adminandClaude Opus 5.5 fe4e0d9f1a Snap to the grid from the start in every graph tab (#391)
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 4m12s
game-maker / suite (push) Successful in 15m55s
Laying out a graph by hand mostly means lining nodes up, so the
magnet was switched on in nearly every session. Every graph tab now
starts with it lit: Behavior, State machine, Shader, Particles,
Sound FX, Instrument, the song's Routing and the Routing tab.

- SnapToggle takes the state it starts in and lights its button to
  match. GRAPH_SNAPS_AT_FIRST sets it for the toggles and for
  GraphCanvas alike, so button and canvas cannot disagree.
- Curve and Vector Art are no graphs and still start without it.
- New hook __gm.graphSnapping(on?) reads every graph tab's magnet,
  or "mixed" where button and canvas differ, and switches them all.
- The e2e harness reads the magnets after each navigate() and then
  switches them off, as it already sets the zoom transition to 0.
  Most checks drag a node to an exact spot. e2e 45 does the same
  itself, because the editor comes up there through the sign-in.
- e2e 06 checks that all eight graph tabs started with the magnet on.
  The checks in 06, 26 and 65 that read it off now say they read
  what the harness left.

Tests:
- Unit snap-toggle: 4 tests, 1 new (lit at first, nothing asked of
  the target before a click).
- e2e 06 (melektaus-atx): 150 checks, 1 new. e2e 34: 134 checks.
- Gate (melektaus-atx, together with #390): 287 files, 4397 tests.
- Pictures looked at: none, the state comes from the hook.

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 ab37d3423a Let graphs zoom out to an eighth (#387)
With the Chip and the Filter drawn as devices, a preset such as the
Laser is about 3060 units wide. In a window of 1280 px a fit then hit
the floor of 0.25 and cut the Notes node off on the left.

- ZOOM_LIMITS.min goes from 0.25 to 0.125. The graph zooms without
  steps, so one more step is the floor halved. 0.125 is also the
  smallest step of the scene view.
- It holds for the wheel, for Fit and for the node board of plugins.
- The grid still hides itself below 8 px, so it does not flicker.

Tests:
- Unit plugins and graph-framing: 55 tests green, the floor test now
  expects 0.125.
- e2e 06 (atx): ALL PASSED, 149 checks. Only a comment that named 0.25
  changed there.
- Gate (atx): CHECK EXIT 0, 285 files, 4377 tests.

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 297fca3e94 Show Direction and Curve of a node only where they matter
An animation key shows Direction only for one of the ten curves and
the Curve row only for Curve. Lerp and Set sound FX parameters hid
them on the node body, but the inspector still offered both rows for
every easing, so a linear Lerp had a Direction to pick that did
nothing.

- A node definition can name `idleParams`: settings that do nothing
  at the current values. The node body and the inspector both leave
  them out.
- `hiddenParams` stays as it was. It only trims the node body, the
  inspector keeps those rows (the Order of an event, the mode of
  Find), so it could not take this job.
- Lerp and Set sound FX parameters use `idleEasing` (formerly
  `hiddenEasing`) for it.
- The idle settings are part of the node signature of the inspector.
  Picking an easing that needs Direction or Curve rebuilds the
  section, and the row appears.

Tests:
- easing-curves: 14 tests (+1), node-catalog: 381, green
- e2e 06 (149 checks, green) checks that a new linear Lerp has no
  Direction and no Curve row in the inspector. Picking Cubic brings
  the Direction row, and Out is picked there as before.

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 e7a360db73 Offer the easings of an animation key on Lerp and sound FX ramps
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 3m15s
game-maker / suite (push) Successful in 15m36s
A timed Set sound FX parameters ran only linearly, and a Lerp had four
quadratic eases of its own. An animation key already had the full set.
Now all three offer the same choice: Linear, Step, the ten curves from
Sine to Bounce with In, Out or In-out, and a drawn Curve asset.

- easingParams in src/core/graph/nodes/easing.ts gives a node the
  fields Easing, Direction and Curve from the key's own lists, and
  easingOfParams reads them back as a key interpolation.
- There is no migration. A Lerp saved with the old in, out or inOut
  runs linear until its easing is picked again.
- Set sound FX parameters hands the easing to the player. Linear and
  Step stay ramps of the audio clock, every other easing goes to
  setValueCurveAtTime as 200 samples a second, in semitones and dB.
- Step now reaches its end at t 1. A key never asked for that, it
  reads the next key itself, so animations play as before.
- The curve-in-use count and the warning for a gone curve cover the
  sound node too.

Tests:
- node-catalog: Lerp with cubic in, quad out and in-out, a curve
  without a direction, step, an unknown easing as linear. The sound
  node hands on a curve, step and a gone curve as linear.
- sound-library: an eased change becomes a curve in semitones and
  decibels, a step a jump at the end.
- node-catalog and curve after dropping the old values: 399, green.
- e2e 6, 34, 53 on melektaus-atx: ALL PASSED, 198 checks. In Chrome a
  2 s Quad in from depth 7 to -5 read speed 0.864 early and 0.5 at the
  end, a 1 s Step held 1 and then jumped to 0.5.
- Counter-check: with curves sent as linear ramps, the curve test of
  the sound library fails.

