Generator effects (bars, checkerboard) can be dragged from the library onto the timeline, where they land as a standalone five-second clip built from the node factory; the inspector shows the generator's parameters as the clip's own chain. Transitions are no longer junction-only. The render planner accepts a transition with at least one wired neighbor and blends the missing side against transparent black, so head transitions fade in from black and tail transitions fade out to black. add_transition_at_edge creates those single-sided blocks (wired to just the IN or OUT block), the default-transition command covers both ends of a lone clip, and an effect drag dropped near a clip edge routes to the nearest seam or edge within a one-second window.

Roadmap
| Version | Theme | Core Deliverables | Boundary Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0.3 | Plugin Architecture Milestone | Production-ready OpenFX host support | Not about quantity of plugins, but "any OFX plugin loads without crashing" |
| 0.4 | Color, Audio & Performance | .cube/.3dl support, scopes (waveform/vectorscope/histogram), three-way color wheels, waveform auto-sync, BWF timecode sync, audio meters (LUFS/VU), proxy media workflow, hardware-accelerated export (NVENC/VideoToolbox), batch render queue |
Combines the previous 0.4-0.6 scope into one usability milestone: color workflow, audio sync, and 4K/8K performance |
| 0.5 | Animation, Tracking & Collaboration | Bézier keyframe curve editor, basic point tracking, image stabilizer, full multicam angle switching, OpenTimelineIO, EDL/XML import/export | Combines the previous 0.7-0.8 scope into one timeline/interchange milestone |
| 0.6 | Stability Milestone | Project file format freeze (backward compatibility promise), crash recovery, autosave, memory optimization | "Feature freeze" testing period before 1.0 |
| 1.0 | Production Ready | Complete documentation, installers, known issues list, community support channels | Declared "ready for serious projects" |
