Reposition the per-tab action buttons under the TabBar so the
operator's eye flows TabBar → context buttons → canvas. Graph
keeps Add-Step + Save + Run, Text trims to Save + Run, Run
hides them entirely (the Run tab has its own start button).
Drop the outer wrapping GestureDetector that competed with the
inner Positioned.fill detector inside the canvas Stack — two
TapGestureRecognizers in the same arena meant the inner one
sometimes lost edge-tap and background-tap.

Three flow-editor UX upgrades:
1. Wider deselect zone. A new translucent
Positioned.fill GestureDetector wraps the outermost
Stack (above the InteractiveViewer). Tapping the dark
area outside the canvas grid — which used to do
nothing — now closes the properties panel.
2. Edge selection. Click a wire → controller.selectEdge
stamps the edge key. Click again or click background →
deselects. Selection is mutually exclusive with step
selection, enforced inside the controller so the panel
never tries to render both. Selected edges highlight
with the same accent the hover state uses.
3. Properties panel grows an edge-info mode. When an
edge is selected, the panel shows:
- source qualified name (e.g. inputs.document or
summarize.response)
- target qualified name
- type colour swatch + name per endpoint (LabVIEW
palette)
- type-compatibility pill (green / red)
- Disconnect button that removes the edge in one click
l10n: 8 new edgeInfo* strings in EN + DE.
Editor tests still pass (20).

Two visible UX fixes:
1. Properties-panel toggle. Tap a step → opens. Tap the
same step again → closes (deselect via toggle). Tap the
canvas background → also closes. selectStep now returns
to null when called with the already-selected id; the
editor-controller test updated for the new semantics.
2. LabVIEW-style type colours on every port + wire.
_typeAccent now picks vibrant brightness-aware hues per
datatype:
text → magenta/pink (LabVIEW string)
json → amber/orange (cluster feel)
bytes → cyan/teal (raw binary)
file → green (file reference)
number → yellow/amber
Step-input dots, step-output dots, and outputs-endpoint
dots all switch from the generic theme.primary to the
field's declared type accent. Operators read the
payload from the dot alone.
Editor tests still pass (20).

Three changes:
1. Type-checked port connections. Drag from an output port
only highlights compatible-type input ports as drop
targets; incompatible drops are silently refused. Source
of truth: ModuleSpec for declared types. When either side
is unknown (no manifest, implicit YAML field) the check
degrades to 'compatible with anything' so a missing
manifest never blocks composition.
2. NodeGeometry.heightFor now adds a 2 px allowance for the
1 px AnimatedContainer border on top + bottom of the
card. Without this the last port-row's Column would
overflow by 2 px under tight layout constraints (caught
by the new widget tests; production canvas clipped it
silently inside InteractiveViewer).
3. Width parameter on FlowNode now actually drives the
outer SizedBox. The dynamic _stepWidth value from the
canvas finally reaches the card border rather than being
shadowed by NodeGeometry.width. Long labels
(model_endpoint, source_language) no longer ellipsis-clip.
Tests: 8 new widget + geometry tests covering width growth,
two-column body layout, port-tooltip attachment,
row-alignment between input and output sides, and the
existing kindForStep classifier. All 20 editor tests pass.

Three issues from Stefan's screenshot:
1. Connected port dots rendered as a ring with a small
surface-coloured pin in the centre — read as a hollow
bullseye target rather than 'this port is wired'.
Stefan asked for a plain filled circle: removed the
inner pin so connected = solid disc, disconnected =
ring with surface fill. One unambiguous visual switch.
2. Port dots bumped from 12 px to 14 px diameter. At 50 %
zoom (and under the wider cards we now draw) the 12 px
outline was sinking into the canvas background.
3. Tooltips now appear on every visible port label, not
only on those whose ModuleSpec carries a description.
Fallback chain:
- manifest description in active locale
- manifest description in English (peer)
- 'fieldname · type' when the field is declared but
the description is missing
- bare 'fieldname' for implicit (YAML-only) fields
Operators always see something on hover, useful when
the hub binary is older than the per-field ModuleInfo
RPC and the editor is running in implicit-only mode.

