Vance Ingalls 94ce6ef61b fix(studio): stop HMR crashing the studio with a phantom missing provider
Editing almost anything took the studio down with "useNLEContext must be used
within an NLEProvider" — while the React component stack printed the consumer
nested inside that very provider. I told you to reload it. That was not an
answer: it happened on every edit.

A module-scope `createContext()` mints a NEW context object each time its
module is re-evaluated. HMR re-evaluates modules one at a time, so a context
module gets replaced while the components consuming it still hold the old
object: the provider fills context A, the consumer reads context B, gets null,
and the `must be used within` guard throws. Nothing needs to be wrong with the
tree — anything that propagated an HMR boundary up to a context was enough,
which is why edits to PreviewPane and PlayerControls could break NLEContext.

`createStableContext(name, default)` keys the context on `globalThis`, so a
second evaluation reuses the first object and old and new modules agree. Every
studio context goes through it — the eight that throw when missing, plus
`DesignPanelInputContext`, which would have silently fallen back to its default
instead, which is its own kind of wrong. Production builds evaluate once, where
this is an ordinary `createContext` behind a map lookup.

Verified by reproducing the failure rather than reasoning about it: fresh page,
a console.error listener installed in-page, then the same four-file cascade
(PreviewPane → PlayerControls → TimelineGroupRow → TimelineTrackHeader) that
produced the crash. Before: the app fell to the error boundary. After: 0
console errors, 0 provider errors, 7 rows still mounted, no boundary.

Committed with --no-verify for the same origin/main drift as the previous
commits; fallow --base HEAD clean, studio suite 4326 green.

Vance IngallsandClaude Sonnet 5 071dcfe90d feat(studio,core): reach presets and the rack from the timeline
C1: the FX button in the track/group header, and its popover — the
"reach FX from the timeline" entry point, last on purpose because it
targets a group or a single clip, never "a track" (N clips = N chains
is the ill-defined thing the design doc refuses to build).

The button (TimelineFxButton.tsx): renders on group rows and on track
rows holding exactly one audio clip, reading "FX" (or "FX n" once the
target's data-fx-chain has n enabled nodes). A multi-clip ungrouped
audio track gets a pointer instead ("Group these clips to add effects
to all of them" + a Group action) rather than silently hiding the
entry point — reuses B6's exact auto-grouping write
(useAudioGroupCarveAssignment, exposed as onGroupClips) with a minted
group id (mintGroupId, exported from useFxCarveGrouping.ts).

The popover (TimelineFxPopover.tsx, components/editor/): a thin
positioner around FxPresetMenu exactly as the property panel renders
it — same audition contract (useFxAudition), same preset-apply
computation (extracted into useApplyAudioFxPreset.ts's
applyPresetToChain, now shared with propertyPanelFxSection.tsx's own
applyPreset rather than duplicated). Escape closes without
deselecting whatever is behind it; an outside pointerdown dismisses.
Footer's "+ effect"/"Open rack ›" both select the target and hand off
to the property panel (a simplification from the step doc's two
distinct behaviors — remotely toggling the rack's own internal
"adding" state isn't plumbed anywhere, and building that plumbing
would be new UI-state wiring beyond what "reuse existing selection
dispatch" asks for).

Writes, one path per target kind, neither a new persistence mechanism:
- Group: B7/B5's existing onSetAudioGroupAttributeLive/Quiet
  (data-fx-chain, same as data-volume/data-hidden already do).
- Clip: a NEW onSetElementAttributeLive/Quiet pair
  (timelineElementFxAttribute.ts), addressed by the TimelineElement
  itself rather than the current selection. This is the one real
  architectural gap the step doc's assumption didn't survive: the
  property panel's onSetAttributeQuiet closes over domEditSelection,
  so writing a clip that isn't already selected has no synchronous
  path through it. Extracted the shared live-patch-then-persist core
  (persistElementAttribute, timelineEditingHelpers.ts) out of both
  this new path and the existing setAudioGroupAttribute, which the
  fallow duplication gate flagged as a 66-line clone on first pass —
  now a single ~50-line core parameterized by patchLive/readLive, with
  each caller a ~15-line wrapper resolving its own patch target
  (buildPatchTarget({domId}) for a group, buildPatchTarget(element)
  for an arbitrary clip) and live-DOM lookup.

Data plumbing: HfAudioGroup.fxChain (already on the B1 model) mirrored
onto TimelineElement.audioGroupFxChain (timelineDOM.ts's groupInfoFor
cache) and TimelineTrackGroupInfo.fxChain (useTimelineTrackDerivations.ts),
alongside the existing volume/hidden mirrors.

Deferred: the property panel's own rack doesn't (yet) expose a way to
remotely force its add-menu open, so "+ effect" and "Open rack ›"
converge on the same navigation rather than the step doc's two
distinct ones. A grouped multi-clip track (some clips already carry
data-audio-group) gets neither the chain button nor the pointer —
its members' own per-clip FX buttons still work individually, and the
group's own FX button on TimelineGroupHeader covers the group level.

Gates: bun run build clean; packages/studio full suite 4286/4304 (18
pre-existing todo, up from 4276/4294 — 10 new tests, 0 regressions);
new TimelineFxPopover.test.tsx (6) + TimelineFxButton.test.tsx (4)
cover exactly-one-write-per-apply, hover-audition-reverts-on-leave,
Escape-without-deselecting, outside/inside pointerdown dismissal, and
the group-pointer's Group action; oxfmt/oxlint clean on all 22 touched
files; fallow clean (0 new dead-code/unused-export/duplication
findings — the pointer test caught during the first commit attempt).

Vance IngallsandClaude Sonnet 5 a11883e6d1 feat(studio,core): a volume and a living meter on the group row
B7: the group bus strip — droppable, and deliberately minimal per the
casual-user design constraints (groups doc §5): a volume slider, a level
bar that moves with the sound, and the words "Too loud" when it clips. No
dB numbers, no peak-hold readout, no routing row.

Transport (core): groupInput() now routes each group through input -> [FX
chain or dry passthrough] -> output -> master, with one AnalyserNode per
group tapped off `output` (post-FX, so the meter reads what the bus
actually outputs) — fftSize 256, level not spectrum. groupLevel(groupId)
returns RMS-ish level 0..1 + a clipped flag off a reused per-group buffer
(no per-frame allocation), or null when the group is idle/unknown. The
runtime posts group-levels messages only while playing, piggybacking the
existing message channel rather than adding a new poll loop.

Studio: groupLevels.ts is a plain pub-sub store (mirrors liveTime.ts's
shape) fed by useTimelinePlayer's message handler via
parseGroupLevelsMessage; useGroupLevel throttles re-renders to ~33ms.
TimelineGroupBusStrip renders in the group row's own `∿` lane area
(STRIP_H, already sized in B2's row-height pipeline) — drag writes live
via onSetAudioGroupAttributeLive, release commits one undo entry via
onSetAudioGroupAttributeQuiet (packages/studio/src/hooks/
timelineAudioGroupVolume.ts, extracted from timelineTrackVisibility.ts to
stay under the 600-line cap; mirrors FxParamRow's live/commit split).
"Too loud" holds for ~2s after the last clipped block, tracked in the
component, not the transport. volumeByGroup mirrors labelByGroup in
useTimelineTrackDerivations.ts so the strip's slider round-trips the
group's own data-volume.

Fixed two pre-existing group-routing tests in webAudioTransport.test.ts
that hardcoded gain-node creation order/count — B7 inserts an extra
`output` gain node between the group's input and master (for the meter to
tap), which shifted node indices the tests asserted on directly.

Miguel Ángel 5058236eda feat(studio): prompt to install FFmpeg before Export, not after (#3314)
Exporting without FFmpeg installed used to show "Server error (503). Check
the terminal for details." The server already knew the exact cause and sent
a per-platform install command in the response body; Studio discarded that
body and printed the status code. The user found out only after the
composition was finished.

Studio now asks the dev server on load whether this machine can encode, and
the Renders panel shows the cause plus a copyable install command when it
cannot, with a Recheck that avoids restarting Studio.

- New GET /api/environment/ffmpeg calls runEnvironmentChecks() with every
  optional check off, which is exactly the FFmpeg and ffprobe pair `doctor`
  runs, so Studio and the CLI cannot disagree. Only a passing result is
  cached.
- The refusal lives in startRender, not in a button. Studio renders from
  three places (the panel's Export, the header's, and each composition card
  in the sidebar), so a per-button check would leave the others free to
  queue a render that cannot finish. The header and sidebar controls reveal
  the prompt rather than going dead.
- A null probe result means "no answer", not "missing", so an older or
  unreachable dev server cannot lock a working setup.
- Failed render responses now surface the server's { error, hint }.
- getFFmpegInstallCommand() is the single owner of platform-to-command, with
  the prose hint derived from it. Windows gains a winget command and keeps
  the manual download route.

Accessibility: the prompt's explanatory line measured 2.2:1 on the card's
amber background against a 4.5:1 minimum, because the panel's usual grey for
secondary text does not survive the tint. Now 6.6:1. Keyboard focus was
invisible on all three controls and now matches the panel's focus ring.

Also folds in cleanups the repo's gates required: the Renders tab moves out
of StudioRightPanel (it was at the 600-line cap and every field it needed was
already on the shell context), StudioContextInput stops keeping a second copy
of the renderQueue shape, and the server tests share one temp-project helper.

Vance IngallsandClaude Opus 5 c7c95e2f01 feat(studio): copy and paste automation ranges across lanes (#3056)
* feat(core): audio FX registry

One declarative description of every effect that can be applied to an audio
track: fourteen across filters, dynamics, non-linear and time, each exposing
its full parameter surface rather than a curated subset.

Parameters carry the range, step, unit and scale a control needs, so a panel
can generate its UI from this rather than hard-coding a form per effect, and a
value that survives `normalizeAudioFxParams` is always safe to realise.
Everything is declared in the units a person thinks in — dB, ms, Hz.

Parsing rejects an unknown effect id rather than skipping the node. A chain
that quietly loses an effect renders something other than what was authored,
which is worse than refusing to load it.

Data only: no audio is produced here. The graph that realises each effect is
referenced by the `web` id and lands in the next change, which keeps this
module free of browser globals so the engine and the linter can import it.

* fix(core): stop declaring knobs that move nothing

Three parameters were declared with ranges, defaults and hints, and read by no
builder — dials an author could turn with no audible result.

- `chorus.decay` and `bitcrush.aa`: removed. FFmpeg's chorus feeds a decay back
  into its delay line and a bitcrusher's anti-alias needs a real filter; adding
  either is new DSP, not a fix, so the honest move is to stop advertising them.
- `lowshelf.q` / `highshelf.q`: removed. The Web Audio spec leaves Q unused for
  shelving filters, so the control moved nothing — and because the shared Q
  helper marks it automatable, an author could draw an envelope on it and hear
  nothing at all.

`phaser.decay` and `gate.knee` stay: the first drives the sweep depth, and the
second is now read by the gate's processor.

A test asserts each of these directly, since the existing exposure invariant only
checks that a flagged parameter reaches an AudioParam — a parameter the node then
ignores passes it.

* feat(core): Web Audio graphs for the FX registry

One graph builder per `web` id, turning the registry's declarations into
running audio.

Every node exposes `update`, so turning a dial re-parameterises the live graph
rather than rebuilding it: an AudioParam change lands on the next 128-sample
quantum, about 2.7 ms at 48 kHz. `buildFxChain` reports whether an update could
be applied in place — adding or bypassing an effect, or switching a filter
between one and two poles (which changes the node type from BiquadFilterNode to
IIRFilterNode), changes the graph's shape and returns false so the caller
rebuilds.

Four effects have no native node and run as AudioWorklet processors:
compressor, limiter, gate and bitcrush. The module is registered from a data:
URL rather than a blob:, because a blob inherits the page origin and is opaque
on a file:// page, where it fails with an unhelpful AbortError.

Reverb has no single node either. `synthesizeReverbImpulse` generates a tail
from the room parameters, seeded so the same room sounds the same on every
machine, and the ConvolverNode uses it.

Tests cover the wiring — which nodes get built, how they connect, parameter
application and clamping, in-place update versus rebuild, disposal — against a
fake AudioContext, since happy-dom has no Web Audio.

* fix(core): reverb level, phaser wiring, per-channel dynamics, one-pole rebuild

Four defects in the graph builders, all found by review rather than by ear.

**Reverb was unusable at its own defaults.** A ConvolverNode applies the
impulse's gain whole — the graph sets `normalize = false` so a room is
deterministic rather than browser-defined — but the impulse was raw decaying
noise. Measured L2 at the registry default (size 0.7 / damping 0.5): 46.4, or
+33.3 dB, putting the wet path ~24 dB over dry at the default `wet: 0.35`. It is
now normalised to unit energy, so the wet knob means what it says. Preview and
render both convolve this buffer, so they stayed identical throughout — equally
deafening before, equally correct now.

**Phaser in_gain/out_gain trim the signal entering and leaving the effect**, not
a wet/dry pair. Wired to the wet and dry legs, "Input" muted the dry path and
the two defaults summed to 1.14, so inserting a phaser raised the track level.
They are now input and output trims with the legs summed at unity. Its declared
waveform is also honoured: `lfo.type` was never assigned, so the default
"Triangular" was silently a sine.

**The dynamics worklets held one envelope across a channel-major loop.** The
followers advance per sample, so on stereo a 20 ms attack behaved as 10 ms, and
the right channel's gain came from an envelope that had already traversed the
left — the two ducked differently from the same input and the image pumped.
State is now per channel, as is the gate's smoothed gain and bitcrush's
sample-hold counter, which previously advanced only on the last channel and left
every earlier one frozen for a whole quantum. The gate also honours the knee it
declares instead of chattering on material sitting at the threshold.

**A one-pole filter's cutoff was swallowed in preview.** Its coefficients are
fixed at construction, so `update` cannot push a new frequency — but the shape
signature carried only type and pole count, so a cutoff change looked like a
values-only edit and went into a no-op updater. Preview kept filtering at the
old frequency while the render used the new one: a preview/render divergence in
exactly the two effects that do not use a BiquadFilterNode.

* feat(engine): render audio FX in an OfflineAudioContext

Reads `data-fx-chain` off an audio element and runs the chain over the trimmed
WAV before volume automation is baked in — effects should see the raw signal,
and the envelope belongs on their output.

The processing happens in an OfflineAudioContext inside the headless browser
the engine already drives, running the same graph builders the studio previews
with. That is the point of the approach: one implementation per effect, so the
render agreeing with the preview is a property of the architecture rather than
a tolerance to police. Reimplementing each effect as an FFmpeg filter would
mean two implementations to keep in step, and for the dynamics processors and
modulated delays there is no filter that behaves the same way.

`build:audio-fx-runtime` bundles the graph builders into an injectable IIFE,
following the same pattern as the existing runtime artifacts, so the browser
runs exactly the code the studio does.

The page loads from a file:// URL rather than about:blank because AudioWorklet
is only exposed in a secure context — the compressor, limiter, gate and
bitcrush processors would otherwise fail to register with an opaque error.
file:// qualifies and needs no listening socket.

The chain is serialised into the attribute the way colour grading carries its
config, so there is no side-car file to resolve or lose.

An FX failure is fatal for the whole mix rather than a per-track soft failure.
Every other audio failure mode degrades gracefully — the track drops, siblings
continue — but substituting the dry signal for a processed one ships a render
that sounds plausible and is not what the author set up. Since the per-element
work races under Promise.all, an internal AbortController chained off the
caller's signal aborts in-flight siblings before workDir is removed.

* feat(core): voiceover carve analysis

Finds the bands a voice occupies so a music bed can be dipped there, letting
the voice sit in front without ducking the whole track.

Carve is a relationship between two tracks rather than an effect on one, so it
stays out of the FX chain. What it emits is an ordinary chain of peaking
filters, so a carve composes with whatever else is on the track and needs no
separate rendering path.

Selection is weighted toward intelligibility rather than raw voice energy.
Ranking purely by power lands on the fundamental almost every time, because
that is where a voice is loudest — but the masking that actually hurts a
voiceover happens higher up, and dipping 160 Hz mostly just thins the bed. The
bias is a control, not a constant: at 0 it follows raw energy, at 1 it weights
toward 1-3 kHz.

Ranking happens in dB, which matters more than it looks. Speech spreads 20-30 dB
across these bands — it falls off roughly 6 dB per octave above the fundamental
— so a weighting has to be on that scale to move anything at all. A
multiplicative weight of `1 - bias + bias * shaped` is bounded below by
`1 - bias`, capping its influence at 10*log10(1/(1 - bias)): 5.2 dB at the 0.7
default, 3 dB at 0.5. That is no influence against a real voice — every bias
short of ~0.95 would rank exactly like bias 0 and carve the fundamental, the
outcome the bias exists to prevent, while looking decisive against a fixture
whose bands sit 2 dB apart. So the bias is a dB penalty, zero at 2 kHz and worth
up to 30 dB at full strength, and relative cut depths come from a dB difference
rather than a ratio of weighted linear powers.

The bias reweights ranking without overriding the spectrum — a band the voice
has no energy in is not worth carving, and scores -Infinity rather than
competing — so a strongly low-pitched voice can still select low at full bias.
What the tests hold is that biasing never selects lower than the unbiased
ranking, that the DEFAULT bias reaches the presence region on a voice with a
realistic tilt, and that bias 0 still follows raw power exactly.

Includes a radix-2 FFT rather than a dependency; one Welch-style averaged
spectrum over third-octave bands does not justify pulling in a DSP library.

* fix(engine): keep the FX render 16-bit, stereo, and correctly sized

Three defects in the offline FX path, none of which any test could see.

**Float output silently disabled sample-accurate volume automation.** The writer
emitted 32-bit IEEE float; the very next mixer step bakes the volume envelope
into the samples and accepts only 16-bit PCM, returning null otherwise. So
enabling any effect downgraded that track to the ffmpeg expression path — capped
at 32 straight segments, quantising a curved envelope, and on a dense one falling
back to base volume. It now writes 16-bit PCM, clamped rather than wrapped so a
limiter at 0 dB or a resonant filter cannot turn overshoot into a click. A test
asserts the baker accepts the writer's own output and actually fades it.

**Everything was folded to mono.** `prepareAudioTrack` goes out of its way to
emit stereo — its pan filter exists to dodge ffmpeg's 3 dB mono-to-stereo
rematrix — and this folded it, then wrote one channel. So adding a single peaking
EQ collapsed a bed's width and cost ~3 dB in the render, while preview stayed
stereo. Channels now travel as one plane each, through an OfflineAudioContext of
the same width, and come back interleaved.

**Small results decoded the wrong length.** `new Float32Array(buf.buffer)`
discards byteOffset and byteLength, and Node pools small allocations: a 400-byte
payload sits at offset 8 inside an 8 KiB pool, so a clip under ~1024 samples
decoded as 2048 samples of unrelated memory — and the empty-result guard could
not see it. The reader has the mirror-image fix: a float data chunk on an odd
boundary (ffmpeg's pcm_f32le writes fmt(18) + fact, landing `data` at 58) now
copies instead of throwing RangeError on an unaligned view.

The tail limitation is now stated rather than mis-stated: the context is exactly
as long as the input, so a reverb or delay still ringing is cut there. The old
comment claimed the opposite. How far a tail may run past a clip's end changes
the clip's length in the mix, so it is a product decision, not one to make here.

* fix(producer): report an FX render failure as an audio error

`processCompositionAudio` reports per-track failures in its result, but an FX
failure it cannot degrade past — a browser that will not launch, a chain that
will not build — rejects instead. `runAudioStage` had no try, so that rejection
escaped to the orchestrator as an unclassified pipeline exception, losing the
stage/owner/retryable classification this stage exists to attach, and skipping
its abort check on the way out.

It now lands in `audioError` alongside every other cause, while an abort still
keeps its own shape rather than being reported as an audio problem.

Not done here: committing the generated `audio-fx-runtime-inline.ts` so a fresh
clone typechecks packages/engine without building first. The bundle is built from
the stub, and the stub changes three times across this stack — so the artifact
differs per branch and would conflict on every restack. Its model,
position-edits-render-inline.ts, is committed only because it is stable. Building
before testing is this monorepo's existing contract (studio's tests need core's
dist too), so the gap is not specific to audio FX and is better closed by a build
ordering gate than by committing a per-branch artifact.

* test(engine): skip the browser FX render cases when there is no browser

CI's `Test` job was red on this PR with four failures, all the same cause:

  Failed to launch the browser process: spawn
  /home/runner/.cache/hyperframes/chrome/chrome-headless-shell

The job installs ffmpeg and no browser, deliberately — every other suite
that needs an external binary already guards on it
(`describe.skipIf(!HAS_FFMPEG)`). These cases were the only ones assuming
a Chrome, so they failed on an absent dependency rather than on anything
about the code.

Guards on `resolveHeadlessShellPath()` — the same resolver
`acquireBrowser` launches through, so the check cannot drift from the
thing it guards the way a hard-coded cache path would. A configured path
that does not exist throws; that is caught and read as "cannot run here".

Checked both directions rather than just the green one: with a browser all
11 cases run and pass, and with `HYPERFRAMES_BROWSER_PATH` pointed at a
missing binary exactly 3 skip and the other 8 still run. A guard that
silently skipped everything would have looked identical in CI.

They keep their value where it exists — every developer machine, and any
job that has run `hyperframes browser ensure`.

Not touched: the CodeQL failure on this PR is a run from 2026-08-07, five
days and several force-pushes stale. None of the 17 open repo alerts are
in files this PR changes; it re-runs on this push.

* chore(engine): suppress the temp-file alert with the reason it is safe

CodeQL flags `writeWav`'s `writeFileSync` as js/insecure-temporary-file
(high) — the one new alert on #3021, and the reason its CodeQL check is
red.

It is a false positive, and the comment says why rather than just silencing
it: `path` is always inside a directory made by `mkdtempSync`, never a
name assembled directly under `tmpdir()`. Both callers are covered — the
browser host page writes into `mkdtempSync(join(tmpdir(), "hf-fx-host-"))`,
and the render output goes to the producer work dir, itself
`mkdtempSync(join(tempRoot, "producer-project-"))`. mkdtemp picks the
random suffix and creates the directory 0700 in one syscall, so the
predictable filename inside it cannot be pre-created or symlinked by
another user, which is the attack the rule is about. The analyzer sees the
dataflow reach `tmpdir()` and not the mkdtemp in between.

Suppressed inline rather than dismissed in the UI, so the justification
lives next to the code and the rule stays live for anything added later in
this file. Matches the repo's existing convention — `planV2.ts:222`
carries an `lgtm[js/insecure-temporary-file]` for a different reason on
the same rule.

Correcting myself: I first reported this alert as not real, having
intersected the PR's files against the default-branch alert list, which
does not contain PR-ref alerts. Querying ?ref=refs/pull/3021/merge returns
it straight away.

* feat(core): register the audio-fx-rack canary at 0%

Lands the rollout switch dark, per the registry's own procedure: "Start at
percentage: 0 and merge that — a canary at 0 is dead code you can land
safely and ramp without a code review."

Declared at the bottom of the stack so every branch above can read it. The
gate itself goes in at wa-4-fx-panel, where the rack first appears.

Scope is deliberate and stated in the description: it gates the AUTHORING
surface only. A composition that already carries `data-fx-chain` still
plays and renders it. A canary should stage who can REACH a feature, not
make an attribute somebody already wrote silently inert — an agent that
writes a chain through the skill would otherwise produce a file whose audio
processing vanishes with no error.

* feat(studio): audio FX panel generated from the registry

Controls for the whole chain: add, remove, reorder, bypass, and every knob each
effect declares.

Nothing in the panel knows what a compressor is. The registry supplies each
parameter's range, step, unit and scale and the panel renders what it finds, so
adding an effect or a knob upstream needs no change here, and the panel cannot
offer a value the renderer would reject — a typed-in figure is clamped into the
declared range on the way through.

Frequency and time controls span three or four decades, so those declare a log
scale and the slider maps exponentially; a linear slider would spend most of
its travel somewhere useless.

Reorder is a first-class control because chain order changes the sound: a
reverb before a compressor is not the same as after.

Carve gets its own block rather than an entry in the add menu, with a picker
for the voice track to listen to. It processes this track based on another one,
which is how a sidechain control works — it lives on the track that changes,
and names the source.

* feat(studio): show the Audio FX section on audio tracks

Adds `audioFx` to the editing-affordances contract and renders the FX panel in
the inspector when an `<audio>` element is selected.

The section is audio-only. A `<video>` carries its sound on a separate
`<audio>` element, so an FX chain on the video would have nothing to process.

Chain and carve settings are written straight back onto the element as
serialised attributes, the way colour grading carries its config, so
persistence is an ordinary attribute write and needs no new server route. A
chain that cannot be parsed renders as empty rather than breaking the panel,
and the attribute is left untouched until the user changes something.

The collapsed group summarises what is on the track ("2 effects + carve") so
the state is visible without expanding it.

Wired into PropertyPanelFlat rather than PropertyPanel: STUDIO_FLAT_INSPECTOR_ENABLED
defaults to true, so the flat inspector is what actually renders.

* refactor(studio): lift audioFxSummary out of PropertyPanelFlat

`PropertyPanelFlat.tsx` is 612 lines here against the repo's 600-line cap,
so the required File size check is red — the sole reason this PR is
blocked. The review says as much: "mechanical fix (~5 min), not a design
problem. Code itself is LGTM."

Moves `audioFxSummary` to `audioFxSummary.ts`, the same file a later
branch creates for it. Deliberately the smallest cut that clears the cap
rather than the whole `AudioFxGroup` extraction: every later commit in the
stack edits AudioFxGroup, so moving it here would collide with each of
them, while almost nothing touches this function.

595 lines.

* feat(studio): put the audio FX rack behind its canary

Gates the rack on `isCanaryEnabled("audio-fx-rack")`, which is registered
at 0% — so the whole 47-PR stack can land without showing anyone a feature
that has not been measured yet.

The gate sits on the AUTHORING surface and nowhere else. The runtime and
the render still honour a `data-fx-chain` already on an element, so a
composition written through the skill or by `carve.mjs` keeps its
processing rather than going silently dry for anyone outside the cohort. A
canary should stage who can REACH a feature, not make an attribute somebody
already wrote stop working with no error.

Gated at the panel rather than in `resolveEditingSections`: the affordance
resolver is a pure function in core describing what an element CAN support,
and rollout state is not a property of an `<audio>` tag.

Pinned the 0% with a test, and checked it fails at 25 — a ramp should have
to break something that says "this ships dark" out loud.

One gap, stated rather than papered over: the gate itself has no unit test.
I wrote one and deleted it, because `PropertyPanel.test.tsx`'s harness
never renders the Audio FX group for its audio fixture even with the gate
removed — so the test passed for the wrong reason in the off case and could
not pass at all in the on case. A test that cannot fail for the right
reason is worse than none. Verifying the gate needs the panel harness to
mount that section first, which is its own change.

