Your Name b66d189a31 feat: marks-first annotation authoring with proxy synthetic-clips
Invert the authoring flow around a new "proxy" mark-group and rework how
cross-clip selections are modelled, displayed, and edited. See
annotation_flow_plan.md for the chunked plan.

- scene: resolve a ref mark by slicing its target's resolved timeline in
  local frames, so a scattered-source proxy resolves piece-by-piece with the
  same {:ref g :at n} grammar as a clip (proxy = synthetic clip). Add
  make-proxy / roll-proxy / proxy-ref, proxy-aware mark-row/marks->rows, a
  :proxy restore branch, and per-mark lane-bars (distinct abutting marks no
  longer fuse into one bar).
- events/subs/views: selections now create a proxy + one collapsed mark and
  set an active-mark pointer; proxies persist alongside their annotation. A
  two-stage draft form (choosing -> creating): ranges + a single Title
  autocomplete that either associates with an existing annotation
  (transclusion) or creates a new one. Completing a new selection auto-enters
  drawing mode bound to the active mark.

Full test suite green (proxy resolve/roll, collapsed row, restore round-trip,
per-mark bars); app compiles clean.

scene_analysis

  • tl/ — the lumet frontend (ClojureScript / reagent / re-frame). See tl/.
  • Django backend (this folder) — users, admin, and persistence of OTIO + the timeline scene.

Backend

The backend stores one Project per editing session: the uploaded OTIO source file, the playback fps, and the live scene (the {:tracks :groups} mark-group map the frontend keeps in app-db) as a JSON dump.

Run

python -m venv .venv && .venv/bin/pip install -r requirements.txt
.venv/bin/python manage.py migrate
DJANGO_SUPERUSER_PASSWORD=admin .venv/bin/python manage.py createsuperuser --noinput --username admin --email admin@example.com
.venv/bin/python manage.py seed_demo          # demo project from tl/.../one_two_three.otio
.venv/bin/python manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:9001   # 0.0.0.0 so it's reachable over Tailscale/LAN

Admin: http://127.0.0.1:9001/admin/ (admin / admin). Upload OTIO and inspect the scene JSON there.

API (session auth; 401 if not logged in)

Method Path Purpose
GET /api/projects/ the current user's projects
GET /api/projects/<id>/scene/ {fps, scene}
PUT /api/projects/<id>/scene/ replace scene and/or fps (JSON body)
GET /api/projects/<id>/otio/ serve the uploaded OTIO file
GET /api/projects/<id>/revisions/ save history (who / when / summary)

Attribution

Annotations are the authored unit, so that's what's attributed — and the server is the authority (client-sent stamps are ignored, so authorship can't be forged). On each scene PUT the server diffs incoming annotation groups against the stored ones and stamps createdBy/editedBy (+ timestamps) from request.user; it also writes a Revision (user, time, +N ~N −N summary, snapshot of the annotation layer). A project is editable by its owner and any collaborators (managed in the admin), so different users get distinct stamps.

The frontend currently loads /one_two_three.otio and persists annotations to localStorage; pointing it at /api/projects/<id>/otio/ and the scene endpoints is the next wiring step (CORS/credentials needed across the dev ports).
