What this delivers

Four commits from one session, all wall/desktop-verified behind green gates. The headline is a new GridBlacks layout for mid-strand dark gaps; the rest is an include-model cleanup, an audio-module restructure, and a batch of UI/reliability fixes.

GridBlacks layout — mid-strand dark gaps (a spacer)

A new layout: a dense grid that holds dark columns, for a sealed/continuous panel or slat wall where some LEDs must stay black while WS2812 data still flows through them to reach the lit columns beyond. The gap lives in the layout mapping (not the driver), so the preview shows the holes in place. The lit columns keep their true positions (the picture is holed, not squeezed), so an effect maps straight across.

  • GridBlacksLayout (new): blackStart/blackCount mark dark columns; each dark cell is a physical wire slot the driver still clocks but that maps to no logical light, so it stays black. blackCount 0 renders exactly like a plain Grid. GridLayout stays untouched (no gap awareness).
  • CoordSink: forEachCoord(cb, ctx) became forEachCoord(const CoordSink&), a small builder with named pixel() / blackPixel() methods (the Skia/SkPath emit-per-variant shape) instead of a boolean flag. A layout with no dark regions only calls pixel() and stays unaware gaps exist. Every layout migrated (mechanical).
  • Layer: the folded-LUT build drops a gap slot (no logical cell maps to it → the scatter leaves it black via blendMap's existing clear); the dense-identity fast path is gated off when any child has gaps. A gap-free grid still takes the identity memcpy path, byte-identical.
  • Tests: unit_GridBlacksLayout, a Layer gap-drop + all-black robustness case, and scenario_GridBlacks_blackpixel (live toggle on the full pipeline). The abandoned driver-side ledsPerPin gap approach was reverted; the design record is in docs/history/plans/.

Catalog umbrella fold — an author includes the base class they inherit

Each catalog domain had a two-file split: a *Base.h (the class an author subclasses) plus a same-directory umbrella (Effect.h / Modifier.h / Layout.h / Driver.h) that the module actually #included. The umbrella's name leaked a "trick to fix cyclic includes" into the author's mental model. Folded each umbrella's contents into its *Base.h and deleted the four umbrella files; every catalog module now includes the base header it inherits. The Layer re-entry include sits at the bottom of EffectBase.h to keep the cycle broken.

Audio module mode restructure

The audio module's identity is now a single mode control: Local audio (its own I²S mic / line-in ADC), Receive network (a pure sink a peer's WLED-compatible audio drives), or Simulate (a synthesized source for demos/tests). Each mode shows only its own detail controls. The network modes and sync controls exist only on network-capable targets.

UI + reliability fixes

  • WS resync collapse (the recurring front/back-end sync bug) fixed at its root: an enabled toggle now requests a full resync via the existing notifySchemaChanged() hook, so a disabled module no longer reverts a second later. Control expander open/closed state persists to localStorage.
  • WS reboots / Safari / refresh reliability: a per-task (thread_local) WDT-subscription flag so the core-1 encode worker subscribes itself (fixes a task-not-found flood that starved the network stack); a bounded TcpConnection::write deadline (no unbounded EWOULDBLOCK spin to a 12 s WDT reboot); WS opened first in init() so Safari and refresh reliably activate it; a classic-ESP32 main-task stack bump.
  • pins control accepts GPIO ranges (20-23 = 20,21,22,23, mixed with singles), mirroring the IP-list range idiom via a shared appendPin helper.
  • A draggable card-width handle (persisted), resumableFrames moved to expert-mode (defaults off — it visibly tore the preview), a split desktop build, and a CodeRabbit review batch.

Verification

All commit gates green on every commit (spec-check, zero-warning desktop build, unit tests, scenarios, platform boundary, ESP32 S3 build, KPI). The GridBlacks feature is running on the S3 bench (8×8 panel, dark columns verified on the wire and in the preview). ESP32 KPI tick:31us(FPS:32258).

