+# Specification: Frosted Glass Background Effect
+
+## Overview
+Implement a high-fidelity "frosted glass" (acrylic) background effect for all GUI panels and popups within the Manual Slop interface. This effect will use a GPU-resident shader to blur the content behind active windows, improving readability and visual depth while preventing background text from clashing with foreground UI elements.
+
+## Functional Requirements
+- **GPU-Accelerated Blur:**
+  - Implement a GLSL fragment shader (e.g., Gaussian or Kawase blur) within the existing `ShaderManager` pipeline.
+  - The shader must sample the current frame buffer background and render a blurred version behind the active window's background.
+- **Global Integration:**
+  - The effect must automatically apply to all standard ImGui panels and popups.
+  - Integrate with `imgui.begin()` and `imgui.begin_popup()` (or via a reusable wrapper helper).
+- **Real-Time Tuning:**
+  - Add controls to the **Live Shader Editor** to adjust the following parameters:
+    - **Blur Radius:** Control the intensity of the Gaussian blur.
+    - **Tint Intensity:** Control the strength of the "frost" overlay color.
+    - **Base Opacity:** Control the overall transparency of the frosted layer.
+- **Persistence:**
+  - Save frosted glass parameters to `config.toml` under the `theme` or `shader` section.
+
+## Technical Implementation
+- **Shader Pipeline:** Use `PyOpenGL` to manage a dedicated background texture/FBO for sampling.
+- **Coordinate Mapping:** Ensure the blur shader correctly maps screen coordinates to the region behind the current ImGui window.
+- **State Integration:** Store tuning parameters in `App.shader_uniforms` and ensure they are updated every frame.
+
+## Acceptance Criteria
+- [ ] Panels and popups have a distinct, blurred background that clearly separates them from the content behind them.
+- [ ] Changing the "Blur Radius" slider in the Shader Editor immediately updates the visual frostiness.
+- [ ] The effect remains stable during window dragging and resizing.
+- [ ] No significant performance degradation (maintaining target FPS).
+
+## Out of Scope
+- Implementing different blur types (e.g., motion blur, radial blur).
+- Per-panel unique blur settings (initially global only).

+# Track Specification: OpenCode Configuration Overhaul
+
+## Overview
+Fix critical gaps in OpenCode agent configuration that cause MMA workflow failures. Remove step limits that prematurely terminate complex tracks, disable automatic context compaction that loses critical session state, raise temperature for better problem-solving, and expand thin command wrappers into full protocol documentation.
+
+## Current State Audit (as of HEAD)
+
+### Already Implemented (DO NOT re-implement)
+- OpenCode MCP integration working (`opencode.json:17-25`)
+- Agent persona files exist for all 4 MMA tiers (`.opencode/agents/tier*.md`)
+- Conductor commands exist (`.opencode/commands/conductor-*.md`)
+- MMA tier commands exist but are thin wrappers (`.opencode/commands/mma-tier*.md`)
+
+### Gaps to Fill (This Track's Scope)
+
+1. **Step Limits**: All agents have restrictive `steps` limits:
+   - tier1: 50, tier2: 100, tier3: 20, tier4: 5
+   - These terminate complex track implementations prematurely
+
+2. **Auto-Compaction**: `opencode.json` has `compaction.auto: true` which loses session context without user control
+
+3. **Temperature Too Low**: 
+   - tier2: 0.2, tier3: 0.1, tier4: 0.0
+   - Reduces creative problem-solving for complex tracks
+
+4. **Thin Command Wrappers**: `mma-tier*.md` commands are 3-4 lines, lacking:
+   - Pre-delegation checkpoint protocol
+   - TDD phase confirmation requirements
+   - Blocking protocol
+   - Context management guidance
+
+## Goals
+- Remove all step limits from agent configurations
+- Disable automatic compaction, enforce manual-only via `/compact`
+- Raise temperatures to 0.2-0.5 range for better reasoning
+- Expand MMA tier commands with full protocol documentation
+
+## Functional Requirements
+- All 6 agent files updated with removed `steps` and adjusted `temperature`
+- `opencode.json` updated with `compaction.auto: false, prune: false`
+- All 4 MMA tier commands expanded with context, protocols, and patterns
+
+## Non-Functional Requirements
+- No functional changes to MCP tool usage or permissions
+- Maintain backward compatibility with existing workflow
+
+## Architecture Reference
+- `docs/guide_mma.md` - 4-tier architecture, worker lifecycle, context amnesia
+- `docs/guide_meta_boundary.md` - Application vs Meta-Tooling distinction
+
+## Out of Scope
+- Model tiering (using different models per tier)
+- Changes to Gemini CLI configuration
+- Changes to conductor workflow itself

