Build 729 (creator):
- "press <esc> to return" loses the word "press"; the label is "Record / Go-Live".
- The bar takes focus on "Build scenes" and Tab cycles between the two halves only
(KeyboardNavigation.TabNavigation="Cycle"), never off into the window.
- Entering Record / Go-Live starts with NOTHING chosen — the output switches are a fresh decision,
not a remembered one.
- Three states: nothing chosen [YouTube][Local MP4]; YouTube chosen [YouTube(red)][Live Stream][Private
Stream]; Local MP4 chosen [Local MP4(red)][Start Recording] → [End Recording] while recording. Only the
chosen output is red; the action chips never highlight. Choosing Local MP4 takes the left slot and the
YouTube chip disappears with it, which is what "slides to the left, replacing it" describes.
"Private Stream" is the private-visibility stream — the same thing this app has always called the test
stream (creator's clarification, so the wording is deliberate, not a new broadcast type).
Output chips are one style with a Tag-driven trigger (OutputChip + OutputChipIcon), so a chip's red face
and its glyph colour can't drift apart; the one-alpha hit-area colour is a token, because
DesignTokensTests rightly refuses literals in theme files.
680 pass, 0 warnings. Scope justification: Assets/starting-background.jpg is outside this unit — the
creator's replacement art, still awaiting their visual check.
Unit C (creator ruling 2026-11-12).
- Local MP4: one button, "Start Recording".
- YouTube: "Private Test Stream" beside "Review & Go Live", the latter with the primary face because it
is the default ask.
- Running: "End Live Stream" (or "End Test" for a test run, "Stop Recording" for a local one).
The behavioural change underneath: SessionStartDecision.For no longer takes `editing`. Since 2026-10-30
EDIT silently chose test-vs-real, which meant the same button did two different things depending on a
toggle three inches away. With Test as its own button that inference has no job, so For() now reads only
the armed output and ON-AIR always means the real livestream. That supersedes the 2026-10-30 ruling;
SessionStartDecisionTests is rewritten to pin the new matrix rather than the old one.
A signed-out press still starts the sign-in flow instead of sitting dead (no-dead-ends), unchanged from
before — now stated in one place, the two new commands, instead of inside a route table.

Unit B (creator ruling 2026-11-12). Pressing Record / Go Live now changes the bar: the REC/ON-AIR pill
pair becomes two labelled switches with glyphs (the YouTube mark, the record dot), under an "Output"
label and beside "One output at a time". Build world shows nothing but its own segment.
Two things this exposed that were not cosmetic:
- **Local MP4 was not actually the default.** Both pills started unarmed, so the stage opened with no
output selected; the old screen got away with it because the primary button inferred "record" from
"nothing armed". RecordPillOn now starts true, which is what "pos = ON (default)" means in code.
- **The stage gates the whole idle cluster, not just the switch.** Gating only the switch left the start
button visible in the Build world — a Start with no output chosen. ShowOutputStage (output world, idle,
not recording) wraps the cluster, so a running session hides the stage too: its output cannot change.
Exclusivity stays in the view model (arming one drops the other); the XAML merely reflects it.
TopBarWorldTests pins the stage's visibility and the radio pair starting at Local MP4.
680 pass, 0 warnings. Next: unit C (output-dependent primary action, End labels).

Unit A of the top-bar redesign (creator ruling 2026-11-12). The standalone EDIT toggle is gone;
Build Scenes IS edit mode, so "which world am I in?" and "can I edit?" cannot disagree any more.
BarWorld (ViewModels/MainViewModel.TopBar.cs) has two values, Build and Output. Build ships
highlighted at launch and sets EditingActive on; choosing Record / Go Live turns it off. Clicking the
already-highlighted half is deliberately not a no-op: it re-enters that world, which is the only way
back to the layers during a session now that the EDIT button is gone (unit 1 made that legal).
WorldSegmentButton (Themes/Controls.xaml) is a Button, not a ToggleButton, and each half passes its
own flag through Tag to one shared DataTrigger — a ToggleButton would fight the view model and, with a
one-way IsChecked, clear its own binding on first click.
UiShellTests updated where it guarded the old EDIT markup (it now guards the segment). TopBarWorldTests
pins launch state, both transitions, and the re-enter case.
679 pass, 0 warnings. Next: unit B (output switch), unit C (output-dependent action + End labels).
