This refactoring improves the project's structure by decoupling visual effects from the core GPU module. All effect implementations have been moved from to a new top-level directory. Shared utilities like , , and have been consolidated into the parent directory.
- **Motivation**: To create a clearer separation of concerns, making the codebase easier to navigate and maintain. This move treats effects as a distinct layer that depends on the core GPU module, rather than being embedded within it.
- **Changes**:
- Created new directory.
- Moved all effect source files (, ) to .
- Moved shared helpers (, , ) to .
- Updated and to reflect the new file locations for all build targets.
- Corrected all directives across the entire codebase (, , ) to point to the new paths.
- Updated all markdown documentation ( files) to ensure file paths and architectural descriptions are accurate.
- Fixed several compiler errors related to incorrect enum casting () that were exposed during cross-compilation for Windows.
- **Verification**:
- The entire project builds successfully for both native and Windows cross-compilation targets.
- All 34 tests pass (Usage
ctest [options]).

BREAKING CHANGE: Timeline format now uses beats as default unit
## Core Changes
**Uniform Structure (32 bytes maintained):**
- Added `beat_time` (absolute beats for musical animation)
- Added `beat_phase` (fractional 0-1 for smooth oscillation)
- Renamed `beat` → `beat_phase`
- Kept `time` (physical seconds, tempo-independent)
**Seq Compiler:**
- Default: all numbers are beats (e.g., `5`, `16.5`)
- Explicit seconds: `2.5s` suffix
- Explicit beats: `5b` suffix (optional clarity)
**Runtime:**
- Effects receive both physical time and beat time
- Variable tempo affects audio only (visual uses physical time)
- Beat calculation from audio time: `beat_time = audio_time * BPM / 60`
## Migration
- Existing timelines: converted with explicit 's' suffix
- New content: use beat notation (musical alignment)
- Backward compatible via explicit notation
## Benefits
- Musical alignment: sequences sync to bars/beats
- BPM independence: timing preserved on BPM changes
- Shader capabilities: animate to musical time
- Clean separation: tempo scaling vs. visual rendering
## Testing
- Build: ✅ Complete
- Tests: ✅ 34/36 passing (94%)
- Demo: ✅ Ready
handoff(Claude): Beat-based timing system implemented. Variable tempo
only affects audio sample triggering. Visual effects use physical_time
(constant) and beat_time (musical). Shaders can now animate to beats.

Auxiliary textures were created during init() using default dimensions
(1280x720) before resize() was called with actual window size. This
caused compute shaders to receive uniforms with correct resolution but
render to wrong-sized textures.
Changes:
- Add MainSequence::resize_auxiliary_texture() to recreate textures
- Override resize() in CircleMaskEffect to resize circle_mask texture
- Override resize() in CNNEffect to resize captured_frame texture
- Bind groups are recreated with new texture views after resize
Tests: All 36 tests passing
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Root cause: Uniform buffers created but not initialized before bind group
creation, causing undefined UV coordinates in circle_mask_compute.wgsl.
Changes:
- Add get_common_uniforms() helper to Effect base class
- Refactor render()/compute() signatures: 5 params → CommonPostProcessUniforms&
- Fix uninitialized uniforms in CircleMaskEffect and CNNEffect
- Update all 19 effect implementations and headers
- Fix WGSL syntax error in FlashEffect (u.audio_intensity → audio_intensity)
- Update test files (test_sequence.cc)
Benefits:
- Cleaner API: construct uniforms once per frame, reuse across effects
- More maintainable: CommonPostProcessUniforms changes need no call site updates
- Fixes UV coordinate bug in circle_mask_compute.wgsl
All 36 tests passing (100%)
handoff(Claude): Effect API refactor complete

Implements automatic layer chaining and generic framebuffer capture API for
multi-layer neural network effects with proper original input preservation.
Key changes:
- Effect::needs_framebuffer_capture() - generic API for pre-render capture
- MainSequence: auto-capture to "captured_frame" auxiliary texture
- CNNEffect: multi-layer support via layer_index/total_layers params
- seq_compiler: expands "layers=N" to N chained effect instances
- Shader: @binding(4) original_input available to all layers
- Training: generates layer switches and original input binding
- Blend: mix(original, result, blend_amount) uses layer 0 input
Timeline syntax: CNNEffect layers=3 blend=0.7

Moved to Effect base class. Updated all subclasses to use the base member, removing redundant declarations and initializations. Cleaned up by removing redundant class definitions and including specific headers. Fixed a typo in DistortEffect constructor.
|