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 b895ae99c0 Show the graph in the e2e 6 screenshot of the long name (#306)
The check for the long animation name ran after a play and stop, which
leave the editor on the scene tab. Its screenshot showed the scene, not
the node. The check itself read the row through the test hook and was
not affected.

- The step switches back to the graph tab before it renames the
  animation.

Tests:
- e2e 6: all passed, 149 checks. The screenshot shows the node, with
  "animation Swi…" ending before a whole "progress".

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 2aa635f453 Keep an output's name readable beside a long inline value (#306)
An input and an output in the same port row were cut to fit each on
its own. The input text could reach x = 123 and the output label could
start at x = 83, so a long inline value ran under the output's name.
At Animation playing a long animation name covered "progress".

- The output label is placed first and keeps its room. The input text
  is cut with an ellipsis 6 px before it, as decided in the issue.
- The rule is a pure function in src/editor/graph/portRow.ts. A row
  without an output keeps the input's old limit of 108 px.
- The value a run shows beside an output uses the same rule. Its left
  edge can no longer lie right of its right edge.
- New test hook __gm.graph.rowSpans(nodeId) gives each row's input
  and output text as cut and placed, in node units.
- NODE_WIDTH stays as it is, as decided in the issue.

Tests:
- Gate: 230 files, 3520 tests (6 new in port-row.test.ts).
- e2e 6: all passed, 149 checks (148 + 1).
- Counter-check: with the rule switched off, the input text reaches
  x = 121.4 under "progress" at x = 114.1, and the new check fails.

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 c7dc0e4733 Leave hiding and deleting a link to its right-click menu
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 2m51s
game-maker / suite (push) Successful in 14m57s
The inspector of a picked link carried the buttons Hide link and
Delete link below its facts. Both actions are in the right-click
menu of the line since #289, and Delete removes a picked link as
well. The user asked for the buttons to go.

- buildEdgeSection in editor/inspector/edgeSection.ts only
  describes now: the two ends, the type, and for a transition its
  name field.
- The button under several picked links and Delete transition in a
  state machine go with them. They came from the same line of
  code, and the menu offers both.
- The note under several links stays. It speaks of the Delete key.

Tests:
- Gate on melektaus-atx: 212 files, 3260 tests, exit 0.
- e2e 4,6,26 on melektaus-atx: 275 checks, all pass.
- No full run and no smokes. The sum of e2e checks stays at 1676,
  which is reckoned.
- Module 06 now checks that the inspector of a picked link shows
  neither button. Its menu check finds Hide link and Delete link
  only in the menu, where it had to take the one drawn last before.
- Module 26 checks that a picked transition shows no Delete
  transition.
- No unit test names the buttons. No counter-probe was run. The
  old checks found both texts in the inspector, which is the state
  the new ones would fail on.

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 9ca220a285 Hand a shared port type on through a chain of nodes (#210)
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 2m51s
game-maker / suite (push) Successful in 14m44s
Since #207 the output of First not empty or Select takes the type
its inputs agree on. A second node of that kind behind the first
stayed any, because the first one answered with the any it was
registered with. That was the guard against a circle of such nodes
asking each other forever. The issue asks for the type to travel
through the chain. Answered there: measure with 50 nodes and build
no cache, and the painted input pins follow along.

- shapedDef in core/graph/nested.ts takes a Trail in place of the
  flag inherit. Its set open holds the nodes still being asked. A
  node reached a second time reports the any it was registered
  with, which ends a circle.
- The map done of the Trail keeps each answer of one question. A
  node feeding both inputs of the next is asked once, so the work
  does not double with every link of a chain.
- ownShape is the part of shapedDef that builds the ports before a
  shared group has its say. It is split off, nothing in it changed.
- Inputs stay any and only outputs inherit, as in #207. An edge
  that turns invalid further down is left in place and drawn in the
  danger colour.
- paintedInputs uses one Trail for all pins of a node, so the pins
  show the type handed on through the chain.
- Nothing is cached between two changes. A chain of 50 resolved in
  about 10 ms where it took 2 ms before, measured earlier in this
  round and not again for this commit.

Tests:
- Gate on melektaus-atx: 211 files, 3240 tests (3227 + 13), exit 0
- e2e 1-6 on melektaus-atx: 298 checks, all pass
- e2e 4,6,18,19,20,23,24,26,28,31,36,43,53: 558 checks, all pass
- No full run and no smokes. The sum of 1673 (1671 + 2) is reckoned,
  1671 is what CI counted for c88f57c.
- Fourteen unit tests in shared-port-type.test.ts: a chain of two
  and of three, mixed kinds, a mixed and an open input, undo at the
  front, a circle of two, a node feeding itself, behind a circle, an
  invalid edge further down, the chain of 40 asked once per node,
  the chain of 50, and two for the pins. The test saying the type
  does not pass through a second node is gone, hence 13 more.
- Two e2e checks in module 06: the second node takes number, and a
  text at the front opens the whole chain again.
- Four unit counter-probes and one browser counter-probe all fail
  their tests. With the old behaviour only the chain check fails.
- Not checked in the browser: the circle and the chain of three,
  which have unit tests only. Nothing was looked at after the build.

