+# Phase 4: Timeline Editor Verification Report
+
+**Phase Goal:** Build a fully interactive timeline editor where users can visually place, move, resize, and configure animation blocks on a per-device track canvas with beat-sync support.
+**Verified:** 2026-04-06T23:59:00Z
+**Status:** PASSED (with deployment note)
+**Re-verification:** No — initial verification
+
+---
+
+## Goal Achievement
+
+### Observable Truths
+
+| # | Truth | Status | Evidence |
+|---|-------|--------|----------|
+| 1 | Per-device horizontal tracks display on a time axis; blocks can be placed from palette | VERIFIED | `TimelineCanvas.loadTracks()` builds tracks from `/api/devices`; `handleDrop()` creates `PlaceBlockCommand` at drop coordinates with snap; `dragstart`/`dragover`/`drop` wired in `app.js` |
+| 2 | Blocks can be moved, resized, and deleted; at least 20 undo/redo steps work | VERIFIED | `_startMove`, `_startResize`, Delete-key handler all fire through `CommandHistory(50)`; `MoveBlockCommand`, `ResizeBlockCommand`, `DeleteBlockCommand` all have execute/undo; overlap prevention in `_hasOverlap()` |
+| 3 | Beat detection runs and overlays beat marks; blocks snap to beat positions | VERIFIED | `BeatGrid.load()` fetches `/api/audio/beats`; `getCalibratedBeats()` applies offset; render() draws cyan lines; `snapToBeat()` delegates to `BeatGrid.snap()` with 100ms threshold; wired in drop, move, and resize mouseup |
+| 4 | Each block has a color picker and editable parameters; changes persist in show file | VERIFIED | `BlockInspector` renders color swatch, speed, direction, length; all changes fire `UpdateParamsCommand`; `syncBlock()` PATCHes `/api/shows/{show_id}/tracks/{device_id}/blocks/{block_id}` |
+| 5 | Playback cursor moves in realtime across the timeline as audio plays | VERIFIED | `render()` reads `this.audio.currentTime` inside `requestAnimationFrame` loop; cursor drawn at `timeToX(audio.currentTime)`; auto-scroll at 80% threshold |
+| 6 | Beat calibration offset control shifts all beat marks by configurable amount | VERIFIED | `#beat-offset` input updates `timeline.calibrationOffset` → proxied to `beatGrid.calibrationOffset`; `getCalibratedBeats()` subtracts offset at render time; raw `beatTimes` never mutated |
+
+**Score:** 6/6 truths verified

+### Key Link Verification
+
+| From | To | Via | Status | Evidence |
+|------|----|-----|--------|----------|
+| `timeline.js` | HTML5 audio element | `requestAnimationFrame` reads `audio.currentTime` for cursor | WIRED | Lines 247, 251, 255 read `this.audio.currentTime` in `render()` |
+| `timeline.js` | `/api/audio/waveform` | `fetch` in `loadWaveform()` | WIRED | Line 614: `fetch('/api/audio/waveform?path=...')` |

+| `commands.js` | `track.cues` | Commands mutate `track.cues` directly | WIRED | `PlaceBlockCommand.execute()` pushes to `track.cues`; `DeleteBlockCommand` filters `track.cues`; pattern used in all 5 command classes |
+| `timeline.js` | `history.js` | `timeline.history.execute(cmd)` for all mutations | WIRED | `this.history = new CommandHistory(50)` in constructor; `this.history.execute(cmd)` called at lines 446, 499, 567, 596 |
+| `commands.js` | `/api/shows/{show_id}/tracks/{device_id}/blocks` | Fire-and-forget fetch in `syncBlock()` | WIRED | `syncBlock()` uses `currentShowId` module-level var; called from every command's execute/undo |
+| `timeline.py` | `show.py` (CueModel) | CueModel creation and mutation in CRUD endpoints | WIRED | `from lightsync.models.show import TrackModel, CueModel` inside each POST handler |
+| `beats.js` | `/api/audio/beats` | `BeatGrid.load()` fetches beat data | WIRED | Line 23: `fetch('/api/audio/beats?path=...')` |

