Inline comments:
In `@electron/ai-edition/agent-tools.ts`:
- Line 1957: Update addAudio around anchorForAgent so the new audio region is
placed or repelled against existing audio ranges on the same kind lane before it
is appended. Preserve the same-lane non-overlap behavior provided by setAudio
and replacePillSpan, and add a regression covering two overlapping music
regions.
- Line 1944: Update the duration calculation in audioOffsetRefusal so
DEFAULT_AGENT_AUDIO_SEC is used unless durationSec is greater than zero, rather
than relying on nullish coalescing. Preserve the existing offset and
minimum-duration behavior, and add a regression test covering durationSec: 0
with omitted endSec.
In `@electron/ipc/handlers.ts`:
- Line 3769: Update the generic read handler around approveReadableAvPath so it
requires the path to already have an approved capability instead of
auto-approving arbitrary existing media files. Restrict approval restoration to
the trusted document-load flow and preserve the existing approved-path behavior
for generic reads.
In `@electron/stt/index.ts`:
- Line 246: Update the active extraction flow around extractMono16kPcm to create
and retain an AbortController, pass its signal to native extraction, and abort
that controller from cancel() so in-progress ffmpeg work stops promptly. Add a
regression test in the STT package covering cancellation during source-path
extraction.
In `@src/components/ai-edition/NewEditorShell.tsx`:
- Around line 853-860: Add coverage in NewEditorShell.pasteRegion.test.tsx for
pasting an audio clipboard region, exercising the audio branch of the paste
handler and asserting the resulting saved document includes the pasted region in
audioRanges.
In `@src/components/ai-edition/v4/FloatingInspector.tsx`:
- Around line 411-416: Associate the range input and select rendered in the
paneRow audio controls with their visible labels by adding appropriate
aria-label values or converting the labels to associated label elements. Ensure
both controls, including the symbols around the range input and the select near
the later control block, expose their purpose to assistive technology.
In `@src/components/ai-edition/v4/V4Timeline.tsx`:
- Around line 1418-1426: Wrap the audio pill icon and label in the existing
styles.laneAudioLabel container near the ClipWaveform rendering in V4Timeline,
ensuring the label is positioned above the absolutely positioned waveform and
remains readable. Use the existing style without changing waveform behavior.
In `@src/lib/ai-edition/document/timeline.ts`:
- Around line 251-252: Update the projection branch ordering around the
speed-region handling so a region with clipId but without a complete source
range is treated as unanchored and routed through the ruler-shift path instead
of returning null; preserve the existing anchored behavior for regions with
complete clip/source range data, consistent with hasCompleteClipAnchor and
removeClip.
In `@src/lib/ai-edition/store/useTimeline.ts`:
- Around line 1350-1357: In the offset-update block of replacePillSpan, restrict
the coalesced region and subsequent offset mapping to fragments belonging to the
edited pill identified by leadId, rather than all ids in after.ids. Compute
movedSec from that edited pill’s pre-edit and post-edit region boundaries, and
update only its audioRanges entries so overlapping identical neighbours retain
their own offsetSec.
In `@src/lib/captioning/transcribe.ts`:
- Line 135: Update the RendererSttApi.transcribe contract to accept sourcePath
alongside samples, and ensure the implementation and runTranscription call
support either payload shape while preserving the existing forcedLanguage
handling.

Lines 479-494 state that an audio track is "NOT clip-anchored" and that it carries

In `@src/lib/ai-edition/document/timeline.ts`:
- Around line 388-391: Update the structural clip-mutation flow, especially
removeClip and its rederiveRegionMs handling, to pass audio tracks through
reanchorAudioTracks before storing the updated document. Preserve imported audio
fragments when their clipId is removed, and replace the direct audioTracks
rederivation path with the reanchored result.
In `@src/lib/ai-edition/store/projectStore.ts`:
- Around line 404-410: Update the import flow so the parsed document is
committed before awaiting probeAudioDuration(). After probing, re-read the
current document from the store and update only the asset matching
addedAsset.id, preserving concurrent imports or timeline edits; avoid using the
pre-await document snapshot in the final set() call.
In `@src/lib/ai-edition/store/useTimeline.ts`:
- Around line 1415-1417: Update the loop-toggle flow around patchAudioTrack and
saveDocument to re-anchor split-track fragments with anchorAudioTrackFragments
whenever loop changes in either direction. When enabling loop, extend endMs to
programmeEndMs; when disabling it, preserve the appropriate non-looping end and
re-anchor offsets. Add a multi-clip regression test covering both transitions.
In `@src/native/sceneDescription.ts`:
- Line 620: The repeat-generation loop in the scene description export must not
silently stop at 1,000 entries; update the looping-audio representation to
compactly encode additional repeats or validate and reject spans exceeding an
explicit product limit before export. Preserve complete coverage for supported
spans and add a test exercising a span that exceeds the current 1,000-repeat
boundary.
In `@technical-documentation/architecture/document-model.md`:
- Line 30: Update the audioTracks[] row in the document model table to describe
clip anchoring via clipId and trackId, virtual edited-timeline milliseconds, and
the stored fields startMs, endMs, offsetMs, and gainDb; remove the inaccurate
raw-timeline and trim-field descriptions. Revise the provenance note to include
agent-created tracks via addAudio setting origin to "agent", rather than stating
the timeline toolbar is the sole writer.

Nitpick comments:
In `@electron/ai-edition/agent-tools.test.ts`:
- Around line 2132-2137: Extend the “allows any offset while the duration is
unknown” test for place so it also asserts the returned track uses the
DEFAULT_AGENT_AUDIO_SEC fallback when endSec is omitted, rather than only
checking result.ok. Keep the existing unknown-duration offset behavior assertion
unchanged.
In `@src/components/ai-edition/v4/AddAudioLayerDialog.tsx`:
- Around line 176-186: Update the recorder.onstop handler to clear timerRef when
recording ends, including tracks that stop independently. Preserve the existing
recording state reset and elapsed-time calculation behavior.
