- README 'Watch It Happen' section with four staged screenshots (fictional
demo productions, generated placeholder art — no private project content)
+ governance section notes enforced approval gates
- scripts/backlot_screenshot_stage.py: stages 4 demo projects in 4 pipeline
states against OPENMONTAGE_PROJECTS_DIR and captures the shots with
Playwright — reproducible README imagery
- lib/paths.py: OPENMONTAGE_PROJECTS_DIR env override (checkpoints, events,
and the board all follow one root); backlot/state.py now imports it
(was still defining its own copy — the exact drift the review warned of)
- undeclared-stage checkpoints (e.g. a legacy 'idea' run under a cinematic
manifest) now slot into their canonical rail position instead of dangling
after publish, drawn dashed + italic with an 'unlisted' note