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 6d79cf59a3 Move a large graph instead of drawing it again (#292)
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 2m44s
game-maker / suite (push) Successful in 13m55s
In a graph of many nodes the frame rate dropped while panning, and
more so while one node was dragged. Every pointer move rebuilt every
box, every text and every curve, and a drag also announced a changed
project, so the panels rebuilt along with it.

- Panning and zooming move the picture. GraphCanvas.applyView sets
  position and scale and draws anew only the grid and the rubber
  band. It used to call redraw().
- A node draws its box and makes its texts only when what they show
  has changed. NodeView keeps a signature of what redraw reads and
  one of what rebuildTexts reads, and returns early while they hold.
- A drag does not announce a changed project. GraphDrags writes the
  model on every pointer move and asks the canvas once a frame to
  follow (GraphCanvasHost.moved). state.preview() waits for the
  command of the release.
- Nodes outside the picture are not drawn. inView in graphView.ts is
  the rule, cull() applies it after every redraw and every change of
  the view.
- The graph is a render group, and box and pins go into the batch.
  The mask sits on a container above the group, on the group itself
  it would be panned and zoomed along.
- The rubber band and the drop mark of a dragged behavior are drawn
  on their own (drawBand), without a redraw of the graph.

Measured in the CI image with 388 nodes and 540 links, fitted to the
canvas, 240 pointer moves 16 ms apart:

- Pan, script per move: 25.2 ms before, 2.0 ms after
- Pan: 4.4 frames per second before, 18.7 after
- Drag a node: 2.7 frames per second before, 22.4 after
- The still picture: 9 frames per second before, 21 after

Not solved: the still picture of such a graph stays at 21 frames per
second in the test browser. What is left is the drawing itself, and
the frame rates are those of that browser, not of a desktop GPU.

Tests:
- Gate on melektaus-atx: 207 files, 3121 tests (3114 + 7), exit 0
- e2e 4,6,18,19,20,23,24,26,28,31,36,43,51,53 on melektaus-atx: 542
  pass, 1 fail. The fail is module 51 after module 43, an order the
  suite does not have, and it fails the same way without this
  change. Module 51 alone: 12 checks, all pass.
- No full run and no smokes. The sum of 1660 (1656 + 4) is reckoned,
  and the CI workflow is switched off.
- Seven unit tests: six for inView in tests/editor/graph-view.test.ts
  and one in frame-preview.test.ts
- Four e2e checks in block 6z-xii of module 06: pan, drag, zoom in
  and fit, a changed value
- Seven browser counter-probes fail 2 to 3 checks each

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 c5ba21533d Pick a link on its line and delete it from there (#289)
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 2m37s
game-maker / suite (push) Successful in 13m10s
A link could only be removed through the menu of its port, and the
line itself took no input. A transition of a state machine could only
be deleted in the list of the inspector. Now the line is the handle,
in a behavior's graph and between states alike.

- A click on a line selects that link and draws a halo behind it. A
  press counts within 6 screen pixels of the line, and where two cross
  the one drawn last wins.
- Ctrl-click or Shift-click adds a link or takes it away. The rubber
  band takes every line it crosses, into the same selection as the
  nodes and boxes it caught.
- Delete or Backspace removes what is picked as one undo step. A
  right-click on a line offers Hide link and Delete link.
- The inspector shows a picked link: the node and port at each end and
  the type it carries, with Hide link and Delete link below. For
  several it says how many.
- The arrow of a transition is picked the same way, on its name too.
  Delete or a right-click with Delete transition removes it.
- The menu of a port is unchanged, Disconnect included, as answered in
  the issue.
- editor/graph/edgeHit.ts holds the hit test as pure functions, and
  editor/inspector/edgeSection.ts builds the section. The selection
  has a new kind edge, and node and annotation carry edgeIds.

Decided here:

- A hidden link has no line and is never picked this way, also while
  it is shown on loan. Its mark at the port stays its handle.
- The menu of a line speaks about the whole selection, like the menu
  of a box. With nodes or boxes held alongside it reads Delete N
  items.
- Hiding picked links lets go of them, since no line is left.
- A link wins over the box it crosses, and a mark wins over a link.
- A transition has no Hide entry.
- With nodes or boxes in the selection the inspector keeps showing
  the node or box, not the link.

Tests:
- Gate: 201 files, 2982 tests (2967 + 15), exit 0
- e2e, full run: 1635 checks passed (1629 + 6), exit 0
- Smokes: 24 / 19 / 21, exit 0

- 12 unit counter-probes all fail tests, run on stein2
- Three browser counter-probes fail, the build went through each
  time: no hit on the line, no halo, a band that skips lines
- Screenshots of a picked link and a picked transition looked at
  before the last build, none after it

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

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

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

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

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 c1cc80bb45 Add nodes that ask whether an animation still runs (#233)
A graph could start, pause and stop an animation and hear it finish,
but it could not ask in between whether one runs or how far it is.
Two data nodes answer that now.

