The saved casting prompt was the 2nd-quality verification prompt, so
first-pass attribution ran with the wrong job description and none of
the deduction rules — and the client-side prompt migration had no
anchor to upgrade. The server now appends the rules to any prompt
lacking them, and the saved prompt was reset to the default (backed up
to config/audiobook_prompt.backup.txt). Also: single-pass combined name
regex (a shorter alias could match inside a longer name's data-name
attribute and leak raw style="..." into the feed), stopword filter so a
comma-split alias like "Die, die den Vampir verließ" can't underline
every article, heading-like narration renders bold/centered, and A-/A+
font controls in the casting toolbar sharing the Rehearser Stage scale.

The per-word <span> wrapping behind "click any word to assign" created
~100k DOM nodes at book scale and froze the tab on every feed redraw;
replaced with native caretRangeFromPoint word detection plus a single
reused hover overlay — same UX, zero extra DOM. Export button gained a
2s re-entry guard (queued clicks during a freeze fired as a download
burst) and now delivers one zip: the cast script in Markdown plus a
sheet per character. Character detail view gains a Generation Prompts
section — four fold-out copy boxes (Voice Design, Character Image,
SillyTavern card, Concept Art sheet) filled by one LLM call over the
full profile via the new /api/character-generate-prompts endpoint.

- Add a 6-stage pipeline stepper (Source -> Cast Audiobook -> Cast Characters
-> Script Rehearser -> Generate MP3s -> Audiobook) with direct, non-destructive
jumps between stages and a prominent guided-tour look
- Split PDF import into an explicit "load" then "Extract Text" step, with
in-browser OCR (Tesseract.js, vendored) to recover chapter headlines baked
into a PDF as images instead of real text
- Fix casting feed silently merging pages after leaving/returning: segments
now carry their own page number instead of re-guessing it from text
- Fix excessive "Unknown" speaker attribution: restore the attribution LLM's
output token budget, which had been cut roughly in half and was truncating
dialogue-dense passages
- Fix Theater Play library cards failing to open (dead pre-migration
IndexedDB API calls, missing section navigation)
- Fix bulk "Set tag" wiping a voice's existing tags instead of adding to them
- Start merging Casting's feed with Script Rehearser's Stage UI: collapsible
character sidebar, shared "paper" page styling, inline text editing
- Fix a performance regression from that merge (per-row listeners on every
redraw) by moving to event delegation
- Various layout/clutter fixes: hide reader chrome until a document is
loaded, collapse secondary settings by default, fix overlapping toolbar
icons, fix duplicate "opening" notifications

Restructure the sidebar into Voices / Speak / Setup groups and fuse the
Read Aloud and Script Rehearser features into one workspace:
- New combined Library section (Books · Theater Plays · Characters/Cast)
with cross-links (Rehearse a book, Read Aloud a play).
- Character tags like voice tags: one record, many productions, reusable
across books/scripts; seeded with origin book, editable in the editor.
- Shared cast resolution: opening a production fills empty cast slots from
the character roster (matched by book OR tag); voice choices written back
on save. Productions joined by normalized title (prodKey).
- Tags nav group for voices (distinct tags + counts, Cloned/Designed/Fav).
- Fold standalone Characters into Library; Read Aloud now a single entry.

Add a persistent, book-scoped Character Library (new Characters section,
IndexedDB) that auto-fills from Character-sheet analysis with editable cards.
Enrich extraction with six narrative fields (backstory, relationships,
motivation, fears, mannerisms, voice/speech) plus the greyscale Good↔Evil
alignment bar, arc arrow, and 5-area Deep Analysis. Add ⋯ separators between
non-contiguous passages in Recast unknown, and harden dialogue attribution
against hallucination with same-language emotion tags.
