Accept the causal-VAE-aligned 362-frame bucket (15.083 s) for 15-second H3 requests.
- Hoist MINIMAX_H3_MIN/MAX_ALIGNED_FRAMES next to align_num_frames and reuse them in the CUDA stage, the MLX runtime, and the LoRA example so the bound is consistent across entry points.
- State the accepted frame range in the error messages.
- Cover seconds="15" -> 362 at OpenAI admission and the MLX resolve_geometry bound.
- Update the Spark/openai cookbook frame caps from 345 to 362.
Known gaps: no GPU-lane coverage for the 362 bucket (SSIM runs 124 frames; the golden gate is a fixed-geometry fingerprint), and explicit num_frames=360 still hits the pre-existing grid gate.
