees it.

The board is a list of 200 numbers now instead of 200 characters, so a cell is
Item at and a landing is Set item instead of seven nodes of string surgery.
The bigger change is that the one 219-node graph is gone. Each step of a frame is
a behavior of its own - Spawn piece, Next move, Fits, Draw piece, Lock piece,
Clear lines, Show lines, Draw board, plus Piece cell for where one of the four
cells of a piece sits. None of them holds state: what they need arrives through
their inputs, every answer leaves through their outputs. That is what lets Fits
answer for turning, moving and falling alike, and Piece cell serve the fit test,
the drawing and the landing instead of being the same twenty nodes three times.
Tetris itself is down to 84 nodes and only says in which order the steps run and
which variable each answer lands in. The smoke test holds it to that: it fails if
a loop or a list access reappears in the master graph.

A variable could only be a number, a text or a yes/no, so every set of values had
to be smuggled through a string - which is where Tetris got its unreadable
"03066326048763714" colours from. A list is now a value of its own, with an item
kind (number, text, yes/no, colour) that decides how the inspector reads the one
comma-separated line it is typed as, and eight nodes to work with: List, Fill,
Count, Item at, Set item, Sub list, Join lists, Index of.
Two traps came with it. An array is typeof 'object', so every place that told a
value from an entity had to learn the difference, or a list would have been
passed around as a game object. And a value was compared by identity in three
places - with lists that marks everything as an overridden property after each
reload, so those comparisons now compare contents.
There is no list of objects: a list is written to the project file and an object
is a live handle that no reload survives. A set of objects stays a list of names.

A behavior node that cannot run looked exactly like a healthy one: no
start node, no behavior picked, a deleted behavior or a self-call were
all silently skipped. The call still had to be forgiving at runtime -- a
dangling reference must not abort a game -- so the fix is diagnosis, not
an exception: describeProblem() names the one reason, the node draws it
in red under its title, and the inspector repeats it where you pick the
behavior. A missing end node is deliberately not a problem: a call is
always synchronous, and the end node only decides which values come back.
Two ways in: a behavior dragged from the asset panel lands in the graph
under the pointer, and double-clicking a call node opens the graph it
runs. Both reuse machinery that already existed -- the asset panel
already starts the drag, and list views already report double clicks.
The e2e module needed its assets at the head of the asset list: after 18
modules the list is long enough that a newly appended row scrolls out of
view, and the press then lands on the panel behind it, starting no drag
at all. That looked exactly like a rejected drop and cost two full runs.

A behavior that has a Start and an End node can now be dropped into any
other graph as a node of its own. What is declared on the start node
becomes the inputs of that node, what hangs on the end node its outputs;
the port list is derived from the sub graph, not copied, so declaring a
port in one graph grows the node in the other without touching it. The
node carries the behavior's name and the palette lists behaviors by
name, so a call is one grab instead of a node plus a dropdown.
An embedded behavior has no object and therefore no place for
variables: every call starts on the asset defaults and communicates
only through its ports. That is the conservative direction - state can
still be added later, and shared state already has a home in a behavior
object in the scene. Node ids are unique per graph only, so each call
gets its own pulse cache; without that, two graphs would collide.
Renaming a port used to silently drop the value typed on the calling
node. It is carried along now, project wide, like the edges.
A Tetris example project needs to draw 200 board cells and scan rows
for a full line. Neither is expressible without iteration, so the node
system gets a Repeat node plus the missing text side: Substring, Find
text and To number. The interpreter drops its data cache once per
round -- otherwise every round would recompute with the first round's
values.
Object by name takes its name as an input now, not just as a setting;
addressing "c" + index is impossible otherwise. An unconnected input
reads the stored setting, so saved projects are untouched.
The board itself is a 200-character text, "." for empty. That makes
both operations of Tetris a single expression instead of a loop, and
each frame attempts exactly one move -- rotate beats sideways beats
fall -- so the fit check exists once in the whole graph.

