//! Lock-free command protocol between the control thread and the RT audio thread.
//!
//! Commands are sent via an SPSC ring buffer. The RT thread drains up to
//! MAX_COMMANDS_PER_TICK per callback, bounding mutation cost.

use crate::{arena::NodeId, param::Param};
use serde::{Deserialize, Serialize};

/// All mutations the control thread can request.
///
/// Commands are sent from the control thread (UI, MIDI handler, etc.) to the
/// real-time audio thread via an SPSC ring buffer. The audio thread drains
/// commands at the start of each processing block.
///
/// # Design
///
/// - **Lock-free:** Commands are sent via SPSC ring buffer (no locks)
/// - **Bounded:** Max `MAX_COMMANDS_PER_TICK` processed per audio block
/// - **Clone:** Commands are cloned when sent (cheap - no heap allocations)
/// - **Real-time safe:** All command processing is bounded and allocation-free
///
/// # Example
///
/// ```
/// use aether_core::command::Command;
/// use aether_core::arena::NodeId;
///
/// // Control thread sends commands
/// let cmd = Command::AddNode {
///     id: NodeId { index: 0, generation: 1 }
/// };
///
/// // Audio thread receives and processes
/// match cmd {
///     Command::AddNode { id } => {
///         // Add node to graph
///     }
///     _ => {}
/// }
/// ```
///
/// # Command Processing
///
/// Commands are processed in FIFO order. The audio thread processes up to
/// `MAX_COMMANDS_PER_TICK` commands per block to bound latency impact.
