feat: node graph overlay; move to opencadcodec/opencadkernel/opencadgraph

The codec and kernel repositories and crates are renamed opencadcodec and
opencadkernel. Inside OCS they are depended on under short keys, so code
reads `codec::`, `kernel::` and the new `graph::` (opencadgraph, the node
graph engine). File-format and protocol spellings stay as they were: the
ACIS product id `acadrust`, the ACADRUST_* switches and the plugin
version keys `acadrust_version` / `acadrust_source`.

A button left of MCP on the command line opens a translucent node graph
over the viewport, with a palette of object, input, math, logic, list,
text and geometry nodes added by click or drag. An object node owns
drawing entities and its rows are the Properties panel's own rows for
them: the single-object page is extracted from refresh_properties as
entity_property_sections, values use the control protocol's
property_json, and writes go through set_property_value with a property
target override, so the panel, MCP and the graph share one read/write
path. A list reaching an object row makes one entity per element. Each
graph action is one undo step; the canvas pans and zooms.

The earlier Phase 8 was **integration and compatibility**, not a new entity kind. `Insert` was added afterward as a separate coverage increment. Before marking any kind complete, establish an executable integration harness that exercises the actual plugin runner and IPC, not only direct Rust conversion helpers:
1. Stage the in-tree v7 plugin with `bash plugins/opencad-python/tools/stage-bundled.sh <stage directory> [--debug]`. Verify the staged `plugin.toml` says API v7 and its acadrust source and Rust compiler match OCS. Keep the repository-relative `ocs_plugin_api` path; never check in a machine-local path.

2. Through real IPC, create, inspect, edit, and delete a representative entity. Verify an invalid multi-entity transaction changes nothing, a valid transaction produces one undo entry, and undo **and redo** restore the expected geometry and references.
3. In the running GUI, exercise a real point pick, entity pick, cancellation/Escape, and plugin command cancellation. Verify drawing/selection/command notifications, including overflow recovery.
4. Repeat an input request and event poll across two tabs; verify token and notification isolation and cleanup when a tab closes.
5. Save and reopen representative edits as **DWG and DXF**, verifying the actual geometry and preserved unmapped fields. Use a real viewport/canvas check where the entity has visible geometry; a converter round trip alone does not satisfy this.
6. Record platform, OCS/acadrust revisions, fixture files, commands, results, and any engine limitation. Keep repeatable tests in the relevant repositories.

- `staged_python_shape_lifecycle_over_real_ipc` passes C/R/E/D/U/I/W/V/P through the actual runner, checks the real SHX linework before and after DWG/DXF reopen, and proves that invalid size/style edits remain atomic. The DXF renderer fallback now searches named `is_shape_file` styles as well as legacy unnamed styles. Shape is **Complete**; the queue now continues with `AttributeDefinition`.
- Added creation-time `owner_handle` to the generated document-model adapter. It is present in snapshots and accepted by `doc.create_entity`, but rejected after creation; host transactions independently reject owner changes. Generic host validation now requires a non-null canvas owner to resolve to a block record, except `AttributeEntity`, whose owner may be an `Insert`.
- Mapped stable AttributeDefinition fields and validated tag, placement, normal, height, width, angles, text style, line count and block ownership. `embedded_mtext` stays snapshot-readable but unmapped so partial Python edits preserve its linked R2018+ layout payload.
- `staged_python_attribute_definition_lifecycle_over_real_ipc` passes the real create/read/edit/delete/undo/selection/render/validation/packaged-build path using a structurally valid block and linked Insert. Full DWG state and core DXF geometry survive reopen; deletion stays absent after both formats. OCS also stopped double-converting ATTDEF/ATTRIB DXF rotation already converted by acadrust.

