    docs: cancel PyPI wheel task and add future vision for Python extension architecture

    Task #70 Analysis:
    - Discovered fundamental incompatibility with PyPI distribution
    - McRogueFace embeds CPython rather than being loaded by it
    - Traditional wheels expect to extend existing Python interpreter
    - Current architecture is application-with-embedded-Python

    Decisions:
    - Cancelled PyPI wheel preparation as out of scope for Alpha
    - Cleaned up attempted packaging files (pyproject.toml, setup.py, etc.)
    - Identified better distribution methods (installers, package managers)

    Added Future Vision:
    - Comprehensive plan for pure Python extension architecture
    - Would allow true "pip install mcrogueface" experience
    - Requires major refactoring to invert control flow
    - Python would drive main loop with C++ performance extensions
    - Unscheduled but documented as long-term possibility

    This clarifies the architectural boundaries and sets realistic
    expectations for distribution methods while preserving the vision
    of what McRogueFace could become with significant rework.

Author: John McCardle <mccardle.john@gmail.com>

    feat: generate comprehensive .pyi type stubs for IDE support (#108)

    - Better documentation tooltips
    - Parameter hints and return types

    Implementation details:
    - Manually crafted stubs for accuracy (15KB, 533 lines)
    - Complete coverage: 19 classes, 112 functions/methods
    - Proper type annotations using typing module
    - @overload decorators for multiple signatures
    - Type aliases for common patterns (UIElement union)
    - Preserved all docstrings for IDE help
    - Automation module fully typed
    - PEP 561 compliant with py.typed marker

    Testing:
    - Validated Python syntax with ast.parse()
    - Verified all expected classes and functions
    - Confirmed type annotations are well-formed
    - Checked docstring preservation (80 docstrings)

    Usage:
    - VS Code: Add stubs/ to python.analysis.extraPaths
    - PyCharm: Mark stubs/ directory as Sources Root
    - Other IDEs will auto-detect .pyi files

    This significantly improves the developer experience when using

    docs: update ROADMAP with PyArgHelpers infrastructure completion

Author: John McCardle <mccardle.john@gmail.com>

    refactor: implement PyArgHelpers for standardized Python argument parsing

    This major refactoring standardizes how position, size, and other arguments
    are parsed across all UI components. PyArgHelpers provides consistent handling
    for various argument patterns:

    - Position as (x, y) tuple or separate x, y args
    - Size as (w, h) tuple or separate width, height args
    - Grid position and size with proper validation
    - Color parsing with PyColorObject support

    Changes across UI components:
    - UICaption: Migrated to PyArgHelpers, improved resize() for future multiline support
    - UIFrame: Uses standardized position parsing
    - UISprite: Consistent position handling
    - UIGrid: Grid-specific position/size helpers
    - UIEntity: Unified argument parsing

    Also includes:
    - Improved error messages for type mismatches (int or float accepted)
    - Reduced code duplication across constructors
    - Better handling of keyword/positional argument conflicts
    - Maintains backward compatibility with existing API

    This addresses the inconsistent argument handling patterns discovered during
    the inheritance hierarchy work and prepares for Phase 7 documentation.

Author: John McCardle <mccardle.john@gmail.com>

    feat(Python): establish proper inheritance hierarchy for UI types

    All UIDrawable-derived Python types now properly inherit from the Drawable
    base class in Python, matching the C++ inheritance structure.

    Changes:
    - Add Py_TPFLAGS_BASETYPE to PyDrawableType to allow inheritance
    - Set tp_base = &mcrfpydef::PyDrawableType for all UI types
    - Add PyDrawable.h include to UI type headers
    - Rename _Drawable to Drawable and update error message

    This enables proper Python inheritance: Frame, Caption, Sprite, Grid,
    and Entity all inherit from Drawable, allowing shared functionality
    and isinstance() checks.

Author: John McCardle <mccardle.john@gmail.com>

    refactor: move position property to UIDrawable base class (UISprite)

    - Update UISprite to use base class position instead of sprite position
    - Synchronize sprite position with base class position for rendering
    - Implement onPositionChanged() for position synchronization
    - Update all UISprite methods to use base position consistently
    - Add comprehensive test coverage for UISprite position handling

    This is part 3 of moving position to the base class. UIGrid is the final
    class that needs to be updated.

Author: John McCardle <mccardle.john@gmail.com>

    refactor: move position property to UIDrawable base class (UICaption)

    - Update UICaption to use base class position instead of text position
    - Synchronize text position with base class position for rendering
    - Add onPositionChanged() virtual method for position synchronization
    - Update all UICaption methods to use base position consistently
    - Add comprehensive test coverage for UICaption position handling

    This is part 2 of moving position to the base class. UISprite and UIGrid
    will be updated in subsequent commits.

Author: John McCardle <mccardle.john@gmail.com>

    refactor: move position property to UIDrawable base class (UIFrame)

    - Add position member to UIDrawable base class
    - Add common position getters/setters (x, y, pos) to base class
    - Update UIFrame to use base class position instead of box position
    - Synchronize box position with base class position for rendering
    - Update all UIFrame methods to use base position consistently
    - Add comprehensive test coverage for UIFrame position handling

    This is part 1 of moving position to the base class. Other derived classes
    (UICaption, UISprite, UIGrid) will be updated in subsequent commits.

Author: John McCardle <mccardle.john@gmail.com>

    refactor: remove UIEntity collision_pos field

    - Remove redundant collision_pos field from UIEntity
    - Update position getters/setters to use integer-cast position when needed
    - Remove all collision_pos synchronization code
    - Simplify entity position handling to use single float position field
    - Add comprehensive test coverage proving functionality is preserved

    This removes technical debt and simplifies the codebase without changing API behavior.

