- SpectrogramMetric: log-frequency STFT power heatmap over time, magma
colormap, -80 dB floor. Adaptive hop caps time bins at ~4000 so long
tracks stay responsive on redraw; N_FFT=4096 keeps low-freq resolution.
- master_core: load audio at native sample rate (librosa.load sr=None)
instead of librosa's 22050 Hz default, so the full band up to the
file's own nyquist (~22 kHz at 44.1 kHz) is analysed. ~2x heavier on
44.1/48 kHz files, by design.
- metrics: shared _show_axis_extents helper forces each axis's exact
min/max onto the tick list with compact labels (_fmt_tick), so the
true range is always readable -- notably the spectrogram's 22 kHz top,
which otherwise sits unlabelled between log-scale decade ticks. Applied
to all metric renders.
- Docs: README + CLAUDE updated for the new metric, native-rate loading,
and axis-readability behaviour.

Major refactor from popup-based to persistent PyQt5 interface:
- Extract plotting logic from AudioFile class into separate PlottingEngine
- Create AudioVisualizationWidget with embedded matplotlib canvas
- Add AnalysisResultsManager as bridge between processing and GUI
- Replace simple drag-drop widget with professional splitter layout
- Preserve legacy batch processing mode with execution guard
Features:
- Drag-and-drop audio analysis (.mp3/.wav/.flac support)
- File list with metadata display (BPM, amplitudes, track info)
- Persistent visualization area (no more matplotlib popups)
- Multi-file support with click-to-view functionality
- Threading-ready architecture for future background processing
Technical improvements:
- Clean separation of concerns (analysis/visualization/GUI)
- Qt signal-slot communication pattern
- Modular component design ready for multithreading
- Proper import guards prevent legacy code interference