- Animation playing takes an object and an animation and gives
  playing, progress and time left (s). It answers at the moment it is
  read: right after Play animation in the same pass it says on, and in
  the frame On animation finished fires it says off.
- With Animation at None it answers for the running animation started
  last on the object.
- Animation length gives the seconds of one pass, from the timeline
  and the frame rate alone.
- The rule is a pure function in src/core/model/animation.ts
  (playerStatus, leadingPlayer). The nodes reach an animation's
  length through a new field animation on GraphLookup.
- animationPort is exported so both nodes show the same picker as
  Play animation.

Decided in the issue: a Once (reset) counts as running while it blends
out, and progress and time left also hold for Loop and Ping-pong, at
the place of the playhead. On Ping-pong progress falls again on the
way back and time left counts to the next turn.

Decided here, the issue says nothing on it:
- A paused animation does not count as running. Progress and time
  left stand still.
- One that Stop animation fades out does not count as running, and
  its time left is 0.
- Time left of a Once (reset) includes its blend out. While it blends
  out progress is 1 and time left is the rest of the fade.

Finding, not fixed: on the node the name of the chosen animation
overlaps the output label progress in the same row. That comes from
the fixed node width in NodeView and was seen in the Fit view only.

Tests:
- Gate: 198 files, 2903 tests (2891 + 12), exit 0
- e2e 1-6: 282 checks passed, 06 has +2 for block 6z-ix
- Nine unit counter-probes fail, 1 to 4 tests each
- The browser counter-probe fails 6z-ix with ["false","false"]
- e2e total 1615 is computed, not measured in a full run. The smokes
  were not run.

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 5fbc6eb088 Set the order in which event nodes run across behaviors (#264)
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 3m42s
game-maker / suite (push) Failing after 11m7s
Which of two events ran first depended on hidden lists: the order of
the behavior instances and the order in which nodes were created. A
graph had no way to say that one On update must run before another,
and an On update of one behavior could run before a key event of
another.

- A frame now runs event kind by event kind over all behaviors: On
  disable and On enable, key down, key up, key held, timer, collision
  enter, stay and exit, animation finished, click, mouse wheel and at
  last On update.
- All 17 event nodes have a field Order, a whole number, default 0,
  negative allowed. Within one kind a lower Order runs earlier, no
  matter which behavior holds the node.
- On a tie the current hierarchy decides from top to bottom, then the
  order in which the nodes were created. The old rule that a behavior
  enabled later goes to the end is gone.
- The node shows Order: 5 only when the value is not 0, so existing
  graphs look the same.
- The rule lives as pure functions in core/graph/eventOrder.ts. The
  interpreter can now fire a single event node.

Changes in existing projects:

- An object destroyed in a frame gets no further event in that frame.
  On disable and On destroy still come at the end of the frame.
- New instances get all their On start first, then all On enable.
  Teardown runs all On disable first, then all On destroy.
- State events follow right after the event kind that caused them.
- Four unit tests had fixed the old order and are adjusted:
  two in behavior-events, one in physics-system, one in key-repeat.

Tests:

- ./check.sh: 191 files, 2784 tests, CHECK EXIT 0.
- GM_STEPS=1-6: ALL PASSED, 280 checks.
- Full e2e run (local): ALL PASSED, 1551 checks, measured.
- tests/core/event-order.test.ts: 11 tests for the rule, the field on
  all 17 nodes, order across behaviors, key before update, two nodes
  in one graph, On start, hierarchy after late enable and reorder at
  runtime, state events, save and load.
- e2e 6z-viii, 2 checks with real mouse and keyboard: Order -1 set in
  the inspector shows on the node, and a run logs B, A although B is
  lower in the hierarchy.
- Counter-checks: 5 in unit tests and 1 in the browser, all fail as
  expected. The originals were restored and checked with cmp.

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

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

Found on the way:

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

Tests:

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

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 38e0f656be Split a struct output into one pin per field (#256)
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 3m32s
game-maker / suite (push) Successful in 10m45s
Reading one field of a struct needed its own Expand node, even where
the graph already knows the struct type. A split output shows the
fields directly on the node, so a Find … Match test becomes a single
Equals and the wires keep running left to right.

