 Native projects live under `apps/capacitor/ios` and `apps/capacitor/android`. Open or run them from `apps/capacitor` with `npx cap open ios`, `npx cap open android`, or `npx cap run <platform>`.
 
+### Test the installed iOS PWA
+
+Run the normal `npm run dev` command, expose its printed network address through an HTTPS URL, and open that URL on the iPhone. The development server includes the PWA service worker and already listens on the local network. Safari still requires a secure context for the service worker; a plain LAN `http://` address is not sufficient. Choose **Share → Add to Home Screen**, then launch **NVR Messenger** from its Home Screen icon.
+
+The Navigation Lab reports `Standalone`, `ready`, and `App reserved` when the correct environment is active, and shows the exact build ID plus update-check count. Production builds check for updates whenever the app starts, returns to the foreground, regains connectivity, or has been open for a minute; activation reload waits for any live gesture to finish. Open a conversation and drag from the extreme left edge. The “Leading-edge touches claimed” counter should increment while the router renders its live predictive-back view.
+
+For more aggressive lifecycle testing, open **You → Runtime stress lab**. It is a deeper route that keeps the primary tab bar, opts into push-style sibling history, exposes its mount lifetime, and renders a one-second async child through `<Suspense>`. Backing out evicts this pushed screen after its exit; browser Forward reconstructs it and shows the fallback again. To exercise a guard against an already-mounted destination, visit **Stories**, switch to **You**, enable **Block cached Stories re-entry**, and try returning to Stories. The guard rejects and evicts the cached view.
+
+An installed web app cannot access `WKWebView.allowsBackForwardNavigationGestures`. The demo therefore reserves leading-edge touch sequences at the web-content boundary as an iOS standalone-only safeguard. Capacitor remains the deterministic option when native-level gesture suppression is required.

 Use `nativeRouter.sibling(to)` for tab or peer-route navigation. Direction is derived from `siblingOrder`, repeated navigation to the active route is a no-op, and `siblingHistory: 'replace'` keeps cached tab views out of the back stack.
 
+Sibling views are lazy rather than pre-mounted: only the initial route exists on startup, and a sibling joins the bounded cache on its first visit or interactive preview. Route metadata accepts `cache: false` to opt out or `cache: 'pin'` for views that must survive ordinary trimming. `useNativeViewLifecycle()`, the `onNativeView*` hooks, and `useNativeViewActiveEffect()` let cached screens pause polling, media, or subscriptions while retaining their local UI state.
+
+Call `nativeRouter.unload('/some-route')` to manually unmount inactive instances of one location while retaining their lightweight history descriptors. The active route and views participating in a transition are protected.
+
+### Capture frame pacing on a real device
+
+The Navigation Lab contains an opt-in profiler. Tap **Start profiling**, leave the lab, reproduce the choppy navigation once or twice, return to the lab, tap **Stop**, then **Share JSON**. Installed iOS PWAs use the system share sheet; other browsers download the file. Attach that JSON to a bug report.
+
+The core API is also available directly:
+
+```ts
+import { createNativeNavigationProfiler } from "@native-vue-router/core";
+
+const profiler = createNativeNavigationProfiler(nativeRouter, {
+  metadata: { build: import.meta.env.VITE_BUILD_ID },
+});
+
+profiler.start();
+// Reproduce the navigation issue.
+const report = profiler.stop();
+const json = profiler.toJSON(report);
+```
+
+No rAF loop or browser performance observer runs before `start()`, and `stop()` removes them. Reports contain frame intervals, refresh-rate estimates, per-navigation timing, cold-mount preparation, route loading, cache eviction, visibility changes, and browser-supported Long Task/layout-shift/resource timing. Route params, query values, and application state are omitted.

 Each preview subtree receives a scoped `routeLocationKey`, so `useRoute()` returns preview params even though the global route is not committed. A normal `router.push()` or `replace()` runs only after the gesture chooses to commit. A guard failure cancels the transaction and removes the preview.
 
+Preview routes can contain ordinary Vue `<Suspense>` boundaries.

 ## Transaction lifecycle
 
 Transactions move through `interactive`, `committing`, `settling`, and cancellation states. They expose normalized progress and velocity plus `fromKey`, `toKey`, direction, presentation, and optional source geometry.
 
 The runtime deliberately keeps two ledgers. The navigation stack mirrors committed push/replace/pop semantics and is the only source of predictive-back targets. The view cache owns mounted component instances independently, so a replaced tab can be reused without becoming an accidental back destination.
 
-Pointer movement changes only a CSS progress variable. Built-in presentations restrict active-frame work to compositor-friendly properties. Release uses distance/velocity intent and a damped spring. Reduced-motion mode settles immediately.
+Pointer movement changes only a CSS progress variable. Built-in presentations restrict active-frame work to compositor-friendly properties. When a destination needs a new component tree, the runtime resolves its lazy route, mounts it, and gives the browser a preparation frame before motion starts; cached destinations skip that wait. Velocity is expressed as normalized route progress per second, so gesture behavior remains consistent across screen sizes. Release uses distance/velocity intent and a damped spring whose settling rate follows the user's flick speed. Reduced-motion mode settles immediately.
+
+Settling animations are interruptible. A new button navigation or recognized gesture waits only for any in-flight Vue Router guard/history commit, immediately finalizes the old visual transaction, and begins from the newly authoritative route. It never waits for the previous spring to finish. Leading-edge back recognition runs in the navigator capture phase so partially visible component layers cannot steal the physical back edge.

 Applications can call `beginInteractive()`, `updateInteractive()`, and `finishInteractive()` to drive the same transaction engine from a bespoke recognizer.
 
 ## Cache semantics
 
-The active route and recent inactive routes remain mounted. The default limit is eight inactive views per runtime. Older entries keep their route descriptor but are unmounted and lazily restored when revisited. Application data that must survive eviction belongs in an application store.
+The cache is lazy: application startup mounts the current route, not every sibling. A replace-style sibling is created when it is first visited or previewed and can then remain mounted without becoming a browser-back entry. Recent history targets can also stay warm so predictive Back restores component-local state such as a scrolled list immediately.
+
+The default limit is four inactive views per runtime. `cache: false` always unmounts an inactive route, while `cache: 'pin'` exempts it from ordinary LRU and default bulk trimming. A pushed detail route that is popped or dismissed is unmounted after its exit animation unless it is explicitly pinned. If a guard rejects a cached destination, that component tree is evicted because it is no longer a valid navigation target. Older entries keep lightweight route descriptors and are lazily reconstructed if history reaches them again.
+
+Applications can explicitly release an inactive location with `nativeRouter.unload('/stories')`. It returns the number of component instances unmounted, retains history descriptors, and refuses to unload the active route or either side of an in-progress transition. `trimCache()` remains the bulk operation.
+
+This is deliberately not implemented with a single Vue `<KeepAlive>`. An interactive transition must render the current and destination route instances concurrently, while one `<KeepAlive>` outlet normally activates one selected child. Separate temporary wrappers would themselves be removed and lose their caches. The runtime therefore owns the small multi-view cache and exposes equivalent route-aware lifecycle signals:
+
+```ts
+import {
+  onNativeViewActivate,
+  onNativeViewDeactivate,
+  onNativeViewEvict,
+  useNativeViewActiveEffect,
+  useNativeViewLifecycle,
+} from "@native-vue-router/core";
+
+const view = useNativeViewLifecycle();
+
+useNativeViewActiveEffect(() => {
+  const timer = startPolling();
+  return () => stopPolling(timer);
+});
+
+onNativeViewEvict((reason) => saveDraft(view.route.value, reason));
+```
+
+`isActive` means the route is authoritative. `isVisible` also includes either side of an in-progress transition and the visible, inert route beneath a partial sheet. Use `useNativeViewActiveEffect` for polling and other work that should pause in a cached tab, or `useNativeViewVisibleEffect` for work needed during the animation or while painted beneath a sheet. Application data that must survive eviction belongs in an application store.
+
+## Optional performance profiler
+
+`createNativeNavigationProfiler(runtime)` correlates `requestAnimationFrame` intervals with timing-safe runtime events: route loading, cold view preparation, transaction start/commit/end, and eviction. It estimates the device's actual refresh interval instead of assuming 60 Hz, then flags frame gaps larger than 1.5 times that baseline. Reports also include Long Tasks, layout shifts, event timing, and resource timing when the host implements those Performance Observer entry types.
+
+Safari does not currently expose every Chromium performance entry, so rAF cadence and native-router events are the portable ground truth. Visibility changes are retained because backgrounding or the share sheet can throttle rAF and would otherwise resemble dropped frames. Sampling is completely opt-in and capped at 30,000 frames by default. Route labels use record names or declared path patterns, never params or query values.