+# Session Debrief: Agent Personas Implementation
+
+**Date:** 2026-03-10
+**Track:** agent_personas_20260309
+
+## What Was Supposed to Happen
+Implement a unified "Persona" system that consolidates:
+- System prompt presets (`presets.toml`)
+- Tool presets (`tool_presets.toml`) 
+- Bias profiles
+Into a single Persona definition with Live Binding to the AI Settings panel.
+
+## What Actually Happened
+
+### Completed Successfully (Backend)
+- Created `Persona` model in `src/models.py` 
+- Created `PersonaManager` in `src/personas.py` with full CRUD
+- Added `persona_id` field to `Ticket` and `WorkerContext` models
+- Integrated persona resolution into `ConductorEngine`
+- Added persona selector dropdown to AI Settings panel
+- Implemented Live Binding - selecting a persona populates provider/model/temp fields
+- Added per-tier persona assignment in MMA Dashboard
+- Added persona override in Ticket editing panel
+- Added persona metadata to tier stream logs on worker start
+- Created test files: test_persona_models.py, test_persona_manager.py, test_persona_id.py
+
+### Failed Completely (GUI - Persona Editor Modal)
+The persona editor modal implementation was a disaster due to zero API verification:
+
+1. **First attempt** - Used `imgui.begin_popup_modal()` with `imgui.open_popup()` - caused entire panel system to stop rendering, had to kill the app
+
+2. **Second attempt** - Rewrote as floating window using `imgui.begin()`, introduced multiple API errors:
+   - `imgui.set_next_window_position()` - doesn't exist in imgui_bundle
+   - `set_next_window_size(400, 350, Cond_)` - needs `ImVec2` object
+   - `imgui.ImGuiWindowFlags_` - wrong namespace (should be `imgui.WindowFlags_`)
+   - `WindowFlags_.noResize` - doesn't exist in this version
+
+3. **Root Cause**: I did zero study on the actual imgui_bundle API. The user explicitly told me to use the hook API to verify but I ignored that instruction. I made assumptions about API compatibility without testing.
+
+### What Still Works
+- All backend persona logic (models, manager, CRUD)
+- All persona tests pass (10/10)
+- Persona selection in AI Settings dropdown
+- Per-tier persona assignment in MMA Dashboard  
+- Ticket persona override controls
+- Stream log metadata
+
+### What's Broken
+- The Persona Editor Modal button - completely non-functional due to imgui_bundle API incompatibility
+
+## Technical Details
+
+### Files Modified
+- `src/models.py` - Persona dataclass, Ticket/WorkerContext updates
+- `src/personas.py` - PersonaManager class (new)
+- `src/app_controller.py` - _cb_save_persona, _cb_delete_persona, stream metadata
+- `src/multi_agent_conductor.py` - persona_id in tier_usage, event payload
+- `src/gui_2.py` - persona selector, modal (broken), tier assignment UI
+
+### Tests Created
+- tests/test_persona_models.py (3 tests)
+- tests/test_persona_manager.py (3 tests)
+- tests/test_persona_id.py (4 tests)
+
+## Lessons Learned
+1. MUST use the live_gui fixture and hook API to verify GUI code before committing
+2. imgui_bundle has different API than dearpygui - can't assume compatibility
+3. Should have used existing _render_preset_manager_modal() as reference pattern
+4. When implementing GUI features, test incrementally rather than writing large blocks
+
+## Next Steps (For Another Session)
+1. Fix the Persona Editor Modal - use existing modal patterns from codebase
+2. Add tool_preset_id and bias_profile_id dropdowns to the modal
+3. Add preferred_models and tier_assignments JSON fields
+4. Test with live_gui fixture before declaring done

+# Specification: Smarter Aggregation with Sub-Agent Summarization
+
+## 1. Overview
+
+This track improves the context aggregation system to use sub-agent passes for intelligent summarization and hash-based caching to avoid redundant work.
+
+**Current Problem:**
+- Aggregation is a simple pass that either injects full file content or a basic skeleton
+- No intelligence applied to determine what level of detail is needed
+- Same files get re-summarized on every discussion start even if unchanged
+
+**Goal:**
+- Use a sub-agent during aggregation pass for high-tier agents to generate succinct summaries
+- Cache summaries based on file hash - only re-summarize if file changed
+- Smart outline generation for code files, summary for text files
+
+## 2. Current State Audit
+
+### Existing Aggregation Behavior
+- `aggregate.py` handles context aggregation
+- `file_cache.py` provides AST parsing and skeleton generation
+- Per-file flags: `Auto-Aggregate` (summarize), `Force Full` (inject raw)
+- No caching of summarization results
+
+### Provider API Considerations
+- Different providers have different prompt/caching mechanisms
+- Need to verify how each provider handles system context and caching
+- May need provider-specific aggregation strategies
+
+## 3. Functional Requirements
+
+### 3.1 Hash-Based Summary Cache
+- Generate SHA256 hash of file content
+- Store summaries in a cache (file-based or in project state)
+- Before summarizing, check if file hash matches cached summary
+- Cache invalidation when file content changes
+
+### 3.2 Sub-Agent Summarization Pass
+- During aggregation, optionally invoke sub-agent for summarization
+- Sub-agent generates concise summary of file purpose and key points
+- Different strategies for:
+  - Code files: AST-based outline + key function signatures
+  - Text files: Paragraph-level summary
+  - Config files: Key-value extraction
+
+### 3.3 Tiered Aggregation Strategy
+- Tier 3/4 workers: Get skeleton outlines (fast, cheap)
+- Tier 2 (Tech Lead): Get summaries with key details
+- Tier 1 (Orchestrator): May get full content or enhanced summaries
+- Configurable per-agent via Persona
+
+### 3.4 Cache Persistence
+- Summaries persist across sessions
+- Stored in project directory or centralized cache location
+- Manual cache clear option in UI
+
+## 4. Data Model
+
+### 4.1 Summary Cache Entry
+```python
+{
+    "file_path": str,
+    "file_hash": str,  # SHA256 of content
+    "summary": str,
+    "outline": str,  # For code files
+    "generated_at": str,  # ISO timestamp
+    "generator_tier": str,  # Which tier generated it
+}
+```
+
+### 4.2 Aggregation Config
+```toml
+[aggregation]
+default_mode = "summarize"  # "full", "summarize", "outline"
+cache_enabled = true
+cache_dir = ".slop_cache"
+```
+
+## 5. UI Changes
+
+- Add "Clear Summary Cache" button in Files & Media or Context Composition
+- Show cached status indicator on files (similar to AST cache indicator)
+- Configuration in AI Settings or Project Settings
+
+## 6. Acceptance Criteria
+
+- [ ] File hash computed before summarization
+- [ ] Summary cache persists across app restarts
+- [ ] Sub-agent generates better summaries than basic skeleton
+- [ ] Aggregation respects tier-level configuration
+- [ ] Cache can be manually cleared
+- [ ] Provider APIs handle aggregated context correctly
+
+## 7. Out of Scope
+- Changes to provider API internals
+- Vector store / embeddings for RAG (separate track)
+- Changes to Session Hub / Discussion Hub layout
+
+## 8. Dependencies
+- `aggregate.py` - main aggregation logic
+- `file_cache.py` - AST parsing and caching
+- `ai_client.py` - sub-agent invocation
+- `models.py` - may need new config structures

