Draw each HYG star at Gaia's distance, and keep the ones Hipparcos misplaced
HYG and Gaia were both cut at 250 pc, each on its own distance. A star Hipparcos put at 200 pc and Gaia at 300 was kept by the first, never downloaded from the second, and drawn at 200. That is where 83% of the 9 691 mid-magnitude HYG stars without a Gaia counterpart came from, and at the median Hipparcos had them a third too close. The mirror case, Hipparcos outside and Gaia inside, dropped the HYG row and left its Gaia entry anonymous. Gaia's own Hipparcos cross-match (hipparcos2_best_neighbour, a fixed DR3 table of 99 525 rows) gives a usable Gaia distance for 97 751 of them. placementDistancePc keeps a star either survey puts inside the cutoff, and draws every kept star at the better measurement, inside the cutoff or not. 57 121 HYG stars now sit at Gaia's distance. 6 833 of them are past 250 pc: Zet Per 230 -> 259 pc, 35 Ori 137 -> 330, 44 Cnc 223 -> 613, and the farthest, HIP 69445, at 8.7 kpc. 3 666 stars that Hipparcos put outside are now kept, and 3 656 of them give a Gaia entry its name. The cross-match is required rather than skipped when unreachable. Without it, every one of those stars would move back to its Hipparcos distance, and the published map would flip with the archive's availability. The ESA TAP answered it with a 500 at first and in 102 s on the next try. So fetches now retry 5xx and network failures twice, after 30 s and 120 s, in the fetch every source goes through. The refresh job also carries the Gaia DR3 responses from run to run in the Actions cache: the release is frozen, and a live re-fetch has already reproduced stars.bin byte for byte. 423 651 stars (+10), 61 168 HYG rows folded into Gaia entries (+3 656), 351 597 unnamed designations (-3 656). 10 886 HYG survivors and 23 unmerged pairs under an arcsecond, both inside the merge gate's ceilings. The same 1 972 exoplanets have a host; KELT-4 A b and MWC 758 c now sit on their named star. The HUD's "Radius" becomes "Survey radius": 250 pc is where Gaia is surveyed to, and no longer the edge of the map.

Say so when Gaia is missing, rather than as 68 000 unmatched stars
With the merge gate in place, a Gaia DR3 outage no longer ships a HYG-only catalogue: the ETL skips the unreachable source, and validateMerge then fails on the survivor count. That is the right outcome and the wrong message: "68 000 HYG stars found no Gaia counterpart" sends the reader looking at the merge. Gaia contributing nothing is now checked first, by name. Two comments said Gaia was best-effort, in data-refresh.yml and on the merge in fetchStars. They now say what happens instead.

Fail the ETL on a merge that keeps the same star twice
The catalogues are regenerated by a scheduled job that pushes straight to main once the unit suite and a production build pass in the same run. Both passed, every Monday, on a catalogue that carried 23 000 stars twice: the suite tests code against fixtures, and no fixture is 400 000 real stars. Nothing between the ETL and the map ever looked at what came out. Two numbers now have to hold, and each is the signature of a way the merge has actually failed here. Different catalogues placing a star within an arcsecond of each other is never two stars at this depth, and one catalogue does not list a star twice, so every cross-source pair that close is a miss. Nineteen survive today — each a second HYG row wanting a Gaia entry that already absorbed one, which is how Gliese lists some doubles — against 1 112 in the catalogue on main, where a Hipparcos parallax off by half outvoted a direction that agreed to a hundredth of an arcsecond. The ceiling is 100. The epoch failure leaves no close pair at all, because sixteen years of proper motion had already carried the two entries tens of arcseconds apart. What it leaves instead is HYG rows that found no counterpart: 36 056 on main against the 10 876 Gaia genuinely lacks — the stars it saturates on and the red dwarfs past its magnitude cut. The ceiling is 15 000. The pair sweep sorts by declination and walks a one-arcsecond window, so it costs about 300 ms on 423 641 stars — cheap enough to run on every ETL, which is the point: the gate has to sit where the bot already is, before the push, because a GITHUB_TOKEN push fires no CI of its own.

