Everything from 2026-09-25 is committed and the suite is green, so nothing
here is half-applied. What is left is one loose edit outside this repo (the
sound-browser fix, which I could not commit), three restarts and a Pulsar
window reload to collect work already built, two things that need hands in
Ardour, three design questions with no code behind them yet, and the OSC arm
lens.

The 200 ms audition chop is recorded as UNRESOLVED with the one test that
settles it, not as fixed. All three sample-bank surfaces were ruled out: the
Foundry was not serving, La Cale has no index to load, and the sound browser
has no loop or timer on its click path. `paplay` on the same file decides
whether it is the audio path or Pulsar, and that is worth more than another
guess.