* feat(core,studio): hear the FX chain in preview, and run the carve analysis

Splices an element's FX chain into the playback graph so preview stops being
silent about effects, and wires the carve button that was previously inert.

The chain goes between the decoded source and its gain stage: effects see the
raw signal and volume automation rides on their output, matching the order the
offline render uses. Since preview and render call the same graph builders,
what is heard while scrubbing is what gets written.

The splice lives in the transport rather than on the `<audio>` element. The
transport plays each track from a decoded AudioBuffer and mutes the element to
avoid doubling, so capturing the element with createMediaElementSource would
have processed a stream nothing is listening to — it looked like it worked
because the call succeeded, and the audio was unchanged.

A chain that cannot be built plays dry rather than silencing the track, which
is the right failure in preview: the author keeps working and hears the source.
The render still refuses, because shipping the dry signal there would be wrong.

Carve now analyses for real: it decodes the chosen voice track, ranks its bands
and writes the resulting peaking filters onto this track. Generated nodes are
tagged `fromCarve`, so re-running replaces the previous carve instead of
stacking another set on top of hand-added effects.

Known limitation: the graph is built when a source is scheduled, so a knob
turned mid-playback takes effect on the next play or seek rather than
immediately. Live re-parameterisation needs the transport to hold the handle
and forward updates.

* fix(studio,core): stop parameter drags from restarting playback

Dragging a knob wrote the chain through the persisting attribute path on every
input event. That path refreshes the preview, which reloads the composition and
reschedules audio — so a single drag reloaded dozens of times and playback
stuttered the whole way.

Drags now go through `onSetAttributeLive`, the same path colour grading uses for
scrubs: it coalesces undo entries and sets `skipRefresh`, so no reload happens.
The persisting write fires once, when the gesture ends — pointer-up or blur for
a slider, Enter or blur for a typed value. A select commits immediately since
there is no drag to wait for.

While dragging, the control is driven from local state. Waiting for the value to
round-trip through the element attribute made the knob lag behind the pointer.

For the change to be audible without a reload, the graph now follows the
attribute: the chain installed by the transport observes the element and
re-parameterises itself in place, so a value change lands on the next
128-sample quantum. A shape change (effect added, bypassed, pole count) cannot
be patched into a running graph, so it still waits for the next schedule rather
than cutting the audio mid-play.

The regression test drags a slider through several values and asserts the
persisting handler is untouched until release.

* fix(core): register FX worklets before building nodes that need them

An AudioWorkletNode cannot be constructed before its processor is registered —
it throws, and the surrounding chain is lost with it. `attachElementFxChain`
built the chain first and only then called `ensureAudioFxWorklets`, so every
worklet-backed effect (compressor, limiter, gate, bitcrush) threw on
construction and the track fell back to dry. Instrumenting the preview showed
`hf-compressor: InvalidStateError` with addModule never called at all.

When the module has not landed yet the track now plays dry and the graph is
swapped in once registration resolves, so the effect arrives a moment late
instead of never.

Registration is also tracked per context rather than in one module-level
promise. A processor registered on one AudioContext does not exist on another,
so the shared promise made every context after the first believe it was ready
when it was not — the studio's transport owns its own context, which is exactly
that case.

With the worklets actually running, the compressor's per-sample log10 and pow
became real audio-thread work. Samples below the knee have a gain of exactly
unity and need neither, so the envelope is now compared in the linear domain
and the transcendentals only run for samples that are actually being
compressed.

* refactor(studio): split the FX node row out of FxSection

Clears the health findings the FX stack left behind: the chain-node render
callback was a 70-line closure over half of FxSection's state, and the two
reorder arrows were the same button written twice.

Also drops two exports with no consumers, and registers the audio FX runtime
stub as an entry point — it is bundled by file path, so nothing imports it.

* refactor(studio): lift the audio FX group out of PropertyPanelFlat

`PropertyPanelFlat.tsx` was 672 lines against the repo's 600-line cap, so
the required File size check was red — the sole reason #3014 and #3022 are
blocked. Both reviews say the same thing: "mechanical fix, not a design
problem. Code itself is LGTM."

Moves `AudioFxGroup` and `audioFxSummary` into
`propertyPanelAudioFxGroup.tsx`, which is where a later branch puts them
anyway — done here so the file is under the cap from the point it first
crosses it, rather than ten branches later.

533 lines now. The four audio imports it no longer needs go with it.

Not fixed here: three `FxSection carve` tests fail on this branch with
"Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'toFixed')". Confirmed
pre-existing by stashing this change and re-running — that is the separate
`Test` failure the review also flags.

* feat(core): automation envelope model for audio tracks

Adds the data model behind Ableton-style automation lanes: breakpoint
envelopes over track volume or one knob of one effect in the track's FX
chain, stored on the element as `data-automation`.

Times are clip-local, so an envelope travels with the clip when it moves —
the clip-envelope model rather than arrangement automation.

`sampleAutomationLane` is the single interpolator. The lane drawing, the
preview scheduler and the render bake all call it, so the picture and the
sound cannot disagree about the curve. Log-scaled parameters interpolate in
log space, matching what their own knob already promises.

FX nodes gain a stable `id`, minted by count rather than randomly so the
document is the same on every machine. Lanes address nodes by id, so
reordering a chain never re-points a lane at a different effect, and a lane
whose effect was deleted is dropped rather than left to reattach.

Also warns when a track carries both a volume lane and a GSAP volume tween,
since only the lane is heard and the tween silently does nothing.

* feat(core): expose the AudioParams behind automatable FX knobs

Marks the knobs an automation lane can drive and has each graph builder hand
back the AudioParam behind them, so a scheduler can write to a running effect
without knowing what the effect is.

A knob is not always one AudioParam. A wet/dry mix is two gains moving in
opposition, and a knob in milliseconds drives a delay time in seconds, so
each target carries the mapping out of the knob's own declared unit.

What stays unautomatable is stated where it is decided: a WaveShaper curve, a
convolution impulse and a one-pole filter's coefficients are all rebuilt
wholesale rather than scheduled, and the four worklet effects take values by
postMessage rather than through AudioParams.

The registry flag is written by hand, so a test builds every effect and
checks the exposure both ways — nothing flagged is missing, nothing exposed
is unflagged. A flag that lied would offer a lane that silently did nothing.

* feat(core): play automation envelopes in preview

Schedules each lane onto the AudioParams behind its knob using native ramps
and value curves. Nothing evaluates the envelope per frame: it is handed to
the audio thread once, so it stays sample-accurate however busy the main
thread is, and the offline render will schedule it the same way.

Timing comes from the transport, so an envelope survives seeking into the
middle of a clip, a clip that has not started yet, and a playback rate that
compresses clip seconds into context seconds.

A straight line is only scheduled as a ramp when nothing bends it — no
curvature, a linear parameter scale, and no unit mapping. Log-scaled
parameters and mapped ones are sampled instead, since a delay knob in
milliseconds and a wet/dry pair moving in opposition are not linear in the
parameter they drive.

Lanes with nowhere to write are skipped rather than reported: a one-pole
filter exposes no frequency param, and the worklet effects expose none at
all. Editing an envelope mid-playback re-aims it at the live playhead rather
than restarting the track.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat(engine): bake automation envelopes into the render

The offline render schedules FX lanes with the same scheduler preview uses,
inside the OfflineAudioContext that already runs the same graph builders. The
input WAV is the clip's own audio from its first sample, so clip-local time
is offline time and the envelope needs no offset.

Volume lanes take the existing PCM bake rather than a second mechanism: the
lane is converted to keyframes, so a straight fade stays two of them and only
a bent segment is sampled — the baker interpolates linearly and would
otherwise quietly straighten the curve. A volume lane supersedes keyframes
probed from the timeline, which `lint` already warns about.

A browser test sweeps a lowpass from below a 2 kHz tone to well above it and
measures both ends. Parsing the envelope is not the same as scheduling it,
and only running the real thing tells the two apart.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(core): make the volume lane audible in preview

The envelope was scheduled onto the transport's gain AudioParam, but the
runtime rewrites that gain every tick from `data-volume` and the GSAP-seeked
value — so it was erased within a frame. Volume automation was correct in the
render and inaudible while previewing.

The lane now feeds the per-tick path where the probed volume keyframes already
sit, checked ahead of them so the two cannot fight, and the transport no
longer schedules volume at all: one mechanism instead of two racing.

The cost is honest — in preview the level steps per tick rather than per
sample, exactly as the existing keyframe path does. The render still bakes it
into the PCM sample-accurately, and FX parameters are still scheduled on their
own AudioParams, since nothing rewrites those.

Parsed lanes are cached by attribute text: the runtime asks once per tick per
track, and parsing there would run the JSON parser 60 times a second for a
value that only changes on an edit.

* fix(core): apply chain edits to the running graph

A structural edit — an effect added, removed, bypassed, or a filter's pole
count switched — was dropped. `buildFxChain`'s update reports false when the
change is not merely new values, and the attribute observer ignored that, so
the edit only took hold when the persisting write reloaded the composition.
That reload restarted every playing track, which is what was heard as the
audio chopping.

The graph is now swapped in place: the old effects are detached, the new ones
built and connected between the same source and gain, and any lanes
re-scheduled onto the new nodes. The source node is never touched, so playback
does not restart.

A track with no chain is watched too, rather than wired through and forgotten,
so adding its first effect is heard the same way. That means the function
always returns a disposer instead of null for the empty case.

* feat(studio): the geometry and plumbing behind automation lanes

Everything an automation lane needs before there is a lane to look at, kept
apart from the component so the maths can be read and tested without a pointer.

`automationLaneGeometry` is pure: which parameters a clip can automate (its
fader, then each automatable knob of each effect that carries a node id), how a
value maps to a position in the lane, and how a lane is edited. Two decisions
live here and are worth review:

- A log-read knob maps on its own log scale, so the middle of a 100 Hz–20 kHz
  lane is the geometric mean. Dragging and drawing then agree with what the
  knob's own scale already promises.
- `withLane` replaces a lane in place rather than appending. A lane with no
  explicitly chosen parameter shows whichever comes first, so moving the edited
  one to the end would switch the lane out from under the pointer on the first
  edit.

`automationLaneData` parses the two attributes, cached by their text so the
identity only changes when the text does — the lane holds an optimistic draft
while a point is dragged and compares against that identity, and a fresh object
on every playhead tick would throw the drag away. It binds automation to the
chain the way preview and the render bind it, so a lane whose effect was deleted
is dropped rather than drawn against the wrong axis.

`useAutomationLanes` routes edits through the DOM edit session, targeting the
selected element because that is what the attribute commit path writes to.

Row height reserves each lane at its own height rather than counting it as
another keyframe lane, and `TimelinePropertyLanes` gains a footer slot so the
lanes share the keyframe disclosure — and its `aria-controls`.

`TimelineElement` moves to its own module: playerStore had reached the 600-line
studio ceiling exactly and could not carry another field. It is re-exported from
there, so no importer changes.

* fix(studio): make automationLaneData reviewable, and evict one entry not all

The cache key held a literal NUL byte instead of its escape, so git classified
the whole module as binary: it landed as `Bin 0 -> 2677 bytes` with zero
diffable lines, invisible to review, to grep, and to any textual merge. The
escape is behaviour-identical.

With the file readable, two things in it needed fixing.

Eviction cleared the entire map. Clearing changes the identity of every lane's
automation at once, and a lane compares its drag draft against that identity —
so one unrelated element arriving at the limit would release an in-progress drag
and snap the point back. It now drops the oldest entry, and a hit is re-inserted
so it counts as recently used.

Nothing tested this module, which is what let the binary blob through. Now
covered: identity stability, re-parsing when the chain changes but the
automation text does not, a hot entry surviving 40 evictions, and an unreadable
attribute reading as nothing.

The geometry module's exports are ignored for dead-code while its consumer sits
one PR upstack, following the convention already used for the fast-capture
stack.

* fix(studio): carry the audio FX attributes onto every timeline row

Both element builders read `data-fx-chain` and `data-automation` off the host
element, and an expanded sub-composition child is built without one — so an audio
track inside a sub-composition reserved no automation height and drew no lanes,
while the property panel, which reads the live DOM selection rather than the row,
still showed its chain and its toggles. `hostElementState` exists to re-inherit
exactly this class of host-only field; it now covers these two alongside
`hidden`, `timelineLocked` and `timelineRole`.

`parseTimelineFromDOM` had the same gap and now reads both directly.

Also exempts the offline FX render's browser entry from the health gate: it runs
only inside the headless page the engine drives, so its CRAP score is
coverage-driven rather than complexity-driven, and its behaviour is covered by the
engine's real-browser render tests.

* feat(studio): the automation lane itself

Draws each automated parameter as its own lane under the audio clip, on the same
disclosure caret the keyframe lanes use — that caret is the DAW automation
triangle. One lane per parameter rather than a selector to swap between them, so
two envelopes can be read and edited without hiding either.

Double-click the line to add a point, drag to shape it, right-click a point to
remove it.

Three things here took more than one attempt, and the comments say why:

- **A dragged point did not move.** The live write deliberately skips the preview
  refresh — that is what keeps dragging from restarting playback — so the stored
  value does not move under the pointer. The lane keeps a local draft.
- **Releasing snapped it back.** The draft was dropped when the drag ended, which
  is before the persisted write comes around; it now lives until the automation
  it was drawn over actually changes.
- **A press was eaten.** Not stopping propagation let the timeline start its own
  gesture and swallow the second half of a double-click. The lane owns the press
  once it is live — and when it is not, it selects its clip instead, since lanes
  sit below the clip bar where the timeline's own selection handler never sees
  them.

The envelope is inset by the grab radius so a point at the clip's first or last
frame is drawn whole rather than half outside the lane, and clip time still lines
up with screen position because the inset and the offset cancel.

* fix(studio): let a track disclose its automation without a tween

The lane was mounted inside the property-lanes wrapper, which renders only for a
track's GSAP keyframe clip — so an audio clip with no tween resolved to nothing:
no disclosure caret, no reserved height, no lanes. Verified on a composition with
one `<audio>`, an envelope, and no tweens anywhere: 0 carets, 0 lanes. The
attribute still wrote and the render still baked it, so the feature failed
silently for exactly the tracks it exists for. Same composition now: 1 caret, and
expanding it draws the Volume lane.

Automation counts as something to disclose. `resolveTrackKeyframeClip` takes a
counter alongside the keyframe lane counts and qualifies a clip on either; the
header asks the same counter about the clip it already holds. A function rather
than another map threaded through the props: every caller then reads one cached
parse, so the height a row reserves and the lanes drawn in it cannot drift apart.

That drift is also fixed for the lane's own offset, which passed the raw tween
count where every other consumer uses distinct property groups. Two tweens on one
property drew one keyframe lane but pushed the automation lane down by two,
spilling into the next track; one tween on two properties did the inverse and
drew it over a diamond lane, stealing its pointer events. It now reads the same
`laneCounts` map the reserved height and the drawn lanes use.

* feat(studio): automate a parameter without reloading the preview

The write path and the volume half of the panel surface.

**A commit that persists without reloading.** For attributes the runtime applies
to the live graph itself — an FX chain, its automation — a reload would only
interrupt playback to reach the state the preview already has. `skipRefresh` and
`refreshAfter` were already independent options; this exposes the combination
that skips the reload but still re-reads the selection.

Both halves are needed, and they were fighting each other. Without the reload,
audio no longer chops on an edit. Without the resync, the panel keeps reading the
selection snapshot it was built with, so a second edit computes from a pre-edit
value and appears to do nothing — deleting one effect made every later delete a
no-op. `handleDomAttributeLiveCommit` is untouched and still used for knob
dragging, where a per-move re-render is exactly what you do not want.

**Volume.** An automated track's slider is disabled, since a level set there
would be overwritten by the envelope on the next tick, and the toggle beside it
adds or deletes the lane. Adding seeds it with a single point at the level the
slider already shows, so automating a track never changes how loud it is.

**One shared reader** for both panel sections, which is what surfaced that
resolving against an absent chain would have deleted every FX lane the moment
someone automated a volume: the volume section does not parse the chain, so
"no chain" now means "do not resolve" rather than "drop what cannot be resolved".

The toggle itself lives with the FX controls it is shared with, and says
`Automated` / `Automate` through the studio's own Tooltip rather than a native
browser hover.

* fix(studio): stop the last two automation writes reloading the preview

The quiet commit added here was only used by the FX group. Two writers still went
through the refreshing one, so they reloaded the preview and restarted every
playing track — the exact chop the live write during a drag exists to avoid:

- releasing a dragged breakpoint, so the audio hitched at the end of every point
  you moved;
- clicking the volume toggle, while the same click on an effect parameter was
  already silent.

Both are quiet now: still persisted, still resyncing the selection so a following
edit computes from the value just written.

Also fixes the seeded volume. `Number(dataAttributes.volume ?? "1")` is 0 for an
attribute that is present but empty, so automating such a track started its lane
at silence while the engine read the same empty value as unity.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat(studio): automate and un-automate each effect parameter

The per-parameter surface in the FX panel.

An automated parameter's control is disabled — a value typed there would be
overwritten by the envelope on the next tick, so the lane is the value now — and
the toggle beside it adds or deletes that parameter's lane. Adding seeds the lane
with a single point at the value the control already holds, so switching to an
envelope never changes the sound, only where the value comes from.

Parameters no envelope can drive have no toggle at all: the worklet-backed
dynamics expose no AudioParams, a WaveShaper's curve and a convolution impulse
are rebuilt wholesale rather than scheduled. Neither does a chain node with no
id, since a lane addresses nodes by id — so adding an effect now mints one.

Carve moves onto the same non-reloading write, and decodes its source in an
`OfflineAudioContext`: opening a second output device mid-playback makes the
running track glitch while the hardware is reconfigured. Turning carve off now
also drops the filters it generated, which otherwise kept dipping the bed with
nothing in the panel to explain it.

`AudioFxGroup` moves into its own module — PropertyPanelFlat was at its size
budget — which also gave the panel's write behaviour somewhere to be tested: what
it writes, seeded at the current value, preserving the lanes it is not touching,
and clearing the attribute when the last one goes.

* feat(studio): only offer voiceover carve when there is a voice to carve against

Carve is a relationship between two tracks — it analyses another track's voice
and dips this bed where that voice sits. In a composition with a single audio
track there is nothing to listen to, so the block offered an empty source picker
and an Analyse button that could never do anything.

It is now shown only when the composition holds another audio track, and still
shown when carve is already configured: hiding a live setting because its voice
track was removed would leave the bed being dipped from out of sight.

* test(studio): cover carve visibility through the real element

The panel derives carve's source list from the selected element's document, so
a selection with no element has no sources — which the new visibility rule
correctly reads as 'nothing to carve against'. The suite mounted exactly that,
so it was asserting on a hidden block.

Selections now carry a real <audio> with a sibling track, and the two cases the
rule exists for are pinned directly.

* fix(studio): keep FX panel writes from clobbering each other

Three writes in the audio panel each read the source file, mutate one
attribute and write it back. Fired without ordering they read the same
content and the last one lands, dropping the others.

- Deleting an effect left its automation lanes in the attribute. Ids are
  minted lowest-free, so the next effect added took the same id and
  inherited the dead envelope: disabled and "Automated" without the
  author ever automating it, and baked into the render.
- Switching carve off wrote the chain (dropping the filters it generated)
  and the carve settings at once, so either the filters stayed with no
  carve to explain them or the settings survived with no filters.
- The three carve dials committed per input event, patching the source
  and resyncing the selection dozens of times per drag. They now preview
  live and persist on release, like the FX knobs already do.

Volume automation reads through the quiet commit too, so removing a lane
resyncs the panel instead of leaving the slider disabled.

* feat(engine): let an FX tail decay instead of cutting it at the clip

The offline render ended at the last input sample, so a reverb or a delay
was still ringing when the context stopped. Measured on a 1.5 s tone
through a default reverb, the render cut at 1.524 s while the tail was
still at -29.7 dB — an audible chop, and the one place the render did not
match preview.

The length does not have to be guessed. Every tail here follows from its
own settings: a convolution is exactly as long as its impulse, and
`synthesizeReverbImpulse` derives that from room size; a delay's repeats
fall by `feedback` every `time`, so the count down to -60 dB is a log.
Everything else settles with its input — an all-pass chain has group
delay, not a tail, and a 9-second compressor release has no signal to
release once the clip stops.

`chainTailSeconds` sums them (the chain is serial, so a delay in front of
a reverb hands each repeat to the room), reads a lane's maximum rather
than the static knob where one is automated, and caps at 5 s — 5 s
between repeats at 0.95 feedback is eleven minutes of decay, and the
panel can dial exactly that.

The mixer's per-track atrim now allows the clip plus its tail; the atrim
after apad still holds every track to the composition's length, so a tail
can run over what follows but never extends the video.

Same fixture after: a smooth decay to -72 dB, last non-zero sample at
3.306 s against the 3.4 s the settings predict.

* feat(studio): curve, snap and type a value in an automation lane

Four gestures from Ableton's envelope editor, which is the muscle memory
an automation lane inherits.

Alt-drag the line between two breakpoints to bend it, Alt-double-click to
straighten. `curve` was already honoured everywhere it is read — drawn in
the lane, sampled in preview, baked into the render through
setValueCurveAtTime — with no gesture anywhere that could set it, so every
envelope anyone could draw was linear in practice. The curve is solved,
not accumulated (x^e = f, so e = ln f / ln x), which keeps the segment
under the pointer instead of drifting away over a long drag; the test
asserts that by sampling with the renderer's own sampler.

Shift locks a drag to one axis and fines the vertical travel to a quarter.
Which axis won is decided in pixels — seconds and dB are not comparable
numbers, and comparing them would make the lock depend on the zoom.

A dragged point snaps to the beat grid and to its neighbouring points,
with Alt to ignore it. The radius is tight on purpose: a lane is often a
few seconds wide, where a generous radius makes a point unplaceable
between two beats.

Double-click a point to type its value. -6.0 dB is not a pixel you can
find, and there was no way to enter one.

The gesture layer moves to useAutomationLaneGestures and the path builder
to envelopePath: the component was at the studio's 600-line ceiling, and
both are worth testing without a render. trackShowsBeatStrip comes out of
TimelineLanes for the same reason.

* feat(studio): pure range ops for automation lane selections

Add pointsIn() and replaceRange() functions for managing automation envelope
edits within a time range. The key invariant: envelope values outside the
selection never move. Implemented by anchoring the boundaries at t0 and t1
by sampling the original lane, so cutting middle sections cannot reshape
the rest. Inner points from shape generators can suppress redundant anchors
at merge distance.

* fix(studio): budget replaceRange's inner points before capping, not after

* feat(studio): automation selection slice

* feat(studio): drag-select a time range on an automation lane

Dragging on an automation lane's empty background now arms a range
selection, snapped to the beat grid and clamped to the lane duration; a
sub-3px drag counts as a click and clears instead. Point drags and
Alt-drag segment bends still take priority, since the range arm only
runs where the existing point/segment hit-test already returned null.

useAutomationLanes binds the selection slice per element/lane so the
rect renders from the store, matching the read pattern the writes
already use.

* feat(studio): delete an automation selection from the keyboard

Escape clears the active automation-lane time selection; Delete/Backspace
empties it via replaceRange(..., inner: []), which pins anchor points at
both edges and leaves the envelope outside the selection untouched. Mounted
in TimelineLanes.tsx next to the useAutomationLanes() call that already
lives there. Also adds a stale-selection guard in TimelineAutomationLaneSlot
that clears the selection if its lane's target stops existing on the bound
element's automation (e.g. the automated effect was deleted).

* test(studio): cover the automation selection stale-target guard

* feat(studio): ramp, swell and dip generators for automation selections

* fix(studio): let an automation range keep Delete from the clip

useAppHotkeys listens on window/capture, so it runs before
useAutomationSelectionKeyboard's document/capture handler. With a range
selected, Delete fell straight through to the clip-delete branch and
destroyed the whole audio clip the lane belongs to; Backspace hit the
reset-keyframes branch on the way and wiped the clip's keyframes.

Guard both by returning early when automationSelection is set, mirroring
the selectedKeyframes precedent six lines above. No preventDefault: the
downstream handler still needs the key.

dispatchPlainKey is exported so the arbitration between keyframes, an
automation range and the clip can be pinned without standing up the hook.

span so a second paste lands right after the first). Paste falls through
untouched when no target lane resolves, so clip-level paste keeps working.

Also fixes a latent test-isolation bug: setup() never unmounted the
previous test's Host, so document keydown listeners leaked across tests
and could consume later events before the current test's own listener ran.

* feat(studio): shape and simplify menu on an automation selection

Right-click inside an active time-selection rectangle on an automation
lane now opens a menu offering the four utility shapes (Ramp up, Ramp
down, Swell, Dip) and Simplify, composing generateShape/simplifyPoints
with pointsIn/replaceRange from the prior selection tasks. A point's own
right-click still stops propagation and deletes it, unaffected.

* fix(studio): repair the automation paste path and finish the key arbitration

Paste was the least safe path in this feature: it resolved its target from
the player store but committed through a different, asynchronously-lagging
channel. Six review findings against this branch, plus the Cmd+C/Cmd+V half
of the arbitration wa-15 started for Delete.

- Write channel: resolvePasteTarget bails unless the binding's
  commitTargetKey equals the element it resolved. useAutomationLanes exposes
  that key, resolved through resolveTimelineIdForSelection — the same
  resolver applyDomSelection uses — and read in the same render as the
  commit handlers, so a handler and the key cannot describe different
  moments. Before this, clicking clip B then immediately pasting serialized
  B's automation onto A and left B untouched.
- Chaining: the paste anchor comes from sel.t1, not sel.t0, so a second
  Cmd+V lands after the first instead of on top of it. The old comment
  claimed the new behaviour while the code did the opposite, and no test
  pressed Cmd+V twice.
- Empty copy: copyRange returns false rather than arming a clipboard whose
  every paste is a destructive flatten, and samples the range's edges so
  copying a smooth stretch yields a real segment instead of no points.
- Playhead: the playhead branch requires the playhead to be inside the clip
  rather than silently clamping an out-of-clip playhead to the clip's start.
- Keys: one chord helper normalizes with toLowerCase() and gates on
  !shiftKey && !altKey, matching useAppHotkeys. CapsLock no longer kills the
  shortcut and Ctrl+Alt+V no longer pastes where the app declines.
- Arbitration: useAppHotkeys consults automationOwnsKey before its c/v
  branch, so an active range keeps Cmd+C/Cmd+V from the clip clipboard the
  same way it keeps Delete. Without it Cmd+V duplicated the clip while the
  automation paste wrote the same file, and Cmd+C armed both clipboards.
  It returns without preventDefault — the downstream handler needs the key —
  and declines when the automation clipboard is empty so clip paste still
  works. dispatchModifierKey is exported to pin this, like dispatchPlainKey.
- Double-action: the hook now returns early on e.defaultPrevented.
  useAppHotkeys is on window/capture and deliberately lets a keyframe
  selection outrank a range on Delete; without this that press deleted the
  keyframes there AND emptied the range here.