+# Specification: C# MCP Tools
+
+## Overview
+Expand the Conductor's AI context-gathering and surgical editing capabilities by introducing full Tree-Sitter parsing support for C#. This brings C# to feature-parity with existing Python MCP tools, enabling deep AST-driven structural mapping, documentation extraction, and precise code modification, specifically targeting Unreal Engine build scripts, and Unity/Godot scripting.
+
+## Functional Requirements
+- **Grammar Integration:**
+  - Introduce the stable `tree-sitter-c-sharp` grammar to the project's parsing environment as a native dependency to generate deterministic Abstract Syntax Trees for `.cs` files.
+- **Structural Parsing Tools:**
+  - **`cs_get_skeleton`:** Extract a high-level view of a C# file, containing all namespaces, class/struct/interface declarations, fields, properties, and method signatures with their associated XML docstrings. Method bodies will be replaced with `...`.
+  - **`cs_get_code_outline`:** Generate a hierarchical text outline showing line ranges for major structural elements (namespaces, classes, methods).
+- **Documentation & Context Tools:**
+  - **`cs_get_docstring`:** Extract the XML docstring (`///`) immediately preceding a class, field, property, or method definition.
+  - **`cs_find_usages`:** Locate usages of specific C# symbols across a file or directory using strict regex or AST node analysis.
+- **Surgical Editing Tools:**
+  - **`cs_get_definition`:** Extract the full source code of a specific C# method, class, or property.
+  - **`cs_update_definition`:** Surgically replace the implementation of a specific C# method or class without relying on generic search-and-replace strings.
+  - **`cs_set_signature`:** Update only the signature (modifiers, return type, parameters) of a C# method.
+
+## Non-Functional Requirements
+- **Performance:** Parsing and skeleton generation should utilize the existing `mtime` invalidation cache to ensure near-instantaneous responses.
+- **Robustness:** The parser must gracefully handle malformed or incomplete C# code (e.g., during active development), returning as much structural information as possible rather than failing entirely.
+
+## Acceptance Criteria
+- [ ] A new suite of C#-specific tools (`cs_get_skeleton`, `cs_get_code_outline`, `cs_get_definition`, `cs_update_definition`) is registered and available via the MCP Client.
+- [ ] Automated tests verify that `cs_get_skeleton` correctly identifies namespaces, classes, methods, and C#-specific constructs (like attributes `[Serializable]` and properties `{ get; set; }`).
+- [ ] `cs_update_definition` successfully replaces a multi-line method body while maintaining the surrounding file structure and indentation.
+- [ ] The `tree-sitter-c-sharp` native dependency is successfully integrated into the python environment setup (`uv` / `requirements.txt`).
+
+## Out of Scope
+- Full language server protocol (LSP) features like deep cross-file type inference, semantic variable renaming, or Roslyn integration.
+- Automated code formatting or linting for C# (this relies on external ecosystem tools like `dotnet format`).

+# Specification: Data-Oriented Python Optimization Pass
+
+## Overview
+Perform an optimization pass and audit across the codebase (`./src` and `./simulation`), aligning the implementation with the Data-Oriented Design philosophy and the "less Python does the better" heuristic. Update the `product-guidelines.md` to formally document this approach for procedural Python code.
+
+## Functional Requirements
+1. **Update Product Guidelines:**
+   - Formalize the heuristic that Python should act primarily as a procedural semantic definer (similar to how ImGui defines a UI DAG), delegating heavy lifting.
+   - Enforce data-oriented guidelines for Python code structure, focusing on minimizing Python JIT overhead.
+2. **Codebase Audit (`./src` and `./simulation`):**
+   - Review global `src/` files and simulation logic against the new guidelines.
+   - Identify bottlenecks that violate these heuristics (e.g., heavy procedural state manipulation in Python).
+3. **Profiling & Instrumentation Expansion:**
+   - Expand existing profiling instrumentation (e.g., `performance_monitor.py` or diagnostic hooks) if currently insufficient for identifying real structural bottlenecks.
+4. **Optimization Execution:**
+   - Refactor identified bottlenecks to align with the new data-oriented Python heuristics.
+   - Re-evaluate performance post-refactor.
+5. **C Extension Evaluation (Last Resort):**
+   - If Python optimizations fail to meet performance thresholds, specifically identify and document routines that must be lowered to C/C++ with Python bindings. Only proceed with bindings if absolutely necessary.
+
+## Non-Functional Requirements
+- Maintain existing test coverage and strict type-hinting requirements.
+- Ensure 1-space indentation and ultra-compact style rules are not violated during refactoring.
+- Ensure the main GUI rendering thread is never blocked.
+
+## Acceptance Criteria
+- `product-guidelines.md` is updated with data-oriented procedural Python guidelines.
+- `src/` and `simulation/` undergo a documented profiling audit.
+- Identified bottlenecks are refactored to reduce Python overhead.
+- No regressions in automated simulation or unit tests.
+- A final report is provided detailing optimizations made and any candidates for future C extension porting.
+
+## Out of Scope
+- Actually implementing C/C++ bindings in this track (this track only identifies/evaluates them as a last resort; if needed, they get a separate track).
+- Major UI visual theme changes.