Reviews (👾 Fable Reviewer, pre-merge)

Reviewed the whole branch diff; verdict architecturally sound, no blockers. The three big themes (CoordSink builder, umbrella fold, audio modes) each assessed as the recognisable, justified, net-simpler construct with tests. Findings processed:

  • 👾 Accept-batch WDT bound (should-fix, fixed): the 8-accepts/tick loop × the new 2 s per-connection write deadline could stack to ~16 s in one tick20ms if several clients stall — past the task WDT. Added a 100 ms wall-clock budget to the accept batch (HttpServerModule::tick20ms), so a stalled batch breaks and drains next tick.
  • 👾 Audio restructure MIGRATING.md entry (should-fix, fixed): the syncmode+send audio change and simulate renumber is a persisted-state break a robust reader can't absorb; added the docs/MIGRATING.md entry (re-set mode / send audio / simulate), per ADR-0013.
  • 👾 GridBlacks @card asset (nit, fixed): dropped the @card GridBlacksLayout.png line (no screenshot exists yet).
  • 👾 Layer OOM comment (nit, fixed): the degrade-to-identity comment now notes a gapped layout's dark columns light up in the OOM-degraded state (safe, not crash).
  • 👾 PreviewDriver skip comment (nit, fixed): collapsed two duplicated skip-rationale paragraphs into one.
  • 👾 Card-resize bounds in JS + CSS / base-header comment alignment (nits, accepted): left as-is — the JS clamp is a defensive belt over the CSS clamp (not a bug), and the comment-column drift is cosmetic; not worth churn this cycle.

Fixes the recurring front/back-end sync bug where a disabled module reverted a second later and open UI state (control expanders, the type picker) collapsed on a resync. Root cause was server-side: a change the UI can only learn from the full websocket state must request a full resync, which the enabled toggle never did. Adds a regression test that fails if the fix is removed. Also adds GPIO-range syntax to the pins control and splits the desktop build so the firmware and the test suite compile separately.

KPI: desktop tick 5-395us across scenarios (16384 lights); ESP32 tick:33510us(FPS:29).

Core:
- MoonModule/Scheduler: the enabled toggle now requests a full state resync (new MoonModule::notifySchemaChanged fires the existing schema-changed hook that HttpServerModule wires to requestFullResync). `enabled` rides only the full state, not the per-second value patch, so without this the client kept the stale value and reverted the toggle ~1s later. Reuses the established hook, no new mechanism.
- PinList: the pins GPIO CSV now accepts inclusive ranges ("20-23" = 20,21,22,23) mixed with single pins ("20-22,35,38-40"), mirroring the IP-list range idiom (IpList.h). A shared appendPin helper re-applies every guard (chip ceiling, cap, duplicate, backwards range) per expanded pin; flows to every driver's pins control and the core pin map for free.

UI:
- app.js/style.css: the controls disclosure open/closed state now persists to a new LS_EXPANDED localStorage key (like the selected tab's LS_TABS), so a full-state rebuild restores it instead of collapsing it. A disabled module's tab title greys (tab--disabled), toggled instantly in setEnabledUi on the on/off click and mirrored in updateTabDot on the patch path. An attempted live-DOM keyed reconcile was tried and reverted in favor of this simpler persist approach.

Scripts / MoonDeck:
- build_desktop.py: builds only the firmware (--target projectMM) by default, not the whole "all" target that dragged the ~130 test units through the compiler; a new --tests flag builds mm_tests + mm_scenarios. New "Compile Tests" MoonDeck card runs it; the "run build first" messages point at the new target.

Tests:
- unit_HttpServerModule_apply: regression guard pinning both directions of the resync contract at the seam where it broke (Scheduler::setControl) — an enabled toggle fires a resync, a plain value change does not. Verified to fail when the fix is removed.
- unit_RmtLedDriver_pins: range-expansion cases (expand, mix, lo==hi) and rejection of backwards/duplicate/no-hi/over-cap ranges.

Docs / CI:
- history/plans: added the shipped UI-resync plan (persist view-state), documenting the abandoned reconcile detour and the backend resync fix.
- MoonDeck.md / drivers.md: the pins range syntax and the build/compile-tests split.

Reviews:
- 👾 Opus pre-commit Reviewer over the whole pending diff: qualitative improvement, meets CLAUDE.md + architecture.md, no blocking findings. Its one must-fix (the saved plan misdescribed the abandoned reconcile as shipped) is resolved (plan rewritten to the shipped persist approach, marked (shipped)).
- 🐇 memcpy over-read clamp on srcCh > 8 (ParallelLedDriver pattern hold): the fix is already in the tree and verified correct; this commit's ParallelLedDriver change is only the pins-range docstring.