+# Engineering Challenges, Vue Router Limitations, and Trade-offs
+
+## The fundamental mismatch
+
+Vue Router is designed around an authoritative current route. A navigation resolves a location, runs guards, updates history, and makes that location current; `<RouterView>` then renders the matching component. That model is correct for normal web navigation.
+
+Interactive native navigation needs a second, provisional route before any of those semantic effects are committed. The destination must be fully rendered beside the source while the user is still free to cancel. Much of the work in Native Vue Router exists to bridge that mismatch without forking Vue Router or relying on its internals.
+
+## Challenge 1: showing two route locations at once
+
+### Limitation
+
+The usual `<RouterView>` follows the global current route. A CSS transition around a normal router view can animate old and new DOM after navigation, but it cannot naturally provide a live, reversible destination before navigation.
+
+### Approach
+
+The runtime resolves and loads the destination, creates a preview entry, and renders explicit router views for both entries using the `route` prop. A scoped `routeLocationKey` is provided inside each entry so descendants using `useRoute()` read the correct route for that surface.
+
+### Trade-off
+
+Two component trees may be live simultaneously. Preview components can mount before commit, so their setup and data loading must tolerate cancellation. Irreversible side effects should be tied to committed application state or view activation, not blindly to component mount.
+
+## Challenge 2: preserving Vue Router authority
+
+### Limitation
+
+It would be simpler to maintain a completely separate navigation stack and update the URL afterward, but that would bypass guards, redirects, route encoding, and existing Vue Router integrations.
+
+### Approach
+
+The preview phase never mutates Vue Router history. Commit uses public Vue Router navigation operations. The runtime then accepts the actual resulting route, including redirects, as authoritative and discards any stale preview.
+
+### Trade-off
+
+The visual runtime must maintain and reconcile a second ledger. This is deliberate duplication of visual/navigation bookkeeping, with explicit invariants to keep the two systems aligned.
+
+## Challenge 3: predictive back and opaque browser history
+
+### Limitation
+
+The browser does not expose a portable array of prior route locations. Calling `router.back()` also does not synchronously reveal the destination. A cold-start deep link may have an external page, another application, or no useful same-app route behind it.
+
+### Approach
+
+The runtime records committed native view keys and uses that ledger for warm-session predictive back. Routes can declare a logical `parent` for cold-start prediction. The actual pop still goes through Vue Router/browser history when a real entry exists.
+
+### Trade-off
+
+Applications must describe route topology where history alone is insufficient. A declared parent is a product-level relationship, not proof that the corresponding browser history entry exists. Synthetic parents use replace semantics when committed.
+
+## Challenge 4: guards, redirects, and asynchronous loading
+
+### Limitation
+
+Lazy modules, route guards, redirects, and browser pops resolve asynchronously. Meanwhile, gesture input and animation frames continue. A response from an old navigation can arrive after a newer interaction has started.
+
+### Approach
+
+Every transaction and begin attempt receives a monotonically increasing identity. Async continuations verify that they still own the current attempt and transaction before mutating state. Guard rejection springs back; redirect results become authoritative; stale previews are removed.
+
+### Trade-off
+
+Only one visual transaction is authoritative at a time. The runtime supports rapid sequential interruption, not multiple independent transitions mutating one navigator concurrently.
+
+## Challenge 5: interruption without a navigation cooldown
+
+### Limitation
+
+The easiest animation model locks input until a transition completes. That creates a visible cooldown and feels unlike a native application. Simply cancelling animation promises is unsafe because Vue Router may already be committing history.
+
+### Approach
+
+Settling motion and semantic navigation are treated separately. A new interaction can interrupt the spring immediately, but it waits for any already-started Vue Router navigation to resolve. The prior transaction is finalized at the route Vue Router accepted, and the new transaction begins from that authoritative state.
+
+Pointer recognizers also detach their local state before awaiting anything. Captured progress, velocity, and transaction ID travel with the old release callback, while a new pointer can start cleanly. Both move and release continuations check ownership before cleanup.
+
+### Trade-off
+
+A route guard or browser-history operation can still impose real latency because semantic navigation cannot safely be cancelled after the platform has begun it. The library removes animation cooldown; it cannot remove application guard or network latency.
+
+## Challenge 6: direction and topology for sibling routes
+
+### Limitation
+
+Vue Router knows route hierarchy and matching, but not that `/inbox`, `/stories`, and `/profile` are ordered pages on a horizontal strip. Browser history order also does not necessarily match visual tab order.
+
+### Approach
+
+The navigator receives its peer route list, while routes declare `siblingOrder` and optional sibling history semantics. Direction is derived from route order. The sibling presentation moves both surfaces one-to-one, rather than placing a new foreground layer over the old one.
+
+### Trade-off
+
+Visual topology must be explicit. Automatic inference from route declaration order would be fragile in modular or dynamically registered route sets.
+
+## Challenge 7: velocity that behaves consistently
+
+### Limitation
+
+Raw pointer velocity in pixels per millisecond changes meaning with viewport size. A fixed-duration animation also ignores whether the user released slowly or flicked decisively.
+
+### Approach
+
+Velocity is normalized by the gesture surface width or height and expressed as route progress per second. It influences both the commit decision and the rate of the damped settling spring. High-speed springs are advanced in small simulation substeps to avoid numerical instability.
+
+### Trade-off
+
+The current spring constants and velocity scaling are shared defaults rather than a fully configurable physics system. Extremely high input is clamped, preserving stability over perfectly reproducing every raw pointer sample.
+
+## Challenge 8: gesture arbitration
+
+### Limitation
+
+A horizontal movement may mean browser back, application back, tab paging, a component action, text selection, or ordinary scrolling. Bubbling alone is insufficient because a partially revealed child layer can steal the physical edge from its navigator.
+
+### Approach
+
+Leading-edge back recognition runs in the navigator's capture phase. Component gestures own non-edge drags by stopping propagation. Recognition waits for a directional threshold, then uses pointer capture. Form controls and explicit ignore regions are excluded, while CSS `touch-action` leaves the perpendicular scroll axis available.
+
+### Trade-off
+
+Applications must design gesture regions intentionally. Highly interactive canvases, maps, carousels, editors, and nested horizontal scrollers should opt out or provide their own arbitration.
+
+## Challenge 9: native edge gestures on the web
+
+### Limitation
+
+Web content cannot set `WKWebView.allowsBackForwardNavigationGestures`. In a normal iOS Safari tab, the browser may reserve an edge sequence before page JavaScript receives enough input to implement its own predictive back.
+
+### Approach
+
+The installed iOS PWA uses a non-passive leading-edge touch guard at capture time and disables horizontal overscroll as far as web content permits. The guard is intentionally inactive in a normal browser tab. Electron disables Chromium overscroll history navigation at the host level. Capacitor supplies the deterministic native container option.
+
+### Trade-off
+
+An installed PWA can provide a strong approximation, not an absolute WebKit-level guarantee. Products that require complete ownership of the native back gesture should use the Capacitor host.
+
+## Challenge 10: view caching without corrupting history
+
+### Limitation
+
+Keeping a tab mounted is a rendering concern; deciding whether Back should visit it is a history concern. Treating one list as both caused stale conversations and replaced tabs to appear as incorrect back targets.
+
+### Approach
+
+The runtime separates the history-key ledger from the mounted-view cache. A replaced sibling is created lazily and can remain reusable without entering the back path. Popped pushed routes and guard-rejected destinations are evicted; history descriptors remain available for reconstruction. Statuses distinguish active, inactive, preview, and evicted entries. Route-aware active/visible effects give cached components a way to suspend work.
+
+### Trade-off
+
+Mounted routes consume memory. The inactive cache is bounded and can be trimmed by the host, while `cache: false` and `cache: 'pin'` make exceptional route policy explicit. Evicted component-local state is not guaranteed to survive. Durable state belongs in Pinia, another store, IndexedDB, or the backend.
+
+Vue's `<KeepAlive>` was not used as the cache owner. One shared wrapper is designed to select a current child, but a predictive gesture renders two route instances concurrently. Creating independent wrappers per temporary route layer would make wrapper lifetime control cache lifetime and complicate deterministic LRU eviction. The trade-off is a small router-owned cache with lifecycle APIs instead of Vue's built-in activated/deactivated hooks.
+
+## Challenge 11: accessibility with concurrent routes
+
+### Limitation
+
+Two visible DOM subtrees can create duplicate landmarks, focus targets, and screen-reader content. A hidden cached route can also accidentally receive pointer or keyboard input.
+
+### Approach
+
+Inactive entries are hidden, `inert`, and `aria-hidden`. Only the active route or interactive pair is presented visually. Back and tab controls remain semantic buttons and links. Reduced-motion preference settles transactions immediately.
+
+### Trade-off
+
+Custom presentations and application overlays must preserve these invariants. Focus transfer at commit may still require application-specific handling for complex screens.
+
+## Challenge 12: reliable PWA updates
+
+### Limitation
+
+Service-worker lifecycle, HTTP caching, Safari foreground behavior, and installed Home Screen state can leave an old application shell active even after a deployment. Reloading immediately is also dangerous during an interactive transaction.
+
+### Approach
+
+Production builds use automatic worker activation and check on registration, focus, foreground resume, reconnection, and a periodic timer. Reload is deferred until the native transaction is idle. The demo exposes a build ID and update-check count, and local development/preview uses conservative cache headers.
+
+### Trade-off
+
+Deployment infrastructure must still avoid long-lived caching for `sw.js` and the HTML shell. A client running code from before the automatic update policy may need one final manual refresh or reinstall; new code cannot retroactively change an old worker's behavior before it is loaded.
+
+## Current limitations
+
+- Client-side DOM navigation is the first-class target; SSR and hydration of a live visual stack are not currently a complete feature.
+- One runtime coordinates one authoritative visual transaction at a time. Independent nested navigation controllers need an explicit ownership design.
+- `navigator` and `siblingGroup` metadata are reserved topology fields; the current `NativeNavigator` still receives its sibling route list explicitly. Likewise, `gesture: false` is the enforced opt-out, while finer `edge`/`full` policy is primarily expressed by navigator and component structure today.
+- Route previews may mount application code that later gets cancelled.
+- Cold-start predictive back requires declared parent topology.
+- Cache eviction does not preserve arbitrary component-local state.
+- The browser cannot guarantee native gesture suppression at the same level as Capacitor or a custom `WKWebView`.
+- Presentation physics are currently library defaults rather than route-by-route configurable tokens.
+- Long sessions keep lightweight route descriptors in the ledger even when their component trees are evicted. Mounted DOM is bounded, but applications with exceptionally large histories may eventually benefit from indexed lookup and descriptor compaction.
+- Native appearance is broader than navigation: slow screen rendering, non-native controls, layout shifts, or inappropriate typography can still break the illusion.