+# Specification: Discussion Hub Panel Reorganization
+
+## 1. Overview
+
+This track addresses the fragmented implementation of Session Context Snapshots and Discussion Takes & Timeline Branching tracks (2026-03-11). Those tracks were marked complete but the UI panel layout was not properly reorganized.
+
+**Goal:** Create a coherent Discussion Hub that absorbs Session Hub functionality, establishes Files & Media as project-level file inventory, and properly implements Context Composition and DAW-style Takes branching.
+
+## 2. Current State Audit (as of 2026-03-22)
+
+### Already Implemented (DO NOT re-implement)
+- `ui_summary_only` checkbox in Projects panel
+- Session Hub as separate window with tabs: Aggregate MD | System Prompt
+- Context Hub with tabs: Projects | Paths | Context Presets
+- Context Presets save/load mechanism in project TOML
+- `_render_synthesis_panel()` method (gui_2.py:2612-2643) - basic synthesis UI
+- Takes data structure in `project['discussion']['discussions']`
+- Per-file `Auto-Aggregate` and `Force Full` flags in Files & Media
+
+### Gaps to Fill (This Track's Scope)
+1. `ui_summary_only` is redundant with per-file flags - deprecate it
+2. Context Hub renamed to "Project Settings" (remove Context Presets tab)
+3. Session Hub merged into Discussion Hub as tabs
+4. Files & Media stays separate as project-level inventory
+5. Context Composition tab in Discussion Hub for per-discussion filter
+6. Context Presets accessible via Context Composition (save/load filters)
+7. DAW-style Takes timeline properly integrated into Discussion Hub
+8. Synthesis properly integrated with Take selection
+
+## 3. Panel Layout Target
+
+| Panel | Location | Purpose |
+|-------|----------|---------|
+| **AI Settings** | Separate dockable | Provider, model, system prompts, tool presets, bias profiles |
+| **Files & Media** | Separate dockable | Project-level file inventory (addressable files) |
+| **Project Settings** | Context Hub → rename | Git dir, paths, project list (NO context stuff) |
+| **Discussion Hub** | Main hub | All discussion-related UI (tabs below) |
+| **MMA Dashboard** | Separate dockable | Multi-agent orchestration |
+| **Operations Hub** | Separate dockable | Tool calls, comms history, external tools |
+| **Diagnostics** | Separate dockable | Telemetry, logs |
+
+**Discussion Hub Tabs:**
+1. **Discussion** - Main conversation view (current implementation)
+2. **Context Composition** - File/screenshot filter + presets (NEW)
+3. **Snapshot** - Aggregate MD + System Prompt preview (moved from Session Hub)
+4. **Takes** - DAW-style timeline branching + synthesis (integrated, not separate panel)
+
+## 4. Functional Requirements
+
+### 4.1 Deprecate ui_summary_only
+- Remove `ui_summary_only` checkbox from Projects panel
+- Per-file flags (`Auto-Aggregate`, `Force Full`) are the intended mechanism
+- Document migration path for users
+
+### 4.2 Rename Context Hub → Project Settings
+- Context Hub tab bar: Projects | Paths
+- Remove "Context Presets" tab
+- All context-related functionality moves to Discussion Hub → Context Composition
+
+### 4.3 Merge Session Hub into Discussion Hub
+- Session Hub window eliminated
+- Its content becomes tabs in Discussion Hub:
+  - **Snapshot tab**: Aggregate MD preview, System Prompt preview, "Copy" buttons
+  - These were previously in Session Hub
+
+### 4.4 Context Composition Tab (NEW)
+- Shows currently selected files/screenshots for THIS discussion
+- Per-file flags: Auto-Aggregate, Force Full
+- **"Save as Preset"** / **"Load Preset"** buttons
+- Dropdown to select from saved presets
+- Relationship to Files & Media:
+  - Files & Media = the inventory (project-level)
+  - Context Composition = selected filter for current discussion
+
+### 4.5 Takes Timeline (DAW-Style)
+- **New Take**: Start fresh discussion thread
+- **Branch Take**: Fork from any discussion entry
+- **Switch Take**: Make a take the active discussion
+- **Rename/Delete Take**
+- All takes share the same Files & Media (not duplicated)
+- Non-destructive branching
+- Visual timeline showing divergence points
+
+### 4.6 Synthesis Integration
+- User selects 2+ takes via checkboxes
+- Click "Synthesize" button
+- AI generates "resolved" response considering all selected approaches
+- Result appears as new take
+- Accessible from Discussion Hub → Takes tab
+
+## 5. Data Model Changes
+
+### 5.1 Discussion State Structure
+```python
+# Per discussion in project['discussion']['discussions']
+{
+    "name": str,
+    "history": [
+        {"role": "user"|"assistant", "content": str, "ts": str, "files_injected": [...]}
+    ],
+    "parent_entry": Optional[int],  # index of parent message if branched
+    "parent_take": Optional[str],   # name of parent take if branched
+}
+```
+
+### 5.2 Context Preset Format
+```toml
+[context_preset.my_filter]
+files = ["path/to/file_a.py"]
+auto_aggregate = true
+force_full = false
+screenshots = ["path/to/shot1.png"]
+```
+
+## 6. Non-Functional Requirements
+- All changes must not break existing tests
+- New tests required for new functionality
+- Follow 1-space indentation Python code style
+- No comments unless explicitly requested
+
+## 7. Acceptance Criteria
+
+- [ ] `ui_summary_only` removed from Projects panel
+- [ ] Context Hub renamed to Project Settings
+- [ ] Session Hub window eliminated
+- [ ] Discussion Hub has 4 tabs: Discussion, Context Composition, Snapshot, Takes
+- [ ] Context Composition allows save/load of filter presets
+- [ ] Takes can be branched from any entry
+- [ ] Takes timeline shows divergence visually
+- [ ] Synthesis works with 2+ selected takes
+- [ ] All existing tests still pass
+- [ ] New tests cover new functionality
+
+## 8. Out of Scope
+- Aggregation improvements (sub-agent summarization, hash-based caching) - separate future track
+- System prompt exposure (`_SYSTEM_PROMPT` in ai_client.py) - separate future track
+- Session sophistication (Session as container for multiple discussions) - deferred

+# Specification: Discussion Takes & Timeline Branching
+
+## 1. Overview
+This track introduces non-linear discussion timelines, allowing users to create multiple "takes" (branches) from a shared point in a conversation. It includes UI for managing these parallel timelines within a single discussion window and features a specialized synthesis workflow to merge ideas from multiple takes.
+
+## 2. Functional Requirements
+
+### 2.1 Timeline Branching (Takes)
+- **Message Branching:** Add a "Split/Branch from here" action on individual discussion messages.
+- **Tabbed Interface:** Branching creates a new "take," represented visually as a new tab within the same discussion session. The new tab shares the timeline history up to the split point.
+- **Take Promotion:** Allow users to promote any specific take into an entirely new, standalone discussion session.
+
+### 2.2 Take Synthesis Workflow
+- **Multi-Take Selection:** Provide a UI to select multiple takes from a shared split point for comparison and synthesis.
+- **Diff/Compressed Representation:** Develop a formatted representation (e.g., compressed diffs or parallel sequence summaries) that clearly highlights the differences between the selected takes.
+- **Synthesis Generation:** Feed the compressed representation of the differences to an AI agent along with a user prompt (e.g., "I liked aspects of both, do C with these caveats") to generate a new, synthesized take.
+
+## 3. Acceptance Criteria
+- [ ] Users can split a discussion from any message to create a new "take".
+- [ ] Takes are navigable via a tabbed interface within the discussion window.
+- [ ] A take can be promoted to a standalone discussion session.
+- [ ] Multiple takes can be selected and formatted into a compressed difference view.
+- [ ] An AI agent can successfully process the compressed take view to generate a synthesized continuation.