- Project scoping: the clipboard scopes itself. Every entry point carries the
  project it speaks for and a mismatch empties the module, the shape
  keyframeSlice already uses to discard a request from a previous session.
  Scoping it inside the module rather than clearing it from the session seam
  is deliberate: the failure is silent and destructive — a range copied in
  project A pasted into B is remapped through A's captured sourceRange for an
  FX node B may not have, and the keystroke is consumed so clip paste never
  runs — so no future caller should be able to forget the guard. The mark
  isLastPasteSpan reads is scoped transitively, through the same check.
- Session reset: createTimelineResetState clears automationSelection. It is
  as ephemeral as selectedKeyframes, and a range surviving a project switch
  can match a same-keyed clip in the new project and redirect a paste through
  sel.elementKey === paste.elementKey to a stale t0.

Five of the six paste fixes above shipped without a test that fails without
them, which is how the branch reached review with a comment describing
chaining that the code did not do. Each now has one: a second Cmd+V landing
after the first, a commit-target mismatch declining, an out-of-clip playhead
declining, an empty-lane copy leaving an earlier clipboard intact, and Cmd+V
with CapsLock on. All five fail against this branch's parent.

* feat(engine): render audio FX in an OfflineAudioContext

Reads `data-fx-chain` off an audio element and runs the chain over the trimmed
WAV before volume automation is baked in — effects should see the raw signal,
and the envelope belongs on their output.

The processing happens in an OfflineAudioContext inside the headless browser
the engine already drives, running the same graph builders the studio previews
with. That is the point of the approach: one implementation per effect, so the
render agreeing with the preview is a property of the architecture rather than
a tolerance to police. Reimplementing each effect as an FFmpeg filter would
mean two implementations to keep in step, and for the dynamics processors and
modulated delays there is no filter that behaves the same way.

`build:audio-fx-runtime` bundles the graph builders into an injectable IIFE,
following the same pattern as the existing runtime artifacts, so the browser
runs exactly the code the studio does.

The page loads from a file:// URL rather than about:blank because AudioWorklet
is only exposed in a secure context — the compressor, limiter, gate and
bitcrush processors would otherwise fail to register with an opaque error.
file:// qualifies and needs no listening socket.

The chain is serialised into the attribute the way colour grading carries its
config, so there is no side-car file to resolve or lose.

An FX failure is fatal for the whole mix rather than a per-track soft failure.
Every other audio failure mode degrades gracefully — the track drops, siblings
continue — but substituting the dry signal for a processed one ships a render
that sounds plausible and is not what the author set up. Since the per-element
work races under Promise.all, an internal AbortController chained off the
caller's signal aborts in-flight siblings before workDir is removed.

* feat(core): voiceover carve analysis

Finds the bands a voice occupies so a music bed can be dipped there, letting
the voice sit in front without ducking the whole track.

Carve is a relationship between two tracks rather than an effect on one, so it
stays out of the FX chain. What it emits is an ordinary chain of peaking
filters, so a carve composes with whatever else is on the track and needs no
separate rendering path.

Selection is weighted toward intelligibility rather than raw voice energy.
Ranking purely by power lands on the fundamental almost every time, because
that is where a voice is loudest — but the masking that actually hurts a
voiceover happens higher up, and dipping 160 Hz mostly just thins the bed. The
bias is a control, not a constant: at 0 it follows raw energy, at 1 it weights
toward 1-3 kHz.

Ranking happens in dB, which matters more than it looks. Speech spreads 20-30 dB
across these bands — it falls off roughly 6 dB per octave above the fundamental
— so a weighting has to be on that scale to move anything at all. A
multiplicative weight of `1 - bias + bias * shaped` is bounded below by
`1 - bias`, capping its influence at 10*log10(1/(1 - bias)): 5.2 dB at the 0.7
default, 3 dB at 0.5. That is no influence against a real voice — every bias
short of ~0.95 would rank exactly like bias 0 and carve the fundamental, the
outcome the bias exists to prevent, while looking decisive against a fixture
whose bands sit 2 dB apart. So the bias is a dB penalty, zero at 2 kHz and worth
up to 30 dB at full strength, and relative cut depths come from a dB difference
rather than a ratio of weighted linear powers.

The bias reweights ranking without overriding the spectrum — a band the voice
has no energy in is not worth carving, and scores -Infinity rather than
competing — so a strongly low-pitched voice can still select low at full bias.
What the tests hold is that biasing never selects lower than the unbiased
ranking, that the DEFAULT bias reaches the presence region on a voice with a
realistic tilt, and that bias 0 still follows raw power exactly.

Includes a radix-2 FFT rather than a dependency; one Welch-style averaged
spectrum over third-octave bands does not justify pulling in a DSP library.

* fix(engine): keep the FX render 16-bit, stereo, and correctly sized

Three defects in the offline FX path, none of which any test could see.

**Float output silently disabled sample-accurate volume automation.** The writer
emitted 32-bit IEEE float; the very next mixer step bakes the volume envelope
into the samples and accepts only 16-bit PCM, returning null otherwise. So
enabling any effect downgraded that track to the ffmpeg expression path — capped
at 32 straight segments, quantising a curved envelope, and on a dense one falling
back to base volume. It now writes 16-bit PCM, clamped rather than wrapped so a
limiter at 0 dB or a resonant filter cannot turn overshoot into a click. A test
asserts the baker accepts the writer's own output and actually fades it.

**Everything was folded to mono.** `prepareAudioTrack` goes out of its way to
emit stereo — its pan filter exists to dodge ffmpeg's 3 dB mono-to-stereo
rematrix — and this folded it, then wrote one channel. So adding a single peaking
EQ collapsed a bed's width and cost ~3 dB in the render, while preview stayed
stereo. Channels now travel as one plane each, through an OfflineAudioContext of
the same width, and come back interleaved.

**Small results decoded the wrong length.** `new Float32Array(buf.buffer)`
discards byteOffset and byteLength, and Node pools small allocations: a 400-byte
payload sits at offset 8 inside an 8 KiB pool, so a clip under ~1024 samples
decoded as 2048 samples of unrelated memory — and the empty-result guard could
not see it. The reader has the mirror-image fix: a float data chunk on an odd
boundary (ffmpeg's pcm_f32le writes fmt(18) + fact, landing `data` at 58) now
copies instead of throwing RangeError on an unaligned view.

The tail limitation is now stated rather than mis-stated: the context is exactly
as long as the input, so a reverb or delay still ringing is cut there. The old
comment claimed the opposite. How far a tail may run past a clip's end changes
the clip's length in the mix, so it is a product decision, not one to make here.

* fix(producer): report an FX render failure as an audio error

`processCompositionAudio` reports per-track failures in its result, but an FX
failure it cannot degrade past — a browser that will not launch, a chain that
will not build — rejects instead. `runAudioStage` had no try, so that rejection
escaped to the orchestrator as an unclassified pipeline exception, losing the
stage/owner/retryable classification this stage exists to attach, and skipping
its abort check on the way out.

It now lands in `audioError` alongside every other cause, while an abort still
keeps its own shape rather than being reported as an audio problem.

Not done here: committing the generated `audio-fx-runtime-inline.ts` so a fresh
clone typechecks packages/engine without building first. The bundle is built from
the stub, and the stub changes three times across this stack — so the artifact
differs per branch and would conflict on every restack. Its model,
position-edits-render-inline.ts, is committed only because it is stable. Building
before testing is this monorepo's existing contract (studio's tests need core's
dist too), so the gap is not specific to audio FX and is better closed by a build
ordering gate than by committing a per-branch artifact.

* test(engine): skip the browser FX render cases when there is no browser

CI's `Test` job was red on this PR with four failures, all the same cause:

  Failed to launch the browser process: spawn
  /home/runner/.cache/hyperframes/chrome/chrome-headless-shell

The job installs ffmpeg and no browser, deliberately — every other suite
that needs an external binary already guards on it
(`describe.skipIf(!HAS_FFMPEG)`). These cases were the only ones assuming
a Chrome, so they failed on an absent dependency rather than on anything
about the code.

Guards on `resolveHeadlessShellPath()` — the same resolver
`acquireBrowser` launches through, so the check cannot drift from the
thing it guards the way a hard-coded cache path would. A configured path
that does not exist throws; that is caught and read as "cannot run here".

Checked both directions rather than just the green one: with a browser all
11 cases run and pass, and with `HYPERFRAMES_BROWSER_PATH` pointed at a
missing binary exactly 3 skip and the other 8 still run. A guard that
silently skipped everything would have looked identical in CI.

They keep their value where it exists — every developer machine, and any
job that has run `hyperframes browser ensure`.

Not touched: the CodeQL failure on this PR is a run from 2026-08-07, five
days and several force-pushes stale. None of the 17 open repo alerts are
in files this PR changes; it re-runs on this push.

* chore(engine): suppress the temp-file alert with the reason it is safe

CodeQL flags `writeWav`'s `writeFileSync` as js/insecure-temporary-file
(high) — the one new alert on #3021, and the reason its CodeQL check is
red.

It is a false positive, and the comment says why rather than just silencing
it: `path` is always inside a directory made by `mkdtempSync`, never a
name assembled directly under `tmpdir()`. Both callers are covered — the
browser host page writes into `mkdtempSync(join(tmpdir(), "hf-fx-host-"))`,
and the render output goes to the producer work dir, itself
`mkdtempSync(join(tempRoot, "producer-project-"))`. mkdtemp picks the
random suffix and creates the directory 0700 in one syscall, so the
predictable filename inside it cannot be pre-created or symlinked by
another user, which is the attack the rule is about. The analyzer sees the
dataflow reach `tmpdir()` and not the mkdtemp in between.

Suppressed inline rather than dismissed in the UI, so the justification
lives next to the code and the rule stays live for anything added later in
this file. Matches the repo's existing convention — `planV2.ts:222`
carries an `lgtm[js/insecure-temporary-file]` for a different reason on
the same rule.

Correcting myself: I first reported this alert as not real, having
intersected the PR's files against the default-branch alert list, which
does not contain PR-ref alerts. Querying ?ref=refs/pull/3021/merge returns
it straight away.

* test(engine): probe ffmpeg and Chrome instead of assuming them

Two failures on #3021's Test job, both about the environment rather than
the code under test.

**Bare `ffmpeg` is not on PATH in CI.** The 16-bit fixture shelled out to
`execFileSync("ffmpeg", ...)` and died with ENOENT. The job does provide
ffmpeg, through `prepare-ffmpeg-bin`, which is what `getFfmpegBinary()`
resolves — every other ffmpeg-dependent suite in this package already goes
through it. Now this one does too, and the case is `skipIf(!HAS_FFMPEG)`
so a contributor without ffmpeg skips rather than fails.

**The browser guard trusted the wrong thing.** It asked
`resolveHeadlessShellPath()` and treated a returned path as "a browser is
here". CI's cache holds a chrome-headless-shell that resolves and then
fails to spawn — a partial download is indistinguishable from a working
one by `existsSync`, which is all that resolver checks. So the three
browser cases ran anyway and failed on the launch.

It now runs `--version` and requires exit 0, which is the same probe the
ffmpeg suites use: ask the binary, do not infer from the filesystem.

Checked both directions rather than just the green one. With a working
browser all 11 cases run and pass; with `HYPERFRAMES_BROWSER_PATH` pointed
at a binary that exits non-zero — CI's exact situation — exactly 3 skip
and the other 8 still run. A guard that quietly skipped everything would
have looked identical on the CI summary.

* feat(core): register the audio-fx-rack canary at 0%

Lands the rollout switch dark, per the registry's own procedure: "Start at
percentage: 0 and merge that — a canary at 0 is dead code you can land
safely and ramp without a code review."

Declared at the bottom of the stack so every branch above can read it. The
gate itself goes in at wa-4-fx-panel, where the rack first appears.

Scope is deliberate and stated in the description: it gates the AUTHORING
surface only. A composition that already carries `data-fx-chain` still
plays and renders it. A canary should stage who can REACH a feature, not
make an attribute somebody already wrote silently inert — an agent that
writes a chain through the skill would otherwise produce a file whose audio
processing vanishes with no error.

* feat(studio): audio FX panel generated from the registry

Controls for the whole chain: add, remove, reorder, bypass, and every knob each
effect declares.

Nothing in the panel knows what a compressor is. The registry supplies each
parameter's range, step, unit and scale and the panel renders what it finds, so
adding an effect or a knob upstream needs no change here, and the panel cannot
offer a value the renderer would reject — a typed-in figure is clamped into the
declared range on the way through.

Frequency and time controls span three or four decades, so those declare a log
scale and the slider maps exponentially; a linear slider would spend most of
its travel somewhere useless.

Reorder is a first-class control because chain order changes the sound: a
reverb before a compressor is not the same as after.

Carve gets its own block rather than an entry in the add menu, with a picker
for the voice track to listen to. It processes this track based on another one,
which is how a sidechain control works — it lives on the track that changes,
and names the source.

* feat(studio): show the Audio FX section on audio tracks

Adds `audioFx` to the editing-affordances contract and renders the FX panel in
the inspector when an `<audio>` element is selected.

The section is audio-only. A `<video>` carries its sound on a separate
`<audio>` element, so an FX chain on the video would have nothing to process.

Chain and carve settings are written straight back onto the element as
serialised attributes, the way colour grading carries its config, so
persistence is an ordinary attribute write and needs no new server route. A
chain that cannot be parsed renders as empty rather than breaking the panel,
and the attribute is left untouched until the user changes something.

The collapsed group summarises what is on the track ("2 effects + carve") so
the state is visible without expanding it.

Wired into PropertyPanelFlat rather than PropertyPanel: STUDIO_FLAT_INSPECTOR_ENABLED
defaults to true, so the flat inspector is what actually renders.

* refactor(studio): lift audioFxSummary out of PropertyPanelFlat

`PropertyPanelFlat.tsx` is 612 lines here against the repo's 600-line cap,
so the required File size check is red — the sole reason this PR is
blocked. The review says as much: "mechanical fix (~5 min), not a design
problem. Code itself is LGTM."

Moves `audioFxSummary` to `audioFxSummary.ts`, the same file a later
branch creates for it. Deliberately the smallest cut that clears the cap
rather than the whole `AudioFxGroup` extraction: every later commit in the
stack edits AudioFxGroup, so moving it here would collide with each of
them, while almost nothing touches this function.

595 lines.

* feat(core,studio): hear the FX chain in preview, and run the carve analysis

Splices an element's FX chain into the playback graph so preview stops being
silent about effects, and wires the carve button that was previously inert.

The chain goes between the decoded source and its gain stage: effects see the
raw signal and volume automation rides on their output, matching the order the
offline render uses. Since preview and render call the same graph builders,
what is heard while scrubbing is what gets written.

The splice lives in the transport rather than on the `<audio>` element. The
transport plays each track from a decoded AudioBuffer and mutes the element to
avoid doubling, so capturing the element with createMediaElementSource would
have processed a stream nothing is listening to — it looked like it worked
because the call succeeded, and the audio was unchanged.

A chain that cannot be built plays dry rather than silencing the track, which
is the right failure in preview: the author keeps working and hears the source.
The render still refuses, because shipping the dry signal there would be wrong.

Carve now analyses for real: it decodes the chosen voice track, ranks its bands
and writes the resulting peaking filters onto this track. Generated nodes are
tagged `fromCarve`, so re-running replaces the previous carve instead of
stacking another set on top of hand-added effects.

Known limitation: the graph is built when a source is scheduled, so a knob
turned mid-playback takes effect on the next play or seek rather than
immediately. Live re-parameterisation needs the transport to hold the handle
and forward updates.

* fix(studio,core): stop parameter drags from restarting playback

Dragging a knob wrote the chain through the persisting attribute path on every
input event. That path refreshes the preview, which reloads the composition and
reschedules audio — so a single drag reloaded dozens of times and playback
stuttered the whole way.

Drags now go through `onSetAttributeLive`, the same path colour grading uses for
scrubs: it coalesces undo entries and sets `skipRefresh`, so no reload happens.
The persisting write fires once, when the gesture ends — pointer-up or blur for
a slider, Enter or blur for a typed value. A select commits immediately since
there is no drag to wait for.

While dragging, the control is driven from local state. Waiting for the value to
round-trip through the element attribute made the knob lag behind the pointer.

For the change to be audible without a reload, the graph now follows the
attribute: the chain installed by the transport observes the element and
re-parameterises itself in place, so a value change lands on the next
128-sample quantum. A shape change (effect added, bypassed, pole count) cannot
be patched into a running graph, so it still waits for the next schedule rather
than cutting the audio mid-play.

The regression test drags a slider through several values and asserts the
persisting handler is untouched until release.

* feat(studio): put the audio FX rack behind its canary

Gates the rack on `isCanaryEnabled("audio-fx-rack")`, which is registered
at 0% — so the whole 47-PR stack can land without showing anyone a feature
that has not been measured yet.

The gate sits on the AUTHORING surface and nowhere else. The runtime and
the render still honour a `data-fx-chain` already on an element, so a
composition written through the skill or by `carve.mjs` keeps its
processing rather than going silently dry for anyone outside the cohort. A
canary should stage who can REACH a feature, not make an attribute somebody
already wrote stop working with no error.

Gated at the panel rather than in `resolveEditingSections`: the affordance
resolver is a pure function in core describing what an element CAN support,
and rollout state is not a property of an `<audio>` tag.

Pinned the 0% with a test, and checked it fails at 25 — a ramp should have
to break something that says "this ships dark" out loud.

One gap, stated rather than papered over: the gate itself has no unit test.
I wrote one and deleted it, because `PropertyPanel.test.tsx`'s harness
never renders the Audio FX group for its audio fixture even with the gate
removed — so the test passed for the wrong reason in the off case and could
not pass at all in the on case. A test that cannot fail for the right
reason is worse than none. Verifying the gate needs the panel harness to
mount that section first, which is its own change.

* fix(core): register FX worklets before building nodes that need them

An AudioWorkletNode cannot be constructed before its processor is registered —
it throws, and the surrounding chain is lost with it. `attachElementFxChain`
built the chain first and only then called `ensureAudioFxWorklets`, so every
worklet-backed effect (compressor, limiter, gate, bitcrush) threw on
construction and the track fell back to dry. Instrumenting the preview showed
`hf-compressor: InvalidStateError` with addModule never called at all.

When the module has not landed yet the track now plays dry and the graph is
swapped in once registration resolves, so the effect arrives a moment late
instead of never.

Registration is also tracked per context rather than in one module-level
promise. A processor registered on one AudioContext does not exist on another,
so the shared promise made every context after the first believe it was ready
when it was not — the studio's transport owns its own context, which is exactly
that case.

With the worklets actually running, the compressor's per-sample log10 and pow
became real audio-thread work. Samples below the knee have a gain of exactly
unity and need neither, so the envelope is now compared in the linear domain
and the transcendentals only run for samples that are actually being
compressed.

* refactor(studio): split the FX node row out of FxSection

Clears the health findings the FX stack left behind: the chain-node render
callback was a 70-line closure over half of FxSection's state, and the two
reorder arrows were the same button written twice.

Also drops two exports with no consumers, and registers the audio FX runtime
stub as an entry point — it is bundled by file path, so nothing imports it.

* feat(core): automation envelope model for audio tracks

Adds the data model behind Ableton-style automation lanes: breakpoint
envelopes over track volume or one knob of one effect in the track's FX
chain, stored on the element as `data-automation`.

Times are clip-local, so an envelope travels with the clip when it moves —
the clip-envelope model rather than arrangement automation.

`sampleAutomationLane` is the single interpolator. The lane drawing, the
preview scheduler and the render bake all call it, so the picture and the
sound cannot disagree about the curve. Log-scaled parameters interpolate in
log space, matching what their own knob already promises.

FX nodes gain a stable `id`, minted by count rather than randomly so the
document is the same on every machine. Lanes address nodes by id, so
reordering a chain never re-points a lane at a different effect, and a lane
whose effect was deleted is dropped rather than left to reattach.

Also warns when a track carries both a volume lane and a GSAP volume tween,
since only the lane is heard and the tween silently does nothing.

* refactor(studio): lift the audio FX group out of PropertyPanelFlat

`PropertyPanelFlat.tsx` was 672 lines against the repo's 600-line cap, so
the required File size check was red — the sole reason #3014 and #3022 are
blocked. Both reviews say the same thing: "mechanical fix, not a design
problem. Code itself is LGTM."

Moves `AudioFxGroup` and `audioFxSummary` into
`propertyPanelAudioFxGroup.tsx`, which is where a later branch puts them
anyway — done here so the file is under the cap from the point it first
crosses it, rather than ten branches later.

533 lines now. The four audio imports it no longer needs go with it.

Not fixed here: three `FxSection carve` tests fail on this branch with
"Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'toFixed')". Confirmed
pre-existing by stashing this change and re-running — that is the separate
`Test` failure the review also flags.

* feat(core): expose the AudioParams behind automatable FX knobs

Marks the knobs an automation lane can drive and has each graph builder hand
back the AudioParam behind them, so a scheduler can write to a running effect
without knowing what the effect is.

A knob is not always one AudioParam. A wet/dry mix is two gains moving in
opposition, and a knob in milliseconds drives a delay time in seconds, so
each target carries the mapping out of the knob's own declared unit.

What stays unautomatable is stated where it is decided: a WaveShaper curve, a
convolution impulse and a one-pole filter's coefficients are all rebuilt
wholesale rather than scheduled, and the four worklet effects take values by
postMessage rather than through AudioParams.

The registry flag is written by hand, so a test builds every effect and
checks the exposure both ways — nothing flagged is missing, nothing exposed
is unflagged. A flag that lied would offer a lane that silently did nothing.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat(core): play automation envelopes in preview

Schedules each lane onto the AudioParams behind its knob using native ramps
and value curves. Nothing evaluates the envelope per frame: it is handed to
the audio thread once, so it stays sample-accurate however busy the main
thread is, and the offline render will schedule it the same way.

Timing comes from the transport, so an envelope survives seeking into the
middle of a clip, a clip that has not started yet, and a playback rate that
compresses clip seconds into context seconds.

A straight line is only scheduled as a ramp when nothing bends it — no
curvature, a linear parameter scale, and no unit mapping. Log-scaled
parameters and mapped ones are sampled instead, since a delay knob in
milliseconds and a wet/dry pair moving in opposition are not linear in the
parameter they drive.

Lanes with nowhere to write are skipped rather than reported: a one-pole
filter exposes no frequency param, and the worklet effects expose none at
all. Editing an envelope mid-playback re-aims it at the live playhead rather
than restarting the track.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(core): make the volume lane audible in preview

The envelope was scheduled onto the transport's gain AudioParam, but the
runtime rewrites that gain every tick from `data-volume` and the GSAP-seeked
value — so it was erased within a frame. Volume automation was correct in the
render and inaudible while previewing.

The lane now feeds the per-tick path where the probed volume keyframes already
sit, checked ahead of them so the two cannot fight, and the transport no
longer schedules volume at all: one mechanism instead of two racing.

The cost is honest — in preview the level steps per tick rather than per
sample, exactly as the existing keyframe path does. The render still bakes it
into the PCM sample-accurately, and FX parameters are still scheduled on their
own AudioParams, since nothing rewrites those.

Parsed lanes are cached by attribute text: the runtime asks once per tick per
track, and parsing there would run the JSON parser 60 times a second for a
value that only changes on an edit.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat(engine): bake automation envelopes into the render

The offline render schedules FX lanes with the same scheduler preview uses,
inside the OfflineAudioContext that already runs the same graph builders. The
input WAV is the clip's own audio from its first sample, so clip-local time
is offline time and the envelope needs no offset.

Volume lanes take the existing PCM bake rather than a second mechanism: the
lane is converted to keyframes, so a straight fade stays two of them and only
a bent segment is sampled — the baker interpolates linearly and would
otherwise quietly straighten the curve. A volume lane supersedes keyframes
probed from the timeline, which `lint` already warns about.

A browser test sweeps a lowpass from below a 2 kHz tone to well above it and
measures both ends. Parsing the envelope is not the same as scheduling it,
and only running the real thing tells the two apart.

* fix(core): apply chain edits to the running graph

A structural edit — an effect added, removed, bypassed, or a filter's pole
count switched — was dropped. `buildFxChain`'s update reports false when the
change is not merely new values, and the attribute observer ignored that, so
the edit only took hold when the persisting write reloaded the composition.
That reload restarted every playing track, which is what was heard as the
audio chopping.

The graph is now swapped in place: the old effects are detached, the new ones
built and connected between the same source and gain, and any lanes
re-scheduled onto the new nodes. The source node is never touched, so playback
does not restart.

A track with no chain is watched too, rather than wired through and forgotten,
so adding its first effect is heard the same way. That means the function
always returns a disposer instead of null for the empty case.

* fix(studio): drop the FX panel's dead __testables export

Fallow audit flagged it — no test imports the module.

* fix(core,studio): clear the remaining Fallow audit findings on the FX panel

- Split FxSection's per-node row into FxNodeRow + FxNodeControls so the
  CRAP score (31.6, threshold 30) splits across two smaller units instead
  of moving wholesale with one extraction.
- Dedupe the repeated "open the add menu, read its items" block in
  propertyPanelFxSection.test.tsx into openAddMenuItems().
- Merge build-audio-fx-runtime.ts and build-position-edits-render.ts into
  one build-inline-artifact.ts, config-selected by CLI arg — the two
  scripts were a byte-for-byte clone save for names.
- Exempt canary.test.ts's rawFnv (a deliberate independent
  reimplementation used to cross-check canaryBucket, per its own
  docstring) and the property-panel test files' shared renderInto/mount
  scaffolding (pre-existing across 9 files, 2 outside this stack) in
  .fallowrc.jsonc, consistent with this file's existing exemptions for
  the same class of intentional/pre-existing duplication.

* fix(ci): allowlist the build-script consolidation in the no-main-deletions guard

build-audio-fx-runtime.ts and build-position-edits-render.ts were merged into
build-inline-artifact.ts to kill a fallow duplication finding; the deletion
guard flagged that as an accidental loss since main still has both originals.

* fix(core): dedupe the wet/dry mix math between delayFeedback and chorusLfo

Both effect builders set wet.gain to the mix and dry.gain to its complement
in identical two-line blocks; fallow kept re-flagging it as a 10-line clone
on every unrelated change. Extracted setWetDryMix.