Answer the review: a name two stars answer to names neither, and NaN is not a proper motion
Three guards the matcher was missing, none of which changes a byte of the regenerated data — the ETL re-run after them is identical — and all three now have a test that fails without them. A proper motion that is not a number poisoned every comparison rather than one: NaN loses every `<` it appears in, so `cosine < minCosine` was false for every star, each one reached the distance guard, and the last one in catalogue order won — a confident wrong answer, order-dependent, where the honest answer is "no match". The archive's own parser never produces one (parseOptionalNumber maps a blank cell to undefined), but the matcher is exported for offline re-cross-referencing and a caller reaching for bare Number() is exactly the coercion the CSV helper documents as having caused two prior bugs. An unusable motion now reads as no motion. Normalizing a name strips the dot, so `Gl 55.2` and `Gl 552` — two stars 135 degrees apart — share one key, and the index kept whichever came last; 64 such groups exist in the catalogue, among them `Gl 84.1A`/`Gl 841A` and `HD 96600` twice. A name that names two stars names neither, so ambiguous keys are dropped and the query goes to the sky, where direction settles it. No archive hostname lands on one today, which is why the data is unchanged. And the cache is keyed by the whole request rather than the query alone, here and in gaia.ts: fetchTextCached records only that some response arrived, so an endpoint edit would have kept serving the old host's bytes — the same silent staleness the query hash was added to close. The tests now discriminate what the comments claim. Eight mutants, each caught: judging only the published position, only the carried-back one, judging each star on its worse epoch rather than its better, letting a distance-rejected star claim best-so-far and shadow the true host behind it, an unguarded proper motion, a last-wins name index, a fixed angular tolerance instead of a transverse one, and no distance guard at all. The GJ 887 test grew a decoy standing halfway along the star's own track: it is nearer than Lacaille 9352 at the published position and nearer at the worse of the two epochs, so it wins unless both epochs are tried and the better one decides — the property the test's comment had been claiming untested.

Match exoplanet hosts on the sky, at both epochs the archive might mean
The host cross-reference matched in 3D, nearest star within half a parsec. That is the wrong space for the same reason the star merge learned it: a direction is measured, a distance is inferred. At 170 pc half a parsec is a ten-arcminute cone, wide enough to hand the planets of stars our catalogue does not carry to whatever bright star floats nearest — HATS-6 b sat on HD 39500, seventy arcseconds away. At 60 pc it is tighter than the routine disagreement between the archive's Hipparcos distances and our Gaia ones, which is how four bright giants (7 CMa, HD 81688, omi UMa, xi Aql) lost their planets and GJ 15 A's landed on a neighbouring entry. Hosts are now resolved like stars are merged: by name first, then the nearest star on the sky within a transverse budget — angle times the archive's distance, 0.01 pc — whose distance does not flatly contradict the archive's (the merge's own 50 % ratio). The budget is transverse because the dominant error is proper motion over an epoch difference, a physical displacement that is the same in parsecs at every distance: as an angle it is 60" for Proxima and 2" for a host at 100 pc. Measured on the 504 hosts whose archive name matches a catalogue name outright, true pairs reach 3.4e-3 pc; shifting every host a quarter of a degree finds nothing else within 0.01 but Proxima's own entry, whose budget at 1.3 pc is wider than the shift. The archive never says which epoch a position is for, and they are mixed: alf Tau and GJ 273 publish J2000, HD 133131 and TOI-2459 publish Gaia's J2016. So the query asks for sy_pmra/sy_pmdec too, tries each position at both ends of those sixteen years, and judges a star on whichever is closer. Guess one epoch and a fast star's planets land on a companion: J2016 puts Aldebaran's on Gl 171.1B, J2000 puts GJ 15 A's on a Gaia entry 15.9" out. 1 972 of 6 354 planets now sit on a host, 1 548 before: 432 gained, 26 on a better star (GJ 15 A to Groombridge 34, GJ 676 A off its companion, HD 19994 to 94 Cet), 8 lost — six false 3D matches to stars the catalogue never contained, and GJ 273 b/c, whose archive row says 5.92 pc for Luyten's Star at 3.79: a distance in flat contradiction is exactly what the ratio guard exists to refuse, and the number to fix is upstream. The 2 pc "rematch" apparatus is gone. build.ts recomputed every match after fetchExoplanets had already written the file — at a different tolerance, so the log reported a match count the data did not contain — and the offline entry point that persisted it had no caller. One matcher, one set of constants, used once. The archive cache is now keyed by a hash of the TAP query, so a response cached before the proper-motion columns cannot serve rows without them, where a missing cell would quietly read as "does not move"; the row's astrometry is stored with each planet, which is what made these tolerances measurable offline in the first place.

