+# Audio candidate pool — rotating pools per altitude (2026-06-26)
+
+Candidate soundtrack/ambience for the **"audio + video" setting**. Following operator
+feedback, each altitude now has a **rotating pool** (mirrors the video `Scale.pool`
+model — random pick per landing, or pairable per-clip).
+
+## Two audio layers per altitude (operator, 2026-06-26)
+
+The "audio + video" setting layers **two** kinds of audio per altitude:
+1. **Ambience / audio track** — the soundscape (waves, reef crackle, chorus, etc.).
+   **This is what we're sourcing now.**
+2. **Music track** — a separate composed musical layer. **Deferred** until the
+   ambience tracks are settled across all altitudes.
+
+Pools below are the **ambience** layer unless marked `music`. **Distinction (operator):**
+the ambience/soundtrack layer is an *environmental, real-world soundscape* (waves, reef,
+whale, room-tone hum) — **not composed music**. A musical pad/track, however nice, belongs
+in the music layer, even for "atmospheric" altitudes like cosmos/orbit.
+
+**Media is gitignored** (`simulator/sample_media/**/*.{wav,mp3,…}`); this file is the
+re-sourceable record. Files: `simulator/sample_media/audio/<altitude>/<name>.<ext>`,
+served at `/media/audio/<altitude>/<name>.<ext>`. Review gallery (gitignored):
+`simulator/static/review_audio.html` → `/review_audio.html` with the sim running.
+
+## Round-2 feedback applied (operator, session 2026-06-26)
+
+- **abyss** ✓ kept (blue-whale moan) · **coast** ✓ kept (waves + terns)
+- **cosmos** ✗ plasma static "hurt my ears" → replaced with 3 NASA **sonifications**
+- **orbit** ✗ whistlers "sound like lasers" → replaced with gentle Earth **chorus** (+ wind)
+- **reef** ✗ "shouldn't have whales (too deep for a reef)" → whale removed; now crackle + diver
+- Operator: *"try all three… rotation of audio like the video, or per-video audio track."*
+
+## Design arc
+
+Descending the dial is one journey: **cosmos & abyss** = vast/dark/sparse siblings;
+**coast** = warm human middle; **orbit & reef** = transitional membranes. The science
+recordings (NASA/NOAA) keep the "machines reshaping perception" thesis literal.

+  SanctSound clips: `files/SanctSound_*.mp4` at `https://sanctsound.ioos.us/files/` (extract audio).
+- **music layer** — separate composed music track per altitude, deferred (cosmos slot reserved).

+# Altitude Clip-Pair Morph + Lock Implementation Plan
+
+> **For agentic workers:** REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: Use superpowers:subagent-driven-development (recommended) or superpowers:executing-plans to implement this plan task-by-task. Steps use checkbox (`- [ ]`) syntax for tracking.
+
+**Goal:** When the viewer changes altitude, choose the destination clip *first*, play the morph footage that goes from the currently-shown clip to that chosen clip, then lock the clip in place so it never changes again until the altitude changes.
+
+**Architecture:** Today the ring carries **5** per-edge morphs (each `scale_a → scale_b`, primary→primary), the server picks a random pool member only for the *landed* scale, and `advance()` plays the edge morph (which ends on the scale's *primary*) then does a *second*, jarring `fadeThroughBlack` swap to the randomly-chosen member. We replace the per-edge model with a **per-clip-pair** model: every pair of clips in adjacent altitudes gets its own morph, in both directions (**154** clips total). The server picks the destination member(s) *before* selecting the morph, threads the currently-shown clip in as the source, and chains morphs through each crossed altitude on a multi-detent jump. The renderer plays those exact morphs and locks on the final clip — no secondary swap, no re-roll while parked.
+
+**Tech Stack:** Python 3.13 / FastAPI (`simulator/app.py`), pure ring logic (`player/ring.py`), pure manifest/schema (`simulator/clips.py`), media baking via ffmpeg `xfade=zoomin` (`simulator/build_pool_manifest.py`), vanilla JS renderer (`simulator/static/app.js`), pytest, and a new Playwright E2E tier.
+
+## Global Constraints
+
+- **Morph file naming:** `transitions/<src_clip_id>__<dst_clip_id>.mp4` (double-underscore separator — clip ids themselves use single `_`, e.g. `cosmos_miri`). The zoom-out companion is `<src>__<dst>.rev.mp4` and represents the **reverse** direction (`dst → src`).
+- **Direction convention:** a morph is *baked* descending (higher altitude → lower altitude = zoom IN). The `.rev.mp4` companion is the ascending (zoom OUT) playback. The manifest lists **both** directions as explicit, separately-keyed entries so the renderer needs no reverse logic at play time.
+- **Ring order (descending, wraps):** `["cosmos", "orbit", "coast", "reef", "abyss"]`; `abyss → cosmos` is the wrap edge.
+- **Pool sizes (current):** cosmos 5, orbit 3, coast 4, reef 5, abyss 3 → **77** adjacent ordered-pair morphs descending + **77** reverse = **154** total transition clips.
+- **Lock invariant:** the displayed base clip changes **only** inside `advance()` (a deliberate altitude change) and the one initial `landScale()`. Nothing else may reload base media. The Dev-Mode re-roll button stays as an explicit dev affordance.
+- **Randomness stays injected:** `player/ring.py` is a pure module; the impure `random.random()` draw happens once at the API boundary (`simulator/app.py`). Pure functions take injected `float` picks in `[0,1)`.
+- **Back-compat:** a manifest with no `pool` (pool of one) and the synthesized single-clip fallback ring must still work. A pool-of-one scale needs no morphs to itself.
+
+---
+
+### Task 1: Manifest emits clip-pair transition entries
+
+Re-key the manifest builder from 5 per-edge entries to 154 per-clip-pair entries (both directions), each carrying `from`/`to` clip ids. Pure dict assembly — no ffmpeg.
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `simulator/build_pool_manifest.py:374-379` (`build_manifest()` transitions block)
+- Test: `tests/test_pipeline_manifest.py`
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- Consumes: module constants `RING_ORDER: list[str]`, `POOLS: dict[str, list[str]]`.
+- Produces: each transition dict shaped `{"from": <src_id>, "to": <dst_id>, "file": "transitions/<src>__<dst>.mp4", "model": "placeholder-zoom"}`. Forward entries are descending (`H→L`, `transitions/H__L.mp4`); reverse entries are ascending (`L→H`, `transitions/H__L.rev.mp4`).
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Write the failing test**
+
+```python
+# tests/test_pipeline_manifest.py  (add)
+def test_transitions_are_per_clip_pair_both_directions():
+    import simulator.build_pool_manifest as b
+    m = b.build_manifest()
+    trans = m["ring"]["transitions"]
+    order = b.RING_ORDER
+    n = len(order)
+    # Every adjacent (higher H, lower L) edge, every member pair, BOTH directions.
+    expected = set()
+    for i in range(n):
+        H, L = order[i], order[(i + 1) % n]
+        for h in b.POOLS[H]:
+            for l in b.POOLS[L]:
+                expected.add((h, l, f"transitions/{h}__{l}.mp4"))        # zoom in
+                expected.add((l, h, f"transitions/{h}__{l}.rev.mp4"))    # zoom out
+    got = {(t["from"], t["to"], t["file"]) for t in trans}
+    assert got == expected
+    assert len(trans) == len(expected) == 154
+    assert all(t["model"] == "placeholder-zoom" for t in trans)
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Run test to verify it fails**
+
+Run: `pytest tests/test_pipeline_manifest.py::test_transitions_are_per_clip_pair_both_directions -v`
+Expected: FAIL — current builder emits 5 `scale-scale` entries with no `from`/`to`.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Implement the per-clip-pair transitions block**
+
+```python
+# simulator/build_pool_manifest.py  — replace the transitions loop in build_manifest()
+    transitions = []
+    n = len(RING_ORDER)
+    for i in range(n):
+        H, L = RING_ORDER[i], RING_ORDER[(i + 1) % n]   # H higher altitude, L lower
+        for h in POOLS[H]:
+            for l in POOLS[L]:
+                fwd = f"transitions/{h}__{l}.mp4"        # zoom IN (descend H->L)
+                transitions.append({"from": h, "to": l, "file": fwd,

+    return {"clips": clips, "ring": {"scales": scales, "transitions": transitions}}
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Run test to verify it passes**
+
+Run: `pytest tests/test_pipeline_manifest.py::test_transitions_are_per_clip_pair_both_directions -v`

+Generalize the ffmpeg morph recipe from scale-primary→scale-primary to any member→member, and have `generate_media()` bake every adjacent member pair forward + reverse. Tested with a stubbed ffmpeg runner so the test is fast and deterministic (the real bake runs as a media step at execution time).
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `simulator/build_pool_manifest.py:391-431` (`_make_transition`, `generate_media`)
+- Test: `tests/test_pipeline_manifest.py`

+- Consumes: `RING_ORDER`, `POOLS`, `MEDIA` (Path), member base footage at `MEDIA/<clip_id>/base.mp4`.
+- Produces: `_make_transition(ff, src_clip, dst_clip) -> Path` writing `transitions/<src>__<dst>.mp4` from the two members' `base.mp4`; `_make_reverse(ff, forward)` unchanged (writes `.rev.mp4`). `generate_media()` loops every adjacent ordered member pair.

+### Task 4: Resolve chained member→member morphs (pick before transition)
+
+Add a pure function that, given a structural `RingMove`, the currently-shown clip, and one injected pick per step, walks the steps — choosing a destination member for each crossed altitude and resolving the morph from the *previous* clip to it — and reports the final locked clip. This is the heart of "choose the clip first, then play the matching morph," chained through each altitude.

+  - `resolve_move(ring: ScaleRing, move: RingMove, from_clip_id: str, picks: tuple[float, ...]) -> ResolvedMove` — `len(picks)` must equal `len(move.steps)`; each `picks[k]` chooses the member of the scale that step `k` lands on. `from_clip` of step 0 is `from_clip_id`; each subsequent step's `from_clip` is the prior step's `to_clip`. `target_clip_id` is the last step's `to_clip` (or `from_clip_id` for an empty move).

+```
+
+---
+
+### Task 7: Renderer plays the chosen morph and locks the clip (no secondary swap)
+
+Rewire the frontend: send the currently-shown clip, play each resolved morph straight (the manifest already encodes direction, so drop the `reversed`/`reverseFile` logic), land + lock on `target_clip_id` with a plain (re)load, and **delete the secondary `fadeThroughBlack` swap**. Build a `(from,to)→file` lookup from the ring and preload only the morphs reachable from the current locked clip, refreshed on each landing (154 clips is too many to preload eagerly).
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `simulator/static/app.js` — `advance` (620-652), `playTransition` (568-595), `onload`/ring load (33-57), `preloadOrder`/`preloadList`/`reverseFile` (104-131, 566), remove `fadeThroughBlack` (600-618) call.
+- Verified by: Task 8 (E2E) + manual run.
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- Consumes the Task 6 response: `move.steps[k] = {from_clip, to_clip, file, to_index, blended}`, `move.target_clip_id`.
+- New module state: `morphByPair = {}` — `"from→to"` → file string, built from `ring.transitions`.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Build the morph lookup when the ring loads**
+
+```javascript
+// simulator/static/app.js — in loadRing(), after `ring = ...` is set:
+  morphByPair = {};
+  if (ring && ring.transitions)
+    for (const t of ring.transitions) morphByPair[`${t.from}→${t.to}`] = t.file;
+```
+
+Add `let morphByPair = {};` near the other module state (around line 38). The synthesized single-clip fallback ring has no transitions → empty lookup → advance is a no-op (pool of one), which is correct.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Simplify `playTransition` (no reverse logic)**
+
+```javascript
+// simulator/static/app.js — replace playTransition
+function playTransition(file, blended) {
+  // Play one resolved morph start-to-finish with alteration layers hidden. The
+  // manifest already encodes direction (forward zoom-in vs `.rev` zoom-out), so
+  // the file is played as-is. A fast-spin step runs at FAST_BLEND_RATE. If no
+  // morph exists for the pair (file null), resolve immediately (plain cut).
+  return new Promise((resolve) => {
+    if (!file) return resolve();
+    overlay.style.opacity = "0"; affectLayer.style.opacity = "0"; tint.style.opacity = "0";
+    vid.style.filter = "none"; vid.loop = false; vid.style.opacity = "1";
+    vid.src = mediaUrl(file);
+    vid.playbackRate = blended ? FAST_BLEND_RATE : 1;
+    let done = false;
+    const finish = () => {
+      if (done) return; done = true;
+      vid.removeEventListener("ended", finish); vid.playbackRate = 1; resolve();
+    };
+    vid.addEventListener("ended", finish);
+    vid.play().catch(finish);
+    setTimeout(finish, blended ? 3000 : 6000);
+  });
+}
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Rewrite `advance` — pick first (via server), play morphs, lock, no swap**
+
+```javascript
+// simulator/static/app.js — replace advance
+async function advance(delta) {
+  if (busy || !ring || ring.scales.length < 2) return;
+  busy = true;
+  try {
+    const resp = await fetch("/api/ring/advance", {
+      method: "POST", headers: { "content-type": "application/json" },
+      body: JSON.stringify({ from_index: ringIndex, delta, from_clip_id: activeClipId }),
+    });
+    if (!resp.ok) return;
+    const move = await resp.json();
+    for (const step of move.steps) {
+      await playTransition(step.file, step.blended);
+    }
+    ringIndex = move.to_index;
+    activeClipId = move.target_clip_id;   // the locked clip — the morph ended on it
+    currentClipId = null;                 // force ensureClipMedia to (re)load + loop it
+    renderScaleReadout();
+  } finally {
+    busy = false;
+    update();                 // ensureClipMedia loads the locked clip; nothing re-rolls
+    applyAudio();
+    refreshReachablePreload();
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Then **delete** `fadeThroughBlack` (now unused) and `reverseFile` (the `.rev` companion is an explicit manifest entry, no longer derived). Grep to confirm no other callers before deleting.
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Preload only the reachable morphs, refreshed per landing**
+
+```javascript
+// simulator/static/app.js — replace the eager transition preload in preloadOrder()/preloadList()
+// Reachable morphs from the CURRENT locked clip: to/from every member of the
+// neighboring altitudes (the only clips one detent can reach). 154 total is too
+// many to preload up front; we focus on what the next move can need.
+function reachableMorphFiles() {
+  const files = new Set();
+  if (!ring || ring.scales.length < 2 || !activeClipId) return files;
+  const n = ring.scales.length;
+  for (const sign of [1, -1]) {
+    const nb = ring.scales[((ringIndex + sign) % n + n) % n];
+    const members = (nb.pool || [{ clip_id: nb.clip_id }]).map((m) => m.clip_id);
+    for (const m of members) {
+      const a = morphByPair[`${activeClipId}→${m}`];
+      const b = morphByPair[`${m}→${activeClipId}`];
+      if (a) files.add(a);
+      if (b) files.add(b);
+    }
+  }
+  return files;
+}
+function refreshReachablePreload() {
+  // Kick a background cache fill of the reachable morphs (bounded concurrency,
+  // same cacheClip helper used for bases). Idempotent — cached files are skipped.
+  for (const f of reachableMorphFiles()) cacheClip(f);
+}
+```
+
+In `preloadOrder()` replace the `if (ring.transitions) for (const t ...) { add(t.file); add(reverseFile(t.file)); }` block with `for (const f of reachableMorphFiles()) add(f);`. Keep base-clip preloading (current + neighbor pools) as-is. (`cacheClip` = factor out the per-file fetch→blob step already inside the preload loop so `refreshReachablePreload` can reuse it.)
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Manual smoke + commit**
+
+Run: `cd simulator && python -m uvicorn app:app --port 8011` then open `http://localhost:8011/`, turn the Altitude dial one detent each way and several detents; confirm: a zoom morph plays, it lands on a clip, and that clip **does not change** while parked (watch the Dev-Mode clip readout). No black-flash second swap.
+
+```bash
+git add simulator/static/app.js
+git commit -m "feat(sim): play chosen morph then lock clip per altitude; drop secondary swap"
+```
+

+
+### Task 8: Playwright E2E — lock + matching morph (new tier)
+
+Stand up a minimal Playwright tier (none exists) and add one spec that proves the two behaviors the operator asked for: after zooming, the displayed clip is stable (locked) until the next altitude change, and the morph that plays matches `from→to`. §9 requires an E2E browser tier for this UI change.
+
+**Files:**
+- Create: `simulator/e2e/package.json`, `simulator/e2e/playwright.config.ts`, `simulator/e2e/tests/altitude-lock.spec.ts`
+- Create: `simulator/e2e/README.md` (how to run; how it boots uvicorn)
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- The spec drives the real app (uvicorn on a fixed port via Playwright `webServer`), reads the Dev-Mode clip readout (enable Dev Mode via localStorage before load), and intercepts `/media/transitions/*` requests to assert the morph file played.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Scaffold the tier (failing because no test yet)**
+
+```jsonc
+// simulator/e2e/package.json
+{ "name": "hef-e2e", "private": true,
+  "scripts": { "test": "playwright test" },
+  "devDependencies": { "@playwright/test": "^1.45.0" } }

+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Write the spec**
+
+```ts

+- [ ] **Step 3: Install + run**
+
+Run: `cd simulator/e2e && npm install && npx playwright install chromium && npm test`

+### Task 9: Regenerate sample media + manifest, full suite green
+
+Bake the 154 morphs into `simulator/sample_media`, rebuild the manifest, and run the entire pytest suite + the E2E spec so the shipped sample media matches the new schema.
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify (generated): `simulator/sample_media/manifest.json`, `simulator/sample_media/transitions/*.mp4`
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Rebuild media + manifest**
+
+Run: `cd simulator && python build_pool_manifest.py --media` (or the script's generate+manifest entrypoint — confirm its CLI flags) to bake morphs and rewrite `manifest.json`.
+Expected: `sample_media/transitions/` contains 154 files; `manifest.json` ring has 154 transition entries.

