gramps ec6a5ca466 docs(queue): six veggies, then the new work; scheduling and publishing retired

Creator ruling 2026-11-09: finish the queue before the new features, gold pass always last.

**Retired (platform's surface, not ours):**
- 34 scheduled streams — YouTube owns scheduling *and* the reminder that makes it worth anything.
- 50 publish recording — Studio owns upload (resumable, quota-aware, explains rejections), and an
  in-app uploader would widen the OAuth consent to whole-channel video management for one convenience.
  The app adds "Show in folder" instead.

**New tasks:** 65 replay clips (the creator-side buffer YouTube does not give you), 66 timed ticker
messages, 67 per-event alert videos, 68 edit-while-live + first-run On-Air.

**TASK 65 spec** is the interesting one: 15 s is a clip (10/15/20, default 15); the ring holds encrypted
*encoded* fragments in RAM — raw 1080p frames would be ~7.4 GB for 15 s — so there is no steady disk
write and no crash debris; F10 saves; the replay layer plays once then hides in Live and loops the last
1–3 elsewhere; silent by default; three kept; the layer is excluded from its own clip (hall of mirrors).

**TASK 14 gains Branch 3:** mic input gain ahead of the gate (table boom mics fall under it), webcam
blank hotkey, opacity/geometry parity with a collapsed Geometry disclosure, Show-in-folder.

**Decisions recorded:** the replay-buffer reversal (it was retired in 2022-era reasoning as "different
product"; the case for it won), the platform-surface rule, and voice triggering deferred — always-
listening in a streaming app hears the game, so the content is its own false-positive source.

Queue refactored to 56 lines by archiving completed rows and the superseded surge plan; HANDOFF at 40.

TASK 14 — Creator feedback batch: quick fixes (TRAX, meter, backdrop, sliders)

Catalog: TASKS.md — status and requirements live here.

Goal: address creator's immediate UX feedback from testing session.

Status: 🔶 In progress — Branch 2 shipped

✅ TRAX volume — LocalGain = GameAudioVolume * 0.2 so TRAX is 20% of the desktop audio slider (was 100%, now quieter)
✅ TRAX tooltip — replaced ToolTip binding with ToolTipService.ToolTip + Placement="Top" to fix z-order inside Viewbox overlay
✅ Mic meter boost — MeterLevel multiplied by 1.2× before clamping so the bar reads ~20% higher at same input level
✅ Click-to-position sliders — clicking anywhere on the mic/game volume slider track now jumps the thumb to that position before starting the drag
✅ Backdrop visibility — the dedicated <Image> now binds Visibility to BackdropVisible (ViewModel property); compositor checks IsVisible before blit
✅ Rename "Backdrop" → "Game Capture" in EnsureBackdrop() + test assertions
✅ Elements panel — new "ELEMENTS" section beneath Sources list; per-element config with live preview, ✕ revert, ✓ applied indicator
✅ Webcam border config — color hex input + color swatch picker, border thickness 0–10 slider
✅ Countdown source — SourceType.Countdown, pick list (Starting/BRB scenes only), timer minutes 1–60 default 15
✅ Web source — SourceType.WebSource, pick list (all scenes), URI text input
✅ Elements scrollbar deselect fix — clicking the Elements panel scrollbar no longer deselects the selected element (scrollbar lives inside the ScrollViewer, not the StackPanel; guard now checks ElementsScrollViewer instead of ElementsPanel)
✅ Web source URI + buttons inline — merged URI TextBox and check/revert buttons into a single DockPanel row (✓ rightmost, ✕ left); buttons no longer wrap to a separate line
✅ Web source URI hidden for webcam — URI section was showing for webcam due to WPF binding path SelectedElement.Type not resolving on WebcamSceneConfig; replaced with IsWebSource virtual property on SceneElement (mirrors existing IsWebcam pattern), overridden in Source to return Type == SourceType.WebSource, bound via BoolToVis
✅ Check/revert consistent order + accept — all three element sections (webcam border, countdown timer, web URI) now use consistent [✕][✓] button order; green check buttons enabled with click handlers that save current values as snapshot baseline (so revert undoes to last accepted state, not initial selection)

Branch 3 — queued 2026-11-09 (creator testing notes)

#	Slice	Why
15	☐ Mic input gain — a dB stage ahead of the gate, meter reads post-gain	A headset mic sits close enough to clear the gate; a table-mounted boom is quieter and the gate eats it. Not AGC — automatic gain pumps on breath and silence. Clipping is already the limiter's job
16	☐ Webcam blank / standby — a visibility hotkey for the webcam layer (tenth registration), optional standby media while hidden	"My webcam has to go away now." The privacy blur covers the screen case; this covers the camera in one keystroke
17	☐ Opacity + geometry consistency — every layer type exposes the same opacity control and the same position/size affordances	Parity across layer types. Geometry fields stay, but collapse behind a "Geometry" disclosure: keyboard-only and screen-reader users cannot drag a layer, and precise alignment between two monitors is otherwise guesswork
18	☐ Show in folder — on the stop notification, reveal the finished recording	Publishing is retired to YouTube (TASK 50); the app's remaining job is "where did my file go?"

One Good Dog test per slice. If any of them turns out to be a redesign rather than a fix, it gets its own task number instead of hiding in this batch.