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 tab held a "Press Play" hint where the picture belongs. It now
previews the scene through the active camera, and says "No active camera"
when none is switched on.
Camera choice and its world position moved into activeCamera.ts so both
are testable without Pixi. Entity.x/.y are parent-relative; the viewport
used them as the camera's spot, which framed a parented camera at the
wrong place.
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.

The pixel-art check falls over sporadically, and its follow-up hid it. That one only
asked whether some pixel across the border is blended – but in the failing case the
`nearest` reading is already blurred, so the `linear` one is too, and the check passed
while saying nothing about whether the switch had any effect at all.
It now also demands that the picture actually changed against the `nearest` reading:
the summed colour distance over the five sample points must exceed 150. Measured on the
readings recorded in the note, a working switch drifts 425 and a hung one 0 – and 30
even if every channel were off by two, so the threshold is not brittle against noise.
Exact equality was the first draft and would have gone green on a single wobbling bit.
Both checks now carry `__gm.textureFilter(file)` in their message, so a failure says by
itself whether the model never switched, the switch missed the GPU sampler, or the
pixels were measured wrong.
The cause of the sporadic failure is still unknown; four hypotheses are measured and
ruled out in the note, which is filed with that stated plainly.
"+ → Texture" opened the machine's file dialog, so a picture that was uploaded once
but lost its asset – an undone import, a deleted asset – was unreachable from the
editor while still sitting on the server. Nothing collects those files, by design.
It now opens a grid of every picture the server holds, with thumbnails: pick one and
"Use image" makes a texture asset on that file, "Upload…" is the way in for bytes the
server does not have yet and lands in the same import as a drop. A tile captioned with
an asset name is one this project already wears – picking it selects that asset instead
of making a second one, since two assets on one file would fight over `filter`.
- `GET ?r=textures` now reports `width`/`height`; a texture asset holds the pixel size,
and reading it off the GPU texture would tie the asset's correctness to load timing.
- `TextureLibrary.load(file)` loads without touching `scaleMode` – a thumbnail must not
restage the filter of a picture the scene is drawing with.
- The grid geometry lives in `texture/imageGrid.ts` as pure functions; inside the widget
no test could reach it.
- The part after an upload is now one function shared by the drop import and the picker,
so "one file = one asset" is stated in a single place.
12 new E2E checks; the strongest one undoes an import, leaving the file on the server
with no asset naming it, and picks exactly that file back out of the dialog.
Chasing the flaky pixel-art check needs to tell two things apart that
look identical in a screenshot: a scale mode the model never changed,
and one that changed but never reached the sampler. Only the driver can
answer the second, so `__gm.textureFilter(file)` returns the model's
scaleMode next to `gl.getTexParameter` on the uploaded texture.
It binds through `renderer.texture.bindSource` rather than a raw
`bindTexture`, so measuring does not corrupt Pixi's idea of what is
bound and become a source of flakiness itself. `TextureLibrary.peek`
looks a picture up without starting a load or touching its scale mode,
which `get` would do.
Sixty measurements later the filter path is cleared: model and driver
agreed every time, across repeated switches, after the full module
run-up, and through a forced context loss. The instrument stays; the
note in todo-notes/flaky-pixel-art-filter.md stays open.
The inspector already marked an asset value that differs from its schema
default, but the Assets panel gave no hint, so a changed asset looked
like an untouched one until you opened it.
The rule sits next to the existing objectDeviates as a pure function:
assetDeviates asks whether any marked property differs, markedAssetSchema
says which rows the inspector marks at all. buildAssetSection now builds
its rows from that same list, replacing the behavior/rest split it used
to carry, so the list cannot claim a deviation the inspector then fails
to show.
A behavior's variables are deliberately not in it. Their default is
declared on the variable itself, which means the asset value *is* that
default; counting them would paint the fixture's Mover gold while the
inspector beside it marks nothing.
Three things the graph view did differently from the scene view, or not
at all:
Panning moves to the middle button, which works from anywhere – a node
under the pointer included, since NodeView now lets that one button
bubble up. Shift-drag on empty canvas pans too. The left button pulls a
rubber band instead and no longer pans.
Nodes can be selected several at a time: by band, by ctrl/shift-click,
moved together, deleted together, each as one undo step. The selection
model gains `nodeIds` alongside the objects' `objectIds`.
Fit really fits. It used to pin the zoom at 1 and merely centre, so a
graph larger than the view always left nodes hanging out, and it sized
every node with one guessed height although real ones vary with their
port count. Both sums now live in editor/graph/framing.ts as pure
functions, which is what made the defect testable at all.
The band selects any node it overlaps rather than one whose position it
contains, unlike the scene view: nodes are large rectangles, and a band
drawn visibly across one has to catch it.
Pixi only fills `detail` on the `click` event it synthesises; on
`pointerdown` it is always 0, so every `e.detail === 2` branch was dead
code. Asset rows, hierarchy folding and select-all in text fields never
responded to a double-click.
A shared click counter in src/ui/clicks.ts replaces the three readings of
`e.detail`. A finished double-click ends the run, so two in a row count
2 and 2 rather than 3 and 4.
The harness could only send `clickCount: 1`, which is why no test caught
this: every "activate" check went through Enter. It can send real
double-clicks now, and five checks drive the three paths separately.
An instance edit was dropped as soon as its value matched the template
object. With nested containers the template is not what the value falls
back to: the outer container holds an edit for the object below it, and
that one wins. If the inner template happened to carry the same value the