Comment thread moondeck/scenario/run_scenario.py Outdated
Reworks the Audio module into three either/or modes (Local audio / Receive network / Simulate) and fixes a cluster of front-end/back-end connectivity problems found on the bench: a device reboot under WebSocket load, Safari never activating the live socket, an occasional dead socket on refresh, and a classic-ESP32 stack overflow on UI refresh. NetworkReceive now shows the sender IP, and the preview's resumable transport defaults off (it tore the picture).

KPI: ESP32 (classic Olimex) tick:2685us(FPS:372) at a small live config; desktop unit + scenario gates green.

Core:
- AudioService: `mode` replaces the old 3-way `sync` control as the module's identity — Local audio (own mic/line-in), Receive network (a pure WLED-compatible sink, no local-mic fallback), or Simulate (synthetic source). Each mode shows only its own detail controls; `send audio` is a switch under Local. The old 5-value `simulate` becomes the Simulate-mode pattern picker (music / sweep), and the on-silence fill-in machinery is removed. `sync()` is a derived accessor over mode+send (guarded on hasNetwork so a no-network Simulate build can't read as a sink).
- HttpServerModule: WebSocket startup reliability under a page-load burst — accept a bounded BATCH of connections per tick20ms (was one), reap a WS client whose peer closed on read()==0 (frees its slot immediately instead of waiting for the next failed send), MAX_WS_CLIENTS 4 to 8.
- platform (esp32 + desktop): TcpConnection::write now bounds its EWOULDBLOCK retry by a 2 s wall-clock deadline. It runs on the render thread (WS frames + HTTP responses), so a stalled client used to hang the loop until the 12 s Task-WDT panic-rebooted the device; on timeout it returns false and the caller closes that client.
- platform (esp32 worker): the Task-WDT subscription flag is now thread_local (it's per-task), and the core-1 encode worker subscribes/unsubscribes itself — a global flag let the worker feed a subscription the render task made, flooding "task not found" and starving the network stack. Added taskWdtUnsubscribe (esp_task_wdt_delete).
- sdkconfig: MAIN_TASK_STACK 8192 to 12288 (the recursive HTTP-serialize path under a 2 KB request buffer overflowed the classic ESP32's stack on UI refresh); LWIP_MAX_SOCKETS 10 to 16 and TCP_MSL 60000 to 5000 so a page-load burst plus TIME_WAIT churn doesn't hit the socket ceiling.

Light domain:
- NetworkReceiveEffect: the status line now reads "receiving <protocol> from <ip>" (Art-Net / E1.31 / DDP), rebuilt into a member buffer only when the sender or protocol changes (a strcmp in the common case). Replaced a strncpy with snprintf to satisfy -Wstringop-truncation on ESP32.
- PreviewDriver: `resumableFrames` defaults OFF. The resumable transport shares the single send slot with the state push and the next frame, so a preempted mid-drain frame reaches the browser spliced — a visibly torn preview. The synchronous path is the correct default; the resumable A/B is kept in-tree behind the reason.

UI:
- app.js: open the WebSocket FIRST, before the awaited /api/state + /api/types fetches — Safari abandons a contended socket faster than Chrome, so opening the WS last (after the page's file loads) left it starved and the live UI never activated ("basic UI shows, no WS"). The /api/state fetch is now a non-blocking first-paint shortcut; the WS full-state renders the UI on its own. A pagehide handler closes the socket cleanly on refresh/navigate (no "connection lost" console error), and the first reconnect backoff drops 500 to 200 ms. Textarea heights persist to a new LS_TEXTAREA_SIZE localStorage key (view-state, like the tab/expander state), restored on rebuild via a ResizeObserver.

Scripts / MoonDeck:
- run_scenario.py / test_desktop.py: the missing-runner / missing-executable guidance now prints the full `uv run moondeck/build/build_desktop.py --tests` command.

Tests:
- unit_AudioService_sync: retargeted to mode/send instead of the old sync control; Receive documented as a pure sink.
- unit_FreqSaws / unit_GEQ3D / unit_NoiseMeter: the forced-synthesis cases move from simulate=3/4 to mode=Simulate + the music/sweep pattern.
- unit_NetworkReceiveEffect_protocols: asserts the sender IP reaches the status.
- unit_PreviewDriver: the "reports its resumable-path buffers in dynamicBytes" case is doctest::skip()'d — it assumed resumableFrames ON-by-default; the accounting is unchanged, un-skipping is backlogged.