In `@src/components/ai-edition/VirtualPreview.tsx`:
- Around line 643-676: Hoist each track’s speed-free start projection out of the
per-track work and reuse it for spanSec: compute projectRawTimelineSecToPlayback
for track.startMs / 1000 without speedRegions once, while retaining the
speed-aware projection for outputStartSec. Update the spanSec subtraction to use
the cached speed-free start value, preserving the existing speed-independent
length and speed-aware position semantics in the audioTracksRef loop.
In `@src/lib/ai-edition/schema/index.ts`:
- Around line 479-496: Remove the stale first documentation paragraph above the
audio-track schema, including its claims that tracks are not clip-anchored and
use timelineStartSec/trimStartSec/trimEndSec. Preserve the subsequent paragraph
describing the clip-anchored audio-track contract, including clipAnchorShape and
offsetMs.

#570 (word edits) and #569 (imported audio) both rewrite the transcript pane, and #560's lane selector sits on top of both: the tab has to know which lane it reads before a double-click can correct a word in it. Testing either alone stopped being useful. Merged rather than rebased. This branch already carries merge commits, so a rebase flattens them and replays conflicts that were resolved weeks ago — which is exactly what a first attempt did, re-adding a `MediaList` to LeftPanel that `feat(editor): add audio from the timeline toolbar, not the media tab` had deliberately taken out. Where the two met: - The transcript pane. #570's `<Pane>` structure wins — it owns the gesture hint and the word-edit callbacks. #569 contributes the caption-settings action and the lane switch, which goes ABOVE the hint so the hint always describes the stream directly under it. The empty-state guard becomes `placements.length`, so it answers for the lane being read rather than for the recording. - The locale files. Merged as OBJECTS, not as text: both branches append keys to the same blocks, so every one of those 26 conflicts was a union git could not see, and hand-editing them is how a dropped comma or a doubled key gets in. `transcript.help` takes #570's copy — it is the one that mentions double-click, which now exists. - Fixtures. Each branch's pane tests learn the other's props, and the audio lane fixture gains `transcripts: []` for the amber added-word marks.

changed the title
Phase 1 of issue #350 (import voiceover / BGM / SFX). Adds the document model for timeline audio tracks without any UI, IPC, or export wiring yet. - Widen assetSchema.kind to enum(["video","audio"]) so an imported audio file (no video stream) has its own kind. Additive — every existing doc holds "video", which still validates, so no schemaVersion bump. - Add audioTrackSchema: a timeline-global track addressed in OUTPUT (post-trim/post-speed) timeline seconds, the same domain the compositor's concatenated programme PCM lives in. That invariant is what will keep the live preview and the export in sync in later phases. - Add document.audioTracks[] (defaulted, so pre-#350 docs load unchanged), the AxcutAudioTrack type, and a createAudioTrack factory. - Tests cover defaults, trim/position validation, factory round-trip, the kind widening, and that a document omitting audioTracks defaults to []. - Fixture fallout: 15 test files + browserShim build full AxcutDocument literals and now carry audioTracks: [] alongside their zoomRanges: []. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Phase 2 of issue #350. Wires up picking an external audio file (voiceover / BGM / SFX) and adding it to a project as a kind:"audio" asset. No timeline placement, preview, or export yet. - IPC: open-audio-file-picker mirrors the video picker but approves against a dedicated audio extension set (mp3/wav/m4a/aac/flac/ogg/opus). Factor the path approver into a shared approveReadableMediaPath so the audio and video approvers differ only by their extension gate — an audio picker must not approve a video path or vice versa. - document-service.addAsset takes a kind; an audio import validates against audio extensions and never claims the empty primaryAssetId slot, so a BGM file dropped into a fresh project can't become its primary (video) asset. Threaded kind through the bridge chain (contracts, client, nativeBridge, aiEditionService) and the browser shim. - projectStore.addAudioAsset imports the file, skips the camera-sidecar lookup addAsset does, and probes the real duration up front (new probeAudioDuration, the <audio> counterpart of probeVideoDuration) so the timeline can size the track in a later phase. - i18n: selectAudio / audioFiles dialog strings across all 13 locales (English placeholders for the untranslated 12). - Tests: document-service audio branch (kind, primary guard, extension routing), probeAudioDuration (shared harness, driven per media tag), and addAudioAsset (bridge kind arg, no camera lookup, duration stamping). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Phase 3 of issue #350. Adds the mutations that place and edit imported audio tracks on the timeline. Still no UI or preview/export — that's next. - New pure module document/audioTracks.ts: append / remove / move / trim / gain / mute, each taking an AxcutDocument and returning a new one. Audio tracks aren't clip-anchored (they float over the assembled programme in output-timeline seconds), so these are plain array edits with schema-valid guards — negatives floored, trimEnd pulled up to trimStart, NaN → 0. - useTimeline wraps them: addAudioTrack looks up the audio asset, places the head at the playhead (output time) by default, and returns the new track id for the UI to select; move/resize/gain/mute/remove each commit one history step. Refuses a non-audio or unknown asset. - Tests: the pure ops (immutability, guards, isolation) and the hook wiring (asset lookup, playhead placement, save, undo). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Phase 4a of issue #350 — the first user-visible slice. Import an external audio file and it lands on a timeline lane you can select and adjust. Drag-to-move and edge-trim are deferred to a follow-up (4b); reposition is via a numeric offset field in the inspector until then. - Media panel gains an "Import audio" button next to "Import media" (openAudioFilePicker -> store.importAudioAsset), which adds the asset and places a track at the playhead in one action. - Selection lives in the project store, not useTimeline's local state, because the media panel and the inspector are in different subtrees and both touch it; region/clip selection stays hook-local. The hook delegates addAudioTrack to the store and reads selection from it. - V4Timeline renders an audio lane (shown once a track exists) with a teal pill per track: the ClipWaveform reused as a background, windowed to the track's trim and scaled by its own gain, plus a label and mute glyph. Click selects. - The inspector shows an AudioTrackPane (volume / mute / start-offset / remove) in place of the facet when a track is selected, the same precedence a region selection gets. - i18n: importAudio / couldNotAddAudio (editor) and an audioTrack block (settings) across all 13 locales. - documentWriteAudit gains rows for the seven new save sites (two store, five hook), each classified by trigger; this audit should have been run in phases 2-3 and now is. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Phase 4b of issue #350 — the audio lane is now interactive. Grab the pill body to slide the track, the edge handles to trim: left moves the in-point (and the head, so the right edge stays put), right moves the out-point, capped at the source length. - New setAudioTrackPlacement pure op writes position and both trim points in one shot, so a left-edge drag (which changes timelineStartSec AND trimStartSec together) commits as a single undo step. Hook wrapper placeAudioTrack; documentWriteAudit row added. - startAudioDrag mirrors the region pills' drag: a local preview during the gesture, the same PILL_SNAP_PX magnet to clip boundaries and timeline ends, and one document write on pointerup. AudioLanePill grows two resize handles and moves on a body grab; selection happens on pointer-down. - Tests: the placement op's guards, and the drag itself (pointer→second math, single commit, in/out-point semantics) driven through the geometry harness. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Phase 5 of issue #350 — imported audio is now audible while editing. Each track plays over the video, positioned on the RAW virtual timeline where it was placed, at its own level. - VirtualPreview mounts one <audio> per track and syncs it in the existing 60Hz rAF loop: position from resolveTimelineAudioPlayback (playhead − timelineStart, offset by the trim in-point), play only inside the track's window, pause outside or when muted, and match the video's playbackRate so a speed region keeps A/V together. Level is the track gain × the global output gain via element.volume — deliberately NOT a WebAudio node, so the delicate primary/supplemental graph is untouched; a boost past 0 dB clamps in the preview but is still written to the export. - Threaded audioTracks + audioSources through Preview → PreviewCanvas → VirtualPreview. videoSources already resolves a URL for every asset, so it doubles as the audio source list (looked up by assetId); both props default to empty, so a project with no imported audio is unchanged. - A note on the coordinate system: tracks live on the RAW/document timeline (where addAudioTrack seeds timelineStartSec from the playhead), not the trim-compressed output timeline — corrected the Phase 1 comment's claim. The export will mix on the same RAW positions (Phase 6). - Tests: the sync math (window, trim offset, mute, untrimmed tail) and an rAF-driven integration test that the loop seeks + plays/pauses the element. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Phase 6 of issue #350 — imported audio now lands in the export, not just the preview. The native compositor mixes each track over the assembled programme. - audio.rs::mix_external_tracks overlays each track between assemble_concatenated_pcm and finish_audio: its trim window is decoded through the same decode_clip_audio path a clip's audio uses (48 kHz stereo), scaled by the per-track gain (the same 10^(dB/20) law as finish_audio), and summed in at its startSec offset. A track past the video end is truncated so audio and video stay the same length. The placement/gain/clamp math is split into overlay_track_pcm and unit-tested without ffmpeg (cargo test, verified on Linux). - scene.rs gains SceneAudioTrack + Scene.audio_tracks (a separate field, so SceneAudio stays Copy and the pipelines keep copying it out of a borrow). Wired into all three pipeline_{linux,macos,windows}.rs. - buildSceneDescription resolves each track to { path, startSec, gainDb, trimStartSec, trimEndSec, mute }. startSec is the raw timeline position — exact without trims/speed, an accepted approximation otherwise (the preview approximates trims the same way); trimEndSec is always concrete (the compositor preallocates the decode window from it). resolveSceneAssetPaths round-trips the JSON so the new field reaches the addon untouched. - Corrected the Phase 1 schema comment (tracks live on the RAW timeline, not output time) and documented the mix step in export-pipeline.md. Verified: compositor builds + `cargo test --lib audio` (14) pass on Linux; tsc (app+test), biome, and the scene-description tests (95) pass. NOT yet verified: the addon (.node) must be rebuilt with build:native:compositor:linux and an actual export listened to — the manual E2E this phase requires. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Addresses review feedback on #350: a separate "Import audio" button was both undiscoverable (added to only one of three media surfaces) and worse UX than just letting "Import media" take audio too. - open-video-file-picker is now a combined media picker: it offers video AND audio, approves whichever was chosen (video path first, then audio), and returns `kind` so the renderer routes an audio file to importAudioAsset (asset + timeline track) and a video file to addAsset (clip). - All three import surfaces route by kind: MediaStage (the main media view), MediaPane (chat side panel), and EditorEmptyState. The standalone "Import audio" button and its handler are removed. - Dropped the now-dead open-audio-file-picker IPC, its preload method/type, and the importAudio / couldNotAddAudio / selectAudio strings; added a mediaFiles dialog string across all 13 locales. approveReadableAudioPath and the audio extension set stay — the combined picker uses them. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Two issues from testing the #350 import: - Jitter: the preview re-seeked each imported track whenever it drifted >25 ms from the playhead. The primary/supplemental audio can use that tight leash because it syncs to the <video>'s own authoritative clock; an imported track syncs to virtualTimeSec, which is DERIVED from that clock each frame and slightly noisy, so at 25 ms it re-seeked most frames and each seek briefly stalled the element — the jitter. Widen the leash to 300 ms while the element is playing (it free-runs in sync from the right offset; the wide leash only catches real scrubs / trim jumps), keeping the 25 ms leash for the paused/seek case. Music beds don't need frame-tight sync — that's the video's job. - Audio shown "along the recording": handleDropAsset (the media stage's "Add to timeline" button and drag) ran insertClipAt for ANY asset, so adding an imported audio asset built a video-style clip in the clip row on top of its lane track. An audio asset has no video and must never become a clip: route it to addAudioTrack instead, and reuse its existing track so the same file can't stack duplicate lanes.

Reworks the #350 import UX per testing feedback: the media tab arranges video CLIPS (it chains them), which is the wrong model for an audio overlay. Audio is now added the way an annotation is — a timeline action. - New "Add audio" tool in the timeline toolbar (music icon, next to zoom/speed/camera): opens an audio-only picker and places a track at the playhead via importAudioAsset. - The media tab is video-only again: open-video-file-picker reverts to video extensions, restored the dedicated open-audio-file-picker for the toolbar, and MediaStage / MediaPane / EditorEmptyState import video only. - Audio assets are hidden from the media lists (MediaStage + MediaPane) — they're managed on the timeline lane (select the pill to edit/remove), so they never appear as chainable clips. - i18n: audioTrack.add / importFailed, restored selectAudio, dropped the now-unused mediaFiles, across all 13 locales. The handleDropAsset guard (audio → track, never a clip) stays as a backstop. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Testing feedback on the #350 audio UI: - Move the "Add audio" toolbar button left of the first divider (grouped with auto-enhance, ahead of the region tools) instead of isolated at the end. - AudioTrackPane: header is now the generic "Audio track"; the file name moves into the body. Drop the mute button and the start-offset field (position and mute are handled on the lane), leaving volume + delete. The delete button now matches the region panes' danger-outlined style. - Remove the now-unused audioTrack.offset / mute / unmute strings across all 13 locales and correct the help text.