Two issues Stefan spotted in the screenshot:
1. Output port labels rendered on the right side of each
step card, but the canvas-side port DOTS were missing —
only the inputs side carried interactive dots. The
_portOverlays generator looped once per step and stamped
a single anchor; with per-field outputs we now loop
per declared (or YAML-implied) output field and yield
one dot per field, each with its own drag-start
handler that stamps fromField into the ConnectionDraft.
New edges out of those dots persist the precise output
name (e.g. $summarize.response) instead of the
placeholder $summarize.result.
2. Long labels (model_endpoint, source_language) were
ellipsis-clipped because every card rendered at the
220 px fixed minimum. NodeGeometry now exposes
widthFor(maxInputChars, maxOutputChars) that grows the
card to fit the longest label on each side, plus
gutters and slack. _stepWidth(step) on the canvas
computes it per step from the merged label lists;
_outputPortPosition, fit-to-content, and _stepPositioned
all route through it so dots, edges, and bounding boxes
stay aligned when cards stretch.
Connected-ports set keys per-field on the source side too
(${stepId}:${fieldName}) so the dot fills the way the
input-side dots do once any edge actually leaves it.
Legacy ${stepId}:__out__ stays seeded for the
no-declared-outputs fallback.

Stefan reported: per-field output ports never appeared even
after the hub-side capability-lookup fix. Root cause: the
editor only used ModuleSpec when the host returned one. If
the operator's hub still ran the pre-fix binary, or hadn't
re-installed v3 manifests, or the step's capability was a
built-in (system.approval) that ships no manifest at all,
the editor would silently collapse to a single output anchor
even though the flow YAML clearly references named fields.
Robust fix: per-field labels are now a UNION of declared
fields (from the manifest, if any) and implicit ones
(inferred from the flow graph itself — every $step.field
reference an outgoing edge carries adds a field name).
Declared fields keep manifest order; implicit ones follow
alphabetically. Two helpers (_inputLabelsForStep,
_outputLabelsForStep) single-source the merge so the
renderer, port-overlay generator, edge router, and
hit-tester all see the same list.
What this means at run time:
- v3 modules with description.en/de → full per-field ports
with tooltips, exactly as designed.
- v2 modules without descriptions → per-field ports, no
tooltips. Was the case already.
- v1 modules / hubs without inputs/outputs in
ModuleInfoResponse → per-field ports inferred from the
YAML references. New behaviour, no regression.
- Built-in capabilities (system.approval) → per-field ports
from with_-keys and outgoing edges. Works without any
hub manifest.

Four polish features in one push.
1. Reduce-motion clamp. FaiEditorStyle.clampedForA11y(
disableAnimations: ...) returns a style with glass, gradient,
flow animation, and node shadows forced off when the OS
reduce-motion preference is set. FlowCanvas + FlowEditorPage
call it on every build with
MediaQuery.disableAnimationsOf(context) so operators on
accessibility settings get a flat, static editor without an
explicit Studio setting.
2. Edge gradient source→target. EdgePainter now accepts an
optional colorEnd per segment and paints a linear shader
along the bezier when both ends carry distinct type accents.
In practice this draws attention to type mismatches: a
text→json wire reads as a colour transition; a same-type
wire stays a solid colour. ModuleSpec lookup at both edge
endpoints feeds the colour pair.
3. Breathing pulse on running steps. FlowNode accepts a
Listenable pulse; when status=running AND the canvas's
_flowAnim is ticking, the node wraps in an AnimatedBuilder
that drives a sine-wave shadow halo (alpha + blur + spread
oscillating). Stops when the run completes. Gated by
_style.flowAnimation so reduce-motion / minimal-style modes
stay still.
4. In-editor style sheet. Bottom-right canvas chrome gains a
⚙ Style button that opens a modal bottom sheet with four
SwitchListTiles (glass, gradient backdrop, flow animation,
node shadows) plus 'Reset to default'. Edits live in
_styleOverride on the canvas state — operator can tweak the
look for the session without restarting or editing code.
No persistence in this version; follow-up could pipe the
override through SharedPreferences via the host.

