* feat(highway_3d): add one-click string-color presets
Adds 12 named string-color presets (Warm→Cool, Vivid, Colorblind-friendly,
Neon, Accessible, Warm Ember, Tape Deck, CRT Green/Amber, Pitch Ramp, Sunrise)
selectable from the 3D Highway settings panel.
Extends the existing core HWC (highway-color) subsystem in static/app.js with
HWC_PRESETS + applyHighwayStringPreset(), exposed on the existing facade as
window.feedBack.highwayColors.{presets, applyPreset}. The plugin settings page
renders the preset buttons from that core list and refreshes the per-string
pickers on apply. Purely additive — stock behavior is unchanged.
Scope: core static/app.js (the shared HWC facade both highways consume) plus the
highway_3d plugin's settings.html / screen.js / CLAUDE.md.

* fix(highway_3d): address review of colour-theming PR
- Rebuild assets/plugin.css so the new `flex-wrap` (preset row) and
`text-[10px]` (theme-dropdown helper) Tailwind classes are actually
compiled, and bump plugin.json 3.26.0 -> 3.27.0 so the <link>'s ?v=
cache-buster fetches the fresh CSS (per the plugin's build rule).
- Replace the mirror-at-every-read hwTheme migration with a one-time
backfill (persist hwTheme := bgTheme on first load, no emit). The two
scene-color axes are now genuinely independent: changing the Background
dropdown no longer silently retints the Highway surface/lane, and the
rendered highway can't disagree with the Highway dropdown value.
- Collapse the duplicated theme id-set in settings.html (two identical
<option> lists + VALID_BG_THEMES) into a single SCENE_THEMES source the
dropdowns and validator are generated from; sync points 4 -> 2.
- Update CLAUDE.md to document the backfill + reduced sync contract.

3D Highway
A 3D note highway visualization for FeedBack — an alternative to the default 2D highway, with a sense of depth and perspective inspired by stage views in modern rhythm games.
What you get
- A camera-perspective highway with notes flying down toward a virtual fretboard at the bottom of the screen
- Glowing strings that pulse and brighten on each hit
- Note Detection feedback, including hit/miss outlines and diagnostic early/late/sharp/flat labels when the note detection plugin emits enriched judgments
- Chord frame-boxes, named-chord labels, and a chord diagram overlay (configurable corner position) so you can read shapes at a glance
- Two complementary barre indicators fire together when a barre chord shape is detected (2+ consecutive strings fretted at the lowest fret, e.g. F
[1,1,2,3,3,1], or an outer-edge full-span barre with every intermediate string fretted, e.g. B majorx24442): a translucent vertical line across the strings on the 3D highway, and a straight bracket drawn inside the first fret space of the chord diagram overlay - A heat-colored fret number row that lights up around your active playing region
- Selectable color palettes for the strings — pick the look you want
- Audio-reactive ambient background animations (particles, silhouettes, stage lights, geometric — pick one or turn it off)
- Lyrics overlay synced to the song
- Works as the main player view or per-panel inside the splitscreen plugin
Install
3D Highway ships bundled with FeedBack — no separate installation needed. Pick 3D Highway from the visualization picker in the player.
Note: The bundled version is preferred over any user-installed copy with the same plugin ID. If you have an old
feedBack-plugin-3dhighwayclone on disk (from before 3D Highway was promoted to core), it will be ignored at startup — a warning in the server log names the path of the discarded copy. You can safely delete the stale clone.Fallback: In the unlikely event that the bundled copy fails to load its routes (e.g., a broken bundled release), FeedBack will automatically fall back to your user-installed copy and show a yellow "Fallback" badge in the Settings panel. Check the server startup log for the root cause in that case.
Settings
Most of the visual controls (background style, intensity, audio reactivity, color palette) live on FeedBack's Settings screen under the 3D Highway section.

Perf bench (?h3dbench=1)
Append ?h3dbench=1 to the player URL to enable opt-in console.log reporting of update() self-time, broken into six segments — frame (everything between pbBeg(0) at the top of update() and pbEnd(0) at the bottom; excludes the trailing pbReportTick() logging that fires after pbEnd(0)), state (per-frame state-derivation loop), next (next-note-by-string lookahead), mat (per-string material writes), noteDraw (single-note draw loop), chordDraw (chord draw loop). Reported every 5 seconds with p50 / p95 / max per segment and frame count, so before/after numbers on a target chart are reproducible (feedBack#226). Off-by-default; the bench helpers (pbBeg / pbEnd / pbReportTick) are bound to a shared empty-function literal when the renderer instance is created (each createHighway() panel re-checks the flag), so the hot-path call sites are no-ops with negligible overhead (typically JIT-inlined).
