fb0dd4592f feat(repl): Add REPL effect with HUD-style interactive interface 
Implement a Read-Eval-Print Loop (REPL) effect that provides a
HUD-style overlay for interactive pipeline control.

## New Files

- engine/effects/plugins/repl.py - REPL effect plugin with command processor
- engine/display/backends/terminal.py - Added raw mode and input handling
- examples/repl_simple.py - Simple demonstration script
- tests/test_repl_effect.py - 18 comprehensive tests

## Features

### REPL Interface
- HUD-style overlay showing FPS, command history, output buffer size
- Command history navigation (Up/Down arrows)
- Command execution (Enter)
- Character input and backspace support
- Output buffer with scrolling

### Commands
- help - Show available commands
- status - Show pipeline status and metrics
- effects - List all effects in pipeline
- effect <name> <on|off> - Toggle effect
- param <effect> <param> <value> - Set parameter
- pipeline - Show current pipeline order
- clear - Clear output buffer
- quit - Show exit message

### Terminal Input Support
- Added set_raw_mode() to TerminalDisplay for capturing keystrokes
- Added get_input_keys() to read keyboard input
- Proper terminal state restoration on cleanup

## Usage

Add 'repl' to effects in your configuration:

## Testing

All 18 REPL tests pass, covering:
- Effect registration
- Command processing
- Navigation (history, editing)
- Configuration
- Rendering

## Integration

The REPL effect integrates with the existing pipeline system:
- Uses EffectPlugin interface
- Supports partial updates
- Reads metrics from EffectContext
- Can be controlled via keyboard when terminal display is in raw mode

Next steps:
- Integrate REPL input handling into pipeline_runner.py
- Add keyboard event processing loop
- Create full demo with interactive features

247f572218 fix: Bug fixes and improvements 
- fix(demo-lfo-effects): Fix math.sin() usage (was angle.__sin__())
- feat(pipeline): Add set_effect_intensity() method for runtime effect control
  - Allows changing effect intensity during pipeline execution
  - Returns False if effect not found or intensity out of range
  - Used by LFO modulation demo

The demo-lfo-effects.py script now works correctly with proper
math.sin() usage and the new set_effect_intensity() method provides
a clean API for runtime effect intensity control.

1a7da400e3 feat(graph): Integrate graph system with pipeline runner 
Add support for loading pipelines from TOML graph configs in the
pipeline runner, maintaining full backward compatibility with presets.

- Add graph_config parameter to run_pipeline_mode() function
- Support both preset mode and graph mode with conditional logic
- Graph mode: loads from TOML file, uses graph-defined stages
- Preset mode: maintains existing behavior with manual stage building
- Handle items/context appropriately for each mode (graph uses own data sources)
- CLI display flag works in both modes

Backward compatible: graph_config defaults to None, so existing calls
to run_pipeline_mode(preset_name) continue to work unchanged.

406a58d292 feat(graph): Add TOML-based graph configuration loader 
Allow pipelines to be defined in TOML format with intuitive
node-and-connection syntax that's easy to read and edit.

- Add graph_toml.py with TOML parsing using tomllib
- Support simple format: "source": "headlines"
- Support full format: {"type": "camera", "mode": "scroll"}
- Parse connection strings in "A -> B -> C" chain format
- Add example pipeline_graph.toml demonstrating usage

Example TOML:
[nodes.source]
type = "source"
source = "headlines"

[nodes.camera]
type = "camera"
mode = "scroll"

[connections]
list = ["source -> camera -> display"]

f27f3475c8 feat(graph): Add adapter to convert graphs to pipelines 
Bridge the new graph abstraction with existing Stage-based pipeline
system for backward compatibility.

- Add GraphAdapter class to map nodes to Stage implementations
- Handle effect intensity configuration (sets global effect state)
- Map camera modes to Camera factory methods (feed, scroll, horizontal, etc.)
- Auto-inject required dependencies (render, camera_update) via pipeline capabilities
- Support for all major node types: source, camera, effect, position, display

The adapter ensures that graphs seamlessly integrate with the existing
pipeline architecture while providing a cleaner abstraction layer.

c790027ede feat(graph): Add core graph abstraction for pipeline configuration 
Introduce Node, Connection, and Graph classes for defining pipelines
as graphs instead of verbose XYZStage naming convention.