Phase A of the per-field-output-ports roadmap.
FlowRunDriver gains optional moduleInfo(capability) hook
that returns a ModuleSpec carrying declared inputs +
outputs (each ModuleField has name, type, locale->
description map). Default returns null so legacy hosts
that didn't implement the hook keep compiling — the editor
falls back to YAML-reference-derived ports.
FlowCanvas caches ModuleSpec per step capability, kicked
off lazily on each build. When the spec lands, the canvas
rebuilds with:
- Per-field input ports on the LEFT (declared input names,
in stable manifest order) — replaces the with_-keys-as-
port-labels shape.
- Per-field output ports on the RIGHT — one anchor per
declared output field. A flow like summarize that
declares response/model_endpoint/model_name/model_digest
now exposes four distinct anchors instead of fanning
every downstream reference out of one collapsed point.
- Tooltips on each port label, picked from the field's
description.<locale> with English fallback.
NodeGeometry refactored: heightFor(inputs, outputs) takes
max(inputs, outputs); outputPortY(index) for the new
multi-port output side; outputAnchorY() preserves the
legacy single-anchor fallback so edges still draw before
the spec resolves.
Edges + hit-tester now use _outputPortPosition(stepId,
fieldName: edge.fromField). Field index lookup falls
through to outputAnchorY when the spec isn't loaded yet.
Patterns: ported modern, classic, blueprint, minimal from
jai_client's CanvasPatternPainter. Dropdown now has seven
choices (dots, grid, modern, classic, blueprint, minimal,
blank).

Visual-effect knobs (FaiEditorStyle) the host can override —
distinct from ColorScheme, which stays orthogonal. Today
Studio passes it through FlowEditorPage's new style:
parameter; tomorrow a theme plugin can ship both colours and
effects in one move.
Two presets ship today: modern (frosted glass, gradient
backdrop, animated flow, shadowed nodes — the default) and
minimal (everything off, flat surfaces — accessibility /
reduce-motion / low-spec).
Properties panel rebuilt as a floating sidebar with
BackdropFilter blur when glass-style is on; falls back to
the pre-0.7 flush-divider layout under solid style.

A 2026-feel pass on the visual language. Three structural
moves that change how the editor reads at a glance.
1. Wires now carry the colour of the data they transport.
Every edge leaving the inputs endpoint takes the
declared input's type accent — blue for text, orange
for bytes, purple for json, green for file, amber for
number. The operator can trace "this is the document
path, this is the prompt" by following colour, no
labels needed. Edges leaving step outputs stay neutral
(we don't have module manifests to look up the output
type yet — once the hub exposes them, this lookup
grows).
Hover / selection still wins the colour treatment so
the "I'm pointing at this one" signal isn't lost in
the type palette.
2. Edges entering a currently-running step animate.
New AnimationController on the canvas loops a 0..1
phase at 1.5 s when ANY step is running, stopped
otherwise (no idle cost). EdgePainter takes the phase
and renders animated edges as marching dashes in the
wire's accent colour over a 35%-alpha base — the
operator literally sees data moving along the wire in
the direction of flow while a step executes. When the
step completes, the animation stops, the wire returns
to a static stroke. Run a flow with a slow step and
the canvas comes alive.
3. Canvas gets depth.
- Background is now a subtle top-left → bottom-right
gradient between surfaceContainer and surface,
giving the working area a "lit centre, recessed
corners" cue instead of one flat dark page.
- Node cards swap their Material widget for an
AnimatedContainer with two-layer shadows: a sharp
short-blur shadow gives the card a real footprint,
a soft long-blur shadow casts depth onto the canvas
behind. Selected nodes get a third accent-coloured
halo so selection state reads from across the canvas.
- 180 ms ease-out-cubic transitions on the
AnimatedContainer mean hover-into-select and
run-status-changes morph smoothly instead of
snapping.
Edge stroke widths bumped slightly (2.1 / 2.8 from 2.0 /
2.6) so the typed wires read at a confident weight against
the new gradient backdrop.
Version 0.6.0 -> 0.7.0 — visible visual language change.