- Right-clicking an output pin offers "Split into <Type> fields" when
  the type is known and "Split as …" for every other struct asset.
  The output is replaced by one pin per field with the field's kind.
- The type is known for typed struct variables, typed Pack/Expand,
  fields of another split and item of For each, Find, Match and Item
  at over a typed list (portSplits.ts).
- Right-clicking a field pin offers "Recombine". Splitting drops the
  edges of the whole output, recombining drops the field edges. One
  undo step brings them back.
- The split is stored as GraphNode.splits and saved with the graph.
  Copy and paste carry it along.
- Field pins follow the struct asset like a typed Expand. A new field
  gets a pin, a removed field loses pin and edge, a renamed field keeps
  its edge. Deleting the asset keeps the last fields. The delete dialog
  counts splits, so it now says "node(s)" instead of "Pack/Expand
  node(s)".
- Renaming a variable carries its split and the field edges along.
- At run time the node still produces the whole value. A field pin
  reads its field like Expand, a missing field reads as empty.
- Limits: outputs only, one level, behavior graphs only.

Tests:
- ./check.sh: 185 files, 2706 tests, CHECK EXIT 0
- e2e GM_STEPS=1-6,54,55: ALL PASSED, 303 checks
- New port-splits.test.ts with 12 tests. e2e 6z-vi with 3 checks
  using a real mouse: split Find.item, wire item.Name into the test
  and Match.item.Amount into the log (logs 7), recombine.
- Counter-checks: without field reads in the interpreter, without
  rename in the split, without moving edges on rename and without
  cleanup on field removal one unit test fails each. In the browser,
  without field reads nothing is logged and without type inference
  the split entry is missing.
- Check total in README: 1520.

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 2aaca01929 Find the first matching item with a Find … Match block (#255)
Searching a list with For each needs the test result wired back into
break on the left of the loop node. The wires then run across the node
and the graph reads badly. Find … Match keeps the whole search flowing
left to right, while the test in between stays a free graph.

- Find takes exec and list and offers item and index. It sets them to
  each element in turn and has no exec output of its own.
- Match reads its bool input match once per element. The first true
  value continues at found with item and index of the hit. No hit or an
  empty list continues at not found with an empty item and index -1.
- The pair is derived from the wiring and stored nowhere. A Match
  belongs to the Find whose item or index its test is built from. Copy,
  paste and undo therefore need no extra code (findBlock.ts).
- An unpaired Find or Match, two Matches on one Find and a Match fed
  by two Finds show a warning on the node. At run time the flow ends at
  an unpaired Find and the console says so.
- Adding Find from the palette places its Match 480 px to the right in
  the same undo step.
- The graph draws a quiet frame behind Find, Match and the nodes of the
  test. Literals feeding the test from outside stay outside the frame.
- The test consists of data nodes only, like the break of For each.

Tests:
- ./check.sh: 184 files, 2694 tests, CHECK EXIT 0
- e2e GM_STEPS=1-6: ALL PASSED, 272 checks
- New find-match.test.ts with 12 tests, 2 catalog cases, e2e 6z-v
  with 3 checks using a real mouse.
- Counter-checks: ignoring the test fails 4 unit tests, no ambiguity
  check fails 2, framing everything fails 1. In the browser, no frame
  and no Match from the palette each fail their check.
- Check total in README: 1517.

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 cb8a2d029a Loop over a list and stop at the first match with For each (#249)
Finding the first item that matches took Count, Repeat, Item at and a
Branch, and the loop could not stop once it had found something. A graph
has no lambdas, so the predicate is an input that is read every round.

- For each runs body once per element, with item and index set, and
  goes on at done.
- Its break input is read anew before every round, after item is set.
  Once it is true the loop ends there and that round's body does not
  run.
- done sees the matching item and index with stopped true. Without a
  match it sees no item, index -1 and stopped false, the OrDefault.
- RepeatResult has optional items, stopWhen, stopped and exhausted.
  GraphInterpreter.loop reads them, Repeat runs as before.

Tests:
- ./check.sh: 180 files, 2623 tests, CHECK EXIT 0
- e2e GM_STEPS=1-6: ALL PASSED, 269 checks
- 5 interpreter tests in graph.test.ts, 2 catalog cases
- e2e 6z-iv: the palette creates the node, and a search for
  Name == "Gold" in Axe, Gold, Bow, Gold logs "1true"
- Counter-checks: without the break check 2 unit tests fail, and with
  break not read over its edge 6z-iv fails
- This commit alone: tsc and the three touched unit files pass
  (349 tests)

game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 3m23s
game-maker / suite (push) Failing after 9m24s
Every animation in a behavior had to build its interpolation from
Subtract, Multiply and Add, once per axis. The gold pickup in
"Garden of Sacrifices" needed about 30 nodes for that alone. A single
Lerp node with an ease makes those chains one node each.

- Lerp has the inputs a (default 0), b (1) and t (0) and the output
  result. It sits in the data category next to Clamp.
- The Ease setting offers Linear, In, Out and In-out, all quadratic.
  The node row shows it as "Ease: Out".
- t is held in 0..1. A timer that overshoots in the last frame still
  lands exactly on b.

Tests:
- ./check.sh: 178 files, 2583 tests, CHECK EXIT 0
- 7 new cases in the node catalog test. Without the clamp on t,
  2 of them fail.
- e2e 6z-iii (2 checks): typing "lerp" in the palette adds a linear
  Lerp, and picking "Out" in the inspector reaches the node and its
  row. GM_STEPS=1-6: ALL PASSED, 267 checks.
- README check sum is 1459, computed, not counted.

