+# v0.0.5 (2026-02-13)
+
+## Features
+
+- Implement debug node with full runtime integration, wildcard (`*`) inputs, variable-height nodes and parameters, and a quick-connect shortcut.
+- Add color-coded node sockets and edges to visually indicate data types.
+- Recursively merge `localState` with the initial state to safely handle outdated settings stored in `localStorage` when the settings schema changes.
+- Clamp the Add Menu to the viewport.
+- Add application favicon.
+- Consolidate all developer settings into a single **Advanced Mode** setting.
+
+## Fixes
+
+- Fix InputNumber arrow visibility in the light theme.
+- Correct changelog formatting issues.
+
+## Chores
+
+- Add `pnpm qa` pre-commit command.
+- Run linting and type checks before build in CI.
+- Sign release commits with a PGP key.
+- General formatting, lint/type cleanup, test snapshot updates, and `.gitignore` maintenance.
+
+---

+# Nodarium - LLM Documentation
+
+## Overview
+
+Nodarium is a **WebAssembly-based visual programming language** for creating procedural 3D plants. The app features a node-based interface where users connect WASM modules to generate plant models in real-time. Currently used to develop https://nodes.max-richter.dev, a procedural modelling tool for 3D plants.
+
+## Architecture
+
+### Core Components
+
+#### 1. Node System (`app/static/nodes/`)
+
+WASM-based nodes that perform computations. All nodes must implement the NodeDefinition interface.
+
+- **Node Storage**: `app/static/nodes/max/plantarium/`
+  - `box.wasm` - Box geometry node
+  - `branch.wasm` - Branch generation
+  - `float.wasm` - Float value node
+  - `gravity.wasm` - Gravity/physics node
+  - `instance.wasm` - Instance rendering
+  - `leaf.wasm` - Leaf geometry
+  - `math.wasm` - Math operations
+  - `noise.wasm` - Noise generation
+  - `output.wasm` - Output node
+  - `random.wasm` - Random value generation
+  - `rotate.wasm` - Rotation node
+  - `shape.wasm` - Shape geometry
+  - `stem.wasm` - Stem generation
+  - `triangle.wasm` - Triangle geometry
+  - `vec3.wasm` - Vector3 node
+
+- **Node Registry**: `app/src/lib/node-registry.ts`
+  - Loads and manages WASM nodes
+  - `getNodeWasm()` - Creates WASM wrapper from bytes
+  - `getNode()` - Retrieves node definition
+
+- **Debug Node**: `app/src/lib/node-registry/debugNode.js`
+  - Special debug node with wildcard inputs
+  - Variable-height nodes and parameters
+  - Quick-connect shortcut
+
+#### 2. Graph Interface
+
+Visual node editor built with Svelte 5.
+
+- **Main Wrapper**: `app/src/lib/graph-interface/graph/Wrapper.svelte`
+  - Entry point for graph interface
+  - Manages GraphManager and GraphState
+
+- **GraphManager**: `app/src/lib/graph-interface/graph-manager.svelte.ts`
+  - Core entity managing the node graph
+  - Handles node connections and execution flow
+
+- **GraphState**: `app/src/lib/graph-interface/graph-state.svelte.ts`
+  - Tracks UI state (selection, snapping, help, active nodes)
+
+- **Graph Components**:
+  - `app/src/lib/graph-interface/graph/` - Graph rendering
+  - `app/src/lib/graph-interface/node/` - Node rendering
+  - `app/src/lib/graph-interface/edges/` - Edge rendering
+  - `app/src/lib/graph-interface/components/` - UI components (AddMenu, Socket, etc.)
+  - `app/src/lib/graph-interface/debug/` - Debug overlays
+  - `app/src/lib/graph-interface/background/` - Grid/dots backgrounds
+
+- **Helpers**:
+  - `app/src/lib/helpers/` - Utility functions
+  - `app/src/lib/helpers/createKeyMap.ts` - Keyboard shortcuts
+
+#### 3. Runtime Execution
+
+Performs graph execution via WASM nodes.