Revalidate this recorded failure against the currently merged `7ea4247` revision before keeping or clearing the W-gate blocker.
- Closed `AttributeEntity` without flattening canonical drawing storage. V4 views and IPC snapshots expose each nested child by handle, while host create/update/delete and transactions rewrite the owning Insert so rendering, serialization and undo remain consistent.
- `staged_python_attribute_entity_lifecycle_over_real_ipc` passes C/R/E/D/U/I/W/V/P with the actual v7 adapter. It creates a linked attribute from its block's ATTDEF, reads and edits value/placement/rotation, selects the parent Insert, renders text, rejects invalid tag/height/owner edits atomically, reopens edited and deleted state in DWG and DXF, and proves three-step undo/redo. AttributeEntity is **Complete**; the queue now continues with `Hatch`.
- Completed `Hatch` with full solid/pattern definitions and typed nested boundary paths. The adapter generator now handles single-payload tagged enums as `{kind, value}` dictionaries, which covers every Hatch edge variant and is reusable by later nested entity models. Unknown adapter properties are rejected instead of being silently ignored.
- `staged_python_hatch_lifecycle_over_real_ipc` passes C/R/E/D/U/I/W/V/P with closed line-loop fixtures: solid creation, conversion to a stored-line pattern, boundary replacement, selection and live render-cache checks, atomic invalid scale/association/open-loop/unmapped-payload rejection, edited/deleted DWG and DXF reopen, post-reopen edits, and three-step undo/redo. Hatch is **Complete**; the queue now continues with `Leader`.
- Mapped `Leader` (host validation and reference binding in `entity_coverage.rs`, policy/build.rs/manifest entries, adapter count 23). `staged_python_leader_lifecycle_over_real_ipc` passes C/R/E/D/U/I/V/P through the real runner. W is blocked by acadrust: the DXF writer omits the annotation handle (340), DXF reads lose `annotation_offset` (213), and DWG R2010+ does not store text size or hookline flag. Each gap is pinned by a canary assertion so it fails loudly once fixed. The queue now continues with `MLine`.
- Completed `MLine`. Host validation and style binding live in `ocs_plugin_api`; derived vertex geometry and element parameters are recomputed by the host (`normalize_scripted_mline`) on scripted create/edit, so scripts supply positions only. The adapter maps `flags` as an integer through a manifest override because the generator cannot classify acadrust's serde-newtype `MLineFlags`. `staged_python_mline_lifecycle_over_real_ipc` passes C/R/E/D/U/I/W/V/P with DWG and DXF reopen.

The queue now continues with `Dimension`.
- Completed `Dimension` for all nine subtypes. Because the payload is an enum, the adapter generator gained a `manual_kinds` hook (hand-written `<kind>_to_dict/_from_dict/_apply`) and the host catalog a `synthetic` policy section. The host derives `actual_measurement` and the base definition point on every scripted create/edit. Python ints are now accepted wherever a coordinate or angle is expected. `staged_python_dimension_lifecycle_over_real_ipc` records each subtype separately and all nine pass C/R/E/D/U/I/W/V/P. The queue now continues with `MultiLeader`.
- Completed `MultiLeader`. The adapter generator now converts `Color`, `LineWeight`, mixed unit/payload enums, fixed float arrays and bitflags-2 newtypes, and a `keep_types` override lets a hand-written setter reuse generated converters (used for the merge-style `context` patch). `Leader.override_color` became writable through the same `Color` form; neither file format stores it. `staged_python_multileader_lifecycle_over_real_ipc` passes the full gate with DWG and DXF reopen. The queue now continues with `Table`.

Next work is the engine fixes behind the canary assertions, the mapped-kind audit of the 17 pre-existing kinds, and merging `origin/main`.
- Audited the 17 pre-existing mapped kinds through the shared real-runner driver (`audit_python_*`). The audit found and fixed genuine validation gaps: Ellipse had none, Text and MText accepted a zero height, Arc accepted non-finite angles, Point and Line accepted infinite thickness, and most basic kinds had no creation-time validation. A shared `validate_basic_entity` now covers Point, Line, Circle, Arc, Ellipse, Text, MText, LwPolyline, Polyline, Polyline2D, Polyline3D and Spline, refusing only problems an edit introduces so already-invalid legacy values stay editable. Twelve of the 17 kinds now pass every gate (Point, Line, Circle, Arc, Ellipse, LwPolyline, Text, MText, Ray, XLine, Solid, Face3D). Four expose persistence findings pinned by canaries (Polyline reopens as Polyline3D; Polyline2D reopens as LwPolyline in DXF; Polyline3D loses elevation in DWG; Spline loses weights in DXF), and Insert is update-only with all applicable gates passing. The driver gained per-format DWG expectations and a host-made block fixture for Insert.
- Audited `AttributeDefinition` against acadrust `5b682ed` with a full-field comparison through both formats. Everything passes in DWG. DXF keeps only tag, prompt, value, insertion point, height and rotation because the reader handles eight group codes; alignment, width factor, oblique angle, attribute flags, field length, generation flags, lock and text style reopen as defaults. The kind stays integration-tested and the gap is pinned by canary expectations; the fix belongs in cadcodec's `read_attdef`. The shared driver's block fixture now also serves `MAKEBLOCK` scripts.

