- The canvas Undo/Redo buttons now also undo/redo step deletion
(single or multi-select), restoring the step's data, images, and
position in the order. Backed by a new step:restore IPC call and
GuideStore.restoreStep().
- Remove "Finish capture session" from the capture menu. The
top-right recording bar in the guide editor is now the only place
to start/stop recording, with its toggle relabeled
"Start recording" / "Stop recording".
The per-annotation list cards and the "Copy this style to every other
... annotation" text/tooltips were still showing raw type ids (rect,
arrow, etc). Use ANNOTATION_TYPE_LABELS for these too.
The annotation editor's "Type" select used the raw lowercase type id
(e.g. "rect") as its label. Add an ANNOTATION_TYPE_LABELS map so it
shows "Rectangle", "Tooltip", "Number", etc. instead.
Exporters now interleave text/code/table blocks in the same order they
appear in the editor's Blocks panel (via a shared stepContentGroups
helper) instead of grouping by kind, so exported docs match the guide
editor's ordering.
selectStep() now also refreshes the Focused View controls and Blocks
panel (previously only done by renderAll), so switching steps no longer
leaves the previous step's blocks/focused-view sliders on screen. It
also flushes any pending edits on the outgoing step before switching, so
a later guide-wide reload (e.g. applying an annotation style to the
whole guide) can't discard unsaved text-block edits on other steps.
- Description editor: blockquotes get a left accent line and muted color so
it's clear when typing in "quote mode" (matches the existing active Quote
toolbar button highlight).
- Editor block cards: each text block's left border is colored by its level
(info/success/warn/error) so Note/Tip/Warning/Important are distinguishable
at a glance.
- PDF/HTML/DOCX exports: callouts now get a level-specific accent color and
tinted background/shading (blue/green/amber/red), instead of all looking
identical except for the label text.

Clicking Link no longer pops up "Link text"/"Link URL" dialogs; it
inserts [Text](Link) (or [selectedText](Link)) directly so the
placeholders can be edited in place.
- Enter now starts a new <p> (defaultParagraphSeparator) so line breaks
in the description box show up as line breaks in HTML/Markdown/Confluence
exports; htmlToMarkdown also handles <div>-separated paragraphs.
- Clicking Quote while already in a blockquote toggles back to a paragraph.
- Toolbar buttons (Bold, Italic, Bullet, Number, Quote) turn blue to
reflect the formatting state at the current cursor/selection.
Previously this wrapped the selection in a real <a> tag via
createLink. Now it inserts literal [text](url) markdown syntax,
using the selection as the link text or prompting for it if nothing
is selected.
Replaces the number-entry prompt with a scrollable side panel (so
large guides don't overflow the screen) listing every eligible step;
clicking one immediately re-parents the step. Context menus now
support submenu items in general via contextMenu().
Lets a step be re-parented under another step by entering that step's
displayed number, moving it (with its own substeps) to the end of the
target's substeps and updating the numbering accordingly.
Clicking Snapshot now opens a named-prompt dialog (matching the app's
modal styling) and flushes the current step/guide first, so the
snapshot reflects unsaved edits and is easy to identify later.
For linked guides, "Save now" now also writes back to the linked
.sfgz archive (reporting a lock conflict if another session holds it),
making the dedicated link/share button in the Guide panel redundant.
The toolbar Share button and More > Linked guide… menu still cover
one-off exports and archive management.
The guide panel's link button was a dead disabled control for local
guides. It now shares the guide as a .sfgz archive instead, while
linked guides keep the existing archive-management dialog.
Renamed "Style → step/guide" to "This step"/"Entire guide" under a
heading naming the annotation type, with hover text spelling out that
it overwrites every matching annotation's style in that scope.
panX/panY now represent 0..1 fractions of the pannable range rather
than absolute image positions, so the slider's full travel always
covers edge-to-edge regardless of zoom level. Pan Y is inverted so
sliding right moves the view up. Updated both the editor canvas and
core/raster.js export so they stay in sync.

The annotation canvas now renders as a viewport into the focused-view
crop region, matching what core/raster.js produces on export. Sliders
update the canvas live; annotation data stays in full-image-normalized
coordinates and remains correctly positioned, sized, and editable.

