Subject: [PATCH 01/51] feat(audio): adaptive queue depth estimator and RT
 allocation guard

DepthEstimator sizes a queue from the jitter it measures (window mean minus
window low, 99th percentile with ~45 s half-life forgetting), so the target
no longer follows the level its own corrections move. Underruns raise it at
once; unused depth is released over about a minute.

rt_guard is a test-only counting allocator that proves a real-time path
never touches the heap.

+//! Adaptive queue depth for audio that arrives on one clock and is consumed on
+//! another: captured input read by a speaker graph, network audio read by any
+//! output.
+//!
+//! What a queue needs is headroom against its own jitter: how far it dips
+//! below its typical level before the next delivery lands. Measuring that dip
+//! rather than the level itself is the point. The level is what the caller's
+//! corrections move, so a target derived from the level chases its own
+//! corrections; the dip (window mean minus window low) is the same whatever
+//! level the queue is held at.
+//!
+//! Dips are kept in a histogram with exponential forgetting and the depth is
+//! a high quantile of it, the way WebRTC's NetEq sizes its jitter buffer. An
+//! underrun is recorded as an outage large enough to move the quantile at
+//! once (fast attack); forgetting hands unused depth back over about a minute
+//! (slow release), so a single spike cannot pin the latency high and a
+//! repeating one is not forgotten between repeats.
+//!
+//! Everything is fixed-size: `observe` and `underrun` are RT-safe.

Subject: [PATCH 02/51] feat(audio): render speakers in the device callback at
 a configurable buffer size

- Speaker graphs render inside the device callback: no output ring, no
  sleeping worker. The engine block is a new buffer setting (32-2048
  frames, default 256); macOS requests the same device IO buffer via HAL.
- Live sources hold their queue at the measured headroom (cushion):
  startup backlog dropped, drift spliced out or stretched in with
  crossfades, an underrun re-primes once instead of clicking per block.
- Network receive sizes its jitter buffer with the same estimator and
  follows the engine block instead of a fixed 1024.
- Offload pad is max(block, effect floor): plugins 5 ms, noise suppressor
  one model hop. Offload threads run at real-time priority.
- latency_report replaces output_latency_ms: device buffers and hardware
  latency both ways, input queue, processing, output adapter, DSP load,
  overloads and per-node working block.
- GraphSpec reads camelCase, so sampleRate from the frontend is applied
  (it was silently ignored) and bufferFrames arrives.
- Full-width effects process at their real channel count; a mono source
  into an analyzer panicked.

 ## DspWorker pacing
 
-- `Clock` — the single transport cadence for every worker (speaker, monitoring, wire sender, recording). Sleeps to a per-block deadline; a missed deadline produces silence, never a rate error. Recording must follow the wall clock, not the source — a file source decodes faster than real time and would otherwise over-run the encoder.
-- Stall: per-source `last_pop_at`; >150 ms silence → zero-fill and proceed.
+- Speakers render inside the device callback (`pipeline/output/render.rs`): the device is the clock, one engine block per callback, no output ring. The engine block is the user's buffer setting (32-2048 frames); the device IO buffer is requested at the same size. The graph reaches the callback through an SPSC handoff and is handed back on teardown, so it never drops on the audio thread.
+- `Clock` paces the timer workers (monitoring, wire sender, recording) at `TIMER_BLOCK_FRAMES`. Sleeps to a per-block deadline; a missed deadline produces silence, never a rate error. Recording must follow the wall clock, not the source: a file source decodes faster than real time and would otherwise over-run the encoder.
+- Live sources hold their queue at a measured headroom (`pipeline/cushion.rs`), sized by `audio/adaptive_depth.rs`, which also sizes the network jitter buffer. Excess is spliced out and shortfall stretched in, with crossfades; an underrun re-primes once instead of clicking per block.
+- An effect that cannot answer within the engine block (offloaded plugins, the noise suppressor) runs at its own working block, declares it as latency for PDC, and the node shows it.
+- Stall: per-source `last_pop_at`; >150 ms silence: zero-fill and proceed.
 - RT promotion happens after speaker startup prefill. Every overdue Linux tick performs a real blocking sleep before more DSP work; an unbounded catch-up loop is forbidden even when the ring can absorb it.

+//! size that differs from the engine block (or a device rate that differs from
+//! the pipeline rate) goes through a small adapter holding at most one
+//! rendered block.

+//! The renderer owns the output graph, so it must never be freed on the audio
+//! thread or leaked with a callback closure (cpal's CoreAudio backend leaks the
+//! closure of a non-default device). It therefore reaches the callback through
+//! an SPSC handoff and is handed back to the control thread on retire.

 readout and working-block badge

- Settings: buffer size presets with their duration at the pipeline rate.
- Header: real round-trip latency with a per-stage breakdown, DSP load,
  and a warning when audio was dropped.
- Nodes that run at a larger block than the engine buffer show an
  hourglass next to the resampling icon.
- Storybook: mocked latency_report, bufferFrames/workingBlock controls,
  Larger block stories for Noise Suppressor and Plugin.