* fix(core): remove the build-audio-fx-runtime.ts stray resurrected by a main merge

An earlier merge with main brought this deleted file back (git's merge/delete
handling on an unchanged-on-one-side file); package.json already points at
build-inline-artifact.ts, so it sat unreachable and duplicating that file's
config, both of which fallow flagged.

* fix(studio): pull TimelineLanes under the 600-line cap

TimelineLanes.tsx hit 620 lines. Extracted the three per-clip pointer
gestures (resize-start, pointer-down move-arm, click/razor-split) into
createClipGestureHandlers — one factory call per rendered clip instead of
~120 lines of inline handler bodies in the render loop. 529 lines now.

* fix(studio): split the extracted pointerdown handler under the CRAP threshold

Moving the ~120-line gesture logic into timelineClipGestureHandlers.ts
concentrated it into two functions fallow flagged (onPointerDown at CRAP
63.6, onResizeStart at 31.6). Split the decision logic (which gesture a
pointerdown implies) into a pure resolvePointerDownAction, then split
its own intent-blocking check into isIntentBlocked. onResizeStart's guard
moved into canStartResize. Every function now scores under 30.

* fix(studio): drop the unused DomEditSelection import in PropertyPanelFlat

CI caught it on PR #3026 (wa-12-panel-params); a later refactor in the
stack removed the last use of the type here without removing the import.

Vance IngallsandClaude Opus 5 7203e0a73c feat(studio): automate a parameter without reloading the preview (#3025)
* feat(core): audio FX registry

One declarative description of every effect that can be applied to an audio
track: fourteen across filters, dynamics, non-linear and time, each exposing
its full parameter surface rather than a curated subset.

Parameters carry the range, step, unit and scale a control needs, so a panel
can generate its UI from this rather than hard-coding a form per effect, and a
value that survives `normalizeAudioFxParams` is always safe to realise.
Everything is declared in the units a person thinks in — dB, ms, Hz.

Parsing rejects an unknown effect id rather than skipping the node. A chain
that quietly loses an effect renders something other than what was authored,
which is worse than refusing to load it.

Data only: no audio is produced here. The graph that realises each effect is
referenced by the `web` id and lands in the next change, which keeps this
module free of browser globals so the engine and the linter can import it.

* fix(core): stop declaring knobs that move nothing

Three parameters were declared with ranges, defaults and hints, and read by no
builder — dials an author could turn with no audible result.

- `chorus.decay` and `bitcrush.aa`: removed. FFmpeg's chorus feeds a decay back
  into its delay line and a bitcrusher's anti-alias needs a real filter; adding
  either is new DSP, not a fix, so the honest move is to stop advertising them.
- `lowshelf.q` / `highshelf.q`: removed. The Web Audio spec leaves Q unused for
  shelving filters, so the control moved nothing — and because the shared Q
  helper marks it automatable, an author could draw an envelope on it and hear
  nothing at all.

`phaser.decay` and `gate.knee` stay: the first drives the sweep depth, and the
second is now read by the gate's processor.

A test asserts each of these directly, since the existing exposure invariant only
checks that a flagged parameter reaches an AudioParam — a parameter the node then
ignores passes it.

* feat(core): Web Audio graphs for the FX registry

One graph builder per `web` id, turning the registry's declarations into
running audio.

Every node exposes `update`, so turning a dial re-parameterises the live graph
rather than rebuilding it: an AudioParam change lands on the next 128-sample
quantum, about 2.7 ms at 48 kHz. `buildFxChain` reports whether an update could
be applied in place — adding or bypassing an effect, or switching a filter
between one and two poles (which changes the node type from BiquadFilterNode to
IIRFilterNode), changes the graph's shape and returns false so the caller
rebuilds.

Four effects have no native node and run as AudioWorklet processors:
compressor, limiter, gate and bitcrush. The module is registered from a data:
URL rather than a blob:, because a blob inherits the page origin and is opaque
on a file:// page, where it fails with an unhelpful AbortError.

Reverb has no single node either. `synthesizeReverbImpulse` generates a tail
from the room parameters, seeded so the same room sounds the same on every
machine, and the ConvolverNode uses it.

Tests cover the wiring — which nodes get built, how they connect, parameter
application and clamping, in-place update versus rebuild, disposal — against a
fake AudioContext, since happy-dom has no Web Audio.

* fix(core): reverb level, phaser wiring, per-channel dynamics, one-pole rebuild

Four defects in the graph builders, all found by review rather than by ear.

**Reverb was unusable at its own defaults.** A ConvolverNode applies the
impulse's gain whole — the graph sets `normalize = false` so a room is
deterministic rather than browser-defined — but the impulse was raw decaying
noise. Measured L2 at the registry default (size 0.7 / damping 0.5): 46.4, or
+33.3 dB, putting the wet path ~24 dB over dry at the default `wet: 0.35`. It is
now normalised to unit energy, so the wet knob means what it says. Preview and
render both convolve this buffer, so they stayed identical throughout — equally
deafening before, equally correct now.

**Phaser in_gain/out_gain trim the signal entering and leaving the effect**, not
a wet/dry pair. Wired to the wet and dry legs, "Input" muted the dry path and
the two defaults summed to 1.14, so inserting a phaser raised the track level.
They are now input and output trims with the legs summed at unity. Its declared
waveform is also honoured: `lfo.type` was never assigned, so the default
"Triangular" was silently a sine.

**The dynamics worklets held one envelope across a channel-major loop.** The
followers advance per sample, so on stereo a 20 ms attack behaved as 10 ms, and
the right channel's gain came from an envelope that had already traversed the
left — the two ducked differently from the same input and the image pumped.
State is now per channel, as is the gate's smoothed gain and bitcrush's
sample-hold counter, which previously advanced only on the last channel and left
every earlier one frozen for a whole quantum. The gate also honours the knee it
declares instead of chattering on material sitting at the threshold.

**A one-pole filter's cutoff was swallowed in preview.** Its coefficients are
fixed at construction, so `update` cannot push a new frequency — but the shape
signature carried only type and pole count, so a cutoff change looked like a
values-only edit and went into a no-op updater. Preview kept filtering at the
old frequency while the render used the new one: a preview/render divergence in
exactly the two effects that do not use a BiquadFilterNode.

* feat(engine): render audio FX in an OfflineAudioContext

Reads `data-fx-chain` off an audio element and runs the chain over the trimmed
WAV before volume automation is baked in — effects should see the raw signal,
and the envelope belongs on their output.

The processing happens in an OfflineAudioContext inside the headless browser
the engine already drives, running the same graph builders the studio previews
with. That is the point of the approach: one implementation per effect, so the
render agreeing with the preview is a property of the architecture rather than
a tolerance to police. Reimplementing each effect as an FFmpeg filter would
mean two implementations to keep in step, and for the dynamics processors and
modulated delays there is no filter that behaves the same way.

`build:audio-fx-runtime` bundles the graph builders into an injectable IIFE,
following the same pattern as the existing runtime artifacts, so the browser
runs exactly the code the studio does.

The page loads from a file:// URL rather than about:blank because AudioWorklet
is only exposed in a secure context — the compressor, limiter, gate and
bitcrush processors would otherwise fail to register with an opaque error.
file:// qualifies and needs no listening socket.

The chain is serialised into the attribute the way colour grading carries its
config, so there is no side-car file to resolve or lose.

An FX failure is fatal for the whole mix rather than a per-track soft failure.
Every other audio failure mode degrades gracefully — the track drops, siblings
continue — but substituting the dry signal for a processed one ships a render
that sounds plausible and is not what the author set up. Since the per-element
work races under Promise.all, an internal AbortController chained off the
caller's signal aborts in-flight siblings before workDir is removed.

* feat(core): voiceover carve analysis

Finds the bands a voice occupies so a music bed can be dipped there, letting
the voice sit in front without ducking the whole track.

Carve is a relationship between two tracks rather than an effect on one, so it
stays out of the FX chain. What it emits is an ordinary chain of peaking
filters, so a carve composes with whatever else is on the track and needs no
separate rendering path.

Selection is weighted toward intelligibility rather than raw voice energy.
Ranking purely by power lands on the fundamental almost every time, because
that is where a voice is loudest — but the masking that actually hurts a
voiceover happens higher up, and dipping 160 Hz mostly just thins the bed. The
bias is a control, not a constant: at 0 it follows raw energy, at 1 it weights
toward 1-3 kHz.

Ranking happens in dB, which matters more than it looks. Speech spreads 20-30 dB
across these bands — it falls off roughly 6 dB per octave above the fundamental
— so a weighting has to be on that scale to move anything at all. A
multiplicative weight of `1 - bias + bias * shaped` is bounded below by
`1 - bias`, capping its influence at 10*log10(1/(1 - bias)): 5.2 dB at the 0.7
default, 3 dB at 0.5. That is no influence against a real voice — every bias
short of ~0.95 would rank exactly like bias 0 and carve the fundamental, the
outcome the bias exists to prevent, while looking decisive against a fixture
whose bands sit 2 dB apart. So the bias is a dB penalty, zero at 2 kHz and worth
up to 30 dB at full strength, and relative cut depths come from a dB difference
rather than a ratio of weighted linear powers.

The bias reweights ranking without overriding the spectrum — a band the voice
has no energy in is not worth carving, and scores -Infinity rather than
competing — so a strongly low-pitched voice can still select low at full bias.
What the tests hold is that biasing never selects lower than the unbiased
ranking, that the DEFAULT bias reaches the presence region on a voice with a
realistic tilt, and that bias 0 still follows raw power exactly.

Includes a radix-2 FFT rather than a dependency; one Welch-style averaged
spectrum over third-octave bands does not justify pulling in a DSP library.

* fix(engine): keep the FX render 16-bit, stereo, and correctly sized

Three defects in the offline FX path, none of which any test could see.

**Float output silently disabled sample-accurate volume automation.** The writer
emitted 32-bit IEEE float; the very next mixer step bakes the volume envelope
into the samples and accepts only 16-bit PCM, returning null otherwise. So
enabling any effect downgraded that track to the ffmpeg expression path — capped
at 32 straight segments, quantising a curved envelope, and on a dense one falling
back to base volume. It now writes 16-bit PCM, clamped rather than wrapped so a
limiter at 0 dB or a resonant filter cannot turn overshoot into a click. A test
asserts the baker accepts the writer's own output and actually fades it.

**Everything was folded to mono.** `prepareAudioTrack` goes out of its way to
emit stereo — its pan filter exists to dodge ffmpeg's 3 dB mono-to-stereo
rematrix — and this folded it, then wrote one channel. So adding a single peaking
EQ collapsed a bed's width and cost ~3 dB in the render, while preview stayed
stereo. Channels now travel as one plane each, through an OfflineAudioContext of
the same width, and come back interleaved.

**Small results decoded the wrong length.** `new Float32Array(buf.buffer)`
discards byteOffset and byteLength, and Node pools small allocations: a 400-byte
payload sits at offset 8 inside an 8 KiB pool, so a clip under ~1024 samples
decoded as 2048 samples of unrelated memory — and the empty-result guard could
not see it. The reader has the mirror-image fix: a float data chunk on an odd
boundary (ffmpeg's pcm_f32le writes fmt(18) + fact, landing `data` at 58) now
copies instead of throwing RangeError on an unaligned view.

The tail limitation is now stated rather than mis-stated: the context is exactly
as long as the input, so a reverb or delay still ringing is cut there. The old
comment claimed the opposite. How far a tail may run past a clip's end changes
the clip's length in the mix, so it is a product decision, not one to make here.

* fix(producer): report an FX render failure as an audio error

`processCompositionAudio` reports per-track failures in its result, but an FX
failure it cannot degrade past — a browser that will not launch, a chain that
will not build — rejects instead. `runAudioStage` had no try, so that rejection
escaped to the orchestrator as an unclassified pipeline exception, losing the
stage/owner/retryable classification this stage exists to attach, and skipping
its abort check on the way out.

It now lands in `audioError` alongside every other cause, while an abort still
keeps its own shape rather than being reported as an audio problem.

Not done here: committing the generated `audio-fx-runtime-inline.ts` so a fresh
clone typechecks packages/engine without building first. The bundle is built from
the stub, and the stub changes three times across this stack — so the artifact
differs per branch and would conflict on every restack. Its model,
position-edits-render-inline.ts, is committed only because it is stable. Building
before testing is this monorepo's existing contract (studio's tests need core's
dist too), so the gap is not specific to audio FX and is better closed by a build
ordering gate than by committing a per-branch artifact.

* test(engine): skip the browser FX render cases when there is no browser

CI's `Test` job was red on this PR with four failures, all the same cause:

  Failed to launch the browser process: spawn
  /home/runner/.cache/hyperframes/chrome/chrome-headless-shell

The job installs ffmpeg and no browser, deliberately — every other suite
that needs an external binary already guards on it
(`describe.skipIf(!HAS_FFMPEG)`). These cases were the only ones assuming
a Chrome, so they failed on an absent dependency rather than on anything
about the code.

Guards on `resolveHeadlessShellPath()` — the same resolver
`acquireBrowser` launches through, so the check cannot drift from the
thing it guards the way a hard-coded cache path would. A configured path
that does not exist throws; that is caught and read as "cannot run here".

Checked both directions rather than just the green one: with a browser all
11 cases run and pass, and with `HYPERFRAMES_BROWSER_PATH` pointed at a
missing binary exactly 3 skip and the other 8 still run. A guard that
silently skipped everything would have looked identical in CI.

They keep their value where it exists — every developer machine, and any
job that has run `hyperframes browser ensure`.

Not touched: the CodeQL failure on this PR is a run from 2026-08-07, five
days and several force-pushes stale. None of the 17 open repo alerts are
in files this PR changes; it re-runs on this push.

* chore(engine): suppress the temp-file alert with the reason it is safe

CodeQL flags `writeWav`'s `writeFileSync` as js/insecure-temporary-file
(high) — the one new alert on #3021, and the reason its CodeQL check is
red.

It is a false positive, and the comment says why rather than just silencing
it: `path` is always inside a directory made by `mkdtempSync`, never a
name assembled directly under `tmpdir()`. Both callers are covered — the
browser host page writes into `mkdtempSync(join(tmpdir(), "hf-fx-host-"))`,
and the render output goes to the producer work dir, itself
`mkdtempSync(join(tempRoot, "producer-project-"))`. mkdtemp picks the
random suffix and creates the directory 0700 in one syscall, so the
predictable filename inside it cannot be pre-created or symlinked by
another user, which is the attack the rule is about. The analyzer sees the
dataflow reach `tmpdir()` and not the mkdtemp in between.

Suppressed inline rather than dismissed in the UI, so the justification
lives next to the code and the rule stays live for anything added later in
this file. Matches the repo's existing convention — `planV2.ts:222`
carries an `lgtm[js/insecure-temporary-file]` for a different reason on
the same rule.

Correcting myself: I first reported this alert as not real, having
intersected the PR's files against the default-branch alert list, which
does not contain PR-ref alerts. Querying ?ref=refs/pull/3021/merge returns
it straight away.

* feat(core): register the audio-fx-rack canary at 0%

Lands the rollout switch dark, per the registry's own procedure: "Start at
percentage: 0 and merge that — a canary at 0 is dead code you can land
safely and ramp without a code review."

Declared at the bottom of the stack so every branch above can read it. The
gate itself goes in at wa-4-fx-panel, where the rack first appears.

Scope is deliberate and stated in the description: it gates the AUTHORING
surface only. A composition that already carries `data-fx-chain` still
plays and renders it. A canary should stage who can REACH a feature, not
make an attribute somebody already wrote silently inert — an agent that
writes a chain through the skill would otherwise produce a file whose audio
processing vanishes with no error.

* feat(studio): audio FX panel generated from the registry

Controls for the whole chain: add, remove, reorder, bypass, and every knob each
effect declares.

Nothing in the panel knows what a compressor is. The registry supplies each
parameter's range, step, unit and scale and the panel renders what it finds, so
adding an effect or a knob upstream needs no change here, and the panel cannot
offer a value the renderer would reject — a typed-in figure is clamped into the
declared range on the way through.

Frequency and time controls span three or four decades, so those declare a log
scale and the slider maps exponentially; a linear slider would spend most of
its travel somewhere useless.

Reorder is a first-class control because chain order changes the sound: a
reverb before a compressor is not the same as after.

Carve gets its own block rather than an entry in the add menu, with a picker
for the voice track to listen to. It processes this track based on another one,
which is how a sidechain control works — it lives on the track that changes,
and names the source.

* feat(studio): show the Audio FX section on audio tracks

Adds `audioFx` to the editing-affordances contract and renders the FX panel in
the inspector when an `<audio>` element is selected.

The section is audio-only. A `<video>` carries its sound on a separate
`<audio>` element, so an FX chain on the video would have nothing to process.

Chain and carve settings are written straight back onto the element as
serialised attributes, the way colour grading carries its config, so
persistence is an ordinary attribute write and needs no new server route. A
chain that cannot be parsed renders as empty rather than breaking the panel,
and the attribute is left untouched until the user changes something.

The collapsed group summarises what is on the track ("2 effects + carve") so
the state is visible without expanding it.

Wired into PropertyPanelFlat rather than PropertyPanel: STUDIO_FLAT_INSPECTOR_ENABLED
defaults to true, so the flat inspector is what actually renders.

* refactor(studio): lift audioFxSummary out of PropertyPanelFlat

`PropertyPanelFlat.tsx` is 612 lines here against the repo's 600-line cap,
so the required File size check is red — the sole reason this PR is
blocked. The review says as much: "mechanical fix (~5 min), not a design
problem. Code itself is LGTM."

Moves `audioFxSummary` to `audioFxSummary.ts`, the same file a later
branch creates for it. Deliberately the smallest cut that clears the cap
rather than the whole `AudioFxGroup` extraction: every later commit in the
stack edits AudioFxGroup, so moving it here would collide with each of
them, while almost nothing touches this function.

595 lines.

* feat(studio): put the audio FX rack behind its canary

Gates the rack on `isCanaryEnabled("audio-fx-rack")`, which is registered
at 0% — so the whole 47-PR stack can land without showing anyone a feature
that has not been measured yet.

The gate sits on the AUTHORING surface and nowhere else. The runtime and
the render still honour a `data-fx-chain` already on an element, so a
composition written through the skill or by `carve.mjs` keeps its
processing rather than going silently dry for anyone outside the cohort. A
canary should stage who can REACH a feature, not make an attribute somebody
already wrote stop working with no error.

Gated at the panel rather than in `resolveEditingSections`: the affordance
resolver is a pure function in core describing what an element CAN support,
and rollout state is not a property of an `<audio>` tag.

Pinned the 0% with a test, and checked it fails at 25 — a ramp should have
to break something that says "this ships dark" out loud.

One gap, stated rather than papered over: the gate itself has no unit test.
I wrote one and deleted it, because `PropertyPanel.test.tsx`'s harness
never renders the Audio FX group for its audio fixture even with the gate
removed — so the test passed for the wrong reason in the off case and could
not pass at all in the on case. A test that cannot fail for the right
reason is worse than none. Verifying the gate needs the panel harness to
mount that section first, which is its own change.

* feat(core,studio): hear the FX chain in preview, and run the carve analysis

Splices an element's FX chain into the playback graph so preview stops being
silent about effects, and wires the carve button that was previously inert.

The chain goes between the decoded source and its gain stage: effects see the
raw signal and volume automation rides on their output, matching the order the
offline render uses. Since preview and render call the same graph builders,
what is heard while scrubbing is what gets written.

The splice lives in the transport rather than on the `<audio>` element. The
transport plays each track from a decoded AudioBuffer and mutes the element to
avoid doubling, so capturing the element with createMediaElementSource would
have processed a stream nothing is listening to — it looked like it worked
because the call succeeded, and the audio was unchanged.

A chain that cannot be built plays dry rather than silencing the track, which
is the right failure in preview: the author keeps working and hears the source.
The render still refuses, because shipping the dry signal there would be wrong.

Carve now analyses for real: it decodes the chosen voice track, ranks its bands
and writes the resulting peaking filters onto this track. Generated nodes are
tagged `fromCarve`, so re-running replaces the previous carve instead of
stacking another set on top of hand-added effects.

Known limitation: the graph is built when a source is scheduled, so a knob
turned mid-playback takes effect on the next play or seek rather than
immediately. Live re-parameterisation needs the transport to hold the handle
and forward updates.

* fix(studio,core): stop parameter drags from restarting playback

Dragging a knob wrote the chain through the persisting attribute path on every
input event. That path refreshes the preview, which reloads the composition and
reschedules audio — so a single drag reloaded dozens of times and playback
stuttered the whole way.

Drags now go through `onSetAttributeLive`, the same path colour grading uses for
scrubs: it coalesces undo entries and sets `skipRefresh`, so no reload happens.
The persisting write fires once, when the gesture ends — pointer-up or blur for
a slider, Enter or blur for a typed value. A select commits immediately since
there is no drag to wait for.

While dragging, the control is driven from local state. Waiting for the value to
round-trip through the element attribute made the knob lag behind the pointer.

For the change to be audible without a reload, the graph now follows the
attribute: the chain installed by the transport observes the element and
re-parameterises itself in place, so a value change lands on the next
128-sample quantum. A shape change (effect added, bypassed, pole count) cannot
be patched into a running graph, so it still waits for the next schedule rather
than cutting the audio mid-play.

The regression test drags a slider through several values and asserts the
persisting handler is untouched until release.

* fix(core): register FX worklets before building nodes that need them

An AudioWorkletNode cannot be constructed before its processor is registered —
it throws, and the surrounding chain is lost with it. `attachElementFxChain`
built the chain first and only then called `ensureAudioFxWorklets`, so every
worklet-backed effect (compressor, limiter, gate, bitcrush) threw on
construction and the track fell back to dry. Instrumenting the preview showed
`hf-compressor: InvalidStateError` with addModule never called at all.

When the module has not landed yet the track now plays dry and the graph is
swapped in once registration resolves, so the effect arrives a moment late
instead of never.

Registration is also tracked per context rather than in one module-level
promise. A processor registered on one AudioContext does not exist on another,
so the shared promise made every context after the first believe it was ready
when it was not — the studio's transport owns its own context, which is exactly
that case.

With the worklets actually running, the compressor's per-sample log10 and pow
became real audio-thread work. Samples below the knee have a gain of exactly
unity and need neither, so the envelope is now compared in the linear domain
and the transcendentals only run for samples that are actually being
compressed.

* refactor(studio): split the FX node row out of FxSection

Clears the health findings the FX stack left behind: the chain-node render
callback was a 70-line closure over half of FxSection's state, and the two
reorder arrows were the same button written twice.

Also drops two exports with no consumers, and registers the audio FX runtime
stub as an entry point — it is bundled by file path, so nothing imports it.

* refactor(studio): lift the audio FX group out of PropertyPanelFlat

`PropertyPanelFlat.tsx` was 672 lines against the repo's 600-line cap, so
the required File size check was red — the sole reason #3014 and #3022 are
blocked. Both reviews say the same thing: "mechanical fix, not a design
problem. Code itself is LGTM."

Moves `AudioFxGroup` and `audioFxSummary` into
`propertyPanelAudioFxGroup.tsx`, which is where a later branch puts them
anyway — done here so the file is under the cap from the point it first
crosses it, rather than ten branches later.

533 lines now. The four audio imports it no longer needs go with it.

Not fixed here: three `FxSection carve` tests fail on this branch with
"Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'toFixed')". Confirmed
pre-existing by stashing this change and re-running — that is the separate
`Test` failure the review also flags.

* feat(core): automation envelope model for audio tracks

Adds the data model behind Ableton-style automation lanes: breakpoint
envelopes over track volume or one knob of one effect in the track's FX
chain, stored on the element as `data-automation`.

Times are clip-local, so an envelope travels with the clip when it moves —
the clip-envelope model rather than arrangement automation.

`sampleAutomationLane` is the single interpolator. The lane drawing, the
preview scheduler and the render bake all call it, so the picture and the
sound cannot disagree about the curve. Log-scaled parameters interpolate in
log space, matching what their own knob already promises.

FX nodes gain a stable `id`, minted by count rather than randomly so the
document is the same on every machine. Lanes address nodes by id, so
reordering a chain never re-points a lane at a different effect, and a lane
whose effect was deleted is dropped rather than left to reattach.

Also warns when a track carries both a volume lane and a GSAP volume tween,
since only the lane is heard and the tween silently does nothing.

* feat(core): expose the AudioParams behind automatable FX knobs

Marks the knobs an automation lane can drive and has each graph builder hand
back the AudioParam behind them, so a scheduler can write to a running effect
without knowing what the effect is.

A knob is not always one AudioParam. A wet/dry mix is two gains moving in
opposition, and a knob in milliseconds drives a delay time in seconds, so
each target carries the mapping out of the knob's own declared unit.

What stays unautomatable is stated where it is decided: a WaveShaper curve, a
convolution impulse and a one-pole filter's coefficients are all rebuilt
wholesale rather than scheduled, and the four worklet effects take values by
postMessage rather than through AudioParams.

The registry flag is written by hand, so a test builds every effect and
checks the exposure both ways — nothing flagged is missing, nothing exposed
is unflagged. A flag that lied would offer a lane that silently did nothing.

* feat(core): play automation envelopes in preview

Schedules each lane onto the AudioParams behind its knob using native ramps
and value curves. Nothing evaluates the envelope per frame: it is handed to
the audio thread once, so it stays sample-accurate however busy the main
thread is, and the offline render will schedule it the same way.

Timing comes from the transport, so an envelope survives seeking into the
middle of a clip, a clip that has not started yet, and a playback rate that
compresses clip seconds into context seconds.

A straight line is only scheduled as a ramp when nothing bends it — no
curvature, a linear parameter scale, and no unit mapping. Log-scaled
parameters and mapped ones are sampled instead, since a delay knob in
milliseconds and a wet/dry pair moving in opposition are not linear in the
parameter they drive.

Lanes with nowhere to write are skipped rather than reported: a one-pole
filter exposes no frequency param, and the worklet effects expose none at
all. Editing an envelope mid-playback re-aims it at the live playhead rather
than restarting the track.

* feat(engine): bake automation envelopes into the render

The offline render schedules FX lanes with the same scheduler preview uses,
inside the OfflineAudioContext that already runs the same graph builders. The
input WAV is the clip's own audio from its first sample, so clip-local time
is offline time and the envelope needs no offset.

Volume lanes take the existing PCM bake rather than a second mechanism: the
lane is converted to keyframes, so a straight fade stays two of them and only
a bent segment is sampled — the baker interpolates linearly and would
otherwise quietly straighten the curve. A volume lane supersedes keyframes
probed from the timeline, which `lint` already warns about.

A browser test sweeps a lowpass from below a 2 kHz tone to well above it and
measures both ends. Parsing the envelope is not the same as scheduling it,
and only running the real thing tells the two apart.

* fix(core): make the volume lane audible in preview

The envelope was scheduled onto the transport's gain AudioParam, but the
runtime rewrites that gain every tick from `data-volume` and the GSAP-seeked
value — so it was erased within a frame. Volume automation was correct in the
render and inaudible while previewing.