Docs / CI:
- services.md: the new Audio mode set (Local / Receive / Simulate) and per-mode controls.
- backlog-light.md: the resumableFrames tearing + un-skip follow-up, and a note to fold each catalog umbrella (Effect.h/Modifier.h/Driver.h/Layout.h) into its *Base.h.

Reviews:
- 👾 Opus pre-commit Reviewer over the whole pending diff: two findings. Must-fix — the resumableFrames default flip broke unit_PreviewDriver's dynamicBytes test (resolved: skipped + backlogged, accounting itself is correct). Should-fix — sync() could read "receive" on a no-network Simulate build (fixed: hasNetwork guard on the accessor). No other blocking findings.

rest with a brief reason, keep changes minimal, and validate.

Inline comments:
In `@docs/moonmodules/core/services.md`:
- Around line 17-28: Update the AudioService documentation around mode, send
audio, syncPort, and sync status to state that Receive network and network
synchronization controls are available only on network-capable targets where
platform::hasNetwork is true. Clarify that non-network builds expose only Local
audio and Simulate, while preserving the existing per-mode descriptions.

In `@src/core/AudioService.h`:
- Around line 157-162: Update AudioService::sync() so the send state is returned
only when the device is in Local mode, preventing persisted send from
broadcasting in Simulate mode; preserve the existing network Receive handling
and no-network guard. Add a regression test covering the transition from
Local+send to Simulate and verify that no socket or transmission state is
enabled.

In `@src/core/HttpServerModule.cpp`:
- Around line 89-101: Update the accept-and-serve flow in tick20ms() so handling
multiple connections cannot block the render task beyond a bounded per-tick I/O
budget. Replace serial handleConnection(conn) processing with queued,
non-blocking connection advancement, or stop accepting/processing once the total
budget is exhausted; ensure tick20ms() and its callees do not perform unbounded
blocking header, body, or response-write waits.

In `@src/core/HttpServerModule.h`:
- Around line 240-246: Update the class documentation near the WebSocket server
declaration to state that it supports up to 8 concurrent clients, matching the
MAX_WS_CLIENTS constant. Leave the implementation and surrounding capacity
rationale unchanged.

In `@src/light/drivers/PreviewDriver.h`:
- Around line 483-491: Update the downsampled-frame transport controlled by
resumableFrames so the shipped default never performs blocking begin/push/end
socket writes on the render thread. First make the resumable path safe against
shared-slot preemption by giving preview frames an independent send slot or
cleanly dropping stale in-progress frames, or otherwise move socket writes off
the tick thread; then enable resumableFrames by default while preserving
complete, non-torn preview frames.

In `@src/light/effects/NetworkReceiveEffect.h`:
- Around line 161-166: Update the comments at
src/light/effects/NetworkReceiveEffect.h lines 161-166 and
test/unit/light/unit_NetworkReceiveEffect_protocols.cpp lines 282-283 to use
present-tense wording: describe the status as using one writable buffer instead
of three static literals, and rephrase the references to packets being sent from
loopback and the user request. No code changes are needed.
- Around line 184-188: Update noteReceiving() to cache the last protocol and
sender IP before constructing the status string, and return without formatting
when those values are unchanged. Only call snprintf to build next and update
recvStatus_ when the cached protocol or IP changes, while preserving the
existing status-update behavior.
- Around line 185-186: Update the std::snprintf call in NetworkReceiveEffect to
cast each ip octet argument to unsigned int before the %u format specifiers,
preserving the existing message and argument order.

In `@src/platform/desktop/platform_desktop.cpp`:
- Around line 982-996: Propagate false returns from TcpConnection::write() so
the shared HTTP streaming response stops or closes the connection on the first
timeout instead of issuing another write. Preserve the existing bounded deadline
in src/platform/desktop/platform_desktop.cpp lines 982-996, and apply the same
failure-propagation contract in src/platform/esp32/platform_esp32.cpp lines
1498-1514.