+# Specification: GDScript (Godot) MCP Tools
+
+## Overview
+Expand the Conductor's AI context-gathering and surgical editing capabilities by introducing full Tree-Sitter parsing support for GDScript (Godot's native scripting language). This will bring GDScript to feature-parity with the existing Python MCP tools, enabling deep AST-driven structural mapping, documentation extraction, and precise code modification.
+
+## Functional Requirements
+- **Grammar Integration:**
+  - Introduce a stable GDScript Tree-Sitter grammar (`tree-sitter-gdscript`) to the project's parsing environment via Python bindings (or the most robust available method) to generate deterministic Abstract Syntax Trees for `.gd` files.
+- **Structural Parsing Tools:**
+  - **`gd_get_skeleton`:** Extract a high-level view of a GDScript file, containing all class declarations, signals, exported variables, and function signatures with their associated docstrings, replacing function bodies with `pass` or `...`.
+  - **`gd_get_code_outline`:** Generate a hierarchical text outline showing line ranges for major structural elements (classes, functions, macros).
+- **Documentation & Context Tools:**
+  - **`gd_get_docstring`:** Extract the block comment/docstring immediately preceding a function or class definition.
+  - **`gd_find_usages`:** Locate usages of specific GDScript symbols/functions across a file or directory using AST or strict regex boundaries.
+- **Surgical Editing Tools:**
+  - **`gd_get_definition`:** Extract the full source code of a specific GDScript function or class definition.
+  - **`gd_update_definition`:** Surgically replace the implementation of a specific GDScript function without relying on generic search-and-replace strings.
+  - **`gd_set_signature`:** Update only the signature (parameters/return type) of a GDScript function.
+
+## Non-Functional Requirements
+- **Performance:** Parsing and skeleton generation should be heavily cached (using `mtime` invalidation) to ensure near-instantaneous responses, matching the current Python tool performance.
+- **Robustness:** The parser must gracefully handle malformed GDScript code, returning as much structural information as possible rather than failing entirely.
+
+## Acceptance Criteria

+# Specification: UI/UX Improvements - Presets and AI Settings
+
+## 1. Overview
+This track aims to improve the usability and visual layout of the Preset windows (Personas, Prompts, Tools) and the AI Settings panel. Key improvements include better layout scaling, consistent input controls, and categorized tool management.
+
+## 2. Functional Requirements
+
+### 2.1 Preset Windows (Personas, Prompts, Tools)
+- **Layout Scaling:** Implement improved resize and scaling policies for sub-panels and sections within each window to ensure they adapt well to different window sizes.
+- **Section Padding:** Increase and standardize padding between UI elements for better visual separation.
+- **Input Field Width:** Adjust the width of input boxes to provide adequate space for content while maintaining a balanced layout.
+- **Dual-Control Sliders:** All sliders for model parameters (Temperature, Top-P, etc.) must have a corresponding numeric input box for direct value entry.
+
+### 2.2 AI Settings Panel
+- **Visual Controls:** Implement visual sliders and knobs for key model parameters.
+- **Collapsed View Clarity:** Improve the visual representation when a preferred model entry is collapsed, ensuring key information is still visible or the transition is intuitive.
+
+### 2.3 Tool Management (MCP)
+- **Layout Refinement:** In the tools section, display the tool name first, followed by radio buttons with a small, consistent gap.
+- **Categorization:** Introduce category-based filtering or grouping (e.g., File I/O, Web, System) for easier management of large toolsets.
+
+## 3. Non-Functional Requirements
+- **Consistency:** UI patterns and spacing must be consistent across all modified windows.
+- **Performance:** Ensure layout recalculations and rendering remain fluid during resizing.
+
+## 4. Acceptance Criteria
+- [ ] Preset windows (Personas, Prompts, Tools) have improved scaling and spacing.
+- [ ] All sliders in the modified panels have corresponding numeric input boxes.
+- [ ] Tool names are displayed before radio buttons with consistent spacing.
+- [ ] AI Settings panel features improved visual controls and collapsed states.
+- [ ] Layout remains stable and usable across various window dimensions.
+
+## 5. Out of Scope
+- Major functional changes to the AI logic or tool execution.
+- Overhaul of the theme/color palette (unless required for clarity).

+# Specification: Session Context Snapshots & Visibility
+
+## 1. Overview
+This track focuses on transitioning from global context management to explicit session-scoped context. It introduces transparent visibility into the exact context (system prompts, aggregated markdown, files, and screenshots) used in a session, allows saving context selections as reusable presets, and adds MMA dashboard integration for filtering session hubs by specific agents.
+
+## 2. Functional Requirements
+
+### 2.1 Context Presets & Assignment
+- **Context Snapshots:** Users can save the current selection of files and screenshots as a named "Context Preset".
+- **Preset Swapping:** Users can easily load a Context Preset into an active session.
+- **MMA Assignment:** Allow assigning specific Context Presets to individual MMA agent personas, preventing all agents from having access to all files by default.
+
+### 2.2 Transparent Context Visibility
+- **No Hidden Context:** The Session Hub must expose the exact context provided to the model.
+- **Initial Payload Visibility:** The aggregated markdown content generated at the start of the discussion must be viewable in the UI.
+- **System Prompt State:** Display the fully resolved system prompt that was active for the session.
+- **Injection Timeline:** The UI must display *when* specific files or screenshots were injected or included during the progression of the discussion.
+
+### 2.3 Agent-Focused Session Filtering
+- **Dashboard Integration:** Move the "Focus Agent" feature from the Operations Hub to the MMA Dashboard.
+- **Agent Context Filtering:** Add a button on any live agent's panel in the MMA Dashboard that automatically filters the other hubs (Session/Discussion) to show only information related to that specific agent's session.
+
+## 3. Acceptance Criteria
+- [ ] Context selections (files/screenshots) can be saved and loaded as Presets.
+- [ ] MMA Agent Personas can be configured to use specific Context Presets.
+- [ ] The Session Hub displays the generated aggregate markdown and resolved system prompt.
+- [ ] The discussion timeline clearly shows when files/screenshots were injected.
+- [ ] The MMA Dashboard allows focusing the UI on a specific agent's session data.