- Add NodeType enum (SOURCE, CAMERA, EFFECT, DISPLAY, etc.)
- Add Node, Connection, and Graph dataclasses with type hints
- Add validation for cycles and disconnected nodes using DFS
- Add factory methods: node(), connect(), chain() for easy graph building
- Support for both imperative and declarative graph construction

This provides the foundation for the graph-based DSL that replaces
the verbose XYZStage naming convention with intuitive node-and-connection syntax.

901717b86b feat(presets): Add upstream-default preset and enhance demo preset 
- Add upstream-default preset matching upstream mainline behavior:
  - Terminal display (not pygame)
  - No message overlay
  - Classic effects: noise, fade, glitch, firehose
  - Mixed positioning mode

- Enhance demo preset to showcase sideline features:
  - Hotswappable effects via effect plugins
  - LFO sensor modulation (oscillator sensor)
  - Mixed positioning mode
  - Message overlay with ntfy integration
  - Includes hud effect for visual feedback

- Update all presets to use mixed positioning mode
- Update completion script for --positioning flag

Usage:
  python -m mainline --preset upstream-default --display terminal
  python -m mainline --preset demo --display pygame

33df254409 feat(positioning): Add configurable PositionStage for positioning modes 
- Added PositioningMode enum (ABSOLUTE, RELATIVE, MIXED)
- Created PositionStage class with configurable positioning modes
- Updated terminal display to support positioning parameter
- Updated PipelineParams to include positioning field
- Updated DisplayStage to pass positioning to terminal display
- Added documentation in docs/positioning-analysis.md

Positioning modes:
- ABSOLUTE: Each line has cursor positioning codes (\033[row;1H)
- RELATIVE: Lines use newlines (no cursor codes, better for scrolling)
- MIXED: Base content uses newlines, effects use absolute positioning (default)

Usage:
  # In pipeline or preset:
  positioning = "absolute"  # or "relative" or "mixed"

  # Via command line (future):
  --positioning absolute

5352054d09 fix(terminal): Fix vertical jumpiness by joining buffer lines with newlines 
The terminal display was using  which concatenated lines
without separators, causing text to render incorrectly and appear to jump
vertically.

Changed to  so lines are properly separated with
newlines, allowing the terminal to render each line on its own row.

The ANSI cursor positioning codes (\033[row;colH) added by effects like
HUD and firehose still work correctly because:
1. \033[H moves cursor to (1,1) and \033[J clears screen
2. Newlines move cursor down for subsequent lines
3. Cursor positioning codes override the newline positions
4. This allows effects to position content at specific rows while the
   base content flows naturally with newlines

860bab6550 fix(pipeline): Use config display value in auto-injection 
- Change line 477 in controller.py to use self.config.display or "terminal"
- Previously hardcoded "terminal" ignored config and CLI arguments
- Now auto-injection respects the validated display configuration

fix(app): Add warnings for auto-selected display

- Add warning in pipeline_runner.py when --display not specified
- Add warning in main.py when --pipeline-display not specified
- Both warnings suggest using null display for headless mode

feat(completion): Add bash/zsh/fish completion scripts

- completion/mainline-completion.bash - bash completion
- completion/mainline-completion.zsh - zsh completion
- completion/mainline-completion.fish - fish completion
- Provides completions for --display, --pipeline-source, --pipeline-effects,
  --pipeline-camera, --preset, --theme, --viewport, and other flags

- Mode (feed, scroll, horizontal, etc.)
- Speed, zoom, canvas dimensions
- Internal timing state

Display state preserved:
- Initialization status
- Dimensions
- Reuse flag for display reinitialization

UI Panel state preserved:
- Stage enabled/disabled status
- Parameter values
- Selected stage and focused parameter
- Scroll position

This enables manual/event-driven rebuilds when inlet-outlet connections change,
while preserving all relevant state across pipeline mutations.

a95b24a246 feat(effects): add entropy parameter to effect plugins 
- Add entropy field to EffectConfig (0.0 = calm, 1.0 = chaotic)
- Provide compute_entropy() method in EffectContext for dynamic scoring
- Update Fade, Firehose, Glitch, Noise plugin defaults with entropy values
- Enables finer control: intensity (strength) vs entropy (randomness)

This separates deterministic effect strength from probabilistic chaos, allowing more expressive control in UI panel and presets.

