Tags at runtime

Author tags are a freeform label layer that ships in the bundle. Every delivered line / text / gameEvent step carries its accumulated tags: the beat’s own plus every container’s above it (scene → block → group → snippet → beat), deduped and outermost-first, under step.tags (absent when empty):

if (step.type === "line" && step.tags?.includes("barked")) playBark(step);

When you need a level’s tags without walking to a beat, the engine exposes accessors:

engine.tagsForBeat(beatId);          // a beat's accumulated tags
engine.tagsForScene("the-tavern");   // a scene's own tags (by id or Game ID)
engine.tagsForBlock("the-tavern", "cellar"); // scene + block accumulated

The native ports expose the same three (TagsForBeat / tags_for_beat, etc.).
