Changes

E2E Test Fixes (tests/e2e/saas/)

• organization.spec.ts: Update "Continue Watching" → "Continue Viewing" (matches actual page copy); update empty state text pattern; update "From Your Collections" → "Recently Added"
• upload.spec.ts: Update "back to videos" → "back to dashboard" (matches upload page navigation)
• videos.spec.ts: Update "Continue Watching" → "Continue Viewing"; fix empty state text pattern to match actual rendered copy; replace non-existent /series and /channels/ route tests with tests for actual pages (/collections, /topics)

API Bug Fix

• apps/saas/src/app/(api)/api/highlight-reels/[id]/render/route.ts: Replace raw { _tag: 'ValidationError' as const, message: '...' } object with proper new ValidationError({ message: '...' }) tagged error class instance. This ensures the error is correctly handled by mapErrorToApiResponse and returns a 400 instead of falling through to the generic 500 handler.

Dashboard Section Rename

• apps/saas/src/app/(org)/org/[organization]/page.tsx: Rename "From Your Collections" section to "Recently Added" with appropriate description. The section was showing videos.slice(0, 6) (all recent videos) — not collection-filtered content — making the "From Your Collections" title misleading. Also removes the now-unused getCollections parallel fetch, saving one database query on dashboard load.

Stale Copy / Rebrand Fixes

• apps/saas/public/openapi.json: Update description from "video collaboration platform" to "Knowledge Hub" branding
• apps/saas/src/app/(org)/org/[organization]/loading.tsx: Fix stale {/* From Your Channels section */} comment → {/* From Your Collections section */}

Error Logging

• apps/saas/src/components/knowledge/video-decisions-sidebar.tsx: Replace silent catch {} with logger.error(...) call using the project's @nuclom/lib/client-logger. Decisions are still supplementary (no user-facing error shown), but errors are now observable.

Pre-merge Checklist

• TypeScript types: pnpm --filter nuclom-saas exec tsc --noEmit passes
