The canvas lays itself out: a layered graph, left to right on a desktop and
top to bottom on a phone, with room reserved for the value each edge carries.
Nodes cannot be dragged and `NodeDef.position` is gone from the document —
a graph nobody can arrange is one worth keeping small, which is what keeps
flows atomic. Endpoints join the same layout, so their lanes and the
localStorage that remembered where they were dragged go too.
Mobile, per the new Responsive section of DESIGN-GUIDELINES.md: the dock caps
its width and wraps instead of running off the screen, the dashboard stacks
into one column rather than shrinking a wall panel to a fifth of its size, and
Home stops widening its grid track past the viewport. A Playwright project at
a phone's width fails the build when a screen no longer fits.
Along the way: publish is the checkmark that was already there rather than a
button that appears and disappears, with discard beside it on both the flow
and the dashboard; the brain reveals a neuron's name on the first tap; and the
port sparklines get room to breathe.

networkidle now falls between Home's independent fetches, so make verify was
photographing the skeletons: no name, no Admin nav, "No flows yet" and zeroed
tiles on an instance with three flows.

One shell for both editors. Flows and dashboards each get a searchable
overview under the padded shell, their editors move to the full-bleed
canvas, and the floating chrome is shared: a title bar that only says
what you are looking at, and a bottom dock carrying everything else —
the flow bar's status, settings and Publish moved down there, the
add-flow button moved to the overview.
Dashboards gain the rest of M4's visualization work:
- widgets are picked by clicking them, with the header as the drag
handle so a slider still slides and a switch still flips while
editing; settings moved into the flows' SidePanel
- react-grid-layout for drag and edge-resize, so the stored x/y finally
mean something; a dashboard nobody arranged is shelf-packed once
- a per-dashboard grid size, so a panel can be matched to its screen
- the chart widget, drawn with uPlot: several messages on one axis, fed
from the stored history plus the live socket tail, coloured from the
new --chart-1..5 ramp
- /view/{name}: the URL a wall panel is pointed at — no sidebar, no
footer, no editing, and no editor code, since routes are split
- a widget wired to a payload type it cannot carry, or wired to nothing
at all, carries the same red dot a failing node does; the picker
records the type it bound and WidgetDef refuses a mismatch on save

Three things they were missing: they could not be dragged out of the lane
they were placed in, they stayed the same weight whether or not you were
reaching for one, and the label sat right against its connector dot.
Where one has been dragged to is a view preference, not part of the flow —
writing a position for a dashboard widget into flow.json would be a lie
about what the document holds — so it lives in the browser, keyed by flow.
Also folds the dashboard shot into `make verify` and drops the one-off
scripts that had accumulated beside it; the durable coverage is the
Playwright specs, which all pass.

The browser half of M3. Flows open on a full-bleed canvas with their chrome
floating over it: flow tabs top, dock bottom, node settings in a panel on the
right that leaves the graph visible and running behind it.
- Connections are derived, not stored. A node declares the messages it reads
and publishes; every matching pair draws an edge, so two producers of one
message converge on their consumer. Dragging output to input is shorthand
for pointing that input at the producer's message, and asks before it
replaces an existing one.
- Values land on the edges as they flow, over a websocket that feeds a store
outside React, so a value arriving re-renders its own chip and nothing else.
Clicking an edge shows the last payload and when it arrived.
- Node source is edited in Monaco, loaded only when a panel opens and themed
from the design tokens.
- Edits autosave; identical documents are skipped server-side, so a quiet
canvas writes nothing.
- Validation from the API shows on the node it belongs to and is summarised in
the dock, where each entry pans to its node.
- Works on a phone: touch-connect, 44px dock targets, and the node panel
becomes a full-screen sheet.
Two new tokens (--status-success, --font-mono) are mirrored in the website repo
and recorded in DESIGN-GUIDELINES.md.

- exclude app/flow from ruff and mypy: it is not importable as a package and
nothing in the API reaches it, so 405 of the 412 findings were about code
scheduled for restructuring (see NOTEPAD.md)
- fix the 7 real findings outside it: col(...) around created_at for the
.desc() ordering, and a type: ignore that is no longer needed
- compose.local.yml resets the host ports compose.dev.yml publishes; the
integrated stack is served entirely through Traefik, and a port already
taken on the host used to fail the whole stack