- Decided the two open audit questions. **Insert is creatable** by naming an existing block (existence, ordinary-block and no-cycle checks; attribute records stay with the AttributeEntity flow), which completes the kind. **Legacy Polyline is update-only** with a hint pointing scripts at Polyline2D and Polyline3D, because both formats convert it on save. The generator gained an `update_only_message` for such kinds, integer coordinates are accepted in Insert scales, and the driver gained `MAKEPOLYLINE` and `MAKEBLOCK` fixtures.
- Wrote up the cadcodec DXF reader gaps as draft issues in [cadcodec-reader-gaps.md](cadcodec-reader-gaps.md) (nothing filed): ATTDEF, boolean groups read through `as_i16()`, UNDERLAY rotation units, LEADER, DRAWINGVIEW/SECTIONLINE dispatch and TABLE merged ranges. Verifying them corrected an earlier attribution: the Spline "DXF drops weights" finding was an OCS bug (the writer emits weights only for a rational spline), now fixed by setting `flags.rational` from the weights, so Spline is complete.

- Mapped `Ole2Frame` as update-only (queue item 21, previously blocked). OCS already builds real embedded frames (`build_embedded_ole`), which supplied the fixture the blocker was waiting for. Frame corners and the aspect lock are scriptable; the opaque storage and envelope are excluded and refused on edit. The audit proves the embedded picture survives DWG and DXF unchanged. Creation from Python remains a follow-up. The remaining blocked kinds are SectionSymbol, Region, Body, Solid3D and Surface.
- Investigated the cadkernel path for the ACIS kinds ([cadkernel-body-path.md](cadkernel-body-path.md)). The earlier "blocked" reasoning was overstated: OCS already builds primitives, transforms bodies and runs booleans through cadkernel, and `solid_to_sat` plus `kernel_acis_body` verify each result lifts back with no loss. Two `#[ignore]` spike tests measured exact volumes and DWG and DXF round trips for a box, moved, rotated and mirrored copies, three booleans, four other primitives and a `Body` entity. The real gap is an operation channel from a script to that pipeline; the note recommends an additive `solid_operation` host method and a phased plan (Solid3D create and transform, then booleans and Body, then Region, then Surface). Booleans took about 23 s each in a debug build and need release timing first. Region, Body, Solid3D and Surface move from blocked to unblocked-by-design; SectionSymbol stays blocked.
- Built the cadkernel operation channel and completed `Solid3D` (create and rigid move). `HostApi::solid_operation` is additive (default "unsupported"), so older hosts and plugins are unaffected; it travels as `PluginRequest::SolidOperation` and `PluginResponse::SolidResult`, and the host records its own undo step only after validation so a refused operation leaves nothing behind. The Python surface is `doc.solids.*`. Every result is verified lossless by the kernel path before it is accepted and a payload that will not lift is refused untouched. `Body` moves through the same channel and `Region` is accepted but untested. Booleans, Region creation from curves and Surface remain, in that order; booleans wait on release-build timing. Solid3D, Body and Region are now mapped read-only with the opaque payload excluded and preserved.

