The module docstrings and the notepad still described one rebuild that
touches everything. Closes the toggle cost, the seeding cost, the
per-save rebuild, the modules/apply rebuild and the Playwright spec that
could not fit a rebuild into its five seconds; files the follow-ups the
refactor leaves behind.

A stopped flow's nodes are built like any other flow's — being stopped
means having no subscriptions, schedules or webhooks, not being absent —
so a toggle only ever needed the lifecycle call and the gate that goes
with it. It was doing a whole-pipeline rebuild instead, which on a
populated installation is every node in every flow reconnecting.

Publishing or deleting a flow now splices that one flow into the running
graph instead of reconnecting every node in the installation, saving a
shared node's source rebuilds the flows using it, and installing modules
rebuilds only the flows holding a node that would not load.
Renaming stays on the full rebuild — it rewrites message references in
every other flow's document — and so does startup, which has no graph to
splice into.

A node's timeout now covers its body only: the pool loads the source into the
worker it picked, off the node's budget, so imports that outlast the timeout no
longer make a node impossible to run. Draft checks compile without caching, so
saving does not evict what a busy node is serving calls from. Requests carry an
id the worker echoes and the pool checks, a reply is encoded once, and the
remote-exception cache is bounded.
DELETE /flows/{name} answers 409 while the flow has a running or queued run,
which is what was letting run_node rows outlive their run.

`FlowStore._git` now passes `-c gc.auto=0`, so `git commit` no longer forks a
background `gc --auto` that reparents onto PID 1 and stays there unreaped. With
auto-gc off nothing packs on its own, so `_commit` runs a foreground `git gc`
every 500 commits — the trigger a long-lived seeding session actually reaches.
`docker/compose.yml` takes the frontend's `VITE_API_URL` build arg from the
environment, keeping `https://api.${DOMAIN}` only as the fallback. `setup.sh`
already derives the scheme from `ENVIRONMENT`, so an `up --build` that does not
layer `compose.local.yml` stops shipping a bundle that calls `https://api.localhost`.

A node's stop() and a supervised task's cancellation are both waited on
inside the rebuild lock, and neither had a deadline: an MQTT client whose
broker never acknowledges the disconnect leaves aiomqtt's __aexit__
waiting forever, so reload() never returned and every start, stop or
publish behind it hung until the container was restarted.
Each node now gets five seconds to close and is abandoned after that, and
cancel_all reports what is still running rather than waiting on it — it
also no longer swallows a cancellation aimed at the caller, which used to
make the lock holder unkillable. A rebuild asked for by a request gives up
on the lock after fifteen seconds with RebuildBusy, answered as a 503.

On a CSS-scaled dashboard panel uPlot reads the pointer in visual pixels
and measures it against its own unscaled plot width. Refining the result
in cursor.move left uPlot's earlier arithmetic wrong: cacheMouse snaps an
offset within 1px of the plot edge to the plot width, and on a panel
scaled up the raw visual offset passes that edge at 1/drawn of the way
across, so the readout stopped advancing partway over the chart and stuck
to the last point.
cursor.bind wraps the three events that carry a position and hands uPlot
a corrected clientX/clientY, so every step after it — the snap, the drag
detection, the redraw path — comes out right by construction. It is also
stateless, which removes the cursor.move memo and the drag.click
workaround that the mousedown/mouseup mismatch needed.
cursor.check.ts now replays uPlot 1.6.32's own pipeline against the
shipped cursor config, for panels scaled both down and up.

Reopened with the actual trigger: the base compose builds the frontend
against https://api.${DOMAIN} and only compose.local.yml overrides it,
so any build without that layer breaks login locally. I closed this
earlier on the mistaken belief a rebuild had settled it.
Every service builds with `context: ..`, and Docker only consults the
.dockerignore at the context root — the copies under frontend/ and backend/
never applied, so the host's dist/, node_modules/ and caches were shipped
into each build context.