Answer the review: direction settles distance, brightness is one-sided, and a lost id stops the scene
Three findings from the adversarial review of the merge, all reproduced. The distance test was hiding 1 489 stars that sit under an arcsecond from their Gaia entry with a Hipparcos parallax off by half — thirty of them at a false few parsecs from the Sun (HIP 82724 at 3.7 pc, where Gaia has it at 62.8) — and the first audit did not see them because it counted residual doubles through the same 50 % filter. Under three arcseconds the distances are now not consulted: a coincidence of direction that close is never chance at this depth (the quarter-degree shift finds none), and the parallax is the thing to fix. Brightness keeps its say at any separation, and is now one-sided: a folded entry may be five magnitudes fainter (a red dwarf in V against G) but not one brighter, because an entry a magnitude brighter than what is already at that spot is a primary Gaia does not carry — Almach, Alfirk and Ashlesha had all been folded into their companions' entries, 93 in all. The sky grid wraps at 0h. The Gaia query orders by source_id after G, so the row order — and the ids assigned from it — is a function of the archive's content rather than of the server's plan for 20 064 ties; the cache key is a hash of the query. And a bookmark to a star id the catalogue no longer holds — 56 000 Gaia ids change with this — sent the scene through reconcileSelection, enterSystem, its decline, finishTransition and reconcileSelection again until the stack overflowed. The selection is cleared instead, at the one place every path goes through. Regenerated: 423 641 stars, 57 512 HYG identities on Gaia positions, no HYG id or name lost, no star within 20 pc left with an unclaimed Gaia entry under an arcsecond. 403 HYG survivors still have an unclaimed Gaia entry within 60": 13 under an arcsecond, where the brightness guard does not trust HYG's magnitude, and the rest components 3" to 60" from their counterpart.

Bring Gaia to HYG's epoch before merging, and keep a star's name when it matches
Gaia DR3 gives positions for J2016.0, HYG for 2000.0, and the merge matched them on the sky to one arcsecond without propagating any proper motion. Sixteen years of motion is 62" for Proxima and 166" for Barnard's Star, so every star faster than ~62 mas/yr — most of the nearest ones — was kept twice, some 23 000 in all. The slow ones were matched, and lost: the merge kept Gaia's row whole, so 102 proper names, 1 336 Bayer/Flamsteed names and 32 000 spectral types became "Gaia DR3 <id>" and "Unknown", and 92 named exoplanet hosts handed their planets to their anonymous twin. Gaia is now asked for its proper motions and carried back to J2000 before it leaves the fetcher. HYG is placed from its own x/y/z columns, which are right where its `ra` is not: that column was carried from the Hipparcos epoch without the cos δ its motion needs, 17.9" off for Proxima. A match combines the two entries — Gaia's position, HYG's name, type, magnitude, colour and id — instead of choosing one. The tolerance is 15" with a five-magnitude guard, both set by measurement: 55 457 pairs sit under 1" once the epochs agree, the Gliese-only entries up to 12" (Ross 248), shifting every entry a quarter of a degree finds 16 chance neighbours at 15", and the guard keeps Sirius out of Sirius B's entry. Entries of one source are never merged with each other: the 1 411 Gaia doubles resolved under 1" are two stars, not one. Regenerated: 425 071 stars (was 447 410), 56 082 of them Gaia positions carrying HYG identities; no HYG id or name lost; the sixteen stars nearest the Sun carry no survey designation; 196 residual doubles, all components 17" or more from their counterpart. Five planets of four bright giants (7 CMa, HD 81688, omi UMa, xi Aql) lose their host link: their Gaia distance sits 0.7–1.1 pc from the archive's Hipparcos-based one, past the 0.5 pc the host match allows. Matching hosts on the sky rather than in space, as the merge does, is the follow-up.

Make a cold-cache ETL run a pure function of the archives
Two order dependencies surfaced while designing the scheduled refresh, both invisible on a developer machine with a warm cache and both guaranteed to haunt a weekly CI run that starts cold. The Exoplanet Archive query had no ORDER BY, so the archive was free to return rows in any order it liked — and exoplanets.json preserves row order, so a re-run could rewrite the file, and commit a diff, when nothing was actually published. Ordered by pl_name, which is unique among default_flag=1 rows, so the order is total. The deep-sky sort tie-broke with localeCompare, whose collation belongs to the ICU build of whichever Node runs the ETL. Compared code points instead: the file must not reorder because the runner's ICU disagrees with the machine that wrote it last. Both may reorder the committed files once, on the next real refresh. After that, byte-identity between runs means what it should: the archives published nothing.