Closes four operator complaints from the 0.5.3 review.
1. Edges now react to hover.
Added an interaction layer between the edge painter and
the endpoint nodes. A MouseRegion tracks the cursor in
canvas coords; every move runs a spatial hit-test
against each edge's bezier sampled at 24 points. The
closest edge within 8 px highlights in the primary
accent so the operator sees what they're aiming at.
Cursor leaves canvas → highlight clears.
2. Right-click / long-press on edges opens a Disconnect
menu.
Same interaction layer carries `onSecondaryTapDown` and
`onLongPressStart` handlers. Both run the same hit-test
and pop the menu at the cursor. Disconnect clears the
target's expression (step.with[field] = '' or
outputs[name] = ''), edge disappears, target port flips
outlined.
3. Long-press is now available alongside right-click
EVERYWHERE the context menu lives — step nodes, port
dots, edges. Trackpad-only users whose "two-finger
click" isn't bound to secondary get the same affordances
as mouse users.
4. Background pattern is now operator-selectable: cycles
through dots → grid → blank via a small icon button on
the bottom-right canvas controls. The button's icon and
tooltip reflect the next state. Picked dots as the
default because they're least visually noisy at scale.
5. Zoom indicator: a mono "100%" readout next to Fit-to-
screen shows the current InteractiveViewer scale,
updating live as the operator pinches / scrolls. Tap
to snap back to 100 % without losing pan position.
The bottom-right control cluster is now:
[pattern] [reset layout] [fit to screen] [zoom%]

Two operator-visible fixes from the 0.5.2 review:
(1) Draft line stopped short of the cursor. EdgePainter
shortens every segment endpoint by portRadius to dock at
port-dot perimeters — but the DRAFT segment's `to` is the
cursor itself, not a port. Result: while dragging a
connection, the live line ended 6 px short of where the
operator's mouse actually was. Felt like the cable
wouldn't reach.
EdgeSegment gains `shortenFrom` / `shortenTo` flags
(default true). The draft segment passes `shortenTo:
false`, so the line tip tracks the cursor exactly. From-
side stays shortened because the FROM is still a real
port dot.
(2) Ports had no hover affordance — mouse-over was
invisible. Operators couldn't tell ahead of time that a
port was interactive.
Adds `_hoveredPort` state on the canvas, updated via the
existing MouseRegion's onEnter / onExit. Port dot now has
three focus levels:
resting → 12 px, 1.8 px border, no glow
hover → 15 px, 2.2 px border, soft accent glow
drop-target (drag is over it) → 18 px, 2.5 px border,
stronger glow
The hover state pre-shadows the drop-target state —
operators see "yes, this port is grabbable / droppable"
before they commit to dragging. When the drag does start,
the drop-target halo is the same family of treatment,
just stronger, so the visual progression reads as one
continuous interaction.

Stefan's "the connections to the round ports look
unelegant" feedback was about three concrete things:
(1) The bezier endpoint sat at the port dot's GEOMETRIC
CENTRE. The dot was rendered ON TOP, so the line visually
disappeared into the centre of the dot — looked like a
thread being eaten by a bead.
(2) A separate arrow-head triangle was drawn on top of the
dot, doubling the visual terminator and making the
endpoint look "noisy".
(3) The dots were hollow rings the same colour as the
line, so the boundary between line and dot blurred
visually. They didn't read as connectors.
Fix:
- EdgeSegment now carries `fromSide` + `toSide`
(left / right) so the painter knows which way to
shorten each endpoint. The bezier ends `portRadius` px
short of the centre — exactly on the dot's outer
perimeter, on the side facing the line. The line now
"docks" cleanly at the rim.
- The end-cap triangle arrow is gone. The dot itself is
the visual terminator; an arrow on top was redundant.
- Port dot redesigned as a connector-socket: outer ring
defines the footprint, inner 4-px surface-coloured pin
appears when connected. The result reads as "an active
socket with a plug seated in it" rather than "a hollow
circle next to a card edge". Empty ports stay surface-
filled rings — unambiguous empty-slot signal.
- Bezier handle length floor raised from 40 to 60 px so
vertical detours (e.g. inputs-endpoint → step far below)
curve gracefully out of the start before dropping
instead of kinking near the origin.
- Stroke width nudged from 1.8 to 2.0 px for the normal
accent so the line carries the right visual weight
against the new docked-at-perimeter port treatment.
Visual: lines now look like cables seated into sockets,
not strings vanishing under beads.