+```
+
+---
+
+## Self-Review
+
+**Spec coverage (operator directives):**
+- "Choose which clip plays in the next altitude *before* transitioning" → Task 4 (`resolve_move` picks dst then morph) + Task 6 (server draws picks before resolving).
+- "Play the appropriate morph footage" → Task 7 (renderer plays the resolved `step.file`).
+- "Morph footage for all transitions between all videos in adjacent altitudes" → Tasks 1–2 (manifest + bake 154, both directions) + Task 9 (regenerate).
+- "Video must not change after we've zoomed to a new altitude" / "lock per altitude until the altitude is changed" → Task 7 (delete secondary swap; lock `activeClipId`; reload only on altitude change) + Task 8 (E2E asserts stability while parked).
+- "Good transition for every video combination, in and out" → both directions baked (Task 1/2), reverse via explicit `.rev` entries (Task 3/4), E2E covers in + out (extend Task 8 spec with a zoom-out case if desired).
+- Multi-altitude jump chains through each altitude → Task 4 (`resolve_move` threads src→dst per step) + Task 5 (fast spin plays the chain quickly).
+
+**Placeholder scan:** No TBD/TODO/"handle edge cases" — every code step shows real code; tests show real assertions.
+
+**Type consistency:** `Transition(from_clip, to_clip, file, model)` (T3) used by `morph_for` (T3), `load_ring` (T3), `resolve_move` (T4), `resolved_move_to_dict` (T6). `MorphStep`/`ResolvedMove` fields (T4) match the serializer (T6) and the renderer's `step.{from_clip,to_clip,file,to_index,blended}` + `move.target_clip_id` (T7). `morphByPair` key `"from→to"` consistent in build (T7 S1) and lookup (T7 S4).
+
+**Open items (resolved at the review gate + during execution):**
+1. **Storage/repo weight:** Corrected during execution — `sample_media` was entirely
+   gitignored (regenerated from the builder), NOT already committed as the plan first
+   assumed. Operator decision: the media that has **graduated** into the actual
+   experience (curated clip bases, per-scale audio, the 154 morphs — ~526 MB) is now
+   committed via **git-LFS**, pointing at the self-hosted Gitea LFS store
+   (`git.benstull.org`). Stale/unused media (parked `right_variants`, ~1.6 GB) stays
+   gitignored (not deleted from disk — that's a separate explicit cleanup).
+2. **`build_pool_manifest.py` CLI:** ✅ `python simulator/build_pool_manifest.py --media`
+   rebuilds the manifest + bakes all morphs (confirmed at execution).
+3. **Zoom-out E2E:** ✅ Task 8 covers zoom-in + lock **and** zoom-out (`.rev` morph) + lock.
+   Note: one wheel notch = 60 deltaY = one detent (`Math.trunc(deltaY/60)`).

+# Scrub-driven Altitude Transitions Implementation Plan
+
+> **For agentic workers:** REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: Use superpowers:subagent-driven-development (recommended) or superpowers:executing-plans to implement this plan task-by-task. Steps use checkbox (`- [ ]`) syntax for tracking.
+
+**Goal:** Make the Altitude knob position *continuously* drive the scale transition — dragging the dial scrubs the morph video's `currentTime` and crossfades the two adjacent scale soundtracks by knob angle, holding wherever the knob stops, fully reversible.
+
+**Architecture:** Introduce a continuous float **position** `pos` (integers = altitudes/detents, fractions = mid-morph blend). A small pure module (`scrub.js`) owns the math (position→segment, frac→currentTime, audio gains, integer-crossing detection); `app.js` becomes the DOM/event glue that drives `pos` from the dial, seeks the morph `<video>`, crossfades two `<audio>` elements, and commits/locks/re-rolls on integer crossings. Phase 1 builds the interaction against the *current* (sparse-GOP) morphs to validate feel; Phase 2 re-bakes all 154 morphs all-intra for smooth seeking.
+
+**Tech Stack:** Vanilla JS (no framework, plain `<script>`), Node built-in `node --test` for pure-logic unit tests, Playwright for E2E, Python + ffmpeg/x264 for the morph re-bake (`simulator/build_pool_manifest.py`), git-LFS for media.
+
+## Global Constraints
+
+- **Spec contract:** `docs/superpowers/specs/2026-06-27-scrub-driven-altitude-transitions-design.md` — implement its locked decisions verbatim.
+- **In-between state:** hold the blend wherever the knob stops — **no auto-complete** (continuous-encoder model).
+- **Turn-back:** scrubs the **same** segment morph in reverse; landing back on the start integer re-locks **exactly** the clip you left (fully reversible).
+- **Destination randomness:** the destination altitude's clip is a random pick from its pool, **fixed for a single continuous gesture**, **re-rolled on each fresh approach** (each fresh entry into a segment from an integer).
+- **Scroll wheel:** auto-scrub one altitude over ~0.6 s, then lock. **Tap a dial label:** auto-scrub to that altitude the shortest way around.
+- **Lock-per-altitude** still holds: a resting altitude's clip stays locked until you commit into a different one.
+- **Canonical segment file (locked interpretation):** for the segment between altitude indices `lo` and `lo+1`, always use the **descend/forward** morph `morphByPair["<clip@lo>→<clip@lo+1>"]`, with `currentTime = frac × duration`. Reverse travel seeks the **same** file backward. `.rev` files are not used by the scrub interaction (they remain baked for back-compat).
+- **Git transport:** SSH only (`ssh://git@git.benstull.org/...`). No inline trailing comments on shell/CLI command lines.
+- **Pipeline:** ship via §9 — localhost + E2E green → PPE + E2E green → prod (prod human-gated). Every UI change carries its E2E browser tests as first-class tasks.
+
+---
+
+## File Structure
+
+- **Create** `simulator/static/scrub.js` — pure scrub math, UMD (browser global `HEFScrub` + CommonJS `module.exports`). No DOM.
+- **Create** `simulator/unit/scrub.test.js` — `node --test` unit suite for `scrub.js`.
+- **Create** `simulator/unit/README.md` — one-liner on running the unit suite.
+- **Modify** `simulator/static/index.html` — load `scrub.js` before `app.js`; add a second `<audio id="aud-b" loop preload="auto">`.
+- **Modify** `simulator/static/app.js` — replace the discrete drag/wheel/tap `advance()` flow with the scrub engine (`setPos`, `rebuildSegment`, `commitCrossings`, auto-scrub animator); two-element audio crossfade; client-side clip pick from `scale.pool`.
+- **Modify** `simulator/e2e/tests/altitude-lock.spec.ts` (or add `scrub.spec.ts`) — assert `currentTime` + the two audio gains track the dial angle and reverse on turn-back; full turn commits+locks; wheel auto-scrubs one altitude and locks.
+- **Modify** `simulator/build_pool_manifest.py` — `_make_transition` / `_make_reverse` emit **all-intra** H.264 (`-g 1 -keyint_min 1 -sc_threshold 0`) for seekable frames.
+- **Modify** `tests/test_build_pool_manifest.py` — assert the ffmpeg arg list carries the all-intra flags.

+
+**Files:**

+- Create: `simulator/unit/scrub.test.js`
+- Create: `simulator/unit/README.md`
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- Produces (all pure, no DOM), exported on `HEFScrub` and `module.exports`:
+  - `clamp01(x: number): number`
+  - `wrapIndex(i: number, n: number): number` — `((i % n) + n) % n`
+  - `segmentOf(pos: number): { lo: number, frac: number }` — `lo = floor(pos)`, `frac = pos - lo`
+  - `accumToPos(restPos: number, accumDeg: number, stepDeg: number): number` — `restPos + accumDeg/stepDeg`
+  - `fracToTime(frac: number, duration: number): number` — `clamp01(frac) * (duration || 0)`
+  - `crossfadeGains(frac: number): { from: number, to: number }` — `{ from: 1-clamp01(frac), to: clamp01(frac) }`
+  - `integerCrossings(prevPos: number, pos: number): Array<{ index: number, dir: number }>` — integers strictly crossed going `prevPos → pos`, in travel order, `dir` = `+1` descending (pos increasing) / `-1` ascending. Landing exactly on an integer counts as crossing it.

+### Task 2: Two-element audio crossfade
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `simulator/static/index.html` (add `<audio id="aud-b">`; load `scrub.js`)
+- Modify: `simulator/static/app.js` (audio layer ~lines 950–1045)
+- Test: `simulator/unit/scrub.test.js` (gains already covered in Task 1 — no new pure logic)
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- Consumes: `HEFScrub.crossfadeGains`, `soundtrackUrl()`-style per-scale URL resolution.
+- Produces:
+  - `scaleAudioUrl(index: number): string|null` — the soundtrack URL for ring scale `index` (wrapped), using the ring `audio` field then `SCALE_AUDIO_FALLBACK`.
+  - `blendAudio(loIndex: number, frac: number): void` — element A plays scale `loIndex`, element B plays scale `loIndex+1` (wrapped), gains `crossfadeGains(frac)`; loads each element's src on first use per gesture. No-op when Audio toggle is off.
+  - `restAudio(index: number): void` — settle to a single scale at rest (full gain on the element holding `index`, fade the other to 0). Replaces the tail of `applyAudio()` for the at-rest case.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Add the second audio element + scrub.js script tag**
+
+In `simulator/static/index.html`, beside the existing `<audio id="aud" loop preload="auto"></audio>` (line ~21), add:
+
+```html
+        <audio id="aud" loop preload="auto"></audio>
+        <audio id="aud-b" loop preload="auto"></audio>
+```
+
+And load the pure module before `app.js` (line ~112):
+
+```html
+  <script src="/scrub.js"></script>
+  <script src="/app.js"></script>
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Write the failing E2E expectation (gains exist on two elements)**
+
+Add to `simulator/e2e/tests/altitude-lock.spec.ts` a focused check (full assertions land in Task 5; this verifies the element + hook exist):
+
+```ts
+test("two audio elements exist for crossfade", async ({ page }) => {
+  await boot(page);
+  const n = await page.evaluate(() => document.querySelectorAll("audio#aud, audio#aud-b").length);
+  expect(n).toBe(2);
+});
+```
+
+Run: `cd simulator/e2e && npx playwright test -g "two audio elements"`
+Expected: FAIL until the markup change is loaded (and PASS once the running server serves the new `index.html`).
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Implement the crossfade audio layer in `app.js`**
+
+Replace the single-element logic around `playUrl`/`applyAudio` (app.js ~1019–1045). Keep `aud` as element A and add `audB` as element B; generalize URL resolution by index:
+
+```js
+const aud = $("aud");
+const audB = $("aud-b");
+let audLastErr = "";
+
+// Soundtrack URL for ring scale `index` (wrapped), ring `audio` field then fallback.
+function scaleAudioUrl(index) {
+  if (!ring || !ring.scales.length) return null;
+  const s = ring.scales[HEFScrub.wrapIndex(index, ring.scales.length)];
+  const a = s.audio || SCALE_AUDIO_FALLBACK[s.id];
+  return a ? "/media/audio/" + a : null;
+}
+
+// Start (once) and set the volume of one element to a given url. Safari needs the
+// first play() inside a user gesture; later programmatic plays reuse the element.
+function ensurePlaying(el, url, vol) {
+  if (!url) { el.volume = 0; if (!el.paused) el.pause(); return; }
+  if (el.dataset.url !== url) {
+    el.dataset.url = url;
+    el.src = mediaUrl(url);
+  }
+  if (el.paused) {
+    const pr = el.play();
+    if (pr) pr.then(() => { audLastErr = ""; updateAudioStatus(); })
+            .catch((e) => { audLastErr = "play BLOCKED: " + ((e && e.name) || e); updateAudioStatus(); });
+  }
+  el.volume = HEFScrub.clamp01(vol);
+}
+
+// Mid-segment: A = scale `loIndex`, B = scale loIndex+1, gains by frac.
+function blendAudio(loIndex, frac) {
+  if (!$("audio").checked) return;
+  const g = HEFScrub.crossfadeGains(frac);
+  ensurePlaying(aud, scaleAudioUrl(loIndex), g.from);
+  ensurePlaying(audB, scaleAudioUrl(loIndex + 1), g.to);
+  updateAudioStatus();
+}
+
+// At rest on a single altitude: the element already holding it stays at full gain,
+// the other fades to 0. Picks whichever element currently carries `index`'s url.
+function restAudio(index) {
+  if (!$("audio").checked) { fadeVolume(aud, 0, FADE_MS, () => aud.pause()); fadeVolume(audB, 0, FADE_MS, () => audB.pause()); return; }
+  const url = scaleAudioUrl(index);
+  const onB = audB.dataset.url === url && url;
+  const active = onB ? audB : aud;
+  const idle = onB ? aud : audB;
+  ensurePlaying(active, url, 1);
+  fadeVolume(idle, 0, FADE_MS);
+}
+```
+
+Then make the Audio toggle and altitude-rest paths call `restAudio(ringIndex)` instead of the old `applyAudio()` swap. Keep `applyAudio()` as a thin shim that calls `restAudio(ringIndex)` so existing call sites (e.g. the toggle handler at ~1073, `update()`) keep working:
+
+```js
+function applyAudio() { restAudio(ringIndex); }
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Run unit suite + the focused E2E**
+
+Run: `node --test simulator/unit/scrub.test.js`
+Expected: PASS.
+Run: `cd simulator/e2e && npx playwright test -g "two audio elements"` (with the dev server running)
+Expected: PASS.

+### Task 3: Scrub engine — drag drives `pos`, seeks the morph, commits/locks/re-rolls
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `simulator/static/app.js` (`onDialDown/Move/Up` ~766–795; `advance` ~640–679; `playTransition` ~595–636; needle/render ~739–751)
+- Test: `simulator/unit/scrub.test.js` (pure parts covered; engine glue is DOM, covered by E2E in Task 5)
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- Consumes: `HEFScrub.*`, `morphByPair`, `scale.pool` (client ring), `mediaUrl`, `setNeedle`, `dialStep`, `ensureClipMedia`/`update` (base-clip loop), `blendAudio`/`restAudio`.
+- Produces:
+  - `pos` (module-level float; rest value = `ringIndex`).
+  - `pickPoolClip(index: number): string` — random `clip_id` from ring scale `index`'s pool (wrapped).
+  - `rebuildSegment(lo: number, enteredFrom: number): void` — sets `activeSeg = { lo, clipLo, clipHi, file }`; the side equal to the just-rested altitude takes `activeClipId`, the other is a fresh `pickPoolClip` (re-roll); `file = morphByPair["<clipLo>→<clipHi>"]` (descend canonical).
+  - `setPos(next: number, opts?: { commit?: boolean }): void` — clamps thrash via one seek per rAF; seeks `vid.currentTime = fracToTime(frac, dur)`; `setNeedle(next * dialStep())`; `blendAudio(lo, frac)`; processes `integerCrossings(pos, next)` to commit/lock/re-roll; updates `pos`.
+  - `commitTo(index: number): void` — `ringIndex = wrapIndex(index,n)`, `activeClipId = clip at that index for the active segment`, settle base loop + `restAudio` when frac becomes 0.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Write the failing E2E (drag partway tracks currentTime + gains)**
+
+Add to the E2E spec (full version in Task 5; this drives the engine):
+
+```ts
+test("dragging the dial scrubs morph currentTime and audio gains", async ({ page }) => {
+  await boot(page);
+  // Drag the dial ~40% of one detent (clockwise = descend).
+  const box = await page.locator("#dial").boundingBox();

+  await page.mouse.move(cx, cy - 30);
+  await page.mouse.down();
+  await page.mouse.move(cx + 18, cy - 24, { steps: 8 });   // partial turn

+  }));
+  expect(state.t).toBeGreaterThan(0);          // morph scrubbed off frame 0

+
+Run: `cd simulator/e2e && npx playwright test -g "scrubs morph currentTime"`
+Expected: FAIL (engine not built yet).
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Implement the scrub engine in `app.js`**
+
+Add the position state + segment + setPos near the dial logic, and rewrite `onDialMove`/`onDialUp` to drive it live:
+
+```js
+let pos = 0;                 // continuous knob position; rest value == ringIndex
+let activeSeg = null;        // { lo, clipLo, clipHi, file }
+let seekPending = false;     // throttle: one currentTime seek per rAF
+
+function pickPoolClip(index) {
+  const n = ring.scales.length;
+  const s = ring.scales[HEFScrub.wrapIndex(index, n)];
+  const pool = (s.pool && s.pool.length) ? s.pool : [{ clip_id: s.clip_id }];
+  return pool[Math.floor(Math.random() * pool.length)].clip_id;
+}
+
+// Build (or re-roll) the segment [lo, lo+1]. The side equal to the rested altitude
+// keeps the locked clip; the other end is a fresh random pick (re-roll).
+function rebuildSegment(lo, enteredFrom) {

+
+function setPos(next) {

+
+Rewrite the drag handlers to drive `pos` live (replacing the no-live-follow `onDialMove` and the commit-on-release `onDialUp`):
+
+```js
+function onDialDown(e) {
+  if (!ring || ring.scales.length < 2) return;

+  setPos(HEFScrub.accumToPos(dialDrag.restPos, dialDrag.accum, dialStep()));   // LIVE scrub
+}
+function onDialUp(e) {

+  }
+  // No auto-complete: hold wherever the knob stopped (continuous-encoder model).
+}
+```
+
+Keep `renderDial()` reading `pos` for the needle when mid-segment, else `ringIndex`. Retire `advance()`'s body (or leave it unused) — wheel/tap use the auto-scrub in Task 4.