user typed, the edit was thrown away and the value jumped to whatever the
container in between says.
Reported against the Jump-and-Run project: a coin narrowed to 8 inside
"level", then set back to the sprite's own 24 in the scene, snapped back
to 8. Reproduced through the inspector before touching anything.
InstanceTarget now offers `base`: the template with the edits of every
container in between woven in. Everything that judges deviation uses it -
setOverride/setName/setPosition, both Revert commands, and the gold marks
in the inspector. Writing still goes into the real template, which is
where "apply to container" belongs.
`base` is built on every read. Apply writes into the template and then
asks whether the edit still deviates, so a base captured beforehand would
answer for the template as it was - the e2e suite caught exactly that.
Also in here, because it corrects the commit before it: placing an asset
by double-clicking its row is gone, as asked for in asset-doppelklick.md.
Dragging is the only way to place now. That took AssetPanel.place, the
PlacementTarget interface, Editor.placementTarget and the two worldCenter()
methods that existed only to feed it. A double-click on a scene asset still
makes it the active scene.
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.
Releasing an edge over empty space opened the node palette but dropped the edge
drawing, so the connection being made was invisible exactly while its target was
being chosen. The finished drag is now held in `pendingDrop` and drawn like a
running one until the palette closes, by pick or by Escape.
The e2e check for the Escape path exposed a real defect underneath: `Popup.open()`
blurs the focused widget, `close()` did not. A field inside the popup therefore kept
the keyboard bridge's DOM focus after the popup was gone, and every later Delete or
Ctrl+Z went into that invisible input. The suite caught it one check later ("Delete
removes the node and its edge" found the node still there). `close()` now blurs,
mirroring `open()`.
Verified remotely on the Windows host: 287 editor checks and 24 jump-and-run smoke
checks, no failures.
Dragging an edge now rings the port it would connect to and snaps the line
there. A drop on a node's body takes that node's first free compatible port,
or the last compatible one when none is free, replacing its link. A drop into
empty space opens the palette filtered to the node types the edge could reach
at all, and the picked node arrives wired - node and link as one undo step,
so a single undo takes back the whole gesture.
The decision of what fits what lives in core/graph/dropTarget.ts as pure
functions, tested directly; the canvas only draws the answer. The palette
takes an optional filter rather than knowing about drags.
Verified remote on the Windows box (GPU): ALL PASSED, 284 checks.
Dropped in via the share during the last task: asset drag and drop,
graph edge drag UX, multiple cameras, nested override reset, and gold
text colour for assets. Nothing implemented yet.
An inspector label whose value deviates from its base was drawn bold, which is
easy to miss next to the regular labels and says nothing in the hierarchy, where
a folded subtree could hide a change entirely.
The colour now lives as a theme token (`override`, #f2c84b) used by both the
inspector labels and the hierarchy rows. Whether a row deviates is decided by
`src/core/properties/deviation.ts`: `objectDeviates` compares an object against
what it follows -- the container template for content, the asset otherwise --
and `deviationMarks` carries the mark up to every ancestor, so a folded subtree
still shows that something inside was changed.
`deviationMarks` takes the stored holder, not the resolved one: in the resolved
view container content looks like an ordinary object and `instanceTargetOf`
would compare against the asset, marking every instance.
Covered by 3 unit tests and 5 e2e checks, including one that strips an object's
own overrides to prove the row stays gold for a deviating child and restores
them byte for byte. Full suite remote on the RTX 4070: 275 checks, all passed.
Sprite width/height stay fractional. They are geometry, not counts: the
aspect-ratio buttons compute height * w/h and legitimately produce values like
9.090909090909092 (compared with a 1e-9 tolerance), and both axes are scrubbable.
Rounding them would break the ratio the buttons just established.
Only fields that are integral by meaning round (slice grid, frame rect, camera
view, font size) - that is what 1b16a55 fixed.
Things that come up while something else is already running have nowhere to go: interrupting the
running task is wrong and remembering them is unreliable. A file per topic here keeps them, and
moving a finished one to done/ keeps what was asked next to what was built.
Contains the two notes already written (override display colour, sprite size decimals).
`decimals` only reached `formatNumber`, so it changed the label and nothing else: typing 640.5 into
a field with `decimals: 0` stored 640.5 and displayed 641. The two existing users got away with it
because rounding happened outside the widget (`normalizeFrameRect`, the slice dialog), which their
comments had to point out.
`NumberField.clampValue` now rounds before it clamps, and every path that sets a value goes through
it (typing, scrubbing, arrow keys, the constructor), so the stored number matches the shown one and
`min`/`max` stay exact. The rounding is `roundTo` in math.ts, which `snapToStep` already did inline.
With that safe, camera `View width`/`View height` and text `Font size` become integers – they were
showing 640.000 and 32.000. Everything else that looked integral is not: positions, sprite and
collider sizes and zoom are all scrubbed, and `z` is a summed coordinate (walk.ts), not a layer.
Verified remotely against the RTX 4070 host: 270 checks, all passed (step 10 gained a check that the
field text has no decimal point and survives a reopen). `npm run check` green, 407 tests.
The worktree is shared over SMB with a Windows client whose system gitconfig
has core.autocrlf=true. It checked build.sh back out with CRLF, which git then
reported as a permanent modification, and "discard changes" rewrote CRLF again
- an unbreakable loop from the Windows side. A CRLF shell script is also not
executable on Linux: the interpreter becomes "/bin/bash\r".
"* text=auto eol=lf" makes the checkout LF everywhere. This complements the
repo-local core.autocrlf=false and core.filemode=false already set in .git
- unlike those, it travels with a fresh clone.
Verified: no file in the index has CRLF, so this does not renormalize anything
existing (git ls-files --eol reports i/lf w/lf throughout).