Draw the whole catalogue, and build the aggregation the rest would need
Two things, one verified and one that cannot be. The render budget is now the whole catalogue: 68388 stars, one instanced draw call, which is what a GPU should be asked to do. The budget itself stays, because the catalogue is meant to grow past what any machine should draw at once — Gaia alone could contribute a million — and at that point the selection is what keeps the field legible rather than a grey wash. A `?stars=` override handles the machines that cannot, including the software rasterizer the end-to-end suite runs against, whose frame rate is two orders of magnitude below a real GPU's and which was measuring the rasterizer rather than the app. The aggregation is the second thing, and none of it has run. Every ESA, NOIRLab, SDSS and Euclid endpoint is unreachable from here — only GitHub raw is, which is why HYG and OpenNGC are the current sources. So this is infrastructure and a Gaia query written against the published DR3 schema, not data. What the framework encodes is that these surveys are not interchangeable. The distinction is not size but whether a catalogue knows how far away its objects are, because a 3D map cannot place a star it only has a direction for. Gaia is the only one of the five that can add stars here, because it is the only one that measures parallaxes. DECaPS2 has fifty times Gaia's object count and photometry alone — not one of its 3.32 billion objects can be placed in depth. Euclid's bulge is 8 kpc away, where a parallax is microarcseconds; its contribution would be imagery. SDSS-V and SAGA are keyed to stars something else already places, so they enrich rather than extend. Those roles are recorded as data the ETL prints, not as prose that can drift. Overlapping catalogues are reconciled on direction rather than on 3D proximity, which is the one non-obvious part. Two surveys agree on a star's direction to within an arcsecond and disagree on its distance by tens of per cent, so a star at 200 pc is 50 pc from itself between catalogues while being unmistakably the same object. Matching in 3D would need a tolerance so loose it swallowed real neighbours. The better parallax wins where both reach; where only one does, the star stays. Names become dense-with-holes with a source dictionary, because a survey catalogue has no proper names — writing "Gaia DR3 4472832130942575872" once per star would cost 25 MB per million to repeat what two adjacent fields already say. An empty entry costs three bytes and is regenerated on load. The Sun needed its own case in the merge: it sits at the origin, has no direction to compare, and appears in every catalogue.

Widen the star catalogue, and separate what is drawn from what is known
The map held 8750 stars within 50 pc and rendered 371 systems. Both were lower than they needed to be, for different reasons. The star catalogue was capped by its own encoding as much as by the cutoff: one JSON object per star, eight key names repeated each time, 157 bytes a star. At the range HYG actually reaches that is 17 MB to download and parse before the first frame. So the numbers move into two binary column stores — positions in stars.bin, which the GPU is handed verbatim, and id/magnitude/colour/spectral index in stars-meta.bin — and the JSON keeps only the strings, with 2600 distinct spectral classifications collapsed to a dictionary. The layout is defined once, in star-catalog.ts, and the ETL and the app both use it, so the writer and the reader cannot drift. The cutoff then goes to 250 pc: 68388 stars, 7.8x as many for 1.7x the bytes. That is where HYG's measurements stop rather than a round number — 98.6% of its rows are Hipparcos, whose parallaxes are good to about a milliarcsecond, so beyond 250 pc it would be plotting noise. Drawing all of them is a separate question from knowing them, and it is answered separately. The field draws a budget: every star inside 25 pc, because the nearest are faint red dwarfs and Proxima Centauri is magnitude 11, then the brightest of everything beyond. Search, navigation and the planet cross-reference still see the whole catalogue. A real GPU would draw all 68388 without noticing; the budget is for the machines that would not, and it is one constant. Systems were limited by something else entirely. The archive data already shipped named 4735 host stars and only 388 resolved, because the rest lay outside a 50 pc catalogue — and the cross-reference kept only its own result, so redoing it meant re-downloading an archive that is not reachable from here. Host coordinates are now stored with each planet, and the match is re-resolved at build time against whatever catalogue the run produced. Even name matching alone, which needs no coordinates and so works on the records already shipped, rescues 335 planets across 238 systems: 371 renderable systems become 609. Two selection rules were tuned for a 50 pc bubble and no longer fit. Tethers followed the Sun's nearest neighbours, which are a speck at this range, and now follow the brightest; labels were ranked by proximity, which named whatever sat nearest the middle of the screen, and are now ranked by brightness — so the view names Canopus, Achernar and Spica rather than a clump of catalogue designations.