+Run (tests): `cd simulator/e2e && npx playwright test`
+Expected: all PASS.
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Eyeball the feel**
+
+Confirm by hand: slow drag eases the morph slowly; fast drag races it; stopping mid-drag holds a blended frame with mixed audio; turning back reverses; the wheel auto-scrubs one altitude and locks; a label tap travels the shortest way.

+- Test: `tests/test_build_pool_manifest.py`
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- Produces: every baked morph encoded all-intra (each frame a keyframe) so arbitrary-frame seeking is smooth.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Write the failing arg-builder test**
+
+`_make_transition`/`_make_reverse` currently call `subprocess.run` directly, so factor the ffmpeg command into a pure builder to test it. Add to `simulator/build_pool_manifest.py`:
+
+```python
+ALL_INTRA = ["-c:v", "libx264", "-g", "1", "-keyint_min", "1", "-sc_threshold", "0", "-pix_fmt", "yuv420p"]
+```
+
+Add a pure helper and a test. In `tests/test_build_pool_manifest.py`:
+
+```python
+from simulator import build_pool_manifest as B
+
+def test_transition_cmd_is_all_intra():
+    cmd = B.transition_cmd("ffmpeg", "/a/base.mp4", "/b/base.mp4", "/out/x__y.mp4")

+    assert "reverse" in " ".join(cmd)
+```
+
+Run: `python -m pytest tests/test_build_pool_manifest.py -q`
+Expected: FAIL — `transition_cmd`/`reverse_cmd` not defined.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Extract `transition_cmd`/`reverse_cmd` and apply all-intra flags**
+
+```python
+def transition_cmd(ff, a, b, out):
+    norm = "trim=0:3,setpts=PTS-STARTPTS,scale=1280:720,fps=25,setsar=1,format=yuv420p"

+def reverse_cmd(ff, forward, out):
+    return [ff, "-y", "-i", str(forward), "-vf", "reverse", "-an", *ALL_INTRA, str(out)]

+
+Then make `_make_transition`/`_make_reverse` call these builders inside `subprocess.run(..., check=True, capture_output=True)`.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Run the arg-builder test**
+
+Run: `python -m pytest tests/test_build_pool_manifest.py -q`
+Expected: PASS.
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Regenerate the morph media**
+
+Run: `python simulator/build_pool_manifest.py` (or its documented `generate_media` entrypoint) to re-bake all 154 morphs all-intra. Confirm files regrew (sparse → dense keyframes; expect ~0.5–0.9 GB total, each clip well under the 25 MB LFS/proxy ceiling noted in memory).
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Commit the re-baked media via git-LFS**
+
+```bash
+git add simulator/sample_media/transitions
+git commit -m "feat(pipeline): re-bake 154 morphs all-intra for smooth scrub seeking (LFS)"
+```
+
+Confirm they are LFS pointers: `git lfs ls-files | head`.
+
+---
+
+### Task 8: Phase-2 verification — smooth scrub on dense keyframes
+
+**Files:** none (verification task).
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Re-run the unit + E2E suites against re-baked media**
+
+Run: `node --test simulator/unit/` → PASS.
+Run (server up): `cd simulator/e2e && npx playwright test` → PASS.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Eyeball smoothness**
+
+Confirm the scrub now seeks smoothly frame-to-frame (no stepping) on a slow drag across a full segment.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Push the branch**
+
+```bash
+git push -u origin session-0026
+```
+
+---
+
+## Ship via §9 (execution, not a code task)
+
+After Phase 1 + Phase 2 are green on localhost (unit + E2E), ship through the mandatory pipeline:
+1. **localhost + E2E green** (Tasks 6 + 8).
+2. **PPE deploy + E2E green** (flotilla; provision PPE if it doesn't exist yet). Stamp the `release/<YYYY-MM-DDTHH-MM>` tag.
+3. **prod is human-gated** — the operator promotes the validated tag; the session stops at PPE-green.
+

+
+## Self-Review
+
+**Spec coverage:**
+- Core model (continuous `pos`, frac drives currentTime + audio) → Tasks 1, 3, 2.
+- In-between hold / no auto-complete → Task 3 (`onDialUp` holds).
+- Turn-back reversible / re-lock start clip → Tasks 3, 5.
+- Destination randomness fixed-per-gesture, re-roll on fresh approach → Task 3 (`rebuildSegment`, re-roll on `activeSeg` reset at crossing).
+- Scroll wheel auto-scrub then lock; tap shortest way → Task 4.
+- Lock-per-altitude preserved → Task 3 (`commit` sets `activeClipId`; frac 0 settles base loop).
+- Audio crossfade two adjacent soundtracks by frac → Task 2.
+- All-intra re-bake (154 morphs, LFS) → Task 7.
+- Unit tests (position→segment, frac→time, commit on crossing, re-roll, reverse) → Task 1 (pure) + E2E for glue.
+- Playwright E2E (currentTime + gains track angle, reverse, full-turn commit-lock, wheel) → Task 5.
+- Phasing (interaction first, re-bake second) → Phase 1 then Phase 2.
+
+**Placeholder scan:** none — every code step carries real code and exact commands.
+
+**Type consistency:** `setPos`, `rebuildSegment`, `activeSeg {lo,clipLo,clipHi,file}`, `pickPoolClip`, `blendAudio(loIndex,frac)`, `restAudio(index)`, `scaleAudioUrl(index)`, `autoScrub(targetPos,ms)`, `HEFScrub.*` names are used consistently across Tasks 1–5. `transition_cmd`/`reverse_cmd`/`ALL_INTRA` consistent in Tasks 7.
+
+**Open interpretation (logged as deferred decision):** the canonical-segment-file choice (always the descend/forward morph, scrubbed bidirectionally; `.rev` unused by scrub) reinterprets the spec's literal `morphByPair["<from>→<to>"]` directed lookup in favor of its "scrub the same morph in reverse" + full-reversibility requirements.

+# Audio + Video — separated Visual & Audio controls — design
+
+**Status:** proposed → built (sessions 0020 build + 0021 revision)
+**Date:** 2026-06-26
+**Session:** 0020 (audio) · 0021 (live-UI revision)
+
+> **v1 build revision (session 0021, operator-driven):** the live **Audio** control
+> ships as a simple **off / soundtrack** toggle (styled like the Dev Mode switch),
+> and **Video** is the matching on/off toggle. **White-noise is deferred** with music

+> **Startup revision (session 0022):** the tap-to-start wall is **removed** — the app

+> and the experience can run smoothly), then both toggles start **off** (black +
+> silent). Autoplay is satisfied without a wall: a **single** `<audio>` element is
+> played **synchronously inside the toggle's own click** (the reliable Safari unlock),
+> replacing the A/B-crossfade-after-gesture approach that failed on real Safari. The
+> first time **Video** is turned on, **Audio** turns on with it (one flip = the full
+> experience); turning Audio on first stays audio-only. Altitude changes swap the

+**Extends / reframes:** [`2026-06-26-networked-control-surface-design.md`](./2026-06-26-networked-control-surface-design.md)
+§3 (control inventory) and §5 (server contract) — its bundled **Content** selector
+is split into two orthogonal controls. Everything else in that spec (server-of-truth
+ SSE, the two pages, the Arduino seam, transition lifecycle) stands unchanged.
+**Asset record:** [`docs/audio-candidate-pool.md`](../../audio-candidate-pool.md).
+
+---
+
+## 1. Goal
+
+Give the experience **sound**, and make audio and video **independently
+controllable**. Today the control surface bundles audio+video into a single 7-way
+**Content** selector (*video / audio+video / music+video / off / white noise /
+music / audio track*). That bundle is both awkward to operate and **incomplete** —
+it has no "white noise **with** video," for instance.
+
+Replace it with **two orthogonal dials** — **Visual** and **Audio** — so every
+combination is reachable, including the ones the bundle omitted. Operator framing
+(2026-06-26): *"separate these dials… it's ok to let people have e.g. white noise
+with video."*
+
+## 2. Core idea: orthogonalize Content into Visual × Audio
+
+```
+        BEFORE (bundled)                      AFTER (orthogonal)
+  Content: 7-way selector            Visual: on / off
+   video                             Audio:  off / soundtrack / white noise
+   audio+video                                        (· music — deferred)
+   music+video              ──▶      ───────────────────────────────────────
+   off                               Any Visual × Any Audio is now reachable:
+   white noise                         video + soundtrack   (was "audio+video")
+   music                               video + white noise  (NEW — was missing)
+   audio track                         black + white noise  (was "white noise")
+                                       black + soundtrack   (was "audio track")
+```
+
+The 7 bundled modes were really points in a **2 × N grid** (visual on/off ×
+audio source). Making the grid explicit removes the awkwardness and fills the gap.
+The **Altitude** dial is unchanged and remains the single scale selector.
+
+## 3. The controls (reframes control-surface §3)
+
+| Control | Positions (v1) | Drives | Class (§4 of control-surface spec) |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| **Altitude** | endless dial, cosmos→abyss (wraps) | the visual **scale** **and**, when Audio=soundtrack, the matching ambience | transitional |
+| **Visual** | on / off | video shown vs. black | transitional (video fade) |
+| **Audio** | off / soundtrack / white noise (· *music* deferred) | the audio **source** | live + short crossfade (§7) |
+| **Left** / **Right** / **Mood** | unchanged | the alteration engine | live |
+
+So the panel grows from 5 controls to **6** (Content → Visual + Audio). The
+physical form (later): Visual = a toggle/2-pos switch; Audio = a small rotary
+selector (3-pos in v1, 4 with music).
+
+## 4. Audio model (the coupling decision)
+
+**Decision (operator):** the audio dial is a **source** selector; the per-altitude
+soundtrack **follows the single Altitude dial**. There is **no** separate audio
+altitude.
+
+- **`soundtrack`** → plays the ambience of the **current Altitude scale**. Turning
+  Altitude to coast shows coast video *and* plays coast waves; the soundtrack
+  **crossfades** as the altitude transition settles (mirrors the video ring
+  crossfade). One dial, two coupled outputs.
+- **`white noise`** → a single global bed, **altitude-independent**. Changing
+  Altitude does not change it. This is what makes "white noise + any video" work.
+- **`off`** → silence. Video (if Visual=on) plays mute.
+- **`music`** *(deferred)* → the composed per-altitude music layer. Reserved as a
+  future Audio position; **not in v1** (no assets yet — see
+  [`docs/audio-candidate-pool.md`](../../audio-candidate-pool.md) "two audio layers").
+
+Independence summary: **Visual ⟂ Audio** (any pairing allowed); **Audio source ⟂
+Altitude** for white noise/music, **coupled to Altitude** for soundtrack.
+
+## 5. Assets & manifest
+
+### 5.1 Per-scale soundtrack
+
+The five ambiences are sourced and reviewed (PD/CC0; record in
+[`docs/audio-candidate-pool.md`](../../audio-candidate-pool.md), local-only review
+gallery `simulator/static/review_audio.html`):
+
+| scale | soundtrack | license |
+|---|---|---|
+| cosmos | Pillars of Creation sonification | PD (NASA) |
+| orbit | station room-tone hum | CC0 |
+| coast | sea waves + terns | CC0 |
+| reef | 6-layer reef soundscape | PD (NOAA) + CC0 |
+| abyss | blue-whale moan | PD (NOAA) |
+
+The manifest's `Scale` gains an **`audio`** field (path to the scale's soundtrack),
+parallel to how clips are referenced; media stays gitignored and is served at
+`/media/audio/<scale>/<file>`. Soundtracks are a **per-scale single** (not a
+rotating pool) in v1 — one bed per altitude. (A rotating audio pool, like the clip
+pool, is a possible later extension; out of v1.)
+
+### 5.2 White noise
+
+Altitude-independent global asset. **Synthesized, not sourced** — a calm
+**pink/brown** noise (gentler than pure white) generated deterministically with
+`ffmpeg -f lavfi -i anoisesrc=color=pink` → a clean ~60 s loop. Zero licensing
+concerns. (Colloquially "white noise"; spec a calm colored noise.)
+
+### 5.3 Production pass (assets)
+
+Before ship the source clips get a light, deterministic pass (the existing
+`tools/pipeline` ffmpeg approach): **seamless loop** (crossfade the loop point),
+**normalize loudness** across the five so altitudes match, and a consistent format
+(mp3/ogg). Several are short (abyss 13 s, cosmos 30 s) and must loop cleanly. The
+6-layer reef bake is already loop-length (60 s).
+
+## 6. Server contract (reframes control-surface §5)
+
+The control-surface spec's authoritative `SessionState` + four endpoints are
+unchanged in shape; only the **controls** payload changes: `content` is replaced
+by `visual` + `audio`, and the derived `render.content` is split.
+
+### 6.1 `GET /api/state` — updated `controls` + `render`
+
+```json
+{
+  "seq": 42,
+  "controls": { "visual": "on", "audio": "soundtrack", "left": 3, "right": 1, "mood": -2 },
+  "altitude": { "index": 2, "scale": "coast", "clip_id": "coast_07" },
+  "transitions": { "altitude": "idle", "visual": "idle" },
+  "render": {
+    "plan": { },
+    "video":  { "shown": true },
+    "audio":  { "source": "soundtrack", "url": "/media/audio/coast/waves.mp3", "altitude_coupled": true }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+- `audio.url` is resolved **server-side** from `(audio source, altitude)`:
+  `soundtrack` → the current scale's `audio`; `white_noise` → the global noise
+  asset; `off` → `null`. The renderer just plays `audio.url` (or nothing).
+- `transitions` tracks `visual` instead of `content` (Audio is not transitional —
+  §7).
+
+### 6.2 `POST /api/control`
+
+```json
+{ "set": { "audio": "white_noise" } }   // audio source change
+{ "set": { "visual": "off" } }          // visual fade to black
+{ "set": {}, "altitude_delta": -1 }     // altitude tick (also re-resolves audio.url when source=soundtrack)
+```
+
+Server applies, bumps `seq`, recomputes `render.audio.url`, and broadcasts.
+Absolute `set` values keep retries idempotent (control-surface §5.6).
+
+### 6.3 SSE events
+
+- `state` — carries the new controls/render; emitted on Audio change and on any
+  live change (Audio source change rides the `state` event — §7).
+- `ring` — altitude move; now **also** carries the new `audio.url` so the renderer
+  can crossfade the soundtrack as it plays the visual transition (when
+  source=soundtrack).
+- `mode` — repurposed to the **Visual** fade (on/off). (Same renderer fade machinery
+  the bundled Content used.)
+
+## 7. Live vs. transitional classification
+
+- **Visual on/off → transitional.** It's a visible video fade (to/from black); it
+  uses the renderer's existing fade + `settled` ack, exactly as the bundled
+  Content's fade did. `transitions.visual` flips `transitioning`→`idle`.
+- **Audio source → live, with a short renderer-side crossfade.** Swapping
+  soundtrack/white-noise/off is a ~0.5–1 s **gain crossfade** between two `<audio>`
+  elements — perceptible but **non-blocking** and not a renderer animation with
+  unknown timing. So it's classified **live** (no busy spinner, no `settled` ack),
+  like Left/Right/Mood. *Flagged decision:* if the operator wants the Audio knob to
+  feel "busy" during its fade, it can be promoted to transitional later; v1 keeps it
+  live for simplicity.
+- **Altitude → transitional** (unchanged). When source=soundtrack, the renderer
+  crossfades the audio bed in step with the ring transition; the audio crossfade is
+  slaved to the visual transition and needs no separate ack.
+
+## 8. Renderer behavior (extends control-surface §6.1)
+
+The display page adds an **audio layer**:
+
+- Two `<audio>` elements (A/B) for gapless gain crossfades; a tiny crossfade helper.
+- On `state`: reconcile `audio.url` — if it changed, crossfade A↔B to the new url
+  (or fade to silence for `off`). White-noise and soundtrack are the same mechanism;
+  only the url differs.
+- On `ring` (altitude move) with source=soundtrack: start the soundtrack crossfade
+  to the event's new `audio.url` so it lands with the visual scale.
+- On `mode` (Visual): fade the **video** to/from black; audio is untouched (you can
+  hear soundtrack/white-noise over black).
+- Each soundtrack loops (the production-pass clean loop); white-noise loops.
+- Autoplay: the renderer is launched full-screen by the operator; a one-time user
+  gesture (or `--autoplay`/muted-then-unmute) satisfies browser autoplay policy.
+  *Flagged:* document the launch gesture so the projection starts audio reliably.
+
+## 9. Testing (mandatory pipeline tiers)
+
+- **Pure unit** — `render.audio.url` resolution from `(source, altitude)`:
+  soundtrack→scale asset, white_noise→global, off→null; altitude tick re-resolves
+  only when source=soundtrack; `seq` bump. No I/O.
+- **API/contract** — `POST /api/control {visual}` flips `transitions.visual`;
+  `{audio}` rides a `state` event with the new url and **no** transition flag; bad
+  enum → 422; `GET /api/state` shape.
+- **E2E (Playwright)** — renderer + `/remote`: set Audio=white_noise → assert the
+  renderer's audio element src is the noise asset; tick Altitude with
+  Audio=soundtrack → assert the soundtrack url crossfades to the new scale; set
+  Visual=off → assert the video fades and audio keeps playing. (Audio *playback*
+  asserted via element `src`/`paused`, not waveform.)
+
+## 10. Scope
+
+**In v1:**
+
+- Split **Content** → **Visual** (on/off) + **Audio** (off / soundtrack / white
+  noise) across `SessionState`, `/api/state`, `/api/control`, SSE, and both pages.
+- Per-scale `audio` in the manifest + the 5 sourced soundtracks (production-passed
+  loops); synthesized white-noise asset.
+- Server-side `audio.url` resolution; renderer audio layer with crossfades;
+  altitude-coupled soundtrack crossfade.
+
+**Explicitly NOT in v1 (deferred):**
+
+- **Music layer** (`audio=music`) — reserved dial position; no assets yet.
+- **Separate audio altitude** (hear reef while seeing coast) — rejected coupling
+  option; soundtrack follows the one Altitude dial.
+- **Rotating audio pools** per scale (one bed per altitude in v1).
+- Per-altitude white-noise variants (one global noise).
+- Physical Visual/Audio switches (Arduino) — contract only, per control-surface §7.
+
+## 11. Spec & roadmap impact
+
+- **Reframes** control-surface §3/§5: `content` → `visual` + `audio`;
+  `transitions.content` → `transitions.visual`; `render.content` → `render.video`
+  + `render.audio`. That spec is still *proposed* (unbuilt), so this is a clean
+  pre-implementation edit, not a migration. Both can be built together, or this
+  one folds into the control-surface build as its Content step.
+- The **music layer** becomes a tracked follow-on (compose + source per-altitude
+  music; flip on the reserved Audio position).
+- `ROADMAP.md` to note the audio capability at implementation time.
+
+## 12. Open questions / flagged — RESOLVED (session 0020 build)
+
+- **Audio knob feel** (§7) — **RESOLVED: live**, with a ~0.6 s renderer-side gain
+  crossfade (`XFADE_MS=600`), no `settled` ack. Promote to transitional later only
+  if the iPad makes it feel like it needs a "busy" state.
+- **White-noise color** — **RESOLVED: pink** (`anoisesrc=color=pink`), a balanced
+  calm bed. Brown is a one-parameter alternative (`color=brown`) if a deeper rumble
+  is wanted; the build is parameterized for it.
+- **Autoplay gesture** (§8) — **RESOLVED: a one-time tap-to-start overlay**
+  ("▶ tap to start sound", `#start-gesture`). The first click unlocks both `<audio>`
+  elements within the user gesture; thereafter audio follows state. This is the
+  documented launch step for the full-screen projection.