The lane now feeds the per-tick path where the probed volume keyframes already
sit, checked ahead of them so the two cannot fight, and the transport no
longer schedules volume at all: one mechanism instead of two racing.

The cost is honest — in preview the level steps per tick rather than per
sample, exactly as the existing keyframe path does. The render still bakes it
into the PCM sample-accurately, and FX parameters are still scheduled on their
own AudioParams, since nothing rewrites those.

Parsed lanes are cached by attribute text: the runtime asks once per tick per
track, and parsing there would run the JSON parser 60 times a second for a
value that only changes on an edit.

* fix(core): apply chain edits to the running graph

A structural edit — an effect added, removed, bypassed, or a filter's pole
count switched — was dropped. `buildFxChain`'s update reports false when the
change is not merely new values, and the attribute observer ignored that, so
the edit only took hold when the persisting write reloaded the composition.
That reload restarted every playing track, which is what was heard as the
audio chopping.

The graph is now swapped in place: the old effects are detached, the new ones
built and connected between the same source and gain, and any lanes
re-scheduled onto the new nodes. The source node is never touched, so playback
does not restart.

A track with no chain is watched too, rather than wired through and forgotten,
so adding its first effect is heard the same way. That means the function
always returns a disposer instead of null for the empty case.

* feat(studio): the geometry and plumbing behind automation lanes

Everything an automation lane needs before there is a lane to look at, kept
apart from the component so the maths can be read and tested without a pointer.

`automationLaneGeometry` is pure: which parameters a clip can automate (its
fader, then each automatable knob of each effect that carries a node id), how a
value maps to a position in the lane, and how a lane is edited. Two decisions
live here and are worth review:

- A log-read knob maps on its own log scale, so the middle of a 100 Hz–20 kHz
  lane is the geometric mean. Dragging and drawing then agree with what the
  knob's own scale already promises.
- `withLane` replaces a lane in place rather than appending. A lane with no
  explicitly chosen parameter shows whichever comes first, so moving the edited
  one to the end would switch the lane out from under the pointer on the first
  edit.

`automationLaneData` parses the two attributes, cached by their text so the
identity only changes when the text does — the lane holds an optimistic draft
while a point is dragged and compares against that identity, and a fresh object
on every playhead tick would throw the drag away. It binds automation to the
chain the way preview and the render bind it, so a lane whose effect was deleted
is dropped rather than drawn against the wrong axis.

`useAutomationLanes` routes edits through the DOM edit session, targeting the
selected element because that is what the attribute commit path writes to.

Row height reserves each lane at its own height rather than counting it as
another keyframe lane, and `TimelinePropertyLanes` gains a footer slot so the
lanes share the keyframe disclosure — and its `aria-controls`.

`TimelineElement` moves to its own module: playerStore had reached the 600-line
studio ceiling exactly and could not carry another field. It is re-exported from
there, so no importer changes.

🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code)

* fix(studio): make automationLaneData reviewable, and evict one entry not all

The cache key held a literal NUL byte instead of its escape, so git classified
the whole module as binary: it landed as `Bin 0 -> 2677 bytes` with zero
diffable lines, invisible to review, to grep, and to any textual merge. The
escape is behaviour-identical.

With the file readable, two things in it needed fixing.

Eviction cleared the entire map. Clearing changes the identity of every lane's
automation at once, and a lane compares its drag draft against that identity —
so one unrelated element arriving at the limit would release an in-progress drag
and snap the point back. It now drops the oldest entry, and a hit is re-inserted
so it counts as recently used.

Nothing tested this module, which is what let the binary blob through. Now
covered: identity stability, re-parsing when the chain changes but the
automation text does not, a hot entry surviving 40 evictions, and an unreadable
attribute reading as nothing.

The geometry module's exports are ignored for dead-code while its consumer sits
one PR upstack, following the convention already used for the fast-capture
stack.

* fix(studio): carry the audio FX attributes onto every timeline row

Both element builders read `data-fx-chain` and `data-automation` off the host
element, and an expanded sub-composition child is built without one — so an audio
track inside a sub-composition reserved no automation height and drew no lanes,
while the property panel, which reads the live DOM selection rather than the row,
still showed its chain and its toggles. `hostElementState` exists to re-inherit
exactly this class of host-only field; it now covers these two alongside
`hidden`, `timelineLocked` and `timelineRole`.

`parseTimelineFromDOM` had the same gap and now reads both directly.

Also exempts the offline FX render's browser entry from the health gate: it runs
only inside the headless page the engine drives, so its CRAP score is
coverage-driven rather than complexity-driven, and its behaviour is covered by the
engine's real-browser render tests.

* feat(studio): the automation lane itself

Draws each automated parameter as its own lane under the audio clip, on the same
disclosure caret the keyframe lanes use — that caret is the DAW automation
triangle. One lane per parameter rather than a selector to swap between them, so
two envelopes can be read and edited without hiding either.

Double-click the line to add a point, drag to shape it, right-click a point to
remove it.

Three things here took more than one attempt, and the comments say why:

- **A dragged point did not move.** The live write deliberately skips the preview
  refresh — that is what keeps dragging from restarting playback — so the stored
  value does not move under the pointer. The lane keeps a local draft.
- **Releasing snapped it back.** The draft was dropped when the drag ended, which
  is before the persisted write comes around; it now lives until the automation
  it was drawn over actually changes.
- **A press was eaten.** Not stopping propagation let the timeline start its own
  gesture and swallow the second half of a double-click. The lane owns the press
  once it is live — and when it is not, it selects its clip instead, since lanes
  sit below the clip bar where the timeline's own selection handler never sees
  them.

The envelope is inset by the grab radius so a point at the clip's first or last
frame is drawn whole rather than half outside the lane, and clip time still lines
up with screen position because the inset and the offset cancel.

* fix(studio): let a track disclose its automation without a tween

The lane was mounted inside the property-lanes wrapper, which renders only for a
track's GSAP keyframe clip — so an audio clip with no tween resolved to nothing:
no disclosure caret, no reserved height, no lanes. Verified on a composition with
one `<audio>`, an envelope, and no tweens anywhere: 0 carets, 0 lanes. The
attribute still wrote and the render still baked it, so the feature failed
silently for exactly the tracks it exists for. Same composition now: 1 caret, and
expanding it draws the Volume lane.

Automation counts as something to disclose. `resolveTrackKeyframeClip` takes a
counter alongside the keyframe lane counts and qualifies a clip on either; the
header asks the same counter about the clip it already holds. A function rather
than another map threaded through the props: every caller then reads one cached
parse, so the height a row reserves and the lanes drawn in it cannot drift apart.

That drift is also fixed for the lane's own offset, which passed the raw tween
count where every other consumer uses distinct property groups. Two tweens on one
property drew one keyframe lane but pushed the automation lane down by two,
spilling into the next track; one tween on two properties did the inverse and
drew it over a diamond lane, stealing its pointer events. It now reads the same
`laneCounts` map the reserved height and the drawn lanes use.

* feat(studio): automate a parameter without reloading the preview

The write path and the volume half of the panel surface.

**A commit that persists without reloading.** For attributes the runtime applies
to the live graph itself — an FX chain, its automation — a reload would only
interrupt playback to reach the state the preview already has. `skipRefresh` and
`refreshAfter` were already independent options; this exposes the combination
that skips the reload but still re-reads the selection.

Both halves are needed, and they were fighting each other. Without the reload,
audio no longer chops on an edit. Without the resync, the panel keeps reading the
selection snapshot it was built with, so a second edit computes from a pre-edit
value and appears to do nothing — deleting one effect made every later delete a
no-op. `handleDomAttributeLiveCommit` is untouched and still used for knob
dragging, where a per-move re-render is exactly what you do not want.

**Volume.** An automated track's slider is disabled, since a level set there
would be overwritten by the envelope on the next tick, and the toggle beside it
adds or deletes the lane. Adding seeds it with a single point at the level the
slider already shows, so automating a track never changes how loud it is.

**One shared reader** for both panel sections, which is what surfaced that
resolving against an absent chain would have deleted every FX lane the moment
someone automated a volume: the volume section does not parse the chain, so
"no chain" now means "do not resolve" rather than "drop what cannot be resolved".

The toggle itself lives with the FX controls it is shared with, and says
`Automated` / `Automate` through the studio's own Tooltip rather than a native
browser hover.

* fix(studio): stop the last two automation writes reloading the preview

The quiet commit added here was only used by the FX group. Two writers still went
through the refreshing one, so they reloaded the preview and restarted every
playing track — the exact chop the live write during a drag exists to avoid:

- releasing a dragged breakpoint, so the audio hitched at the end of every point
  you moved;
- clicking the volume toggle, while the same click on an effect parameter was
  already silent.

Both are quiet now: still persisted, still resyncing the selection so a following
edit computes from the value just written.

Also fixes the seeded volume. `Number(dataAttributes.volume ?? "1")` is 0 for an
attribute that is present but empty, so automating such a track started its lane
at silence while the engine read the same empty value as unity.

* feat(engine): render audio FX in an OfflineAudioContext

Reads `data-fx-chain` off an audio element and runs the chain over the trimmed
WAV before volume automation is baked in — effects should see the raw signal,
and the envelope belongs on their output.

The processing happens in an OfflineAudioContext inside the headless browser
the engine already drives, running the same graph builders the studio previews
with. That is the point of the approach: one implementation per effect, so the
render agreeing with the preview is a property of the architecture rather than
a tolerance to police. Reimplementing each effect as an FFmpeg filter would
mean two implementations to keep in step, and for the dynamics processors and
modulated delays there is no filter that behaves the same way.

`build:audio-fx-runtime` bundles the graph builders into an injectable IIFE,
following the same pattern as the existing runtime artifacts, so the browser
runs exactly the code the studio does.

The page loads from a file:// URL rather than about:blank because AudioWorklet
is only exposed in a secure context — the compressor, limiter, gate and
bitcrush processors would otherwise fail to register with an opaque error.
file:// qualifies and needs no listening socket.

The chain is serialised into the attribute the way colour grading carries its
config, so there is no side-car file to resolve or lose.

An FX failure is fatal for the whole mix rather than a per-track soft failure.
Every other audio failure mode degrades gracefully — the track drops, siblings
continue — but substituting the dry signal for a processed one ships a render
that sounds plausible and is not what the author set up. Since the per-element
work races under Promise.all, an internal AbortController chained off the
caller's signal aborts in-flight siblings before workDir is removed.

* feat(core): voiceover carve analysis

Finds the bands a voice occupies so a music bed can be dipped there, letting
the voice sit in front without ducking the whole track.

Carve is a relationship between two tracks rather than an effect on one, so it
stays out of the FX chain. What it emits is an ordinary chain of peaking
filters, so a carve composes with whatever else is on the track and needs no
separate rendering path.

Selection is weighted toward intelligibility rather than raw voice energy.
Ranking purely by power lands on the fundamental almost every time, because
that is where a voice is loudest — but the masking that actually hurts a
voiceover happens higher up, and dipping 160 Hz mostly just thins the bed. The
bias is a control, not a constant: at 0 it follows raw energy, at 1 it weights
toward 1-3 kHz.

Ranking happens in dB, which matters more than it looks. Speech spreads 20-30 dB
across these bands — it falls off roughly 6 dB per octave above the fundamental
— so a weighting has to be on that scale to move anything at all. A
multiplicative weight of `1 - bias + bias * shaped` is bounded below by
`1 - bias`, capping its influence at 10*log10(1/(1 - bias)): 5.2 dB at the 0.7
default, 3 dB at 0.5. That is no influence against a real voice — every bias
short of ~0.95 would rank exactly like bias 0 and carve the fundamental, the
outcome the bias exists to prevent, while looking decisive against a fixture
whose bands sit 2 dB apart. So the bias is a dB penalty, zero at 2 kHz and worth
up to 30 dB at full strength, and relative cut depths come from a dB difference
rather than a ratio of weighted linear powers.

The bias reweights ranking without overriding the spectrum — a band the voice
has no energy in is not worth carving, and scores -Infinity rather than
competing — so a strongly low-pitched voice can still select low at full bias.
What the tests hold is that biasing never selects lower than the unbiased
ranking, that the DEFAULT bias reaches the presence region on a voice with a
realistic tilt, and that bias 0 still follows raw power exactly.

Includes a radix-2 FFT rather than a dependency; one Welch-style averaged
spectrum over third-octave bands does not justify pulling in a DSP library.

* fix(engine): keep the FX render 16-bit, stereo, and correctly sized

Three defects in the offline FX path, none of which any test could see.

**Float output silently disabled sample-accurate volume automation.** The writer
emitted 32-bit IEEE float; the very next mixer step bakes the volume envelope
into the samples and accepts only 16-bit PCM, returning null otherwise. So
enabling any effect downgraded that track to the ffmpeg expression path — capped
at 32 straight segments, quantising a curved envelope, and on a dense one falling
back to base volume. It now writes 16-bit PCM, clamped rather than wrapped so a
limiter at 0 dB or a resonant filter cannot turn overshoot into a click. A test
asserts the baker accepts the writer's own output and actually fades it.

**Everything was folded to mono.** `prepareAudioTrack` goes out of its way to
emit stereo — its pan filter exists to dodge ffmpeg's 3 dB mono-to-stereo
rematrix — and this folded it, then wrote one channel. So adding a single peaking
EQ collapsed a bed's width and cost ~3 dB in the render, while preview stayed
stereo. Channels now travel as one plane each, through an OfflineAudioContext of
the same width, and come back interleaved.

**Small results decoded the wrong length.** `new Float32Array(buf.buffer)`
discards byteOffset and byteLength, and Node pools small allocations: a 400-byte
payload sits at offset 8 inside an 8 KiB pool, so a clip under ~1024 samples
decoded as 2048 samples of unrelated memory — and the empty-result guard could
not see it. The reader has the mirror-image fix: a float data chunk on an odd
boundary (ffmpeg's pcm_f32le writes fmt(18) + fact, landing `data` at 58) now
copies instead of throwing RangeError on an unaligned view.

The tail limitation is now stated rather than mis-stated: the context is exactly
as long as the input, so a reverb or delay still ringing is cut there. The old
comment claimed the opposite. How far a tail may run past a clip's end changes
the clip's length in the mix, so it is a product decision, not one to make here.

* fix(producer): report an FX render failure as an audio error

`processCompositionAudio` reports per-track failures in its result, but an FX
failure it cannot degrade past — a browser that will not launch, a chain that
will not build — rejects instead. `runAudioStage` had no try, so that rejection
escaped to the orchestrator as an unclassified pipeline exception, losing the
stage/owner/retryable classification this stage exists to attach, and skipping
its abort check on the way out.

It now lands in `audioError` alongside every other cause, while an abort still
keeps its own shape rather than being reported as an audio problem.

Not done here: committing the generated `audio-fx-runtime-inline.ts` so a fresh
clone typechecks packages/engine without building first. The bundle is built from
the stub, and the stub changes three times across this stack — so the artifact
differs per branch and would conflict on every restack. Its model,
position-edits-render-inline.ts, is committed only because it is stable. Building
before testing is this monorepo's existing contract (studio's tests need core's
dist too), so the gap is not specific to audio FX and is better closed by a build
ordering gate than by committing a per-branch artifact.

* test(engine): skip the browser FX render cases when there is no browser

CI's `Test` job was red on this PR with four failures, all the same cause:

  Failed to launch the browser process: spawn
  /home/runner/.cache/hyperframes/chrome/chrome-headless-shell

The job installs ffmpeg and no browser, deliberately — every other suite
that needs an external binary already guards on it
(`describe.skipIf(!HAS_FFMPEG)`). These cases were the only ones assuming
a Chrome, so they failed on an absent dependency rather than on anything
about the code.

Guards on `resolveHeadlessShellPath()` — the same resolver
`acquireBrowser` launches through, so the check cannot drift from the
thing it guards the way a hard-coded cache path would. A configured path
that does not exist throws; that is caught and read as "cannot run here".

Checked both directions rather than just the green one: with a browser all
11 cases run and pass, and with `HYPERFRAMES_BROWSER_PATH` pointed at a
missing binary exactly 3 skip and the other 8 still run. A guard that
silently skipped everything would have looked identical in CI.

They keep their value where it exists — every developer machine, and any
job that has run `hyperframes browser ensure`.

Not touched: the CodeQL failure on this PR is a run from 2026-08-07, five
days and several force-pushes stale. None of the 17 open repo alerts are
in files this PR changes; it re-runs on this push.

* chore(engine): suppress the temp-file alert with the reason it is safe

CodeQL flags `writeWav`'s `writeFileSync` as js/insecure-temporary-file
(high) — the one new alert on #3021, and the reason its CodeQL check is
red.

It is a false positive, and the comment says why rather than just silencing
it: `path` is always inside a directory made by `mkdtempSync`, never a
name assembled directly under `tmpdir()`. Both callers are covered — the
browser host page writes into `mkdtempSync(join(tmpdir(), "hf-fx-host-"))`,
and the render output goes to the producer work dir, itself
`mkdtempSync(join(tempRoot, "producer-project-"))`. mkdtemp picks the
random suffix and creates the directory 0700 in one syscall, so the
predictable filename inside it cannot be pre-created or symlinked by
another user, which is the attack the rule is about. The analyzer sees the
dataflow reach `tmpdir()` and not the mkdtemp in between.

Suppressed inline rather than dismissed in the UI, so the justification
lives next to the code and the rule stays live for anything added later in
this file. Matches the repo's existing convention — `planV2.ts:222`
carries an `lgtm[js/insecure-temporary-file]` for a different reason on
the same rule.

Correcting myself: I first reported this alert as not real, having
intersected the PR's files against the default-branch alert list, which
does not contain PR-ref alerts. Querying ?ref=refs/pull/3021/merge returns
it straight away.

* test(engine): probe ffmpeg and Chrome instead of assuming them

Two failures on #3021's Test job, both about the environment rather than
the code under test.

**Bare `ffmpeg` is not on PATH in CI.** The 16-bit fixture shelled out to
`execFileSync("ffmpeg", ...)` and died with ENOENT. The job does provide
ffmpeg, through `prepare-ffmpeg-bin`, which is what `getFfmpegBinary()`
resolves — every other ffmpeg-dependent suite in this package already goes
through it. Now this one does too, and the case is `skipIf(!HAS_FFMPEG)`
so a contributor without ffmpeg skips rather than fails.

**The browser guard trusted the wrong thing.** It asked
`resolveHeadlessShellPath()` and treated a returned path as "a browser is
here". CI's cache holds a chrome-headless-shell that resolves and then
fails to spawn — a partial download is indistinguishable from a working
one by `existsSync`, which is all that resolver checks. So the three
browser cases ran anyway and failed on the launch.

It now runs `--version` and requires exit 0, which is the same probe the
ffmpeg suites use: ask the binary, do not infer from the filesystem.

Checked both directions rather than just the green one. With a working
browser all 11 cases run and pass; with `HYPERFRAMES_BROWSER_PATH` pointed
at a binary that exits non-zero — CI's exact situation — exactly 3 skip
and the other 8 still run. A guard that quietly skipped everything would
have looked identical on the CI summary.

* feat(core): register the audio-fx-rack canary at 0%

Lands the rollout switch dark, per the registry's own procedure: "Start at
percentage: 0 and merge that — a canary at 0 is dead code you can land
safely and ramp without a code review."

Declared at the bottom of the stack so every branch above can read it. The
gate itself goes in at wa-4-fx-panel, where the rack first appears.

Scope is deliberate and stated in the description: it gates the AUTHORING
surface only. A composition that already carries `data-fx-chain` still
plays and renders it. A canary should stage who can REACH a feature, not
make an attribute somebody already wrote silently inert — an agent that
writes a chain through the skill would otherwise produce a file whose audio
processing vanishes with no error.

* feat(studio): audio FX panel generated from the registry

Controls for the whole chain: add, remove, reorder, bypass, and every knob each
effect declares.

Nothing in the panel knows what a compressor is. The registry supplies each
parameter's range, step, unit and scale and the panel renders what it finds, so
adding an effect or a knob upstream needs no change here, and the panel cannot
offer a value the renderer would reject — a typed-in figure is clamped into the
declared range on the way through.

Frequency and time controls span three or four decades, so those declare a log
scale and the slider maps exponentially; a linear slider would spend most of
its travel somewhere useless.

Reorder is a first-class control because chain order changes the sound: a
reverb before a compressor is not the same as after.

Carve gets its own block rather than an entry in the add menu, with a picker
for the voice track to listen to. It processes this track based on another one,
which is how a sidechain control works — it lives on the track that changes,
and names the source.

* feat(studio): show the Audio FX section on audio tracks

Adds `audioFx` to the editing-affordances contract and renders the FX panel in
the inspector when an `<audio>` element is selected.

The section is audio-only. A `<video>` carries its sound on a separate
`<audio>` element, so an FX chain on the video would have nothing to process.

Chain and carve settings are written straight back onto the element as
serialised attributes, the way colour grading carries its config, so
persistence is an ordinary attribute write and needs no new server route. A
chain that cannot be parsed renders as empty rather than breaking the panel,
and the attribute is left untouched until the user changes something.

The collapsed group summarises what is on the track ("2 effects + carve") so
the state is visible without expanding it.

Wired into PropertyPanelFlat rather than PropertyPanel: STUDIO_FLAT_INSPECTOR_ENABLED
defaults to true, so the flat inspector is what actually renders.

* refactor(studio): lift audioFxSummary out of PropertyPanelFlat

`PropertyPanelFlat.tsx` is 612 lines here against the repo's 600-line cap,
so the required File size check is red — the sole reason this PR is
blocked. The review says as much: "mechanical fix (~5 min), not a design
problem. Code itself is LGTM."

Moves `audioFxSummary` to `audioFxSummary.ts`, the same file a later
branch creates for it. Deliberately the smallest cut that clears the cap
rather than the whole `AudioFxGroup` extraction: every later commit in the
stack edits AudioFxGroup, so moving it here would collide with each of
them, while almost nothing touches this function.

595 lines.

* feat(core,studio): hear the FX chain in preview, and run the carve analysis

Splices an element's FX chain into the playback graph so preview stops being
silent about effects, and wires the carve button that was previously inert.

The chain goes between the decoded source and its gain stage: effects see the
raw signal and volume automation rides on their output, matching the order the
offline render uses. Since preview and render call the same graph builders,
what is heard while scrubbing is what gets written.

The splice lives in the transport rather than on the `<audio>` element. The
transport plays each track from a decoded AudioBuffer and mutes the element to
avoid doubling, so capturing the element with createMediaElementSource would
have processed a stream nothing is listening to — it looked like it worked
because the call succeeded, and the audio was unchanged.

A chain that cannot be built plays dry rather than silencing the track, which
is the right failure in preview: the author keeps working and hears the source.
The render still refuses, because shipping the dry signal there would be wrong.

Carve now analyses for real: it decodes the chosen voice track, ranks its bands
and writes the resulting peaking filters onto this track. Generated nodes are
tagged `fromCarve`, so re-running replaces the previous carve instead of
stacking another set on top of hand-added effects.

Known limitation: the graph is built when a source is scheduled, so a knob
turned mid-playback takes effect on the next play or seek rather than
immediately. Live re-parameterisation needs the transport to hold the handle
and forward updates.

* fix(studio,core): stop parameter drags from restarting playback

Dragging a knob wrote the chain through the persisting attribute path on every
input event. That path refreshes the preview, which reloads the composition and
reschedules audio — so a single drag reloaded dozens of times and playback
stuttered the whole way.

Drags now go through `onSetAttributeLive`, the same path colour grading uses for
scrubs: it coalesces undo entries and sets `skipRefresh`, so no reload happens.
The persisting write fires once, when the gesture ends — pointer-up or blur for
a slider, Enter or blur for a typed value. A select commits immediately since
there is no drag to wait for.

While dragging, the control is driven from local state. Waiting for the value to
round-trip through the element attribute made the knob lag behind the pointer.

For the change to be audible without a reload, the graph now follows the
attribute: the chain installed by the transport observes the element and
re-parameterises itself in place, so a value change lands on the next
128-sample quantum. A shape change (effect added, bypassed, pole count) cannot
be patched into a running graph, so it still waits for the next schedule rather
than cutting the audio mid-play.

The regression test drags a slider through several values and asserts the
persisting handler is untouched until release.

* feat(studio): put the audio FX rack behind its canary

Gates the rack on `isCanaryEnabled("audio-fx-rack")`, which is registered
at 0% — so the whole 47-PR stack can land without showing anyone a feature
that has not been measured yet.

The gate sits on the AUTHORING surface and nowhere else. The runtime and
the render still honour a `data-fx-chain` already on an element, so a
composition written through the skill or by `carve.mjs` keeps its
processing rather than going silently dry for anyone outside the cohort. A
canary should stage who can REACH a feature, not make an attribute somebody
already wrote stop working with no error.

Gated at the panel rather than in `resolveEditingSections`: the affordance
resolver is a pure function in core describing what an element CAN support,
and rollout state is not a property of an `<audio>` tag.

Pinned the 0% with a test, and checked it fails at 25 — a ramp should have
to break something that says "this ships dark" out loud.

One gap, stated rather than papered over: the gate itself has no unit test.
I wrote one and deleted it, because `PropertyPanel.test.tsx`'s harness
never renders the Audio FX group for its audio fixture even with the gate
removed — so the test passed for the wrong reason in the off case and could
not pass at all in the on case. A test that cannot fail for the right
reason is worse than none. Verifying the gate needs the panel harness to
mount that section first, which is its own change.

* fix(core): register FX worklets before building nodes that need them

An AudioWorkletNode cannot be constructed before its processor is registered —
it throws, and the surrounding chain is lost with it. `attachElementFxChain`
built the chain first and only then called `ensureAudioFxWorklets`, so every
worklet-backed effect (compressor, limiter, gate, bitcrush) threw on
construction and the track fell back to dry. Instrumenting the preview showed
`hf-compressor: InvalidStateError` with addModule never called at all.

When the module has not landed yet the track now plays dry and the graph is
swapped in once registration resolves, so the effect arrives a moment late
instead of never.

Registration is also tracked per context rather than in one module-level
promise. A processor registered on one AudioContext does not exist on another,
so the shared promise made every context after the first believe it was ready
when it was not — the studio's transport owns its own context, which is exactly
that case.

With the worklets actually running, the compressor's per-sample log10 and pow
became real audio-thread work. Samples below the knee have a gain of exactly
unity and need neither, so the envelope is now compared in the linear domain
and the transcendentals only run for samples that are actually being
compressed.

* refactor(studio): split the FX node row out of FxSection

Clears the health findings the FX stack left behind: the chain-node render
callback was a 70-line closure over half of FxSection's state, and the two
reorder arrows were the same button written twice.

