- backend + gateway multi-stage distroless Dockerfiles; the gateway embeds and
serves the SPA at / and /telegram/ via go:embed (committed dist placeholder,
real build baked in by the image's node stage)
- deploy/docker-compose.yml: backend + gateway + Postgres + Telegram connector
(VPN sidecar) + OTel Collector + Prometheus (15d) + Tempo (72h) + Grafana,
fronted by a caddy owning a single /_gm Basic-Auth (admin console + Grafana
subpath); inter-service on a private network, only caddy on the edge network
- new metrics: backend accounts_created_total{kind} (robots excluded) and an
in-memory gateway active_users{window=24h,7d} gauge
- CI: single .gitea/workflows/ci.yaml (unit/integration/ui + a gated test-contour
deploy) on the new feature/* -> development -> master branch model; the old
go-unit/integration/ui-test workflows are folded in; the connector-scoped
compose is retired (superseded by deploy/)
- docs: ARCHITECTURE §11/§12/§13, root + gateway READMEs, CLAUDE.md branching,
PLAN.md (stage 16 done + refinements + Stage 17 forward-notes)
Service-agnostic refinement of the owner's idea: the sign-in service returns a
set of supported game languages with the user identity, and the lobby gates the
New Game variant choice by it (en -> English; ru -> Russian + Эрудит).
- Connector hosts two bots in one container (one per service language, each its
own token + game channel; the same telegram_id spans both). ValidateInitData
tries each token and returns the validating bot's service_language +
supported_languages. Per-language config (TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN_EN/_RU, channels).
- supported_languages rides the Session (fbs, session-scoped, not persisted); the
UI offers only the matching variants on New Game — gating only the START of a
new game (auto-match + friend invite), not accept/open/play; backend does not
enforce.
- service_language persisted (accounts.service_language, migration 00010, written
every login, last-login-wins) and routes the user-facing Notify push back
through the right bot (push-target coalesces with preferred_language).
- Admin SendToUser/SendToGameChannel gain an operator-chosen language selector in
the console (unrelated to ValidateInitData).
- Non-Telegram logins carry the gateway default set
(GATEWAY_DEFAULT_SUPPORTED_LANGUAGES, all variants).
Wire (committed regen): ValidateInitDataResponse +service_language
+supported_languages; Session +supported_languages; SendToUser/SendToGameChannel
+language. Docs (ARCHITECTURE/FUNCTIONAL/_ru/READMEs) + PLAN updated; stage marked done.
- backend/go.mod pins gitea.iliadenisov.ru/developer/scrabble-solver v1.0.0; the engine's
imports use the published module path; go.work drops the solver replace (GOPRIVATE fetches
it directly from Gitea). The solver's wordlist/dictdawg are now public packages.
- CI (go-unit, integration): drop the solver sibling-clone, set GOPRIVATE, and download the
dictionary DAWG release artifact (scrabble-dawg-<DICT_VERSION>.tar.gz from the new
scrabble-dictionary repo) for BACKEND_DICT_DIR.
- Docs: ARCHITECTURE §5/§11/§13/§14 + backend/README updated to the published-module +
release-artifact model. PLAN.md re-scoped Stage 14 to the split and added Stages 15 (deploy
infra & test contour), 16 (prod contour), 17 (dual Telegram bots); TODO-1/TODO-2 marked done.
Live play now exchanges per-variant alphabet indices instead of concrete
letters (rack out; submit-play, evaluate, exchange, word-check in). The client
caches each variant's (index, letter, value) table behind
StateRequest.include_alphabet and renders the rack and blank chooser from it,
dropping the hardcoded value/alphabet tables. History, the durable journal and
GCG stay decoded concrete characters (ARCHITECTURE §9.1, unchanged).
- pkg/fbs: new AlphabetEntry + PlayTile; StateView.rack -> [ubyte] + alphabet;
StateRequest.include_alphabet; SubmitPlay/Eval tiles -> [PlayTile];
Exchange tiles + CheckWord word -> [ubyte] (committed Go + TS regenerated).
- engine: AlphabetTable + a cached per-variant codec (LetterForIndex/EncodeRack/
DecodeTiles/DecodeWord) + BlankIndex sentinel; Go parity test.
- backend server edge maps index<->letter (new thin game.Service.GameVariant);
game.Service domain methods, engine.Game and the robot keep one letter-based
play path. The gateway forwards indices verbatim (no alphabet table).
- ui: lib/alphabet.ts in-memory cache; codec encodes/decodes indices; premiums.ts
is geometry-only; the mock seeds a fixture table; the UI normalises display to
upper case (codec + cache), leaving placement/board/checkword unchanged.