+# Networked Control Surface — design
+
+**Status:** proposed
+**Date:** 2026-06-26
+**Session:** 0019
+**Supersedes/reframes:** ROADMAP sub-project 4 (Arduino Firmware / control panel) and
+the "serial input" slice of sub-project 3 (Player Runtime).
+
+---
+
+## 1. Goal
+
+Split the existing simulator into a **renderer** (the laptop full-screen
+projection — "the experience") and a separate **controller** (a touch remote),
+talking over the local network, so the experience can be driven from a handheld
+device the way the real installation's panel drives its screen.
+
+This is **v1 hardware**, deliberately simulator-friendly:
+
+- The **laptop/computer renders** (no Raspberry Pi yet).
+- The controller is a **separate device** over **wifi** (LAN), not a USB-serial
+  link to a Pi.
+- The controller is **prototyped as a web page** (an iPad/tablet/phone twin),
+  and a **physical Arduino remote** drops in later as just another control source
+  speaking the same contract.
+
+Two goals, equally weighted (operator, session 0019): **decouple control from
+display cleanly**, *and* get the **handheld "stand back and drive it" feel**.
+
+## 2. Core idea: one server of truth, interchangeable control sources
+
+```
+┌──────────────────┐   POST /api/control      ┌─────────────────────┐
+│  CONTROL SOURCE  │ ───── (knob change) ────▶ │   FastAPI server    │
+│                  │                           │  (laptop)           │

+┌──────────────────┐   GET /api/events (SSE)   │  │ seq (version) │  │

+│ (the experience) │ ──── POST /api/render/event ────────▶│ (settled ack)
+└──────────────────┘                          recompute RenderPlan + ring move
+```
+
+- **Server** owns the single authoritative `SessionState` (current controls,
+  altitude/ring index, per-field transition state, a monotonic `seq`). Every
+  change recomputes the derived view and broadcasts it.
+- **Control source** = anything that `POST`s a control change. v1 has exactly
+  one: the iPad web remote. A future Arduino is *another instance of the same
+  role* — no new server concept.
+- **Renderer** = the laptop projection. It holds **no** input UI; it subscribes
+  to the SSE stream and renders whatever state arrives. It is today's
+  `simulator/static/index.html`, stripped of its sliders, given a `state`
+  listener plus one small upstream ack channel.
+
+The property that matters: controller and renderer are now **separate web pages
+off the same server**, decoupled exactly as a real installation's panel and
+screen are. (Chosen architecture: server-authoritative session + **Server-Sent
+Events** push. SSE fits because the directions are asymmetric — the renderer only
+*receives*, the control source only *sends* — so no bidirectional WebSocket is
+needed. Alternatives considered and rejected: renderer polling — laggy/wasteful;
+peer-to-peer WebRTC — most plumbing and it breaks the clean single-contract seam
+that makes the Arduino a drop-in.)
+
+## 3. Control surface: the six controls (the faithful twin)
+
+The iPad remote is a **faithful on-screen twin** of the intended physical panel —
+what you like on the iPad is the spec for the Arduino panel. The control
+inventory is exactly what the sim exposes today:
+
+| Control | Sim today | Physical form (later) |
+|---|---|---|
+| **Visual** | toggle (show video on/off) | 2-position switch |
+| **Audio** | on/off toggle (on = per-altitude soundtrack; ·white-noise & music deferred) | 2-position switch (rotary selector when more sources land) |
+| **Altitude** | endless circular dial — walks the 5 scales (cosmos→abyss), wraps | rotary encoder (endless, detented) |
+| **Left** (analytical) | slider 0–4 | knob/pot, 5 detents |
+| **Right** (dreamlike) | slider 0–4 | knob/pot, 5 detents |
+| **Mood** | slider −4…+4 (dark↔light) | center-detented knob |
+
+(This is the original sub-project-4 inventory, *updated*: Dark+Light collapsed
+into one **Mood** knob in session 0013, the **Altitude** encoder added in session
+0018, and the bundled 7-way **Content** dial split into orthogonal **Visual** ×
+**Audio** controls in session 0020 — see
+[`2026-06-26-audio-video-separated-controls-design.md`](./2026-06-26-audio-video-separated-controls-design.md).)
+
+## 4. Live vs. transitional controls (per-knob transition state)
+
+The five controls split into two classes by how a **human** perceives the change:
+
+- **Live controls — Left, Right, Mood, Audio.** The alteration engine treats
+  Left/Right/Mood as `LIVE_UPDATE` (the WebGL Kuwahara dream + HUD overlay + color
+  grade re-tune within a frame). **Audio** source changes are also live: a short
+  (~0.6 s) renderer-side gain crossfade between two `<audio>` elements —
+  perceptible but non-blocking, with no `settled` ack (audio spec §7). These are
+  *always idle*; the remote just shows the value.
+- **Transitional controls — Altitude, Visual.** These trigger a renderer
+  animation that takes real, perceptible time: Altitude plays ring-transition
+  clips (zoom/warp between scales); **Visual** on/off does fade-to-black /
+  fade-from-black. During that window the control is **busy**, and the control
+  source must model that so its feedback is honest.
+
+Per-transitional-control lifecycle:
+
+```
+idle ──(source sends)──▶ pending ──(renderer starts)──▶ transitioning ──(renderer settles)──▶ idle
+```
+
+- **pending** — set locally by the remote the instant the knob is turned
+  (immediate tactile feedback before the server replies).
+- **transitioning** — the server flags the field once the renderer actually
+  begins the animation; broadcast to *all* control sources.
+- **idle** — cleared when the **renderer acks completion** (the only party that
+  knows real playback timing), with a server-side max-duration timeout as a
+  safety net so a dropped renderer can't wedge a knob.
+
+Hardware payoff: a physical Altitude encoder can light an LED while
+`transitioning`; the iPad twin shows the matching spinner/disabled-detent.
+
+`SessionState` therefore carries
+`transitions: { altitude: idle|transitioning, visual: idle|transitioning }`
+alongside the controls and `seq`. (Live controls — Left/Right/Mood/Audio — need
+no entry.)
+
+## 5. Server contract
+
+Four endpoints carry the whole thing. The existing `/api/alteration`,
+`/api/ring`, `/api/ring/advance` remain as **internal helpers the server calls**;
+control sources never hit them directly.
+
+### 5.1 `GET /api/state` — snapshot (sync-on-load / polling fallback)
+
+```json
+{
+  "seq": 42,
+  "controls": { "visual": "on", "audio": "soundtrack", "left": 3, "right": 1, "mood": -2 },
+  "altitude": { "index": 2, "scale": "coast", "clip_id": "coast_07" },
+  "transitions": { "altitude": "idle", "visual": "idle" },
+  "render": {
+    "plan": { },
+    "video": { "shown": true },
+    "audio": { "source": "soundtrack", "url": "/media/audio/coast/waves.loop.mp3", "altitude_coupled": true }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+(The `render.video` + `render.audio` split and server-side `audio.url` resolution
+are specified in the audio spec §6.1.)
+
+A control source GETs this on load to draw its knobs in the right positions; the
+renderer can use it to cold-start or resync after a reconnect.
+
+### 5.2 `POST /api/control` — the one control-source contract
+
+A partial patch — only the fields that changed:
+
+```json
+{ "set": { "left": 4 },               "altitude_delta": 0 }   // live knob
+{ "set": { "audio": "white_noise" },  "altitude_delta": 0 }   // live (audio source)
+{ "set": { "visual": "off" },         "altitude_delta": 0 }   // transitional (video fade)
+{ "set": {},                          "altitude_delta": -1 }  // one encoder tick down
+```
+
+Server applies it, bumps `seq`, recomputes, and:
+
+- **live field** (Left/Right/Mood, **or an `audio` source change**) → broadcasts
+  a `state` event immediately (the renderer crossfades audio on its own, §7);
+- **transitional field** (a `visual` change, or a non-zero `altitude_delta`) →
+  computes the ring move / video fade, marks that field `transitioning`,
+  broadcasts a `ring` (or `mode`) event for the renderer to animate.
+
+Returns the new snapshot (an immediate authoritative echo for the poster).
+Absolute `set` values make retries idempotent; `altitude_delta` is relative
+(encoder ticks) and the server coalesces rapid ticks via the existing
+`advance_ring` fast-spin logic.
+
+### 5.3 `GET /api/events` — SSE stream (renderer subscribes)
+
+Event types:
+
+- `state` — full snapshot; sent on connect and on every live change (including an
+  **audio** source change, which the renderer crossfades — §7).
+- `ring` — an altitude move: the transition clip(s) to play + the landed
+  scale/clip, **plus the new `audio.url`** so the renderer can crossfade the
+  soundtrack in step (when `audio=soundtrack`). Renderer plays them, then settles.
+- `mode` — a **Visual** on/off change: the video fade the renderer should run.
+- `ping` — keepalive.
+
+The SSE event payloads reuse the existing serializers
+(`ring_move_to_dict`, `render_plan_to_dict`, etc.).
+
+### 5.4 `POST /api/render/event` — the renderer's one upstream ack
+
+```json
+{ "type": "settled", "seq": 42, "field": "altitude" }
+```
+
+Sent when the renderer finishes a transition. Server flips that field `idle` and
+broadcasts a `state` so every remote clears its spinner. A server-side timeout
+(max transition duration + margin) clears it anyway if the renderer never acks.
+
+### 5.5 End-to-end flow for one altitude tick
+
+```
+iPad: turn dial → field=pending locally → POST /api/control {altitude_delta:-1}
+server: apply, seq++, transitions.altitude="transitioning"
+        → SSE "ring" to renderer   → SSE "state" to all remotes (altitude busy)
+renderer: play transition clip(s), settle on forest_07
+        → POST /api/render/event {type:"settled", field:"altitude"}
+server: transitions.altitude="idle" → SSE "state" to all → iPad clears spinner
+```
+
+### 5.6 Decisions flagged (not assumed silently)
+
+- **Concurrency = last-write-wins.** Multiple control sources are allowed;
+  per-field last write wins, `seq` orders everything. No locking in v1.
+- **No auth.** v1 trusts the LAN — any device that can reach the laptop can drive
+  it. A room-token is deferred until wanted.
+
+## 6. The two pages
+
+### 6.1 Renderer — `/` (display), refactored from today's `index.html`
+
+- **Removes** the input controls (the Visual toggle, the Audio `<select>`, the
+  Altitude SVG, the three sliders) and their handlers.
+- **Keeps** everything that draws the experience: the video element, the **A/B
+  `<audio>` crossfade layer**, the WebGL Kuwahara dream shader, the
+  HUD/annotation + affect overlay, the ring-transition playback, the media
+  preload pool, the crossfade-loop logic.
+- **Adds** a thin `state` client: open `EventSource('/api/events')`; on `state`
+  apply controls→render live (incl. the audio crossfade); on `ring` play the
+  transition clip(s) — crossfading the soundtrack to the event's `audio.url` —
+  then settle and `POST /api/render/event {settled}`; on `mode` run the video
+  fade. On (re)connect,
+  pull `GET /api/state` to resync. SSE auto-reconnects, so a flaky link
+  self-heals.
+- Runs full-screen on the laptop driving the projector; no keyboard/mouse needed
+  once launched.
+
+### 6.2 Controller — `/remote`, a new touch-first page (the faithful twin)
+
+- The six controls laid out like the intended physical panel: **Visual** toggle +
+  **Audio** selector, **Altitude** encoder dial (reuse the existing SVG dial
+  component), **Left** / **Right** / **Mood** knobs.
+- On any input → `POST /api/control` with just the changed field. Live knobs post
+  on drag; Altitude posts encoder ticks; Visual/Audio post on change.
+- Per-knob transition state (§4): a transitional control goes **pending** on
+  touch, reflects **transitioning** from the SSE feed, clears on **settled**.
+  Altitude shows a settling indicator and its detents soft-lock (further ticks
+  queue as the next target rather than stacking); **Visual** shows the toggle as
+  pending until the video fade completes; **Audio** is live (no pending state).
+- It **also** subscribes to `/api/events` so it stays in sync with other
+  sources (turn the future Arduino's knob and the iPad reflects it, and
+  vice-versa). On load it GETs `/api/state` to draw current positions.
+- Touch-sized hit targets, no hover dependence, works in mobile Safari with no
+  install.
+
+## 7. The future-Arduino seam (contract only in v1)
+
+No firmware in this feature, but the design **proves the seam** so sub-project 4
+is a true drop-in:
+
+- **ESP32 (wifi Arduino)** → posts straight to `POST /api/control` over the LAN.
+  Zero server change. Recommended hardware target when the time comes.
+- **Classic USB Arduino** → emits serial frames to a tiny `bridge.py` on the
+  laptop that translates each frame into a `POST /api/control`. The old roadmap
+  "3⇄4 serial framing contract" shrinks to *just* the Arduino↔bridge link; the
+  renderer/server never know the difference.
+- Either way the Arduino sends **absolute pot values** (`set`) + **encoder
+  ticks** (`altitude_delta`) — exactly the iPad's message shape.
+
+This is what makes "faithful twin" real: the iPad and the Arduino are the same
+control source speaking the same contract.
+
+## 8. Error handling / resilience
+
+- **Renderer drops:** SSE auto-reconnects; on reconnect it GETs `/api/state` and
+  resyncs. The per-field transition timeout clears any knob left `transitioning`
+  by a renderer that vanished mid-animation.
+- **Controller drops / flaky wifi:** POSTs are fire-and-retry; absolute `set`
+  values are idempotent, so a retried knob value is harmless. `altitude_delta` is
+  the one relative input — on a failed POST the remote keeps the tick in its
+  local pending target and resends rather than double-counting.
+- **No renderer connected:** the server still accepts control changes and holds
+  state; a renderer that connects later catches up from the snapshot.
+- **Stale control source:** every event carries `seq`; a source ignores events
+  older than what it has applied.
+
+## 9. Testing (satisfies the mandatory pipeline tiers)
+
+- **Pure unit** — a `SessionState` store in Python: apply patch → live vs.
+  transitional classification; `altitude_delta` → ring move via the existing
+  `advance_ring`; `seq` bump; transition flag set/clear; timeout. No I/O, tested
+  like the rest of `player/`.
+- **API/contract** — `GET /api/state`; `POST /api/control` (live + transitional +
+  bad input → 422); `POST /api/render/event` clears the flag; the SSE
+  event-builder tested as a pure function.
+- **E2E (Playwright, required for the UI surface)** — open the renderer and
+  `/remote` as two pages: move a live knob → assert the renderer's render
+  updates; tick Altitude → assert a transition plays, the remote shows
+  `transitioning`, then clears on settle.
+
+## 10. Scope
+
+**In v1:**
+
+- Server `SessionState` + the four endpoints (`/api/state`, `/api/control`,
+  `/api/events`, `/api/render/event`).
+- Renderer refactor to display-only + SSE client + settled ack.
+- The `/remote` iPad twin: the five controls + per-knob transition state.
+- Wifi/LAN only; laptop renders.
+
+**Explicitly NOT in v1 (deferred):**
+
+- Any Arduino/firmware (contract defined here; hardware later).
+- Bluetooth / USB transport.
+- Auth / room-token.
+- The Pi renderer.
+- Multi-room / multi-renderer fan-out (the SSE design allows it; not a v1 goal).
+
+## 11. Roadmap impact
+
+- **Sub-project 4** is reframed: the panel is now "any control source over the
+  `/api/control` contract," not USB-serial-to-Pi first. The iPad twin is the v1
+  deliverable; the Arduino is a later drop-in.
+- **Sub-project 3's "serial input" slice** is absorbed into a transport detail
+  (the Arduino↔bridge link), no longer a Pi-coupled concern.
+- `ROADMAP.md` to be updated at implementation time.