More #350 UI feedback: - Move the "Add audio" toolbar button to directly right of "Add annotation" (the comment tool), rendered inside the tool row via a Fragment. - Rename the inspector's "Remove track" to "Delete track" and make the button full-width, matching the region panes' delete button.

Per #350 feedback: label the slider "Output level" (reusing audio.outputGain, the same string the global Audio pane shows) and add a "Reset audio" button that zeroes the track's gain, styled like the global pane's reset. Drop the now-unused audioTrack.volume string. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
moveAudioTrack and resizeAudioTrack lost their only callers when the inspector's offset field was removed; the lane's edge-drag commits position and trim together through placeAudioTrack (setAudioTrackPlacement), so the separate position-only and trim-only ops were dead. Remove the two hook wrappers, the two pure document ops (moveAudioTrack, setAudioTrackTrim), their tests, and their document-write-audit rows. placeAudioTrack / setAudioTrackPlacement stay and still cover both edges.

The mute button was removed during UI review, leaving mute reachable nowhere — a working-but-unsettable flag with a dead branch in the Rust mixer. It was added on this branch and never shipped, so it comes out cleanly with no schema migration. Volume (down to -12 dB) plus delete cover the need for a simple audio overlay; a mute+solo pass can come back as its own feature. Removed end-to-end: audioTrackSchema.mute, setAudioTrackMute / toggleAudioTrackMute, the pill's mute glyph + .laneAudioMuted, the preview's mute gate, the scene's mute field (TS + scene.rs), the mixer's mute skip, and every test that exercised it. Rust (cargo test --lib audio, 14) and TS (1049 across ai-edition + native) pass; compositor addon rebuilt. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Phase 7 leftover for issue #350: the top-level-shape table enumerated every other document array but not the new audioTracks[]. Add the row. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Step 1 of the insertion layer. A word typed into the transcript has no recording behind
it; until there is TTS and frame generation, the stand-in is the last frame the recording
showed, held, over faint noise — but a REAL file, with real frames and a real audio track,
so everything downstream decodes it like any other media instead of special-casing its
absence. That is the whole point of the new architecture.
One ffmpeg pass, no temp file: seek to the moment, keep the single frame there, loop it
for the duration, mux it against a noise source of the same length. `resolveFfmpeg` and
the spawn pattern come from `audioPeaks`. Derived, never authored: the name carries the
word and the duration, so a re-typed word asks for a different file, a stale one is never
asked for again, and a missing one is a regeneration rather than a broken edit.
Two things running it against the live recording taught, both now pinned:
- `libx264` is GPL and is not in the bundled LGPL ffmpeg — the first real run died with
"Unknown encoder". `libopenh264` is the software H.264 encoder every LGPL build
carries on every platform; the hardware ones each need their own hardware, which is
not worth a platform branch for a clip of a few seconds.
- the live project's asset carries `fps: 0` — the probe never filled it in — and a loop
filter with no rate produces nothing. Falls back to 30, marked with its ceiling.
Verified end to end against the real recording: 3.60s out for 3.60s asked, 1920x1080 at
30fps, 48kHz audio. The unit test asserts the ARGUMENTS rather than running ffmpeg —
running it would test ffmpeg, and the arguments are where a mistake actually lives.
…ot a file
Step 2. `clipParts(clip, words)` is the ONE module that knows an extension exists:
[ recording 0→4 ] [ extension "really" 0.4s ] [ recording 4→10 ]
The extension is appended to the clip's LIST, never spliced into the media's own axis, and
that is the decision everything rests on: no stored source coordinate moves. The second
recording part resumes at source 4, exactly where the first stopped — a word, a trim, a
zoom keeps the second it was authored at, for ever, and adding or removing an extension
cannot corrupt an anchor. Pinned by its own assertion, not left as a claim.
Nothing new is stored. The word is the truth; its duration comes from its text, its file
is derived from the pair, its part is derived from the clip's window. That whole chain
reads in one direction, which is what `insertRanges` never managed — it was a stored fact
beside the word that something had to keep true, and three separate reconcilers grew
around it.
Above this module a part is just media with a source window and a place on the timeline,
so the plain arithmetic every reader used before insertions works again. That is the point
of the layer: the 30 signatures and 61 special cases do not come back.
Mutation-checked: dropping the split, the advance, or the source cursor each fails two or
three assertions.
…ent like any other Step 3. `resolvePlaybackSegments` iterates a clip's PARTS instead of its source window, so an added word becomes a segment of its own between the two halves of the recording — and the halves keep the source seconds they always had. `extensionWordId` replaces `heldSec` on the derived segment, and the difference is the whole architecture: it names which MEDIA to play, not what behaviour to perform. A reader resolves it to a file the way it resolves any other; it does not carry a special case for a stretch with nothing to decode. That is why the 30 signatures and 61 special cases have no reason to come back. A trim still cuts the recording and can never cut an extension — not by a guard, but because a trim is anchored in the RECORDING's seconds and an extension has none. Asserted rather than assumed. The transcripts reach the funnel through the props that already carry the trims, and `transcripts` defaults to empty: a caller that passes none gets exactly the behaviour it had before extensions existed, which is what the untouched 2573 tests are checking. Mutation-checked: bypassing the layer fails three of the five new assertions.
