autoCutPlan()/autoCut(): given a beat grid and 2+ cameras, place camera cuts
on grid downbeats at a chosen bar cadence, cycling cameras so the same angle
never lands twice running, with a phase offset so a from-the-playhead run
doesn't open on the camera already live. Cut times come straight out of
gridTimes('bar') so a placed t IS a downbeat rather than a rounded neighbour.
Applied inside group() = one undo; refusals throw rather than half-apply.
UI: a scissors popover with cadence, range, per-camera checkboxes and a live
count that is literally the plan (previewed count == applied count).
FILM panel gains 'align to beat': snaps every shot's in/out to the nearest
downbeat, never reorders, clamps inside the scene, returns collapsing shots
untouched with a skipped list, and always names which grid it used.
Verified on scenes/music-video: 4 cuts at exact downbeats 3.749s apart
(2 bars at 128.02 BPM), cam2->cam3->cam4->cam1, one undo restores exactly.

Beat grid consumed from Lane C's /beats: one top-level scene.beatGrid (beats
kept in FILE seconds, effective offset re-derived from the audio clip so
dragging the audio drags the grid and head-trim leaves it put). beat and bar
join the snap selector, so keys, clip and audio blocks, both trim edges, cuts
and the playhead all became musical for free. Grid drawn faint on beats and
brighter on downbeats, suppressed below ~7px spacing. Low confidence still
snaps but says so. Tempo extrapolates past the analysed range.
FILM panel mounts inside #timeline: sequence CRUD, editable shot rows (scene
dropdown, in/out, cut|dissolve + seconds, reorder, delete), live runtime, size
picker, and Render film with per-shot/per-frame progress - gated behind
hasContent() + a confirm that says plainly every shot replaces the open scene,
and locked while running so it cannot be started twice. film.js imported
lazily so its absence cannot stop the timeline mounting.
Verified live: grid 128.02 BPM/35 beats off house128.wav, snapped positions
8-10ms from the true 0.468735s grid across the whole file, bar snap hits a
downbeat, grid survives toJSON->load; FILM lists both sequences with the
server's 11.50s runtime and 3 editable rows.

Lane B: New... in the scene bar fetches the templates API and applies through
a new single apply path (applyScene = stage.applyState + load + preload, now
shared with Load), confirm-before-clobber via hasContent(), thumbs, toasts on
failure. ? overlay documents 24 real bindings read out of the code across
STAGE/TIMELINE/SCENE BAR, ignores ? while typing. Audio head-trim (left edge
eats into the source, one grouped undo). applyScene strips the template key so
saved scenes stay plain scene JSON.
Orchestrator SYNC-9 fix: help overlay dt column was auto-width + nowrap, so
long terms overflowed and the three columns overlapped visually.
Verified live: picker lists 3 (2 thumbs), no confirm when empty / confirms when
dirty, loads 7 entities + 2 cuts with bar refresh, no template key in toJSON,
overlay opens on ? and Escape closes, no hijack while typing. 5 suites green.

- PLAN §5 M5: shot sizes/angles/focals/light presets/blocking marks as
one-click deterministic presets (grammar.js data + presets.js solver,
Lane A), keyed at the playhead via scenegod:direct events (Lane B),
optional NL box -> POST /director -> tailnet Ollama with server-side op
validation (Lane C; m4pro serves qwen2.5:7b)
- rhubarb 1.14.0 built from John's source zip (JING5), installed arm64 at
~/.local/opt/rhubarb, symlinked /opt/homebrew/bin; happy path verified:
/rhubarb on a real spoken wav (assets/audio/test/vo.wav) returns mouthCues
- lane B unlocked to wire the lip-sync-from-audio button now

- stage.js detectVisemes: NONMOUTH blocklist + side-stripped matching —
/(^|_)l($|_)/ was swallowing every ARKit left-side morph (eyeblink_l,
browdown_l), so setMorph('L') would blink the eye; self-check hardened to
assert group contents (L === tongue only, smile lands on E)
- CLAUDE.md: lanes stage own files explicitly, never git add -A (laneB's
attribution finding)
- README.md: run + feature summary; lane files: session 4 accepted for all,
v1 declared complete, optional backlog recorded
Verified: node + 9 server test groups green, /rhubarb 503 gate live,
audio lane (tone.wav block, gain) + cut markers + sun keys on screen,
zero console errors.

- stage.js: applyState no longer skips camera/light entities (source
'upload' but no bytes needed) — loaded scenes were silently losing the
directing rig; PLAN schema adds source.type 'none' for the clean fix
- lane files: A session-3 + C M4 accepted; A→absorb hotfix + viseme lane
(M4-A), B→audio rows + Web Audio sync + morphs track (M4-B), C complete
Verified: 6/6 entities restored on scene load, PiP 178x99 capped+visible,
lady 26/26 textured, audio-muxed render h264+aac 8.000s both streams,
graft_limb --selftest green under Blender 5.0.1, node+server suites green.

- timeline.js: _mirror — Timeline subscribes stage.onChange, upserts/removes
live stage entities into scene.entities (closes the dock-added-entity gap
both lanes flagged; keyframing now works without a scene load)
- lane files: M2/M3 accepted for all lanes; A→PiP sizing + lady.glb material
polish, B→absorb _mirror + test + setDuration mutator, C→M4 (audio mux,
graft_limb, MB proxy)
SYNC 2: lady+man+street+2cams+sunset built via live dock path, all
frame-exact (probes in transcript). SYNC 3: finalRender → 240 frames
1920x1080 → ffmpeg h264 8.000s, cuts + sunset verified in extracted frames.