+# How Native Vue Router Works
+
+## Purpose
+
+Native Vue Router adds an interactive visual navigation layer to Vue Router. Its goal is not merely to make route changes slide instead of fade. It is designed so navigation itself can be manipulated: a user can reveal a destination, stop halfway, reverse direction, release with velocity, or begin another navigation before the previous animation has settled.
+
+The library supports four related navigation styles through one transaction engine:
+
+- Edge-driven predictive back, including drag-and-hold.
+- One-to-one paging between ordered sibling routes such as primary tabs.
+- Component-originated navigation, where dragging a row or card reveals its destination.
+- Presented routes such as modals and sheets, including interactive dismissal.
+
+Buttons and links use the same engine as gestures. A tab click, back button, programmatic push, and interactive swipe differ only in how progress is supplied and whether the final commit decision is forced.
+
+## The central idea: semantic state and visual state are different
+
+Vue Router remains the authority for semantic navigation: route matching, URLs, parameters, redirects, guards, lazy route modules, and browser history. Native Vue Router owns temporary visual state: mounted route surfaces, interactive progress, motion, and the relationship between the surface being left and the surface being revealed.
+
+That separation produces two ledgers:
+
+| Ledger              | Owns                                                | Source of truth for                               |
+| ------------------- | --------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------- |
+| Vue Router          | Current committed route and browser history         | What URL the application is actually on           |
+| Native view runtime | Active, inactive, preview, and evicted view entries | What route surfaces can be rendered during motion |
+
+The ledgers agree at rest. During a gesture they intentionally diverge: Vue Router still reports the committed `from` route while the native runtime also renders an uncommitted `to` route.
+
+## Preview before commit
+
+A forward interaction follows a two-phase process:
+
+1. Resolve the target with Vue Router.
+2. Load its lazy route component without pushing a history entry.
+3. Add a preview entry to the native view ledger.
+4. Render both the committed route and preview route through explicit `<RouterView :route>` instances.
+5. Drive their transforms from normalized gesture progress between `0` and `1`.
+6. On release, decide whether to commit from distance and velocity.
+7. Only then call Vue Router's `push()`, `replace()`, or browser-backed `back()`.
+8. Reconcile the visual ledger with the route Vue Router actually accepted.
+
+If the user reverses the gesture or a navigation guard rejects the target, the preview springs away and is removed. The URL never briefly changes to a route that the user did not commit.
+
+Each preview subtree receives its own scoped Vue Router route injection. As a result, components rendered in the preview see the preview's params and metadata through `useRoute()`, even though the application's global committed route has not changed yet.
+
+## Predictive back
+
+Back navigation is harder than forward navigation because browser history does not expose a reliable, portable list of previous route objects. The runtime therefore maintains its own committed history-key ledger alongside Vue Router.
+
+When a back gesture starts, the runtime locates the preceding native view entry and renders it beneath the current one. The browser URL remains unchanged while the user drags. On commit, the runtime calls Vue Router/browser back and reconciles with the route that actually wins.
+
+A cold-start deep link has no in-memory predecessor. Route metadata can declare a logical `parent`, either as a route location or a function of the current route. That gives the runtime a synthetic predictive-back destination without pretending that a browser history entry exists.
+
+## Transactions
+
+All navigation motion is represented by a `NativeTransaction`. A transaction identifies:
+
+- Its kind: push, pop, sibling, present, or dismiss.
+- The `from` and `to` view keys.
+- Direction and presentation.
+- Normalized progress and velocity.
+- Whether commit uses push or replace semantics.
+- Its lifecycle phase and optional component source geometry.
+
+The important phases are interactive, committing, and settling. During the interactive phase, pointer movement directly controls progress. A release changes the phase and starts a damped spring toward either `0` or `1`.
+
+Velocity is measured as route progress per second rather than pixels per millisecond. A flick therefore behaves consistently on a small phone and a wide desktop window. High release velocity also advances the settling spring faster, so fast intent produces fast completion.
+
+Transactions are interruptible. Starting a new navigation while a spring is settling does not wait for the old visual animation. The runtime waits only for an in-flight Vue Router history or guard decision, finalizes the old transaction at its authoritative endpoint, and begins the next transaction from that route. Transaction IDs prevent delayed pointer, preload, animation, and navigation callbacks from mutating a newer interaction.
+
+## Rendering and presentation
+
+`NativeRouterView` keeps cached route entries as sibling layers. At rest, only the active layer is interactive. A partial sheet also keeps its prior route visible but inert as an underlay. During a transaction, exactly the `from` and `to` entries receive interactive roles.
+
+Built-in presentations include push, reveal, adjacent-page slide, fade, modal, sheet, and no-motion. Sheets retain their presentation after commit so they remain below the device safe top and can use content height or developer-defined snap points while the inert route beneath stays visible. Partial sheets animate their measured surface instead of a transparent viewport-sized wrapper, preserving motion from the first frame and keeping the underlay scale continuous across commit. Their scroll body hands top/down and bottom/up overscroll to sheet resizing while retaining ordinary content scrolling at interior positions. Sibling slide is deliberately different from a stack push: both pages move one screen-width for one screen-width of gesture progress, so the interaction feels like paging a continuous horizontal surface.
+
+The runtime publishes progress as a CSS custom property. Built-in motion is mostly expressed through transforms and opacity, keeping per-frame JavaScript work constant. Applications can register presentations whose layer styles are functions of progress, role, direction, and optional source geometry.
+
+First use has unavoidable setup work—downloading/evaluating a lazy chunk and mounting/layout of its Vue tree—but it does not need to compete with the transition. The runtime completes lazy resolution first, then gives newly mounted destinations a browser preparation frame before advancing progress. Full-surface dimming uses a composited opacity overlay rather than a changing CSS filter so WebKit does not repeatedly rasterize the route subtree.
+
+## Gesture ownership
+
+Gesture recognition uses Pointer Events and waits for clear directional intent before claiming a pointer. Vertical scrolling remains available through `touch-action`, while form controls, editable content, and elements marked with `data-native-gesture="ignore"` are excluded.
+
+Ownership is explicit:
+
+- The application navigator owns the physical leading edge for back navigation.
+- A component gesture link owns drags that begin on that component away from the back edge.
+- A sheet dismissal surface owns downward vertical drags.
+
+Scrollable sheets choose content or sheet ownership from the gesture's initial directional intent and keep that owner until release. A content-owned gesture does not become a sheet gesture merely because it later reaches an edge or reverses; the next gesture can begin at that edge and resize the sheet. This prevents concurrent scrolling and avoids applying distance accumulated by content to sheet geometry.
+
+Pointer capture keeps delivery stable after recognition. Recognizer state is detached synchronously at pointer release, before route loading or animation promises are awaited. This is essential: a delayed callback from one gesture must never erase the state of a newer gesture.
+
+## History and cache are intentionally separate
+
+Primary sibling routes normally replace one another in history. Their component trees can still remain mounted in the view cache. This means returning to a tab can preserve local UI state without making every tab selection a browser-back destination.
+
+Siblings are mounted lazily on their first visit or gesture preview, not all at application startup. The cache has a configurable inactive-view limit and an explicit opt-out/pin policy. Popping a pushed route releases its component tree after the exit animation; a rejected cached guard target is evicted immediately. Older entries retain route descriptors but their component trees are unmounted and restored lazily. Durable application data should live in an application store rather than depending on a route component remaining cached forever.
+
+A normal Vue `<KeepAlive>` is excellent when one outlet selects one child. It is not the cache primitive here because an interactive transition needs two independently addressed route instances to be active at once. Instead, the router owns those sibling view instances and exposes active, visible, cached, and eviction lifecycle signals. This preserves the useful KeepAlive distinction—mounted versus currently active—without coupling navigation history to Vue's single-child activation model.
+
+## Platform behavior
+
+The core runtime is host-neutral. Platform adapters add capabilities that a browser-only router should not own:
+
+- The PWA adapter reserves the leading edge in installed iOS standalone mode as early as web content allows.
+- The Electron adapter disables Chromium overscroll history navigation and bridges host back/forward commands.
+- The Capacitor adapter integrates hardware back, deep links, app lifecycle cancellation, root exit, and haptics.
+
+This is progressive capability, not user-agent imitation. Normal browser tabs still work, but a browser may reserve gestures before JavaScript can claim them. Electron and Capacitor can disable or coordinate host behavior more deterministically.
+
+## Why this pattern is uncommon
+
+There is prior work in mobile web navigation and animated router outlets, so the claim is not that interactive routing has never existed. What is unusual is combining Vue Router compatibility, live destination previews, reversible gestures, native-style history semantics, interruption, and multiple hosts in one reusable runtime.
+
+Several factors make that combination rare:
+
+1. **Web routers are commit-first.** Their normal unit of work is “change the current location, then render it.” Native interaction needs “render the possible destination, let the user manipulate it, then decide whether location changes.”
+2. **The platform does not expose a native navigation controller.** Browser history, DOM rendering, pointer recognition, safe areas, service workers, and host gestures are separate systems with separate lifecycles.
+3. **Two live routes complicate assumptions.** Route injection, focus, accessibility, component side effects, caching, redirects, and scroll ownership all become more difficult when a route is visible but not current.
+4. **Correct interruption is harder than animation.** A polished demo can lock input while a transition runs. A native-feeling library must accept new intent during route loading, guard resolution, history mutation, and spring settling without stale asynchronous work winning.
+5. **Host guarantees differ.** A browser tab cannot promise the same edge ownership as a native `WKWebView`, while Electron and Capacitor can change host settings.
+6. **The implementation cost is disproportionate.** Most web products can accept non-interactive transitions. The additional state machine, testing matrix, memory use, and platform work are justified only when navigation feel is a core product requirement.
+
+Native Vue Router addresses this by treating interactive navigation as its own stateful system while leaving Vue Router authoritative wherever Vue Router is strongest.
+
+## Scope
+
+The library is a client-side navigation runtime, not a replacement for Vue Router and not a native rendering engine. It can closely reproduce native navigation composition and input behavior, but final fidelity still depends on application design, frame performance, platform embedding, typography, safe-area handling, and avoiding expensive work in route components during a gesture.

 ## PWA and browser
 
-The demo uses a standalone manifest, safe-area environment variables, and a generated Workbox service worker. Updates are prompted and cannot reload while a gesture is active. `overscroll-behavior` suppresses pull-to-refresh and history overscroll where supported; `touch-action` reserves horizontal manipulation only on navigator-owned surfaces.
+The demo uses a standalone manifest, Apple Home Screen metadata and PNG icons, safe-area environment variables, and a generated Workbox service worker. Production builds check for updates on startup, focus, foreground resume, network reconnection, and once per minute. A new worker activates automatically; its page reload is deferred until no gesture transaction is active. The Navigation Lab exposes the build ID, update checks, live display mode, service-worker state, edge-guard state, and intercepted-touch count.
 
-Mobile operating systems can reserve gestures that web content cannot suppress in every browser mode. The full interaction system targets installed PWAs. Normal tabs retain links, buttons, history, and non-interactive transitions as their fallback.
+The normal `npm run dev` server enables the development service worker and listens on local network interfaces; no PWA-specific command is required. iOS still requires the resulting address to be delivered through HTTPS before service-worker and Home Screen behavior is available.
+
+For a production-style update test, deploy successive `npm run build` outputs at the same HTTPS origin. The service-worker entry file must be served without long-lived HTTP caching; fingerprinted files under `assets/` can remain immutable. An already-installed build that predates the automatic updater may require one final manual refresh or reinstall before it can receive the new update policy.
+
+In an installed iOS Home Screen app, the PWA adapter installs non-passive leading-edge touch listeners before the navigator gesture and applies `overscroll-behavior-x: none`. This gives the application the earliest web-content opportunity to claim the sequence. The guard is disabled in normal Safari tabs so the demo does not unexpectedly override browser navigation.
+
+Mobile operating systems can reserve gestures before web content receives them. A PWA cannot set `WKWebView.allowsBackForwardNavigationGestures`, so absolute native-level suppression cannot be guaranteed from JavaScript. The full interaction system targets installed PWAs; use the Capacitor host when that native switch must be deterministic. Normal tabs retain links, buttons, history, and non-interactive transitions as their fallback.