Eleven "to be sorted" entries are done. Three that survive are amended
rather than removed: the house panel's chart budget (the range picker
gave its row back), layoutGraph (height is derived now, width is still
guessed), and the dark:-variant scope, which turned out to share a root
with the React Flow colorMode bug. Adds the portal's missing
not-reporting state, and drops the frontend-origin entry the rebuild
settled.
uPlot swallows the click that ends a drag, and decides a drag happened by
comparing the position it took at mousedown against the one it holds at
mouseup. It refines the first through `cursor.move` and re-reads the second
raw, never refining it (`mouseUp` -> `cacheMouse(initial: false)`), so with any
correction in place the two never agree: on a scaled panel every click on a
plot read as a drag and was stopped before it reached the page. A chart tile
could not be selected in the dashboard editor by clicking the chart, and a
Health chart could not be clicked to pin a moment.
Not the cursor correction being applied twice — that was a separate defect,
and idempotence could not have fixed this one, since the mouseup path never
applies the correction at all. Not `cursor.y` either: that only decides
whether the y cursor element is created, and both axes are read from the event
regardless.
Drag-to-zoom goes with it, and loses nothing: `setData` re-ranges the scales
from the data on every render, so a dragged range was erased by the next
reading. With no drag there is no click to protect from one.

A chart that named no palette took the ramp in order, so three lines drew
slots 1, 2 and 3 — adjacent steps of a ramp that carries identity by lightness
alone, which at a 2px stroke read as close to one picture. Each count now
takes the slots furthest apart that the ramp allows: 1 -> 1, 2 -> 1/5,
3 -> 1/3/5, 4 -> 1/2/4/5. Five lines are unchanged.
Moving a default is only safe because the mechanism around it is inert: a
palette a dashboard wrote down is still drawn exactly as written, so no stored
document means anything different than it did. `palette.check.ts` now pins the
spread table and says which of the two properties is permanent.
An unnamed palette is empty rather than the whole ramp, so the settings panel
shows nothing picked when a dashboard is on automatic — and deselecting the
last colour is now the way back to it.

React Flow stamps `colorMode` on its wrapper as a class and defaults it to
`light`. The app's own token scopes are named `.light` / `.dark` — the classes
that let a dashboard be forced to one theme inside a shell on the other — so
every canvas was silently redeclaring the light palette on its own subtree:
white node cards and a white canvas in dark mode, with the inherited
`--foreground` text still near-white and therefore invisible. Home's neurons
had the same fault, drawn with white ring gaps and the light `--primary`.

The comment said the canvas follows the theme without a `colorMode` prop. It
does not — React Flow stamps that prop on the wrapper as a class and defaults
it to `light`, which collided with the app's own `.light` token scope and
re-themed the whole canvas. The prop landed in 4e1898a; this is its reason.

Reserving a slot for all three status controls left 72px for a node's title,
against about 140px before. Only the stop button and the dot come and go on
their own; the traceback button appears when a node newly fails and goes when
someone acknowledges it, which is a thing to notice rather than a flicker. It
goes back in the row, and the title gets 106px.

uPlot writes what `cursor.move` returns back into the value it hands in next
time and calls it again on every redraw — and a chart sets its data on every
render. The correction was therefore applied repeatedly: the cursor walked
left while the pointer stood still, and the position taken at mousedown no
longer matched the one held at mouseup, which uPlot reads as a drag and
answers by swallowing the click. That is what stopped a chart tile being
selectable in the dashboard editor.
The refiner now returns its previous answer unchanged when handed it back, so
a redraw is a no-op. Lifted out of the config as `cursorRefiner` so the branch
can be checked without a browser; `cursor.check.ts` replays uPlot's own
sequences, including the press-is-not-a-drag one that regressed.
The Playwright hover test now also asserts the cursor holds its place across a
redraw, which is what the first version missed.

A dashboard names the data colours its charts draw with: an ordered, distinct
subset of the `--chart-1…5` ramp, stored on the settings channel that already
carries `theme` and `locked`. No backend or client change — `SettingDef.value`
is free-form and a name this build does not wire up is left alone rather than
refused.
Naming none is the whole ramp, which resolves to the identical token per
series as the `--chart-${(index % 5) + 1}` charts drew with before, so every
existing dashboard is unaffected. `palette.check.ts` asserts that equivalence
rather than trusting it.
Distinct slots, not free assignment with repeats: only slot 1 against slot 5
clears 3:1 within the ramp, so two traces on one slot could not be told apart.
Status colour is deliberately outside the palette — a fault is `--destructive`
because of what it means, not because of where it sits.
The provider is mounted by the editor as well as the view, so picking a
palette repaints the charts beside the panel instead of describing them.