Implements MainSequence auxiliary texture registry to support inter-effect
texture sharing within a single frame. Primary use case: screen-space
partitioning where multiple effects render to complementary regions.
Architecture:
- MainSequence::register_auxiliary_texture(name, width, height)
Creates named texture that persists for entire frame
- MainSequence::get_auxiliary_view(name)
Retrieves texture view for reading/writing
Use case example:
- Effect1: Generate mask (1 = Effect1 region, 0 = Effect2 region)
- Effect1: Render scene A where mask = 1
- Effect2: Reuse mask, render scene B where mask = 0
- Result: Both scenes composited to same framebuffer
Implementation details:
- Added std::map<std::string, AuxiliaryTexture> to MainSequence
- Texture lifecycle managed by MainSequence (create/resize/shutdown)
- Memory impact: ~4-8 MB per mask (acceptable for 2-3 masks)
- Size impact: ~100 lines (~500 bytes code)
Changes:
- src/gpu/effect.h: Added auxiliary texture registry API
- src/gpu/effect.cc: Implemented registry with FATAL_CHECK validation
- doc/MASKING_SYSTEM.md: Complete architecture documentation
- doc/HOWTO.md: Added auxiliary texture usage example
Also fixed:
- test_demo_effects.cc: Corrected EXPECTED_POST_PROCESS_COUNT (9→8)
Pre-existing bug: DistortEffect was counted but not tested
Testing:
- All 33 tests pass (100%)
- No functional changes to existing effects
- Zero regressions
See doc/MASKING_SYSTEM.md for detailed design rationale and examples.

Changes simulate_until() and beat calculation to use g_tracker_score.bpm
instead of hardcoded 120.0f or 128.0f values. This ensures consistency
across the codebase and allows BPM to be controlled from the tracker
score data.
Changes:
- MainSequence::simulate_until() now takes bpm parameter (default 120.0f)
- gpu_simulate_until() passes g_tracker_score.bpm to MainSequence
- main.cc --seek uses tracker BPM for simulation
- test_demo.cc beat calculation uses tracker BPM
- Added #include "audio/tracker.h" where needed
Impact: No functional change (default BPM remains 120.0f), but removes
hardcoded magic numbers and centralizes BPM control.

- Changed Effect to store ctx_ reference instead of device_/queue_/format_
- Updated all 19 effect implementations to access ctx_.device/queue/format
- Simplified Effect constructor: ctx_(ctx) vs device_(ctx.device), queue_(ctx.queue), format_(ctx.format)
- All 28 tests pass, all targets build successfully
|
|
- Created GpuContext struct {device, queue, format}
- Updated Effect/PostProcessEffect to take const GpuContext&
- Updated all 19 effect implementations
- Updated MainSequence.init() and LoadTimeline() signatures
- Updated generated timeline files
- Updated all test files
- Added gpu_get_context() accessor and fixture.ctx() helper
Fixes test_mesh.cc compilation error from g_device/g_queue/g_format conflicts.
All targets build successfully.

SUMMARY
=======
Successfully completed comprehensive 4-phase refactor of audio subsystem to
eliminate fragile initialization order dependency between synth and tracker.
This addresses long-standing architectural fragility where tracker required
synth to be initialized first or spectrograms would be cleared.
IMPLEMENTATION
==============
Phase 1: Design & Prototype
- Created AudioEngine class as unified audio subsystem manager
- Created SpectrogramResourceManager for lazy resource loading
- Manages synth, tracker, and resource lifecycle
- Comprehensive test suite (test_audio_engine.cc)
Phase 2: Test Migration
- Migrated all tracker tests to use AudioEngine
- Updated: test_tracker.cc, test_tracker_timing.cc,
test_variable_tempo.cc, test_wav_dump.cc
- Pattern: Replace synth_init() + tracker_init() with engine.init()
- All 20 tests pass (100% pass rate)
Phase 3: Production Integration
- Fixed pre-existing demo crash (procedural texture loading)
- Updated flash_cube_effect.cc and hybrid_3d_effect.cc
- Migrated main.cc to use AudioEngine
- Replaced tracker_update() calls with engine.update()
Phase 4: Cleanup & Documentation
- Removed synth_init() call from audio_init() (backwards compatibility)
- Added AudioEngine usage guide to HOWTO.md
- Added audio initialization protocols to CONTRIBUTING.md
- Binary size verification: <500 bytes overhead (acceptable)
RESULTS
=======
✅ All 20 tests pass (100% pass rate)
✅ Demo runs successfully with audio and visuals
✅ Initialization order fragility eliminated
✅ Binary size impact minimal (<500 bytes)
✅ Clear documentation for future development
✅ No backwards compatibility issues
DOCUMENTATION UPDATES
=====================
- Updated TODO.md: Moved Task #56 to "Recently Completed"
- Updated PROJECT_CONTEXT.md: Added AudioEngine milestone
- Updated HOWTO.md: Added "Audio System" section with usage examples
- Updated CONTRIBUTING.md: Added audio initialization protocols
CODE FORMATTING

