Didactopus Layout-Aware Graph Engine Layer

This update extends the animated concept-graph scaffold with a layout-aware graph engine.

What it adds

stable node positioning
pack-authored coordinates
automatic layered layout fallback
cross-pack concept links
SVG frame export scaffolding
UI prototype with stable animated graph playback

Why this matters

Animated concept graphs are much more readable when node positions do not jump around. This layer makes the graph a more faithful representation of a mastery ecosystem by adding:

deterministic coordinates
prerequisite layering
optional author-specified placement
cross-pack links for broader learning pathways
export-ready frame generation for later GIF/MP4 pipelines

Layout model

The engine uses this priority order:

explicit pack-authored coordinates
automatic layered layout from prerequisite depth
deterministic horizontal spacing inside each depth layer

Export model

This scaffold includes:

graph frame payloads from the API
SVG frame export helper script
one SVG per frame for later conversion to GIF/MP4 with external tools

Strong next step

force-directed refinement
edge highlighting on unlock transitions
cross-pack supergraph views
direct GIF/MP4 rendering pipeline