+# Core Principles, Scalability, and Flexibility
+
+## Core principles
+
+### 1. Vue Router remains authoritative
+
+Native Vue Router is a visual transaction system around Vue Router, not a competing URL router. Matching, encoding, guards, redirects, and committed history stay with Vue Router. If the two systems disagree after navigation, Vue Router's accepted route wins.
+
+This principle preserves compatibility and gives the runtime a clear recovery rule.
+
+### 2. Preview is not commitment
+
+A destination may be loaded, mounted, and visible without being current. Gesture progress must never imply semantic commitment. The URL, browser history, analytics, and irreversible business actions should change only when the transaction commits.
+
+### 3. Gestures are first-class navigation input
+
+A gesture is not a decorative transition attached after `router.push()`. It begins a navigation candidate, controls its progress, and chooses commit or cancellation. Buttons, links, hardware back, and gestures feed the same runtime so they cannot develop contradictory behavior.
+
+### 4. Navigation must remain interruptible
+
+Users should not wait for visual settling before expressing the next intent. Animations are disposable; committed route decisions are not. New input may interrupt presentation immediately while respecting any semantic operation already in flight.
+
+### 5. Route topology should be explicit
+
+History order, visual sibling order, and logical parentage are different concepts. Applications declare parent and sibling relationships rather than relying on incidental route registration or click history.
+
+### 6. History and rendering are separate concerns
+
+A route can be cached without belonging in the back stack, and a back destination can be reconstructed without remaining mounted. This separation is essential for tabs, sheets, deep links, and bounded memory.
+
+### 7. Async work never owns state forever
+
+Every preload, pointer continuation, route commit, and animation frame is conditional on a current attempt or transaction identity. Stale work becomes a no-op. Cleanup is ownership-aware and cannot erase a newer gesture.
+
+### 8. The active frame should be cheap
+
+Pointer movement updates normalized progress. Rendering derives from that value. Built-in sibling motion uses only adjacent transforms, and JavaScript work per frame does not grow with route count. Route components should avoid layout churn and heavyweight synchronous work during previews.
+
+### 9. Host capabilities are adapters, not conditionals scattered through core
+
+Hardware back, haptics, deep links, WebKit edge behavior, and Electron command-line switches belong at the platform boundary. The transaction model remains the same across hosts.
+
+### 10. Accessibility is a state invariant
+
+Cached and preview DOM must not create duplicate interactive applications. Inactive layers are isolated from focus and assistive technology, controls keep native semantics, and reduced-motion behavior is deterministic.
+
+## Scalability model
+
+The runtime is intended to scale in four different ways: number of routes, session length, application complexity, and number of host platforms.
+
+### Route and DOM scale
+
+Only the active route, previously visited inactive routes, and a transaction preview need mounted component trees. Siblings are not instantiated eagerly at application startup. `maxInactive` bounds the inactive mounted cache; the default is four. Pinned entries are deliberately outside this ordinary budget. Older views are marked evicted and lazily remounted when needed.
+
+During an interaction, animation work concerns two surfaces regardless of total route count:
+
+| Resource                         | Growth behavior                       |
+| -------------------------------- | ------------------------------------- |
+| Animated surfaces                | Constant: `from` and `to`             |
+| Mounted inactive component trees | Bounded by `maxInactive`              |
+| Route descriptors/history keys   | Grows with navigation history         |
+| Per-frame transaction state      | Constant                              |
+| Lazy route code                  | Loaded on first preview or navigation |
+
+The current implementation uses linear searches through view entries for some reconciliation operations. This is appropriate for ordinary application histories and a small mounted cache. If the runtime is used for sessions with thousands of unique committed entries, a key/path index and descriptor compaction would be a sensible evolution without changing the public transaction model.
+
+### Data scale
+
+The view cache is not an application data cache. Large collections, message history, drafts, and durable form state should live outside route component instances. This allows view eviction to remain cheap and makes state available whether a route is reached through a gesture, deep link, background notification, or restored session.
+
+Cached components should also avoid doing active-screen work indefinitely. Route-aware lifecycle effects let polling, animation loops, media, and subscriptions stop while a component is inactive and resume without losing its local render state. Hosts can call `trimCache()` under memory pressure; the Capacitor adapter does so when the app pauses by default.
+
+Preview loading should fetch only what the destination needs to render its initial surface. Applications can use route-level lazy imports, shared stores, request deduplication, and cancellation to avoid duplicating expensive work during a cancelled preview.
+
+### Team and feature scale
+
+Navigation policy is carried by route metadata and small primitives rather than screen-specific animation code. Feature teams can define:
+
+- Presentation and gesture policy on their routes.
+- Logical parents for deep-linked screens.
+- Sibling order and history behavior for peer lists owned by a navigator.
+- Component-owned gesture entry points.
+
+Cross-cutting behavior remains in the runtime. This reduces the risk that every feature implements a slightly different back threshold, history mutation, or animation lock.
+
+For very large applications, route topology should be assembled from typed feature modules and validated in tests. Parent cycles, duplicate sibling ordering, and incompatible nested gesture regions are application configuration errors and should be caught before runtime.
+
+### Platform scale
+
+The `NativePlatformAdapter` interface keeps platform growth additive. A new host can install listeners, provide haptics, or coordinate root exit without changing route matching or presentation code. The existing PWA, Electron, and Capacitor adapters demonstrate three capability levels:
+
+1. Best-effort control from web content.
+2. Desktop host control around a web renderer.
+3. Native mobile container integration.
+
+Platform-specific policy should not leak into route components unless the product experience genuinely differs.
+
+## Flexibility and extension points
+
+### Route metadata
+
+Metadata expresses topology and defaults close to route definitions:
+
+```ts
+{
+  path: '/chat/:id',
+  component: () => import('./ChatView.vue'),
+  meta: {
+    native: {
+      parent: '/inbox',
+      presentation: 'push',
+      gesture: 'edge',
+    },
+  },
+}
+```
+
+Ordered peers are passed to `NativeNavigator`. Their routes use `siblingOrder` to derive direction, while `siblingHistory` decides whether selection replaces or grows history. Metadata supplies defaults, while individual runtime calls can override presentation, direction, replacement, and source geometry. `gesture: false` disables navigator gesture handling for a route; finer ownership remains structural in the current implementation.
+
+### Custom presentations
+
+Presentation definitions receive only the data needed to derive layer styles:
+
+```ts
+nativeRouter.registerPresentation(
+  definePresentation({
+    name: "scale-fade",
+    axis: "x",
+    layerStyle({ role, progress }) {
+      return role === "to"
+        ? { opacity: progress, transform: `scale(${0.94 + progress * 0.06})` }
+        : { opacity: 1 - progress * 0.25 };
+    },
+  }),
+);
+```
+
+A presentation does not decide history or commit. Keeping motion separate from navigation semantics makes new visual styles safer to add.
+
+### Custom recognizers
+
+Applications with a bespoke interaction can call:
+
+- `beginInteractive()` to create and preload a candidate.
+- `updateInteractive()` with normalized progress and velocity.
+- `finishInteractive()` to apply the normal commit decision.
+- `cancelInteractive()` to settle back.
+
+This permits interactions such as a card expansion, trackpad scrub, keyboard-driven preview, or canvas gesture without duplicating the route transaction machinery.
+
+Custom recognizers must follow the same ownership rules: one current transaction, normalized input, stale-callback protection, and explicit cancellation on teardown.
+
+### Visual presets
+
+The core owns behavior and minimum presentation CSS. Higher-level packages can supply tab bars, back controls, motion tokens, typography, and platform-adaptive appearance. Product teams can replace the preset without replacing the transaction runtime.
+
+### Platform adapters
+
+Adapters can install host listeners and optionally provide haptic feedback or root-exit behavior. They should translate host events into runtime operations instead of editing runtime ledgers directly.
+
+## Adoption patterns
+
+The architecture supports incremental use:
+
+1. **Imperative transitions only:** use `push`, `pop`, `sibling`, `present`, and `dismiss` with buttons and links.
+2. **Predictive back:** wrap the route surface in `NativeNavigator` and declare cold-start parents.
+3. **Horizontal route paging:** add ordered sibling routes.
+4. **Component-originated navigation:** wrap selected rows or cards with `NativeGestureLink`.
+5. **Custom product motion:** register presentations or drive transactions from a custom recognizer.
+6. **Host integration:** add the PWA, Electron, or Capacitor adapter according to the guarantees required.
+
+Teams do not need to make every route gesture-driven at once. Route metadata can disable gestures while retaining native runtime navigation.
+
+## Reliability and testing principles
+
+Interactive routing failures are temporal, so tests must assert state during transitions rather than only final URLs. The test suite should preserve these invariants:
+
+- The `from` and `to` routes are both live during a held gesture.
+- The URL does not change before commit.
+- Sibling direction follows declared order.
+- Adjacent siblings remain edge-to-edge at intermediate progress.
+- Navigating to the active route is a strict no-op.
+- A guard rejection removes the preview and restores the source.
+- Back never selects an unrelated cached view.
+- A new click or gesture can interrupt settling.
+- Rapid pointer releases cannot leave an orphaned transaction.
+- Fast, short flicks commit through velocity and settle faster.
+- Modal and sheet presentation is independent of previous history shape.
+- PWA worker activation and update checks remain observable.
+
+Final-state tests alone would miss most of the bugs that make a router feel non-native.
+
+## Evolution rules
+
+Future work should preserve the following boundaries:
+
+- Do not make preview routes authoritative early to simplify animation.
+- Do not infer back targets from the mounted cache.
+- Do not make presentation definitions mutate history.
+- Do not solve platform behavior with host checks scattered through core.
+- Do not introduce input locks as a substitute for correct interruption.
+- Do not let stale async cleanup run without verifying ownership.
+- Do not rely on component mount as proof of committed navigation.
+
+Likely extensions include configurable spring profiles, indexed ledgers for unusually long sessions, stronger focus restoration, explicit multi-navigator ownership, SSR-safe initial stack hydration, and more platform-specific motion presets. Each can be added while retaining the same central model: preview visually, commit semantically, and reconcile authoritatively.