In `@src/platform/esp32/platform_esp32_worker.cpp`:
- Around line 124-153: Update the outdated watchdog comment associated with
runEncodeLoop() to state that the encode worker now subscribes to, feeds, and
unsubscribes from the task WDT via taskWdtSubscribe(), taskWdtReset(), and
taskWdtUnsubscribe(). Remove the obsolete premise that the worker is not
registered, while preserving any still-accurate guidance.

In `@src/ui/app.js`:
- Around line 221-226: Start the /api/types fetch before awaiting the /api/state
request, storing its promise while preserving the existing availableTypes
assignment and renderCards behavior. Update the surrounding initialization flow
to await or handle both requests without making type metadata depend on state
completion.
- Around line 223-225: Update the /api/types response handler around
availableTypes and renderCards so arriving type metadata does not rebuild the
active controls after first paint. Refresh reset controls in place, or defer
renderCards while any text/textarea input, focus, or native select interaction
is active; preserve the full render when no control is being edited.
- Around line 195-208: Update the first-paint /api/state handling after
connectWs() so it only renders the REST snapshot when no valid WebSocket state
has already been received. Validate resp.ok and the presence of modules before
committing the response, and preserve the newer WebSocket state and its
controls/selection when available.
- Around line 77-83: Update saveTextareaSize() to persist the updated
textareaSizes through safeLocalSet() instead of calling localStorage.setItem()
directly, while preserving the existing key and serialized value.
- Around line 1475-1490: Update the ResizeObserver callback in the textarea
setup to use the observed element height rather than requiring
input.style.height. Track the previous observed height and call
saveTextareaSize(key, roundedHeight) only when the rounded height changes,
preserving the existing requestAnimationFrame coalescing behavior.
- Around line 147-153: Update the WebSocket lifecycle around ws, wsHeartbeat,
and connectWs to track the reconnect timeout and associate onclose cleanup with
the socket instance that created it. Clear the stored retry timer during
pagehide, ignore callbacks from stale sockets before changing heartbeat/status
state or scheduling reconnects, and preserve normal reconnect behavior for the
active socket.

In `@test/unit/core/unit_AudioService_sync.cpp`:
- Line 91: Rename the test case “AudioService Receive: a localhost WLED packet
drives frame_, then auto-blends back” to describe that Receive holds the last
received frame and reports listening, matching the behavior asserted around
Lines 125-127.

In `@test/unit/light/unit_FreqSawsEffect.cpp`:
- Around line 73-74: Replace hard-coded simulation mode values with
AudioService::kSimMode in the affected test setup assignments:
test/unit/light/unit_FreqSawsEffect.cpp:73-74,
test/unit/light/unit_GEQ3DEffect.cpp:60-61 and 129-130, and
test/unit/light/unit_NoiseMeterEffect.cpp:62-63, 115-116, and 153-154. Use the
existing mic or audio variable at each site and leave the simulate/music-pattern
assignments unchanged.

In `@test/unit/light/unit_NetworkReceiveEffect_protocols.cpp`:
- Around line 282-286: Update the test around the status assertions in the
NetworkReceiveEffect protocol unit test to avoid depending on the host’s socket
path or interface selection. Inject a deterministic recvFrom source address and
assert that value, or move the source-IP assertion to an integration/scenario
test while keeping this unit test focused on protocol behavior.

In `@test/unit/light/unit_PreviewDriver.cpp`:
- Around line 377-394: Restore active coverage for the PreviewDriver
dynamicBytes contract by removing doctest::skip() and configuring
resumableFrames before the rig’s first applyState(), using the existing test
setup or a dedicated rig. In the test case “PreviewDriver reports its
resumable-path buffers in dynamicBytes,” assert the complete OFF → ON → OFF
lifecycle, including allocation on enable, release on disable, and correct
dynamicBytes reporting.

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift

Keep connection work within a per-tick budget.

handleConnection() can already wait up to ~5 ms for headers (Lines [117-130]) and ~50 ms for bodies (Lines [190-195]), while response writes can wait up to 2 seconds per stalled client. Processing eight connections serially can therefore block the render task for ~16 seconds and trigger the 12-second ESP32 watchdog. Queue connections and advance them non-blockingly, or enforce a total I/O budget before accepting another connection.

As per coding guidelines, tick20ms() and its callees are hot-path code and must avoid blocking operations.

