The ManifestEditor had a feedback loop: 1. State change → buildManifest changes → onChange notifies parent 2. Parent updates manifestData → new manifest prop 3. Loading effect sets all state from manifest (arrays get new refs even if same content) 4. New array refs → buildManifest changes → onChange fires again → loop Fix: track the last-sent manifest via a ref and only call onChange when the serialized built manifest actually differs. This breaks the cycle because after the loading effect syncs state, the rebuilt manifest is identical in content so we skip the parent notification.