+# Routeless origins architecture
+
+The v2 experiment lives in `packages/core-v2` and its physical test application
+lives in `apps/origins-demo`.
+
+## State model
+
+The scene contains:
+
+- stable, flat Vue component nodes;
+- linked mounted-instance history entries;
+- temporary directed operation edges.
+
+It does not contain an active route or current view.
+
+For overlapping operations:
+
+```text
+Nodes:       X, Y, Z
+Edges:       X → Y
+             Y → Z
+```
+
+Each edge records its own progress, velocity, outcome, choreography, and
+source/target keys.
+
+## Coordinate composition
+
+Suppose A is X→Y and B is Y→Z:
+
+```text
+visual(X) = A.source
+visual(Y) = A.target × B.source
+visual(Z) = A.target × B.target
+```
+
+An optional frame effect is included on both sides of an edge:
+
+```text
+visual(Y) = A.frame × A.target × B.frame × B.source
+visual(Z) = A.frame × A.target × B.frame × B.target
+```
+
+The implementation emits these operations as one combined transform on each
+flat host. This has the visual semantics of nested coordinate frames without
+reparenting Vue component VNodes.
+
+## Completion
+
+Committing a forward X→Y:
+
+1. Keeps X mounted but marks it parked, inert, and visually hidden.
+2. Places Y in X's former visual graph position.
+3. Removes the X→Y edge.
+4. Leaves any Y→Z edge and all mounted descendants intact.
+
+Committing Y→Z before X→Y is also valid. Z replaces Y as the target of the
+still-running X edge, after which X→Y effectively becomes X→Z. The unit suite
+covers both completion orders.
+
+Committing back from Y to X reveals the existing X node and removes Y. It does
+not construct X again from its recipe. Cancelling a forward edge restores its
+source and removes the newly created target branch; cancelling a back edge
+re-parks its retained target.
+
+Committing a replace from Y to Z creates Z but links it directly to Y's
+previous entry:
+
+```text
+Before: X (parked) ← Y (visible)
+After:  X (parked) ← Z (visible)
+```
+
+Y remains mounted while the operation is interactive and is removed only on
+commit. Cancelling removes Z and restores Y, making replacement one atomic
+operation rather than a visible back followed by a forward push.
+
+### Connected partial presentations
+
+Most committed pushes collapse their temporary operation edge and park the
+retained source. A choreography with `persistAtRest: true` instead keeps its
+progress-`1` effects as a settled coordinate relationship:
+
+```text
+Page (exposed, inert) → Drawer (active)
+```
+
+This supports partial destinations without copying or remounting either Vue
+component. For a two-thirds drawer, the settled source effect translates the
+page right by two thirds, while the target finishes at its identity position.
+The page's left third therefore remains physically visible in the final third
+of the viewport.
+
+Settled relationships are not live operations and are omitted from the public
+operation diagnostics. Beginning back temporarily suspends the relationship
+and lets a reciprocal close choreography start at the same endpoints. A
+cancelled close restores the settled edge; a committed close removes the drawer
+and returns the page to its normal root position.
+
+## Interaction
+
+Gesture recognition is declared within each component through
+`OriginGesture` or `useOriginGesture()`. The injected scene-node key determines
+the origin. Recognition never asks a coordinator which view is active.
+
+The immutable `gesture` builder separates optional pointer-down policy
+(`.from`), movement recognition (`.to`), release policy (`.complete`),
+navigation intent (`.navigate`), and visual choreography (`.animate`). A chain
+that begins at `.to` is valid and admits pointer-down anywhere on its host.
+
+At pointer release, the operation decides synchronously whether it will commit
+or cancel. Its spring may continue afterward. A retained target can therefore
+originate another routine while the preceding spring is still visible.
+
+### Nested scenes
+
+An `OriginScene` may be rendered inside a view owned by another scene. The
+nearest injected node scope makes carousel or deck gestures operate on the
+nested scene, with local measurements and retained history.
+
+Gesture ownership between nested scenes is currently selected at pointer-down.
+An eligible child stops propagation even if its later navigation factory
+declines. Parent fallback therefore requires the child to reserve a
+non-matching `.from` region; automatic delayed arbitration remains future
+gesture-arena work.
+
+## Retained history
+
+Each pushed node stores the key of its mounted previous entry. The chain is
+local to that origin context rather than a URL:
+
+```text
+X (parked) ← Y (parked) ← Z (visible)
+```
+
+Back targets the previous node key directly. A node is unmounted only when a
+committed back operation pops it, a forward operation is cancelled, or the
+current entry is successfully replaced, or the whole scene is destroyed.
+Because the same DOM survives parking, nested scroll positions and
+component-local state survive without `<KeepAlive>`.

+# Vue Router guard/history experiment
+
+This small app compares the browser's current URL and history position with
+Vue Router's `currentRoute` while a real `beforeResolve` guard is pending.
+
+## Run it
+
+From the repository root:
+
+```sh
+npm --prefix experiments/router-guard-history run dev
+```
+
+Open the URL printed by Vite.
+
+## Suggested tests
+
+### Forward navigation
+
+1. Enable **Pause the next `beforeResolve`**.
+2. Click **Push Alpha**.
+3. While paused, compare **Browser URL** with **router.currentRoute**.
+4. Allow or reject the navigation.
+
+For `router.push()`, both values remain on the outgoing route until the guard
+allows confirmation.
+
+### Back navigation
+
+1. Push **Alpha**, then push **Beta**.
+2. Enable **Pause the next `beforeResolve`**.
+3. Click **Router Back**.
+4. While paused, compare **Browser URL** with **router.currentRoute**.
+5. Reject the navigation and watch the browser restore its previous history
+   entry, or repeat the test and allow it.
+
+The event timeline separately records the raw browser `popstate`, Vue Router
+guards, the URL, `currentRoute`, and the navigation result.

+# WebKit nested composite-transform frame pacing reproduction
+
+This is a dependency-free reproduction for an iOS WebKit frame-pacing issue involving two nested animation clocks:
+
+- A route-sized parent surface whose `translate3d()` progress is updated by `requestAnimationFrame`.
+- A child with an infinite CSS `rotate()` animation, drawn as a rounded border spinner.
+
+On the originating device, spinner durations within part of the `0.5s`–`1.1s` range produced regular 33–34 ms rAF gaps, while durations outside that band were smooth. The workload per frame is effectively unchanged, making the duration-dependent behavior unexpected.
+
+## Run
+
+Open `index.html` directly. The reproduction is a single, self-contained HTML file and works from a `file://` URL without a server.
+
+To test it through a local HTTP server instead, run this from the repository root:
+
+```sh
+npx vite external/bugs/composite-transform
+```
+
+This directory is independent of the Vue demo and has no build step or runtime dependencies. The CSS, test scene, controls, and measurement code are all in `index.html`, so that file can be attached directly to a browser bug report.
+
+## Protocol
+
+1. Do not scroll or touch the page while a sample is running.
+2. Run **Sweep 0.5–1.1 s** with **rAF-driven** selected and **Spinner enabled** checked.
+3. Repeat with **Static translate3d parent**.
+4. Repeat with **No parent transform**.
+5. Clear **Spinner enabled** and run the sweep as a control.
+
+Each duration runs for 1.8 seconds. In the rAF-parent case, the incoming route moves for 700 ms and then remains stationary for the rest of the measurement.
+
+## Expected
+
+Changing only `animation-duration` should alter angular velocity, not cause a stable 60 Hz page to begin missing display deadlines. The rAF stream should remain close to 16.7 ms throughout the sweep on a 60 Hz device.
+
+## Actual observation in the source application
+
+The problematic sample showed:
+
+- A 16 ms baseline.
+- Repeated 33–34 ms gaps during the route transition.
+- The same gaps continuing while the parent was stationary and the spinner remained visible.
+- Normal pacing after the spinner was removed from the DOM.
+- No route-loading delay, JavaScript long task, or layout shift correlated with the gaps.
+
+The reproduction intentionally contains no Vue, Vue Router, Suspense, application store, network request, or service-worker caching logic in its measured path.

+# Core v2 API reference
+
+`@native-vue-router/core-v2` is a routeless Vue scene compositor. A mounted
+component can create another component, animate both through a local operation
+frame, and retain either side when the operation resolves.
+
+This document describes the experimental `0.1.0-experimental.0` API.