Two operator-visible improvements:
- Five payload types now get five distinct hues that
survive both light and dark themes:
text → blue (0xFF42A5F5)
bytes → deep orange (0xFFFF7043)
json → purple (0xFFAB47BC)
file → green (0xFF66BB6A)
number → amber (0xFFFFCA28)
Previously bytes + file shared a colour and the palette
collapsed under custom theme plugins. Hardcoded hues
keep them readable everywhere.
- Step headers now carry a small "wired/total" badge.
When all with-fields carry a `$src.field` reference,
the badge collapses to a green check icon — the visual
"this module is fully wired" signal Stefan asked for.
Partial-wiring shows e.g. "3/5" in a pill matching the
step accent. Endpoint nodes don't render the badge
(ratio doesn't apply there).
Computed live from graph.edges + step.with_ values, so the
indicator updates the moment an operator drags a
connection in or out.
Version 0.5.0 -> 0.5.1.
Signed-off-by: flemming-it <sf@flemming.it>
Rewrites the port-rendering model around the operator's
expectation that each port is a single visible dot with
clear state. Closes four concrete complaints from the
0.4.0 review.
Removes the redundant inline dot:
- FlowNode._body no longer paints any inline 8-px dot.
The canvas-side dot is the SINGLE visible port. Size
matches the label row (12-px diameter, NodeGeometry.
portDotSize). No more "two dots per port" doubling.
Sides + alignment:
- New NodePortSide enum on FlowNode. `left` for step
inputs + outputs endpoint inputs; `right` for the
inputs endpoint (its body labels represent OUTPUTS of
the node — data flows OUT to downstream steps, so the
port dots belong on the right edge).
- Body labels right-align on right-side nodes,
left-align elsewhere. The 18-px port-gutter inside the
body keeps the dot from overlapping label text on the
port-bearing edge.
- Inputs endpoint dots now hang off the RIGHT edge of
the node, matching where the visible label gravitates.
Previously the dot was on the right but the labels
crowded the left — visually disconnected.
State-aware rendering:
- Port dots render FILLED when participating in an
edge, OUTLINED when dangling. `_connectedPorts` walks
graph.edges once per build and marks every endpoint.
Operator sees at a glance which inputs are wired vs
which need attention.
- Type-coloured: inputs endpoint dots take the type
accent (text → primary, bytes/file → tertiary,
json → secondary, number → amber, unknown → muted).
Edge deletion via port context menu:
- Right-click on a wired input port (step or outputs
endpoint) opens a Disconnect popup. Confirming clears
the with-field / output expression to empty, edge
disappears, port flips outlined. No need to chase the
YAML buffer manually.
- Unwired ports get no context menu (nothing to
disconnect) — keeps the menu honest.
The drop-target halo on drag stays — closest input port
within snap distance still inflates to 18 px and gets a
brighter halo, so the connection-drawing UX is unchanged.
Version 0.4.0 -> 0.5.0 — refactored API + visible port
model change warrants the minor bump.
Signed-off-by: flemming-it <sf@flemming.it>
Four operator-visible improvements in one cut.
Port geometry (the "connection dots don't line up with the
labels" bug):
- Header now has a fixed two-line structure (title + 16-px
subtitle slot) regardless of node kind, so the body's
port-row Y-offsets are identical across step nodes and
endpoint nodes.
- NodeGeometry constants rewritten so the inline 8-px dot
inside each port row and the 16-px canvas-side dot both
compute to the same Y. Port rows now anchor where the
eye expects them.
Port type colours:
- Inputs endpoint labels carry `name: type` (e.g.
`doc: bytes`), so the FlowNode body parses the type and
tints the inline dot per type: text → primary,
bytes/file → tertiary, json → secondary, number → amber,
unknown → muted. Step input ports stay muted until a
future commit can read module manifests for type info.
Endpoint editor:
- Inputs and outputs nodes are now selectable. Selecting
opens a dedicated editor in the properties panel:
add / rename / retype / remove entries graphically
instead of forcing the operator into the text tab.
Inputs editor offers a Type dropdown
(text / bytes / json / file / number);
outputs editor exposes name + expression
(e.g. `$step.field`).
Unsaved badge:
- The toolbar's tiny 8-px dirty dot was easy to miss.
Replace it with a coloured "unsaved" / "ungespeichert"
chip + colour the file name itself in the primary accent
when dirty. Operators see at a glance that a flow has
unsaved changes, which matters because the Discard
confirmation prompt won't fire if they don't realise
they made changes.
Version 0.3.0 -> 0.4.0 — first new editor feature surface
since 0.3.
Signed-off-by: flemming-it <sf@flemming.it>
Two operator-visible features filling concrete gaps the
jai_client editor exposed:
- Right-click on any step node opens a popup menu at the
cursor position with three actions:
* Duplicate — clones the step with a unique id
(<base>_2, <base>_3, …) and offsets its position so
the copy is visible next to the original.
* Disconnect all inputs — keeps every with-field key
but clears its expression value, so the step still
declares the same inputs but no longer wires them to
any upstream step.
* Delete — removes the step. Any dangling $refs in
downstream steps become run-time errors; we don't
silently rewrite their YAML because the surprise
would be worse than the explicit error.
- Floating "Reset layout" button on the canvas (next to
Fit to screen). Wipes the layout sidecar so AutoLayout
re-runs from scratch and the topological column
placement is restored. Auto-fits afterwards. Useful
when manual drags have drifted into spaghetti and the
operator wants a clean slate without losing the flow.
Implementation:
- FlowNode gains an `onContextMenu(Offset globalPos)`
parameter, wired to GestureDetector.onSecondaryTapDown.
- FlowEditorController.resetLayout() — clears layout,
re-seeds via AutoLayout, saves sidecar, notifies.
- The menu uses Flutter's showMenu() at the global
cursor position for native-feeling positioning.