The remaining 'captured slightly after the click' reports came from the
fresh-shot fallback, which grabs the screen when the click is processed
(after it). The previous lead change made that fallback *more* likely: a
frame now had to be >=120ms before the click to qualify, so on machines
where the capture stream can't always keep a frame that old buffered, more
clicks fell through to the post-click shot.
Make the click-lead a two-tier preference instead of a hard gate in
selectFrameForClick:
1. newest frame captured at least leadMs before the click (ideal margin), else
2. newest frame captured before the click at all.
Only when no pre-click frame exists does the caller fresh-shot. leadMs is
threaded through the stream backend to the worker so both selection paths
agree. Verified end to end: frames land ~120-170ms before each click,
markers stay at 0.00%, and the 8-click burst still saves all 8.

Real-world recording now saves every click with exact markers; the only
remaining nit was screenshots feeling a touch late. Add a configurable
click-lead (capture.clickLeadMs, default 120ms) that targets the screen
just before the hook timestamp, and tighten the stream sampling cadence to
50ms so a frame near that target always exists. Verified end to end: frames
now land ~120-160ms before the click (was 25-57ms), markers stay at 0.00%
offset, and the 8-click burst still saves all 8.
Also document the milestone in docs/CHANGELOG.md and remove an accidental
paste of Gitea commit-page text from it.

Root cause of 'I clicked many times but only got two screenshots':
finishing/pausing a session called backend.stop(), which cancelled every
in-flight frame request to null. Clicks whose PNG had not finished
encoding yet were then dropped — only the first few survived.
Fixes:
- Stream backend now *drains* on stop: it stops accepting new requests but
keeps the worker alive until frames already selected for queued clicks
finish encoding. stop({ immediate: true }) keeps the old abandon-now
behavior for an unhealthy worker.
- Two-stage worker reply: a fast 'frame-selected' ack pins the pairing and
proves liveness; the slow PNG payload follows. A slow encode (seconds on
software-rendered hosts) is no longer mistaken for a dead worker, which
had been forcing the post-click fresh-shot fallback (late screenshots).
- Queued clicks carry their guide id and are stored even if the session
ends while they wait in the queue.
- The tray gesture that stops a session is discarded by matching its
recorded screen position, not a time window — a fast workflow click near
the stop is no longer collateral damage. (Replaces the earlier grace
window, which dropped whole bursts.)
- A click on a display with no ready stream resolves null so the caller
fresh-shots the correct monitor instead of returning another screen.
- STEPFORGE_CAPTURE_LOG=1 prints one line per click decision; the
second-instance handler now surfaces the running window instead of
exiting silently.
- Self-test gains a fast-burst-then-finish scenario (8/8 saved) and the
marker/coordinate checks remain at 0.00% offset.
Tests: 133 unit + all repo checks passing.

Implements the architecture change from ai_prompts/prompt3.md:
- New app/click-frames.js: shared timestamped frame ring + strict
click-to-frame pairing (never a frame whose grab started after the
click); legacy slack behavior kept behind capture.strictClickFrames=false.
- New stream capture backend (app/stream-backend.js + hidden worker
window): per-display desktop media streams sampled into ring buffers
and PNG-encoded entirely off the main process, so click delivery is
never starved by capture work. Auto-degrades to the legacy in-process
frame loop when streams cannot start or the worker stops answering.
- Clicks are paired with their frame at event time (eager pairing in
enqueueClickCapture); only the storing is serialized, so slow encodes
cannot skew later clicks in a fast burst.
- Linux watcher: restored event-time root coordinates from
xinput test-xi2 and merge raw/regular twin events structurally.
- Replaced the 40ms time debounce with source-aware duplicate
suppression: fast legitimate clicks are never dropped.
- New app/coords.js: physical-to-DIP conversion with multi-monitor and
scale-factor handling; Windows keeps screenToDipPoint.
- STEPFORGE_CLICK_SELFTEST end-to-end hook: 3/3 clicks become steps via
the stream backend with 0.00% marker offset on this host.
- Tests rewritten/added: strict selection, coords, stream backend,
Linux coordinate parsing, twin merge, burst clicking (126 passing).

- New Capture sessions now start paused; the window only tucks away once
the user clicks "Start recording" in the capture bar instead of hiding
~1.2s after starting.
- The capture status bar is shown only in the editor view, not over the
library.
- Fix openModal/confirmDialog resolving as cancelled when an action button
is clicked, which made the step "Delete" button (and other modal actions)
silently no-op.
- Click-triggered captures now use the click-time cursor position for the
marker and arm the capture cache as soon as recording starts, so the
first click is captured instantly and accurately placed.