+
+## Gesture start recognition
+
+The builder separates where a gesture begins from the direction it moves:
+
+```ts
+const edgeBack = gesture.from
+  .left("clamp(24px, 7vw, 48px)")
+  .to.right()
+  .navigate((context) => (context.canGoBack ? back() : null))
+  .animate(slideRight);
+```
+
+Edges are measured from the **gesture host element**, not unconditionally from
+the browser viewport. Supported start rules are:
+
+```ts
+gesture.from.left(distance);
+gesture.from.right(distance);
+gesture.from.top(distance);
+gesture.from.bottom(distance);
+gesture.from.anywhere();
+gesture.from.when(predicate);
+```
+
+`distance` accepts a number in CSS pixels or a CSS length string, including
+percentages, `calc()`, and `clamp()`. It is resolved against the current host
+size at pointer-down.
+
+`.from` is optional. A chain beginning at `.to` admits pointer-down anywhere:
+
+```ts
+gesture.to.right();
+```
+
+This is semantically equivalent to:
+
+```ts
+gesture.from.anywhere().to.right();
+```
+
+It does not capture on the first positive pixel. The recognizer waits until
+directed movement crosses the intent threshold and dominates the cross-axis.
+
+Custom shapes, safe-area rules, and exclusion zones belong in `.from.when()`:
+
+```ts
+const dropDialog = gesture.from
+  .when(({ point, bounds, event }) => {
+    const rail = Math.max(36, bounds.width * 0.08);
+    const outsideExcludedBand =
+      event.clientY < bounds.top + bounds.height * 0.35 ||
+      event.clientY > bounds.top + bounds.height * 0.65;
+    return point.localX <= rail && outsideExcludedBand;
+  })
+  .to.down()
+  .navigate(() => above(originView(DialogView)))
+  .animate(dropAnimation);
+```
+
+Interactive form controls are ignored automatically. Add
+`data-origin-gesture="ignore"` to any other element or ancestor that should not
+begin a gesture.
+
+## Minimum setup
+
+Import the required compositor stylesheet once:
+
+```ts
+import "@native-vue-router/core-v2/style.css";
+```
+
+Create a scene:
+
+```ts
+import { createOriginScene, originView } from "@native-vue-router/core-v2";
+import HomeView from "./HomeView.vue";
+
+export const scene = createOriginScene({
+  initial: originView(HomeView, undefined, {
+    key: "home",
+    name: "Home",
+  }),
+});
+```
+
+Render it:
+
+```vue
+<script setup lang="ts">
+import { OriginScene } from "@native-vue-router/core-v2";
+import { scene } from "./scene";
+</script>
+
+<template>
+  <OriginScene :scene="scene" />
+</template>
+```
+
+`OriginScene` must have a non-zero width and height through its parent layout.
+
+## Components
+
+### `OriginScene`
+
+Renders every currently mounted scene node as a stable, absolutely positioned
+sibling.
+
+| Prop    | Type          | Required | Description                            |
+| ------- | ------------- | -------- | -------------------------------------- |
+| `scene` | `OriginScene` | yes      | Scene created by `createOriginScene()` |
+
+The component provides node ownership to descendants, registers host elements
+for measurement, and applies the scene's composited styles. Application views
+must be rendered through this component before calling `useOrigin()` or
+`useOriginGesture()`.
+
+### `OriginGesture`
+
+Convenience component that renders one HTML element and binds one gesture
+recognizer to it.
+
+| Prop      | Type                      | Default | Description                        |
+| --------- | ------------------------- | ------- | ---------------------------------- |
+| `as`      | `string`                  | `"div"` | HTML tag used for the gesture host |
+| `gesture` | `OriginGestureDefinition` | —       | Preferred builder definition       |
+
+Attributes, classes, and listeners not consumed as props are forwarded to the
+rendered host.
+
+```vue
+<OriginGesture as="main" class="profile" :gesture="openDetailsGesture">
+  ...
+</OriginGesture>
+```
+
+For compatibility, the component also accepts the legacy mutually exclusive
+set of `direction`, `edge`, `threshold`, and `action` props.
+
+Use `useOriginGesture()` instead when an extra wrapper is undesirable.
+
+### `OriginGestureSurface`
+
+Policy-neutral host for multiple completed builder definitions:
+
+```vue
+<script setup lang="ts">
+const gestures = [forwardGesture, backGesture] as const;
+</script>
+
+<template>
+  <OriginGestureSurface as="main" :gestures="gestures">
+    ...
+  </OriginGestureSurface>
+</template>
+```
+
+| Prop       | Type                                 | Default  | Description                    |
+| ---------- | ------------------------------------ | -------- | ------------------------------ |
+| `as`       | `string`                             | `"div"`  | Shared native gesture host     |
+| `gestures` | `readonly OriginGestureDefinition[]` | required | Fully defined page-owned rules |
+
+The component adds no recognition or navigation policy. It installs each
+definition with `useOriginGesture()`, forwards every pointer event to every
+binding, and derives the least-permissive shared `touch-action`:
+
+- horizontal only: `pan-y`;
+- vertical only: `pan-x`;
+- both axes: `none`.
+
+Definitions should be immutable and stable for the lifetime of the rendered
+surface. The owning page remains the visible declaration point for every
+`.from`, `.to`, `.complete`, `.navigate`, and `.animate` choice.
+
+## Nested scenes
+
+`OriginScene` is a reusable compositor, not an application-only singleton. A
+component may render another scene inside its own layout:
+
+```vue
+<section class="carousel">
+  <OriginScene :scene="carouselScene" />
+</section>
+```
+
+The child scene gets independent mounted nodes, retained history, measurements,
+operations, and clipping. `useOrigin()` and `useOriginGesture()` resolve the
+nearest scene-node provider, so declarations inside a carousel slide operate
+on carousel components rather than the outer page.
+
+Parent/child gesture arbitration is currently pointer-down based. An eligible
+child recognizer stops propagation immediately. If its later `.navigate()`
+factory returns `null`, that same pointer sequence is not offered to the
+parent. Cooperative nested components should reserve a start region with
+`.from.when()` or `.from.left()` that allows the parent handler to receive
+pointer-down.
+
+The nested-scenes demo contains both this cooperative policy and an intentional
+greedy-child conflict. A future gesture arena could delay ownership until
+direction and navigation availability are known.
+
+## Scene and view functions
+
+### `originView(component, props?, options?)`
+
+Creates a lightweight recipe for mounting a Vue component.
+
+```ts
+const profile = originView(
+  ProfileView,
+  { userId: "42" },
+  { key: "profile-42", name: "Profile" },
+);
+```
+
+The recipe is not itself a mounted instance. A forward action creates an
+instance from it, then retains that exact instance while its entry remains in
+history. Back does not call the recipe again. Component definitions are marked
+raw so Vue does not proxy them inside reactive scene structures.
+
+`OriginViewOptions`:
+
+| Field  | Type     | Description                                   |
+| ------ | -------- | --------------------------------------------- |
+| `key`  | `string` | Recipe identity and generated node-key prefix |
+| `name` | `string` | Human-readable diagnostic label               |
+
+When no key is supplied, one is generated from the component/name and a
+sequence number.
+
+### `createOriginScene(options)`
+
+Creates one independent scene graph, history context, and compositor.
+
+```ts
+const scene = createOriginScene({
+  initial: originView(HomeView),
+});
+```
+
+`options.initial` accepts one `OriginView` or an array of independent root
+views. Scenes do not share nodes, history, operation IDs, or measurements.
+
+## Actions and history
+
+### `forward(target, choreography?, options?)`
+
+With choreography, creates a complete retained-history push action:
+
+```ts
+const openProfile = () =>
+  forward(originView(ProfileView, { userId: "42" }), slideLeft);
+```
+
+Without choreography, it creates an `OriginNavigationIntent` for a gesture
+builder:
+
+```ts
+.navigate(() => forward(originView(ProfileView, { userId: "42" })))
+```
+
+When forward commits, the origin remains mounted but becomes parked. Its DOM,
+component-local state, and nested scroll positions remain intact.
+
+`OriginNavigationActionOptions.placement` defaults to `"above"`.
+
+### `back(choreography?, options?)`
+
+Creates a retained-history pop action:
+
+```ts
+const goBack = (context: OriginContext) =>
+  context.canGoBack ? back(slideRight) : null;
+```
+
+Back has no target recipe. When it begins, the scene resolves the origin's
+`previousNodeKey` and reveals that exact mounted instance. A committed back
+unmounts only the current entry. A cancelled back hides the previous entry
+again and leaves the current entry active.
+
+`back()` without choreography returns an animation-free navigation intent for
+`.navigate()`. `back(slideRight)` returns a complete programmatic action.
+
+`OriginNavigationActionOptions.placement` defaults to `"under"`.
+
+### `replace(target, choreography?, options?)`
+
+Creates a new target while removing the current history entry:
+
+```ts
+const confirmOrder = () =>
+  replace(
+    originView(OrderConfirmationView, { orderId: "NVO-2048" }),
+    slideLeft,
+  );
+```
+
+The target inherits the origin's `previousNodeKey`, so a later back skips the
+replaced entry. The origin remains mounted while the operation is interactive
+or settling and is unmounted only after commit. Cancelling removes the proposed
+target and restores the origin without changing history.
+
+Without choreography, `replace(target)` creates an intent suitable for a
+gesture builder:
+
+```ts
+.navigate(() => replace(originView(OrderConfirmationView)))
+.animate(slideLeft)
+```
+
+`OriginNavigationActionOptions.placement` defaults to `"above"`.
+
+### `originAction(target, choreography, options?)`
+
+Constructs a complete low-level `OriginAction`. Prefer `forward()`, `replace()`,
+and `back()` when expressing retained navigation.
+
+```ts
+const action = originAction(profile, slideLeft, {
+  placement: "above",
+  history: "push",
+});
+```
+
+`OriginActionOptions`:
+
+| Field       | Type                 | Default   | Description                  |
+| ----------- | -------------------- | --------- | ---------------------------- |
+| `placement` | `"above" \| "under"` | `"above"` | Target stacking relationship |
+| `history`   | `OriginHistoryMode`  | `"push"`  | Target history mutation      |
+
+### `above(target, choreography?, options?)`
+
+Shorthand for `originAction()` with `placement: "above"`.
+
+```ts
+const openProfile = () => above(originView(ProfileView), slideLeft);
+```
+
+Placement controls stacking only. It does not imply a movement direction.
+Omitting choreography returns a navigation intent for a gesture builder.
+
+### `under(target, choreography?, options?)`
+
+Shorthand for `originAction()` with `placement: "under"`.
+
+```ts
+const goBack = (context: OriginContext) =>
+  context.previous ? back(slideRight) : null;
+```
+
+`under()` does not automatically mean history back. It remains available for
+custom stacking actions; `back()` is the clearer retained-history primitive.
+Omitting choreography returns a navigation intent for a gesture builder.
+
+### History modes
+
+History is a linked chain of mounted scene nodes.
+
+| Mode        | Commit behavior                                                |
+| ----------- | -------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `"push"`    | Park and retain the origin; activate the new target            |
+| `"replace"` | Create a new target, inherit prior history, unmount the origin |
+| `"back"`    | Reuse the retained previous target; pop and unmount the origin |
+
+Parked entries are `inert`, `aria-hidden`, invisible, and excluded from pointer
+input. They remain mounted until back pops them or the scene is destroyed.
+
+## Gestures
+
+### `gesture`
+
+Immutable fluent builder for component-owned gesture policy:
+
+```ts
+const swipeBack = gesture.from
+  .left(32)
+  .to.right({ threshold: 10 })
+  .complete(({ progress, velocity }) => progress >= 0.4 || velocity >= 0.9)
+  .navigate((context) => (context.canGoBack ? back() : null))
+  .animate(slideRight);
+```
+
+The stages have distinct responsibilities:
+
+| Stage                  | Responsibility                                             |
+| ---------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `.from.*`              | Optional pointer-down eligibility                          |
+| `.to.*`                | Required movement direction and intent-recognition options |
+| `.complete(predicate)` | Optional release commit/cancel decision                    |
+| `.navigate(factory)`   | Required target and retained-history intent                |
+| `.animate(routine)`    | Required source/target/frame choreography                  |
+
+The builder is persistent and immutable. Reusing an earlier stage cannot
+change a definition already produced from it.
+
+`.to.left()`, `.to.right()`, `.to.up()`, and `.to.down()` accept optional
+`OriginGestureDirectionOptions`:
+
+| Field           | Default | Description                                       |
+| --------------- | ------- | ------------------------------------------------- |
+| `threshold`     | `8`     | Directed CSS pixels required before capture       |
+| `axisDominance` | `1.15`  | Directed/cross-axis ratio required before capture |
+
+If `.complete()` is omitted, the choreography's `commitThreshold` and
+`commitVelocity` decide release normally.
+
+The completion context contains the origin, direction, normalized progress and
+velocity, directed pixel distance, cross-axis distance, duration, pointer-up
+event, host, bounds, and start/current points. Completion predicates are
+synchronous because they select operation intent at release.
+
+### `useOriginGesture(definition)`
+
+Creates one primary-pointer, single-axis recognizer owned by the component that
+calls it.
+
+```ts
+const open = useOriginGesture(
+  gesture.to
+    .left({ threshold: 10 })
+    .navigate(() => forward(originView(DetailsView)))
+    .animate(slideLeft),
+);
+```
+
+The return value contains:
+
+```ts
+interface OriginGestureBinding {
+  readonly style: Readonly<CSSProperties>;
+  readonly onPointerdown: (event: PointerEvent) => void;
+  readonly onPointermove: (event: PointerEvent) => void;
+  readonly onPointerup: (event: PointerEvent) => void;
+  readonly onPointercancel: () => void;
+}
+```
+
+Apply all handlers to the same element. The returned style sets dimensions and
+`touch-action` so native scrolling remains available on the cross-axis.
+
+Recognition requires:
+
+1. A primary, left-button pointer satisfies the optional start policy.
+2. The target is not an ignored interactive element.
+3. Directed movement reaches `threshold`.
+4. Directed movement exceeds cross-axis movement by `axisDominance`.
+5. The navigation factory returns an intent.
+
+Progress is directed distance divided by host width or height. Release velocity
+is normalized by the same dimension.
+
+An asynchronous navigation factory is supported. If it resolves after the
+pointer was released or cancelled, the stale result is discarded.
+
+The legacy `OriginGestureOptions` object remains accepted. Its `edge` is a
+number inferred from the side opposite `direction`, matching the previous API.
+
+## Choreographies and effects
+
+### `defineOriginChoreography(choreography)`
+
+Type-safe identity helper for declaring custom visual routines.
+
+```ts
+const scaleIn = defineOriginChoreography({
+  name: "scale-in",
+  commitThreshold: 0.4,
+  commitVelocity: 0.8,
+  effects: ({ progress, viewport }) => ({
+    source: {
+      transform: `scale(${1 - progress * 0.08})`,
+      opacity: 1 - progress * 0.3,
+    },
+    target: {
+      transform: `translateY(${(1 - progress) * viewport.height}px)`,
+    },
+  }),
+});
+```
+
+The function returns the same object. Its value is type checking and a clear
+construction point.
+
+Set `persistAtRest: true` when progress `1` should remain as a connected visual
+relationship after a committed push:
+
+```ts
+const openPartialDrawer = defineOriginChoreography({
+  name: "partial-drawer-open",
+  persistAtRest: true,
+  effects: ({ progress }) => ({
+    source: {
+      transform: `translateX(${progress * 66.6667}%)`,
+    },
+    target: {
+      transform: `translateX(${(progress - 1) * 66.6667}%)`,
+    },
+  }),
+});
+```
+
+This leaves the retained source mounted, visible, and inert instead of parking
+it. The target remains the active history entry. Beginning back suspends the
+resting relationship so a reciprocal close choreography can take over;
+cancelling back restores it exactly.
+
+Connected resting effects are supported only by retained-history push actions.
+They are designed for partial drawers, inspectors, and other presentations
+where both mounted views remain visible after commit. They do not appear in
+`scene.operations`, which reports live interactive/settling edges only.
+
+`effects()` may return:
+
+| Effect   | Applied to                                                 |
+| -------- | ---------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `frame`  | Source, target, and descendants on both sides of this edge |
+| `source` | Component that originated this operation                   |
+| `target` | Component created by this operation and its descendants    |
+
+Transforms are concatenated from inherited frames to local frames. Opacity is
+multiplied. Properties inside `style` use local-last precedence, except
+`transform` and numeric `opacity`, which are also composed.
+
+Choreography callbacks should be deterministic and free of side effects. They
+can run repeatedly during rendering and animation.
+
+### Commit thresholds
+
+When `finish()` does not explicitly override the decision, a target commits
+when either:
+
+- `progress >= commitThreshold`, default `0.36`; or
+- `progress >= 0.06` and `velocity >= commitVelocity`, default `0.9`.
+
+The operation's intent becomes final before its spring settles.
+
+### Included presets
+
+| Export       | Behavior                                                      |
+| ------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `slideLeft`  | Target enters from the right above a slightly receding source |
+| `slideRight` | Source exits right and reveals a target underneath            |
+| `fade`       | Source fades out as target fades in                           |
+
+These are ordinary `OriginChoreography` objects and can be replaced entirely.
+
+### `normalizedEffect(effect, fallbackLayer?)`
+
+Internal compositor helper exposed for custom diagnostics or compositors. It
+returns a defined effect and adds `fallbackLayer` to the effect's own layer.
+Applications normally return plain effects and let the scene normalize them.
+
+## Node-scoped controls
+
+### `useOrigin()`
+
+Returns controls scoped to the scene node containing the calling component.
+
+```ts
+const origin = useOrigin();
+
+await origin.perform(forward(originView(SettingsView), fade));
+```
+
+Return value:
+
+| Field             | Description                                         |
+| ----------------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
+| `nodeKey`         | Unique key of this mounted node                     |
+| `scene`           | Containing `OriginScene`                            |
+| `context`         | Reactive node-local `OriginContext`                 |
+| `view`            | Reactive shorthand for the current recipe           |
+| `previous`        | Recipe belonging to the retained previous instance  |
+| `canGoBack`       | Whether a retained previous instance exists         |
+| `begin(action)`   | Create a target and return manual operation control |
+| `perform(action)` | Create and programmatically commit a target         |
+
+The composable throws when called outside a view mounted by `OriginScene`.
+There is no global `activeView`; the injected node containing the event is the
+origin.
+
+## Scene diagnostics and manual operations
+
+### `OriginScene` fields
+
+| Field        | Type                                      | Description                           |
+| ------------ | ----------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------- |
+| `nodes`      | `ComputedRef<readonly OriginSceneNode[]>` | Currently mounted Vue component nodes |
+| `operations` | `ComputedRef<readonly OriginOperation[]>` | Live operation edges                  |
+| `roots`      | `ShallowRef<readonly string[]>`           | Visible operation-graph roots         |
+
+These fields are suitable for inspectors and diagnostics. Do not mutate their
+contents.
+
+### `scene.contextFor(nodeKey)`
+
+Returns the `OriginContext` for a mounted node. Throws if the key no longer
+exists.
+
+### `scene.begin(originKey, action)`
+
+For forward or replace, mounts a new target and waits one Vue tick for
+measurement. For back, reveals and measures the retained previous node. It
+then returns an `OriginOperationHandle`.
+
+```ts
+const handle = await scene.begin(nodeKey, action);
+handle.update(0.25, 0.4);
+const committed = await handle.finish();
+```
+
+Only one outgoing operation may exist for a given origin. Its created target
+can immediately begin its own outgoing operation, enabling X → Y → Z chains.
+
+### `OriginOperationHandle`
+
+| Member                        | Description                                         |

