Research direction

Start with annotation_gui_gcp/main.py and annotation_gui_gcp/lib/GUI.py, then inspect opensfm/init.py around the import of pybundle. Reproduce the reported command and determine whether the import succeeds without the circular-import error; the issue is resolved when the GUI starts past this traceback.