Parity moved to the Go engine.AlphabetTable test; premiums.ts loses its value
tables. Discharges TODO-4.
New platform/telegram connector (own container, bot token only there):
- go-telegram/bot long-poll loop: /start deep-links + Mini App launch button.
- gRPC API pkg/proto/telegram/v1 (Telegram service): ValidateInitData, Notify
(renders a localized message + deep-link button), SendToUser/SendToGameChannel
(admin, wired in Stage 10). Generic methods are platform-agnostic (external_id).
- Bot API base override for Telegram's test environment; Dockerfile + compose
(VPN sidecar, no public ingress); README.
Gateway:
- initData validation relocated from the gateway into the connector; the gateway
calls ValidateInitData over gRPC (GATEWAY_CONNECTOR_ADDR), drops the bot token,
and deletes internal/auth.
- Out-of-app push: runPushPump routes events whose recipient has no live in-app
stream to connector.Notify, gated by /internal/push-target + the in-app-only
flag (race-free de-dup); HasSubscribers added to the push hub.
Backend:
- Migration 00007 accounts.notifications_in_app_only (default true) + jetgen.
- ProvisionTelegram seeds a new account's language/display name from the launch
fields; IdentityExternalID reverse lookup; /internal/push-target handler.
UI:
- Telegram Mini App launch: detect initData, apply themeParams, authTelegram,
route the deep-link start_param (g/i/f); /telegram/ guard redirects outside
Telegram. Vite relative base + telegram-web-app.js. In-app-only profile toggle;
share-to-Telegram link for a friend code. Vitest + Playwright coverage.
Wire/docs/CI: fbs Profile/UpdateProfileRequest gain notifications_in_app_only
(Go + TS); go.work uses ./platform/telegram; go-unit.yaml covers it; PLAN,
ARCHITECTURE, FUNCTIONAL (+ru), UI_DESIGN, READMEs updated.
Owner-review follow-up on the Stage 8 branch:
- Friend code is copyable (📋 + toast). The lobby notification badge is fixed —
it had inherited the hamburger-bar style — into a proper round count dot.
- Safari: min-width:0 on flex text inputs (friend code, profile, chat) so they
shrink instead of pushing the adjacent button off-screen.
- Profile editing is validated on both the UI and the backend: display-name format
(letters joined by single space/./_ separators, no leading/trailing/adjacent
separators, <=32 runes), a UTC-offset timezone picker (account.ResolveZone parses
±HH:MM or a legacy IANA name), a 10-minute away grid capped at 12h (wrap-aware),
and email format; Save is disabled and invalid fields red-bordered until valid.
Language stays in Settings.
- In a game, an "add to friends" menu item flips to a disabled "request sent"; chat
send/nudge became ⬆️/🛎️ icon buttons.
- A finished game drops its last-word highlight, hides Check word / Drop game,
disables zoom, and draws an inert (greyed) footer instead of hiding it.
Tests: account validators (name/away/zone), UI profileValidation, e2e for the
finished-game footer/menu and the copy control. Docs (PLAN, ARCHITECTURE,
FUNCTIONAL +ru, UI_DESIGN) updated for the display-name rule, UTC-offset timezone
and the 12h away window.
Wire the deferred Stage 7 surfaces end-to-end (UI -> gateway transcode ->
backend REST -> existing domain services): friends (incl. one-time friend
codes), per-user blocks, friend-game invitations, profile editing + email
binding, the statistics screen, and the in-game history + GCG export.
Friends gain two add paths (interview decision, a deliberate plan change):
one-time 6-digit codes (friend_codes table, 12h TTL, single-use, rate-limited
redeem); and play-gated requests (shared game required) where an explicit
decline is permanent, an ignored request lapses after 30 days, and a code
bypasses a decline. Migration 00006 widens friendships_status_chk and adds
friend_codes.
Lobby notification badge is poll + push: a new generic `notify` event drives
it live; the client polls on open/focus. Language stays a single Settings
control that writes through to the durable account's preferred_language. GCG
export is finished-only (game.ErrGameActive) and shares/downloads the .gcg file.
Tests: backend unit + inttest (friend gate/decline/code, ListInvitations,
GetStats, GCG gate), gateway transcode round-trips + notify constructor, UI
vitest (codecs, win-rate, share choice) + Playwright social specs. Docs: PLAN
(Stage 8 done + refinements + TODO-5), ARCHITECTURE, FUNCTIONAL(+ru), UI_DESIGN,
TESTING, module READMEs.