Both shutdown paths ran Get-Process chrome,msedge | Stop-Process -Force,
which is every browser on the machine. The remote host is somebody's
desktop: a test run must not close the windows they are working in. It
only stayed harmless because the test account cannot touch another
user's processes.
The launcher now writes its browser pid to %TEMP%\gm-browser-<port>.pid
and kills that pid; the job object still takes the renderer children.
Measured against the Windows desktop: five msedge processes belonging to
the logged-in user before the run, five after, and our chrome gone.
24 smoke checks ALL PASSED.
The leash that ties the Windows browser to the run never held. Three
findings, each measured:
- stdin is not a signal: only the first chunk a caller writes reaches
the remote command, so the stdin heartbeat looked like a dead caller
and killed a run at check 44.
- a dropped SSH connection does not kill the remote command; Windows
OpenSSH leaves it running. Six orphaned chrome.exe survived a
SIGKILLed tunnel -- this is what locked up the desktop.
- Get-NetTCPConnection goes through WMI, which is denied to the
non-admin test account; the broken CIM session took a browser down
mid-run.
The launcher now watches the forwarded CDP port with .NET sockets: a
connected client means the run is alive, 45 s without one ends it. A job
object with KILL_ON_JOB_CLOSE and a 30-minute cap catch the rest, and
the caller shoots the browser on the way out instead of waiting for the
idle window.
Measured: survives 80 s of an idle held connection, gone 44 s after
kill -9 on node, immediately on an ordered end. Full suite 267 checks in
128 s and 24 smoke checks in 16 s against an RTX 4070, with this machine
at load 0.04.
/usr/bin/node is v18 here and too old for the toolchain, so every build has to
prepend /opt/node22/bin. The script also sets pipefail, since piping npm output
otherwise reports tail's exit code.