First piece of the v0.2.0 rewrite. The graph view, text view,
and run view will all share a single source of truth: the
YAML text. This commit introduces the parsing layer + the
sidecar that keeps layout metadata OUT of the YAML.
FlowGraph (lib/src/model/flow_graph.dart):
- Parses + emits the F-Delta-I flow YAML shape (inputs +
steps + outputs + leading comment block).
- Recognises both inputs shorthand (`name: text`) and the
expanded form (`name: { type: text, default: ..., hint: ... }`).
- Detects edges by scanning step.with + outputs for
$source.field references; understands both the short
$x.y form (canonical) and the long ${{ x.y }} form (legacy).
- Flags system.approval@ steps via FlowStep.isApproval so
the graph can paint them with the human-gate styling.
- Immutable update helpers (withStepUpdated, withStepAdded,
withStepRemoved) used by the property panel + add-step
button.
- tryParse returns null on YAML syntax errors so the text
tab can keep the last valid graph while the operator
types.
LayoutStore + FlowLayout (lib/src/model/layout_store.dart):
- Per-flow JSON sidecar at
~/.fai/data/flows/.layout/<name>.json. Atomic write via
tmp + rename so a crash mid-save leaves the previous
copy intact.
- The YAML stays byte-identical to what `fai run` consumes
— positions never bleed into the flow file.
AutoLayout (lib/src/model/auto_layout.dart):
- Deterministic topological column layout for flows that
have never been opened in the graph view before.
- Steps with no $step refs sit in column 0; steps whose
refs all point at column-0 steps sit in column 1; etc.
- Cycles + dangling refs collapse to column 0 so nothing
is ever invisible.
Tests (test/flow_graph_test.dart): 7 cases cover canonical
parsing, edge detection across both ref forms, approval-step
flagging, leading-comment round-trip, structural round-trip,
parser robustness on broken YAML, immutability invariant.
All pass.