Propagate exoplanets with their real orbital period
Every exoplanet was propagated with gmForParent(undefined) — the Sun's gravitational parameter — so the whole catalogue orbited as though each host were exactly one solar mass. Most hosts are red dwarfs far lighter than that, and a heavier central mass pulls harder and shortens the period, so their planets were whirling round much too fast: TRAPPIST-1 is 0.09 solar masses, and its planets were completing an orbit in roughly a third of the true time. pl_orbper was already in the TAP query and was being discarded on the way into the record. It is now kept, along with st_mass. A period and a semi-major axis together pin the host's gravitational parameter exactly, via GM = n^2 a^3 — no stellar model, no assumption, just the inverse of the orbitalPeriodDays helper that was already there. resolveGravitationalParameter picks the best available source: the measured period, else the published host mass, else one solar mass as before. A derived value implying something outside 0.01-150 solar masses is rejected and falls through, since a period and axis taken from disagreeing solutions would otherwise send a planet spinning at a visibly absurd rate. Note the direction of the error, which is the opposite of what it looks like: assuming a *heavier* host than reality makes a planet orbit *faster*. A test pins it, and caught me stating it backwards first. The NASA Exoplanet Archive is unreachable from this environment (egress policy returns 403 on CONNECT), so exoplanets.json cannot be regenerated here and still carries no periods. Behaviour is therefore unchanged until `npm run etl` is run somewhere with archive access, at which point every planet with a published period starts moving correctly with no further code changes. build.ts reports how many records gained a period, and rejects non-positive ones. Tests: 171 passing, up from 151, including a new end-to-end check that TRAPPIST-1 b with its real period completes exactly one orbit in 1.51088 days and sits a full diameter away at half that.

Regenerate the star catalogue, fixing 2331 names and 875 colours
Two ETL bugs, both fixed at the source and then re-run against HYG. Star ids,
ordering and positions are all unchanged, so stars.bin is byte-identical and
every exoplanet cross-reference still resolves.
Names. HYG's `gl` column already carries its own catalogue prefix ("Gl 581",
"GJ 3512"), unlike the bare numbers in `hd` and `hip`, so prefixing it again
produced 2331 of 8750 stars named "Gl GJ 1076". That corrupted three surfaces at
once: search, the on-screen labels, and exoplanet host-star name matching, which
compares normalised names and could never match "glgj1076" to "gj1076".
Colours. `Number(row['ci']) || 0` cannot tell a blank cell from a real zero, and
0 is a real B-V colour index meaning a hot blue-white A-type star. All 875
affected stars turned out to be blanks — the catalogue contains no genuine zero
inside the distance cutoff — so several hundred red dwarfs were rendering
blue-white. colorIndex is now `number | null` rather than defaulted, because any
numeric default is indistinguishable from a measurement.
Consumers resolve the gap from the spectral type instead. That needs real
parsing: HYG's `spect` column runs to 134 distinct spellings among the affected
stars alone, including a bare lowercase "m" for 354 of them, plus "k-m" ranges,
"dM4" luminosity prefixes and "K:" uncertainty flags. 622 of the 875 recover a
class this way — 497 of them M-class — and the remaining 253, which carry no
classification at all, fall back to neutral white.
The parse is anchored at the start of the string rather than scanning it. A scan
is the obvious implementation and is quietly wrong: the ETL writes the literal
"Unknown" for unclassified stars, that contains a K, and every one of those 253
would have been classified as an orange K-type. A test covers it.
Also lifts parseOptionalNumber out of fetchExoplanets into lib/csv, where both
fetchers now use it, and gives magnitude a faint default instead of 0 — no
current star is affected, but 0 would mean "as bright as Vega" and render an
unphotometered star as one of the largest points on the map.
Tests: 145 passing, up from 116, including the first coverage of
StarFieldRenderer. Build, both typechecks and the Playwright suite are green.

