+screengraft -- the images a designer has actually used, per role.
+
+The picker used to list whatever was newest on ~/Desktop and ~/Downloads. That
+is a guess about where files live; this is a record of what was chosen. Every
+source that reaches the session through /api/use or /api/upload is written
+here, newest first, one list per role (a photograph of a device and a
+screenshot to put on it are different populations), and the picker shows the
+ones that still exist on disk.
+
+Store: ~/.screengraft/recents.json
+  {"photo": [{"path": ..., "name": ..., "used": <epoch>}, ...], "screenshot": [...]}
+
+An uploaded file's path is its session copy, which the launch-time sweep
+removes when nothing was saved from that session -- so an upload stays recent
+only as long as its session does. A file chosen by path is read through in
+place and stays for as long as the file does.
+
+First run: seeds itself from the sessions that already exist, oldest first,
+so the list is not empty for someone who has been using the tool for a week.

 The geometry is exact (`warp.py`); the detection is advisory (`detect.py`) and the human corrects it. **When a detection is wrong and you want to know why**, ask for the candidate list: `POST /api/detect {"trace": true}` writes `<session>/candidates.json`, or run `python3 scripts/detect.py --photo P --out-corners /tmp/c.json --trace /tmp/t.json` (add `--click X,Y`). Every candidate quad is in there with its score and whether it was accepted, rejected, never reached, or filtered out by the click — which is what separates "the screen was never proposed" from "it was proposed and something else won".