 - Speakers render inside the device callback (`pipeline/output/render.rs`): the device is the clock, one engine block per callback, no output ring. The engine block is the user's buffer setting (32-2048 frames); the device IO buffer is requested at the same size. The graph reaches the callback through an SPSC handoff and is handed back on teardown, so it never drops on the audio thread.
 - `Clock` paces the timer workers (monitoring, wire sender, recording) at `TIMER_BLOCK_FRAMES`. Sleeps to a per-block deadline; a missed deadline produces silence, never a rate error. Recording must follow the wall clock, not the source: a file source decodes faster than real time and would otherwise over-run the encoder.
-- Live sources hold their queue at a measured headroom (`pipeline/cushion.rs`), sized by `audio/adaptive_depth.rs`, which also sizes the network jitter buffer. Excess is spliced out and shortfall stretched in, with crossfades; an underrun re-primes once instead of clicking per block.
+- Live sources hold their queue at a measured headroom (`pipeline/cushion.rs`), sized by `audio/adaptive_depth.rs`, which also sizes the network jitter buffer. Excess is spliced out and shortfall stretched in, with crossfades; an underrun re-primes once instead of clicking per block. Running dry deepens a queue only by audio that later arrives late (`OutageJudge`); a source that goes quiet (paused app, DTX sender) never does.
 - An effect that cannot answer within the engine block (offloaded plugins, the noise suppressor) runs at its own working block, declares it as latency for PDC, and the node shows it.
 - Stall: per-source `last_pop_at`; >150 ms silence: zero-fill and proceed.
 - RT promotion happens after speaker startup prefill. Every overdue Linux tick performs a real blocking sleep before more DSP work; an unbounded catch-up loop is forbidden even when the ring can absorb it.

 - Speakers render inside the device callback (`pipeline/output/render.rs`): the device is the clock, one engine block per callback, no output ring. The engine block is the user's buffer setting (32-2048 frames); the device IO buffer is requested at the same size. The graph reaches the callback through an SPSC handoff and is handed back on teardown, so it never drops on the audio thread.
 - `Clock` paces the timer workers (monitoring, wire sender, recording) at `TIMER_BLOCK_FRAMES`. Sleeps to a per-block deadline; a missed deadline produces silence, never a rate error. Recording must follow the wall clock, not the source: a file source decodes faster than real time and would otherwise over-run the encoder.
-- Live sources hold their queue at a measured headroom (`pipeline/cushion.rs`), sized by `audio/adaptive_depth.rs`, which also sizes the network jitter buffer. Excess is spliced out and shortfall stretched in, with crossfades; an underrun re-primes once instead of clicking per block. Running dry deepens a queue only by audio that later arrives late (`OutageJudge`); a source that goes quiet (paused app, DTX sender) never does.

Excess is spliced out and shortfall stretched in, with crossfades; an underrun re-primes once instead of clicking per block. Running dry deepens a queue only by audio that later arrives late (`OutageJudge`); a source that goes quiet (paused app, DTX sender) never does. A source on the speaker's own clock (a process tap on the default output, a mic on the same device or clock domain) is locked: never spliced while it plays, realigned only from silence, with fades at every stop and start. Capture buffers (mic, tap aggregate) are requested at the engine block.
 - An effect that cannot answer within the engine block (offloaded plugins, the noise suppressor) runs at its own working block, declares it as latency for PDC, and the node shows it.
 - Stall: per-source `last_pop_at`; >150 ms silence: zero-fill and proceed.
 - RT promotion happens after speaker startup prefill. Every overdue Linux tick performs a real blocking sleep before more DSP work; an unbounded catch-up loop is forbidden even when the ring can absorb it.

@@ -42,7 +42,7 @@ Without these, one chunk takes ~16 ms and the worker stalls.
 