+
+### Data-Flow Trace (Level 4)
+
+| Artifact | Data Variable | Source | Produces Real Data | Status |
+|----------|---------------|--------|-------------------|--------|
+| `timeline.js` (block rendering) | `track.cues` | `PlaceBlockCommand.execute()` pushes block objects; `MoveBlockCommand`/`ResizeBlockCommand` mutate in-place | Yes — user-created blocks, not hardcoded | FLOWING |
+| `timeline.js` (waveform) | `this.waveformPeaks` | `fetch('/api/audio/waveform?...')` → `data.peaks` | Yes — backend computes from audio file | FLOWING |
+| `beats.js` (beat marks) | `this.beatTimes` | `fetch('/api/audio/beats?...')` → `data.beats \|\| data.beat_times` | Yes — librosa analysis; field name normalization handles API variant | FLOWING |
+| `timeline.js` (cursor) | `this.audio.currentTime` | HTML5 `<audio id="player">` element — native browser position | Yes — realtime audio clock | FLOWING |
+| `inspector.js` | `block.params` | `UpdateParamsCommand.execute()` uses `Object.assign(block.params, newParams)` | Yes — user edits, committed through command pattern | FLOWING |

+
+### Behavioral Spot-Checks
+
+| Behavior | Check | Result | Status |
+|----------|-------|--------|--------|
+| CueModel.duration defaults to 4.0 | `docker exec <container> python -c "from lightsync.models.show import CueModel; c = CueModel(timestamp=1.0); print(c.duration)"` | `4.0` | PASS |
+| AnalysisBlock.calibration_offset defaults to 0.03 | `docker exec <container> python -c "from lightsync.models.show import AnalysisBlock; a = AnalysisBlock(); print(a.calibration_offset)"` | `0.03` | PASS |
+| Timeline router registered in main.py | `grep "include_router.*timeline" lightsync/main.py` | `app.include_router(timeline.router, prefix="/api")` | PASS |
+| timeline.js exports TimelineCanvas | `grep "export.*TimelineCanvas" lightsync/frontend/timeline/timeline.js` | `export { TimelineCanvas };` | PASS |
+| Docker container has stale image (pre-Phase-4) | Container image missing `/app/lightsync/api/timeline.py` | `FileNotFoundError` — container built before Phase 4 commits | WARN (see note below) |
+| API endpoint accessibility (live container) | `curl http://localhost:8000/api/devices` | Redirect (Traefik proxy) — container running but not rebuilt | SKIP |
+
+**Deployment Note:** The running Docker container (`sha256:5fa579b`) was built before Phase 4 code was committed. It is missing `timeline.py` and all frontend timeline modules. This is a **deployment gap only** — the code in the git repo is complete and correct. The container must be rebuilt with `docker compose build && docker compose up -d` to make Phase 4 features live.