The harness forced software WebGL (--disable-gpu --use-gl=swiftshader) on every host.
Measured here on an idle editor page over 20 s: that costs 373% of a core at 8 fps,
while the Intel HD 630 via ANGLE/Vulkan costs 69% at 56 fps. The full suite now runs
in ~124 s. Note the app is not rendering 60 fps as previously assumed - in software
it only reaches 8, and a single frame costs more than any throttle interval would save,
which is why capping the framerate had measured no effect.
--use-angle=gl and --use-gl=egl look cheaper still but get no WebGL context at all,
so the app never renders. They are not usable and are named in the comment as such.
There is deliberately no software fallback: a host without a usable GPU should fail
loudly rather than drag the machine to a standstill. None of the 267 checks reads the
rendered image anyway - they read window.__gm.locate() and the debug hook, and the
screenshots assert nothing - but Pixi needs WebGL2 to run at all.
The browser launch moves out of harness.mjs into tools/lib/browser.mjs, which also
supports GM_REMOTE=user@host via an SSH-forwarded CDP port. That path is unfinished:
the tunnel degraded until the suite crawled at ~25 s per check, and forcing software
WebGL on a desktop with a real card brought it to its knees. README says so plainly
rather than advertising it.
Also: the jump-run HUD check asserted a fixed "Coins 1/10", which fails on a faster
host where the same walk sweeps up two coins. It now asserts the HUD against the count
the run actually reached - the real guarantee is that HUD and state agree.
Verified: npm run check green (404 tests), 267 e2e ALL PASSED and 24 jump-run checks
ALL PASSED against the GPU flags. The fallback removal leaves the flag set on this host
identical (same flags, different order), so it was not re-run.

typeText fired Input.insertText per character and never looked back, so a
partially typed value was indistinguishable from a wrong one: a run committed
x=3 for "300" and the failing check blamed the value rather than the three lost
characters.
Trying to reproduce that failed over 21 rounds across four variants (no pause,
400ms between characters, with the preceding scrub, and both commit paths), and
the code rules out the obvious suspects: typing lands in a hidden input, each
character is only a preview, objectSignature omits position so no rebuild is
triggered, and NumberField.setNumber guards write-back with isEditing. Cause
unknown, so this makes the symptom name itself instead of hardening against a
mechanism that may not exist.
Typing stays per character - that exercises the live-preview and search-filter
paths - but now asserts the text is in the focused input, reporting focus and
actual contents when it is not.