 - Speakers render inside the device callback (`pipeline/output/render.rs`): the device is the clock, one engine block per callback, no output ring. The engine block is the user's buffer setting (32-2048 frames); the device IO buffer is requested at the same size. The graph reaches the callback through an SPSC handoff and is handed back on teardown, so it never drops on the audio thread.
 - `Clock` paces the timer workers (monitoring, wire sender, recording) at `TIMER_BLOCK_FRAMES`. Sleeps to a per-block deadline; a missed deadline produces silence, never a rate error. Recording must follow the wall clock, not the source: a file source decodes faster than real time and would otherwise over-run the encoder.
-- Live sources hold their queue at a measured headroom (`pipeline/cushion.rs`), sized by `audio/adaptive_depth.rs`, which also sizes the network jitter buffer. Excess is spliced out and shortfall stretched in, with crossfades; an underrun re-primes once instead of clicking per block. Running dry deepens a queue only by audio that later arrives late (`OutageJudge`); a source that goes quiet (paused app, DTX sender) never does. A source on the speaker's own clock (a process tap on the default output, a mic on the same device or clock domain) is locked: never spliced while it plays, realigned only from silence, with fades at every stop and start. Capture buffers (mic, tap aggregate) are requested at the engine block.
+- Live sources hold their queue at a measured headroom (`pipeline/cushion.rs`), sized by `audio/adaptive_depth.rs`, which also sizes the network jitter buffer. A source on another clock reads through an asynchronous resampler (`pipeline/asrc.rs`) whose ratio a slow PI loop steers (`audio/drift_loop.rs`, zita-a2j style, 0.05 Hz, at most 1000 ppm), fed the queue plus what the producer has made but not yet written (`input_bridge::WriteClock`, lowpassed by `ArrivalClock`): drift is absorbed by the ratio, never by splices. A source on the speaker's own clock (a process tap on the default output, a mic on the same device or clock domain) reads straight. Either way the queue is spliced only once, when the start depth guessed before measuring is corrected (the loop holds still meanwhile), and after running dry it is realigned only under the silence already played, with fades at every stop and start. Running dry deepens a queue only by audio that later arrives late (`OutageJudge`), and only when that happens again within a minute; a source that goes quiet (paused app, DTX sender) never does. Capture buffers (mic, tap aggregate) are requested at the engine block.
 - An effect that cannot answer within the engine block (offloaded plugins, the noise suppressor) runs at its own working block, declares it as latency for PDC, and the node shows it.
 - Stall: per-source `last_pop_at`; >150 ms silence: zero-fill and proceed.
 - RT promotion happens after speaker startup prefill. Every overdue Linux tick performs a real blocking sleep before more DSP work; an unbounded catch-up loop is forbidden even when the ring can absorb it.

 - Speakers render inside the device callback (`pipeline/output/render.rs`): the device is the clock, one engine block per callback, no output ring. The engine block is the user's buffer setting (32-2048 frames); the device IO buffer is requested at the same size. The graph reaches the callback through an SPSC handoff and is handed back on teardown, so it never drops on the audio thread.
 - `Clock` paces the timer workers (monitoring, wire sender, recording) at `TIMER_BLOCK_FRAMES`. Sleeps to a per-block deadline; a missed deadline produces silence, never a rate error. Recording must follow the wall clock, not the source: a file source decodes faster than real time and would otherwise over-run the encoder.
-- Live sources hold their queue at a measured headroom (`pipeline/cushion.rs`), sized by `audio/adaptive_depth.rs`, which also sizes the network jitter buffer. A source on another clock reads through an asynchronous resampler (`pipeline/asrc.rs`) whose ratio a slow PI loop steers (`audio/drift_loop.rs`, zita-a2j style, 0.05 Hz, at most 1000 ppm), fed the queue plus what the producer has made but not yet written (`input_bridge::WriteClock`, lowpassed by `ArrivalClock`): drift is absorbed by the ratio, never by splices. A source on the speaker's own clock (a process tap on the default output, a mic on the same device or clock domain) reads straight. Either way the queue is spliced only once, when the start depth guessed before measuring is corrected (the loop holds still meanwhile), and after running dry it is realigned only under the silence already played, with fades at every stop and start. Running dry deepens a queue only by audio that later arrives late (`OutageJudge`), and only when that happens again within a minute; a source that goes quiet (paused app, DTX sender) never does. Capture buffers (mic, tap aggregate) are requested at the engine block.

The network receiver (`stream_recv.rs`) runs the same loop against its packets' write timing, holding the fill right after a packet at its start level.

 - An effect that cannot answer within the engine block (offloaded plugins, the noise suppressor) runs at its own working block, declares it as latency for PDC, and the node shows it.
 - Stall: per-source `last_pop_at`; >150 ms silence: zero-fill and proceed.
 - RT promotion happens after speaker startup prefill. Every overdue Linux tick performs a real blocking sleep before more DSP work; an unbounded catch-up loop is forbidden even when the ring can absorb it.

+One exception: waking a sleeping helper thread with `Thread::unpark` (an offload worker after its input was pushed). It never blocks; when the thread is awake it is a single atomic swap, and otherwise one futex/ulock/`WakeByAddress` wake. Polling with `sleep` instead costs the worker up to a poll period of its deadline.