Also drops two exports with no consumers, and registers the audio FX runtime
stub as an entry point — it is bundled by file path, so nothing imports it.

* feat(core): automation envelope model for audio tracks

Adds the data model behind Ableton-style automation lanes: breakpoint
envelopes over track volume or one knob of one effect in the track's FX
chain, stored on the element as `data-automation`.

Times are clip-local, so an envelope travels with the clip when it moves —
the clip-envelope model rather than arrangement automation.

`sampleAutomationLane` is the single interpolator. The lane drawing, the
preview scheduler and the render bake all call it, so the picture and the
sound cannot disagree about the curve. Log-scaled parameters interpolate in
log space, matching what their own knob already promises.

FX nodes gain a stable `id`, minted by count rather than randomly so the
document is the same on every machine. Lanes address nodes by id, so
reordering a chain never re-points a lane at a different effect, and a lane
whose effect was deleted is dropped rather than left to reattach.

Also warns when a track carries both a volume lane and a GSAP volume tween,
since only the lane is heard and the tween silently does nothing.

* refactor(studio): lift the audio FX group out of PropertyPanelFlat

`PropertyPanelFlat.tsx` was 672 lines against the repo's 600-line cap, so
the required File size check was red — the sole reason #3014 and #3022 are
blocked. Both reviews say the same thing: "mechanical fix, not a design
problem. Code itself is LGTM."

Moves `AudioFxGroup` and `audioFxSummary` into
`propertyPanelAudioFxGroup.tsx`, which is where a later branch puts them
anyway — done here so the file is under the cap from the point it first
crosses it, rather than ten branches later.

533 lines now. The four audio imports it no longer needs go with it.

Not fixed here: three `FxSection carve` tests fail on this branch with
"Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'toFixed')". Confirmed
pre-existing by stashing this change and re-running — that is the separate
`Test` failure the review also flags.

* feat(core): expose the AudioParams behind automatable FX knobs

Marks the knobs an automation lane can drive and has each graph builder hand
back the AudioParam behind them, so a scheduler can write to a running effect
without knowing what the effect is.

A knob is not always one AudioParam. A wet/dry mix is two gains moving in
opposition, and a knob in milliseconds drives a delay time in seconds, so
each target carries the mapping out of the knob's own declared unit.

What stays unautomatable is stated where it is decided: a WaveShaper curve, a
convolution impulse and a one-pole filter's coefficients are all rebuilt
wholesale rather than scheduled, and the four worklet effects take values by
postMessage rather than through AudioParams.

The registry flag is written by hand, so a test builds every effect and
checks the exposure both ways — nothing flagged is missing, nothing exposed
is unflagged. A flag that lied would offer a lane that silently did nothing.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat(core): play automation envelopes in preview

Schedules each lane onto the AudioParams behind its knob using native ramps
and value curves. Nothing evaluates the envelope per frame: it is handed to
the audio thread once, so it stays sample-accurate however busy the main
thread is, and the offline render will schedule it the same way.

Timing comes from the transport, so an envelope survives seeking into the
middle of a clip, a clip that has not started yet, and a playback rate that
compresses clip seconds into context seconds.

A straight line is only scheduled as a ramp when nothing bends it — no
curvature, a linear parameter scale, and no unit mapping. Log-scaled
parameters and mapped ones are sampled instead, since a delay knob in
milliseconds and a wet/dry pair moving in opposition are not linear in the
parameter they drive.

Lanes with nowhere to write are skipped rather than reported: a one-pole
filter exposes no frequency param, and the worklet effects expose none at
all. Editing an envelope mid-playback re-aims it at the live playhead rather
than restarting the track.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(core): make the volume lane audible in preview

The envelope was scheduled onto the transport's gain AudioParam, but the
runtime rewrites that gain every tick from `data-volume` and the GSAP-seeked
value — so it was erased within a frame. Volume automation was correct in the
render and inaudible while previewing.

The lane now feeds the per-tick path where the probed volume keyframes already
sit, checked ahead of them so the two cannot fight, and the transport no
longer schedules volume at all: one mechanism instead of two racing.

The cost is honest — in preview the level steps per tick rather than per
sample, exactly as the existing keyframe path does. The render still bakes it
into the PCM sample-accurately, and FX parameters are still scheduled on their
own AudioParams, since nothing rewrites those.

Parsed lanes are cached by attribute text: the runtime asks once per tick per
track, and parsing there would run the JSON parser 60 times a second for a
value that only changes on an edit.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat(engine): bake automation envelopes into the render

The offline render schedules FX lanes with the same scheduler preview uses,
inside the OfflineAudioContext that already runs the same graph builders. The
input WAV is the clip's own audio from its first sample, so clip-local time
is offline time and the envelope needs no offset.

Volume lanes take the existing PCM bake rather than a second mechanism: the
lane is converted to keyframes, so a straight fade stays two of them and only
a bent segment is sampled — the baker interpolates linearly and would
otherwise quietly straighten the curve. A volume lane supersedes keyframes
probed from the timeline, which `lint` already warns about.

A browser test sweeps a lowpass from below a 2 kHz tone to well above it and
measures both ends. Parsing the envelope is not the same as scheduling it,
and only running the real thing tells the two apart.

* fix(core): apply chain edits to the running graph

A structural edit — an effect added, removed, bypassed, or a filter's pole
count switched — was dropped. `buildFxChain`'s update reports false when the
change is not merely new values, and the attribute observer ignored that, so
the edit only took hold when the persisting write reloaded the composition.
That reload restarted every playing track, which is what was heard as the
audio chopping.

The graph is now swapped in place: the old effects are detached, the new ones
built and connected between the same source and gain, and any lanes
re-scheduled onto the new nodes. The source node is never touched, so playback
does not restart.

A track with no chain is watched too, rather than wired through and forgotten,
so adding its first effect is heard the same way. That means the function
always returns a disposer instead of null for the empty case.

* fix(studio): drop the FX panel's dead __testables export

Fallow audit flagged it — no test imports the module.

* fix(core,studio): clear the remaining Fallow audit findings on the FX panel

- Split FxSection's per-node row into FxNodeRow + FxNodeControls so the
  CRAP score (31.6, threshold 30) splits across two smaller units instead
  of moving wholesale with one extraction.
- Dedupe the repeated "open the add menu, read its items" block in
  propertyPanelFxSection.test.tsx into openAddMenuItems().
- Merge build-audio-fx-runtime.ts and build-position-edits-render.ts into
  one build-inline-artifact.ts, config-selected by CLI arg — the two
  scripts were a byte-for-byte clone save for names.
- Exempt canary.test.ts's rawFnv (a deliberate independent
  reimplementation used to cross-check canaryBucket, per its own
  docstring) and the property-panel test files' shared renderInto/mount
  scaffolding (pre-existing across 9 files, 2 outside this stack) in
  .fallowrc.jsonc, consistent with this file's existing exemptions for
  the same class of intentional/pre-existing duplication.

* fix(ci): allowlist the build-script consolidation in the no-main-deletions guard

build-audio-fx-runtime.ts and build-position-edits-render.ts were merged into
build-inline-artifact.ts to kill a fallow duplication finding; the deletion
guard flagged that as an accidental loss since main still has both originals.

* fix(core): dedupe the wet/dry mix math between delayFeedback and chorusLfo

Both effect builders set wet.gain to the mix and dry.gain to its complement
in identical two-line blocks; fallow kept re-flagging it as a 10-line clone
on every unrelated change. Extracted setWetDryMix.

* fix(core): remove the build-audio-fx-runtime.ts stray resurrected by a main merge

An earlier merge with main brought this deleted file back (git's merge/delete
handling on an unchanged-on-one-side file); package.json already points at
build-inline-artifact.ts, so it sat unreachable and duplicating that file's
config, both of which fallow flagged.

* fix(studio): pull TimelineLanes under the 600-line cap

TimelineLanes.tsx hit 620 lines. Extracted the three per-clip pointer
gestures (resize-start, pointer-down move-arm, click/razor-split) into
createClipGestureHandlers — one factory call per rendered clip instead of
~120 lines of inline handler bodies in the render loop. 529 lines now.

* fix(studio): split the extracted pointerdown handler under the CRAP threshold

Moving the ~120-line gesture logic into timelineClipGestureHandlers.ts
concentrated it into two functions fallow flagged (onPointerDown at CRAP
63.6, onResizeStart at 31.6). Split the decision logic (which gesture a
pointerdown implies) into a pure resolvePointerDownAction, then split
its own intent-blocking check into isIntentBlocked. onResizeStart's guard
moved into canStartResize. Every function now scores under 30.

Miguel Ángel 4cc46f5f9f feat(studio): edit and style text in the preview (#3143)
* feat(studio): edit and style text in the preview

Double-press a text element in the canvas and the caret opens where you
pressed, in the element itself rather than in a panel. Select characters and
a small toolbar offers colour, bold, italic and underline, applied to
exactly those characters.

The toolbar lives in Studio's document rather than the composition's.
Putting it in the preview would inject Studio's chrome into the user's
composition, where a render would capture it and the composition's own
styling would inherit into it.

In a flex or grid container the rebuilt runs go inside one wrapper, so a
coloured word cannot reflow the element it sits in.

Also fixes the keyboard: the shortcut guards matched contenteditable=true
only, so playback shortcuts ate letters typed into the composition.

Miguel Ángel d5cc1c9c62 fix(studio): keep the preview alive when the window is tight (#3091)
Panel sizes are reconciled against the window on every resize, with the preview holding a 360x200 floor that panels yield to before it gives.

Measured preview pane: 760px window 192 -> 433, 560px window 2 -> 516. Windows at or above 1280px are unchanged.

- fitPanels owns the who-yields decision for both axes
- panel caps are window-relative, replacing a flat 600px inspector cap
- below 860 the sidebar rails, below 700 the inspector collapses too
- auto-collapse is derived render state and never writes leftCollapsed
  (localStorage) or rightCollapsed (synced into the shareable URL)
- the rail and header toggles act on the effective state, so neither is a
  dead click that silently persists a collapse the user never asked for

Miguel Angel Simon Sierra 6b58678d94 fix(studio): drop dead keyframe menu wiring and close the R1 review items
The diamond context menu still declared `onChangeEase` and `onCopyProperties`
props, and `TimelineOverlays` still threaded `onChangeKeyframeEase` plus a
`keyframeCache` it never read. Nothing on any timeline branch calls them, so
they are removed along with the `onChangeKeyframeEase` callback implementation.

Also from review:
- `deleteSelectedKeyframes` only falls back to the sole keyframed animation when
  there is exactly one. A collapsed selection key carries no animation id, so
  taking the first of several deleted an arbitrary tween's keyframe.
- The duration-less retime test asserts the real 87.601% instead of
  `expect.any(Number)`, so a wrong timing basis fails it.
- `Timeline` wires the keyframe handlers' `onSelectSegment` through to the
  diamonds; it was built and then dropped, so segment ease selection never fired.
- The flat text section arms auto-focus in state rather than reading and
  clearing a ref during render, which Strict Mode's double render swallowed.

Vance Ingalls 79b688f204 fix(studio): show Layers full-height in the flat inspector, not split with Design
The flat inspector split Layers and Design into a vertically-resizable
stacked pair whenever both panes were toggled on, mirroring the legacy
panel's layout. For the flat redesign this reads as two competing panels
crammed into one column; Layers should always render full-height by
itself there instead.

Gate the split-view branch behind !STUDIO_FLAT_INSPECTOR_ENABLED so it
still applies to the legacy panel, and fall through to Layers rendering
alone (the existing `layersPaneOpen` branch already does this — it just
never got reached previously because the split check ran first).

Also added setExclusiveRightInspectorPane (radio-style: selecting one pane
turns the other off) and use it for the Design/Layers tab clicks under the
flat flag, since leaving both panes independently toggleable would highlight
both tabs as "active" while only one actually renders.

New usePanelLayout.test.ts covers both the existing toggle behavior and the
new exclusive variant. Full studio suite (2634 tests) green; typecheck/
oxlint/oxfmt clean.

Vance Ingalls e820e18092 fix(studio): atomic timing pin, expanded-list Hide All, repeated-host matching, pointercancel revert
Fixes real bugs from two independent re-reviews (#2225 @ 65954c3804,
#2416 @ beaf4ffbf6):

- FlatTimingRow's pinRange committed a pinned start+duration range through
  TWO sequential onSetAttribute calls. Each resolves domEditSelection fresh
  from current hook state, so a selection change between the two awaits
  could misdirect the second write at the newly-selected element instead of
  the one being edited, and a failure of just the second call left the pair
  half-applied (inconsistent inferred/explicit state). Added
  commitDataAttributes/handleDomAttributesCommit (mirroring
  onCommitAnimatedProperties's same-shaped fix for GSAP property batches):
  one PatchOperation[] persist call against an explicit, caller-supplied
  selection — not the "current" one — threaded through as the new optional
  onSetAttributes prop. pinRange uses it when provided, falls back to the
  old sequential behavior otherwise.

- Hide All silently dropped nested sub-composition children: a selection
  inside a sub-comp with no timeline-store entry of its own resolves to a
  virtual `sourceFile#domId` key (the fallback branch exists so the
  expansion hook can later resolve it via clipParentMap), but
  toggleTimelineElementHidden only searched the RAW store list, which never
  contains that key. useTimelineElementVisibilityEditing now resolves
  against useExpandedTimelineElements() instead, matching the track-based
  toggle's existing approach — the expanded list synthesizes a real,
  patchable TimelineElement (matching key/domId/sourceFile) for each visible
  child whenever its host is currently expanded.

- Two composition hosts importing the same sub-composition collapsed to
  the first one: findMatchingTimelineElementId ORed domId/selector/
  compositionSrc matches with equal priority in a single per-element scan,
  so `.find()` could stop at an EARLIER, unrelated host that merely shared
  the compositionSrc, before the scan ever reached the correct domId/
  selector match further down the list. Restructured to try domId, then
  selector, across the WHOLE list first; compositionSrc-only matching is
  now a true last resort for when neither identifies a specific element.

- FlatSlider's native pointercancel handler (a platform-level gesture abort
  — scroll/touch takeover, pen leaving range) manually duplicated the
  pointer-capture release logic instead of calling cancelDrag, so it never
  reverted to the pre-drag value — leaving whatever intermediate position
  the pointer last reached committed, unlike the Escape/right-click paths
  added in the previous round. Now calls cancelDrag directly.

- useColorGradingController's flushPendingPersist read identityKeyRef.current
  fresh at flush time rather than a value snapshotted when the edit was
  scheduled. Defensive fix: added pendingPersistIdentityRef, set alongside
  pendingPersistValueRef in commitColorGrading, read by flushPendingPersist
  instead of the live ref — closes the gap regardless of how unlikely the
  actual race is given the identity-cleanup effect's existing eager-flush
  behavior.

Two prior findings re-verified as already fixed further up this same
Graphite stack (not re-fixed here, per established stack-order handling):
metadata-cache negative-caching (267cdfce1) and cross-file
selectionIdentityKey (6f40e03a1), both landing after #2225's reviewed head.

StudioRightPanel.tsx crossed the 600-line file-size gate after wiring the
new onSetAttributes prop through; extracted the inspector split-pane resize
handlers (previously inlined) into their own useInspectorSplitResize hook.

New regression tests: repeated-composition-host resolution, atomic vs.
fallback pinRange commit paths, pointercancel revert. Full studio suite
still at the known pre-existing 55-failure baseline, zero new regressions.

Miguel Ángelandukimsanov df29fa7a5e feat(studio): revamps Studio + improves code quality (#2291)
* feat(studio): glue API coexistence layer for the NLE swap

What: extends 21 glue files so the OLD timeline/canvas engine and the NEW
NLE components type-check side by side: playerStore (multi-select setters,
zoom pin, snap toggle, non-reactive scale scratch), drag-state types gain
optional NLE fields, timelineLayout/timelineAssetDrop/timelineEditingHelpers/
timelineEditing/timelineElementHelpers/studioHelpers/assetHelpers gain the
NLE exports, DomEditOverlay + gestures + AssetContextMenu + Timeline props
gain optional callbacks/params, contexts gain *Optional hooks, and
TimelineEditCallbacks.onMoveElements becomes a bivariant method accepting
both engines' change shapes. patchDocumentRootDuration's test rides along.

Why: this is the keystone that dissolves the old "welded glue" problem —
every symbol the NLE components need is ADDED next to what the old engine
still uses, so the engine components and the swaps can land as separate
reviewable PRs.

How: 15 authored intermediate files (main content + additive symbols; no
behavior changes — new fields optional, new callbacks unused until wired)
plus 6 files whose final content is already purely additive. New exports
without consumers yet carry TEMP(studio-dnd) ignoreExports entries, removed
by the app-shell swap.

Test plan: tsc --noEmit in studio + studio-server (verifies BOTH engines
compile); bunx vitest run (full suite green incl. the 6 new
patchDocumentRootDuration tests); fallow audit clean.

* feat(studio): timeline interaction hooks and lanes component (unwired)

What: the timeline-side wiring layer, unwired: TimelineLanes (the lane
renderer driving drag/resize/marquee), timelineMarquee (+tests),
useTimelineStackingSync, useTimelineGeometry, useTimelineEditPinning,
useTimelineEditingDrops.

Why: everything between the pure drag math and <Timeline> itself; the
timeline-glue swap PR then only rewires Timeline/TimelineCanvas onto these.

How: new files, tsc-clean against the coexistence layer. Unwired components
carry TEMP(studio-dnd) entry registrations, removed at the app-shell swap.

Test plan: bunx vitest run timelineMarquee.test.ts; tsc --noEmit; fallow
audit clean.

* feat(studio): NLE shell assembly (unwired)

What: EditorShell (the full editor layout replacing NLELayout +
StudioPreviewArea), TimelinePane (timeline host with sub-comp rebasing) and
useTimelineEditCallbacks (the callback bag bridging store edits to the
timeline), all unwired.

Why: the shell that App swaps to in the final step; reviewing it standalone
keeps that swap PR small.

How: new files against the coexistence layer; TEMP(studio-dnd) entries
until App mounts EditorShell in the app-shell swap.

Test plan: tsc --noEmit; bunx vitest run (suite unchanged); fallow audit
clean.

* feat(studio): timeline glue swap — Timeline/TimelineCanvas onto the NLE engine

What: flips the timeline glue to its final form (23 files): Timeline and
TimelineCanvas rebuilt on TimelineLanes/TimelineOverlays, useTimelineClipDrag
drives preview/commit through the new drag engine, range selection goes
multi-select, playback loop moves to useTimelinePlayerLoop. Deletes the 9
old-engine files this orphans (group drag, marquee selection, snap targets,
layer gutter, selection overlays + their suites) — each is compile- or
gate-forced by this swap, verified by probe.

Why: second swap step; timeline-only, canvas and App untouched.

How: modified files to final content + forced deletions.
playerStore/timelineEditing/timelineCallbacks stay at their coexistence
form until the app swap (the old App still runs on them).

Test plan: tsc --noEmit; bunx vitest run (full suite); fallow audit clean.

* feat(studio): clip thumbnail modules

What: ImageThumbnail (+tests) and thumbnailUtils (+tests) — frame decode
with SVG/AVIF format fallbacks and rounded-corner clipping — plus
VideoThumbnail updates.

Why: the decode layer for timeline clip thumbnails, ahead of the visual
refresh that renders them.

How: new modules + one modified file; purely presentational.

Test plan: bunx vitest run on both test files; tsc --noEmit; fallow audit

* feat(studio): assets/blocks panel behaviors + preview helpers

What: blocks tab install flow, right-panel and global drag-overlay polish,
music beat analysis and clip-content rendering hooks, and the
preview-helper utilities backing asset preview.

Why: completes the studio NLE stack on top of the visual refresh.

How: modified files only (kept as one PR: splitting further would produce
sub-150-LOC fragments of interdependent panel glue).

* fix(studio): preserve graded resize and crop geometry

* fix(studio): log resize/rotate commit failures, move anchor accumulator to resize-local

* fix(studio): treat duration-0 tweens as static holds and settle resize position before persist

Instant holds (to()/fromTo() with duration 0) were classified as animated
tweens by every commit route, so resizing or rotating them converted the
hold into a corrupt duration-0 keyframes tween (new value at 0%, old at
100%) that GSAP drops; panel edits appended a losing set. A shared
isInstantHold() now routes them through the static replace-in-place path,
and percentage math guards zero-duration windows.

Separately, anchored-corner resizes painted 3-5 frames at the new size but
old position while the offset persist round-tripped the server. The commit
path now applies the corrected GSAP position synchronously before awaiting
the offset persist, mirroring the scale route's settle.

* feat(studio): gesture-transaction seam with commit observability

Introduce runGestureTransaction — one owner for a gesture commit's
settle -> persist -> record lifecycle. It settles the live DOM
synchronously before any async persist, folds every mutation into one
undo entry via a per-transaction coalesceKey, restores pre-gesture state
exactly once on failure, and asserts (dev console) + reports (PostHog:
commit_transaction / commit_invariant_violation / commit_transaction_failed)
that a persist never changes pixels. The box-size resize path is migrated
onto it; the ad hoc per-route coalesceKey/reload handling is removed.

Extract the resize draft-rect math into resizeDraft.ts to keep the
gesture-handler file under the size cap.

Also: keep url_hash telemetry to the route slug only (drop the query
string, which carried the user's selected element id/selector), and gate
the [hf-resize] diagnostics behind localStorage hf-resize-debug so they
ship as opt-in tracing rather than console noise.

* fix(studio): transaction owns the undo label

The coalesced history entry took the last sub-mutation's label, so a
resize surfaced as "Move layer" (the offset persist) in undo/redo. The
seam now stamps tx.label on every wrapped mutation, so the folded entry
reads as the gesture.

* fix(studio): atomic static size/position commits (no data loss)

Static resize/position holds updated an existing set via delete+add — two
undo entries, and a delete that succeeded before a failed add lost the
hold on disk. Use one in-place update-properties mutation when a set
exists (one undo entry, no partial-failure window). The keyframed-hold
heal that can't be expressed as a property update now adds before it
deletes, so any single failure leaves a recoverable duplicate, never a
lost hold. Transaction-owned commits are tracked via a WeakSet so the
heal path never double-wraps an already-wrapped gesture.

* fix(core): restore timed-clip visibility after a forced timeline rebind

__hfForceTimelineRebind force-rendered the re-registered timeline but never
re-ran the per-[data-start] visibility pass, so after undo or soft reload
every clip rendered regardless of its time window until a full page reload.
Extract the visibility loop into syncTimedElementVisibility and call it from
both syncMediaForCurrentState (unchanged) and the rebind.

* fix(studio): atomic z-order/keyframe/split commits, one undo entry each

Three edit-commit paths hardened onto the one-transaction invariant:

- Z-order reorder (useElementLifecycleOps): N per-element writes now fold
  into one undo entry (coalesceMs Infinity) and, on a failed persist,
  restore already-written files to disk so no partial reorder survives.
- Enable-keyframes (useEnableKeyframes/useGsapKeyframeOps): the intermediate
  convert phase no longer full-reloads the preview (skipReload), killing the
  black-flash remount; convert + edit share one coalesce key = one undo entry.
- Razor split-all (useRazorSplit): snapshot before the batch and restore on
  any failure, so a mid-batch error never leaves un-revertable partial splits.

Shared file-history helpers (RecordEditInput, DomEditCommitBaseParams,
readProjectFileContent, restoreFilesToOriginal) dedupe the rollback/commit
logic across these paths. Commit options thread as one partial object rather
than field-by-field. Test setup extracted into colocated helpers.

* fix(studio): fold multi-step edits into one undo entry; guard text revert

- Gesture recording (useGestureCommit): the per-property-group commits now
  share one coalesce key and only the last reloads, so a recording is one
  undo entry and one preview reload instead of up to four.
- Delete selected keyframes (deleteSelectedKeyframes, split out of
  timelineEditingHelpers): N removals fold into one coalesced undo entry
  with a single reload.
- Text-field commit (useDomEditTextCommits): commitDomTextFields now uses
  the same version-guarded revert as handleDomTextCommit, so a stale failed
  commit can no longer stomp a newer successful one.

* feat(studio): batch a gesture's mutations into one atomic server write

A transaction that emits N mutations previously did N sequential POSTs,
each rewriting the file and soft-reloading — the root of the multi-phase
persist window. Add a gsap-mutations-batch endpoint that validates every
mutation up front, applies them in one in-memory rewrite chain, and writes
the file once (all-or-nothing: an invalid entry rejects the whole batch,
no partial write). The seam buffers a transaction's commits and, when more
than one targets the same file, dispatches a single batch — one write, one
history entry, one reload. The batch capability rides on the existing
commit-function reference; no option fields are threaded through callers.

* fix(studio): soften off-canvas indicator outline to 30% opacity

The dashed off-canvas selection outline at 60% was noisy with many
protruding elements on screen; drop the resting opacity to 30% (hover
still restores full opacity so it stays discoverable).

* fix(studio): drop off-canvas indicator outline to 10% opacity

Follow-up to the 30% softening — 10% resting opacity reads much calmer
with many protruding elements; hover still restores full opacity.

* fix(studio): gate [hf-commit] console traces to dev only

The start/settled/persisted/restore lifecycle traces logged on every
gesture commit in all environments — console noise for end users. Route
them through a dev-only traceCommit helper (matching the pixel-violation
error's existing DEV gate). The commit_* PostHog events stay always on;
they are the production observability, the console lines are a dev aid.

* fix(studio): count actual reloads, not softReload requests, in commit telemetry

A resize's size and offset persists both request softReload; the seam
counted each request, so a batched gesture reported reload_count 2 even
though the batch is one write and one reload. Compute the count from what
dispatchBufferedCommits actually did — one for a batch, the request count
for the sequential fallback.

* fix(studio): rotate hover + off-canvas overlays with the element; flicker-free crop

- Hover overlay applied the element's rotation only to the selection chrome,
  not the hover box; it now rotates about center like the selection, via a
  shared orientedGroupAwareOverlayRect router (one owner for rotation-aware
  overlay geometry across hover/selection/off-canvas).
- Off-canvas indicator was axis-aligned; it now rotates with the element and
  inverse-rotates the canvas-exclusion clip into the element's local frame,
  so the protruding-sliver clip stays correct for rotated elements.
- Crop commit re-lifted the element only in the commit's .then(), so one
  frame painted the cropped state (the flicker). Re-lift synchronously right
  after onStyleCommit (which applies the clip before its first await), so the
  cropped state never paints; the persisted file value is unchanged.

* fix(studio): address code-review findings across the commit-hardening campaign

Correctness (would ship green, bite under latency):
- Enable-keyframes phase 2 now carries coalesceMs: Infinity, so the convert
  folds into one undo entry instead of splitting past the 300ms default.
- The SDK keyframe persist path forwards coalesceMs (CutoverOptions gains the
  field); multi-keyframe delete and convert coalesce correctly when SDK-routed.
- Razor split-all's rollback is guarded so a failing restore can't swallow the
  error toast that tells the user the split failed.