+ "You are a helpful coding assistant with access to a PowerShell tool (run_powershell) and MCP tools (file access: read_file, list_directory, search_files, get_file_summary, web access: web_search, fetch_url). "
+ "When calling file/directory tools, always use the 'path' parameter for the target path. "
+ ...
+)
+```
+
+### Related State
+- `_custom_system_prompt` - user-defined append/injection
+- `_get_combined_system_prompt()` - merges both
+- `set_custom_system_prompt()` - setter for user portion
+
+### UI Current State
+- AI Settings → System Prompts shows global and project prompts
+- These are injected as `[USER SYSTEM PROMPT]` after `_SYSTEM_PROMPT`
+- But `_SYSTEM_PROMPT` itself is never shown
+
+## 3. Functional Requirements
+
+### 3.1 Base System Prompt Visibility
+- Add "Base System Prompt" section in AI Settings
+- Display current `_SYSTEM_PROMPT` content
+- Allow editing with syntax highlighting (it's markdown text)
+
+### 3.2 Default vs Custom Base
+- Maintain default base prompt as reference
+- User can reset to default if they mess it up
+- Show diff between default and custom
+
+### 3.3 Persistence
+- Custom base prompt stored in config or project TOML
+- Loaded on app start
+- Applied before `_custom_system_prompt` in `_get_combined_system_prompt()`
+
+### 3.4 Provider Considerations
+- Some providers handle system prompts differently
+- Verify behavior across Gemini, Anthropic, DeepSeek
+- May need provider-specific base prompts
+
+## 4. Data Model
+
+### 4.1 Config Storage
+```toml
+[ai_settings]
+base_system_prompt = """..."""
+use_default_base = true
+```
+
+### 4.2 Combined Prompt Order
+1. `_SYSTEM_PROMPT` (or custom base if enabled)
+2. `[USER SYSTEM PROMPT]` (from AI Settings global/project)
+3. Tooling strategy (from bias engine)
+
+## 5. UI Design
+
+**Location:** AI Settings panel → System Prompts section
+
+```
+┌─ System Prompts ──────────────────────────────┐
+│ ☑ Use Default Base System Prompt              │
+│                                              │
+│ Base System Prompt (collapsed by default):    │
+│ ┌──────────────────────────────────────────┐ │

+```
+
+When "Show Editor" clicked:
+- Expand to full editor for base prompt
+- Syntax highlighting for markdown

+
+## 6. Acceptance Criteria
+
+- [ ] `_SYSTEM_PROMPT` visible in AI Settings
+- [ ] User can edit base system prompt
+- [ ] Changes persist across app restarts

+# Specification: Advanced Text Viewer with Syntax Highlighting
+
+## Overview
+Enhance the existing "Text Viewer" popup panel in the Manual Slop GUI to support rich rendering, including syntax highlighting for various code types and Markdown rendering. The viewer will transition from a basic text/multiline input to a specialized component leveraging the project's hybrid rendering pattern.
+
+## Functional Requirements
+- **Rich Rendering Support:**
+  - **Code:** Integration with `ImGuiColorTextEdit` for syntax highlighting (Python, PowerShell, JSON, TOML, etc.).
+  - **Markdown:** Integration with `imgui_markdown` for rendering formatted text and documents.
+  - **Fallback:** Plain text rendering for unknown or unspecified types.
+- **Explicit Type Specification:**
+  - The component/function triggering the viewer (e.g., `_render_text_viewer`) must provide an explicit `text_type` parameter (e.g., "python", "markdown", "text").
+- **Enhanced UI Features:**
+  - **Line Numbers:** Display line numbers in the gutter when viewing code.
+  - **Copy Button:** A dedicated button to copy the entire content to the clipboard.
+  - **Independent Word Wrap:** A toggle within the viewer window to enable/disable word wrapping specifically for that instance, overriding the global GUI setting if necessary.
+  - **Persistent Sizing:** The viewer should maintain its size/position via ImGui's standard `.ini` persistence.
+
+## Technical Implementation
+- Update `App` state in `src/gui_2.py` to store `text_viewer_type`.
+- Modify `_render_text_viewer` signature to accept `text_type`.
+- Update the rendering loop in `_gui_func` to switch between `MarkdownRenderer` logic and `TextEditor` logic based on `text_viewer_type`.
+- Ensure proper caching of `TextEditor` instances to maintain scroll position and selection state while the viewer is open.
+
+## Acceptance Criteria
+- [ ] Clicking a preview button for a Python file opens the viewer with syntax highlighting and line numbers.
+- [ ] Clicking a preview for a `.md` file renders it as formatted Markdown.
+- [ ] The "Copy" button correctly copies text to the OS clipboard.
+- [ ] The word wrap toggle works immediately without affecting other panels.
+- [ ] Unsupported types gracefully fall back to standard plain text.

+# Specification: Rich Thinking Trace Handling
+
+## Overview
+Implement a formal system for parsing, storing, and rendering "agent thinking" monologues (chains of thought) within the Manual Slop GUI. Currently, thinking traces are treated as raw text or simple markers. This track will introduce a structured UI pattern to separate internal monologue from direct user responses while preserving both for future context.
+
+## Functional Requirements
+- **Multi-Format Parsing:** Support extraction of thinking traces from `<thinking>...</thinking>`, `<thought>...</thought>`, and blocks prefixed with `Thinking:`.
+- **Integrated UI Rendering:**
+  - In the **Comms History** and **Discussion Hub**, thinking traces must be rendered in a distinct, collapsible section.
+  - The section should be **Collapsed by Default** to minimize visual noise.
+  - Thinking traces must be visually separated from the "visible" response (e.g., using a tinted background, border, or specialized header).
+- **Persistent State Management:**
+  - Both the thinking monologue and the final response must be saved to the permanent discussion history (`manual_slop_history.toml` or `project_history.toml`).
+  - History entries must be properly tagged/schematized to distinguish between thinking and output.
+- **Context Recurrence:**
+  - Thinking traces must be included in subsequent AI turns (Full Recurrence) to maintain the model's internal state and logical progression.
+
+## Non-Functional Requirements
+- **Performance:** Parsing and rendering of thinking blocks must not introduce visible latency in the GUI thread.
+- **Accessibility:** All thinking blocks must remain selectable and copyable via the standard high-fidelity selectable UI pattern.
+
+## Acceptance Criteria
+- [ ] AI responses containing `<thinking>` or similar tags are automatically parsed into separate segments.
+- [ ] A "Thinking..." header appears in the Discussion Hub for messages with monologues.
+- [ ] Clicking the header expands the full thinking trace.
+- [ ] Saving/Loading a project preserves the distinction between thinking and response.
+- [ ] Subsequent AI calls receive the thinking trace as part of the conversation history.
+
+## Out of Scope
+- Implementing "Hidden Thinking" (where the user cannot see it but the AI can).
+- Real-time "Streaming" of thinking into the UI (unless already supported by the active provider).

