Summary

Watch assets/ and refresh asset catalog, thumbnails, and material registry without manual refresh.

Why

Production asset iteration needs file changes to become visible quickly and safely.

Implementation notes

  • Add file watcher with debounce for assets/ changes.
  • Refresh catalog entries, registry metadata, thumbnails, and material browser state.
  • Surface import errors and stale references in status/diagnostics.
  • Avoid repeated rebuild storms during bulk copy/import.

Acceptance criteria

  • Adding, editing, moving, or deleting files under assets/ refreshes the browser.
  • Thumbnail/material refreshes are debounced.
  • Missing references are reported clearly.
  • Manual refresh remains available as fallback.

Tests/docs

Watcher integration smoke tests where practical; unit test debounce logic. Update troubleshooting docs.

M2 coordination: implement live refresh on the path-agnostic catalog contract in #62. File operations/import transactions in #20 and #61 need watcher suppression/debouncing so the registry observes one committed change rather than partial intermediate states; acceptance is gated by #65.

Closed against M2 candidate cf6eaba

Live content watching now uses the shared incremental processing engine with debounce, transaction suppression, registry/manifest/catalog refresh, thumbnail invalidation, dependency-aware jobs, stale-result rejection, and actionable failure state.

Consolidated code, deterministic, native, and package evidence: M2 evaluation record. Candidate gates passed in full and the commit is published on codex/m2-content-workspace.