Simplification (single source of truth / no dead flexibility):
- Decompose resolveResizeDraftRect (drops a fallow-ignore suppression).
- Delegate the third readProjectFileContent copy to the shared helper.
- Inline setPatchFromUpdateProperties (its only caller passes one mutation).
- One toSdkPersistOptions translates gesture overrides to SDK options.
- Bundle the reorder-rollback deps into one object (was 7-9 positional args).
- Dedupe the 'last group reloads' ternary; type gesture options as
  CommitMutationOptions; drop a Map+array wrapper around a single write.

* feat(studio): atomic z-order reorder via batch patch-element endpoint

Z-order reorder issued N per-element inline-style patches (one server
write each), so a mid-chain failure could leave a partial reorder on disk.
Add a patch-elements-batch endpoint that validates every patch, folds them
over the file in one in-memory rewrite, and writes once (all-or-nothing;
unsafe input rejects with no write). The reorder now sends one batch per
source file and records one undo entry. Because a failed atomic write
persists nothing, the interim disk-write-back rollback (restoreReorderedFile
/ restoreFulfilledReorderFiles / ReorderRollbackDeps) is deleted — failure
rolls back only live DOM/store state. Closes the last disk-atomicity gap.

* fix(studio): razor-split undo no longer silently no-ops

The split clone was written to disk without a data-hf-id, so the split
endpoint recorded that unstamped HTML as the undo entry's afterHash. The
next reloadPreview() ran the preview route's ensureHfIds write-back, which
minted a fresh id and persisted DIFFERENT bytes — so at undo time the disk
hash no longer matched afterHash and editHistory's content-mismatch guard
silently refused the undo (no write, no network, no error). Stamp the split
output via ensureHfIds in splitElementInHtml before it is written/returned,
so the preview write-back is a no-op and the recorded afterHash always
equals the final on-disk bytes. Fixes at the source rather than relaxing the
mismatch guard. Corrects the stale comment that credited forceReloadSdkSession.

* feat(studio): closed-hand grab cursor on the rotate handle

The rotate handle used the default arrow cursor; show a grabbing
(closed-hand) cursor on hover to signal it's grabbed and dragged to rotate.

* fix(studio): dropping a dragged element over another no longer selects it

A moved drag's release fired the box click, which re-selected whatever now
sat under the pointer via the hover cache — so dropping an element over a
higher-z one selected the drop target instead of keeping the dragged
element selected. The drag-move branch now suppresses the next box click,
mirroring the resize branch.

* fix(studio): group drag is one undo entry, not one per element

Dragging a multi-selected group committed each member's position write as
its own undo entry, so reverting took N Cmd+Z presses. Force a shared
coalesceKey (infinite window) across every member's commit so they fold
into a single undo entry, like the other multi-step commit paths.

* fix(studio): undo of a split no longer leaves a ghost clip in the timeline

The file and the composition iframe revert correctly on undo, but the
timeline panel kept a ghost node for the split clone. The element-merge
that repopulates the timeline preserves elements the fresh scan dropped —
intended for enriched sub-composition children a bare DOM re-scan misses,
but it also preserved a genuinely-removed TOP-LEVEL element (the split
clone after undo), leaving a phantom clip. Restrict the preserve to
elements with a compositionSrc (the enriched sub-comp children); a
top-level element missing from the fresh scan was truly removed.

Miguel Angel Simon Sierra e5ed512529 feat(studio): timeline track = stacking layer (NLE-style layering)
Re-architect the timeline row model from data-track-index rows to stacking
layers. Rows represent stacking layers per context: explicit-z clips merge onto
one track when they share a z and don't overlap in time; auto-z clips stay one
row each (DOM order); audio is pulled into its own bottom lanes. Rows keyed by a
stable layer id, not data-track-index.

Vertical drag always writes z-index, never track: drop onto a layer joins it
(same z), between layers interpolates a new z, past the ends creates a new
front/back layer. data-track-index is never rewritten; #958 holds. Adds
hasExplicitZIndex capture (computed z != auto).

Miguel Ángel 037266e72b feat(studio): timeline revamp with active-clip highlighting and hide controls (#2017)
Timeline UI
- Highlight clips visible at the playhead in the primary color; others share one neutral color
- Minimalist rounded clips, single-color track rows, no gutter icons or superscript labels
- Per-track eye toggle and a per-element hide button in the design panel
- Ruler zoom fixes: sub-second tick intervals and correct label formatting at high zoom
- Sticky gutter so track controls stay visible while scrolling

WYSIWYG visibility (data-hidden)
- Runtime honors data-hidden (display:none), so hiding affects the render, not just the preview
- HTML stays the source of truth; hide state persists and round-trips on reload

Split several studio files to stay under the 600-line cap; pure relocations, no behavior change.

* feat(studio): make storyboard view default available (remove FF)

Removes STUDIO_STORYBOARD_ENABLED. The storyboard view-mode toggle was
gated behind a default-off feature flag (VITE_STUDIO_ENABLE_STORYBOARD)
since #1529. With the storyboard experience now ready for broad
exposure, drop the gating and make the toggle available unconditionally.

Changes:
- packages/studio/src/components/editor/manualEditingAvailability.ts:
  delete the STUDIO_STORYBOARD_ENABLED constant.
- packages/studio/src/App.tsx: drop the import + FF arg to
  useViewModeState(). Hook is now called argument-free.
- packages/studio/src/components/StudioHeader.tsx: drop the import + the
  conditional-render guard on <ViewModeToggle />. The toggle always
  renders in StudioHeader's center slot.
- packages/studio/src/contexts/ViewModeContext.tsx: remove the enabled:
  boolean parameter from useViewModeState() and simplify.
- packages/studio/fixtures/storyboard-sample/README.md: drop the
  VITE_STUDIO_ENABLE_STORYBOARD=1 prefix from the preview command.

The VITE_STUDIO_ENABLE_STORYBOARD / VITE_STUDIO_STORYBOARD_ENABLED env
vars become no-ops after this change.

Miguel Ángel b403c54ae7 feat(studio): restore keyframe retiming — drag-to-retime + Move to Playhead (closes #1782) (#1784)
* feat(studio): re-expose keyframe retiming via 'Move to Playhead' (closes #1782)

Since #1763 removed the timeline keyframe-drag affordance there was no GUI gesture
to retime an existing keyframe while preserving its value and easing (delete+re-add
bakes computed values and drops the explicit ease). The reducer-level capability
existed (setGsapKeyframe with a new position) but was unwired.

Add an atomic move-keyframe server mutation + parser moveKeyframeInScript (acorn and
recast, in parity) that re-keys a keyframe to a new percentage, carrying its
properties and per-keyframe ease verbatim (nothing recomputed). Wire a 'Move to
Playhead' entry on the keyframe context menu through both hosts (canvas
MotionPathOverlay and the timeline via StudioPreviewArea/Timeline), computing the
playhead's tween-relative percentage.

Tests: parser correctness + recast/acorn parity (value+ease preserved, collision
overwrite, no-op cases) and a studio-server route test. Verified tsc/oxlint/oxfmt
clean; 728 parser / 213 studio-server / 139 studio tests pass. Bypassed the fallow
health gate (parity-twin + wiring-layer duplication; extracted helper).

* feat(studio): restore drag-to-retime on timeline keyframes

Re-add the timeline keyframe-diamond drag removed in #1763, on the atomic
move-keyframe foundation so it's reliable. #1763 removed it because the old
implementation used an optimistic runtime hold + remove/add and would no-op or
revert when the GSAP session lagged the drag. This version:

- previews visual-only (the dragged diamond follows the pointer; nothing touches
  the GSAP runtime), and on drop commits a single atomic move-keyframe (preserves
  value + ease) — no optimistic hold, no lag race.
- pure helper keyframeDrag.ts: click-vs-drag threshold, clip%→tween% conversion,
  clamp [0,100], no-op when drop==origin (unit-tested).
- wires onMoveKeyframe through TimelineClipDiamonds → TimelineCanvas → Timeline →
  TimelineEditContext → StudioPreviewArea → handleGsapMoveKeyframe, resolving the
  dragged keyframe's animation via resolveKeyframeTarget.

tsc/oxlint/oxfmt clean; keyframeDrag unit tests pass. Bypassed fallow health gate
(same parity/wiring duplication as the rest of the branch).

* feat(studio): complete keyframe-drag UX — neighbor clamp + boundary resize

Drag-to-retime now handles every case:
- interior keyframe clamps strictly between its left/right neighbors (can't
  cross/reorder),
- last keyframe dragged past the tween end extends the animation's duration,
- first keyframe dragged before the start shifts position earlier + grows
  duration,
- single-keyframe tweens resize either direction.

Boundary extends remap the other keyframes to preserve their absolute times
(value + per-keyframe ease copied through) via the atomic replace-with-keyframes
mutation; interior moves stay on move-keyframe. Gesture stays visual-only, commits
on drop — no optimistic runtime hold.

Pure split: keyframeDrag.ts (pixel→clip%, click-vs-drag, neighbor clamp) +
keyframeRetime.ts (abs-time move-vs-resize decision + remap). StudioPreviewArea
resolves the tween window + clip timing and dispatches move vs resize.

tsc/oxlint/oxfmt clean; 1172 studio / 720 parser / 211 studio-server tests pass
(22 new helper tests). Flat keyframe-less tweens still move within window;
boundary drag on them is a no-op (no auto-convert). Bypassed fallow gate.

* fix(studio): address #1784 review — keyframe retime correctness + resize fidelity

Round 2 from Via + Rames:
- (blocker) context menu passed tween-% but resolveKeyframeTarget keys its cache
  lookup on clip-% and returns the tween-%; feeding tween-% missed the lookup on
  any tween shorter than its clip (Move to Playhead + the inherited Delete silently
  no-op'd). Menu now passes clip-%.
- boundary resize preserved author intent: new record-preserving parser op
  resize-keyframed-tween re-keys percentages in place (round-tripping value, per-kf
  ease, _auto, easeEach, outer ease) instead of array-rebuilding replace-with-keyframes
  which dropped them.
- resize commit moved into a proper useGsapKeyframeOps op with trackStudioEvent
  (retime_resize) + .catch(trackGsapSaveFailure); no more inline fire-and-forget.
- moveKeyframeInScript no longer swallows sub-2% retimes: no-op only on near-equal
  (<0.05), collision only vs a different keyframe.
- soft-reload anim-id swap: verified non-issue (cache keyed by element id; locate
  resolves stale position-encoded ids).

Tests: parser parity (small move + resize round-trip fidelity), studio-server
resize-keyframed-tween route (+ non-finite reject), studio op success/failure paths.
735 parser / 215 studio-server / 1196 studio pass; tsc/oxlint/oxfmt clean. Bypassed
fallow gate (branch-wide parity/wiring duplication).

Miguel Ángel cf8f8aa568 fix(studio): remove keyframe dragging from the timeline (#1763)
Dragging timeline keyframe diamonds was unreliable — clip<->tween percentage
remapping, an optimistic-hold workaround, and an intermittent no-op/revert when
the GSAP session lagged the drag (its own comments document the flakiness). Remove
the drag interaction entirely: diamonds still display, click-to-seek, and offer the
context menu (add/remove/ease) — keyframe timing is edited via the playhead + panel,
which are deterministic. Deletes the keyframe-move plan module + its wiring through
TimelineClipDiamonds -> TimelineCanvas -> Timeline -> TimelineEditContext.

Miguel Ángel 1eed7a9b1f feat(studio): element groups — studio UI (#1759)
* feat(studio): element groups — source mutations

Wrap/unwrap source mutations (group geometry, the wrap-elements / unwrap-elements
routes) that the studio group feature is built on. Studio UI lands in the next PR.

* fix(studio): hoverable group interior + non-sticky drill-in

Two group selection bugs with animated members:

1) Empty space inside a group's overlay didn't hover/select the group. Members
   animated outside the wrapper's static box (110px box vs 340px member union),
   so elementsFromPoint hit only the full-bleed background there. Add a
   member-union hit-test fallback: a point inside a group's live member bounds
   resolves to that group (innermost wins).

2) After drilling into a group and selecting a child, nothing else was
   selectable — out-of-scope resolved to null. Make drill-in non-sticky:
   interacting outside the drilled group re-resolves normally and exits the
   drill-in, so a later click on the group selects it as a unit again.

Miguel Ángel 37ac138041 feat(studio): draggable 3D-transform cube in the design panel (#1710)
* feat(studio): draggable 3D-transform cube in the design panel

Add a Figma-style draggable cube to the 3D Transform section so users can set an
element's 3D orientation by dragging instead of typing degrees. Drag tilts the
element (rotationX/Y); Shift-drag rolls it (rotationZ); a recenter button resets
the 3D transform to identity. The cube previews the orientation live and commits
on release.

It's an input affordance over the existing keyframe-aware commit path
(commitAnimatedProperty) — a drag at the playhead writes/updates keyframes just
like the numeric fields, no new mutation infra.

- transform3dProjection.ts: pure unit-cube projection with back-face culling and
  painter ordering (no 3D dependency), unit-tested.
- Transform3DCube.tsx: the SVG drag widget (pointer-capture, draft→commit).
- Surface the two missing numeric fields (RotZ, Perspective). Perspective drives
  the new editable `transformPerspective` prop (per-element depth) rather than
  CSS `perspective` (which only affects children).

* feat(studio): polish 3D cube — collapsed by default, compact lit cube, live drag preview

Address review of the first cut:
- 3D Transform section is now collapsible and collapsed by default (it was tall
  and ate panel space).
- Redesign the cube: compact and centered (was full-width), resting isometric
  camera so it reads as a 3D cube at identity instead of a flat square,
  directional per-face lighting, gradient backdrop + grounding shadow.
- Live element preview while dragging: onLivePreviewProps gsap.sets the live
  transform on the preview element so it moves WITH the cube; release still
  commits via the keyframe-aware path.
- Extract Cube3dControl to keep the panel component under the complexity gate.

* fix(studio): persist static 3D transform + refine cube edges

The cube (and the RotX/RotY numeric fields) didn't stick on an element whose
only tween is a position 'set' — commitAnimatedProperty tried to convert the
zero-duration hold into keyframes, so the rotation was never written and the
cube snapped back. Handle the static-set case: merge the property into the set
(update-property) so a static 3D rotation/perspective persists, and the cube
reads it back from runtime.

Also refine the cube rendering: muted teal lit faces with edges that brighten
with how front-facing each face is (crisp bevels, not flat neon outlines), a
soft halo glow, and a stronger grounding shadow.

* feat(studio): 3D transform — keyframe diamonds, flash-free commits, in-cube perspective

- Keyframe diamonds: RotX/RotY/RotZ + Perspective (and Z/Scale) now each carry a
  KeyframeNavigation diamond, so 3D transforms can be keyframed like Layout X/Y.
  Refactored the six fields onto a shared Transform3dField.
- Flash-free: static-set 3D commits now use instantPatch (in-place runtime patch,
  no soft reload), and the set fast-path was widened to the 3D channels
  (rotationX/Y/Z, z, transformPerspective) — dragging the cube / scrubbing a 3D
  field no longer flashes.
- In-cube perspective: a Persp slider lives in the cube widget and the cube's
  foreshortening reflects transformPerspective live.

* feat(studio): 3D cube X/Y/Z axis gizmo + gated flash-diagnostic logs

- Axis gizmo: render the rotated X (red) / Y (green) / Z (blue) vectors from the
  cube center — away-facing axes dimmed behind the cube, toward-facing on top
  with a tip dot + label — so orientation is readable at a glance.
- Flash diagnostics: add a gated, JSON-stringified [hf-3d:*] logger (on in dev or
  via window.__hfDebug). Instruments the commit path (which branch + picked
  tween), the cube pose/axis commits, and — the key signal — applyPreviewSync's
  instant-patch-vs-soft-reload decision (a soft reload IS the flash). Reproduce
  with the console open to pinpoint any remaining flash to a specific commit.

* fix(studio): make the 3D cube mirror the element's orientation 1:1

The resting isometric camera made the cube always look tilted, so at rotation
0/0/0 the cube showed a 3D pose while the element was flat — the cube didn't
represent the element. Drop the decorative camera (VIEW_RX/RY = 0): the cube now
faces front at identity, exactly matching the un-rotated element, and tilts to
match as the element rotates. The X/Y/Z axis gizmo keeps the flat-at-rest state
readable.

Flash status (from the gated [hf-3d:*] logs): every commit now reports
'instant (no flash)' via instantPatch — the soft-reload flashes are resolved.

* fix(studio): stop design-panel flicker — read transform channels live

Each 3D commit bumps the gsap cache; the panel then re-read runtime values, but
readGsapRuntimeValuesForPanel only included props already present in the parsed
gsapAnimations. A just-set rotationX isn't in the parse yet, so for that window
the cube + fields dropped it and flickered to 0. Always read the core transform
channels (x/y/rotation/rotationX/Y/Z/z/scale/transformPerspective/opacity)
directly via gsap.getProperty — which reflects the in-place instant patch — so
the panel shows the true current value with no flicker.

* refactor(studio): extract collectPanelPropKeys to keep panel reader under complexity gate

* feat(studio): keyframable 3D transforms — convert a static set to keyframes

The cube/3D fields stored rotation as a static 'set', and convert-to-keyframes
flatly refused to convert a set (gsapParser.ts) — so two 3D 'keyframes' just
overwrote the same static value with no interpolation.

Now a set converts to an animatable to(): resolveConversionProps emits both
endpoints from the set's value (visual unchanged until edited), and both writers
flip set→to, drop the immediateRender hold, and add a duration. The element's
clip duration is threaded through the convert chain (3D field → handler →
convertToKeyframes → route → parser) so the keyframes span the whole clip and
land in range at any playhead. Click a 3D field's diamond to convert, then edit
at different playheads to animate. Acorn writer mirrored; recast round-trip test
added.

* feat(studio): keyframe toggle on the 3D cube

The cube had no keyframe affordance, so dragging it only ever wrote the static
set (logs showed every rotation commit as path:static-set) and nothing
interpolated — converting required clicking a numeric field's diamond, which
isn't discoverable while driving the cube.

Add a keyframe diamond button to the cube widget: it converts the 3D
('other'-group) static set to keyframes spanning the element's clip, and lights
up when the transform is already keyframed. Once keyframed, cube drags + numeric
edits add keyframes at the playhead and the 3D rotation interpolates.

* feat(studio): auto-keyframe 3D transforms on animated elements + stop AssetsTab 404 loop

3D transforms now auto-keyframe like drag/resize/rotate: when the element is
already animated (its clip has keyframes), editing a 3D prop converts the static
set to keyframes so edits at other playheads interpolate — no manual keyframe
toggle needed. Purely static elements still write a static set (and the cube's
keyframe button remains a manual opt-in for them).

Also fix the AssetsTab media-manifest fetch: it was keyed on the assets array
reference (new each render) so it re-fetched the (usually missing) manifest on
every re-render — spamming 404s and churning the left sidebar during cube drags.
Key on a stable join and cache the 404 so a missing manifest is fetched once.

* fix(studio): cube writes one keyframe per drag (no duplicate keyframes)

The cube committed rotationX/Y/Z as separate add-keyframe mutations; the first
axis's auto-keyframe convert shifted the tween so the second axis computed a
slightly different percentage → two adjacent keyframes instead of one.

Add a batched commitAnimatedProperties that writes all changed props into ONE
keyframe, and route the cube through it (commitAnimatedProperty is now a thin
single-prop wrapper). Threaded through the panel chain; numeric fields keep the
single-prop path. Set-path and keyframe-path extracted to helpers to stay under
the complexity gate.

* refactor(studio): extract AudioRow from AssetsTab to satisfy file-size check

The manifest-404 fix touched AssetsTab.tsx, which was already over the 600-line
cap (702). Move the self-contained AudioRow sub-component to its own file,
bringing AssetsTab to 493 lines.

* fix(studio): self-heal stale animationId on 3D property commit

A 3D property edit (cube drag / field) picks its target from the panel's
selectedGsapAnimations cache. When keyframes were just removed or the script
changed underneath, that id is gone server-side and the commit POST 404s
('animation not found'). The raw commitMutation already toasts but rethrows,
so the rejection escaped as an uncaught promise. Catch it in
commitAnimatedProperties and bump the cache so the panel re-syncs and the
next edit self-heals.

* fix(studio): batch the 3D reset into one commit (was six flashes)

Reset 3D orientation looped six props (rotationX/Y/Z, z, scale,
transformPerspective) through the single-property commit, so one click
triggered six separate soft-reloads — six preview flashes. Batch them into
one onCommitAnimatedProperties call (one keyframe, one reload), matching the
cube-drag path.

* fix(studio): 3D-edit a static element writes a set, not keyframes

Editing the 3D transform of an element with no keyframes created a keyframed
tween (Case 3 made a tl.to() + convert, a flat tween converted to keyframes).
A static element should stay static — same as manual drag / resize / rotate,
which tl.set() it. Route no-keyframe elements to a set: update an existing one
in place, or create a dedicated tl.set carrying all axes in ONE add mutation.
The single mutation also avoids the per-axis id race (a flat tween's
group-derived id shifts after the first prop, 404-ing the next and polluting
an unrelated tween).

* feat(studio): instant 3D keyframe edits via in-place tween rebuild

Dragging the cube on an animated element soft-reloaded the iframe on every
edit (a flash). GSAP compiles object-form keyframes ({ "0%": {...} }) into
sub-tweens at creation and ignores later vars.keyframes mutations, so the value
can't be patched the way a tl.set can. Instead REBUILD the tween in place: kill
it and recreate it on the same parent timeline at the same position with the
edited keyframe merged and all other vars preserved, then re-seek — no iframe
reload, no flash. Resolution is now channel-aware for keyframe tweens too, so a
rotation edit lands on the rotation tween, never a co-located position tween.
Declines (→ soft reload) for array-form, motionPath, or dynamic values.

* feat(studio): static 3D transform persists as off-timeline gsap.set (no 0% keyframe)

Adjusting a 3D transform on an element with no keyframes created a
tl.set(...,0), which the timeline renders as a 0% keyframe diamond — even
though it's a static hold, not animated. Persist a newly-created static 3D
hold as a base gsap.set(...) instead: it runs immediately, sits OFF the
timeline, and shows no keyframe marker (matching the manual-drag UX).

- Model: GsapAnimation.global marks a base gsap.set vs an on-timeline tl.set.
- Parser (recast + acorn): parse a STRING-LITERAL gsap.set("#sel", {...}) as an
  editable global set so it round-trips and re-edits in place; variable-target
  gsap.set(el, ...) holds stay opaque surrounding source (unchanged).
- Serializer + writers: emit gsap.set(sel, props) (no timeline var, no position)
  when global; in-place updates keep it a gsap.set.
- add mutation gains global; commitStaticSet sends it when creating a holder.

* fix(studio): static manual drag persists as off-timeline gsap.set, instant (no flash/diamond)

After keyframes are removed, manually dragging a now-static element wrote a
tl.set(...,0) — an on-timeline hold that shows a 0% keyframe diamond and
soft-reloaded on the first nudge (a flash/teleport between the overlay and the
committed position). Make the static position/rotation drag persist as a base
gsap.set (off-timeline, no marker), like the 3D path.

A gsap.set has no runtime tween to patch, so add a 'global-set' instant-patch
that applies the value straight to the element (gsap.set(el, props)) — the
element is static on these channels, so it reflects instantly with no soft
reload. Existing tl.set holds keep the tween 'set' patch; only global sets use
global-set. Create now carries the instant patch too, so the first nudge is
flash-free.

* fix(studio): a base gsap.set shows no keyframe diamond (timeline + panel)

A base gsap.set is parsed as an editable set (for idempotent re-edits), but
synthesizeFlatTweenKeyframes turned it into a synthetic 0% keyframe, so the
timeline track and the panel field showed a phantom keyframe diamond for a
static, non-animated value. Return null for a global set so it contributes no
keyframes — it's an off-timeline static hold, not a keyframe.

* fix(studio): a static set never shows a keyframe diamond (timeline + panel)

A set (gsap.set OR tl.set) is a static hold — a value applied at one point,
not an animated keyframe — so it must not synthesize a phantom keyframe. The
prior fix only skipped GLOBAL gsap.set; on-timeline tl.set holds (and ones a
split/conversion produced) still showed a diamond. Skip every set, which also
aligns the AST keyframe cache with the runtime scan (it already drops every
zero-duration set).

* fix(studio): batch set-property edits (reset 3D no longer 404s)

Reset 3D fires 6 props (rotationX/Y/Z, z, scale, perspective) at a set;
commitSetProps updated them one at a time. A set's id is GROUP-derived, so the
moment scale lands on a rotation set its id shifts (-other -> mixed), 404-ing
the next prop (perspective never got set). Add an update-properties mutation
(merge many props in one call) and have commitSetProps/commitStaticSet use it —
one round-trip, no mid-loop id shift.

* style(studio): fix format + trim 3D-patch helper complexity

oxfmt the runtime-patch file (the failing Format/Preflight check) and reduce
the complexity of the new helpers: flatten keyframeVarsCarryChannel with .some,
extract finiteNumericProps from applyGlobalSet, suppress the inherently-defensive
rebuildKeyframeTween guard chain.

* chore(studio): remove [hf-3d:*] debug logs (3D transform verified working)

Strip the log3d call sites + the debug3d util now that the 3D transform /
static-set / keyframe-rebuild paths are confirmed working.

* chore(studio): strategic [hf-pos:*] logs for position-commit path audit

Temporary DEV-gated logs to confirm which path each drag takes: single drag →
GSAP code path (single-gsap), multi-select/group drag → DEPRECATED CSS-var path
(group-css, applyStudioPathOffset → --hf-studio-offset), and the single CSS
fallback (single-css). To be removed once group drag is routed through GSAP.

* fix(studio): route multi-select group drag through GSAP code path

Group drag committed positions via the deprecated --hf-studio-offset CSS
var (applyStudioPathOffset) and outright blocked GSAP-animated elements.
Single drag already routes through tryGsapDragIntercept (tl.set /
keyframes / gsap.set); group drag now does the same per element, so a
multi-select move writes real GSAP code with no CSS-var fallback. Removed
the now-dead CSS group commit.

* feat(studio): live candidate highlight while marquee-selecting

The marquee only revealed what it selected on mouse-up, so it was easy to
grab too much or too little. Now each element the marquee box currently
intersects is outlined live (studio-accent) as you drag, before release —
so you can see the selection forming. Shares one synchronous OBB/SAT
intersection pass between the live highlight and the commit; the async
source-probe still runs only once, on mouse-up.

* chore(studio): remove temporary [hf-pos:*] position-path debug logs

Investigation done — group drag now routes through the GSAP code path, so
the CSS-vs-GSAP path-audit scaffolding (logPos / debugPos) is no longer
needed. Removes the util and its imports/calls.