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

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

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

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 1d18862ed6 Give unconnected node inputs the default the node shows (#234)
A new node handed null to every unconnected input that had no port
default, even a Bool. The inspector showed false, 0, "" or an empty
list at the same time, so what the node read was not what the editor
said. 97 of 135 inputs of the built-in nodes were affected.

- inlineValue() falls back to the default the inspector shows. One
  place covers every node, also future ones and saved projects.
- A default list is handed out as a fresh copy per read, so a node
  that edits its input in place cannot change the shared default.
- The node shows the value it reads: an empty text or list as
  (empty), an object or struct input without a link as (null).
  Live values while playing use the same words.
- A key input without a key keeps showing a dash, like the key field
  in the inspector.
- Visible changes in old projects: To text without input gives ""
  instead of "0", Select and First not empty give "" instead of null.

Tests:
- 8 new unit tests in tests/core/inline-defaults.test.ts, among them
  one over all built-in nodes that no typed-in input reads null.
- The e2e check in module 6 reads the rows of an unlinked Name of
  node. The check sum stays the same.
- ./check.sh: 167 files, 2434 tests, exit 0. e2e 6: 117 checks.

adminandClaude Opus 5 d7a2521ca7 A port can take its type from what is plugged into it (#207)
game-maker / gate (push) Canceled after 1m8s
game-maker / suite (push) Canceled after 1m8s
Until now every port of "First not empty" was grey and typeless, so the
editor could not tell you what actually travels through the node. The
output is now typed as soon as both inputs agree, and every any-input is
painted in the colour of its own edge. Nothing changes at runtime.

- A NodeDef can declare which of its ports carry the same value
  (`sharedType: { inputs, outputs }`). The rule itself lives as a pure
  function `agreedType` in `src/core/graph/portTypes.ts`.
- Only the output inherits. It becomes the shared type when every input
  of the group is connected and they all carry the same type, otherwise
  it stays `any`.
- The inputs stay `any` on purpose. `canConnect` checks against the port
  type and a busy input is replaced by the new edge, so a typed `a`
  could never be re-plugged with a text without disconnecting first.
- Chains do not propagate. When looking up what feeds an input, a node
  of the same kind reports the `any` it is registered with, so two of
  them in a row stay untyped and a data cycle cannot ask itself in a
  circle.
- An edge that the new type makes invalid stays where it is and turns
  red. `EdgeLayer` already paints a mismatching edge with `danger`,
  nothing is disconnected on its own.
- New `PortDef.paintType`: colour only, never truth. It is set in
  `drawnDef` and read in `NodeView.redraw`, so `canConnect`, the
  interpreter and the compiler keep seeing `any`. Every connected
  any-input is painted, not just members of a `sharedType` group; ghost
  ports keep their hollow red look.
- The pin now matches the edge that ends in it, because both take the
  colour from the resolved output type of the neighbour. Mixed sources
  therefore show two colours, which explains why the output stays grey.
- New hooks `__gm.graph.portTypes(id)`, `__gm.graph.edgeColor(id)` and
  `__gm.themeColor(name)`. `portTypes` reports type and paint colour
  separately so the type checks do not silently become colour checks.

Findings:

- `resolveDef` only appends derived ports to the registered ones, so a
  fixed port cannot be retyped that way -- it would appear twice. The
  shared type is therefore resolved before the ports are built.
- Answer 5 of the issue (inline field follows the type) has no case left
  under variant A: an unconnected input stays `any` and keeps its text
  field.
- `Item at`, `Join` and `Equals` do not profit: `Item at` has no
  any-input, the other two have fixed outputs. The next candidates are
  the shader arithmetic nodes, which were left alone.

Tests:

- ./check.sh -> 143 files, 2127 tests, exit 0 (was 142 / 2113)
- GM_STEPS=1-6 fresh -> ALL PASSED, 245 checks (was 242), 9 of them new
- 14 new unit tests in tests/core/shared-port-type.test.ts
- 9 new e2e checks in block 6z, one of them a pixel check straight on
  the pin via pixelAt + themeColor
- Counter-probes all bite: filtering unconnected inputs out of
  `agreedType` fails 3 unit tests, ignoring `inherit` fails 1, killing
  the derivation in the bundle fails exactly the 2 expected e2e checks,
  and never setting `paintType` fails 4 unit tests plus the 3 pin
  checks (#bdbdbd instead of #e6a8ff / #6fcf97)
- Screenshot read: `a` pink, `b` green, output `value` grey, edges in
  the same colours
- Check total 1302 (1299 + 3), 1293 was measured by CI at 1a3babf

game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 2m38s
game-maker / suite (push) Successful in 8m31s
The suite job for 0d20776 died in module 06. The new font and theme
moved the layout, and three checks relied on the old one.