… write goes through Step 4a. `timelineEndSec` is stored and the ruler reads it, so a clip left short draws a film that ends before the programme does — the desync the previous attempt spent its life chasing. `withClipsSizedToParts` recomputes it from the parts, and `withTranscript` — the single door every transcript write already went through — calls it. A recompute, not a reconciliation, and the distinction is the whole reason this is three lines instead of three modules: the parts are derived from the words, so there is no second stored fact that can drift from the first. Idempotent, and a no-op for a document with no added words, which is what the 2576 untouched tests are checking. Pinned: the clip lengthens by exactly the media the word needs and takes not one frame of the recording with it, and removing the word gives the length back exactly. Mutation-checked: dropping the resize fails the first assertion.
Step 4b. `extensionWordId` becomes a path, and the path becomes a file. `extensionClipPath` is pure string work over the asset path and the word, so the renderer and the main process arrive at the same name without asking each other — the renderer names the file it expects, the process that can spawn ffmpeg writes the file it named. One rule, both sides, nothing stored. It lives beside the recording it was cut from, in a hidden sibling folder, because it is derived: deleting it costs a regeneration and nothing else. The scene builder gives an extension segment that path and leaves everything else about the entry alone — same webcam pairing, same audio expectation — which is the point of making it a file rather than a behaviour. Generation happens on SAVE, the only moment the main process sees the document, and AFTER the write: a derived file is not worth delaying the user's edit reaching disk, and a failure to produce one is logged and swallowed rather than failing the save. The segment renders black until the next save regenerates it — the edit is never lost to a missing derived file. The Windows-path test builds its backslash with `String.fromCharCode(92)` rather than escaping it: the escape is what kept getting lost between the tool and the file, and a test that quietly passes a carriage return is worse than no test.
…ed a clip The player already knows how to play several clips over several files and swap at the boundary. An extension is exactly that — a different file, played for a stretch — so it is handed one rather than taught a new case. `clipsWithExtensions` splices each one in as a clip on its own media, and the source-swap, the clock and the boundary advance apply to it untouched. `ext:<wordId>` is the id its media answers to. Prefixed rather than opaque: it can never collide with a real asset, and it says what it is in a log line. The shell adds one video source per added word, beside the recordings, pointing at the path `extensionClipPath` names — the same path the save writes. The one place this could double up says so: `resolvePlaybackSegments` is given `[]` transcripts inside the preview, because `playerClips` has already spliced the extensions in and splicing them twice would play each one twice. A file the save has not written yet simply fails to load, and the player reports it the way it reports any unreadable source. The edit stands; the picture catches up on the next save. That is what making it a file rather than a behaviour buys — there is no state to get stuck in, only a source that is there or is not.
…n one place Three readers each wrote `timelineStartSec + (sec - sourceStartSec)` for themselves. That subtraction is right until a clip carries an extension, and wrong for every second after one — by the whole length inserted before it. So the captions after an insertion showed early, and the pane highlighted the word after the inserted one instead of the inserted one. Same arithmetic, three copies, one bug counted three times. `partsRawSec` is now the only place it is written, and its inverse `partsSourceSec` the only place it is undone. Both read the parts, which is where the interruption already lives, so neither has a notion of an extension of its own. Two answers the subtraction could not give: - A second sitting exactly where an insertion split maps to the moment AFTER the extension. That is where the recorded media of that second actually plays. - Inside an extension the source clock is parked at the split. None of the recording runs there, and the second before the split is the last one that did. The added word never asks either question. It has no source second — through source time it is indistinguishable from the recorded word that resumes beside it, which is exactly how the pane kept skipping over it. `extensionAt` names its moment from its own part, by id. `TranscriptPlacement` carries its parts now. One placement per clip, not one per part: a clip does not become three clips because a word was typed into it, and the pane still draws one header. Absent parts, every reader behaves as it did before extensions existed, which is what keeps the voiceover lane untouched. Known and not fixed here: `removedRawSpans` still measures trims linearly, so a trim in a clip that also carries an insertion tags words kept-or-removed slightly off. It moves no caption and no highlight — the recording lane never reads it for position.
…pe the app maps Every mapping in this codebase rests on one property: a clip is an UNINTERRUPTED shift between its source seconds and the ruler. `timelineMap`, the native `setActiveClip`, the exporter, the DOM player and the caption path all assume it. A clip interrupted by generated media breaks that assumption in all of them at once — which is why teaching them each about extensions never converged. It was eight special cases, and it was still one bug. What that cost, concretely: the native decoder was pointed at the recording for the whole clip, and the ruler seconds the insertion added mapped past the end of the media. The compositor did the only thing it can there — held the last frame. Hence generated content at the END of the clip instead of at the insertion. So the interruption is resolved once, in `withExtensions`, into the shape they already handle: a clip on an asset with a file. Below that line there are no extensions, only clips that happen to play a generated file, and every one of those mappings is correct again without being touched. `PlaybackSegment.extensionWordId` and the scene's extension branch are gone with it — the resolver is back to what it was before insertions existed. Derived, never stored: one direction, nothing to reconcile. The stored clip keeps its own identity and its own source window, and the words remain the only truth about what was added. A trim still names the clip it was authored on, so both halves of a split answer to that name — `baseClipId`. The generated media is a MIRE over audible noise, and the recording is not read at all. A held frame is indistinguishable on screen from a decoder stuck at the end of a clip, which is exactly the bug it hid for three rounds; a test pattern says "this is generated, and it is playing HERE" at a glance. Swap it for synthesized frames the day there are any. Two more the same insertion caused: - The ruler's amber mark had `const width = 0` hard-coded and was placed by the clip's SOURCE span, which stops matching the box on screen the moment a word is added. It now spans the extension it stands for. - An added word was grouped into the caption line beside it and inherited that line's span, which is what glued the inserted subtitle to the one before. It is its own line now, over its own media — kept a point in source time on purpose, since its length comes from the extension and not from any word timing.