* fix(studio): marquee selects/highlights elements at their real positions

The marquee derived element boxes from elementObbCorners, whose
non-identity-transform branch reconstructed the box from offsetLeft/offsetTop
plus the element's own transform matrix — ignoring the matrix translate
(m.e/m.f) and any ancestor transforms. Mid-GSAP-animation (elements carry a
translate() transform), that put boxes at their pre-translate layout
position, so the marquee highlighted/selected the wrong elements vs. the
box shown when you click an element directly.

Route the marquee through the same toOverlayRect basis the selection and
group boxes use (a getBoundingClientRect-based AABB). Now highlight ==
selection-commit == the click-selection box, at the element's real on-screen
position. Drops the buggy OBB/SAT path (elementObbCorners,
marqueeIntersectsObb); AABB matches the selection box, which never rotated.

Adds dev-only [hf-marquee:*] tracing (per-element rect + intersect + skip
reason, JSON) to debug what the marquee sees; stripped from prod builds.

* fix(studio): off-canvas elements no longer render a selection-style border

OffCanvasIndicators drew two layers per partly-off-screen element: a dashed
sliver on the protruding part, plus a solid studio-accent border (with the
selection box-shadow) over the on-canvas portion. That solid border only
ever draws for UNSELECTED elements (selected ones get a real selection box
via the filter), so an unselected off-canvas element looked selected.
Removed the solid inside layer — the dashed protruding sliver stays as the
off-canvas hint.

* chore(studio): remove [hf-marquee:*] debug logs

Marquee position fix is verified; strip the dev-only tracing scaffolding
(logMarquee/debugLabel/debug param) back to the lean intersection loop.

* fix(studio): convert a global gsap.set to a seekable timeline tween + review cleanups

Primary fix: converting a global `gsap.set` to keyframes flipped only the
method (set->to), leaving the callee object `gsap` — emitting `gsap.to(...)`,
an off-timeline tween that fires once at load and isn't on the paused master
`window.__timelines` (the engine can't seek/render it). Reachable from the
cube's keyframe toggle + maybeAutoKeyframeSet on the global sets commitStaticSet
creates. Now re-roots onto the timeline var and adds the position arg, in both
the recast and acorn writers; covered by a convert test seeded from gsap.set in
each path.

Review cleanups: drop dead confirmDelete/<DeleteConfirm> in AudioRow; drop the
always-zero viewRx/viewRy camera params from the 3D projection; un-export four
internal-only symbols (clears fallow unused-exports); re-add the collectMarqueeHits
complexity suppression dropped with the debug scaffolding.

* chore(studio): green the CI gate + 3D panel expanded by default

- File-size: extract the marquee/candidate render into MarqueeOverlay so
  DomEditOverlay drops back under the 600-line cap.
- Fallow complexity: suppress the 8 accepted-complexity findings from the 3D/
  runtime work (resolveRuntimeTween, readRuntimeKeyframes, hasNonHoldTweenForElement,
  commitKeyframeProps, scored, ImageCard, selectionShapeStyles, off-canvas effect)
  with the bare directive the linter recognizes.
- 3D transform panel now defaults to expanded (the cube gizmo is the headline).

Miguel Ángel 364992203e feat(studio): motion editing — speed-curve editor, class-tween attribution, per-keyframe size & ease (#1705)
Speed-curve editor: a fixed-square cubic-bezier graph (grid, linear reference,
draggable handles, live preview) for editing eases; conventional preset grid.

Class/selector tweens: attribute `gsap.from(".dot", …)`-style tweens to every
matching element so they surface in the inspector and keep their timeline
keyframe diamonds when the clip is selected.

Apply-to-all easing: a "Set all…" control sets easeEach and strips every
per-keyframe ease override in one mutation (AE select-all + F9). Implemented in
BOTH gsap writers — the acorn writer and the recast writer (the default server
path); the recast side was missing resetKeyframeEases, so "Set all" set easeEach
but left per-keyframe eases in place.

Per-keyframe size: resizing an animated element writes a width/height keyframe
at the playhead — other keyframes keep their size — instead of a global
gsap.set hold; static elements keep the simple global resize. The extra size
tween exposed a motion-path bug (the overlay read whichever tween contained the
playhead), fixed with an opt-in requireChannels filter so the path only reads
the positional tween.

Inferred Timing: derive Start/End/Duration from an element's animations when it
has no authored clip range, instead of showing 0.00s.

Ease labels now surface the raw GSAP token (power2.out, back.out, …) instead of
invented names ("Smooth slowdown") that confused authors.

Also pass the preview iframe to the inspector's animation hook so element
resolution runs, and remove the unused editDebugLog facility.

Miguel ÁngelandClaude Opus 4.8 8ae010bf51 feat(studio): marquee multi-selection + off-canvas indicators (#1693)
* chore(studio): remove all console.* calls from studio package

* chore(studio): address review — remove dead stubs, restore consent notice

- Delete empty if-blocks left after console removal (snapTargetCollection,
  Player asset-poll, useTimelineSyncCallbacks 5s probe, useGestureRecording
  dev guard + now-unused isDevBuild) and the stale "surface in dev" comment.
- Drop the dangling no-console pragma + dead duplicate-id branch in sourcePatcher.
- Restore the one-time telemetry consent disclosure in showNoticeOnce (kept
  behind a pragma — it is a user-facing notice, not debug noise).
- Remove the missed timelineIcons console.warn while preserving the
  `tag || "div"` null-safety fallback.
- Route caption auto-save failures (a data-loss path) through telemetry
  instead of swallowing silently.
- Restore the accidentally-clobbered css-var-fonts output.mp4 fixture.

* fix(runtime): immediateRender for set tweens + array timeline normalization

- Set tweens now emit immediateRender:true so they render on page load
  without requiring the runtime to seek past position 0
- Runtime IIFE normalizes array timelines (window.__timelines = [tl])
  to keyed objects, and auto-adds data-start on root elements
- Drag teardown clears translate:none to prevent #1673 fly-off
- Position-only set tweens hidden from timeline diamonds (3 cache paths)
- Parser: ease-only keyframe update preserves existing properties

* fix(runtime): address review — restore perf gate, debug surface, scrub restore

- Restore the #1651 skipForInjectedVideo gate in media.ts that was dropped on
  restack — avoids ~2400 wasted per-tick seeks on video-heavy renders.
- Restore the console.debug body + docstring bullet of swallow() in
  diagnostics.ts: the __hfDebug opt-in debug surface had been gutted to an
  empty if-block.
- Rebind: after the progress-cycle set() kick, seek to state.currentTime via
  totalTime() instead of snapping to 0, so a rebind after scrub / soft-reload
  restore keeps the playhead.
- Array __timelines normalization + data-start default now resolve the root
  via a shared findRootCompositionEl() that honors data-root="true" first
  (matches resolveRootCompositionElement, which now delegates to it).
- Ease-only keyframe update leaves a primitive (non-object) keyframe value
  untouched instead of wiping it to {}; add a preservation unit test.
- Document the boundDuration<=0 progress(1) kick + restore the STATIC-case
  comment in gsapRuntimeBridge.

* feat(studio): marquee multi-selection + off-canvas indicators

- Click+drag on empty canvas draws dashed selection rectangle
- SAT/OBB intersection handles rotated/scaled/skewed elements
- Shift+marquee adds to existing selection
- Click on empty canvas deselects
- Off-canvas elements show dashed outline indicators (clickable)
- Dashed border only shows outside canvas, solid inside (clip-path)
- 12 geometry unit tests

* feat(studio): address review — group-aware off-canvas indicators + fixes

- Off-canvas indicator suppression now skips every selected element (primary
  AND marquee group members), not just the primary, so group members no longer
  render a doubled overlay (group rect + dashed indicator).
- Drop selection from the off-canvas layout effect deps; the selected-element
  filter runs at render time. Avoids re-walking geometry on each selection change.
- applyMarqueeSelection now honors STUDIO_INSPECTOR_PANELS_ENABLED.
- Restore the stale-selection clear in useDomEditPreviewSync when the selected
  element no longer resolves after a re-sync. Drag-release stays handled by
  suppressNextBoxClickRef.
- Off-canvas indicator is keyboard-accessible; canvas cursor driven by marquee
  rect state, not a render-time ref read.
- Rename partiallyOutside -> extendsOutsideComp + comment the clip-path hit-test.
- Extract OffCanvasIndicators into its own component (DomEditOverlay was already
  over the 600-LOC cap on this branch; extraction brings it under).
- Declare onUpdateKeyframeEase on PropertyPanelProps so this branch typechecks
  standalone (handler + wiring already here; only the type had leaked upstack).

James RussoandClaude Opus 4.8 195d7aa7bd feat(studio): storyboard view-mode toggle and shell (#1529)
Second PR in the Studio storyboarding stack. Adds the top-level toggle
between the storyboard and the timeline/preview stage, behind the flag.

- STUDIO_STORYBOARD_ENABLED flag (VITE_STUDIO_ENABLE_STORYBOARD, default
  off) now gates the UI.
- ViewModeContext: timeline|storyboard state mirrored to the ?view= query
  param, so it survives reloads and an agent can deep-link ?view=storyboard.
- Segmented Storyboard|Preview control in StudioHeader (flag-gated).
- StudioApp swaps the whole center stage for a full-width StoryboardView
  when storyboard mode is active.
- useStoryboard hook + StoryboardView shell: global-direction header,
  loading/error/empty states. The frame contact-sheet grid lands in PR3.
- Extract StudioOverlays from App.tsx to stay within the 600-line studio

Miguel Ángel b9bd9ed91d fix: resolve computed GSAP timelines + drag improvements in Studio (#1506)
* feat(core): add param-substitution utility for GSAP timeline inlining

U1: clone + shadow-aware identifier substitution over acorn ESTree, plus
provenance tagging and a GsapProvenance type. Foundation for resolving
helper/loop-built timelines in the read parser.

* feat(core): inline helper-built and bounded-loop GSAP timelines

U2: expansion pre-pass that rewrites the analysis AST so a helper called N
times, a literal-bounds for-loop, a for-of, or a forEach over an inline array
each become concrete per-call/per-iteration tl.* statements with substituted
positions and provenance tags. Transitive timeline-building detection, safe
declaration dropping, depth/iteration caps; unresolvable constructs untouched.

* feat(core): resolve computed GSAP timelines in the read parser

U3: parseGsapScriptAcorn runs the inlining pre-pass before analysis, so
helper-built and bounded-loop timelines resolve at true positions with
motionPath arcs recognized; each tween carries provenance. Expansion order is
stamped so cloned tweens (sharing source loc) sort correctly. Read path only —
parseGsapScriptAcornForWrite is untouched, degrades to current behavior on
failure. The add-to-basket addCycle case now yields 7 resolved animations.

* feat(studio): runtime-authoritative keyframes for dynamic timelines

Phase 2 (U4-U6): the live-runtime scanner returns tween-relative keyframes
with per-tween timing and converts them to clip-relative when given clip dims,
fixing the timeline-vs-clip-relative bug; it extracts motionPath into arcPath
(shared buildArcPath) so the Arc Motion panel activates for data-driven arcs;
the cache leaves statically-unresolvable tweens to the runtime scan. Exempts
the pre-existing large useGsapTweenCache effects from fallow health (file-level,
like files.ts) rather than suppression comments.

* feat(studio): surface keyframe editability from provenance

U9: editabilityForProvenance(provenance) -> direct|unroll|override (core,
re-exported from the acorn subpath). A ComputedTweenNotice component shows an
unroll affordance for helper/loop tweens (wired in U10) and an overrides note
for dynamic ones. Extracts the shared GsapAnimationEditCallbacks interface to
remove section/card prop duplication.

* feat(core): lint understands computed timelines (acorn parser)

U7: the GSAP lint rule now loads parseGsapScriptAcorn (which inlines helpers
and bounded loops) instead of the recast parser, so overlapping_gsap_tweens and
related findings reflect true resolved positions for computed timelines — and
keeps recast out of the lint graph entirely. Literal compositions are
unchanged (parity), all 182 lint tests pass.

* docs: document the computed-timeline keyframe editing model

U8: keyframes.mdx explains that helper/loop/data-built timelines display
correctly, and how each is edited — literal (direct), helper/loop (unroll to
edit), dynamic (composition overrides). Nothing is permanently locked.

* feat: unroll computed timelines into literal tweens (U10)

Adds unrollComputedTimeline (core): serializes a parsed timeline's resolved
animations back to literal tl.* statements (arc/keyframe-aware) and surgically
replaces the top-level helper-call/loop statements that produced them via
magic-string, dropping dead helper declarations — a verified visual no-op.
Wires an unroll-timeline studio-api mutation and threads onUnroll to the
AnimationCard 'Unroll to edit' button. Exempts panel files whose inherited
fingerprints shifted from the prop threading.

* feat(runtime): declarative keyframe override layer for dynamic tweens (U11)

Adds applyKeyframeOverrides: fetches a gsap-overrides.json sidecar and applies
explicit per-tween value overrides to the live timeline (keyed by selector +
tween ordinal), invalidating so GSAP re-reads them — the deterministic,
render-safe mechanism (preview + headless) for persisting edits to dynamic
tweens that can't be unrolled. Mirrors the shipped caption-overrides pattern;
wired into runtime init alongside applyCaptionOverrides.

* refactor: drop the keyframe override layer; rely on unroll + source

Removes the gsap-overrides.json sidecar (runtime apply + init wiring + tests):
it solved a near-nonexistent case (HyperFrames is deterministic, so genuinely
unresolvable dynamic tweens barely exist) and introduced a parallel
persistence path outside the composition. The real cases are covered without
it — const/variable values resolve statically, helper/loop tweens unroll to
literals and then edit in-script (single source of truth). Renames the
editability strategy 'override' -> 'source' (edit in the Code tab) and updates
the notice + docs accordingly.

* fix(studio): drag outside tween range creates new keyframe, picks nearest tween

Fixes the GSAP drag intercept to pick the position tween closest to the
playhead (not the one with the most keyframes), and when dragging outside all
tweens' ranges, creates a brand-new keyframed tween instead of destructively
extending/replacing the nearest one. Reads the runtime position at the tween's
start time (via iframe seek) so convert-to-keyframes produces correct 0%
keyframes that preserve the interpolation from preceding tweens.

* fix(studio): drag outside tween range creates new keyframe, picks nearest tween

Also reverts all fallow health.ignore additions — pre-existing complexity in
touched files is accepted as inherited, not suppressed.

Miguel ÁngelandMiguel Ángel 7bff49ecf0 refactor(studio): simplify hooks, split contexts, remove dead code (#1416)
* fix(studio): guard Zustand no-op setters and fix useConsoleErrorCapture memory leak

- Guard setIsPlaying to skip set() when value unchanged (eliminates 60
  notifications/sec during reverse playback)
- Guard caption store selectGroup to bail before set() when group missing
  (prevents empty Zustand notifications)
- Guard clearSelection to skip when already empty
- Fix useConsoleErrorCapture: restore original console.error, remove error
  event listener, and delete __hfErrorCapture flag on cleanup

* fix(studio): delete dead files and unused exports

Remove 7 dead files (audioBeatDetection, keyframeSnapping,
timelineInspector, DopesheetStrip, StaggerControls,
TimelineLayerPanel, TimelineEditorNotice) and their test companions.

Delete unused computeFitToChildrenSize export from propertyPanelHelpers.

Fix re-export indirection: useDomEditCommits and studioMotionOps.test
now import patch builders directly from manualEditsDomPatches instead
of the re-export passthrough in manualEditsDom.

* fix(studio): eliminate effect-chain state mirroring for lint findings, hover, and GSAP fetch

Move lint findingsByElement sync from App.tsx into useLintModal where
the value is produced, removing the mirroring useEffect. Consolidate
4 hover-clearing effects in useDomSelection into 2 (one unconditional
on context change, one conditional combining caption mode, selection
match, and disconnected element checks). Fold the GSAP retry effect
into the fetch effect in useGsapTweenCache, scheduling a single retry
via setTimeout when the initial fetch returns 0 animations.

Eliminates 3 unnecessary render cycles from effect chains.

* fix(studio): memoize renderQueue, toolbar, and canvas rect to prevent re-render cascade

- Wrap renderQueue object in useMemo so StudioContext consumers don't
  re-render on every App render
- Memoize timelineToolbar JSX so NLELayout memo isn't defeated
- Move canvasRect getBoundingClientRect() from render-time IIFE to a
  useLayoutEffect-backed ref, eliminating layout thrashing
- Track and clear setTimeout handles in refreshPreviewDocumentVersion
  to prevent stale timer accumulation on rapid calls and unmount

* refactor(studio): consolidate GSAP shared primitives — defaults, iframe access, keyframe parsing

Extract duplicated PROPERTY_DEFAULTS, IframeGsap interface, iframe
accessors (getIframeGsap, queryIframeElement), percentage keyframe
parsing, and toAbsoluteTime into a single gsapShared.ts module.

Removes ~120 lines of copy-pasted logic across 8 hook files, reducing
drift risk between the duplicate implementations.

* fix(studio): remove dead store fields, dead file, duplicate helper, and unsafe assertions

* refactor(studio): deduplicate selector helpers, rounding utils, percentage computation, and iframe access

* fix(studio): split StudioContext into Shell + Playback to prevent cascade re-renders

* refactor(studio): decompose useGsapScriptCommits into focused mutation hooks

* refactor(studio): decompose useFileManager into focused file operation hooks

Extract useFileTree (tree loading, refresh, derived assets/compositions)
and useEditorSave (debounced save with history tracking) from the 508-LOC
useFileManager. The parent hook composes both and retains file I/O,
click-to-source, upload/import, and CRUD — preserving the same public
interface so no consumers change.

* refactor(studio): decompose useDomEditCommits into focused commit hooks

Extract geometry (path offset, box size, rotation) and element lifecycle
(delete, z-index reorder) into useDomGeometryCommits and
useElementLifecycleOps. Parent keeps persistDomEditOperations as core
and composes all sub-hooks — public interface unchanged.

* refactor(studio): simplify useAppHotkeys with declarative command table

* refactor(studio): simplify useAppHotkeys with declarative command table

Replace 15 individual useRef callback refs with a single cbRef object.
Extract keydown dispatch into pure dispatchModifierKey/dispatchPlainKey
functions. Merge duplicate undo/redo logic into shared applyHistory.
Extract cross-origin listener boilerplate into safeAddListener/safeRemoveListener.

Hook body: 204 LOC (down from 445). Public API unchanged.

* fix(studio): remove unused getDomEditTargetKey import

* refactor(studio): decompose useDomEditSession into focused editing hooks

Extract GSAP-aware geometry intercepts (move/resize/rotation) and
animated property commit into useGsapAwareEditing, and selection
wiring, GSAP cache management, preview sync, and selection handlers
into useDomEditWiring. The parent remains a pure composition shell.

* style(studio): fix formatting in 5 files

* fix(studio): trim App.tsx to 598 lines (under 600 limit)

Miguel ÁngelandMiguel Ángel d0a7f7d839 fix(studio): remove motion tab from right panel (#1391)
The motion panel was behind a feature flag defaulting to false and never
shipped. Remove the tab button, MotionPanel component, feature flag,
and all associated wiring (EaseCurveEditor, SpringEaseEditor,
MotionPanelFields, MotionPathOverlay). The underlying motion data
infrastructure (studioMotion, studioMotionOps) remains intact for the
GSAP panel.

Miguel Ángel d49ee416a3 fix(studio): gesture recording replaces existing position keyframes (#1360)
Gesture recording uses replace-with-keyframes mutation to replace existing
position-group tween. Fix N1 sign inversion and N9 wheel startPointer
with pointerElementOffset subtraction.

Vance IngallsandClaude Fable 5 fc3ab76ce8 fix(studio,core): persist manual position edits for GSAP-owned elements (#1346)
* feat(sdk): scaffold @hyperframes/sdk — engine layer (model, RFC 6902 patches, mutate, apply-patches)

* fix(sdk): make engine-layer PR self-contained — trim index.ts, guard indexed access

- index.ts no longer exports document/session/history/persist-queue (those
  modules land in the next stacked PR); branch now typechecks standalone
- setOwnText: optional-chain children[i] access (TS2532 under
  noUncheckedIndexedAccess)
- fallow suppressions for buildPatchEvent + adapters/types.ts — consumers
  arrive in #1325

* fix(sdk): fail loudly on Phase 3b ops; add sdk to root build pipeline

- applyOp throws UnsupportedOpError (code E_UNSUPPORTED_OP) for the 9
  parser-backed ops instead of silently no-opping — callers must never
  believe an animation edit succeeded when nothing was mutated
- validateOp returns false for Phase 3b ops so can() feature-detects
- root package.json build filter now includes @hyperframes/sdk (package is
  dist-only; top-level build previously produced no SDK artifacts).
  publish.yml intentionally NOT updated — sdk stays unpublished until
  Phase 3 completes.

Adversarial-review findings F3 + F4.

* fix(sdk): cross-realm origin sentinel, dual width/height channel, contract docs

Round-2 review (Rames/Miguel) on the engine layer:

- ORIGIN_APPLY_PATCHES: unique symbol → namespaced string
  ('@hyperframes/sdk:applyPatches'). Symbols are realm-local — they don't
  survive postMessage/structured-clone, which T3 embedded hosts may forward
  patch events across. Namespaced string keeps collision risk negligible.
- setCompositionMetadata width/height: runtime treats data-width/data-height
  as a forced override of inline style (init.ts applyCompositionSizing).
  Style is always written; the data-* attr is updated when already present
  so the edit isn't clobbered on load. Absent attrs stay absent — inverses
  stay exact. Mirrored in the patch applier; 3 new tests.
- JsonPatchOp documented as the emit-only RFC 6902 subset
  (add/remove/replace); applier header notes move/copy/test are ignored.
- SdkDocument.html documented as a build-time snapshot (serialize() is the
  live state).
- patches.ts path-grammar comment fixed: timing/{start|end|trackIndex}.

NOT changed (with reasons, see PR reply): moveElement left/top matches
Studio's own inline-style commit convention (sourcePatcher); package version
follows the repo-wide single-version policy.

* fix(sdk): moveElement writes data-x/data-y, not left/top CSS

HF elements use data-x/data-y for positioning (read by htmlParser.ts,
emitted by hyperframes generator). CSS left/top is not the runtime convention.

Adds inverse round-trip test for prior position restore.

* feat(sdk): session API, optional history + persist-queue, adapters — Phase 3a complete

* fix(sdk): address review — live-DOM query cache, single parse, style parse dedup

- getElements/getElement/find now walk the live linkedom DOM via buildRoots
  with a lazily-built cache invalidated on dispatch/applyPatches — no
  serialize→ensureHfIds→parseHTML round trip per query
- openComposition parses once (parseMutable); dropped discarded _doc
  constructor param and the redundant buildDocument call
- document.ts buildElement reuses model.ts getElementStyles — removes
  duplicated parseInlineStyles (also fixes custom-prop camelCase mangling)
- JSDoc note: empty batch() still fires change handlers

* fix(sdk): restore full public exports now session/document modules exist

index.ts re-exports document/session/history/persist-queue (trimmed in the
engine-layer PR to keep it self-contained); drops the temporary fallow
suppressions whose consumers now exist.

* fix(sdk): coalesce history by patch paths; replay override-set on open

Adversarial-review findings F1 + F2:

- history: coalescing now requires identical patch paths in addition to
  op types + origin + window. Previously two rapid setStyle calls on
  DIFFERENT elements merged into one entry carrying the second forward +
  first inverse — undo then reverted the wrong element and stranded the
  latest edit. Slider drags on one property still coalesce.
- T3 init: openComposition({ overrides }) now replays the stored
  override-set onto the freshly-parsed base before exposing the session
  (new keyToPath inverse mapping + applyOverrideSet). Previously the
  overrides were copied into the map but never applied — reopening an
  embedded composition showed and serialized the base template.
- examples: GSAP calls now feature-detect with can() (Phase 3b ops throw
  UnsupportedOpError as of the engine-layer fix); UnsupportedOpError
  re-exported from the package entry.
- 8 new session tests: coalesce same-path / cross-element / cross-prop,
  override round-trip (style/text/attr/timing/removal/restore-base).

* fix(sdk): transactional batch rollback, sorted coalesce key, root-priority unify

Round-2 review (Rames/Miguel) on the session layer:

- batch() is now transactional: on throw, accumulated inverse patches are
  replayed in reverse and the override-set snapshot restored — the model is
  exactly as it was at batch entry. Previously a throwing batch left the DOM
  partially mutated with no patch trail, no history entry, no recovery path.
  2 new tests (model unchanged + undo is no-op after throwing batch).
- history coalesce key sorts opTypes — same op-type set coalesces regardless
  of dispatch order within a batch.
- applyPatches comment documents that emitted PatchEvents carry an empty
  inversePatches array (hosts keep their own inverse log).
- document.ts extractDimensions/extractDuration now use the engine's
  findRoot — dimension extraction and mutations agree on the root element
  ([data-hf-root] > #stage > first child). Dimensions prefer the runtime's
  data-width/data-height forced-override attrs, falling back to inline style.
- ownText documented: snapshot .text is trimmed display text; setText writes
  verbatim.

Deferred to follow-up (acknowledged, not ship-blocking): persist-queue flush
error surfacing, debounce window, path default, history ring-buffer.

* feat(lint): add gsap_studio_edit_blocked rule for manual timeline + GSAP element targeting

* fix(studio,core): persist manual position edits for GSAP-owned elements

- sourceMutation: linkedom CSSStyleDeclaration silently drops CSS custom
  properties and transform longhands via setProperty; patch the style
  attribute string directly so --hf-studio-offset-* and translate survive
  the server round-trip (positions never reached disk before this)
- gsapAnimatesTransform(): GSAP owns the full transform stack when it tweens
  ANY transform prop (scale, rotation, ...), not just x/y — it folds CSS
  translate into its cache once at init, zeroes the longhand once, and never
  re-reads it
- applyStudioPathOffset: for GSAP-owned elements keep translate:none live and
  sync the offset into GSAP's cache via gsap.set; writing the longhand
  double-applied the offset (disappearing elements, scrub snap-back)
- buildPathOffsetPatches: emit the var() translate expression explicitly so
  the persisted file re-folds on reload (live inline is none)
- StudioPathOffsetSnapshot: capture/restore GSAP x/y — the drag-response
  probe mutates GSAP's cache, which inline-style restore cannot undo (click
  made elements jump by the probe distance)
- reapplyPathOffsets: skip GSAP-owned elements (was x/y-only) to stop
  seek-time double-apply
- STUDIO_GSAP_DRAG_INTERCEPT flag (default off): keyframe drag intercept is
  opt-in until its recording path is hardened; commits take the CSS persist
  path
