Page Evolution
Screenshots of the same page piled up across cycles under different names, with nothing tying them together, so nobody could see how a page had changed.
Every capture now names the page it shows. A new view lines up each page's history and compares any two moments by wipe, fade or side by side.

- An index lists every page and part that has screenshots, with its first and latest side by side. New in this cycle
- A page's address is the wrong label for it, and screenshots left in temporary folders are history lost. In words
How we got here
Each change, traced back to the conversation it came from. A solid mark means the record names the source; a dashed one was matched by the draft and waits for review.
From the record: no recorded conversation behind this one.
c96-D1 Each capture carries one subject label with a kind prefix, like a page or a component. — Mark Parson
c96-D2 Captures from the real app join the mock-up's subject, so mock, preview and app sit on one timeline. — Mark Parson
The Teams page can now be followed from its first mock-up to the live app, and any two moments compared.
From the record: no recorded conversation behind this one.
c96-D4 The view lives under the cycles pages, not as a new top-level section. — Mark Parson
c96-D5 Build the compare and lightbox parts on the design site first, and move them to the layer later. — Mark Parson
Each page gets a strip of its moments over a stage that wipes, fades or sets two side by side.

Asked to follow one page through time
His question, clearer separation between old and new screenshots and then a way to see one page's evolution, started the cycle; he ruled its seven design choices the same day.