+| `targetKey`                   | Created or retained target node key                 |
+| `update(progress, velocity?)` | Update normalized interactive state                 |
+| `finish(options?)`            | Decide, settle, and return whether target committed |
+| `cancel(options?)`            | Force cancellation and remove the target branch     |
+
+`OriginFinishOptions`:
+
+| Field     | Default            | Description                  |
+| --------- | ------------------ | ---------------------------- |
+| `commit`  | threshold decision | Force commit or cancellation |
+| `animate` | `true`             | Run the settling spring      |
+
+### `scene.perform(originKey, action)`
+
+Equivalent to beginning an operation and immediately finishing it with
+`commit: true`. The target still uses the settling spring unless reduced motion
+is active.
+
+### Renderer integration methods
+
+`registerElement()`, `registerContainer()`, `styleForNode()`, and
+`isNodeInteractive()` are public at the TypeScript boundary because the Vue
+renderer components consume them. They are internal integration APIs and may
+change during the experimental series.
+
+## Type reference
+
+### `OriginView<Props>`
+
+A component recipe containing `component`, optional `props`, optional `key`,
+and optional diagnostic `name`.
+
+### `OriginAction`
+
+A choreography, placement, history mode, and—except for back—target recipe.
+
+### `OriginNavigationIntent`
+
+An animation-free target, placement, and history mutation returned by
+`forward()`, `replace()`, `back()`, `above()`, or `under()` when choreography
+is omitted. Gesture `.animate()` combines it with choreography to create the
+internal action.
+
+### Gesture definition types
+
+- `OriginGestureDefinition`: immutable executable result passed to
+  `useOriginGesture()` or the `OriginGesture` component.
+- `OriginGestureStart`: anywhere, edge, or predicate start policy.
+- `OriginGestureDistance`: numeric CSS pixels or a CSS length string.
+- `OriginGestureStartContext`: pointer-down event, origin, host, bounds, and
+  local/client point.
+- `OriginGestureCompletionContext`: release metrics and origin/DOM context.
+- `OriginGestureDirectionOptions`: `threshold` and `axisDominance`.
+- `OriginGestureBinding`: host style and four pointer handlers.
+- `OriginGestureSurfaceProps`: shared host tag and completed definition list.
+- `MaybeOriginNavigationIntent`: synchronous or asynchronous nullable
+  navigation-factory result.
+
+### `OriginContext`
+
+Node-local action context:
+
+- `nodeKey`: mounted origin identity.
+- `view`: origin recipe.
+- `canGoBack`: whether a retained previous instance exists.
+- `previous`: recipe belonging to the mounted previous entry.
+- `history`: recipes belonging to all retained previous entries.
+
+### `MaybeOriginAction`
+
+```ts
+OriginAction | null | undefined | Promise<OriginAction | null | undefined>;
+```
+
+### `OriginEffect`
+
+| Field       | Description                                     |
+| ----------- | ----------------------------------------------- |
+| `transform` | Composable CSS transform contribution           |
+| `opacity`   | Multiplicative opacity contribution             |
+| `layer`     | Relative stacking contribution                  |
+| `style`     | Other CSS properties with local-last precedence |
+
+`above()` adds a default target layer of `+1`; `under()` adds `-1`.
+
+### `OriginChoreographyContext`
+
+| Field        | Description                                            |
+| ------------ | ------------------------------------------------------ |
+| `progress`   | Normalized `0..1` progress                             |
+| `velocity`   | Normalized progress units per second                   |
+| `phase`      | `preparing`, `interactive`, `settling`, or `finished`  |
+| `intent`     | `undecided`, `commit`, or `cancel`                     |
+| `originRect` | Origin bounds captured before target mounting          |
+| `targetRect` | Target bounds measured after mounting                  |
+| `viewport`   | Scene-container bounds, with browser viewport fallback |
+
+Rect values are viewport CSS pixels.
+
+### Diagnostic types
+
+- `OriginSceneNode`: mounted identity, retained previous key, state, recipe,
+  history, and incoming edge.
+- `OriginSceneNodeState`: `active`, `transitioning`, `exposed`, or `parked`.
+- `OriginOperation`: read-only live edge state.
+- `OriginOperationPhase`: operation lifecycle phase.
+- `OriginOperationIntent`: selected operation outcome.
+- `OriginRect`: top, left, width, and height.
+
+### Internal types
+
+`OriginNodeScope` and `MutableOriginOperation` are renderer/runtime
+implementation types. They are exported by the current barrel but marked
+`@internal` and should not be application dependencies.
+
+## Errors and constraints
+
+- `useOrigin()` and `useOriginGesture()` must run inside a component mounted by
+  `OriginScene`.
+- An origin can own only one outgoing operation at a time.
+- Parked or exposed retained entries are inert and cannot originate operations.
+  The active connected target owns interactions until back reveals its source.
+- A target can originate its own operation as soon as its incoming operation's
+  intent becomes commit.
+- The included recognizer follows one primary pointer and one axis.
+- Builder edges accept CSS lengths; arbitrary start policy belongs in
+  `.from.when()`.
+- Every pushed history entry retains its Vue instance and DOM until a committed
+  back operation pops it. There is no eviction policy yet.
+- Parked instances remain mounted, so their ordinary Vue effects and timers
+  continue running.
+- A choreography creates one target. Chaining supports any number of
+  simultaneously mounted targets.
+- Reduced-motion preference resolves settling immediately.

