RFD 1002: Studio pipeline graph

Problem

A user wants to go from a text prompt to an animatable asset. The steps are sequential. Each step needs a status and a result.

Decision

Model the pipeline as a locked node graph. Each node is one stage. Each edge is a dependency. The graph has two views: a flow graph and a kanban board.

Stages, in order: Prompt, Image, Layers, Mesh, Rig, Motion, Export.

Runnable kinds, in order: text_to_image, layer_decomposition, image_to_3d, auto_rigging, motion_validation.

The data model stays pure. The executor runs the nodes. Old saved projects migrate to the new template. Migration inserts missing stages.
