What

The README used "gate" in two spots without defining it, leaving a fresh reader to infer the meaning:

  • The norm record command row: "...to tune the gate."
  • The "Capture gate." heading in How it works.

The "gate" is the set of rules that decide whether a given capture tick actually stores a frame (skip-if-idle + perceptual-hash/AX dedupe). This PR replaces the jargon with plain descriptions of that behavior rather than defining the term.

Changes

  • norm record row → "...to tune how often it captures and when a tick is skipped."
  • Heading "Capture gate." → "Skipping idle and duplicate frames."

Note

Opening this so you can leave line-level feedback on the README. The whole file is reachable for comments in the Files changed tab — comment on any shown line, or use the expand (↕) arrows to reveal and comment on the rest.

The README used "gate" in two places (the `norm record` row and the
"How it works" heading) without defining it. A fresh reader has to infer
that it means the idle-skip + dedupe rules deciding whether a tick stores
a capture. Replace the term with plain descriptions of that behavior.