+# Scrub-driven Altitude Transitions — Design
+
+**Status:** Approved (brainstormed 2026-06-27, session 0024). Ready for writing-plans.
+
+## Goal
+
+Make the altitude transition **driven by the knob position** rather than auto-played.
+Turning the physical knob (or, in the simulator, dragging the Altitude dial) at any
+speed scrubs the morph video and crossfades the audio in lockstep with the knob. The
+knob position *is* the scene: turn slow → the morph eases slowly; turn fast → it
+races; stop halfway → it holds in a mid-morph blend; turn back → it reverses exactly.
+
+This supersedes the timed dial-needle sweep (the dial-vs-video sync problem dissolves
+because the knob and the transition become the same thing).
+
+## Core model
+
+A continuous **altitude position** `pos` (float): integers are altitudes/detents,
+fractions are mid-morph blend. `pos = 2.4` ⇒ 40 % from coast (index 2) toward reef
+(index 3). The knob/needle maps directly to `pos`; the morph video's `currentTime`
+and the audio crossfade are scrubbed by `frac(pos)`.
+
+**Decisions (locked):**
+- **In-between state:** hold the blend wherever the knob stops — no auto-complete
+  (continuous encoder model). *(Q1 → a)*
+- **Turn-back:** scrubs the same morph in reverse; lands on exactly the previous
+  altitude's clip you started from (fully reversible).
+- **Destination randomness:** the next altitude's clip is a random pick from its pool,
+  **fixed during a single continuous gesture**, **re-rolled on each fresh approach**.
+  *(Q → a)*
+- **Scroll wheel:** auto-scrub one altitude over ~0.6 s, then lock. *(Q2 → a)*
+- **Lock-per-altitude** still holds: a resting altitude's clip stays locked until you
+  commit into a different one.
+
+## Components
+
+### 1. Scrub controller (frontend — `simulator/static/app.js`)
+Replaces the discrete `advance(delta)` "commit then play" for drag/knob input.
+- Drives `pos` from the dial pointer angle: `pos = restPos + accum / dialStep`. The
+  needle follows continuously (the needle *is* the knob — live follow is correct here).
+- For the active segment `[floor, floor+1]` in the travel direction, sets
+  `vid.currentTime = frac(pos) × vid.duration`, **throttled to one seek per
+  `requestAnimationFrame`** (avoid seek thrash).
+- Crossing an integer **commits**: the crossed altitude's chosen clip becomes the
+  locked `activeClipId`, `ringIndex` updates, and the next segment begins (re-roll).
+- Reversible: `pos` decreasing scrubs the morph backward.
+- Keep the pure, testable bits separable (position→segment, `frac`→currentTime,
+  integer-crossing commit, re-roll-on-fresh-approach) from the DOM/event glue.
+
+### 2. Clip selection / lock
+Entering a segment toward neighbor `k±1`, pick a random clip from that scale's pool
+(client-side) and resolve the directed morph via the existing
+`morphByPair["<fromClip>→<toClip>"]` lookup (built from `ring.transitions`). Fixed for
+the gesture; re-rolled on a fresh approach. *(This moves the random pick client-side
+for responsiveness vs the current server pick in `/api/ring/advance`; acceptable for
+the simulator — the Pi player can mirror the same client-side pick. `pick_clip_id` in
+`player/ring.py` stays the canonical pure helper.)*
+
+### 3. Audio crossfade (frontend)
+During a segment, crossfade the two adjacent scale soundtracks by `frac(pos)` (gains
+`1-frac` / `frac`); at rest only the current scale plays. Hook into the existing audio
+layer (`applyAudio` / the per-scale `audio` field in the ring).
+
+### 4. Morph media re-bake (pipeline — `simulator/build_pool_manifest.py`)
+Smooth scrubbing = seeking to arbitrary frames, which needs **dense keyframes**. The
+current morphs use a sparse GOP, so they scrub "steppy." Re-bake the 154 morphs
+**all-intra** (e.g. x264 `-g 1` / `keyint=1`, or `-intra`) so every frame is seekable.
+Files grow (~176 MB → ~0.5–0.9 GB) but each clip stays small (front-end upload limit is
+a non-issue; that was the 68 MB *base*, unrelated). Media is committed via **git-LFS**
+(see `.gitattributes`); re-push after re-baking.
+
+**Phasing:** build the interaction first against the *current* morphs to validate the
+feel (will scrub somewhat steppy), then re-bake all-intra for smoothness. Two plan
+phases.
+
+### 5. Wheel + tap
+- **Wheel:** auto-scrub `pos` by ±1 over ~0.6 s (drives the same scrub path), then lock.
+- **Tap a dial label:** auto-scrub to that altitude the shortest way around.
+
+## Testing
+- **Unit (pytest or JS):** the pure controller logic — position→segment mapping,

+- Concurrent unfinalized sessions present (0015, 0017).
+
+## Arc (turn by turn)
+
+1. **Anchor + research.** Classified as planning-and-executing, claimed session
+   0018. Found the current cosmos clip was already the uncropped text-free SVS
+   30957 Orion (the crop damage the prompt described was already fixed at HEAD).
+   Researched NASA SVS: (a) the same Orion clip exists in 4K; (b) the Webb
+   **"Cosmic Cliffs"** Carina flythrough (SVS 31348) is a 4K PD alternative.
+   Offered three options; **operator chose #2 — switch to Cosmic Cliffs.**
+
+2. **Cosmos swap (PR #21).** Downloaded the Carina 4K master
+   (`Clifs-3d-STScI.mp4`, 3840×2160, 60 fps, 103 s), sampled frames to find a
+   clean window, trimmed **10–34 s** (clears the title card ~8 s and the
+   end-credit card ~102 s), ran `tools.pipeline.run.process_clip` → 4K master +
+   supersampled 1080p base (5.5 Mbps, crisper than the old 2.9 Mbps Orion encode).
+   Updated `build_pool_manifest.py` META (new `CCBY_WEBB` credit, Carina labels:
+   emission nebula / protostar, redshift→distance ≈7,500 ly), regenerated
+   `manifest.json` (also corrected stale JPL-Orion provenance) + all ring-edge
+   transitions, and `docs/content-candidate-pool.md`. Operator authorized the
+   merge → opened + merged **PR #21** (the whole `feature/ring-transitions-real`
+   line), synced main, deleted the local branch. Remote branch delete returned
+   HTTP 405 (known Gitea perm limit).
+
+3. **"Still seeing Orion" — caching (PRs #22, #23).** Diagnosed: the sim server
+   (PID 33672) had been running since before the media swap and was launched
+   **without `--reload`**, holding the pre-swap manifest in memory; the browser
+   also held the old clip via the in-memory blob preload and a possible pre-
+   `no-cache` immutable HTTP entry. Restarted the server with `make sim-local`
+   (`--reload`). Shipped **PR #22** (`cache: "reload"` on the preload fetch), then
+   — at operator request for a permanent fix — **PR #23**: a content-hash
+   `GET /api/media-versions` endpoint (sha1[:12] per served file, cached by
+   mtime/size) and client `?v=<hash>` on every /media URL, so a re-baked clip's
+   URL changes with its bytes.
+
+4. **Coast landing artifact (in PR #23).** Operator noticed zooming into coast
+   showed birdrock then switched to another clip. Root cause: the baked ring
+   transition lands on the scale **primary** (birdrock), but the rotating pool
+   picks a **random member** on landing — a non-primary pick hard-cut from primary
+   to chosen. Fix: `advance()` masks the swap behind a short fade through the
+   existing `#black` overlay when `target_clip_id !== ring.scales[to_index].clip_id`;
+   general across all pooled scales.
+
+5. **Right-brain affect (PR #24).** Operator: emotions should be controlled by the
+   right brain, not the left. Reversed `affect.strength = min(left, right)` →
+   `strength = right`; intensity keyed off Right; Left no longer gates emotions.
+   Updated engine + client comments + the affect design spec (revision note) +
+   tests. Live-verified: left=0/right=4 → strength 4; left=4/right=0 → 0.
+
+## Cut state
+
+- **`main` @ (session-0018 merges all landed):** PRs **#21** (`7da7446`), **#22**
+  (`aa56dfe`), **#23** (`5bb762a`), **#24** (`d0ad9a9`) — all confirmed in main's
+  ancestry. Session 0019 has since advanced main further (cosmos_miri pool member,
+  networked-control-surface spec, sim-local venv fix).
+- **Tests:** 271 passed, 2 skipped (+ media-version tests + rewritten affect
+  tests).
+- **Sim:** running on :8000 as `uvicorn --reload` (PID 50199, restarted this
+  session). The cosmos Cosmic Cliffs clip, content-hash cache-bust, coast fade,
+  and Right-only affect are all live and API/logic-verified.
+- **No plan artifact** archived — leaf content/polish task executed directly
+  (no `superpowers:writing-plans` doc).
+
+## Operator plate
+
+- **Cosmic Cliffs looks "incredible"** (operator) — the cosmos primary is now the
+  Webb Carina flythrough.
+- **Unverified by eye** (no Chrome on the box): the coast landing fade timing, and
+  the Right-only affect look (Left=0 + Right up should show emotion words over an
+  un-annotated scene). Worth a by-eye pass in `make sim-local`.
+- **Pipeline §9:** changes merged to `main` (= done); no PPE/prod run — the E2E +
+  PPE machinery is still being built (§10.6), and the simulator is a local dev
+  surface. Not shipped to prod.
+- **Left untouched (not this session's work):** session 0019's in-flight audio
+  work is dirty in the tree (`docs/audio-candidate-pool.md`, `.gitignore` audio
+  entries) — left for 0019 to finalize. Pre-existing unfinalized sessions 0015,
+  0017, 0019 remain `--INPROGRESS`.
+
+## Deferred decisions
+
+None logged — every call this session was operator-directed (the option-2 clip
+choice, the permanent cache-bust request, the Right-brain affect direction).
+
+## Next-session prompt
+
+```
+/goal By-eye review of session 0018's sim changes in `make sim-local` (:8000): the

+> Status: **FINALIZED**
+
+## Launch prompt
+
+```
+Let's start talking about hardware. Let's assume for the first version I'm ok having my computer or laptop do the rendering. We'd still want a controller but it could be connected to the computer via wifi, USB, or bluetooth and would send commands to the software we've already written that would adjust left brain, right brain, etc. We'd prototype this by having a controller simulator run on another device, such as an ipad (just riffing here) but eventually move to a physical remote running on an Arduino or similar
+```
+
+## Pre-state
+
+- Simulator is a **FastAPI** app, **stateless**: the single browser holds knob
+  state in JS and POSTs to `/api/alteration` for a `RenderPlan`. Renderer and
+  controller are the same browser tab.
+- Operator-facing control surface (sim today): Content (7-way `<select>`),
+  Altitude (endless circular dial across 5 scales), Left/Right (sliders 0–4),
+  Mood (slider −4…+4). (Dark+Light → Mood in s0013; Altitude dial in s0018.)
+- ROADMAP sub-project 4 = "Arduino Firmware (control panel)" assuming a **Pi**
+  runs the room and the panel talks **USB serial** to it.
+- Standing directive: simulator-first before hardware.
+- Checkout shared with a concurrent audio-sourcing session (0017/0018), with
+  uncommitted `.gitignore` + untracked files on `main`.
+
+## Arc
+
+1. **Session gate / routing.** Classified the opening ("let's talk about
+   hardware… just riffing") as **brainstorming**; invoked `wgl-brainstorming`,
+   claimed session **0019** (`--type brainstorming`, careful posture). Three stale
+   `--INPROGRESS` sessions (0015/0017/0018) noted as leftovers, not live overlaps;
+   no worktree (the audio session's edits are unrelated/uncommitted).
+
+2. **Orientation.** Read `docs/ROADMAP.md` + the simulator (`app.py`, `index.html`)
+   to ground the discussion; confirmed the real control surface and the stateless
+   architecture. Recognized the request as a **reframe** of sub-project 4.
+
+3. **Brainstorming dialogue** (`superpowers:brainstorming`), decisions reached:
+   - **Intent:** both — decouple control/display cleanly AND want the handheld feel.
+   - **Transport (v1):** wifi/web (iPad opens a controller page off the FastAPI
+     server; least friction; Arduino transport left open).
+   - **Remote fidelity:** faithful twin — decide the physical panel inventory now,
+     iPad mirrors it.
+   - Operator refinement: **per-knob transition state** — live controls
+     (Left/Right/Mood) are instant; transitional ones (Altitude, Content) carry a
+     lifecycle so the remote's feedback is honest.
+   - **Architecture:** approach A — server-authoritative `SessionState` + **SSE**
+     push (chosen over polling / WebRTC).
+
+4. **Design presented section by section** (roles → transition model → server
+   contract → two pages + Arduino seam → error/test/scope), each approved.
+
+5. **Spec written** to
+   `docs/superpowers/specs/2026-06-26-networked-control-surface-design.md`,
+   committed on `feat/networked-control-surface`, pushed; operator approved going
+   straight to finalize.
+
+6. **Finalize.** Single-repo app (CONTENT_REMOTE empty) → merging the branch IS
+   the submission. Discovered the shared checkout had switched to `main` (the
+   audio session) and `main` had advanced to PR #25; landed the spec via a safe
+   local `--no-ff` merge that added only the new spec file (their uncommitted work
+   untouched), pushed `main` (`229af60..f28a06c`), deleted the feature branch.
+
+## Cut state
+
+- `main` @ `f28a06c` — spec merged. Feature branch deleted.
+- Spec `status: proposed` (careful posture); operator reviewed it live, approving
+  every section before write.
+- No code written (brainstorming session). 0 new tests (none applicable).
+- Concurrent audio session's uncommitted `.gitignore`/untracked files left intact.

+approved in-session, not deferred._

+- `main` clean at 99a751c. Two stale `--INPROGRESS` placeholders (0015, 0017) from
+  2026-06-24/25 — prior dead sessions, not live; left untouched.
+- The networked-control-surface architecture (SSE / `/remote` / renderer split) was
+  **unbuilt** — the sim is a single fused page (`simulator/static/index.html`) talking
+  to FastAPI via `POST /api/alteration` (knobs) + `POST /api/ring/advance` (altitude).
+- Audio assets (5 sourced ambiences) sat gitignored under `simulator/sample_media/audio/<scale>/`,
+  unreferenced by the manifest, unserved; no `<audio>` element anywhere; video muted.
+
+## Session arc (turn by turn)
+
+1. **Session gate → writing-plans.** Classified the two-part "write the plan, then
+   build it" prompt as the build track's entry; claimed session **0020** (`--type
+   writing-plans`, careful posture). Baseline clean; created branch `session-0020`.
+2. **Scoping.** Read both specs + the audio candidate pool; dispatched an Explore
+   agent to map the current simulator. Key finding: the control-surface architecture
+   is unbuilt, so the audio spec's §6 server contract had no host. **Resolved by the
+   standing simulator-first directive:** build the audio feature into the current
+   single-page sim (ships sound now); reframe the control-surface spec on paper only;
+   do NOT build the SSE/`/remote`/renderer split (it's "v1 hardware," deferred). This
+   build is the "Content step" the audio spec §11 anticipates.
+3. **Plan.** Wrote `docs/superpowers/plans/2026-06-26-audio-video-separated-controls.md`
+   (10 tasks, all testing tiers). Committed + pushed; presented at the careful-posture
+   plan gate. Operator answered **"Approve — build it."** §12 decisions resolved:
+   audio=live (~0.6 s crossfade), noise=pink, autoplay=tap-to-start overlay; asset
+   params −18 LUFS / mp3 / loop mirrors the proven video crossfade recipe.
+4. **Build (TDD, commit per task):**
+   - T1–2: pure ffmpeg audio builders (`tools/pipeline/audio_ops.py`) + runner
+     (`audio_run.py`) + `simulator/build_audio_media.py`; produced the 5 normalized
+     loops + pink-noise bed (gitignored).
+   - T3: `Scale.audio` manifest field + read/emit/serialize + `SCALE_AUDIO`; manifest
+     regenerated (clean diff — only 5 audio lines).
+   - T4–6: pure `player/audio.py` resolver; retired `player/content.py` (+ test);
+     reframed `player/controls.py` + `player/state.py`; `/api/alteration` validates
+     visual+audio and returns `render.video` + server-resolved `render.audio.url` from
+     `altitude_index`. Full Python suite green.
+   - T7–8: client — Content `<select>` → Visual toggle + Audio selector; A/B `<audio>`
+     gain-crossfade layer; tap-to-start gesture. Smoke-tested page + media (200s).
+   - T9: reframed the networked-control-surface spec §3/§4/§5/§6; recorded §12
+     resolutions; ROADMAP note.
+   - T10: Playwright E2E (`[e2e]` extra). Installed Chromium and ran it for real —
+     surfaced + fixed three client issues (see Cut state). **3 E2E pass**, full suite
+     **288 passed, 2 skipped**.
+5. **Verify + ship.** Screenshotted the running app (cosmos plays, soundtrack audibly
+   playing `cosmos/pillars.loop.mp3`, split controls visible, zero JS errors). Merged
+   `session-0020` → `main` (`--no-ff`) and pushed. (`gh` PR create denied — Gitea host;
+   merged locally with branch→merge discipline.)
+
+## Deferred decisions
+
+_No low-confidence autonomous calls. The scope decision (current-sim vs full control
+surface) was approved at the plan gate; the three §12 resolutions were operator-
+delegated by the launch prompt ("resolve the three flagged decisions"); asset params
+(−18 LUFS, mp3, pink) follow the spec's stated direction._
+
+## Cut state
+
+- `main` @ `aa76cd1` (merge of session-0020), clean, synced with origin.
+- **288 tests + 3 Playwright E2E pass; 2 skipped** (opt-in media integration).
+- Three client robustness fixes the E2E drove out (worth remembering):
+  - `fadeVolume` uses `setInterval`, not `requestAnimationFrame` (rAF stalls when the
+    tab is backgrounded → the gain ramp hung in headless).
+  - The start gesture drops per-element "priming": a single page click grants Chrome
+    autoplay document-wide; priming srcless `<audio>` only hung the handler / polluted
+    the paused-state.
+  - `applyAudio` does not `await` `play()` (awaiting a srcless/buffering play can hang).
+- Plan archival: this app has **no content repo** (`CONTENT_REMOTE` empty), so the plan
+  was not archived to a `plans/` collection — it lives in-repo at
+  `docs/superpowers/plans/` and is already on `main`.
+- §9 pipeline: localhost + E2E stage is **green**; there is no PPE/prod infra for this