Two changes Stefan flagged on 0.1.3:
(1) Short files were still vertically centered. The previous
fix (CrossAxisAlignment.stretch on the Row) only stretched
the SingleChildScrollView viewport — the CodeField inside
still had its natural content-sized height and sat centered
in the larger viewport. Drop the SCV wrapper entirely and
set `expands: true` (with `minLines: null` + `maxLines:
null`, the underlying TextField's required combination) on
the CodeField. The widget now fills its parent's bounded
height, the line-number gutter runs the full editor height,
and line 1 sits at the literal top edge. Standard IDE
behaviour.
(2) The round outlined Refresh button sandwiched between
New (filled-tonal) and Save (filled-tonal) in the editor
toolbar was a visual-style outlier — Stefan called it
"dazwischen, sieht falsch aus". Refresh is also
semantically scoped to the file list, not the open
editor, so move it out of the editor toolbar entirely and
into a small FLOWS header bar at the top of the file-list
panel. The editor toolbar now reads:
[Back] file.yaml ● [Spacer] [New] [Save] [Run]
— four filled-tonal/filled buttons, no style outliers.
The file-list panel reads:
┌───────────────────────┐
│ FLOWS ⟲ │
├───────────────────────┤
│ flow-a │
│ flow-b │
└───────────────────────┘
Adds `listHeader` to FlowEditorStrings (de + en both

viewport — uncomfortable in any IDE-style surface where
content is expected to start at the top edge regardless of
how much of the viewport it fills.
Set CrossAxisAlignment.stretch on the outer Row so the
SingleChildScrollView fills the full vertical extent. The
SCV's default scroll origin is the top, so once the
viewport is taller than the content the file renders at
the top with empty space below.
Version 0.1.2 -> 0.1.3.

Stefan reported that opening a flow (hello) sometimes showed
content from a different flow (extract-with-approval). Cause:
flutter_code_editor's CodeController distinguishes between
`text` (the visible buffer, post-fold) and `fullText` (the
underlying source). Setting `_code.text = newFile` only
updates the visible buffer; the underlying `_code` data
structure retains the previous file's source, so subsequent
folding/scrolling can surface its content.
Switch all three load sites + the save site to the canonical
setter:
Before _code.text = text (visible buffer only)
After _code.fullText = text (replaces underlying source)
Save also moves to writing `_code.fullText` so any text the
operator collapsed behind a fold survives the round-trip.
Verified against flutter_code_editor 0.3.5 source — the
fullText setter calls `_updateCodeIfChanged` then re-emits
`TextEditingValue(text: _code.visibleText)`, which is the
documented "fully reset the editor" path.
Bump version 0.1.1 → 0.1.2. Studio's pubspec already pins
`ref: main` so the next `flutter pub upgrade` picks it up.

Stefan reported false-positive "Discard unsaved changes?"
dialogs when clicking around in the file list. Cause: the
naive `_code.text == _loadedText` check fired stale even
right after _code.text = text, because CodeController
silently rewrites the visible text during the assignment
(trailing-newline normalisation, fold marker insertion on
some YAML constructs, …) so _code.text deviated from the
just-stored _loadedText immediately.
Fix:
* Drop `_loadedText` field, replace with `_baseline`.
* Set `_code.text = ...` first (outside setState), then
capture `_baseline = _code.fullText` inside setState.
fullText is the canonical post-processed value, not the
visible-after-folding text — comparing fullText against
fullText eliminates the spurious diff.
* _dirty getter now compares `_code.fullText != _baseline`.
Applied to all four load / save / new-flow sites.
Bump version 0.1.0 → 0.1.1. Studio's pubspec already pins
`ref: main` so the next `flutter pub get` picks the fix up.

Extracted from fai/studio's lib/pages/flow_editor.dart so the
editor can be swapped out independently of the host.
Public surface kept minimal — a single FlowEditorPage widget
with three named parameters (initialFlowName, locale, onRun).
The package brings its own design tokens, empty/error
widgets, l10n table; no host-internal types leak through.
Studio depends on this repo via pubspec.yaml git reference.
Forks point Studio at a different URL and rebuild.
See README.md for the swap recipe.