- A node's height follows the ports on its busiest side. It is a function of
the document, so `layoutGraph` reserves exactly what is drawn and nothing
measured is fed back into the layout.
- The three status controls now sit in slots that are there whether the
control is or not. A node running many times a second mounted and unmounted
the stop button on every execution, resizing the card each time.
- A port bound to another flow's message is drawn as a label, naming the node
at the far end and its type. Only the opposite direction was answered
before. The scan behind both is now cached on the store's commit counter
rather than reading every flow per request.

A dashboard canvas is CSS-scaled to fit its panel while uPlot maps the
pointer against its own unscaled plot width, so the cursor drifted further
right the further into a chart it went. A `cursor.move` refiner divides the
visual offset back into layout pixels; unscaled hosts get a no-op.
A querying chart's range picker moves onto the frame's title line through a
new `useHeaderSlot`, giving the plot back the row it spent. The editor's drag
handle is the header, so the picker is exempted from it.
Charts can be drawn as a monotone cubic spline — uPlot's own path builder,
monotone so a smoothed line never invents a reading between two real ones.

`--xy-connectionline-stroke` was never set, so the line dragged between two

--brain-decay 90s -> 150s and the wire floor 32% -> 16%, so a quiet
connection dims further and takes longer doing it. The pulse ring's inset
and band become custom properties (defaults unchanged for the editor's
card), and the neuron passes its own ring and gap so the arc runs the full
width of the gap; it moves after the disc, which otherwise paints over it.

`flow.css` set `--xy-background-pattern-dots-color`, which nothing reads:
xyflow's `.react-flow__background-pattern.dots` reads
`--xy-background-pattern-color` and only falls back to the `-dots-color-default`
literal. The grid was therefore pinned to `#91919a` in both themes — and with no
`colorMode` prop the `.react-flow.dark` default never applies either, so it read
as a light-mode grid on a dark canvas.

Both screens the house is looked at on are 1280x800, so that is what the three
dashboards are laid out for: twelve columns of 96px, twelve rows of 51px, and
nothing past the bottom, because a panel does not scroll.
The motors are one control each instead of three buttons. A button could only
publish; a segmented control reads back as well — so the motor writes what it
is doing to the same message the control sets, and the segment that is held is
the direction it actually went. Up, Stop, Down for the shutters; Close/Open for
the window and In/Out for the awning, which is what those two are for.
A run stopped part way now leaves the position unknown rather than claiming the
target it never reached, so the next command in either direction moves it.
The preflight gained the two checks this needed. One runs each sample shape
past the port that would receive it. The other is arithmetic: every tile inside
the panel and none on top of another — both silent failures on a screen with no
scrollbar, and both caught before anything is written.
Sizes were settled by looking. A slider needs three rows or its tick labels
fall off; a status icon needs three or it loses the word under the glyph; a
gauge in two rows has no arc worth reading, so the battery is a bar on Home and
a gauge on Energy where there is height for one. A chart spends eighty pixels
on its chrome whatever it is given, so two of them read on this panel and three
did not — the temperature history is the one that went, and `history` still
answers for it.
`capture-panels.mjs` is how that was checked: the three panels at the screen's
own pixels, in both themes, reporting whether anything spilled.

