Dropping footage on the stage or the timeline asks which frames and what name:
a dialog plays the video with start and end handles that seek it. Detection
runs on that range only (decoding stops at the end, frames before the start
are skipped) and the range is part of the analysis address, so a partial
analysis is never served as a whole one. The frozen take comes in as one
named symbol, carrying its sound as an audio node, placed where it was
dropped; tracking and tuning come with it when the document has no analysis
of its own.
clip/adopt copies symbols between documents, renaming ids that collide, and
clip/audio-tracks carries sounds out of nested instances so a placed symbol
is heard where it is placed.
Fixes the stage going blank after a conversion: ::store recomputed only when
the clip id changed, so blocks merged into the loaded entry were invisible to
the resolver. And the paint loop now schedules its next frame before
painting and reports a frame it cannot draw instead of stopping.

The stylesheet and bundle were served with Last-Modified only, so a browser
could pair new JavaScript with a stale app.css and render the tab strip and
thumbnails unstyled. Their URLs now carry the file's mtime. Tabs are flat on
the chrome with the open one underlined; the close button shows on hover.

A symbol dragged out of the pool shows where it would land: on the stage, a
dashed outline of its first frame centred on the pointer, and on the timeline
a preview row of its own length. A stage drop places it at the playhead under
the pointer; a timeline drop places it at the frame under the pointer, in its
own coordinates. A drop that would make a cycle is refused while hovering.
Pool thumbnails are capped at 40x30.

This project lists every symbol in the document and the video it uses or was
given this session, each with a frame from its proxy as a thumbnail. All
assets lists every upload on the server and every other saved project's
symbols, from a new /api/symbols that reads symbol leaf paths. Every row is a
drag source (symbol:, import:, footage:). Uploading no longer runs straight
into detection; it lands in the project's media.

Double-clicking a symbol in the pool, or an instance's row in the timeline,
opens it as a tab above the stage; the stage, the rows, the transport and new
shapes follow the open tab. Each tab gets a clock as long as it is: its own
mixed tracks, the document's audio for the symbol it opens on, or silence.

Step 9. The tier split was the work; Django was the easy half.
Tier 1 — the authored scene — is the document, and it is addressed as
independently versioned leaves rather than saved whole, so one vertex drag
cannot clobber a collaborator's keying. `domain/leaf` is the document as
path -> value; `domain/wire` puts it on the wire as transit, because JSON
has neither integer map keys nor keywords and a save would quietly turn
`{0 v}` into `{"0" v}`.
Tier 2 — the dense channel blocks — is content-addressed by a hash over
every input, with the detector version inside every key through the
analysis the block descriptor names. `flow/address`'s `block-knobs` is the
invalidation table, and `address-test` does not trust it: it re-freezes the
take once per knob and asserts the biconditional, that a block's bytes
changed if and only if its key changed. That found `brow-pos` not depending
on `contour-avg` — the brow ring is smoothed, the raise is not.
Tier 3 — frames and audio — is served by the hash of its bytes out of the
same store. A manifest now names frames and carries a URL for each, so the
frame layout stopped being a shared secret between a shell script and a
ClojureScript namespace, and the `?v=` cache-buster went with it: a blob's
name is the hash of its contents, so a stale copy is not a thing that can
happen. The synthetic take's `audio.wav` moved to `static/arthur/` — an
asset the project owns, not an extraction that churns.
The server verifies rather than trusting a name it was handed: it
recomputes every key from the descriptor stored beside it, refuses an
analysis that declares no detector version, and refuses a document naming
blocks it does not hold. It hashes the descriptor TEXT, because JS prints
an integral double as `1` and Python as `1.0`, and a scheme where both ends
re-render the numbers disagrees on the first parameter that happens to be
whole.
Two loose ends from step 8 closed on the way. `pack` no longer takes a
`(track, frame)` predicate whose call sites each re-derived a feature from
an index — every track names the feature it follows, which deleted five
hand-maintained mappings. And `:dev-http` is gone: Django serves the page,
shadow-cljs only builds into the staticfiles tree.
227 CLJS tests, 31 Django tests, green.
