Load all five Viewer configurations from native Parquet
Main-repository pagination remains ResponseNotReady for both the video-only and paired views despite generated Parquet files being present. This candidate changes all five configurations from folder conversion to source-controlled native Parquet inputs while retaining typed videos, the existing configuration names, the archive split, and default canonical selection.
The four new recording tables total 319,748 bytes. Every cell, schema field/type, null, row order, and Hugging Face feature declaration matches the existing converted controls at ecd2d0de0f5854739ce5c0136f057c99247a6386. They are generated from the authoritative CSVs at source parent 94ba224581bc337877b6972cc8add0789210c725; the inputs never reference the generated conversion branch.
The existing paired Parquet is reused without changing its bytes. Populations remain 1,205 canonical, 128 Pre-Standard, 364 earlier, 841 individual-recording, and 1,333 paired rows. These are overlapping access configurations, not additional recordings. Source media, CSVs, work identities, and provenance are unchanged.
The build workflow now refreshes/checks the native tables with the workflow exports. It verifies the source Git revision and CSV hashes, selected recording targets, output values/hashes, and paired recording membership; failed combined updates restore prior native outputs. The selected-front generator emits the direct native paired input. Documentation covers on-demand video references, intentional offline downloads, future-ingest checks, hosted acceptance, and rollback.
Validation:
- 191 repository tests passed, including 13 new native-table regression tests.
- All four regenerated tables exactly match independently pinned converted controls.
- README-driven local loading of all five named configurations selects Parquet and matches every stored cell and pinned target, with network connections blocked and Video/Image decoding disabled.
- Existing paired file SHA-256 remains
1844170c7341372ec800a1e5cfcf77beacd5a6f1e415994fb9626a476e717dc3. - No video payloads were opened or downloaded. Local equality does not establish hosted recovery or inline playback.
Reproduction and exact local results are in viewer/NATIVE_VIEWER.md, viewer/native_viewer.manifest.json, viewer/native_viewer.validation.json, and the new candidate section of docs/VALIDATION.md.
This PR remains draft and unmerged. After an approved merge, acceptance requires all five configurations at the new X-Revision, complete pagination with exact IDs, fresh paired-image delivery and true nulls, and actual inline video playback. If main remains pending, preserve that revision and ask HF to inspect its processing state rather than cycling speculative edits. Rollback instructions are in viewer/NATIVE_VIEWER.md.