+# Core v2: routeless origins
+
+`@native-vue-router/core-v2` is an experimental, Vue-only scene compositor. It
+does not install Vue Router, resolve URLs, select a globally active route, or
+render through `RouterView`.
+
+The complete function, component, option, type, gesture-edge, and choreography
+reference is in [API.md](./API.md).
+
+The primitive is:
+
+> A mounted component can originate a routine that creates another component,
+> moves both components relative to the origin's coordinate frame, and retains
+> the previous instance until a committed back operation pops the newer entry.
+
+## Run the experiment
+
+From the workspace root:
+
+```sh
+npm run dev:v2
+```
+
+Open the printed URL to explore nine physical labs:
+
+- a four-view chain that can keep four nodes and three edges live at once;
+- one view with horizontal, vertical, and edge-only declarations;
+- programmatic gallery navigation followed by gesture-owned traversal;
+- a vertically presented media player with local interactive state;
+- a chat that intentionally declares no back gesture;
+- a predicate-gated downward gesture that drops a left-edge dialog;
+- three nested scenes demonstrating cooperative carousels, vertical decks, and
+  an intentional parent/child gesture conflict; and
+- a checkout flow that replaces Payment Details with Confirmation and proves
+  that back returns directly to the retained Hub instance; and
+- a connected two-thirds drawer that keeps the translated source page visible
+  in the exposed final third.
+
+The expandable inspector reports mounted Vue instances, active operation
+edges, animation progress, and recent lifecycle events. In the chain lab,
+swipe rapidly through X → Y → Z → Ω to see all four components mounted while
+their independent frames are still moving.
+
+An installable, offline-capable PWA build of the same experiment is hosted at
+<https://v2.demo.native-router.harvmaster.com/>.
+
+## Basic usage
+
+Create a scene with a component recipe:
+
+```ts
+import { createOriginScene, originView } from "@native-vue-router/core-v2";
+import "@native-vue-router/core-v2/style.css";
+import HomeView from "./HomeView.vue";
+
+export const scene = createOriginScene({
+  initial: originView(HomeView, { accountId: "42" }, { key: "home" }),
+});
+```
+
+Render it:
+
+```vue
+<script setup lang="ts">
+import { OriginScene } from "@native-vue-router/core-v2";
+import { scene } from "./scene";
+</script>
+
+<template>
+  <OriginScene :scene="scene" />
+</template>
+```
+
+Declare an interaction inside the component that should originate it:
+
+```vue
+<script setup lang="ts">
+import {
+  OriginGesture,
+  forward,
+  gesture,
+  originView,
+  slideLeft,
+} from "@native-vue-router/core-v2";
+import ProfileView from "./ProfileView.vue";
+
+const openProfile = gesture.to
+  .left()
+  .navigate(() =>
+    forward(originView(ProfileView, { userId: "7" }, { key: "profile-7" })),
+  )
+  .animate(slideLeft);
+</script>
+
+<template>
+  <OriginGesture :gesture="openProfile">
+    <main>Swipe this component left</main>
+  </OriginGesture>
+</template>
+```
+
+Starting directly at `.to.left()` means pointer-down may occur anywhere on the
+host. Add `.from.left("clamp(24px, 8%, 64px)")` before `.to.right()` for a
+conventional proportional back edge, or `.from.when(context => ...)` for
+arbitrary start policy. `.complete()` can override the choreography's release
+thresholds.
+
+There is no global navigation declaration. If this component should not
+support that gesture, it simply does not render `OriginGesture`.
+
+For an existing element where an additional wrapper is undesirable, use
+`useOriginGesture()` and attach its four pointer handlers directly.
+
+For several gestures on one page surface, keep the definitions in the page and
+pass them to the policy-neutral host:
+
+```vue
+<script setup lang="ts">
+import { OriginGestureSurface } from "@native-vue-router/core-v2";
+
+const gestures = [forwardGesture, backGesture] as const;
+</script>
+
+<template>
+  <OriginGestureSurface as="main" :gestures="gestures">
+    ...
+  </OriginGestureSurface>
+</template>
+```
+
+## Going backward
+
+Every pushed history entry remains mounted. Back resolves the already-mounted
+previous node and pops only the current entry after the operation commits:
+
+```ts
+import {
+  back,
+  gesture,
+  slideRight,
+  useOriginGesture,
+} from "@native-vue-router/core-v2";
+
+const goBack = useOriginGesture(
+  gesture.from
+    .left("max(24px, 6%)")
+    .to.right()
+    .navigate((context) => (context.canGoBack ? back() : null))
+    .animate(slideRight),
+);
+```
+
+Parked entries are visually hidden, inert, and removed from pointer and
+accessibility interaction. Their Vue instances and DOM remain mounted, so
+component-local state and nested element scroll positions are preserved
+naturally. A cancelled back re-parks the previous target; a committed back
+unmounts the entry being left.
+
+The application chooses whether this is exposed as a left-edge gesture,
+toolbar button, keyboard shortcut, Android hardware-back action, or not exposed
+at all.
+
+## Replacing the current entry
+
+Use `replace()` for completed one-way flows such as Payment Details →
+Confirmation:
+
+```ts
+import {
+  originView,
+  replace,
+  slideLeft,
+  useOrigin,
+} from "@native-vue-router/core-v2";
+import OrderConfirmationView from "./OrderConfirmationView.vue";
+
+const origin = useOrigin();
+
+function confirmOrder() {
+  return origin.perform(
+    replace(
+      originView(OrderConfirmationView, { orderId: "NVO-2048" }),
+      slideLeft,
+    ),
+  );
+}
+```
+
+The replacement inherits the current entry's mounted predecessor. It does not
+retain the entry being replaced, so back from Confirmation skips Payment
+Details. The mutation is atomic: a cancelled interactive replacement removes
+the proposed Confirmation and restores Payment Details unchanged.
+
+Inside a gesture builder, omit choreography from the intent:
+
+```ts
+gesture.to
+  .left()
+  .navigate(() => replace(originView(OrderConfirmationView)))
+  .animate(slideLeft);
+```
+
+## Custom choreography
+
+A choreography returns independent effects for its source, target, and their
+shared frame:
+
+```ts
+import { defineOriginChoreography } from "@native-vue-router/core-v2";
+
+export const zoomFromCard = defineOriginChoreography({
+  name: "zoom-from-card",
+  commitThreshold: 0.42,
+  effects: ({ progress, originRect, viewport }) => ({
+    source: {
+      transform: `scale(${1 - progress * 0.08})`,
+      opacity: 1 - progress * 0.4,
+    },
+    target: {
+      transform: `translateY(${(1 - progress) * viewport.height}px)`,
+      style: {
+        borderRadius: `${(1 - progress) * 24}px`,
+      },
+    },
+  }),
+});
+```
+
+`originRect`, `targetRect`, and the scene viewport are measured after the
+target mounts. The gesture may update progress interactively or a normal click
+can call `useOrigin().perform(action)`.
+
+Transforms are concatenated from the oldest origin frame to the newest local
+effect. Opacity is multiplied. Other properties in `style` use local-last
+precedence. Consequently, if X→Y and Y→Z overlap:
+
+```text
+Y transform = (X→Y target) × (Y→Z source)
+Z transform = (X→Y target) × (Y→Z target)
+```
+
+For partial presentations that must keep both views visible after commit, set
+`persistAtRest: true` on the opening choreography:
+
+```ts
+const openDrawer = defineOriginChoreography({
+  persistAtRest: true,
+  effects: ({ progress }) => ({
+    source: { transform: `translateX(${progress * 66.6667}%)` },
+    target: { transform: `translateX(${(progress - 1) * 66.6667}%)` },
+  }),
+});
+```
+
+The retained source becomes visible-but-inert rather than parked. A reciprocal
+back choreography closes the target; a cancelled close restores the connected
+resting effects and both original Vue instances.
+
+## Why scene nodes are flat
+
+The operation graph is not represented as Vue component ancestry. Every
+component has one stable, keyed host directly under `OriginScene`.
+
+If Y were physically moved from an X→Y wrapper to the scene root when an edge
+collapsed, Vue would unmount and recreate Y. Instead, v2 rewrites graph edges
+and recalculates Y's effect layers while every retained VNode stays in the same
+flat host.
+
+“Y is Z's origin” is a coordinate and retained-history relationship, not Vue
+component ancestry.
+
+## Current experimental boundaries
+
+- One operation creates one target. Chaining operations already permits any
+  number of simultaneous scene nodes; multi-target routines are not yet
+  exposed as a public builder.
+- A node can originate one outgoing operation at a time. Its created target
+  may immediately originate the next operation.
+- The included pointer recognizer handles one primary pointer and one axis.
+  Choreographies and scene operations are independent of it.
+- Multiple recognizers can share a host and arbitrate by start policy and
+  directional intent. A dedicated multi-pointer gesture arena is not exposed.
+- Nested `OriginScene` components have independent history and measurements.
+  Child recognizers currently claim propagation at pointer-down, so yielding a
+  region to a parent requires an explicit `.from` policy.
+- Every pushed history entry remains mounted until back pops it. There is not
+  yet an eviction policy, so applications should deliberately reset long-lived
+  navigation contexts when that API is introduced.
+- Parked instances remain mounted and ordinary Vue timers/watchers continue to
+  run. Engine-specific park/resume lifecycle hooks are not exposed yet.
+- Arbitrary CSS properties can be used, but only transforms and opacity have
+  defined multi-operation composition rules at present.
+
+These boundaries are explicit so the experiment can validate the origin
+primitive before compatibility conveniences become permanent architecture.

+ * Install a component-owned pointer recognizer.
+ *
+ * Recognition is local to the element receiving these handlers. There is no
+ * application-wide gesture table and no lookup of a currently active view.
+ *
+ * Builder definitions may independently describe their pointer-down region
+ * and movement direction. Omitting `.from` recognizes pointer-down across the
+ * whole element. The legacy options object remains supported; its `edge` is
+ * inferred from the opposite side of its movement direction.
+ *
+ * Interactive controls and anything inside
+ * `[data-origin-gesture="ignore"]` are ignored automatically. The recognizer
+ * preserves native scrolling on the cross-axis through its returned style.
+ *
+ * @param definition - An immutable builder result or legacy recognizer options.
+ * @returns Pointer handlers and required host styles.
+ * @throws If called outside a component rendered by `OriginScene`.
+ *
+ * @example Builder-defined backward gesture
+ * ```ts
+ * const swipeBack = useOriginGesture(
+ *   gesture
+ *     .from.left("32px")
+ *     .to.right()
+ *     .navigate((context) => context.canGoBack ? back() : null)
+ *     .animate(slideRight),
+ * );