- 06: the ranking step right-clicked the spot where step 6d had just
  dropped a Log node. Whether that click hits the node depends on how
  the layout snaps it. It now asks for a fresh empty spot.
- 14 and 27 expected a shut panel to keep 30 px. The header is
  Theme.rowHeight + 4, now 26. A new hook __gm.panelHeader hands the
  checks the real height, so the next theme change does not break
  them again.

Tests:
- ./check.sh: 141 files, 2080 tests, exit 0
- Local full run before the fix: 06 passed with the new spot, only the
  three header checks in 14 and 27 failed.

game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 2m13s
game-maker / suite (push) Successful in 7m33s
The snap toggle was a checkbox with the word "Snap" next to Fit, and
the vector art tab had its own "Grid" button for the same idea. Both
now share one square icon button, so snapping looks and works the
same wherever it exists.

- SnapToggle is a square toggle button with a magnet icon and no
  text. It lights up blue when snapping is on, like the other toggle
  buttons.
- The magnet is drawn with cubic curves instead of arcs, because the
  Pixi SVG parser draws arcs as jagged edges.
- The vector art tab drops its Grid button and uses the same
  SnapToggle. It still snaps to 8 px, the graph tabs to 24 px.
- SnapToggle accepts anything with setSnapping(on). The vector art
  canvas method is renamed from setSnap to setSnapping for that.
- Every tab exposes the button as __gm.<tab>.snapButton(). Modules
  06, 26 and 36 click through that hook instead of the label "Snap"
  plus 30 px.

Tests:
- ./check.sh: 129 files, 1903 tests (was 128 / 1897)

admin 7e5003b590 A test that waits for a deadline somebody guessed is waiting for the wrong thing, so it waits for the editor (#93)
game-maker / suite (push) Successful in 6m48s
The suite spent 88% of its step time asleep: 564 s of steps, 496 s of
them in sleep(n) - fixed spans estimated by hand and then copied from
step to step. That is why it was slow, and why it flickered.

The signal is afterFrames(count, timeout) in ui/render.ts, exposed as
__gm.afterFrames(). It wakes the loop itself, because an editor that
draws nothing would never redeem a promise of a frame, and it gives up
after a timeout instead of hanging the run. settle() in the harness
waits two drawn frames (~32 ms) instead of 150-300 ms and falls back to
sleep(150) when the hook is missing (an old build): silently not
waiting would make every later check a coin toss.

Every action goes through it now - click, doubleClick, wheel, drag,
dragAsset, press, typeText, select, mutate, undo, redo - and with that
about 550 sleep() calls behind those actions became redundant, helpers
that are nothing but a mutate in a coat included. What a frame cannot
answer got its own condition instead: waitUntil(expr), play()/stop()
waiting on __gm.state.mode rather than on 300 ms, saved() for the
autosave (the two hand-written polling loops sampled at 300 ms for
something that arrives after a second), and showTab() as a real tool -
47 places called evaluate("__gm.showTab(...)") raw, and 24 of them
waited for nothing at all and read the old panel.

564 s -> 243 s of step time, the waiting share 88% -> 76%. Three kinds
of wait were kept, and each one bit when it was taken away: loading
bytes (textures, fonts), game time that a repaint cannot stand in for
(time scale, shader and particle clocks, the live values a running
graph carries), and the inertia the scroll step measures on purpose.

Two things the new speed uncovered, both real: 25-animation read the
frame menu unfiltered and had frozen an incomplete list (the CI failure
on c990dbc), and 33-render-on-change measured idleness while the
autosave of the step before was still painting - it waits for
saveStatus to leave dirty/saving now, so it measures that nothing
happens any more instead of that it waited long enough.

adminandClaude Opus 5 3b039384c4 A search that ignores what a thing is called is no search, so the name wins (#43)
game-maker / suite (push) Failing after 10m23s
Typing "variable" into the node palette landed on `Run behavior`, because the
filter weighed label, type and description alike and then sorted by category.
`searchRank` in `src/ui/search.ts` now ranks a match: exact label or type, then
prefix, then label, then type, and only last a hit that lives in the
description alone. Category and alphabet order within a rank. The searchable
`Menu` uses the same function, so searching means the same thing everywhere.

The `+` menu grew to fifteen entries in declaration order. It is built in two
alphabetical groups now -- the types that go into a scene, then the ones that
stay in the library -- with a separator between them, the split `isPlaceableType`
already draws. `ASSET_TYPES` itself stays untouched: it is also the
serialisation and check order. A search flattens the groups and drops the lines.

Popups were capped at fixed heights (320 menu, 260 palette, 340 pickers) while
the canvas had room to spare. `Popup.roomFor()` measures its own chrome and
takes the window height minus a tenth at each end. Placement clamps
asymmetrically: the bottom margin is enforced, the top is only a budget, so a
menu anchored near the top stays at its button instead of being pushed off it.