@@ -43,7 +45,7 @@ Without these, one chunk takes ~16 ms and the worker stalls.
 - Speakers render inside the device callback (`pipeline/output/render.rs`): the device is the clock, one engine block per callback, no output ring. The engine block is the user's buffer setting (32-2048 frames); the device IO buffer is requested at the same size. The graph reaches the callback through an SPSC handoff and is handed back on teardown, so it never drops on the audio thread.
 - `Clock` paces the timer workers (monitoring, wire sender, recording) at `TIMER_BLOCK_FRAMES`. Sleeps to a per-block deadline; a missed deadline produces silence, never a rate error. Recording must follow the wall clock, not the source: a file source decodes faster than real time and would otherwise over-run the encoder.
 - Live sources hold their queue at a measured headroom (`pipeline/cushion.rs`), sized by `audio/adaptive_depth.rs`, which also sizes the network jitter buffer. A source on another clock reads through an asynchronous resampler (`pipeline/asrc.rs`) whose ratio a slow PI loop steers (`audio/drift_loop.rs`, zita-a2j style, 0.05 Hz, at most 1000 ppm), fed the queue plus what the producer has made but not yet written (`input_bridge::WriteClock`, lowpassed by `ArrivalClock`): drift is absorbed by the ratio, never by splices. The network receiver (`stream_recv.rs`) runs the same loop against its packets' write timing, holding the fill right after a packet at its start level. A source on the speaker's own clock (a process tap on the default output, a mic on the same device or clock domain) reads straight. Either way the queue is spliced only once, when the start depth guessed before measuring is corrected (the loop holds still meanwhile), and after running dry it is realigned only under the silence already played, with fades at every stop and start. Running dry deepens a queue only by audio that later arrives late (`OutageJudge`), and only when that happens again within a minute; a source that goes quiet (paused app, DTX sender) never does. Capture buffers (mic, tap aggregate) are requested at the engine block.
-- An effect that cannot answer within the engine block (offloaded plugins, the noise suppressor) runs at its own working block, declares it as latency for PDC, and the node shows it.
+- An effect that cannot answer within the engine block (offloaded plugins, the noise suppressor) runs on an offload thread (`effects/offload.rs`). One that can only step in whole blocks of its own (a model hop) names that block, and the offload gathers exactly those before calling it; the effect never pads or buffers for it itself. The offload's pad is the least that never starves at the worst alignment of those blocks against the engine's, plus a 5 ms turnaround. The effect declares only its own latency (a model's algorithmic delay, a resampler's queues), the offload adds its pad, PDC aligns against the sum, and the node shows it.
 - Stall: per-source `last_pop_at`; >150 ms silence: zero-fill and proceed.
 - RT promotion happens after speaker startup prefill. Every overdue Linux tick performs a real blocking sleep before more DSP work; an unbounded catch-up loop is forbidden even when the ring can absorb it.

@@ -45,6 +45,7 @@ Without these, one chunk takes ~16 ms and the worker stalls.
 - Speakers render inside the device callback (`pipeline/output/render.rs`): the device is the clock, one engine block per callback, no output ring. The engine block is the user's buffer setting (32-2048 frames); the device IO buffer is requested at the same size. The graph reaches the callback through an SPSC handoff and is handed back on teardown, so it never drops on the audio thread.
 - `Clock` paces the timer workers (monitoring, wire sender, recording) at `TIMER_BLOCK_FRAMES`. Sleeps to a per-block deadline; a missed deadline produces silence, never a rate error. Recording must follow the wall clock, not the source: a file source decodes faster than real time and would otherwise over-run the encoder.
 - Live sources hold their queue at a measured headroom (`pipeline/cushion.rs`), sized by `audio/adaptive_depth.rs`, which also sizes the network jitter buffer. A source on another clock reads through an asynchronous resampler (`pipeline/asrc.rs`) whose ratio a slow PI loop steers (`audio/drift_loop.rs`, zita-a2j style, 0.05 Hz, at most 1000 ppm), fed the queue plus what the producer has made but not yet written (`input_bridge::WriteClock`, lowpassed by `ArrivalClock`): drift is absorbed by the ratio, never by splices. The network receiver (`stream_recv.rs`) runs the same loop against its packets' write timing, holding the fill right after a packet at its start level. A source on the speaker's own clock (a process tap on the default output, a mic on the same device or clock domain) reads straight. Either way the queue is spliced only once, when the start depth guessed before measuring is corrected (the loop holds still meanwhile), and after running dry it is realigned only under the silence already played, with fades at every stop and start. Running dry deepens a queue only by audio that later arrives late (`OutageJudge`), and only when that happens again within a minute; a source that goes quiet (paused app, DTX sender) never does. Capture buffers (mic, tap aggregate) are requested at the engine block.
+- Nothing steps the output: a speaker fades in over 10 ms when it starts and out over 10 ms before it retires, and a graph swap renders the old and new graphs together for 10 ms, crossfading from one to the other (`worker.rs`).
 - An effect that cannot answer within the engine block (offloaded plugins, the noise suppressor) runs on an offload thread (`effects/offload.rs`). One that can only step in whole blocks of its own (a model hop) names that block, and the offload gathers exactly those before calling it; the effect never pads or buffers for it itself. The offload's pad is the least that never starves at the worst alignment of those blocks against the engine's, plus a 5 ms turnaround. The effect declares only its own latency (a model's algorithmic delay, a resampler's queues), the offload adds its pad, PDC aligns against the sum, and the node shows it.
 - Stall: per-source `last_pop_at`; >150 ms silence: zero-fill and proceed.
 - RT promotion happens after speaker startup prefill. Every overdue Linux tick performs a real blocking sleep before more DSP work; an unbounded catch-up loop is forbidden even when the ring can absorb it.