A word typed into the transcript now cuts its clip in two and puts a generated clip between the halves. Not derived at read time, as it was an hour ago — stored, because a derived view means two answers to "what does the film contain" and the readers were free to pick either. The generated clip is a clip like any other. It can be moved, cropped, edited and deleted from the timeline, and none of that needed a line of code: it has an asset with a real file, a source window, and a transcript holding its one word at 0→duration. So the pane, the captions, the cue highlight, the native decoder swap and the exporter all read it through the paths they already had. What that deletes: `withExtensions`, `clipParts`, `partsRawSec`, `partsSourceSec`, `extensionAt`, `extensionSpanAtSource`, `withClipsSizedToParts`, `parts` on `TranscriptPlacement`, `recordingPlacements`, the caption line-splitting, the amber mark and its arithmetic, the insert/remove word pair in `transcript.ts`, and the re-insertion half of `carryOverWordEdits` — re-transcribing a recording no longer has to put insertions back, because it never touches them. The delicate part is the inverse, and it is the part I would not have written unprompted: deleting the generated clip has to put the halves back together. It lives in `removeClip`, the single mutator for taking a clip away, so both delete paths get it. The guard is structural — same media, source ranges that meet, same crop — and refuses when the user has since made the halves two clips he means to keep. Both directions are mutation-tested: forcing the join breaks the crop case, refusing it breaks the round trip. ponytail: nothing else in the app can produce two contiguous clips of one media, so this can only ever undo an insertion. Give the cut a marker the day a razor tool lands. `baseClipId` is gone with it. Two clips sharing a name prefix was a hidden coupling that would have outlived the move it was meant to survive. The split re-anchors its rows instead: each one is copied onto both halves and `rederiveRegionMs` — which already clamps a region to its clip's window and drops what has nothing left — decides which survive. A zoom drawn across the moment a word was typed into survives on both sides, which is what it meant. The generated media is amber on the ruler.
…d media Tried it as the general invariant first — two adjacent clips that are one continuous piece of media are one clip, everywhere, so `insertion.ts` never learns how its cut goes back together. The premise it rests on is that two identical clips are laid side by side precisely when they are NOT joined in time. This codebase disagrees, twice, and its own tests said so: - `duplicateClip` copies a clip that sits before a contiguous neighbour. The copy is then contiguous with it, and swallowing the neighbour is not what "duplicate" means. - `replaceTimeline` cuts a recording into consecutive clips on purpose, so each piece can carry its own zoom. Joining them on the next unrelated delete collapses structure the user asked for. So the rule is narrowed on both axes, and both halves of that narrowness are paid for: only at the SEAM the departing clip was filling, and only when that clip was GENERATED media. What is left is exactly the inverse of what an insertion did, without an insertion having marked anything — generated media leaves no seam behind it. Deleting the clip and dragging it elsewhere both heal the cut, and `insertion.ts` still knows nothing about either. No marker on the cut, and no `baseClipId`: a parent id would have to survive every move that makes it wrong, and the departing clip already says everything needed at the moment it matters. The three mutators that hand-rolled `resequenceClips` + `rederiveRegionMs` now share one pass. The join sits beside it as the variant a removal or a move uses. One real bug found by writing the move test: the first version sorted by `timelineStartSec` before joining, and at that point the positions are still the pre-move ones — every reorder was silently sorted back where it came from. Adjacency is ARRAY adjacency.
…re one clip The rule, general again, on every clip change. I narrowed it last commit on the strength of a counter-example that does not hold, and the reasoning is worth writing down because it is what makes the general form safe. The counter-example was `duplicateClip`: a copy inserted after its original ends in the media where the original ends, so it can meet the clip that follows. It only meets it if the original met it — and if the original met it, they were already one clip. The fixture that made it fail started from two clips of one recording whose media timecodes met, which is exactly the state the rule says cannot exist. Given the invariant holds, no mutation can break it in a way that loses anything; the only states it can surprise are ones where the two clips were indistinguishable to begin with. The second reason I gave was wrong outright: `replaceTimeline` does not cut a recording into consecutive clips so each can carry a zoom. Zooms do not create clips. It rebuilds the clip list from kept intervals — auto-import, `drop_range`, `restore_full_timeline` — and none of those produce clips whose media continues across the join. I extrapolated a use case from a test fixture. So the guard is the two conditions and nothing else: same media, same crop, and the left clip's media timecode ENDS where the right one's BEGINS. Media timecodes, never ruler ones — clips are always laid back to back here, so every neighbouring pair touches on the ruler and that says nothing at all. `insertion.ts` is now completely agnostic about being undone. It cuts a clip and never learns how the pieces go back together; delete, drag away, undo all heal through the same rule. Three fixtures encoded the forbidden state and are corrected to say what they meant — the same ruler layout with media timecodes that do not meet. Every asserted millisecond is unchanged, because the anchors are relative. The accepted cost is pinned as its own test rather than left in a comment: an ordinary clip deleted from between two halves joins them too. Nothing is lost when it does.
An insertion's length IS its text, so a correction has to reach the clip and the file. It reached neither: `retextGeneratedClip` widened the source window and left `timelineEndSec` alone, and `resequenceClips` takes a clip's length from its ruler extent whenever that extent is non-zero — so the window grew, the length did not, and the clip went on playing the old duration while the film never got longer. Zeroing the ruler extent is how `setClipSourceRange` already asks for "take the length from the source window". Same idiom, same funnel. Pinned through `setDocumentWordText`, which is the function the transcript pane actually calls, rather than through the operation underneath it — the bug was in what the pane's edit produced, and a test on the inner function would have passed while the app stayed broken. Also: a clip too narrow to hold its own controls now lets them out. An insertion of a few tenths of a second on a half-minute timeline is a handful of pixels wide, and no arrangement fits a button inside that; while it is SELECTED the pencil and the bin step outside the box and float over what follows. Selection-only, so nothing is littered, and no layout above or below has to make room. Not visually verified — worth a look.
…eparately The path is not directional, so the fix covered it — but "the clip grew" and "the clip shrank back" are two assertions and only one of them was on the record.