Author: John McCardle <mccardle.john@gmail.com>

    feat: add PyArgHelpers infrastructure for standardized argument parsing

    - Create PyArgHelpers.h with parsing functions for position, size, grid coordinates, and color
    - Support tuple-based vector arguments with conflict detection
    - Provide consistent error messages and validation
    - Add comprehensive test coverage for infrastructure

    This sets the foundation for standardizing all Python API constructors.

    docs: mark Phase 6 (Rendering Revolution) as complete

    Phase 6 is now complete with all core rendering features implemented:

    Completed Features:
    - Grid background colors (#50) - customizable backgrounds with animation
    - RenderTexture overhaul (#6) - UIFrame clipping with opt-in architecture
    - Viewport-based rendering (#8) - three scaling modes with coordinate transform

    Strategic Decisions:
    - UIGrid already has optimal RenderTexture implementation for its viewport needs
    - UICaption/UISprite clipping deemed unnecessary (no children to clip)
    - Effects/Shader/Particle systems deferred to post-Phase 7 for focused delivery

    The rendering foundation is now solid and ready for Phase 7: Documentation & Distribution.

Author: John McCardle <mccardle.john@gmail.com>

    feat(viewport): complete viewport-based rendering system (#8)

    Implements a comprehensive viewport system that allows fixed game resolution
    with flexible window scaling, addressing the primary wishes for issues #34, #49, and #8.

    Key Features:
    - Fixed game resolution independent of window size (window.game_resolution property)
    - Three scaling modes accessible via window.scaling_mode:
      - "center": 1:1 pixels, viewport centered in window
      - "stretch": viewport fills window, ignores aspect ratio
      - "fit": maintains aspect ratio with black bars
    - Automatic window-to-game coordinate transformation for mouse input
    - Full Python API integration with PyWindow properties

    Technical Implementation:
    - GameEngine::ViewportMode enum with Center, Stretch, Fit modes
    - SFML View system for efficient GPU-based viewport scaling
    - updateViewport() recalculates on window resize or mode change
    - windowToGameCoords() transforms mouse coordinates correctly
    - PyScene mouse input automatically uses transformed coordinates

    Tests:
    - test_viewport_simple.py: Basic API functionality
    - test_viewport_visual.py: Visual verification with screenshots
    - test_viewport_scaling.py: Interactive mode switching and resizing

    feat: add basic profiling/metrics system (#104)

    - Add ProfilingMetrics struct to track performance data
    - Track frame time (current and 60-frame rolling average)
    - Calculate FPS from average frame time
    - Count draw calls, UI elements, and visible elements per frame
    - Track total runtime and current frame number
    - PyScene counts elements during render
    - Expose metrics via mcrfpy.getMetrics() returning dict

    This provides basic performance monitoring capabilities for
    identifying bottlenecks and optimizing rendering performance.

    fix: improve click handling with proper z-order and coordinate transforms

    - UIFrame: Fix coordinate transformation (subtract parent pos, not add)
    - UIFrame: Check children in reverse order (highest z-index first)
    - UIFrame: Skip invisible elements entirely
    - PyScene: Sort elements by z-index before checking clicks
    - PyScene: Stop at first element that handles the click
    - UIGrid: Implement entity click detection with grid coordinate transform
    - UIGrid: Check entities in reverse order, return sprite as target

    Click events now correctly respect z-order (top elements get priority),
    handle coordinate transforms for nested frames, and support clicking
    on grid entities. Elements without click handlers are transparent to
    clicks, allowing elements below to receive them.

    Note: Click testing requires non-headless mode due to PyScene limitation.

    feat: implement name system for finding UI elements (#39/40/41)

    - Add 'name' property to UIDrawable base class
    - All UI elements (Frame, Caption, Sprite, Grid, Entity) support .name
    - Entity delegates name to its sprite member
    - Add find(name, scene=None) function for exact match search
    - Add findAll(pattern, scene=None) with wildcard support (* matches any sequence)
    - Both functions search recursively through Frame children and Grid entities
    - Comprehensive test coverage for all functionality

    This provides a simple way to find UI elements by name in Python scripts,
    supporting both exact matches and wildcard patterns.

    fix: prevent segfault when closing window via X button

    - Add cleanup() method to GameEngine to clear Python references before destruction
    - Clear timers and McRFPy_API references in proper order
    - Call cleanup() at end of run loop and in destructor
    - Ensure cleanup is only called once per GameEngine instance

    Also includes:
    - Fix audio ::stop() calls (already in place, OpenAL warning is benign)
    - Add Caption support for x, y keywords (e.g. Caption("text", x=5, y=10))
    - Refactor UIDrawable_methods.h into UIBase.h for better organization
    - Move UIEntity-specific implementations to UIEntityPyMethods.h

Author: John McCardle <mccardle.john@gmail.com>

    feat: stabilize test suite and add UIDrawable methods

    - Add visible, opacity properties to all UI classes (#87, #88)
    - Add get_bounds(), move(), resize() methods to UIDrawable (#89, #98)
    - Create UIDrawable_methods.h with template implementations
    - Fix test termination issues - all tests now exit properly
    - Fix test_sprite_texture_swap.py click handler signature
    - Fix test_drawable_base.py segfault in headless mode
    - Convert audio objects to pointers for cleanup (OpenAL warning persists)
    - Remove debug print statements from UICaption
    - Special handling for UIEntity to delegate drawable methods to sprite

    All test files are now "airtight" - they complete successfully,
    terminate on their own, and handle edge cases properly.