Subject: [PATCH 11/51] feat(audio): carry unchanged nodes across graph swaps
 instead of rebuilding them

Monitor sources are keyed like their bridges, so they get their delivery counters.

@@ -45,7 +45,8 @@ Without these, one chunk takes ~16 ms and the worker stalls.
 - Speakers render inside the device callback (`pipeline/output/render.rs`): the device is the clock, one engine block per callback, no output ring. The engine block is the user's buffer setting (32-2048 frames); the device IO buffer is requested at the same size. The graph reaches the callback through an SPSC handoff and is handed back on teardown, so it never drops on the audio thread.
 - `Clock` paces the timer workers (monitoring, wire sender, recording) at `TIMER_BLOCK_FRAMES`. Sleeps to a per-block deadline; a missed deadline produces silence, never a rate error. Recording must follow the wall clock, not the source: a file source decodes faster than real time and would otherwise over-run the encoder.
 - Live sources hold their queue at a measured headroom (`pipeline/cushion.rs`), sized by `audio/adaptive_depth.rs`, which also sizes the network jitter buffer. A source on another clock reads through an asynchronous resampler (`pipeline/asrc.rs`) whose ratio a slow PI loop steers (`audio/drift_loop.rs`, zita-a2j style, 0.05 Hz, at most 1000 ppm), fed the queue plus what the producer has made but not yet written (`input_bridge::WriteClock`, lowpassed by `ArrivalClock`): drift is absorbed by the ratio, never by splices. The network receiver (`stream_recv.rs`) runs the same loop against its packets' write timing, holding the fill right after a packet at its start level. A source on the speaker's own clock (a process tap on the default output, a mic on the same device or clock domain) reads straight. Either way the queue is spliced only once, when the start depth guessed before measuring is corrected (the loop holds still meanwhile), and after running dry it is realigned only under the silence already played, with fades at every stop and start. Running dry deepens a queue only by audio that later arrives late (`OutageJudge`), and only when that happens again within a minute; a source that goes quiet (paused app, DTX sender) never does. Capture buffers (mic, tap aggregate) are requested at the engine block.
-- Nothing steps the output: a speaker fades in over 10 ms when it starts and out over 10 ms before it retires, and a graph swap renders the old and new graphs together for 10 ms, crossfading from one to the other (`worker.rs`).
+- An edit rebuilds only what it changed. A node whose build inputs are unchanged (same id, structural spec, width, rate, block) is built as an empty placeholder, and when the new graph swaps in on the running worker it takes over the old node's live state (`OutputGraph::adopt_from`): a source its ring, queue and resamplers, with the bridge feeding that ring kept; an effect its instances, controls and handles; an edge its delay line when the delay is unchanged. Only a graph that is not swapped in place is built from scratch.
+- Nothing steps the output: a speaker fades in over 10 ms when it starts and out over 10 ms before it retires, and a swap that carries nothing over renders the old and new graphs together for 10 ms, crossfading from one to the other (`worker.rs`).
 - An effect that cannot answer within the engine block (offloaded plugins, the noise suppressor) runs on an offload thread (`effects/offload.rs`). One that can only step in whole blocks of its own (a model hop) names that block, and the offload gathers exactly those before calling it; the effect never pads or buffers for it itself. The offload's pad is the least that never starves at the worst alignment of those blocks against the engine's, plus a 5 ms turnaround. The effect declares only its own latency (a model's algorithmic delay, a resampler's queues), the offload adds its pad, PDC aligns against the sum, and the node shows it.
 - Stall: per-source `last_pop_at`; >150 ms silence: zero-fill and proceed.
 - RT promotion happens after speaker startup prefill. Every overdue Linux tick performs a real blocking sleep before more DSP work; an unbounded catch-up loop is forbidden even when the ring can absorb it.

