Route with A* over numeric cell keys, so a route can reach past the Sun's crowd
The route search widened evenly from the departure, Dijkstra-style, with a budget of 20 000 stars. On the Gaia catalogue those are all within about 40 pc of the Sun, so it found no route to anything farther at any range: Sol to Mirfak (155 pc) failed at 3, 8, 15 and 30 pc alike. Every failure then asked minimumRangeBetween what range would work. That search widened the same way with a 30 pc ceiling, and it ran for up to a minute on the main thread before giving up with nothing. routeBetween is now an A* search. Each star is queued by the distance travelled to it plus the straight line on to the destination, on a binary heap rather than a linear scan of the frontier. It heads for the destination instead of flooding the core around the departure. minimumRangeBetween bisects the range, one routeBetween per step, because whether a chain exists can only become truer as the range grows. Its answer is always the longest hop of a route actually found, so a range it names always opens one. Its ceiling is now the Routes panel's own maximum, MAX_JUMP_RANGE_PC: a range the control cannot be set to is no answer, and raiseTo already clamped any figure above it. The spatial index keys its cells by one number packed from their three indices instead of an "ix,iy,iz" string. A search visits up to 125 cells for every star it expands, and building those strings was half of what a route cost. forEachWithin hands neighbours over unsorted and uncollected, which was most of the other half; within is now that, gathered and sorted. The no-route line said nothing in the catalogue bridged the gap; it now says no chain of jumps up to the panel's maximum reaches the star, which is what was searched.

Name the neighbours that have a name, before the ones that only have a number
The neighbour ring exists to say where you are. Since the catalogue refresh it has been spending one of its four places in Sol on "Gaia DR3 5853498713190525696" -- a nineteen-digit survey id for the star printed beside it as Proxima Centauri, the same star twice -- and that duplicate row pushed Barnard's Star off the ring altogether. 91.9% of the refreshed catalogue is named that way. Named stars now come first, and survey designations fill in only where fewer than four named ones are in reach. The line between the two is the one the catalogue format already draws: a name is a designation when it is what the star's source would generate for it. Judged by the prefix rather than by rebuilding "prefix id" from the row, because the number after "Gaia DR3" is the survey's own id, which the 32-bit row id cannot hold -- a round trip through the id would have called every one of those stars named. The preference lives on the index as `nearestPreferring`: the preferred pass exhausts the search before the fill runs, so a named star is never outranked by a nearer unnamed one. That is the whole point of asking. The end-to-end spec names Barnard's Star again, on purpose. The four nearest named stars to the Sun are a fact about space, not about which catalogue was refreshed last, and without this change that is exactly the label that vanished -- checked by running the spec with the preference stashed: it fails on that line, and passes with it back. npm test 609/609, npx playwright test 16/16 under CI=true --workers=2.

Name the neighbours, from inside the system
A system view could say everything about the star it was inside and nothing about where that star was. The four nearest catalogue stars are now named around the edge of it, each with its distance, each a button that flies there — so a chain of neighbours can be walked without pulling back out to the field between hops. These are bearings, not sky positions, and that is the one deliberate compromise here. A true direction was tried first and does not work: at this field of view the visible cone is about 30 degrees, so on average one neighbour in fifteen falls inside the frame — measured, not guessed, at one label of four in Sol and none at all after a small orbit. What survives the ring is the half of the direction a viewer can act on, which way to turn to face it, and the ring reads as instrument rather than as scene because it sits at a fixed radius. Real distance was never an option: Proxima is 268 000 AU from Sol, thirteen far planes out, so the distance goes on the type line. Proximity is answered by a new pure module rather than by a scan. A uniform grid over the catalogue answers both "the k nearest to this star" and "every star within n parsecs", the second being what the jump-link graph in the next PR is built from — one scan per node, and the quadratic would show. Its spec pins the grid against a brute-force sweep of a pseudo-random cloud, because a spatial index is an optimisation and never a different answer. Where the ring meets the HUD, the HUD wins: placement is given the boxes the readout, the strip and the object card occupy, and slides a name along the ring until it clears them, or drops it rather than print it half hidden. That rule is a pure function with its own spec. Four defects found while verifying this, three of them older than it: The dock's flex column was pointer-events-auto and as wide as its strip, so an invisible band above the strip swallowed every click in it — including, but not only, a neighbour's. The column is transparent now and each surface opts back in. The ring was sized against the frame's height alone, which on a phone held upright put it a viewport and a half wide: no neighbour was reachable on any portrait screen. It is sized against the shorter side. Picking a search result reopened the readout, which on a narrow viewport is a sheet over most of the scene — reopening it onto whatever was just flown to. Below sm it now folds away. A selectable label's two lines are adjacent spans, so it announced as "Sirius2.64 pc"; it carries an explicit label saying what it does. Verified: build clean, 558/558 unit, 7/7 end-to-end including a new spec that flies Sol to Barnard's Star by its label, design detector clean, screenshots at 1440x900 and 390x844 in Sol and Proxima Centauri, and the keyboard path walked: both names are in the tab order, focusable, with the accent ring.
