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. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