+### Requirements Coverage
+
+| Requirement | Source Plan | Description | Status | Evidence |
+|-------------|-------------|-------------|--------|----------|
+| TL-01 | 04-01 | Per-device horizontal tracks on a time axis | SATISFIED | `TimelineCanvas.loadTracks()` + `_drawTrackHeaders()` + `trackIndexToY()` render per-device rows |
+| TL-02 | 04-02 | Drag-and-place animation blocks onto a track | SATISFIED | `handleDrop()` + `dragstart/dragover/drop` listeners in `app.js` |
+| TL-03 | 04-02 | Move, resize, and delete animation blocks | SATISFIED | `_startMove()`, `_startResize()`, Delete keydown handler, all backed by commands |
+| TL-04 | 04-04 | Color picker per animation block | SATISFIED | `BlockInspector` renders color swatch + hidden `<input type="color">`; `UpdateParamsCommand` persists change |
+| TL-05 | 04-01 | Playback cursor tracking audio position in realtime | SATISFIED | `render()` draws cursor at `timeToX(audio.currentTime)` inside `requestAnimationFrame` loop |
+| TL-06 | 04-02 | Undo/redo for all timeline mutations (min 20 steps, command pattern) | SATISFIED | `CommandHistory(50)` with undoStack/redoStack/maxSteps; Ctrl+Z and Ctrl+Shift+Z wired in keydown handler |
+| TL-07 | 04-03 | Beat detection marks overlaid on timeline (librosa beat_track) | SATISFIED | `BeatGrid.load()` fetches `/api/audio/beats` (librosa backend); cyan lines rendered via `getCalibratedBeats()` |
+| TL-08 | 04-03 | Snap-to-beat when placing/resizing blocks | SATISFIED | `BeatGrid.snap()` with 100ms threshold called in `handleDrop()`, `_startMove()` mouseup, `_startResize()` mouseup |
+| SYNC-01 | 04-03 | Beat detection via librosa — beat timestamps and onset marks from loaded audio | SATISFIED | `BeatGrid` calls `/api/audio/beats`; onset marks rendered when `getCalibratedOnsets().length > 0`; graceful no-op if API returns no onset data |
+| SYNC-02 | 04-03 | Beat calibration offset UI control — compensate for librosa latency bias | SATISFIED | `#beat-offset` input (default 0.030s) wired to `timeline.calibrationOffset` → `beatGrid.calibrationOffset`; subtracted in `getCalibratedBeats()` at render time |
+
+All 10 requirements satisfied. No orphaned requirements found.
+
+---
+
+### Anti-Patterns Found
+
+| File | Line | Pattern | Severity | Impact |
+|------|------|---------|----------|--------|
+| `commands.js` | 5 | `let currentShowId = null` — blocks sync until `setCurrentShowId()` called | Info | Expected behavior: sync skipped when no show loaded (`if (!showId) return`) — documented, not a bug |
+| `app.js` | 379 | `initTimeline()` called at module level with no error boundary | Info | If `#timeline-canvas` or `#player` missing, `initTimeline()` returns early — guarded |
+
+No blocker or warning-level anti-patterns found. All `return null` and `return []` patterns are appropriately guarded (empty-state handling, not stub returns).
+
+---
+
+### Human Verification Required
+
+#### 1. Drag-and-Place from Animation Palette
+
+**Test:** With a device registered and audio loaded, drag an animation tile from the ANIMATIONS sidebar panel and drop it onto a device track in the canvas.
+**Expected:** Block appears at the drop position snapped to the nearest beat; inspector strip appears showing animation name, color swatch, speed/direction/length controls.
+**Why human:** Requires live browser with registered device; drag-and-drop cannot be automated via grep/file checks.
+
+#### 2. Block Move with Beat Snap
+
+**Test:** Click the center of a placed block and drag it; release near a beat mark position.
+**Expected:** Block snaps to the nearest beat position (within 100ms) on mouseup; canvas updates immediately.
+**Why human:** Mouse event simulation requires live canvas.
+
+#### 3. Block Resize (both handles)
+
+**Test:** Drag the right edge of a block to extend it; drag the left edge to shrink it.
+**Expected:** Right edge drag extends duration only; left edge drag shifts timestamp while right edge stays fixed; minimum 0.5s duration enforced.
+**Why human:** Canvas hit zone interaction requires live browser.
+
+#### 4. Undo/Redo Stress Test (50 steps)
+
+**Test:** Place 10 blocks, move 5, resize 5, delete 5. Then Ctrl+Z 25 times; then Ctrl+Shift+Z 25 times.
+**Expected:** All operations revert and re-apply correctly without state corruption.
+**Why human:** Extended interactive session required.
+
+#### 5. Overlap Rejection
+
+**Test:** Attempt to place a block at a position that overlaps an existing block on the same track.
+**Expected:** The overlapping block is not placed; the ghost preview disappears without a block appearing.
+**Why human:** Requires live drag interaction to test `_hasOverlap()` rejection path.
+
+#### 6. Beat Detection Workflow
+
+**Test:** Load an audio file; observe the timeline during analysis.
+**Expected:** "DETECTING BEATS..." text appears in timeline briefly; then cyan vertical lines appear at beat positions; BPM label updates in header (e.g., "120 BPM"); BEAT OFFSET slider shifts marks left/right in realtime.
+**Why human:** Requires audio file + backend librosa analysis + visual inspection.
+
+#### 7. Inspector Color Picker and Undo
+
+**Test:** Select a block, click the color swatch, change color, then press Ctrl+Z.
+**Expected:** Block fill on canvas shows new color accent immediately; Ctrl+Z reverts to original color; inspector color swatch updates to match.
+**Why human:** Native browser color picker requires live browser interaction.
+
+#### 8. Inspector Remove Button
+
+**Test:** Select a block, click the "×" remove button in the inspector.
+**Expected:** Block is deleted from the canvas; inspector strip hides; Ctrl+Z restores the block.
+**Why human:** Requires live block selection state.
+
+#### 9. Container Rebuild and Deployment
+
+**Test:** `cd /home/claude/led2 && docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml build && docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml up -d`
+**Expected:** Rebuilt container includes `timeline.py` in API layer and all frontend timeline modules; navigating to the app URL shows the timeline canvas with toolbar (ZOOM, BEAT OFFSET, SNAP) instead of the old animation grid.
+**Why human:** Container rebuild requires manual execution; the currently running container is a stale pre-Phase-4 build and Phase 4 features are not accessible until rebuilt.
+
+---
+
+## Gaps Summary
+
+No code gaps. All Phase 4 artifacts are present in the git repository, substantive (no stubs), and correctly wired to each other and to backend APIs. The command pattern, undo/redo, beat detection, inspector, and data flow are all implemented as specified.
+
+**One deployment action is required:** The Docker container must be rebuilt. The currently running container image predates all Phase 4 commits and is missing `lightsync/api/timeline.py` and all `lightsync/frontend/timeline/` modules. This is a deployment state issue, not a code issue — the source code is complete.