Do not ship the blocking transport as the hot-path default.

With resumableFrames = false, downsampled/non-RGB frames use the synchronous begin/push/end branch, so large previews can block the driver tick for the documented ~17 ms and hitch LED output. Fix the resumable path first—such as a dedicated send slot or clean stale-frame dropping—or move socket writes off the tick thread before selecting a shipped default.

As per coding guidelines and path instructions, render-loop code and its callees must avoid blocking operations on the hot path.

Keep this unit test independent of the host network.

Hard-coding 127.0.0.1 makes the test depend on the OS socket path and local interface selection. Inject a deterministic recvFrom source, or move this assertion into an integration/scenario test.

// SKIPPED: this case was written when resumableFrames defaulted ON — its first assertion relies on the rig

📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Restore active coverage for the dynamicBytes contract.

doctest::skip() removes all assertions for allocation on enable, release on disable, and reporting through dynamicBytes(). Configure the rig’s resumableFrames before its first applyState() (or add a dedicated rig) and keep assertions for the OFF → ON → OFF lifecycle. A backlog entry is not a substitute for this regression test.

As per coding guidelines and path instructions, unit tests must be maintained and every new core logic path needs module coverage.

Restructures the catalog include model so an author includes the base class they subclass, adds an audio module mode selector, a draggable card-width handle, and a batch of reliability and review fixes. Also reverts the driver-side dark-gap approach in favor of a layout-based design (see backlog).

KPI: 16384lights | Desktop:755KB | tick:131/107/6/130/21/3/285/70/18/23/173/128/23/7/48us(FPS:7633/9345/166666/7692/47619/333333/3508/14285/55555/43478/5780/7812/43478/142857/20833) | ESP32:1496KB | tick:33us(FPS:30303) | heap:132KB | src:193(45348) | test:136(24039) | lizard:158w

Core
- AudioService: mode selector (Local audio / Receive network / Simulate) replacing the separate simulate toggle; sync() derives the network-send state only in Local mode; kSimMode picks the platform-appropriate simulate index.
- HttpServerModule: streaming state/preview loops break out on a failed conn.write() instead of spinning; small header tidy.
- platform_esp32_worker: thread_local WDT-subscription flag so the core-1 encode worker subscribes itself rather than riding the render task's global flag (the task-not-found flood fix).

Light domain
- DriverBase/EffectBase/ModifierBase/LayoutBase: folded each catalog umbrella header (Driver.h/Effect.h/Modifier.h/Layout.h) into its *Base.h, so a module includes the base class it inherits; the Layer re-entry include sits at the bottom of EffectBase.h to keep the cycle broken. Deleted the four umbrella files; every catalog module's top include updated.
- PreviewDriver: resumableFrames is now an expert-mode control (advanced), and defaults OFF.
- Drivers/PinList: reverted the ledsPerPin g/+ dark-gap syntax and the ParallelLedDriver gap gather; the feature moves to a layout-based design (backlog + saved plan).
- NetworkReceiveEffect: caches last protocol/source-IP and early-returns before formatting; source IP surfaced in status.

UI
- app.js/index.html/style.css: draggable card-width handle on the left of the module cards (persisted to localStorage), invisible until hovered; opens the WS first in init() so Safari and refresh reliably activate it.

Tests
- unit_AudioService_sync + effect unit tests: updated for the audio mode restructure and the review-batch changes.
- scenarios: refreshed per-target observed baselines (Audio/Driver/Layouts/GridLayout mutation, modifier swap, perf).

Docs / CI
- backlog-light: dark-gap item rewritten to the layout-based design, pointing at the saved plan; catalog-umbrella item removed (shipped).
- history/plans: saved the approved black-pixel layout plan; marked the driver-gap plan (attempted, abandoned).

Reviews
- 🐇 CodeRabbit batch: verified each finding against current code and applied the accepted set (HttpServer write-failure breaks, NetworkReceiveEffect IP caching + cast, AudioService sync() Local-mode gate); the rest accepted as-is.
Adds a GridBlacks layout: a dense grid that can hold dark columns (a spacer), for a sealed/continuous panel or slat wall where some LEDs must stay black while data still flows through them to reach the lit columns beyond. The gap lives in the layout mapping, so the preview shows the holes in place. Introduces a small CoordSink builder for layouts to emit two kinds of pixel (lit vs gap) without every layout knowing about gaps.