Two things the installation found that the checks did not.
A script with three `from()` statements in it produces three results all
called `_result`, and InfluxDB refuses that outright — so the measurements go
into one filter and the rows come back tagged with which one they are.
And the answer a database node hands back holds a *list* of rows, which a
record may not: a record is flat scalars. It was declared one, so every chart
failed on the type check the moment a real answer arrived.
The second one is now caught before anything is pushed: the preflight runs
each sample shape past the port that would receive it, which is what turns
"expected record, got dict" from a runtime surprise into a line of output.
Also records the two engine faults this seeding session surfaced.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
The Node-RED installation this replaces is 865 nodes across three tabs, and
roughly a fifth of it is unreachable — the pellet stove's controller, the
scene engine and the awning's logic were all disconnected from the heartbeat
they ran on. What is here is the intent rather than the wiring: nineteen named
flows, 109 nodes, and no heartbeat at all. A sensor value is the event.
The device layer moves with it. `actor/*` and `light/*` were never a device
interface — Node-RED subscribed to its own topics, stamped a DMX channel on
each and encoded one Art-Net universe — so those topics retire with it and the
encoders are five nodes in the `dmx` flow.
Two shared library nodes carry what every actuator needs.
`arbiter` answers the thing this design was missing: a value someone sets on a
screen is not undone by the next evaluation. A manual value wins for a hold,
the house takes over when it expires, and a schedule can force past both — so
"off at two in the morning" still means off. The control binds to the message
the arbiter writes back, so one tile shows what reached the fixture and
setting it is the override.
`motor` is why a stop is now commanded once. A rollershutter has no position
sensor, so time is the only feedback: it says how long to run and a trigger
sends the single STOP that ends it. The reference sent STOP forever.
Everything is seeded stopped, the Art-Net node does not transmit and the heat
pump does not accept commands until house.json says so.
`--dry` checks the whole set without an installation: names nothing provides,
loops, type disagreements, widgets bound to nothing, and every Python node run
once on values of the shape it declared — including whether what it returns
goes anywhere. That last one has already caught a typo that would have
published into silence.
house.json holds this installation's addresses, MAC addresses and DMX map and
is git-ignored, as the Node-RED inventory is.

Four small things, each with a device behind it.
An MQTT filter now routes what it subscribed to. `+` and `#` reached the
broker and were then looked up in an exact-match dict, so every message a
wildcard subscription received was dropped in silence.
`json_key` lifts a value out of the object a device wraps it in — Victron
publishes `{"value": 47}` on every path, which was otherwise a Python node
per port.
The trigger node learned `passthrough` and `wait_port`, because how long to
wait can be a value rather than a constant: a rollershutter takes 26 seconds
up and 28 down. A wait of zero sends nothing afterwards and still cancels
what the last message scheduled, which is how a stop is commanded once
instead of forever.
The HTTP sender takes fixed `query` parameters, so an API key is a secret
reference rather than a message on the canvas, and `send_inputs` off for a
request whose inputs are only a trigger.
Also: `delay` accepts fractional seconds, and `TZ` reaches the container, so
a cron expression means local time. Left unset it is UTC, as before.

A dashboard could only ever receive as a set of tiles. This adds the dashboard
itself as a receiver: `settings` maps a name to a value plus an optional
binding. Unbound, the setting is simply its value — a wall panel that is always
dark costs no flow. Bound, a flow drives it live and the value is the fallback.
Two settings are wired: `theme` (system/light/dark) and `locked` (read-only).
There is no schedule field on purpose — a node publishing to the bound message
on a cron is what a schedule is here, which is the point of a channel.
- `messages_for()` now walks a dashboard's bound settings as well as its
widgets' bindings. Without this a paired screen is refused its own theme
message, on the one surface the setting exists for; it bounds the socket too.
- `locked` is gated in `usePublish`, so every control inherits it, and each
control also draws itself disabled — a dead button reads as broken otherwise.
The panel surface says Read-only in the corner.
- The theme is a class on the dashboard's own surface, never the root: inside
the app shell it must not flip the chrome. `.light` gains the tokens `.dark`
already had (mirrored in the index repo) so both directions work on a subtree.
- Settings bindings are type-checked from the document alone, the rule widget
bindings follow, and mirrored on the server.
- A bound setting is drawn on the flow canvas as a dashboard-level endpoint.
- The demo's house flow now publishes `home.panel_theme`, which the demo
dashboard's theme binds to: the panel goes dark after sunset, at no tile cost.

A custom hue ring — a conic gradient, not a canvas — with saturation and
brightness sliders beside or under it depending on the tile's shape, sized
for a wall panel and reachable from a keyboard. It publishes [h, s, v] by
default, which is what the reference installation's DMX encoders read, and
`format` switches that to [r, g, b] or "#rrggbb".
`usePublish` moves to its own module so a widget in a file of its own can
reach it without importing `widgets.tsx` back.
The panel now carries one wfrac node per unit, polling as well as commanding,
so a command can be checked against the unit's own answer rather than assumed.
Three things kept a panel from driving the old unit. The seeded commands catch
is off by default, which is the usual reason a fresh panel looks dead;
AIRCON_COMMANDS=1 arms it at seed time. A unit that is off names no mode, and
a flow redelivers every bound port on each run, so that rejected value blocked
every command including power-on. And the old firmware serves one connection
at a time.