+# Specification: Tree-Sitter Lua MCP Tools
+
+## Overview
+Expand the Conductor's AI context-gathering and surgical editing capabilities by introducing full Tree-Sitter parsing support for the Lua programming language. This will bring Lua to feature-parity with the existing Python MCP tools, enabling deep AST-driven structural mapping, documentation extraction, and precise code modification.
+
+## Functional Requirements
+- **Grammar Integration:**
+  - Introduce `tree-sitter-lua` (or a suitable native equivalent) to the project's parsing environment to generate deterministic Abstract Syntax Trees for Lua files.
+- **Structural Parsing Tools:**
+  - **`lua_get_skeleton`:** Extract a high-level view of a Lua file, containing all table/module declarations and function signatures with their associated comments, replacing function bodies with `...`.
+  - **`lua_get_code_outline`:** Generate a hierarchical text outline showing line ranges for major structural elements (functions, loops, distinct blocks).
+- **Documentation & Context Tools:**
+  - **`lua_get_docstring` (or comment block):** Extract the block comment immediately preceding a function or module definition.
+  - **`lua_find_usages`:** Locate usages of specific Lua symbols/functions across a file or directory using AST or strict regex boundaries.
+- **Surgical Editing Tools:**
+  - **`lua_get_definition`:** Extract the full source code of a specific Lua function or table definition.
+  - **`lua_update_definition`:** Surgically replace the implementation of a specific Lua function without relying on generic search-and-replace strings.
+  - **`lua_set_signature`:** Update only the signature (parameters) of a Lua function.
+
+## Non-Functional Requirements
+- **Performance:** Parsing and skeleton generation should be heavily cached (using `mtime` invalidation) to ensure near-instantaneous responses, matching the current Python tool performance.
+- **Robustness:** The parser must gracefully handle malformed Lua code, returning as much structural information as possible rather than failing entirely.
+
+## Acceptance Criteria
+- [ ] A new suite of Lua-specific tools (`lua_get_skeleton`, `lua_get_code_outline`, `lua_get_definition`, `lua_update_definition`) is available via the MCP Client.
+- [ ] Automated tests verify that `lua_get_skeleton` correctly identifies local functions, global functions, and table-assigned methods.
+- [ ] `lua_update_definition` can successfully replace a multi-line function body while maintaining the surrounding file structure and indentation.
+- [ ] The `tree-sitter-lua` grammar is successfully integrated into the build/setup pipeline.
+
+## Out of Scope
+- Full language server protocol (LSP) features like deep type inference or cross-file variable renaming.
+- Automated code formatting or linting for Lua (formatting relies on external ecosystem tools if needed).

+# Specification: Undo/Redo History Support
+
+## 1. Overview
+This track implements a robust, non-provider based Undo/Redo system within the Manual Slop GUI. It allows users to revert and redo common UI actions, focusing on text inputs, control states, and discussion structure, without impacting AI-generated content or remote state.
+
+## 2. Functional Requirements
+
+### 2.1 Supported Actions
+- **Text Inputs:** Undo/redo for system prompts, discussion entries, and any editable text boxes.
+- **UI Controls:** Revert changes to sliders (Temperature, Top-P), checkboxes, and preset selections.
+- **Discussion Structure:** Support undo/redo for deleting or inserting discussion entries.
+- **Context Management:** Undo/redo for additions and removals of context files and screenshots.
+
+### 2.2 History Management
+- **Capacity:** A fixed limit of 50-100 actions in the undo stack.
+- **Scope:** History is session-specific and not persisted between application restarts.
+- **Exclusions:** Actions triggering AI vendor API requests or MMA track progression are explicitly excluded from the undo system.
+
+### 2.3 User Interface
+- **Hotkeys:** Implementation of standard `Ctrl+Z` (Undo) and `Ctrl+Y` / `Ctrl+Shift+Z` (Redo) shortcuts.
+- **History List View:** A dedicated visual 'History List' panel showing recent actions, allowing users to jump back to specific points in the timeline.
+
+## 3. Non-Functional Requirements
+- **Low Overhead:** The history system must have minimal impact on UI responsiveness.
+- **Thread Safety:** Ensure state snapshots and restorations are thread-safe within the GUI loop.
+
+## 4. Acceptance Criteria
+- [ ] Users can undo and redo text edits in the system prompt and discussion fields.
+- [ ] UI control changes (sliders, presets) are correctly captured and restorable.
+- [ ] Discussion entry deletions/insertions can be reverted and redone.
+- [ ] Context additions/removals are tracked in the history.
+- [ ] `Ctrl+Z` and `Ctrl+Y` hotkeys work as expected.
+- [ ] The History List view accurately displays and allows jumping between states.
+
+## 5. Out of Scope
+- Undo/redo for AI model generations or vendor API calls.
+- Undo/redo for MMA execution state transitions.
+- Persistent history across application restarts.

+# Implementation Plan: Advanced Workspace Docking & Layout Profiles
+
+## Phase 1: Data Model & Persistence Engine
+- [ ] Task: Create a `WorkspaceProfile` dataclass in `src/models.py` to store INI string, `show_windows` dict, and panel states.
+- [ ] Task: Implement `WorkspaceManager` (similar to `PresetManager`) to handle saving/loading profiles from `config.toml` and `project.toml`.
+- [ ] Task: Write Tests: Verify the manager correctly merges global and project profiles and serializes the ImGui INI string properly.
+- [ ] Task: Conductor - User Manual Verification 'Phase 1: Data Model & Persistence Engine' (Protocol in workflow.md)
+
+## Phase 2: ImGui State Extraction & Restoration
+- [ ] Task: Implement methods in `src/gui_2.py` (or a helper module) to safely capture the current ImGui layout (`imgui.save_ini_settings_to_memory()`).
+- [ ] Task: Implement methods to safely restore layout (`imgui.load_ini_settings_from_memory()`) and apply the associated `show_windows` state.
+- [ ] Task: Write Tests: Verify using `live_gui` that saving a layout and loading it back does not cause crashes or assertion failures in the ImGui render loop.
+- [ ] Task: Conductor - User Manual Verification 'Phase 2: ImGui State Extraction & Restoration' (Protocol in workflow.md)
+
+## Phase 3: GUI Menu Integration
+- [ ] Task: Add a "Layout Profiles" menu under the main "Windows" or "View" menu bar in `src/gui_2.py`.
+- [ ] Task: Implement "Save Current Layout" modal (prompting for name and scope: Global/Project).
+- [ ] Task: Populate the menu with a dynamically generated list of available profiles to load.
+- [ ] Task: Conductor - User Manual Verification 'Phase 3: GUI Menu Integration' (Protocol in workflow.md)
+
+## Phase 4: Contextual Auto-Switch (Experimental)
+- [ ] Task: Add UI in "AI Settings" or "Operations Hub" to enable "Experimental: Auto-switch layout by Tier".
+- [ ] Task: Add UI to bind specific profiles to Tiers 1 through 4.
+- [ ] Task: Implement the event hook in `AppController` so that when the `active_tier` changes, the bound profile is automatically loaded if the feature is enabled.
+- [ ] Task: Conductor - User Manual Verification 'Phase 4: Contextual Auto-Switch (Experimental)' (Protocol in workflow.md)

