 - **A server action written through a wrapper starts its transition on the right page.** `export const signIn = validatedAction(schema, async (data) => { … redirect('/dashboard') })` — the arrow inside is no symbol of its own — now belongs to `signIn` on the Screens tab, and `signIn` is attributed to the page whose component hands it to `useActionState(signIn, …)`, read from the source when the graph holds no such edge.
 
+- **A row reads in the code's order.** The boxes one step away from a handler now sit left to right as the code runs them — the database read, the token signed while the reply is built, the reply, the error reply — instead of in an arbitrary order; a call written inside another call's arguments (`generateToken(…)` in `res.json({ token: generateToken(…) })`) comes before it, and its link says `inside res.json(…)` in the panel and the tooltip.
+
 - **Each way an endpoint answers is its own box.** A handler that replies `200` or `401` now draws two reply boxes instead of one `200 · 401`, so each line from the handler carries its own condition on the picture — `→ user && (await user.matchPassword(password))` into the 200, `→ NOT (…)` into the 401 — the way a screen's transitions do; replies whose status the code does not spell out share one box labelled by the call.
 
 - **A reply that sets no status is a 200.** `res.json(user)`, `res.send(…)`, `reply.send(…)`, `NextResponse.json(…)`, a `JSONResponse` or `jsonify(…)` with no status in the chain now count as `200`, so an endpoint's success reply has a box of its own beside the `401`'s and its row carries its code; a status set by the statement just before (`res.status(202); res.json(user)`) is that reply's. An Express handler written inline at the registration keeps its own replies too — they were filtered out with the framework noise.