+
+## Pre-state
+
+- Session 0020 had just merged the audio feature to `main` (Visual×Audio split,
+  per-altitude soundtracks, pink white-noise, A/B crossfade). The operator tested it
+  live and reported three issues.
+
+## Session arc
+
+1. **Diagnosis (the key work).** Both reported bugs were reproduced *only* in the
+   operator's real browser — neither appeared in headless Chromium **or** WebKit
+   (installed `playwright install webkit` to test Safari's engine). Root causes:
+   - **Video-off doesn't blank:** `#vid` (`<video>`) and `#paint` (WebGL `<canvas>`)
+     are GPU-composited layers; the `#black` cover had *auto* z-index, so on a real
+     GPU (Safari/Chrome) the video layer can composite *above* it despite DOM order.
+     Headless software-raster hides this.
+   - **No soundtrack audio:** real Safari/iOS unlocks an `<audio>` element only when
+     `play()` is called *synchronously inside* the user gesture; the 0020 gesture
+     played in an async continuation (after `await fetch`), which Chrome allows but
+     Safari blocks. Headless WebKit relaxes autoplay, so it passed.
+   This is the session's main lesson: **Playwright headless relaxes both GPU
+   compositing and autoplay**, so the 0020 E2E couldn't have caught either — real
+   device / by-eye review is required.
+2. **Fixes (branch `session-0021`):**
+   - **Video** + **Audio** are now Dev-Mode-style on/off toggles (`.dev-switch`),
+     wired on `change`. Audio on → soundtrack; **white-noise deferred** (removed from
+     the live control; `AUDIO_SOURCES={off,soundtrack}`; the pure pink-noise
+     machinery + tests stay for later).
+   - Video-off: `.black` gets `z-index:50` + `translateZ(0)` (own layer) **and** the
+     video layers are set `opacity:0` on video-off (belt-and-suspenders blanking).
+   - Safari audio: the tap-to-start gesture now primes both A/B `<audio>` elements
+     **synchronously in-gesture** (set src, vol 0, `play().then(pause)`), unlocking
+     the later async crossfades.
+   - Server: `player/audio.py` resolver + `controls.py`/`state.py` + `/api/alteration`
+     drop white-noise; `build_audio_media.py` stops emitting the noise bed.
+3. **Verify + ship.** Updated unit/contract/E2E tests; rewrote the 3 E2E for the new
+   toggles (click the visible `.dev-switch-track`; wait for the opacity transition).
+   **288 passed, 2 skipped.** Re-verified in **both Chromium and WebKit**: Audio toggle
+   plays `cosmos/pillars.loop.mp3`, video-off sets vid+paint opacity 0 with `#black`
+   shown, zero JS errors; screenshotted the new toggle UI. Merged `session-0021` →
+   `main` and pushed. (Also untracked a stray `docs/.threads/*.json` editor artifact
+   swept in by `git add -A`, and gitignored `.threads/`.)
+
+## Deferred decisions
+
+_No low-confidence calls. All three changes were explicit operator requests; the
+root-cause fixes (GPU z-index/layer-hide; Safari in-gesture unlock) are the standard
+remedies for these well-known browser behaviors._
+
+## Cut state
+
+- `main` @ `fddb6d6` (merge of session-0021), clean, pushed.
+- **288 tests + 3 Playwright E2E pass** (2 skipped: opt-in media integration).
+- White-noise is deferred, not deleted: `tools/pipeline/audio_ops.white_noise_args` +
+  `audio_run.generate_white_noise` + their tests remain; only the live control + the
+  build-script emission were removed.
+- **Unvalidated by this session:** real-device audio (Safari autoplay) and real-GPU

+
+## Pre-state
+
+- Sessions 0020/0021 had shipped the audio feature + a 0021 "Safari fix" (tap-to-start
+  overlay that primed A/B `<audio>` elements). The operator reported audio STILL
+  silent on their real browser (even in private mode), plus the UX requests above.
+
+## Session arc
+
+1. **Why the 0021 fix failed.** It primed *srcless* A/B elements in the tap gesture
+   and played the real audio in an *async continuation* (after `await fetch`). Safari
+   unlocks an element only when `play()` runs **synchronously inside** the gesture and
+   on an element **with a src** — so neither condition was met. Headless WebKit relaxes
+   autoplay, which is why automated tests never caught it.
+2. **Redesign (client-only, branch `session-0022`):**
+   - **Single `<audio id="aud">`** element (dropped A/B). It's played **synchronously
+     inside the toggle's own `change` handler** — the canonical Safari unlock. Altitude
+     changes reuse the now-unlocked element with a brief fade-swap.
+   - **"Loading Universe…" splash** (`#loading`, in the HTML so it shows pre-JS): `main()`
+     now `await`s `preloadAllMedia()` (driving a progress bar), then `hideLoading()`.
+     Replaces the tap-to-start wall.
+   - **Both toggles default OFF** (black + silent at start) — no autoplay needed until a
+     toggle is flipped.
+   - **First Video-on couples Audio:** the Video `change` handler, on the first on,
+     sets `#audio` checked and plays — in the same gesture (so it unlocks on Safari).
+     Audio toggled on first stays audio-only.
+   - Server contract unchanged (`{off,soundtrack}`); the client now drives playback
+     directly from the ring's `scale.audio`, ignoring `render.audio`.
+3. **Verify + ship.** Rewrote the 5 E2E for the new flow (single `#aud`, no gesture,
+   loading wait, the coupling, video-off blanking). Caught a test bug — `#black.hidden`
+   is `display:none`, so `wait_for_selector` default (visible) timed out; switched to
+   `state="attached"`. **290 passed, 2 skipped; 5 E2E pass.** Verified in headless
+   **Chromium AND WebKit**: first-Video-on couples audio, soundtrack plays, video shows,
+   zero JS errors; screenshotted the splash + running app. Merged to `main`.
+
+## Deferred decisions
+
+_No low-confidence calls — all three were explicit operator requests. The
+single-element synchronous-in-gesture play is the standard Safari remedy._
+
+## Cut state
+
+- `main` @ `4ac39c9`, clean, pushed. 290 tests + 5 Playwright E2E pass.
+- **Honest caveat — still unverifiable headlessly:** every engine Playwright ships
+  (Chromium, WebKit) relaxes autoplay, so I cannot *prove* real-Safari/iOS now plays.
+  The fix is the canonical pattern (sync `play()` in the gesture, real src) and is a
+  genuine change from 0021's broken approach — but it needs the operator's real-device ear.
+

+## Launch prompt (the thread)
+
+> "I still can't hear" → (after diagnostics) operator screenshot: `audio: on, PAUSED
+> (readyState 0)` and "the audio check works" with `ring=server · url=NONE` → "the
+> video didn't come on when I turned it on" → after the fix: **"yes, both"** (video
+> and audio confirmed working).
+
+## Pre-state
+
+- Sessions 0020–0022 had shipped the audio/video feature + three "Safari autoplay"
+  fixes that were verified only in headless browsers and **did not work** for the
+  operator. Audio was silent; this session set out to find the real cause.
+
+## Session arc — the debugging
+
+1. **Stop guessing; instrument.** Three blind fixes had failed because headless
+   Playwright (Chromium *and* WebKit) relaxes autoplay, so the bug was never
+   reproducible. Added a **live `#audio-status` readout** (surfacing the previously
+   *swallowed* `play()` errors + `aud.error`) and a **native `<audio controls>` test
+   player** that plays the file with zero app code involved. Confirmed the server
+   already honors HTTP Range (`206`) + `audio/mpeg` — not a serving problem.
+2. **The decisive readout.** Operator reported: the **native player works** (file +
+   codec + browser audio all fine), but the toggle showed
+   **`ring=server · url=NONE`** with `readyState 0` and no media error — meaning my
+   code never set a source because `soundtrackUrl()` returned null.
+3. **Root cause = a STALE uvicorn server.** The operator's Python process predated the
+   0020 audio/video work, so it (a) returns `/api/ring` without the per-scale `audio`
+   field, and (b) requires the old 7-way `content` — it **422s** the new
+   `{visual,audio}` payload and returns `{content:{video}}` instead of
+   `{render:{video:{shown}}}`. So audio had no url AND the Video toggle's POST failed
+   (→ "video didn't come on"). Reloading never fixes it (only refreshes static assets,
+   not the Python process).
+4. **Fix = make the client resilient to a stale server** (so no restart is needed):
+   - `soundtrackUrl()` falls back to a scale-id→file map (`SCALE_AUDIO_FALLBACK`,
+     mirrors `build_pool_manifest.SCALE_AUDIO`).
+   - `controls()` also sends a back-compat `content` field (current server ignores it;
+     an old one ignores visual/audio).
+   - `update()` reads "video shown" from **either** response shape.
+   Verified end-to-end against a **simulated fully-stale server** (routed old
+   `/api/alteration` shape + stripped ring audio) in Chromium **and** WebKit: Video on
+   → video shows + soundtrack plays, zero errors. **Operator confirmed "yes, both".**
+5. **Cleanup.** Tucked the audio diagnostics (status readout + native player) under the
+   **Dev Mode** panel — kept for future debugging, out of the installation UI.
+
+## Deferred decisions
+
+_No low-confidence calls. One judgment worth noting: I added permanent client
+back-compat for a pre-release internal API to unblock the operator without a server
+restart. The clean long-term fix is restarting the dev server; the shim is harmless and
+removes the dependency. Flagging in case a future cleanup wants to drop it once servers
+are reliably current._
+
+## Cut state
+
+- `main` @ `6427ab4`, clean, pushed. **292 tests + 7 Playwright E2E pass** (2 skipped).
+- Audio + Video experience **works and is operator-confirmed** on the real device.
+- New E2E regressions: stale-ring soundtrack fallback, audio-then-video ordering.
+- The operator's actual server is still stale — recommended (not required) they restart
+  it so the API is current; the client no longer depends on it.
+
+## Operator plate / lesson
+
+- **The big lesson (recorded in memory):** headless Playwright relaxes BOTH autoplay and
+  GPU compositing, so it cannot reproduce real-browser/real-server issues. When a fix
+  "passes headless" but the operator still sees the bug, **instrument with on-screen
+  readouts + a native control** to get their real data — don't ship another blind guess.
+  Three rounds were lost to this before instrumenting.

+
+## Next /goal
+
+Build **scrub-driven altitude transitions** per the approved design at
+`docs/superpowers/specs/2026-06-27-scrub-driven-altitude-transitions-design.md`:
+knob position continuously scrubs the morph `currentTime` + crossfades adjacent
+scale audio (hold-partway, reversible, re-roll on fresh approach, wheel auto-scrubs
+one altitude). Phase 1: interaction on current morphs. Phase 2: re-bake all 154
+morphs all-intra for smooth seeking + re-push LFS. Writing-plans → executing-plans
+in a fresh session. (Operator was handed a ready-to-paste prompt.)
+
+## Launch prompt
+
+> Fix altitude/video transition: video shouldn't switch when changing altitudes;
+> good zoom transition for every video combination; video must not change after
+> zooming to a new altitude.
+
+Operator refinements during orientation:
+- **Lock per altitude until the altitude is changed** — on arrival, pick the
+  clip once and keep it; no secondary swap, no re-roll while parked.
+- **Choose the destination clip BEFORE transitioning, then play the appropriate
+  morph footage.** We need morph footage for ALL transitions between ALL videos
+  in adjacent altitudes (both directions).
+
+## Plan
+
+Anchor: leaf change extending player `design.md §3` (scale navigation & zoom
+transitions) + content-pipeline. **Scope reality:** clip-pair-keyed morph system
+— **154 morph clips** (77 adjacent video pairs × 2 directions) up from 5 per-edge
+morphs; touches the bake pipeline (`build_pool_manifest.py`), the ring contract
+(`player/ring.py`), manifest/transition schema (`simulator/clips.py`), the
+`/api/ring/advance` endpoint (`simulator/app.py`), the frontend `advance()`/lock
+(`simulator/static/app.js`), and a new Playwright E2E tier. Writing-plans session:
+author ONE plan, stop at the review gate.
+
+## Deferred decisions
+
+- The dial-needle **sweep** (synced to the morph) is verified working in Chromium +
+  WebKit both directions, but the operator's real Safari still showed it "not
+  working" — root cause likely stale cached `app.js` (Safari refresh confusion),
+  never fully confirmed. Moot: the **scrub-driven redesign supersedes** the dial
+  interaction entirely. The sweep commit merged to main as an interim improvement.
+- **git-LFS front-proxy upload limit** (HTTP 413 on the 68 MB base): resolved by
+  transcoding rather than raising the server limit — the operator couldn't locate
+  the front-proxy VM (`35.238.203.16`, nginx, not in any gcloud project I could
+  reach) this session. Raising that limit is a deferred infra task.
+
+## Arc
+
+**Pre-state.** Altitude dial (PR #18, s0016) navigated a 5-scale ring with **5
+per-edge** morphs (scale-primary→primary). Landing picked a random pool member, but
+`advance()` played the edge morph (ending on the primary) then did a jarring
+fade-to-black **secondary swap** to the random member. Operator: "video switches when
+changing altitudes; must not change after zooming."
+
+**What we built (writing-plans → executing, planning-and-executing).**
+1. Orientation + clarification: lock-per-altitude; **pick destination first then play
+   the matching morph**; morphs for **all adjacent video pairs both directions** (154);
+   multi-detent **chains** through each altitude.
+2. Wrote + reviewed the plan (`docs/superpowers/plans/2026-06-27-altitude-clip-pair-morph-lock.md`);
+   operator approved + asked to execute in-session → switched to yolo.
+3. Executed TDD: per-clip-pair manifest + member-pair baking; `Transition`/`morph_for`/
+   `resolve_move` in `player/ring.py`; `resolved_move_to_dict`; `/api/ring/advance`
+   `from_clip_id`; frontend pick→morph→lock (no secondary swap); regenerated 154
+   morphs. pytest 302 passed; new **Playwright E2E tier** 2 passed.
+4. **Media graduation:** operator flagged that "sample" media is actually the
+   experience — committed bases + audio + 154 morphs (~526 MB) via **git-LFS → Gitea
+   LFS store**. Hit HTTP 413 on the 68 MB `coast_birdrock` base at the front proxy;
+   **transcoded it 68→22 MB** (re-baked its 16 morphs) to ship. Pushed; merged to main.
+5. Polish loop on the **dial/transition timing** (sweep → removed live drag pre-move),
+   then operator **reframed**: knob position should *drive* the transition (scrub),
+   not the dial follow the video. Brainstormed + wrote the **scrub-driven design spec**;
+   handed off a prompt to build it in a fresh session.
+
+**Recurring lesson re-confirmed:** the operator's mid-session "no transitions" was a
+**stale uvicorn** (served new `app.js` from disk but old in-memory API returning the
+deleted old-named morph files → 404). Fix = restart uvicorn with the venv python.
+
+**Cut state.** `main` (528fb5c) has the shipped feature, LFS media, E2E tier, both the
+plan and the scrub design spec. No content repo → plan archived in-repo under `docs/`
+(gap flagged). Simulator is localhost-only (no PPE/prod) → no §9 deploy stage; verified
+green locally. Next increment (scrub) deferred to a fresh session.