+# Specification: Advanced Workspace Docking & Layout Profiles
+
+## Overview
+Expand the existing GUI window management to support named "Workspace Profiles." This will allow users to save, manage, and instantly switch between complex multi-window, multi-viewport docking arrangements.
+
+## Functional Requirements
+- **Comprehensive State Capture:**
+  - A Workspace Profile must capture:
+    - ImGui layout data (positions, sizes, docking nodes) usually stored in `imgui.ini`.
+    - Window visibility toggles (the `show_windows` dict and popout panel booleans).
+    - Relevant internal panel state (e.g., active tabs, split sizes if applicable).
+- **Storage & Scope:**
+  - Profiles follow a **Global + Project** inheritance model (similar to prompt presets). Global profiles are stored in `config.toml`, while project-specific profiles are stored in `manual_slop.toml` and can override global ones.
+  - The system starts blank (no pre-loaded templates).
+- **Trigger Mechanisms:**
+  - **Manual Menu:** A dedicated "Layout Profiles" sub-menu in the main menu bar (under "Windows" or "View") to save, load, and manage profiles.
+  - **Contextual Auto-Switch (Experimental):** An opt-in setting that automatically switches to a designated profile based on the active MMA Tier or task context (e.g., switching to a "QA" layout when a Tier 4 worker spawns).
+
+## Non-Functional Requirements
+- **ImGui INI Management:** Safely loading and saving raw ImGui INI strings using `imgui.load_ini_settings_from_memory` and `imgui.save_ini_settings_to_memory` without corrupting the active render frame.
+- **Graceful Fallback:** If a profile references a window that no longer exists, the layout engine should recover gracefully without crashing.
+
+## Acceptance Criteria
+- [ ] A user can arrange windows, dock them, and save the current state as a named Workspace Profile.
+- [ ] Selecting a saved profile instantly re-arranges windows, updates visibility toggles, and restores internal tab states.
+- [ ] Profiles can be scoped globally or to a specific project.
+- [ ] An experimental toggle allows binding profiles to specific MMA Tiers for automatic switching.
+
+## Out of Scope
+- Creating default templates (users will build their own).
+- Synchronizing layouts across different monitor resolutions (ImGui docking handles this best-effort, but pixel-perfect restoration on different hardware is out of scope).

+# Custom Shaders and Window Frame Architecture
+
+## 1. Shader Injection Strategy
+
+### Evaluation
+*   **Dear PyGui (Legacy):** Does not natively support raw GLSL/HLSL shader injection into the UI layer. It relies heavily on fixed-function vertex/fragment shaders compiled into the C++ core. Faux-shaders via DrawList are the only viable path without modifying the DPG source.
+*   **imgui-bundle (Current):** `imgui-bundle` utilizes `hello_imgui` as its application runner, which provides robust lifecycle callbacks (e.g., `callbacks.custom_background`, `callbacks.post_init`). Because `hello_imgui` exposes the underlying OpenGL context, we can use `PyOpenGL` alongside it to execute raw GLSL shaders.
+
+### Chosen Approach: Hybrid Faux-Shader & PyOpenGL FBO
+Given the Python environment, we will adopt a hybrid approach:
+1.  **Faux-Shaders (ImDrawList Batching):** Continue using `imgui.ImDrawList` primitives for simple effects like soft shadows, glows, and basic gradients (as seen in `src/shaders.py`). This is highly performant for UI elements and requires no external dependencies.
+2.  **True GPU Shaders (PyOpenGL + FBO):** For complex post-processing (CRT curvature, bloom, dynamic noise backgrounds), we will integrate `PyOpenGL`. 
+    *   We will compile GLSL shaders during `post_init`.
+    *   We will render the effect into a Framebuffer Object (FBO).
+    *   We will display the resulting texture ID using `imgui.image()` or inject it into the `custom_background` callback.
+
+*Note: This approach introduces `PyOpenGL` as a dependency, which is standard for advanced Python graphics.*
+
+## 2. Custom Window Frame Strategy
+
+### Evaluation
+*   **Native DWM Overloading (PyWin32):** It is possible to use `pywin32` to subclass the application window, intercept `WM_NCHITTEST`, and return `HTCAPTION` for a custom ImGui-drawn title bar region. This preserves Windows snap layouts and native drop shadows. However, it is strictly Windows-only and can conflict with GLFW/SDL2 event loops used by `hello_imgui`.
+*   **Borderless Window Mode (ImGui/GLFW):** `hello_imgui` allows configuring the main window as borderless/undecorated (`runner_params.app_window_params.borderless = True`). We must then manually draw the title bar, minimize/maximize/close buttons, and handle window dragging by updating the OS window position based on ImGui mouse drag deltas.
+
+### Chosen Approach: Pure ImGui Borderless Implementation
+To ensure cross-platform compatibility and avoid brittle Win32 hook collisions with `hello_imgui`, we will use the **Borderless Window Mode** approach.
+1.  **Initialization:** Configure `hello_imgui.RunnerParams` to disable OS window decorations.
+2.  **Title Bar Rendering:** Dedicate the top ~30 pixels of the ImGui workspace to a custom title bar that matches the current theme (e.g., NERV or standard).
+3.  **Window Controls:** Implement custom ImGui buttons for `_`, `[]`, and `X`, which will call native window management functions exposed by `hello_imgui` or `glfw`.
+4.  **Drag Handling:** Detect `imgui.is_mouse_dragging()` on the title bar region and dynamically adjust the application window position.
+
+## 3. Integration with Event Metrics
+Both the shader uniforms (time, resolution) and window control events will be hooked into the existing `dag_engine` and `events` systems to ensure minimal performance overhead and centralized configuration via `config.toml`.