+
+- **Runtime Executors** (`app/src/lib/runtime/`):
+  - **MemoryRuntime**: Direct WASM execution in main thread
+  - **WorkerRuntime**: WebWorker-based execution for performance
+  - Both implement the RuntimeExecutor interface
+
+- **Runtime Cache**: `app/src/lib/runtime/cache.ts`
+  - Memory-based caching for graph execution
+
+- **Execution Flow**:
+  1. Graph serialized from graph interface
+  2. Runtime executes nodes in topological order
+  3. Results passed through connected edges
+  4. Final mesh output rendered
+
+#### 4. 3D Viewer (`app/src/lib/result-viewer/`)
+
+Three.js-based rendering for 3D output.
+
+- **Viewer**: `app/src/lib/result-viewer/Viewer.svelte`
+  - Renders generated 3D meshes
+  - Uses @threlte/core (Svelte-Three.js wrapper)
+
+#### 5. Application Structure (`app/src/routes/`)
+
+SvelteKit application routing.
+
+- **Main Page**: `app/src/routes/+page.svelte`
+  - Combines GraphInterface + 3D Viewer
+  - Manages runtime selection (memory vs worker)
+  - Handles settings and performance tracking
+
+- **Layout**: `app/src/routes/+layout.svelte`
+  - Application shell
+
+- **Server**: `app/src/routes/+layout.server.ts`
+  - Loads git metadata and changelog
+
+#### 6. Settings System (`app/src/lib/settings/`)
+
+Application and graph settings.
+
+- **App Settings**: `app/src/lib/settings/app-settings.svelte.ts`
+  - Debug mode, themes, node interface options
+
+- **NestedSettings**: `app/src/lib/settings/NestedSettings.svelte`
+  - Recursive settings UI component
+
+#### 7. Sidebar Panels (`app/src/lib/sidebar/`)
+
+- `app/src/lib/sidebar/Sidebar.svelte` - Main sidebar
+- `app/src/lib/sidebar/panels/` - Individual panels:
+  - `ActiveNodeSettings.svelte` - Selected node properties
+  - `BenchmarkPanel.svelte` - Performance benchmarking
+  - `Changelog.svelte` - Version history
+  - `ExportSettings.svelte` - Export options
+  - `GraphSource.svelte` - Graph JSON view
+  - `Keymap.svelte` - Keyboard shortcuts
+
+#### 8. Project Management (`app/src/lib/project-manager/`)
+
+- `app/src/lib/project-manager/project-manager.svelte` - Project save/load
+- Uses IndexedDB for persistence
+
+#### 9. Node Store (`app/src/lib/node-store/`)
+
+- `app/src/lib/node-store/NodeStore.svelte`
+- Remote node registry management
+- IndexDBCache for offline storage
+
+#### 10. Graph Templates (`app/src/lib/graph-templates/`)
+
+Pre-built graph templates for testing:
+
+- Grid, Tree, LottaFaces, LottaNodes, LottaNodesAndFaces
+
+## Key Types (`app/src/lib/types.ts`)
+
+```typescript
+interface NodeDefinition {
+  id: string;
+  name: string;
+  inputs: Socket[];
+  outputs: Socket[];
+  parameters: Parameter[];
+  execute: (inputs: any[], parameters: any[]) => any[];
+}

+  type: string; // datatype (e.g., "number", "vec3", "*")
+  defaultValue?: any;
+  optional?: boolean;
+}
+
+interface Parameter {
+  id: string;
+  name: string;
+  type: string;
+  defaultValue: any;
+  min?: number;
+  max?: number;
+  options?: string[];
+}
+
+interface Graph {
+  nodes: NodeInstance[];
+  edges: Edge[];
+}
+
+interface NodeInstance {
+  id: number;
+  nodeId: string;
+  position: { x: number; y: number };
+  parameters: Record<string, any>;
+}
+
+interface Edge {
+  id: number;
+  fromNode: number;
+  fromSocket: string;
+  toNode: number;
+  toSocket: string;