Fix four defects a user hits in the first minute
Found by surveying the codebase against the plan; each was verified against the
committed assets or the running app before being touched.
TRAPPIST-1 was orbiting the Sun. The Exoplanet Archive leaves sy_dist blank for
some systems, and fetchExoplanets.ts read it with bare Number() — Number('') is
0, which is finite, so it slipped past the Number.isFinite guard in
resolveHostStarId, placed the host at the origin, and matched Sol at distance
exactly 0. 127 records shipped with hostStarId 0, all seven TRAPPIST-1 planets
among them, and the system view filters on that id, so drilling into Sol drew
127 alien worlds inside the real solar system.
Fixed in three places: resolveHostStarId now rejects a non-positive distance
(the robust guard, covering every caller), fetchExoplanets.ts uses the
parseOptionalNumber that already sat unused in that same file for ra/dec/dist,
and validateExoplanets asserts nothing ever resolves to the Sun again — the Sun
has no exoplanets, so that tripwire costs nothing and is permanent.
The archive's endpoint is blocked by this environment's egress policy, so the
ETL cannot be re-run here. The committed asset was corrected in place instead,
which is safe because the outcome is deterministic: the name path runs first and
none of the 127 resolve by name, so all of them reached id 0 positionally and
the fixed pipeline yields null for exactly that set. Cross-referenced hosts drop
from 761 to 634; record count is unchanged.
Dragging to rotate selected stars. Selection was bound to the raw click event,
which browsers fire on release however far the pointer travelled and which
OrbitControls does not suppress — so any drag ending over a star launched a
camera flight, and in system view routed away to /body/:id. Now tracks
pointerdown and ignores a release more than 5 px from it.
Ghost systems accumulated on every star-to-star hop. SystemOrbitsRenderer.dispose
released geometries and materials but never detached its group, so old orbit
lines stayed parented forever — still traversed and re-uploaded each frame with
disposed geometries, drawn over the new system and unpickable. dispose() now
detaches and clears.
Galaxy star labels stayed pinned inside the system view. They are CSS2D objects
parented to the scene rather than to galaxyGroup, so hiding the group left up to
15 parsec-space names clumped over the system's star. Cleared on entry. Also
gated the per-frame Kepler propagation on actually being in a system; it ran in
galaxy view too, because the renderer is never nulled on exit.
Tests: 116 passing, up from 112. Build, both typechecks and the Playwright suite
are green.

Add the deep-sky backdrop, the last unbuilt piece of the plan
The design doc scopes deep-sky objects as a galaxy-view backdrop and lists fetchDeepSky.ts, deepsky.json and deepsky.model.ts, but none of it existed — it was the only part of the plan with no implementation behind it. ETL: fetchDeepSky.ts pulls the OpenNGC catalog, classifies each object as a galaxy/nebula/cluster, and keeps the ~460 worth drawing (everything Messier, everything with a common name, and anything brighter than magnitude 9) out of ~12,000 mostly-anonymous rows. build.ts runs it and validates the output. Distances are the hard part: OpenNGC has no distance column, and both fallbacks fail for the best-known objects. M31, M33 and M42 are Local Group members whose redshift is negative or absent, and a galaxy's catalog parallax comes from a cross-matched foreground star — 6 mas for M31 would put a 780 kpc galaxy at 167 pc. So records store a unit direction on the celestial sphere rather than a position (the line of sight is always known precisely, and the objects are drawn on a fixed backdrop shell where true distance is unusable anyway), and distance is optional metadata carrying its own provenance. Parallax is trusted only for galactic objects, redshift only above z=0.003 where expansion outweighs peculiar velocity. 330 of 463 get a distance; the rest honestly report none. Rendering: DeepSkyRenderer paints the objects as soft additive billboards on a 2500 pc shell — clear of the 50 pc star field, beyond the camera's 2000 pc orbit limit, and inside its 5000 pc far plane. Size comes from real angular extent, so Andromeda is six times wider than the full Moon, clamped at both ends. Sprites rather than points because the WebGPU backend caps point primitives at one pixel; materials are shared per kind and brightness band, so 460 objects cost nine of them. The brightest dozen get permanent labels, which needed the label overlay to accept string ids alongside numeric star ids. The backdrop is decorative, so a failure to load its dataset is logged and the star field comes up regardless. Also documents the app in the README, which until now covered only the plugin marketplace. Tests: 112 passing, up from 54. Build, both typechecks and the Playwright suite are green.
