2026-10-15 Antigravity run (Gemini 4 Argon) on deliver: rules-1, sourcing-1, design-1, simulation-1 and schematic-1 clips were all "one flat colour" because the AI did the pre-board steps with container scripts; nothing was on screen, so each clip recorded an idle window. Then silkscreen-2 and export-1 were truncated (moov atom missing) after Hydrogen restarts / recording drops on the test box.

Suggestions: for pre-board steps, record the dashboard/timeline or the terminal instead of the board window (or skip the clip with a note); and when a clip's recording dies (window gone, bridge restart), restart it on the step's current window instead of leaving a truncated file to be discovered at deliver.

Fixed in adom-aiflow 0.2.3. Pre-board steps film the window the step works in (KiCad's schematic editor for schematic). Otherwise they film Hydrogen with the run dashboard, then the terminal or IDE. If none is open, the clip is skipped with the reason recorded instead of filming an idle window. Any command checks the running take at most every 45 s. A dead take is stopped and pulled, a new take starts on the step's current window, and the gap is recorded. Truncated MP4s (no moov atom) are flagged when the clip stops. Dead-take detection follows the documented desktop_record_status reply and has not been exercised on a live recorder yet. Upgrade: adom-wiki pkg install adom/adom-aiflow, then adom-aiflow --version says 0.2.3.
