15 hours	feat: Add Gantt chart visualization to seq_compiler	skal
	Implements ASCII Gantt chart generation for timeline debugging and visualization. ## New Feature - Added --gantt=<output.txt> flag to seq_compiler - Generates visual timeline showing sequences and effects on time axis - Displays sequence priority, effect priority, and time ranges - Shows explicit sequence end times with [END=...] markers - Detects and warns about invalid time ranges (end < start) ## Usage ```bash ./build/seq_compiler assets/demo.seq src/generated/timeline.cc --gantt=timeline.txt ``` ## Chart Format - Time axis in seconds with 5-second markers - Sequences shown as solid bars (█) - Effects shown as shaded bars (▓) with sequence background (·) - Labels include start/end times and priorities - Legend and documentation at chart end ## Example Output ``` Time (s): 0 5 10 15 20 25 30 \|----\|----\|----\|----\|----\|----\|----\| SEQ@0s [pri=0] ████████████████████████████████ (0-30s) FlashEffect [pri=4] ▓▓·························· (0-1s) HeptagonEffect [pri=0] ▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓················ (0-10s) ``` ## Benefits - Visualize sequence overlap and layering - Identify timing conflicts and gaps - Verify effect priorities render in correct order - Debug invalid time ranges - Plan demo choreography visually ## Files Changed - tools/seq_compiler.cc: Added generate_gantt_chart() function - assets/demo.seq: Added usage documentation - .gitignore: Exclude generated demo_timeline.txt This debugging tool significantly improves timeline development workflow by providing visual feedback on sequence and effect timing.
17 hours	feat: Optional sequence end times and comprehensive effect documentation	skal
	This milestone implements several key enhancements to the sequencing system and developer documentation: ## Optional Sequence End Times (New Feature) - Added support for explicit sequence termination via [time] syntax - Example: SEQUENCE 0 0 [30.0] forcefully ends all effects at 30 seconds - Updated seq_compiler.cc to parse optional [time] parameter with brackets - Added end_time_ field to Sequence class (default -1.0 = no explicit end) - Modified update_active_list() to check sequence end time and deactivate all effects when reached - Fully backward compatible - existing sequences work unchanged ## Comprehensive Effect Documentation (demo.seq) - Documented all effect constructor parameters (standard: device, queue, format) - Added runtime parameter documentation (time, beat, intensity, aspect_ratio) - Created detailed effect catalog with specific behaviors: * Scene effects: HeptagonEffect, ParticlesEffect, Hybrid3DEffect, FlashCubeEffect * Post-process effects: GaussianBlurEffect, SolarizeEffect, ChromaAberrationEffect, ThemeModulationEffect, FadeEffect, FlashEffect - Added examples section showing common usage patterns - Documented exact parameter behaviors (e.g., blur pulsates 0.5x-2.5x, flash triggers at intensity > 0.7, theme cycles every 8 seconds) ## Code Quality & Verification - Audited all hardcoded 1280x720 dimensions throughout codebase - Verified all shaders use uniforms.resolution and uniforms.aspect_ratio - Confirmed Effect::resize() properly updates width_/height_ members - No issues found - dimension handling is fully dynamic and robust ## Files Changed - tools/seq_compiler.cc: Parse [end_time], generate set_end_time() calls - src/gpu/effect.h: Added end_time_, set_end_time(), get_end_time() - src/gpu/effect.cc: Check sequence end time in update_active_list() - assets/demo.seq: Comprehensive syntax and effect documentation - Generated files updated (timeline.cc, assets_data.cc, music_data.cc) This work establishes a more flexible sequencing system and provides developers with clear documentation for authoring demo timelines. handoff(Claude): Optional sequence end times implemented, effect documentation complete, dimension handling verified. Ready for next phase of development.
3 days	update the melody a bit	skal

4 days	feat(gpu): Integrate bumpy 3D renderer into main demo	skal
	- Added depth buffer support to MainSequence. - Implemented Hybrid3DEffect for the main timeline. - Fixed effect initialization order in MainSequence. - Ensured depth-stencil compatibility for all scene effects. - Updated demo sequence with 3D elements and post-processing.
5 days	feat: Multi-pass rendering architecture and effect stubs	skal
	Implements a post-processing pipeline using offscreen framebuffers. Adds stubs for MovingEllipse, ParticleSpray, GaussianBlur, Solarize, Distort, and ChromaAberration effects. Updates MainSequence to orchestrate the scene pass and post-processing chain.
5 days	feat: Implement Sequence Compiler for data-driven choreography	skal
	Adds a 'seq_compiler' tool that converts a text-based timeline (assets/demo.seq) into a generated C++ file. This allows editing effect sequences and timing without modifying engine code. Replaces manual sequence creation with a generated 'LoadTimeline' function.