Subject: [PATCH 13/51] fix(audio): dip instead of stepping when a swap changes
 what is heard

Carried sources follow the new graph's clock lock, short splices end on the incoming audio, a speaker retired early or mid fade-in hands back cleanly.

@@ -46,7 +46,7 @@ Without these, one chunk takes ~16 ms and the worker stalls.
 - `Clock` paces the timer workers (monitoring, wire sender, recording) at `TIMER_BLOCK_FRAMES`. Sleeps to a per-block deadline; a missed deadline produces silence, never a rate error. Recording must follow the wall clock, not the source: a file source decodes faster than real time and would otherwise over-run the encoder.
 - Live sources hold their queue at a measured headroom (`pipeline/cushion.rs`), sized by `audio/adaptive_depth.rs`, which also sizes the network jitter buffer. A source on another clock reads through an asynchronous resampler (`pipeline/asrc.rs`) whose ratio a slow PI loop steers (`audio/drift_loop.rs`, zita-a2j style, 0.05 Hz, at most 1000 ppm), fed the queue plus what the producer has made but not yet written (`input_bridge::WriteClock`, lowpassed by `ArrivalClock`): drift is absorbed by the ratio, never by splices. The network receiver (`stream_recv.rs`) runs the same loop against its packets' write timing, holding the fill right after a packet at its start level. A source on the speaker's own clock (a process tap on the default output, a mic on the same device or clock domain) reads straight. Either way the queue is spliced only once, when the start depth guessed before measuring is corrected (the loop holds still meanwhile), and after running dry it is realigned only under the silence already played, with fades at every stop and start. Running dry deepens a queue only by audio that later arrives late (`OutageJudge`), and only when that happens again within a minute; a source that goes quiet (paused app, DTX sender) never does. Capture buffers (mic, tap aggregate) are requested at the engine block.
 - An edit rebuilds only what it changed. A node whose build inputs are unchanged (same id, structural spec, width, rate, block) is built as an empty placeholder, and when the new graph swaps in on the running worker it takes over the old node's live state (`OutputGraph::adopt_from`): a source its ring, queue and resamplers, with the bridge feeding that ring kept; an effect its instances, controls and handles; an edge its delay line when the delay is unchanged. Only a graph that is not swapped in place is built from scratch.
-- Nothing steps the output: a speaker fades in over 10 ms when it starts and out over 10 ms before it retires, and a swap that carries nothing over renders the old and new graphs together for 10 ms, crossfading from one to the other (`worker.rs`).
+- Nothing steps the output: a speaker fades in over 10 ms when it starts and out over 10 ms before it retires. A swap whose heard part is unchanged (every node reaching the output carried over, fed by the same edges at the same delays; `OutputGraph::plays_like`) goes in at once; any other fades the running graph out over 10 ms, swaps, carrying over what it can, and fades the new one in (`worker.rs`).
 - An effect that cannot answer within the engine block (offloaded plugins, the noise suppressor) runs on an offload thread (`effects/offload.rs`). One that can only step in whole blocks of its own (a model hop) names that block, and the offload gathers exactly those before calling it; the effect never pads or buffers for it itself. The offload's pad is the least that never starves at the worst alignment of those blocks against the engine's, plus a 5 ms turnaround. The effect declares only its own latency (a model's algorithmic delay, a resampler's queues), the offload adds its pad, PDC aligns against the sum, and the node shows it.
 - Stall: per-source `last_pop_at`; >150 ms silence: zero-fill and proceed.
 - RT promotion happens after speaker startup prefill. Every overdue Linux tick performs a real blocking sleep before more DSP work; an unbounded catch-up loop is forbidden even when the ring can absorb it.

Subject: [PATCH 14/51] fix(audio): offload worker blocks when overloaded,
 speaker renderer comes back from a dead device

The renderer is built before the stream opens; a plugin no longer reports its offload pad as a working block.

 - PipeWire process callbacks and promoted DSP workers are RT code. They may touch only preallocated buffers, SPSC rings and relaxed atomics.
 - `audio_thread_priority` obtains real-time scheduling through RTKit. Its frame argument is the maximum uninterrupted render quantum, not a latency target. Pass the actual known block size; pass `0` when PipeWire owns an unknown callback quantum.
 - Linux `RLIMIT_RTTIME` measures CPU time spent under real-time scheduling without a blocking syscall. Crossing the soft limit sends `SIGXCPU`; crossing the hard limit sends `SIGKILL`. Preemption and `sched_yield` do not reset it. Startup prefill runs before promotion, and deadline catch-up must block between blocks. Never raise or disable the OS limit to hide an overload.
+- An offload worker runs promoted but parks only when its input is empty; one whose effect cannot keep up would never park, so after 20 ms of uninterrupted work it sleeps 1 ms (`effects/offload.rs`).
 - A `SIGXCPU` followed by `SIGKILL` from the audio thread with `si_code=SI_KERNEL` is an RT-budget failure. A Rust panic hook and in-process crash modal cannot observe `SIGKILL`; preserve the previous-run unexpected-exit report.