4c97cfe6aa fix: Implement ViewportFilterStage to prevent FontStage performance regression with large datasets 
## Summary

Fixed critical performance issue where demo/poetry presets would hang for 10+ seconds due to FontStage rendering all 1438+ headline items instead of just the visible ~5 items.

## Changes

### Core Fix: ViewportFilterStage
- New pipeline stage that filters items to only those fitting in the viewport
- Reduces 1438 items → ~5 items (288x reduction) before FontStage
- Prevents expensive PIL font rendering operations on items that won't be displayed
- Located: engine/pipeline/adapters.py:348-403

### Pipeline Integration
- Updated app.py to add ViewportFilterStage before FontStage for headlines/poetry sources
- Ensures correct data flow: source → viewport_filter → font → camera → effects → display
- ViewportFilterStage depends on 'source' capability, providing pass-through filtering

### Display Protocol Enhancement
- Added is_quit_requested() and clear_quit_request() method signatures to Display protocol
- Documented as optional methods for backends supporting keyboard input
- Already implemented by pygame backend, now formally part of protocol

### Debug Infrastructure
- Added MAINLINE_DEBUG_DATAFLOW environment variable logging throughout pipeline
- Logs stage input/output types and data sizes to stderr (when flag enabled)
- Verified working: 1438 → 5 item reduction shown in debug output

### Performance Testing
- Added pytest-benchmark (v5.2.3) as dev dependency for statistical benchmarking
- Created comprehensive performance regression tests (tests/test_performance_regression.py)
- Tests verify:
  - ViewportFilterStage filters 2000 items efficiently (<1ms)
  - FontStage processes filtered items quickly (<50ms)
  - 288x performance improvement ratio maintained
  - Pipeline doesn't hang with large datasets
- All 523 tests passing, including 7 new performance tests

## Performance Impact

**Before:** FontStage renders all 1438 items per frame → 10+ second hang
**After:** FontStage renders ~5 items per frame → sub-second execution

Real-world impact: Demo preset now responsive and usable with news sources.

## Testing

- Unit tests: 523 passed, 16 skipped
- Regression tests: Catch performance degradation with large datasets
- E2E verification: Debug logging confirms correct pipeline flow
- Benchmark suite: Statistical performance tracking enabled

7f6413c83b fix: Correct inlet/outlet types for all stages and add comprehensive tests 
Fixes and improvements:

1. Corrected Stage Type Declarations
   - DataSourceStage: NONE inlet, SOURCE_ITEMS outlet (was incorrectly set to TEXT_BUFFER)
   - CameraStage: TEXT_BUFFER inlet/outlet (post-render transformation, was SOURCE_ITEMS)
   - All other stages correctly declare their inlet/outlet types
   - ImageToTextStage: Removed unused ImageItem import

2. Test Suite Organization
   - Moved TestInletOutletTypeValidation class to proper location
   - Added pytest and DataType/StageError imports to test file header
   - Removed duplicate imports
   - All 5 type validation tests passing

3. Type Validation Coverage
   - Type mismatch detection raises StageError at build time
   - Compatible types pass validation
   - DataType.ANY accepts everything
   - Multiple inlet types supported
   - Display stage restrictions enforced

All data flows now properly validated:
- Source (SOURCE_ITEMS) → Render (TEXT_BUFFER) → Effects/Camera (TEXT_BUFFER) → Display

Tests: 507 tests passing

d54147cfb4 fix: DisplayStage dependency and render pipeline data flow 
Critical fix for display rendering:

1. DisplayStage Missing Dependency
   - DisplayStage had empty dependencies, causing it to execute before render
   - No data was reaching the display output
   - Fix: Add 'render.output' dependency so display comes after render stages
   - Now proper execution order: source → render → display

2. create_default_pipeline Missing Render Stage
   - Default pipeline only had source and display, no render stage between
   - Would fail validation with 'Missing render.output' capability
   - Fix: Add SourceItemsToBufferStage to convert items to text buffer
   - Now complete data flow: source → render → display

3. Updated Test Expectations
   - test_display_stage_dependencies now expects 'render.output' dependency

Result: Display backends (pygame, terminal, websocket) now receive proper
rendered text buffers and can display output correctly.

Tests: All 502 tests passing