A run whose chromium died stopped mid-step and exited with code 0, silently
reporting success for checks it never ran: CDP.send() left its promise pending
when the socket closed, and an unsettled promise does not keep node alive.
Waiting on the server had the mirror problem – a bare fetch keeps its socket
open, so a stalled response hung the run forever.
Every wait can now time out, the socket rejects what it can no longer answer,
and reaching process exit without a summary reports RUN DIED with exit 1.
Chromium's stderr and exit signal are kept, so "killed by SIGKILL" is visible
rather than guessed at.

The aspect button now carries two offers, so it becomes a menu: fit one
side to the texture ratio, or set both sides to the exact pixel size as a
single undo step.
Dropping a row on the outer quarter of another row inserts it into that
gap instead of parenting into it, reordering among the siblings there.
Order is the stored order, so ReorderObjectCommand is a splice; equal z
falls back to tree order, which makes this the way to draw one object in
front of another. Rejected on container content like the other structural
edits.

Two regressions from the template-resolution rework, plus the harness gap
that hid them:
- `instanceTargetOf` decided from the shape of the id. Unpacking keeps the
derived ids, so unpacked content still counted as template content. It now
asks whether the object is spelled out in the holder.
- The parent picker captured its holder when the row was built. Since
`viewOf()` returns a derived copy, the menu listed the objects of that
moment (measured: 40 in the model, 17 in the menu). It resolves on open.
- `evaluate()` swallowed page exceptions, so a mutate that died half-way let
every later check pass or fail for the wrong reason.

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.

Scene labels used `small` (11 px), the Texture tab used `body` (13 px). Both now
read `Theme.viewportLabelSize` through two tokens that differ only in colour.
Dropping the per-frame `label.style.fill` assignment matters: textStyle() returns
shared cached instances, so with both views on one token it would have recoloured
the scene labels too.

Add ↔ next to Width and ↕ next to Height in the inspector. Each sets its
field so the sprite matches the ratio of its assigned texture or frame,
reading the frame's own rect rather than the sheet's.
The buttons reuse the existing FieldActions convention, so they simply
do not appear when no texture is assigned, when the sprite is already
proportional, or on assets whose schema has no texture property.
Comparison is a cross product with a relative tolerance: 3135 of the
40000 size pairs up to 200x200 do not survive a round trip through a
division, so an exact check would leave the button standing after its
own click.

ButtonOptions.width claimed to be a fixed width but only set minWidth,
so the Graph and Texture pickers grew with the name they showed. It is
now what it promises, with a separate minWidth for the buttons that have
two forms. Narrow buttons shrink their padding, otherwise a 24px icon
button had 8px left for its glyph and truncate dropped it entirely.
__gm.labelsDropped() guards that class: the overflow guard only saw text
that was too wide, never a label truncated to nothing.

- NumberField takes a decimals option (default 3); frame rects and the
slice dialog use 0, matching their integer model.
- Button truncates its label to the drawn width; Dropdown reserves the
chevron slot. NodeView reuses the shared truncate().
- Setting scaleMode leaves the style's shared resource id in place, so
the old GPU sampler stayed in use until a reload. Call style.update().
- Graph gets a header bar like the Texture tab: GraphEditor is now the
frame, the former editor is GraphCanvas. A selection the tab does not
concern no longer unloads the behavior.
- New e2e step 14 guards text overflow across all widgets.

A new Texture tab next to Scene/Game/Graph shows a texture sheet and lets
frames be drawn on it: drag to create, move, resize via eight handles, edit
name and rect in the inspector, Delete to remove. Every change is a command,
so one gesture is one undo step. "Slice..." cuts a grid from columns and rows
with optional offset and spacing, previewing the resulting frame count and
cell size live.
Sprites pick a frame instead of the whole texture through the same `texture`
property: it now holds either a texture id or a frame id. Frame ids come from
the same generator and are document-wide unique, so one picker, one property
and one set of instance overrides cover both cases, and every sprite written
before this still means the same thing.
A Graphics fill ignores a Pixi sub-texture's frame and draws the whole image,
because it derives its uvs from the shape bounds and the inverted style
matrix. The cutout is therefore a matrix (`viewport/textureFill.ts`), which
keeps a sheet at a single GPU upload no matter how many of its frames are on
screen at once.

