The editor only ever arranged the first section, so the demo's Home
dashboard lost 16 of its 25 widgets the moment it was edited. A page's
sections are now read as one arrangement — each pushed below the one
before it — and written back as one, which is the shape a dashboard was
already heading for: one dashboard, one canvas, and the panel rail for
the several-dashboards story. The page tabs that story made dead are
gone; PageDef/SectionDef stay in the schema and a page the editor does
not show round-trips untouched.
The row height derives from the canvas as the column width already did,
so the same arrangement is the same picture on a 7" panel as on a 4K
one. The uPlot rules move beside UplotChart, where a chart on Health is
styled without a dashboard having been visited first, and the bar's
readout travels on one property instead of jumping sides at 30%.

An input widget published over HTTP and read the result back over the socket,
so between the two it drew the pre-publish value — a slider handle let go of
visibly snapped back. usePublish now holds the sent value until the echo
matches, the publish is refused, or 3 s pass, and every input widget (button,
switch, slider, input, dropdown) draws that instead of the live value.
A publish in flight pulses a primary ring over the tile: an absolutely
positioned, inert overlay, so nothing resizes or shifts. A refusal drops the
hold and toasts, naming the message. Success stays silent.
The slider also draws its own scale — min, max and a few labelled stops that
land on steps — replacing the unlabelled datalist marks that dropped out past
fifty steps.

A bar drew its nested reading on top of the outer one in --chart-5, which
measures 2.53:1 against --primary and lost the 3:1 guideline for non-text. The
readings now partition the fill end to end, up to three of them, in a token of
their own: --primary-nested, the primary hue a few steps deeper, 3.14:1 light
and 3.12:1 dark. It cannot also clear 3:1 against --muted — in dark those two
are 5.82:1 apart and a colour 3:1 from both would need a 9:1 gap — so a segment
is drawn inside a gutter of outer fill rather than ever bordering the track,
which is what separates neighbours too, and what caps the count at three. A
nested value larger than its outer used to spill onto the track; it is clamped.
`inner` still reads as a single binding, so no dashboard needs migrating.
On a phone, .widget-grid took its width from the widest thing any widget held —
a truncating flex item still offers its whole unwrapped line as a min-content
contribution — and a handful of widgets had no floor of their own: the uPlot
legend is a table, a fieldset carries min-inline-size: min-content from the UA
sheet, and buttons are whitespace-nowrap. Each is capped now. A widget's body
scrolls rather than clipping, so long text stops painting over the title.
Gauges and bars move between readings instead of jumping, and a segmented
control slides one thumb rather than recolouring cells. The gauge arc is drawn
whole and revealed by its dash, because `d` cannot be transitioned.
UplotChart pushed new readings only when the point count changed, so once a
rolling window was full a refetch left the old values on screen.

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.

A dashboard now carries the canvas it is drawn for (canvas_width /
canvas_height, presets plus two numbers in the settings panel). Editor and
wall panel render that surface at its true pixel size and scale it to fit,
so a side panel opening changes only the scale — never the arrangement
being made. With the width and column count known the dot pitch is exact,
(width + gap) / columns by row height + gap, so a dot sits where every
widget corner snaps. The wall panel shows no dots.

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