Solid3D, Body and Region are now mapped read-only with the opaque payload excluded and preserved.
- Completed `Region`. `SolidOperation::RegionFromProfile` reuses the REGION command's kernel calls and `doc.solids.region` exposes it; the lifecycle test creates regions from real circle and polyline entities and covers deletion of the source, refusals, a move, both formats and undo. Along the way `create_entity` now accepts `(x, y, z)` tuples for point properties (decided from the schema's property types) and every generated float setter accepts Python ints, so `create_entity('Circle', center=(0, 0, 0), radius=5)` works. Left: booleans (release timing first), holes and open-curve merging for regions, and `Surface`.
- Completed `Surface` for planes, extruded open profiles, isolines and rigid moves. `SurfaceFromProfile` and `Extrude` join the kernel operations (`doc.solids.surface` and `doc.solids.extrude`); `Extrude` also gives Solid3D extrusions from closed profiles, checked against analytic volumes. The test found and fixed a real bug: Surface's `kind` field silently overwrote the entity-type `kind` key in Python dicts, so it is exposed as `surface_kind`, and a new uniqueness test guards the whole catalog. Transform now accepts surfaces (a plane stays a plane; other kinds turn generic). Left: booleans (release timing first), regions with holes, and lofted, revolved, swept and NURBS surfaces. SectionSymbol is the only unmapped kind.
- Timed booleans in a release build (details in [cadkernel-body-path.md](cadkernel-body-path.md)). A curved box-and-cylinder boolean takes about 1 to 2.2 s, overlapping spheres 0.2 s and planar operands 1 to 2 ms, against 23 s in a debug build. The kernel refuses many curved cases quickly with a reason (`Coincident`, `CutRefused`, `NoClosedForm`), including a second cut in an already drilled box. Recommendation: add a synchronous `SolidOperation::Boolean` that surfaces the refusal and leaves the operands untouched, test it with planar operands plus one ignored curved case, and note the 30 s per-script budget. No code changed in this step.
- Implemented `SolidOperation::Boolean` and `doc.solids.union`, `subtract` and `intersect`, as recommended by the timing study. It runs synchronously, surfaces the kernel's refusal (`Coincident`, `CutRefused`, `NoClosedForm`) with a plain-language reason and the words "nothing was changed", consumes the operands unless `keep_operands`, and records one undo step. The lifecycle test uses planar boxes (millisecond cost, exact volumes, debug-safe) and an `#[ignore]` test documents a curved refusal. With this the kernel operations in the cadkernel note are all built. SectionSymbol is the only unmapped kind.
- Mapped `SectionSymbol`, the last unmapped kind, so all 43 canvas kinds now have explicit writes. The blocker recorded earlier was overstated: cadcodec documents `points` as canonical, says the counts equal the point count in every verified export, and provides `sync_display_fields()`, which OCS's own edits already call; OCS also renders a symbol with no style or view link. The host derives the counts and projections when `points` changes and validates that references are existing `SectionViewStyle` and `ViewRep` class objects. Every gate passes except DXF, where cadcodec reopens a top-level `SECTIONLINE` as an unknown entity (issue 5 in the cadcodec write-up, pinned by a canary). Still unverifiable here: the meaning of `raw_flags_90` and AutoCAD's acceptance of a symbol with no parent view.

- Completed `Ole2Frame` by adding creation. `SolidOperation::EmbedPicture` and `doc.embed_picture` build the frame from a picture file with OCS's own embedding code, so a script never touches the opaque storage; PNG, JPEG and BMP are stored byte-for-byte and other formats are re-encoded as PNG. The lifecycle test now creates through Python and the new creation-rules test covers formats, aspect, origin, layer and seven refusals. 30 kinds are complete.
- Completed `Viewport` by closing its missing canvas oracle and its derived state. The shared driver now switches the scene to the layout that owns a viewport and requires a drawn frame. The host assigns a unique id (at least 2) and derives `custom_scale = height / view_height` on every scripted create or edit, as MVIEW does, so `custom_scale` became read-only. A control showed my earlier suspicion was wrong: the default id 0 still draws a frame in a layout with no sheet viewport, so the id matters for uniqueness, not visibility. 31 kinds are complete.
- Improved `RasterImage` linkage. A scripted image now reuses one definition per file and registers it in `ACAD_IMAGE_DICT`, which owns it; this persists through DWG and DXF. The `IMAGEDEF_REACTOR` is deliberately not written: its owner convention is ambiguous between cadcodec's struct docs and its DXF writer and cannot be checked against AutoCAD here, so the kind stays integration-tested. An exploratory spike also showed that OCS's own IMAGE command creates bare images that lose their file path on save, an OCS bug outside this plugin work that is flagged separately.