Light domain
- LayoutBase: forEachCoord now emits into a CoordSink (a builder with pixel() and blackPixel() named methods, the Skia/SkPath shape) instead of a raw callback + ctx; a layout with no dark regions only calls pixel() and stays unaware gaps exist. Added an optional hasBlackPixels() virtual (default false) that a gap-producing layout overrides.
- GridBlacksLayout (new): a Grid with dark columns [blackStart, blackStart+blackCount); each dark cell is a physical wire slot the driver still clocks (data flows through) that maps to no logical light, so it stays black. The lit columns keep their true positions (the picture is holed, not squeezed). blackCount 0 renders exactly like a Grid.
- GridLayout and every other layout: migrated to the CoordSink signature (mechanical cb(ctx,...) -> sink.pixel(...)); GridLayout is otherwise unchanged, no gap awareness.
- Layouts container: forwards both pixel kinds through its index-offset wrapper, and aggregates hasBlackPixels() across children.
- Layer: the folded-LUT build drops a gap slot (no logical cell maps to it, so the scatter leaves it black via blendMap's existing clear); the dense-identity fast path is gated off when any child has gaps (an identity map would light them). A gap-free grid still takes the identity path, byte-identical.
- PreviewDriver: migrated to the CoordSink signature; a gap is a real preview position drawn dark at its coordinate, so the holes show in the web preview.

UI
- (none)

Tests
- unit_GridBlacksLayout (new): dark columns emit gaps at their true position, the physical index advances across gaps, serpentine keeps the true dark column, no-run renders like a plain grid, out-of-range runs clamp.
- unit_Layer_sparse_mapping: added a GridBlacks gap test (folded LUT drops the gap slots, no destination is a gap index, no-run returns to the identity path) and an all-black-grid robustness case (empty LUT, no crash).
- scenario_GridBlacks_blackpixel (new): toggles a dark-column run live on the full Layouts->Layer->Drivers pipeline (256 physical lights held through the toggle, buffer non-zero, reversible with no reboot).
- scenario_runner + the migrated layout/preview unit tests updated for the CoordSink signature.

Docs / CI
- layouts.md: added the GridBlacks card; Grid card unchanged.
- main.cpp / scenario_runner: registered GridBlacksLayout.
- history/plans: the approved black-pixel layout plan (kept; describes the shipped design).

Addresses the pre-merge Reviewer findings on PR #52. Bounds the HTTP accept batch by wall-clock so several stalled clients can't stack past the task WDT, documents the audio sync->mode persisted-state break in MIGRATING.md, and clears a few doc/comment nits.

Core
- HttpServerModule: bound the per-tick accept batch by a 100 ms wall-clock budget, not just the 8-connection count. Each connection serves synchronously and a stalled peer can burn the ~2 s write deadline, so 8 stalled clients in one tick could stack past the 12 s task WDT; the batch now breaks on the budget and drains the rest next tick.
- Layer: the OOM degrade-to-identity comment now notes that a gapped layout's dark columns light up in that degraded state (safe, not crash) rather than claiming the fallback is "correct".

Light domain
- GridBlacksLayout: dropped the @card directive (no screenshot asset exists yet).

Tests
- unit_PreviewDriver: collapsed two duplicated skip-rationale paragraphs on the resumableFrames dynamicBytes test into one.

Docs / CI
- MIGRATING.md: added the AudioService entry — sync (off/send/receive) became mode + send audio, and simulate was renumbered; a persisted device re-sets those controls (per ADR-0013's document-don't-migrate).
- backlog-light: removed the shipped "Black pixels (dark gaps)" item (it lives in the code now as GridBlacks); marked the saved plan (shipped).

Reviews
- 👾 Accept-batch WDT bound (should-fix): fixed as above.
- 👾 Audio restructure MIGRATING entry (should-fix): fixed as above.
- 👾 GridBlacks @card / Layer OOM comment / PreviewDriver duplicated comment (nits): fixed.
- 👾 Card-resize JS+CSS bounds / base-header comment alignment (nits): accepted as-is — the JS clamp is a defensive belt over the CSS clamp, the column drift is cosmetic; not worth churn this cycle.