+capture this as an issue. We'll implement the network feature later but want it as an Epic, then the remote simulator (e.g. ipad) as a feature with this design
+```
+
+## Pre-state
+
+- Immediately followed session 0019 (brainstorming), which merged the
+  **networked control surface** design SPEC to `main`
+  (`docs/superpowers/specs/2026-06-26-networked-control-surface-design.md`).
+- Operator wants the work captured as backlog (deferred — "implement later"): an
+  **Epic** for the whole networked feature, and a **Feature** for the iPad remote
+  twin anchored to that spec.
+- Single-repo app: tracker = `benstull/human-experience-filter-art` on
+  git.benstull.org; no separate content repo (`CONTENT_REMOTE` empty).
+- Checkout shared with concurrent sessions (0024 live on its own branch).
+
+## Arc
+
+1. **Routing.** Classified the request as **capture**; invoked `wgl-capture`,
+   claimed tracked-lite session **0025** (capture / careful).
+
+2. **Target resolve.** Single-repo app → drafted into this repo's working-tree
+   `issues/` (ephemeral, INV-8); tracker is this repo on git.benstull.org.
+
+3. **Two asks identified** (per handbook §4.3 sizing): an **Epic** (multi-Feature
+   umbrella — the networked control surface) and a **Feature** (single increment —
+   the iPad web remote twin, the spec's v1 scope). Both type-fit cleanly.
+
+4. **Drafted both** in the content repo's `issues/` at business altitude (Epic +
+   Feature business sections free of implementation specifics; the design spec
+   referenced as orientation). Presented for review; operator approved filing both
+   at **P2** via `AskUserQuestion`.
+
+5. **Filing.** Label-ensure first hit a **401** — the default issue-token service
+   resolved to the wrong host. Fixed by pointing `WGL_CAPTURE_TOKEN_SERVICE` at the
+   host-specific Keychain entry `wgl-gitea-issues-readwrite-token-git.benstull.org`.
+   Then ensured capture labels (9 created) and filed:
+   - **Epic #26** — "Networked control surface — drive the experience from a
+     separate control device" (`type/epic`, P2).
+   - **Feature #27** — "Remote controller simulator — drive the experience from an
+     iPad web twin over wifi" (`type/feature`, P2; parent #26).
+   (Typecheck advisory labels 401'd — fail-open, skipped; no effect on the issues.)
+
+6. **Cleanup.** Deleted both filed drafts (Gitea = system of record, INV-8);
+   removed the now-empty `issues/` dir; working tree carries no drafts.
+
+## Cut state
+
+- Filed: **Epic #26**, **Feature #27** (parent #26), both `priority/P2`, deferred.
+- No repo commits this session (capture is tracked-lite; drafts ephemeral). The
+  dirty tree on branch `session-0024` is the **concurrent session's** work
+  (`build_pool_manifest.py` + a test) — left untouched.
+- Memory updated: `networked-control-surface-spec.md` records the filed issues +
+  a deferred "when resumed" pointer; `MEMORY.md` index refreshed.
+
+## Deferred decisions
+
+_None — no autonomous low-confidence calls. Type assignment and P2 priority were
+operator-approved in-session._
+
+## Type-fit tally
+
+`type-fit: judged 2, mismatch 0, overridden 0` (judged against §4.3 informally;
+the typecheck-label markers could not be stamped — advisory token 401, fail-open).
+
+## Operator plate
+
+- The networked-control work is now backlog: **#26** (Epic) / **#27** (Feature),
+  deferred per "implement later".
+- Token note for future capture on this host: use
+  `WGL_CAPTURE_TOKEN_SERVICE=wgl-gitea-issues-readwrite-token-git.benstull.org`
+  (the unscoped default resolves to the wrong host and 401s).
+
+## Next /goal
+
+No new immediate next from this capture — the work is parked on the tracker
+(#26/#27, deferred). When the operator resumes hardware:
+
+```
+/goal Write the implementation plan for the remote controller simulator, per docs/superpowers/specs/2026-06-26-networked-control-surface-design.md (Feature #27)
+```
+
+The active project frontier remains the per-altitude music layer (see the
+`audio-soundtrack-sourcing` memory), not this deferred thread.

+
+Scrub-driven altitude transitions. Continuous `pos` (float) drives morph `currentTime` +
+two-soundtrack audio crossfade by `frac(pos)`; integer crossing commits + locks + re-rolls.
+Phase 1 = interaction against current morphs; Phase 2 = all-intra re-bake (154 morphs, LFS).

+ audio gains track the dial and reverse on turn-back.
+
+### Progress (checkpoint @ Phase-1 done)
+
+- Plan: `docs/superpowers/plans/2026-06-27-scrub-driven-altitude-transitions.md` (approved "execute as-is").
+- **Phase 1 DONE** (branch `session-0026`, 5 commits):
+  - T1 `simulator/static/scrub.js` (pure UMD math) + `simulator/unit/scrub.test.js` (9 `node --test`).
+  - T2 two-element audio crossfade (`<audio id=aud-b>`, `blendAudio`/`restAudio`/`ensurePlaying`/`assignElements`).
+  - T3 scrub engine: drag live-drives `pos`; `setPos` seeks morph currentTime (1 seek/rAF), crossfades audio,
+    commits+locks+re-rolls on integer crossings; release holds (no auto-complete); client-side `pickPoolClip`.
+  - T4 wheel + label-tap → `autoScrub` (animate `pos`, land exact, lock); removed dead `advance()`/`playTransition()`.
+  - 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.
+- **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).
+
+### Eyeball round 1 — operator found 2 issues, both FIXED (2 more commits)
+
+- **Fix 1 — landing jitter (frontend).** Landing jump-cut the loop back to frame 0. Each morph reproduces the
+  dst clip's first 3s (`trim=0:3`), ending dst@~3s, so steady-state loop now starts at `LOOP_TAIL_S=3.0` and
+  loops `[3.0, duration]` (`ensureClipMedia` custom loop; disarmed during morph scrub). Morph's last frame hands
+  straight off to the loop. E2E asserts a landed clip loops from ~3s, not 0. No re-bake. (8th E2E test added.)
+- **Fix 2 — red-snapper text card (content).** `reef_snapper` opened with a black NOAA title card (~0.9–2.9s).
+  Re-trimmed `reef_snapper/base.mp4` to drop the first 3.0s (23s→20s, footage clean from 3.0s) and re-baked the
+  7 reef_snapper morph pairs (+reverses, all-intra) from the clean base; verified snapper morph frames text-free.
+- **Verification:** Playwright 7 green · all-intra re-confirmed (93/93 I-frames). Pushed to `session-0026`.
+- **D2 (deferred) — reef_snapper tracked test-label.** The trim shifts the footage, so reef_snapper's one
+  loop-normalized tracked label (`appear 0.0`/`disappear 0.7` + 3-keyframe track) is now slightly misaligned to
+  the subject. It's demo/test material gated behind both knobs up; left as-is — re-author via `/author.html` if
+  the operator wants it pixel-accurate.
+### Eyeball round 2 — 2 more items, both FIXED (2 commits)
+
+- **Fix 3 — morph→loop load jolt (double-buffer).** A pause/jolt when the morph ended and the next altitude's
+  loop loaded: swapping `vid.src` to the base + seeking the tail reloaded the ON-SCREEN element (decode+seek
+  stall). Added a dedicated `#vid-loop` element for the steady-state base loop; during a scrub it is PRELOADED to
+  the clip we're heading toward (`loadLoop`, paused at the tail frame). The paint shader reads the active source
+  (`displayVid() = busy ? vid : loopVid`), so landing is an instant source swap — no reload, no seek. E2E asserts
+  the loop element is armed + playing from ~3s after landing.
+- **Fix 4 — audio on/off → 0–10 level dial.** Replaced the Audio checkbox with a 0–10 range slider = master gain
+  (`audioVol = level/10`), scaling rest volume + the two-track scrub crossfade. First Video-on lifts audio to
+  **3/10** (was full). E2E: range 0–10 default 0; first video-on → 3.
+- **Verification:** Playwright **9 green** · node unit 9 · screenshot-confirmed the dial layout.
+- **D3 residual still applies:** double-buffer kills the LOAD pause both directions; the reverse/turn-back FRAME
+  asymmetry (morph src-start@0 vs loop tail@3s) and the ~loop-wrap seek remain (per-clip loop files would fully
+  resolve if wanted).
+### Eyeball round 3 — audio-off bug (systematic-debugging), FIXED (1 commit)
+
+- **Bug:** audio turned off *sometimes* after landing on a new altitude. **Root cause (code-traced, not guessed):**
+  `fadeVolume` started a `setInterval` ramp that was **never cancelled**. `restAudio` fades the idle element to 0;
+  if within FADE_MS (500ms) that same element becomes the newly-landed ACTIVE scale (`assignElements` reuses one
+  element per soundtrack url), the stale fade-to-0 kept running and dragged the now-active element to silence —
+  hence "only sometimes." **Fix:** `cancelFade(el)` supersedes any in-flight fade when a new fade starts
+  (`fadeVolume`) or a direct volume is set (`ensurePlaying`). Added `window.__hefFade` seam + a deterministic E2E
+  that PROVES it (fails with the fix disabled, passes with it). Playwright **10 green**.
+### Eyeball round 4 — transition speed (1 commit)
+
+- **Request:** slow click/auto transitions ~2x and make them the SAME speed between any two altitudes (2 away =
+  2× as long as 1). `autoScrub` was a fixed 600ms total regardless of distance. Now duration is PROPORTIONAL:
+  `PER_ALTITUDE_MS=1200` (≈2× the old 600) × |distance|, so a label-click/wheel jump of N altitudes takes
+  N×1200ms — constant per-step speed. Manual drag unaffected. E2E asserts a 2-step jump ≈ 2× a 1-step. 11 green.
+- **Resume:** merge + `wgl-session-finalize` on operator go, OR next eyeball round of tweaks.
+
+## Deferred decisions

+_Autonomous-mode low-confidence calls the driver made and would have
+liked operator input on. Appended as the session runs; surfaced at
+finalize. Empty if none._
+
+- **D1 (plan) — canonical segment morph file.** The spec's component 2 says resolve the
+  directed morph via `morphByPair["<fromClip>→<toClip>"]`, but its turn-back decision says
+  "scrubs the SAME morph in reverse" with full reversibility. These are only mutually
+  consistent if a segment uses ONE file scrubbed bidirectionally. I locked the plan to:
+  per segment `[lo, lo+1]`, always use the **descend/forward** morph
+  `morphByPair["<clip@lo>→<clip@lo+1>"]` and drive `currentTime = frac × duration` in both
+  travel directions; the `.rev` files become unused by the scrub interaction (kept baked
+  for back-compat). This means the old E2E "zoom-out plays a `.rev`" assertion is replaced
+  by a "turn-back seeks the same file backward" assertion. Low-confidence on whether the
+  operator specifically wanted `.rev` retained in the drag path.
+- **D2 — reef_snapper tracked test-label misalignment after the text-card trim.** Trimming the snapper base by
+  3.0s (to remove the title card) shifts the footage, so reef_snapper's one loop-normalized tracked label
+  (`appear 0.0`/`disappear 0.7` + a 3-keyframe track) no longer follows the same subject. Left as-is: it's
+  demo/test authoring gated behind both knobs up; re-author via `/author.html` if pixel-accuracy is wanted.
+- **D3 — landing-jitter fix approach.** Chose a frontend loop-from-tail (`LOOP_TAIL_S=3.0`, custom
+  `[3.0, duration]` loop) over re-baking morphs or baking dedicated loop clips — cheap, no media churn,
+  eye-tweakable. Residual: a one-seek hitch at each loop wrap (~every 17–20s) and scrub-START (vs landing) is
+  not made seamless (a looping clip is at arbitrary phase when a drag begins). If the wrap hitch bothers the
+  operator, bake per-clip loop files (`base[3:end]`) for native seamless looping.

+# Simulator E2E (Playwright)
+
+Browser end-to-end tests for the Human Experience Filter simulator. The §9
+pipeline requires an E2E browser tier for any UI surface; this is that tier.
+
+## What it covers
+
+`tests/altitude-lock.spec.ts` drives the real simulator and asserts the
+altitude-morph behavior:
+
+- Zooming to a new altitude plays the morph that **matches the clip it lands on**
+  (forward zoom-in, and `.rev` zoom-out).
+- After landing, the clip is **locked** — it does not change while parked (no
+  secondary swap, no re-roll).
+
+The played morph paths are read from `window.__hefMorphs` (a diagnostic array
+populated by `advance()` in `static/app.js`), which is reliable even when a morph
+is served from the in-memory blob cache. The locked clip is read from the
+Dev-Mode `#scale-name` readout.
+
+## Running
+
+Prerequisites: the project Python venv on PATH (the Playwright `webServer` boots
+`uvicorn simulator.app:app` from the repo root), Node, and the Chromium browser.
+
+```bash
+# from this directory (simulator/e2e)
+npm install
+npx playwright install chromium
+npm test
+```
+
+`playwright.config.ts` starts uvicorn on port 8099 automatically (`reuseExistingServer`
+locally) and points the tests at it.

+## [Documentation](https://playwright.dev) | [API reference](https://playwright.dev/docs/api/class-playwright)
+
+Playwright is a framework for web automation and testing. It drives Chromium, Firefox, and WebKit with a single API — in your tests, in your scripts, and as a tool for AI agents.
+
+## Get Started
+
+Choose the path that fits your workflow:
+
+| | Best for | Install |
+|---|---|---|
+| **[Playwright Test](#playwright-test)** | End-to-end testing | `npm init playwright@latest` |
+| **[Playwright CLI](#playwright-cli)** | Coding agents (Claude Code, Copilot) | `npm i -g @playwright/cli@latest` |
+| **[Playwright MCP](#playwright-mcp)** | AI agents and LLM-driven automation | `npx @playwright/mcp@latest` |
+| **[Playwright Library](#playwright-library)** | Browser automation scripts | `npm i playwright` |
+| **[VS Code Extension](#vs-code-extension)** | Test authoring and debugging in VS Code | [Install from Marketplace](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ms-playwright.playwright) |
+
+---
+
+## Playwright Test
+
+Playwright Test is a full-featured test runner built for end-to-end testing. It runs tests across Chromium, Firefox, and WebKit with full browser isolation, auto-waiting, and web-first assertions.
+
+### Install
+
+```bash
+npm init playwright@latest
+```
+
+Or add manually:
+
+```bash
+npm i -D @playwright/test
+npx playwright install
+```
+
+### Write a test
+
+```TypeScript
+import { test, expect } from '@playwright/test';
+
+test('has title', async ({ page }) => {
+  await page.goto('https://playwright.dev/');
+  await expect(page).toHaveTitle(/Playwright/);
+});
+
+test('get started link', async ({ page }) => {
+  await page.goto('https://playwright.dev/');
+  await page.getByRole('link', { name: 'Get started' }).click();
+  await expect(page.getByRole('heading', { name: 'Installation' })).toBeVisible();
+});
+```
+
+### Run tests
+
+```bash
+npx playwright test
+```
+
+Tests run in parallel across all configured browsers, in headless mode by default. Each test gets a fresh browser context — full isolation with near-zero overhead.
+
+### Key capabilities
+
+**Auto-wait and web-first assertions.** No artificial timeouts. Playwright waits for elements to be actionable, and assertions automatically retry until conditions are met.
+
+**Locators.** Find elements with resilient locators that mirror how users see the page:
+
+```TypeScript
+page.getByRole('button', { name: 'Submit' })
+page.getByLabel('Email')
+page.getByPlaceholder('Search...')
+page.getByTestId('login-form')
+```
+
+**Test isolation.** Each test runs in its own browser context — equivalent to a fresh browser profile. Save authentication state once and reuse it across tests:
+
+```TypeScript
+// Save state after login
+await page.context().storageState({ path: 'auth.json' });
+
+// Reuse in other tests
+test.use({ storageState: 'auth.json' });
+```
+
+**Tracing.** Capture execution traces, screenshots, and videos on failure. Inspect every action, DOM snapshot, network request, and console message in the [Trace Viewer](https://playwright.dev/docs/trace-viewer):
+
+```TypeScript
+// playwright.config.ts
+export default defineConfig({
+  use: {
+    trace: 'on-first-retry',
+  },
+});
+```
+
+```bash
+npx playwright show-trace trace.zip
+```
+
+<!-- TODO: screenshot of trace viewer -->
+
+**Parallelism.** Tests run in parallel by default across all configured browsers.
+
+[Full testing documentation](https://playwright.dev/docs/intro)
+

+
+## Playwright CLI
+
+[Playwright CLI](https://github.com/microsoft/playwright-cli) is a command-line interface for browser automation designed for coding agents. It's more token-efficient than MCP — commands avoid loading large tool schemas and accessibility trees into the model context.
+
+### Install
+
+```bash
+npm install -g @playwright/cli@latest
+```
+
+Optionally install skills for richer agent integration:
+
+```bash
+playwright-cli install --skills
+```
+
+### Usage
+
+Point your coding agent at a task:
+
+```
+Test the "add todo" flow on https://demo.playwright.dev/todomvc using playwright-cli.
+Take screenshots for all successful and failing scenarios.
+```
+
+Or run commands directly:
+
+```bash
+playwright-cli open https://demo.playwright.dev/todomvc/ --headed
+playwright-cli type "Buy groceries"
+playwright-cli press Enter
+playwright-cli screenshot
+```
+
+### Session monitoring
+
+Use `playwright-cli show` to open a visual dashboard with live screencast previews of all running browser sessions. Click any session to zoom in and take remote control.
+
+```bash
+playwright-cli show
+```
+
+<!-- TODO: screenshot of playwright-cli show dashboard -->
+
+[Full CLI documentation](https://playwright.dev/agent-cli/introduction) | [GitHub](https://github.com/microsoft/playwright-cli)
+
+---
+
+## Playwright MCP
+
+The [Playwright MCP server](https://github.com/microsoft/playwright-mcp) gives AI agents full browser control through the [Model Context Protocol](https://modelcontextprotocol.io). Agents interact with pages using structured accessibility snapshots — no vision models or screenshots required.
+
+### Setup
+
+Add to your MCP client (VS Code, Cursor, Claude Desktop, Windsurf, etc.):
+
+```json
+{
+  "mcpServers": {
+    "playwright": {
+      "command": "npx",
+      "args": ["@playwright/mcp@latest"]
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**One-click install for VS Code:**
+
+[<img src="https://img.shields.io/badge/VS_Code-VS_Code?style=flat-square&label=Install%20MCP%20Server&color=0098FF" alt="Install in VS Code" />](https://insiders.vscode.dev/redirect?url=vscode%3Amcp%2Finstall%3F%257B%2522name%2522%253A%2522playwright%2522%252C%2522command%2522%253A%2522npx%2522%252C%2522args%2522%253A%255B%2522%2540playwright%252Fmcp%2540latest%2522%255D%257D)
+
+**For Claude Code:**
+
+```bash
+claude mcp add playwright npx @playwright/mcp@latest
+```
+
+### How it works
+
+Ask your AI assistant to interact with any web page:
+
+```
+Navigate to https://demo.playwright.dev/todomvc and add a few todo items.
+```
+
+The agent sees the page as a structured accessibility tree:
+
+```
+- heading "todos" [level=1]
+- textbox "What needs to be done?" [ref=e5]
+- listitem:
+  - checkbox "Toggle Todo" [ref=e10]
+  - text: "Buy groceries"
+```
+
+It uses element refs like `e5` and `e10` to click, type, and interact — deterministically and without visual ambiguity. Tools cover navigation, form filling, screenshots, network mocking, storage management, and more.
+

