## Accumulated Context

### Decisions

Decisions are logged in PROJECT.md Key Decisions table.
Recent decisions affecting current work:

- Init: Web UI over TUI — richer DAW interactions while keeping terminal aesthetic via CSS
- Init: python-mpv-jsonipc preferred over ctypes binding — no libmpv.dll dependency on Windows
- Init: Firmware deferred to Phase 7 — protocol must be validated against simulator first
- Init: undo/redo built in Phase 4 — retrofitting command pattern is expensive

### Pending Todos

None yet.

### Blockers/Concerns

- Phase 2: python-mpv-jsonipc latency on Windows 11 under load is unbenchmarked — validate with timing harness in 02-01
- Phase 4: librosa MP3 loading path on Windows needs explicit validation (soundfile falls back to audioread which requires FFmpeg on PATH)
- Phase 6: AI sync approach (LLM-assisted) has no reference implementation — treat as spike, not commitment