Images are uploaded to a content-addressed blob endpoint and stored as
data/textures/<sha256>.<ext>; the project only keeps the file name. The
sprite points at a texture asset through an ordinary property of the new
kind `asset`, so instance overrides, "Apply to container", "Reset to
asset", undo and `Set property` work without any extra code. The new kind
also replaces the ad-hoc asset picker the graph nodes faked as an enum.
Import goes through + -> Texture, drag & drop onto the canvas or Ctrl+V.
Images wider than 2048px are downscaled client-side and re-encoded to
WebP if needed, because nginx caps uploads at 1MB; an image that already
fits is uploaded byte for byte so pixel art is never resampled.
The sprite colour default changes from red to white, since colour tints
the texture multiplicatively and a tint of white shows an image as it is.

Number fields derived their display precision from `step`, so `step: 1`
(X/Y/Z, width, height, font size) rendered a stored 100.234 as "100" — and
because `onChange` parses the text, touching the field wrote the rounded
value back into the project. `formatNumber` now renders every number with
three decimals, independent of `step`, which is left to control the scrub
and arrow-key increment only.
Dragging now snaps to the increment's grid (`snapToStep`), so a scrub at
`step: 1` always lands on whole numbers even from a fractional start, while
Alt (x0.1) and the 0.1-step fields keep their precision. Typed values and
arrow keys are untouched.

Menu entries are left-aligned and live in a ScrollContainer capped at 320 px, so a
long list (the parent picker holds every object of the scene) scrolls instead of
running off the screen. `Menu(items, { searchable: true })` puts a filter box above
the scroll area; Enter takes the first match. Filtering forces a relayout because
two queries with the same hit count leave the height unchanged, which would keep
the stale row positions.
Fields that open a menu are a new `Dropdown` widget: the value sits flush left and
the chevron is drawn flush right instead of being written into the label. A menu
opened below a field is never narrower than that field.
New debug hooks `overlayTexts()` / `overlayRect()` make the popup contents
assertable; e2e step 11 covers the cap, the scrolling and the search box.

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.

- SceneObject.editorOffset (x/y): shifts only where an object is drawn in
the Scene tab, cascades to children, undo-able with a reset action.
Never written into container templates.
- On click without an owner now fires for any click inside the camera
frame instead of hit-testing the (editor-only) behavior symbol.
- seed-jumprun: coins are a "Coin" container (sprite + trigger), nested
containers are expanded recursively, Destroy targets the coin's parent,
and the clock uses a Ceil node instead of ToText.

- Inspector rows compute their reset/apply entries through providers, so an
entry that would not change anything is dropped; a single remaining entry
renders as a direct button instead of a menu, none removes it entirely.
- Bold and buttons now follow the same rule (deviatesFromAsset /
deviatesFromTemplate in core/properties/resolve.ts).
- Hierarchy panel is a collapsible tree: chevrons, arrow keys, double click,
expand/collapse all. Everything starts collapsed; selecting an object
expands its ancestors and scrolls it into view.

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.

Move with "Collide with solids" now steps in sub-steps of at most half the
thinnest collider, so a fast step can no longer jump across a collider (the
crates are only 60 high, which is why it showed up mostly on the y axis). A
pre-existing overlap is still never resolved, but it can no longer be
deepened either, so a small overlap cannot open a wall permanently.
seed-demo.mjs now writes the saved demo scene: a "Player" container (green
sprite with collider and the Mover behavior) against two "Enemy" container
instances, camera at zoom 0.5, Spawner dropping another enemy on Space.
The e2e checks assert against the old two-crate layout and locate widgets by
text, which the demo can no longer provide (three identically named sprite
instances, both crates nested in containers). Its fixture therefore moves to
tools/seed-e2e.mjs so the shipped demo can evolve without rewriting 100+
checks: seed-e2e -> e2e -> seed-demo.
