Clicking Edit on the preview modal worked, but the user only saw an empty editor for ~25s while the recovery + format-chooser cycle ran and the bridge waited for a stable project. Looked broken. Now: a centered top banner appears the moment the bridge detects ?asset=, reads Loading clip from Z-AMPP MAM, switches to Clip ready in media bin on success, or surfaces the failure. Project-stability gate tightened from 1500ms to 600ms so the import lands sooner.