- nav bar grows ONLY in game (other screens: minimal nav, content fills); tab bar always bottom
- tab bar: tighter icon/label spacing, bigger icons, hint badge on the icon corner
- board zoom reworked to width-based (real native scroll, fixes Safari/Chrome) + constant cqw labels; pinch & swipe-to-history dropped (conflict), double-tap kept, history via menu
- beginner bonus labels shrunk to fit cells
- Draw opens exchange directly (no confirm); confirm popovers restyled like the hamburger dropdown (vertical); removed the floating direction toggle
- pending tiles darker bg (no outline); last-word dark-tile highlight (static / 1s flash)
- check button disabled for <2/>15 chars, already-checked, or 5s cooldown
- global user-select:none (inputs exempt); docs updated; TODO-4 alphabet-on-wire
Engine: multi-player drop-out-and-continue with a per-game tile disposition (remove default / return), resigned seats skipped and excluded from the win, leaver rack never revealed; 2-player behaviour unchanged.
New domains (service/store, no HTTP yet): internal/social (friend request/accept graph, per-user blocks, per-game chat with nudge as a message kind, content filter via mvdan.cc/xurls/v2 + leet/separator normaliser + phone heuristic) and internal/lobby (in-memory variant-keyed matchmaking pool, friend-game invitations invite->accept with lazy 7-day expiry). account gains profile editing and the email confirm-code flow (Mailer seam: SMTP or log mailer).
Migration 00003_social.sql + regenerated jet. main wires the new services into the server (accessors for the Stage 6 handlers); robot substitution stays in Stage 5, REST/stream/push in Stage 6/8. Docs (PLAN, ARCHITECTURE, FUNCTIONAL+ru, TESTING, README) updated.
internal/game drives the engine over a single match and owns everything the
engine does not: event-sourced persistence (a games row + an append-only decoded
move journal, with the live engine.Game kept warm in a cache and rebuilt by
replay on a miss), the play/pass/exchange/resign transitions with
validate-at-submit scoring, an unlimited score/legality preview, the hint
(per-game allowance + profile wallet), the word-check tool with complaint
capture, per-player game state, history and GCG export (Poslfit dialect), and a
background turn-timeout sweeper that auto-resigns overdue turns honouring each
player's daily away window. Like Stages 1-2 it is a service/store layer with no
HTTP; the gateway surface lands in Stage 6.
Engine: additive decoded domain API (Direction, SubmitPlay/SubmitExchange/
EvaluatePlay/HintView/Hand, MoveRecord.{Dir,MainRow,MainCol}, Registry.Lookup,
ParseVariant) so internal/game never imports scrabble-solver; and a Resign fix
so the resigner keeps their score yet never wins (the other player wins a
two-player game). Timeout reuses Resign.
Persistence: migration 00002 adds games, game_players, game_moves, complaints,
account_stats and extends accounts with away_start/away_end/hint_balance; go-jet
regenerated. account gained SpendHint. Config adds BACKEND_DICT_DIR (required),
BACKEND_DICT_VERSION, BACKEND_GAME_TIMEOUT_SWEEP_INTERVAL, BACKEND_GAME_CACHE_TTL;
main loads the registry at boot (hard dependency) and starts the sweeper.
Tests: engine resign + decoded-API tests; game unit tests (GCG, away-window
boundaries, hint budget, cache, keyed mutex, payload); inttest integration
(lifecycle, replay equivalence, timeout sweep with away grace, resign stats,
hint policy, word-check/complaint, per-game-lock). Docs (PLAN, ARCHITECTURE,
FUNCTIONAL +_ru, TESTING, README) updated.
backend/internal/engine wraps the sibling scrabble-solver library in-process:
- Registry: versioned DAWG load via dafsa.Load, keyed by (variant, dict_version),
latest-per-variant; English / Russian / Эрудит handled uniformly.
- Bag: own deterministic, seeded tile bag with Draw + Return (for exchanges),
since the solver's self-play bag cannot return tiles.
- Game: pure rules engine — deal, play/pass/exchange/resign, refill, per-move
scoring, turn order, and end-condition detection (empty bag + empty rack, six
scoreless turns, resignation) with end-game rack adjustment.
- decode/ReplayBoard: dictionary-independent MoveRecords and board replay via
scrabble.Apply (no internal/encoding), realising ARCHITECTURE §9.1.
Wiring: go.work gains "replace scrabble-solver => ../scrabble-solver"; backend
requires scrabble-solver (placeholder) and github.com/iliadenisov/dafsa directly.
Both Go CI workflows clone the public solver sibling (master HEAD, no token) and
set BACKEND_DICT_DIR.
Docs: ARCHITECTURE §5/§14, TESTING engine layer, backend README, and PLAN
refinements + deferred TODOs (publish/version solver; split engine vs dictionary
generator).