 ## DspWorker pacing
 
 - Speakers render inside the device callback (`pipeline/output/render.rs`): the device is the clock, one engine block per callback, no output ring. The engine block is the user's buffer setting (32-2048 frames); the device IO buffer is requested at the same size. The graph reaches the callback through an SPSC handoff and is handed back on teardown, so it never drops on the audio thread.
-- `Clock` paces the timer workers (monitoring, wire sender, recording) at `TIMER_BLOCK_FRAMES`. Sleeps to a per-block deadline; a missed deadline produces silence, never a rate error. Recording must follow the wall clock, not the source: a file source decodes faster than real time and would otherwise over-run the encoder.
+- `Clock` paces the timer workers: monitoring and recording at `TIMER_BLOCK_FRAMES`, a wire sender at the engine block, since its latency is heard at the far end. Sleeps to a per-block deadline; a missed deadline produces silence, never a rate error. Recording must follow the wall clock, not the source: a file source decodes faster than real time and would otherwise over-run the encoder.
 - Live sources hold their queue at a measured headroom (`pipeline/cushion.rs`), sized by `audio/adaptive_depth.rs`, which also sizes the network jitter buffer. A source on another clock reads through an asynchronous resampler (`pipeline/asrc.rs`) whose ratio a slow PI loop steers (`audio/drift_loop.rs`, zita-a2j style, 0.05 Hz, at most 1000 ppm), fed the queue plus what the producer has made but not yet written (`input_bridge::WriteClock`, lowpassed by `ArrivalClock`): drift is absorbed by the ratio, never by splices. The network receiver (`stream_recv.rs`) runs the same loop against its packets' write timing, holding the fill right after a packet at its start level. A source on the speaker's own clock (a process tap on the default output, a mic on the same device or clock domain) reads straight. Either way the queue is spliced only once, when the start depth guessed before measuring is corrected (the loop holds still meanwhile), and after running dry it is realigned only under the silence already played, with fades at every stop and start. Running dry deepens a queue only by audio that later arrives late (`OutageJudge`), and only when that happens again within a minute; a source that goes quiet (paused app, DTX sender) never does. Capture buffers (mic, tap aggregate) are requested at the engine block.
 - An edit rebuilds only what it changed. A node whose build inputs are unchanged (same id, structural spec, width, rate, block) is built as an empty placeholder, and when the new graph swaps in on the running worker it takes over the old node's live state (`OutputGraph::adopt_from`): a source its ring, queue and resamplers, with the bridge feeding that ring kept; an effect its instances, controls and handles; an edge its delay line when the delay is unchanged. Only a graph that is not swapped in place is built from scratch.
 - Nothing steps the output: a speaker fades in over 10 ms when it starts and out over 10 ms before it retires. A swap whose heard part is unchanged (every node reaching the output carried over, fed by the same edges at the same delays; `OutputGraph::plays_like`) goes in at once; any other fades the running graph out over 10 ms, swaps, carrying over what it can, and fades the new one in (`worker.rs`).

Subject: [PATCH 18/51] fix(audio): follow the engine block and source rate
 everywhere, share engine limits with the frontend

- Wire packets carry one engine block (Opus from 2.5 ms); the receiver
  reads packet size from the packet and sizes its buffer from the link, in
  the source's own rate.
- Capture normalizer is woken by its capture and resamples one device
  block; monitor graph runs the engine block; offload pads from measured
  processing time.
- RT safety: input staging, network, LUFS and noise suppressor buffers are
  sized up front; LUFS uses histogram gating.
- Mono and odd channels fill both sides of a stereo pair; tests run every
  effect mono, stereo and six channels wide.
- Gain/mute ramps, splices, fades, meter RMS and gauges work in time, not
  blocks; declick delay follows its configured width.
- Edits reach the engine at once; hot swaps wait for fresh bridges instead
  of a fixed sleep; xrun thread wakes on stop.
- macOS tap reacts to the output device starting and polls at 200 ms.
- Virtual driver ring is sized in time, masked, and refuses stale reads.
- Engine limits are generated into generated/engine.ts for the frontend.

Subject: [PATCH 19/51] fix(delay): a time change glides like tape instead of
 stepping once a block

The read position follows the set time frame by frame, read between
samples, at most 25% faster or slower than the audio, so moving the
slider bends the pitch briefly instead of clicking at every block.

