From 921f3e74c5bb4b8ec0d0e78aab998fe8da7b314f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: landon Date: Tue, 15 Sep 2026 14:27:30 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] feat: Add 'New Scene' button to file list menu for creating linked planning+draft files MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit - Added create_scene_pair() method to workspace.rs - Added '＋ New Scene' button in file_list.rs UI - Button creates both planning file (05-Plot/act_N/scene_XX.md) and draft file (06-First Draft/Act N/sceneXX.md) - Files are automatically linked via YAML frontmatter (draft_file and planning_template fields) - Auto-detects current act from folder context - Auto-generates next scene number - Selects the draft file after creation (ready to edit) - Includes hover text explaining the feature Generated by Mistral Vibe.
