   - T5 E2E scrub tier (6 tests green): drag tracks currentTime+gains, turn-back reverses same file + re-locks start,
     detent-crossing commits+locks (via `window.__hefState` seam), wheel auto-scrubs+locks.
 - **Verification:** `node --test` 9 green · `pytest` 302 passed / 2 skipped · Playwright 6 green.

-- Operator by-eye "feel/smoothness" review still pending (no Chrome on box) — Phase 2 fixes scrub steppiness.
+- **Phase 2 DONE** (T7–T8): `transition_cmd`/`reverse_cmd` builders + `ALL_INTRA` (`-g 1 -keyint_min 1
+  -sc_threshold 0`), unit-tested; re-baked all 154 morphs all-intra (verified 93/93 I-frames on a sample),
+  173M→504M, largest clip ~5.8M; committed via git-LFS and pushed (154 LFS objects, 453MB).
+- **All 8 plan tasks complete. Branch `session-0026` pushed.** Final verification: `node --test` 9 green ·
+  Playwright 6 green · `pytest` 302 passed/2 skipped.
+- **Remaining:** merge to main + §9. Operator by-eye "feel/smoothness liked?" review is the one acceptance
+  criterion automated tests can't cover (simulator-first directive) — flagged for operator before/at merge.
+- **DECISION (operator): HOLD for eyeball first.** Branch `session-0026` stays UNMERGED; session NOT finalized.
+  Operator pulls + runs the sim locally to judge the scrub feel/smoothness, then says merge (or requests tweaks).
+  Resume = merge + `wgl-session-finalize` on operator go, OR tweak the feel (autoScrub ~600ms / seek throttle /
+  audio fade curve / no-auto-complete hold) then re-verify.
