// calls over tens of seconds. Without streaming that is a long silence followed
// by everything at once, which reads as a hang — and the whole design rests on
// watching the canvas change as it happens.

// under the 30–60s idle timeout typical of reverse proxies, which is the thing
// it exists to stay ahead of.