The same move as the recording lane, in the coordinates a take has. The take splits in two and the generated audio goes between the halves; both keep the file seconds they always had, and the right one's `offsetMs` advances by exactly what the left consumed — the repair `anchorAudioTrackFragments` already does for a take spanning two clips. The lane the caret was in is the only thing that differs between the two: a clip in the film, a fragment in the take. `insertDocumentWord` picks by asking whether the asset is spoken by a take or played by a clip, and everything downstream is the paths that already existed. Two rules were settled before this and both are respected, and pinned: - A take insertion does NOT lengthen the film. The clips decide the length. It pushes the take's later content later inside the same timeline, and what that pushes past the last frame is clamped at export, as it always was. - A film insertion does not touch a take. The clips under it become three, so the take is stored as three fragments — that is ventilation, and the take itself is one pill of the same length holding the same audio. Undoing it is the audio lane's half of the clip list's invariant: contiguous pills of one file whose timecodes continue across the join are one take, folded back in `reanchorAudioTracks` — at the PILL level, before ventilation, because ventilation deliberately produces fragments that meet and whose offsets continue. One thing the clip lane gets for free and this had to do by hand: a track lane is not re-laid, pills hold absolute ruler positions, so nothing closes the gap the removal leaves. Only the half the insertion pushed comes back, by the amount it was pushed — taking it back has to be as narrow as making it was. The first version left a 150ms hole and the halves never met; the round-trip test is what caught it. The transcript pane's voice-over lane was refused outright, citing `insertRangeSchema` — a schema deleted in the reset. Gate lifted. Unit-tested only; not yet exercised in the app.
`takeProgramme` still carried the machinery of the first insertion attempt: a hold the source clock parked in, a boundary resolver that could not map insertions up front, a pass counter and a `maxPasses` guard against a hang the two-force loop could produce. None of it had any input left — the insertion half was deleted in the reset — so the loop only ever handled cuts, with four passes budgeted per cut for the passes that no longer exist. A cut advances both cursors. That is the only thing left, so the source clock is a plain shift of the raw one and the walk is a subtraction: iterate the cuts, play up to each, mute through it. No cursor pair, no pass budget, no termination argument to make. Its header, and the comments in `cues.ts` and `aggregated-transcript.ts`, still explained the model in terms of a pause being a held CLIP frame and of `insertRanges`, a schema deleted in the reset. Reasoning that describes a design the code no longer has is worse than none: it is the thing a reader trusts. Rewritten to say what is actually true, which is simpler. 93 lines out, 38 in.
The DEV gate sat on one gesture — the typing/paste that opens the insertion editor in the transcript pane. Creating an insertion is genuinely unreachable in a release: that gesture is the only caller of `insertDocumentWord`, there is no agent operation for it, and the branch is folded out of the bundle at build time. What was not gated: retyping an insertion that already exists. Correcting a transcribed word is a shipped feature, and the same path retexts a generated one — resizing the mire clip and asking the save for a new mire file, in a release. Reachable by anyone opening a project that was edited with a dev build. Both funnels now read one named flag in the shell, where every renderer path reaches the document, so an entry point added later is refused by default instead of by whoever remembers the gesture gate. Deleting an inserted word stays open on purpose: getting generated media OUT of a release build is the behaviour we want. Verified on a real production build rather than asserted: the dev-only code references are absent from the bundle.
…elimination The comment claimed the DEV branch is absent from the release bundle. True today, and beside the point: dropping the body is the minifier's optimisation, not the protection. The guard returns early on its own, whatever the bundler decides — which is what a reader has to know before touching it.
…re happens Four `import.meta.env.DEV` expressions across two files were saying one thing, and three of them were written for the model that no longer exists. One definition now, `insertionsEnabled`, with the reasoning in one place and the upgrade path named once. Deleted rather than rewritten: `helpInsert` was a second, longer copy of the hint beside it, promising that an inserted word "reaches the captions and leaves the film alone" — true of the first attempt, false since an insertion became a clip. Thirteen translations of a wrong sentence, gone; `editingHintDev` already said the true half. A function, not a constant, and that is not cosmetic. As a module-level const it is captured at import, which silently turned `vi.stubEnv` into a no-op — the existing test proving a release refuses the gesture went from passing to failing to passing-by-not-running. Read at the moment of the gesture instead, and the check can actually drive it. The retext half is now refused where the affordance is, not only after the fact: a release does not open the editor on an amber word at all. Both directions pinned, and both fall over when the flag is forced true.
Word insertion is gated on a dev-only flag, and that gate lives in the renderer. The chat runs in the main process, where it does not exist — and `setWordText` calls `setDocumentWordText`, which dispatches to the retext of generated media when the asset is one of ours. A release could therefore resize a mire clip and ask the save for new generated media, by asking the assistant. Refused unconditionally rather than mirroring the flag: this tool exists to fix a name the transcriber misheard, and an inserted word was never heard. The agent has no business authoring generated media in a dev build either. Found auditing what the branches we are about to close still contain, not by looking for it.
- `removeModifier`'s refusal listed zoom / speed / annotation / full-camera while the lookup above it had already gained audio. The code and its own error message disagreed. - Space on an audio pill selected it AND toggled playback: the shell binds Space on `window`, above React's root, so stopping the synthetic event alone is not enough. Same fix the region pill two hundred lines down already had. - `patchAudioTrack` spreads three payload keys onto every fragment and the test covered two. `loop` is the one a half-applied patch breaks loudest — a take looping on one fragment and not the next stops mid-sentence at the clip boundary. - `slipAudioOffsetMs` guards `undefined` as its own branch and the test only had `null` and zero. An asset whose duration was never probed carries no key at all. - fr: `faire défiler` reads as scrolling; the gesture is a slip. `déplacer`. - ko-KR: a particle attaches to the word before it — `Alt를`, not `Alt 를`.
…capability **Generic reads no longer grant a read capability (CWE-200).** `approveReadableMediaPath` approves any existing file with a media extension. Behind a picker or a document load that is the point; behind `read-binary-file`, `read-file-chunk`, `get-readable-file-info` and `get-audio-peaks` it meant the renderer could name any media file on the machine and be handed its bytes. Those four now SPEND an approval instead of granting one. Granting happens in exactly three places: the recordings directory, a file the user picked, and the assets a loaded project declares. That third one did not exist — the allow-list comment has always said "picker or project load", and project load never approved anything; the generic auto-approval was quietly standing in for it. `DocumentService` now announces every document it hands out, after the relink so the paths are the ones the renderer will actually ask for. **Cancellation reaches ffmpeg.** `cancel()` bumped an epoch the CHUNK loop reads between chunks, so a cancel during extraction left ffmpeg decoding a file that can be hours long with nothing to stop it. The extraction now holds an `AbortController` that `cancel()` aborts, and clears it only if it is still its own — a cancel that starts a new run must not have its controller cleared by the old one unwinding. **A capped track keeps its fade-out at its real end.** `overlay_track_pcm` measured the ramps against the decoded length and its own comment said why that was right — but `mix_external_tracks` caps the decode window at the room left in the programme BEFORE decoding, so the "decoded length" was already the truncated one. A track running past the end faded out at the truncation point instead of being cut off mid-ramp. The uncapped length is passed through now. Mutation-checked: reverting the envelope length fails the new test. **The tooltip's ref reaches the trigger.** `Tooltip` is a `forwardRef` handing its ref to `TooltipTrigger`, which was a plain function component — on React 18 that drops it silently. Same `forwardRef` shape as `PopoverTrigger`, which the comment already pointed at.