`nodeUnder()` recomputed the node's face as `0 <= x <= w`, while the pointer events follow the
`hitArea`, which reaches `PORT_HIT_RADIUS` past the edge. An input port sits at exactly x = 0, so the
global point rounded back landed a hair outside: the drop counted as one on empty canvas, the node
palette opened and swallowed every later click – four checks of step 6 at once. `NodeView` now
answers from that same `hitArea`, and the step also checks that no palette is open.

rootandClaude Opus 5 c47fd5e4dc Console panel: capture console.*, timestamped lines, resizable (#50)
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.

rootandClaude Fable 5.1 e7d82bd1a9 State machines: asset, tab, State branch and Set state nodes (#51)
A state machine is an asset whose graph holds one `State` node per state
(no ports, name as title), edited in a new "State machine" tab that reuses
the graph canvas: right-click places "State n", snap toggle shared with the
Behavior tab via SnapToggle. `statemachine` is a value kind like texture
(port, literal node, variable, struct field, tagged list item).

Behaviors use it through `State branch` (one exec output per state) and
`Set state` (one exec input per state; the interpreter now hands `run` the
entry port). States live per behavior instance in NodeContext.states, with
no initial state. Ports derive from the inline picker or a wired
`State machine` literal; BehaviorLookup became GraphLookup with
behavior(id) and machine(id).

The Graph tab is labelled "Behavior" (key unchanged). Unit tests
(state-machine, kinds, catalog, ports), e2e step 26 and README added.

  the Windows test machine is gone and the only flaky check that lived on it is closed (#37).
- Removed `npm run preview`, undocumented and unused.
- Comments: wrong number in collider.test.ts (250 → 200), the "declarations used to…"
  history in listItems.ts and friends, the 24 px/28 contradiction, section banners in
  nodes/index.ts, node-catalog.test.ts and api/index.php, name paraphrases, and the stale
  step numbers in tools/e2e/11-…23- from the old global count.
- README: asset types include `animation`, kind order Number/Text/Boolean, tagged colour
  and texture items, 6/5 kinds, the `Texture` node, `./build.sh`, PROJECT_FORMAT_VERSION,
  and the file tree (kinds.ts, listItems.ts, propertyPorts.ts, Breadcrumb.ts, beads.ts,
  tools/assets/).
- tests/helpers.ts takes the duplicated `findObject` and `sceneWithCamera`.

Proof: ./check.sh 797 tests, full e2e ALL PASSED 633 checks against this bundle.

rootandClaude Opus 5 7c63c884ef Replace the five variable nodes with one Variables node
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.

rootandClaude Opus 5 854ae2e756 Add Get/Set properties nodes and a breadcrumb for opened sub-behaviors
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.

rootandClaude Opus 5 e9fa592078 Add the Variable node and show the variable name in node titles
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
now drive the hierarchy menu instead, including that its entry is disabled on template
content and on a placed container without raising a notice.

rootandClaude Opus 5 0dcb3b4432 Render through a desynchronized WebGL context by default
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.

Also adds the todo note graph-node-collapse-width.

rootandClaude Opus 5 8f92a06c84 Consolidate duplicated editor code, trim comments, refresh README
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, ...).

rootandClaude Opus 5 1e2285c545 Let a graph node collapse to its title bar
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.

root 4b47741fac Graph: optionales Grid-Snapping beim Ziehen von Nodes
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.

rootandClaude Opus 5 4b0919a224 Let a link be hidden, and shown again by selecting either end
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.

root e0d43e12aa Pan with the middle button, select several nodes, and fit properly
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.

root 14562cf157 Keep the dragged edge on screen while the palette picks its node
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.

root ebad3fd530 Make an edge drag say where it will land, and offer nodes when it lands nowhere
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.

rootandClaude Opus 5 4d84231b9f Trim needless comments and fix the picker width
Remove comments that only restate the code, keeping the section banners
and the notes that carry a reason, a measured fact or an external
contract.

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.

rootandClaude Opus 5 f16801aef3 Add a decimals option, fix dropdown overflow and the texture filter
- 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.

rootandClaude Opus 5 15ffcd5739 Left-align menu entries, add a Dropdown field, scrollable and searchable menus
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.

rootandClaude Opus 5 d54a620ebd Add ESLint and Prettier, and close the node test gaps
Tooling:
- Prettier as the single formatting authority (110 columns, single quotes,
  measured against the existing style); Markdown excluded because table-cell
  padding turns the README glossary into 1000-character lines.
- Type-aware ESLint ending in eslint-config-prettier, so a rule always means
  "this is a bug", never "this looks different".
- .editorconfig and an `npm run check` that runs typecheck, lint, format and
  tests in one go.

Findings fixed on the first run: three more duplicate imports, four
String(unknown) calls (parameter types narrowed instead of casts), two dead
initialisers, two redundant casts, a console.log for a real error. Two
warnings were false here and are disabled with a reason in place.

Tests 132 -> 269:
- node-catalog.test.ts covers every node with a run(), with a guard that fails
  when a new node has no row.
- behavior-events.test.ts covers the ten event nodes through a running World,
  checking timing rather than existence.
- Input's state machine (press/release/releaseAll) is reachable without DOM
  events now; the DOM handlers are thin adapters.

Compare fell back to == without a configured operator although the schema
default is <; aligned.
