feat: AI arrangement assistant — intelligent next-section and orchestration suggestions #1336

Context

From DAW tech stack research: Suno Studio is positioning as an "AI-native DAW" but lacks real DAW functionality. We already have 4 AI models (Text2Music, Lego, Cover, Repaint) and a sophisticated generation pipeline. The next step is moving beyond "generate a clip" to intelligent arrangement assistance.

No traditional DAW (Ableton, Bitwig, FL Studio) offers this. Suno/Udio generate full songs but can't help you arrange them. This is a blue-ocean opportunity.

Goal

Build an AI arrangement assistant that understands musical structure and helps users compose complete songs, not just individual clips.

Acceptance Criteria

  • Analyze current arrangement: detect sections (intro, verse, chorus, bridge, outro)
  • Suggest next section based on genre conventions and current arrangement
  • Recommend instrumentation/orchestration changes between sections
  • Chord progression suggestions that fit the current harmonic context
  • "Fill gap" — auto-suggest content for empty regions in the timeline
  • One-click accept/reject for each suggestion
  • Suggestions respect existing tempo, key, and time signature

Strategic Context

Competitive gap: No DAW offers this — Ableton has no AI, Suno has no arrangement view
Our advantage: LEGO pipeline + context-aware generation + full arrangement store
Builds on: generationStore, generationPipeline, projectStore