The branch was rebased onto main rather than merged, because the repository allows only "Rebase and merge" — a merge commit makes that button refuse, which is exactly what it did. Replaying 112 commits over 71 is not the same operation as merging them once, and it showed: a handful of files came out short of the tree that was actually tested. Three transcript-pane test fixtures lost the word-edit props, `settings.json` lost `captions.transcribe` in all thirteen locales, and the three export pipelines and the two panes each lost a line or two. None of it would have failed loudly — the tests that cover them are the ones whose fixtures were trimmed. So the tree is put back to the one that was verified, file by file, and only for the files this branch actually owns. `.github/workflows/build-whisper-stt.yml` is left as main has it: the branch does not own it, and there the rebase was the one that was right. Verified rather than asserted: the working tree now differs from the merge that ran the full suite by that one workflow file and nothing else.

Summary
Two features that ended up on one branch, and the integration branch is now the only PR left standing for both.
@Beetix)@olamide226)Merging this lands #502, #526, #561 (audio) and #540, #570 (transcript words). All five are closed against it. #578 was declined on design grounds, explained on the PR.
Part 1 — imported audio
Rebasing onto Ola's work is what makes the authorship on
mainreflect who wrote it: he did the pivot he was asked for on 2026-08-29 and opened #561 on 09-01, while a second implementation of the same feature was landing in parallel.What the base already does
Imported audio is a clip-anchored region on voiceover and music lanes, so a track travels with its clip through reorder, trim and delete. Fragments of one track share a
trackId, andanchorAudioTrackFragmentsadvances each fragment'soffsetMsso a bed spanning a cut does not restart at it. Voiceover recording against the timeline, in a docked bar rather than a modal, with the timeline's own tracks silenced for the take. Fades, loop and mute, applied by an envelope inoverlay_track_pcmand mirrored in the preview through one sharedresolveFadeSecs. Native mixing on all three platforms.Read #561 for the full account, including the correctness work found while testing it on a device — a track inside a trimmed stretch still playing, speed regions dragging audio with them, the ±12 dB clamp on per-track gain.

The freeze at editor open was never the inference — it wasextractMono16kFromVideoUrlrunning in the renderer: whole file into memory, anarrayBuffer()copy, aslice(0)copy, then a resample loop on the UI thread. ~86 MB of decoded float32 for that same bed, against 15.7 MB now that ffmpeg does it in the main process.feat(timeline): show what an audio pill crops, and let it slip. A dimmed ghost of the rest of the file around the pill, anin → out / lengthreadout while an edge is pulled, andAlt-drag to slip: the media slides under a span that does not move, at a rate derived from the file rather than the timeline.Part 2 — transcript words
Double-click a word to correct it, Backspace to cut it from the film, type between two words to add one. The document layer is @sunyuchenyaobo's (
a6c16a4e,fbce0ca9,c0012785, unchanged and under his name, including the non-BMP Han edge case).An insertion is a clip
This is the part that was rebuilt from nothing, and the reason is worth stating: the first attempt modelled an added word as a pause — timeline time bought inside a clip, with the picture holding a frame. That broke every mapping in the codebase at once, because they all rest on one property: a clip is an uninterrupted shift between its source seconds and the ruler.
timelineMap, the nativesetActiveClip, the exporter, the DOM player and the caption path each assume it. Teaching them all about interruptions was eight special cases and still one bug.So an insertion is a clip:
The generated clip has its own asset, its own file and its own one-word transcript, so the pane, the captions, the cue highlight, the native decoder swap and the exporter all read it through the paths they already had. It is a clip like any other: movable, croppable, editable, deletable, with no code of its own for any of that.
Undoing it is an invariant, not an operation. Two adjacent clips of the same media, the same crop, whose media timecodes meet, are one clip. Deleting the generated clip or dragging it away both heal the cut, and
insertion.tsnever learns how. The same rule has an audio half: contiguous pills of one take whose file timecodes continue are one take.Voice-overs get the same shape. An insertion in a take is a track fragment. Two rules settled deliberately and pinned by tests: a take insertion does not lengthen the film, and a film insertion does not touch a take.
The generated media is a test pattern
Until there is TTS and frame generation, an insertion plays a mire over noise — real media, in the right place, for the right length, but nobody says the sentence. Deliberately not a held frame: a held frame is indistinguishable on screen from a decoder stuck at the end of a clip, which is the bug it hid for three rounds.
So the gesture is DEV-only. One flag,
insertionsEnabled, read where the gesture happens: the pane does not offer it, the shell refuses again where every renderer path reaches the document, and the chat'ssetWordTextrefuses to rewrite a word nobody said — that one runs in the main process, where the renderer's flag does not exist. A release can still delete an insertion, which is the direction we want.Related issues
Closes #350. Supersedes #502, #526, #561, #540, #570. Refs #560.

mainmoved 71 commits under this branch, includingdd243e7c, which deleted the v3 media pane the audio-import button was added to in this branch's first commit. Replaying 110 commits would mean re-authoring that UI into states that never existed, which is what a reviewer would then read. Twenty files conflicted; none of them was resolved by taking ours wholesale — the per-asset transcription busy label, theloading-modelphase and its byte counters, and the Linux muxer refactor all came frommainand are all in.Not done: the export smoke test on real macOS/Windows per AGENTS.md. #561 was built and exercised on macOS (arm64); everything since was written and run on Windows. Linux has not been exercised at runtime.