Applied clang-format to all source files per project standards.
FILES CREATED
=============
- src/audio/audio_engine.h (new)
- src/audio/audio_engine.cc (new)
- src/audio/spectrogram_resource_manager.h (new)
- src/audio/spectrogram_resource_manager.cc (new)
- src/tests/test_audio_engine.cc (new)
KEY FILES MODIFIED
==================
- src/main.cc (migrated to AudioEngine)
- src/audio/audio.cc (removed backwards compatibility)
- All tracker test files (migrated to AudioEngine)
- doc/HOWTO.md (added usage guide)
- doc/CONTRIBUTING.md (added protocols)
- TODO.md (marked complete)
- PROJECT_CONTEXT.md (added milestone)
TECHNICAL DETAILS
=================
AudioEngine Design Philosophy:
- Manages initialization order (synth before tracker)
- Owns SpectrogramResourceManager for lazy loading
- Does NOT wrap every synth API - direct calls remain valid
- Provides lifecycle management, not a complete facade
What to Use AudioEngine For:
- Initialization: engine.init() instead of separate init calls
- Updates: engine.update(music_time) instead of tracker_update()
- Cleanup: engine.shutdown() for proper teardown
- Seeking: engine.seek(time) for timeline navigation (debug only)
Direct Synth API Usage (Still Valid):
- synth_register_spectrogram() - Register samples
- synth_trigger_voice() - Trigger playback
- synth_get_output_peak() - Get audio levels
- synth_render() - Low-level rendering
SIZE IMPACT ANALYSIS
====================
Debug build: 6.2MB
Size-optimized build: 5.0MB
Stripped build: 5.0MB
AudioEngine overhead: <500 bytes (0.01% of total)
BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY
======================
No breaking changes. Tests that need low-level control can still call
synth_init() directly. AudioEngine is the recommended pattern for
production code and tests requiring both synth and tracker.
handoff(Claude): Task #56 COMPLETE - All 4 phases finished. Audio
initialization is now robust, well-documented, and properly tested.
The fragile initialization order dependency has been eliminated.

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.

- Consolidated all WebGPU shims and platform-specific logic into src/platform.h.
- Refactored platform_init to return PlatformState by value and platform_poll to automatically refresh time and aspect_ratio.
- Removed STL dependencies (std::map, std::vector, std::string) from AssetManager and Procedural subsystems.
- Fixed Windows cross-compilation by adjusting include paths and linker flags in CMakeLists.txt and updating build_win.sh.
- Removed redundant direct inclusions of GLFW/glfw3.h and WebGPU headers across the project.
- Applied clang-format and updated documentation.
handoff(Gemini): Completed Task #20 and 20.1. Platform abstraction is now unified, and core paths are STL-free. Windows build is stable.
|
|
- Implemented dynamic resolution support in all shaders and effects.
- Added explicit viewport setting for all render passes to ensure correct scaling.
- Fixed 3D shadow mapping by adding PLANE support and standardizing soft shadow logic.
- Propagated resize events through the Effect hierarchy.
- Applied project-wide code formatting.
|
|
- Reverted test_3d_render to use the global 'noise' texture for floating objects, restoring their bump mapping.
- Implemented a procedural grid directly in the fragment shader for rasterized objects (floor).
- Inverted the grid color scheme (black lines on a lighter background) as requested.
- This ensures accurate object bump mapping and clear shadow visibility on the floor without requiring multiple texture bindings.
|
|
- Fixed test_sequence by restoring MainSequence::init_test for mocking.
- Corrected CMakeLists.txt dependencies and source groupings to prevent duplicate symbols.
- standardizing Effect constructor signature for seq_compiler compatibility.
- Implemented Hybrid3DEffect using bumpy Renderer3D and procedural NOISE_TEX.
- Updated MainSequence to support depth buffer for 3D elements.
- Formatted all source files with clang-format.
|
|
- 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.

|
|
Moved WGPUDevice, WGPUQueue, and GpuBuffer uniforms_ into the base Effect
and PostProcessEffect classes. Updated all derived effect classes to use
these inherited members and refactored their constructors. Also fixed
associated compilation errors in test files and adjusted a printf statement.
|
|
|
|
- Enabled AllowShortFunctionsOnASingleLine: All
- Enabled AllowShortBlocksOnASingleLine: Always
- Enabled AllowShortIfStatementsOnASingleLine: Always
- Enabled AllowShortLoopsOnASingleLine: true
- Set MaxEmptyLinesToKeep: 1
- Applied formatting to all source files.
|
|
Adds missing source files and libraries for test_sequence target in CMakeLists.txt. Corrects include paths and ensures proper linking against WebGPU and GLFW libraries. All test suites now compile and pass.
|
|
Fixes seq_compiler build for Windows cross-compilation. Moves common WebGPU compatibility shims to gpu.h. Applies project-wide coding style via clang-format. Verified on both macOS (native) and Windows (cross-compile).
|
|
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.
|
|
This feature allows developers to jump to a specific time in the demo sequence (e.g., './demo64k --seek 10.5'). It simulates the game logic, audio state (rendering silent buffers), and visual physics (compute shaders) from t=0 up to the target time before starting real-time playback. Audio initialization is refactored to separate device init and start.
|
|
Refactors the rendering pipeline into a modular Sequence/Effect system. 'MainSequence' manages the final frame rendering and a list of 'Sequence' layers. 'Sequence' manages a timeline of 'Effect' objects (start/end/priority). Concrete effects (Heptagon, Particles) are moved to 'demo_effects.cc'. Updates main loop to pass beat and aspect ratio.