Subject: [PATCH 20/51] fix(spectrum): same frequency resolution at any sample
 rate

The window scales with the rate (4096 frames at 48 kHz, 16384 at
192 kHz), so a bin stays about 11 Hz and low tones stay apart; the UI
sizes its FFT from the window it receives.

Subject: [PATCH 21/51] fix(audio-file): sample-accurate seeks that never play
 the old position, WebRTC graph at 48 kHz

- A seek asks every graph reading the file to fade the old position out
  over 5 ms and drop it, waits for each to answer, then hands over the new
  position, which fades in. Dropping on the command raced the reader.
- Seeks land on the exact frame asked for, not the start of its packet.
- WebRTC send graphs run at 48 kHz like Opus net senders, so the engine
  converts the rate block by block and the encode thread's 256-frame
  resampler is gone; one rule picks every wire sender's rate.

Subject: [PATCH 22/51] fix(plugins): a slow plugin loads instead of timing
 out, a call that never started never runs

A main-thread call that has not started within 5 s is withdrawn, so it
cannot run later and leave an instance nobody owns. One that has started
is waited for, up to 60 s, so a large plugin that takes a while to load
opens instead of failing at 5 s.

Subject: [PATCH 23/51] fix(webrtc): joining waits on connection events and
 gives up on a silent server

The guest hears each peer connection state as it happens instead of
polling every 250 ms. Reaching the signaling server and hearing the
host's offer are bounded, so a dead or silent server ends the attempt
instead of hanging the join.

Subject: [PATCH 24/51] fix(monitor): tick the monitor at its own block, file
 read-ahead is not latency

- The monitor graph ran 32-frame blocks on a ticker still paced for
  1024, so it played about 3% of real time; a file feeding it and a
  speaker then stopped decoding for the speaker too, and the sound broke.
  The monitor is back on the large timer block, and every timer worker
  now ticks at the block its graph was built for. A test runs the real
  worker at both blocks and checks it keeps real time.
- A file's queue is audio decoded ahead, not held back: the latency
  report no longer counts it, and the playhead shows the position being
  heard rather than the one handed over.

Subject: [PATCH 25/51] refactor(pipeline): run on a host, so whole pipelines
 can run on virtual devices

The pipeline no longer takes Tauri's AppHandle and cpal devices directly
but a Host: where UI events go, and whether devices are the system's or
virtual ones. The app passes its window and the system's devices, as
before. Virtual devices exist only in memory: an input plays a tone on
its own clock through the same capture broadcast a device callback uses,
and a speaker pulls the real speaker renderer on its own clock and keeps
what it played. A testkit drives ActivePipeline on them for tests that
run on machines with no sound hardware.

ebur128 is built optimized in dev: unoptimized, a LUFS meter could not
keep a 64-frame speaker in real time.

Subject: [PATCH 26/51] test: 99 whole-pipeline scenarios on virtual devices

Every input kind (WAV/FLAC/MP3 files, microphones at 44.1/48/96 kHz, a
four-channel interface, system and app audio) on one speaker at 256 and
32 frames, through a chain with a meter, on two speakers and on a
speaker at another rate; every effect alone; files through effects with
an analyzer on the monitor; recordings; network loopback over PCM and
Opus; edits while playing; mixes and multichannel speakers. Each runs in
real time through the app's engine and checks that every worker keeps
real time, no source runs dry and the sound comes out unbroken. They
run one at a time and need no sound hardware, so they run on CI.

Subject: [PATCH 27/51] fix(audio): a speaker that stalls does not keep what
 piled up meanwhile

A device overload makes the speaker skip callbacks while its inputs, on
their own devices, deliver on. That audio stayed queued: a mic locked to
the speaker's clock has no resampler to take it back down, so every
overload added its length to the latency for good, until the input ring
overflowed. The renderer now tells a gap of several periods from jitter,
and every live source realigns under that dropout, as after any silence,
without deepening its queue. Counted as OUTPUT_STALLS.

Subject: [PATCH 28/51] fix(audio): resume a paused file at once, keep a late
 scope tick at any rate

- A paused file reader is woken on resume and seek instead of noticing
  within 10 ms; dropping it no longer waits out its poll.
- The scope ring holds at least 85 ms at any rate (it was 43 ms at
  384 kHz, less than a late tick).
- Declick's end-of-click hold is a time, not three samples at any rate.

Subject: [PATCH 30/51] fix(plugins): a plugin no output hears still loads and
 runs

A plugin can be an end point of its own (one that sends its input over
the network, as Apple's AUNetSend does), but validation kept only what
reaches an output or an analyzer, so a plugin wired to nothing after it
was dropped before the engine saw it and its node waited forever. A
plugin now counts as an end point like an analyzer: it is validated,
and the monitor graph runs it when no output hears it.