+

+
+## Playwright Library
+
+Use `playwright` as a library for browser automation scripts — web scraping, PDF generation, screenshot capture, and any workflow that needs programmatic browser control without a test runner.
+
+### Install
+
+```bash
+npm i playwright
+```
+
+### Examples
+
+**Take a screenshot:**
+
+```TypeScript
+import { chromium } from 'playwright';
+
+const browser = await chromium.launch();
+const page = await browser.newPage();
+await page.goto('https://playwright.dev/');
+await page.screenshot({ path: 'screenshot.png' });
+await browser.close();
+```
+
+**Generate a PDF:**
+
+```TypeScript
+import { chromium } from 'playwright';
+
+const browser = await chromium.launch();
+const page = await browser.newPage();
+await page.goto('https://playwright.dev/');
+await page.pdf({ path: 'page.pdf', format: 'A4' });
+await browser.close();
+```
+
+**Emulate a mobile device:**
+
+```TypeScript
+import { chromium, devices } from 'playwright';
+
+const browser = await chromium.launch();
+const context = await browser.newContext(devices['iPhone 15']);
+const page = await context.newPage();
+await page.goto('https://playwright.dev/');
+await page.screenshot({ path: 'mobile.png' });
+await browser.close();
+```
+
+**Intercept network requests:**
+
+```TypeScript
+import { chromium } from 'playwright';
+
+const browser = await chromium.launch();
+const page = await browser.newPage();
+await page.route('**/*.{png,jpg,jpeg}', route => route.abort());
+await page.goto('https://playwright.dev/');
+await browser.close();
+```
+

+
+## VS Code Extension
+
+The [Playwright VS Code extension](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ms-playwright.playwright) brings test running, debugging, and code generation directly into your editor.
+
+<!-- TODO: hero screenshot of VS Code with Playwright sidebar -->
+
+**Run and debug tests** from the editor with a single click. Set breakpoints, inspect variables, and step through test execution with a live browser view.
+
+**Generate tests with CodeGen.** Click "Record new" to open a browser — navigate and interact with your app while Playwright writes the test code for you.
+
+**Pick locators.** Hover over any element in the browser to see the best available locator, then click to copy it to your clipboard.
+
+**Trace Viewer integration.** Enable "Show Trace Viewer" in the sidebar to get a full execution trace after each test run — DOM snapshots, network requests, console logs, and screenshots at every step.
+
+[Install the extension](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ms-playwright.playwright) | [VS Code guide](https://playwright.dev/docs/getting-started-vscode)

+      or a Contribution incorporated within the Work constitutes direct
+      or contributory patent infringement, then any patent licenses
+      granted to You under this License for that Work shall terminate
+      as of the date such litigation is filed.

+          attribution notices from the Source form of the Work,
+          excluding those notices that do not pertain to any part of
+          the Derivative Works; and
+
+      (d) If the Work includes a "NOTICE" text file as part of its
+          distribution, then any Derivative Works that You distribute must
+          include a readable copy of the attribution notices contained
+          within such NOTICE file, excluding those notices that do not
+          pertain to any part of the Derivative Works, in at least one
+          of the following places: within a NOTICE text file distributed
+          as part of the Derivative Works; within the Source form or
+          documentation, if provided along with the Derivative Works; or,
+          within a display generated by the Derivative Works, if and
+          wherever such third-party notices normally appear. The contents
+          of the NOTICE file are for informational purposes only and
+          do not modify the License. You may add Your own attribution
+          notices within Derivative Works that You distribute, alongside
+          or as an addendum to the NOTICE text from the Work, provided
+          that such additional attribution notices cannot be construed
+          as modifying the License.
+
+      You may add Your own copyright statement to Your modifications and

+# hide a single element highlight, or all page highlights when no target is given
+playwright-cli highlight e5 --hide
+playwright-cli highlight --hide
+```
+
+## Raw output
+
+The global `--raw` option strips page status, generated code, and snapshot sections from the output, returning only the result value. Use it to pipe command output into other tools. Commands that don't produce output return nothing.
+
+```bash
+playwright-cli --raw eval "JSON.stringify(performance.timing)" | jq '.loadEventEnd - .navigationStart'
+playwright-cli --raw eval "JSON.stringify([...document.querySelectorAll('a')].map(a => a.href))" > links.json
+playwright-cli --raw snapshot > before.yml
+playwright-cli click e5
+playwright-cli --raw snapshot > after.yml
+diff before.yml after.yml
+TOKEN=$(playwright-cli --raw cookie-get session_id)
+playwright-cli --raw localstorage-get theme
+```
+
+For structured output wrapping every reply as JSON, pass --json
+```bash
+playwright-cli list --json
+```
+
+## Open parameters
+```bash
+# Use specific browser when creating session
+playwright-cli open --browser=chrome
+playwright-cli open --browser=firefox
+playwright-cli open --browser=webkit
+playwright-cli open --browser=msedge
+
+# Use persistent profile (by default profile is in-memory)
+playwright-cli open --persistent
+# Use persistent profile with custom directory
+playwright-cli open --profile=/path/to/profile
+
+# Connect to browser via Playwright Extension
+playwright-cli attach --extension=chrome
+
+# Connect to a running Chrome or Edge by channel name
+playwright-cli attach --cdp=chrome
+playwright-cli attach --cdp=msedge
+
+# Connect to a running browser via CDP endpoint
+playwright-cli attach --cdp=http://localhost:9222
+
+# Start with config file
+playwright-cli open --config=my-config.json
+
+# Close the browser
+playwright-cli close
+# Detach from an attached browser (leaves the external browser running)
+playwright-cli -s=msedge detach
+# Delete user data for the default session
+playwright-cli delete-data
+```
+
+## URLs with `&` on Windows
+
+On Windows, `cmd.exe` and PowerShell treat `&` as a command separator, so URLs with multiple query parameters get truncated before `playwright-cli` runs. Escape `&` with `^&` in `cmd.exe`, or use `--%` in PowerShell:
+
+```batch
+playwright-cli goto "https://example.com/?a=1^&b=2"
+```
+
+```powershell
+playwright-cli --% goto "https://example.com/?a=1&b=2"
+```
+
+## Snapshots
+
+After each command, playwright-cli provides a snapshot of the current browser state.
+
+```bash
+> playwright-cli goto https://example.com
+### Page
+- Page URL: https://example.com/
+- Page Title: Example Domain
+### Snapshot
+[Snapshot](.playwright-cli/page-2026-02-14T19-22-42-679Z.yml)
+```
+
+You can also take a snapshot on demand using `playwright-cli snapshot` command. All the options below can be combined as needed.
+
+```bash
+# default - save to a file with timestamp-based name
+playwright-cli snapshot
+
+# save to file, use when snapshot is a part of the workflow result
+playwright-cli snapshot --filename=after-click.yaml
+
+# snapshot an element instead of the whole page
+playwright-cli snapshot "#main"
+
+# limit snapshot depth for efficiency, take a partial snapshot afterwards
+playwright-cli snapshot --depth=4
+playwright-cli snapshot e34
+
+# include each element's bounding box as [box=x,y,width,height]
+playwright-cli snapshot --boxes
+```
+
+## Targeting elements
+
+By default, use refs from the snapshot to interact with page elements.
+
+```bash
+# get snapshot with refs
+playwright-cli snapshot
+
+# interact using a ref
+playwright-cli click e15
+```
+
+You can also use css selectors or Playwright locators.
+
+```bash
+# css selector
+playwright-cli click "#main > button.submit"
+
+# role locator
+playwright-cli click "getByRole('button', { name: 'Submit' })"
+
+# test id
+playwright-cli click "getByTestId('submit-button')"
+```
+
+## Browser Sessions
+
+```bash
+# create new browser session named "mysession" with persistent profile
+playwright-cli -s=mysession open example.com --persistent
+# same with manually specified profile directory (use when requested explicitly)
+playwright-cli -s=mysession open example.com --profile=/path/to/profile
+playwright-cli -s=mysession click e6
+playwright-cli -s=mysession close  # stop a named browser
+playwright-cli -s=mysession delete-data  # delete user data for persistent session
+
+playwright-cli list
+# Close all browsers
+playwright-cli close-all
+# Forcefully kill all browser processes
+playwright-cli kill-all
+```
+
+## Installation
+
+If global `playwright-cli` command is not available, try a local version via `npx playwright-cli`:
+
+```bash
+npx --no-install playwright-cli --version
+```
+
+When local version is available, use `npx playwright-cli` in all commands. Otherwise, install `playwright-cli` as a global command:
+
+```bash
+npm install -g @playwright/cli@latest
+```
+
+## Example: Form submission
+
+```bash
+playwright-cli open https://example.com/form
+playwright-cli snapshot
+
+playwright-cli fill e1 "user@example.com"
+playwright-cli fill e2 "password123"
+playwright-cli click e3
+playwright-cli snapshot
+playwright-cli close
+```
+
+## Example: Multi-tab workflow
+
+```bash
+playwright-cli open https://example.com
+playwright-cli tab-new https://example.com/other
+playwright-cli tab-list
+playwright-cli tab-select 0
+playwright-cli snapshot
+playwright-cli close
+```
+
+## Example: Debugging with DevTools
+
+```bash
+playwright-cli open https://example.com
+playwright-cli click e4
+playwright-cli fill e7 "test"
+playwright-cli console
+playwright-cli requests
+playwright-cli close
+```
+
+```bash
+playwright-cli open https://example.com
+playwright-cli tracing-start
+playwright-cli click e4
+playwright-cli fill e7 "test"
+playwright-cli tracing-stop
+playwright-cli close
+```
+
+## Example: Interactive session
+
+Ask the user for UI review or design feedback. The user draws boxes on the live page and types comments; you receive the annotated screenshot, the snapshot of the marked region, and the user's notes. Use this whenever the user asks for "UI review", "design feedback", or to "ask the user what they think / want / mean":
+
+```bash
+playwright-cli open https://example.com
+playwright-cli show --annotate
+```

+# Inspecting Element Attributes
+
+When the snapshot doesn't show an element's `id`, `class`, `data-*` attributes, or other DOM properties, use `eval` to inspect them.
+
+## Examples
+
+```bash
+playwright-cli snapshot
+# snapshot shows a button as e7 but doesn't reveal its id or data attributes
+
+# get the element's id
+playwright-cli eval "el => el.id" e7
+
+# get all CSS classes
+playwright-cli eval "el => el.className" e7
+
+# get a specific attribute
+playwright-cli eval "el => el.getAttribute('data-testid')" e7
+playwright-cli eval "el => el.getAttribute('aria-label')" e7
+
+# get a computed style property
+playwright-cli eval "el => getComputedStyle(el).display" e7

+# Running Playwright Tests
+
+To run Playwright tests, use the `npx playwright test` command, or a package manager script. To avoid opening the interactive html report, use `PLAYWRIGHT_HTML_OPEN=never` environment variable.
+
+```bash
+# Run all tests
+PLAYWRIGHT_HTML_OPEN=never npx playwright test
+
+# Run all tests through a custom npm script
+PLAYWRIGHT_HTML_OPEN=never npm run special-test-command
+```
+
+# Debugging Playwright Tests
+
+To debug a failing Playwright test, run it with `--debug=cli` option. This command will pause the test at the start and print the debugging instructions.
+
+**IMPORTANT**: run the command in the background and check the output until "Debugging Instructions" is printed. Make sure to stop the command after you have finished.
+
+Once instructions containing a session name are printed, use `playwright-cli` to attach the session and explore the page.
+
+```bash
+# Run the test
+PLAYWRIGHT_HTML_OPEN=never npx playwright test --debug=cli
+# ...
+# ... debugging instructions for "tw-abcdef" session ...
+# ...
+
+# Attach to the test
+playwright-cli attach tw-abcdef
+```
+
+Keep the test running in the background while you explore and look for a fix.
+The test is paused at the start, so you should step over or pause at a particular location
+where the problem is most likely to be.
+
+Every action you perform with `playwright-cli` generates corresponding Playwright TypeScript code.
+This code appears in the output and can be copied directly into the test. Most of the time, a specific locator or an expectation should be updated, but it could also be a bug in the app. Use your judgement.
+
+After fixing the test, stop the background test run. Rerun to check that test passes.

+# Request Mocking
+
+Intercept, mock, modify, and block network requests.
+
+## CLI Route Commands
+
+```bash
+# Mock with custom status
+playwright-cli route "**/*.jpg" --status=404
+
+# Mock with JSON body
+playwright-cli route "**/api/users" --body='[{"id":1,"name":"Alice"}]' --content-type=application/json
+
+# Mock with custom headers
+playwright-cli route "**/api/data" --body='{"ok":true}' --header="X-Custom: value"
+
+# Remove headers from requests
+playwright-cli route "**/*" --remove-header=cookie,authorization
+
+# List active routes
+playwright-cli route-list
+
+# Remove a route or all routes
+playwright-cli unroute "**/*.jpg"
+playwright-cli unroute
+```
+
+## URL Patterns
+
+```
+**/api/users           - Exact path match
+**/api/*/details       - Wildcard in path
+**/*.{png,jpg,jpeg}    - Match file extensions
+**/search?q=*          - Match query parameters
+```
+
+## Advanced Mocking with run-code
+
+For conditional responses, request body inspection, response modification, or delays:
+
+### Conditional Response Based on Request
+
+```bash
+playwright-cli run-code "async page => {
+  await page.route('**/api/login', route => {
+    const body = route.request().postDataJSON();
+    if (body.username === 'admin') {
+      route.fulfill({ body: JSON.stringify({ token: 'mock-token' }) });
+    } else {
+      route.fulfill({ status: 401, body: JSON.stringify({ error: 'Invalid' }) });
+    }
+  });
+}"
+```
+
+### Modify Real Response
+
+```bash
+playwright-cli run-code "async page => {
+  await page.route('**/api/user', async route => {
+    const response = await route.fetch();
+    const json = await response.json();
+    json.isPremium = true;
+    await route.fulfill({ response, json });
+  });
+}"
+```
+
+### Simulate Network Failures
+
+```bash
+playwright-cli run-code "async page => {
+  await page.route('**/api/offline', route => route.abort('internetdisconnected'));
+}"
+# Options: connectionrefused, timedout, connectionreset, internetdisconnected
+```
+
+### Delayed Response
+
+```bash
+playwright-cli run-code "async page => {
+  await page.route('**/api/slow', async route => {
+    await new Promise(r => setTimeout(r, 3000));
+    route.fulfill({ body: JSON.stringify({ data: 'loaded' }) });
+  });

+# Running Custom Playwright Code
+
+Use `run-code` to execute arbitrary Playwright code for advanced scenarios not covered by CLI commands.
+
+## Syntax
+
+```bash
+playwright-cli run-code "async page => {
+  // Your Playwright code here
+  // Access page.context() for browser context operations
+}"
+```
+
+You can also load the function from a file:
+
+```bash
+playwright-cli run-code --filename=./my-script.js
+```
+
+
+The code must be a single function expression, it is wrapped in `(...)` and evaluated.
+import/export/require syntax is not supported.
+
+## Geolocation
+
+```bash
+# Grant geolocation permission and set location
+playwright-cli run-code "async page => {
+  await page.context().grantPermissions(['geolocation']);
+  await page.context().setGeolocation({ latitude: 37.7749, longitude: -122.4194 });
+}"
+
+# Set location to London
+playwright-cli run-code "async page => {
+  await page.context().grantPermissions(['geolocation']);
+  await page.context().setGeolocation({ latitude: 51.5074, longitude: -0.1278 });
+}"
+
+# Clear geolocation override
+playwright-cli run-code "async page => {
+  await page.context().clearPermissions();
+}"
+```
+
+## Permissions
+
+```bash
+# Grant multiple permissions
+playwright-cli run-code "async page => {
+  await page.context().grantPermissions([
+    'geolocation',
+    'notifications',
+    'camera',
+    'microphone'
+  ]);
+}"
+
+# Grant permissions for specific origin
+playwright-cli run-code "async page => {
+  await page.context().grantPermissions(['clipboard-read'], {
+    origin: 'https://example.com'
+  });
+}"
+```
+
+## Media Emulation
+
+```bash
+# Emulate dark color scheme
+playwright-cli run-code "async page => {
+  await page.emulateMedia({ colorScheme: 'dark' });
+}"
+
+# Emulate light color scheme
+playwright-cli run-code "async page => {
+  await page.emulateMedia({ colorScheme: 'light' });
+}"
+
+# Emulate reduced motion
+playwright-cli run-code "async page => {
+  await page.emulateMedia({ reducedMotion: 'reduce' });
+}"
+
+# Emulate print media
+playwright-cli run-code "async page => {
+  await page.emulateMedia({ media: 'print' });
+}"
+```
+
+## Wait Strategies
+
+```bash
+# Wait for network idle
+playwright-cli run-code "async page => {
+  await page.waitForLoadState('networkidle');
+}"
+
+# Wait for specific element
+playwright-cli run-code "async page => {
+  await page.locator('.loading').waitFor({ state: 'hidden' });
+}"
+
+# Wait for function to return true
+playwright-cli run-code "async page => {
+  await page.waitForFunction(() => window.appReady === true);
+}"
+
