These pre-R4 summary scalars on OpponentMovedEvent were redundant with the
move/game delta and read by nobody — the UI codec and mock take only
move/game/bag_len, and the gateway forwards the push payload verbatim. Removed
from scrabble.fbs, the notify emit (notify/events.go) and the round-trip test;
regenerated the FB Go + TS bindings. No prod data, so the wire-slot renumber is
free and there is no DB change.
Pass (a) removed a stale "(reaping abandoned guest rows is deferred — TODO-3)"
note from ARCHITECTURE §3, but guest reaping is implemented (the background
reaper, BACKEND_GUEST_REAP_INTERVAL / BACKEND_GUEST_RETENTION, covered by
inttest). State the current behaviour instead.
A full section-by-section review of ARCHITECTURE / FUNCTIONAL (+_ru) / TESTING /
UI_DESIGN against the code found no other drift — each R-phase baked its own docs,
and FUNCTIONAL/TESTING already describe the reaper correctly.
Analysed the real dist (gzip + sourcemap attribution): the bundle is already minified + tree-shaken and dominated by the Connect/FlatBuffers transport runtime + generated bindings + the Svelte runtime (~2/3 of main), so no in-scope code slimming is warranted. Lazy-loading was rejected (bundle-size.mjs sums every chunk -> zero total-size win, plus +N gateway fetches of latency); i18n lazy-load and chunk-collapsing likewise (caching/HTTP2).
Instead bundle-size.mjs now measures per HTML entry with three independent gates (app entry <=100 KB, Svelte+i18n shared <=30 KB, landing-own <=5 KB): the app's real payload is its entry chunk + the shared chunk (~97 KB), never landing.js. Same CLI + exit-code contract, CI step unchanged. Fixed the stale ~82 KB figure in the script and ui/README.md. No app code change.
Enrich the in-app live stream into a delta channel so the UI renders a move from the event without a follow-up game.state, and make the matchmaking poll a stream-down fallback.
- pkg/fbs: trailing fields on opponent_moved (move+game+bag_len), your_turn (move_count), match_found (state), game_over (game), notify (account/invitation/state), MoveResult (rack+bag_len); regenerate Go + TS.
- backend: notify owns the FB encoding (encode.go + payload.go input structs); game/lobby/social map their domain types in. emitMove builds the move delta; game.Service.InitialState feeds match_found/game_started the recipient's initial StateView; friends/invitations notify carry their account/invitation. The move-commit response (submit_play/pass/exchange/resign) returns the actor's refilled rack + bag size.
- gateway: MoveResult transcode carries rack+bag_len.
- ui: pure lib/gamedelta.ts reducer advances the per-game cache keyed on move_count (idempotent + gap-safe); app.svelte seeds the cache on match_found/game_started; Game.svelte applies the delta (commit/pass/exchange/resign drop their load()); NewGame polls only while app.streamAlive is false.
- docs: ARCHITECTURE §10, FUNCTIONAL(+ru), backend/gateway/ui READMEs; PRERELEASE R4 marked done + Refinements.
- gateway/Dockerfile gains a `landing` target: caddy:2-alpine + the shared
Vite build (identical build args keep the ui stage a single cached build);
the gateway target drops landing.html from the embed.
- The contour caddy routes /app/, /telegram/ and the Connect path to the
gateway; the catch-all — the landing at / and any stray path — goes to the
new landing service, so junk traffic is absorbed by static file serving.
- deploy/landing/Caddyfile mirrors the webui caching (immutable assets,
no-cache shells) and falls back unknown paths to the landing shell.
- The gateway's / now 308-redirects to /app/ (keeps a local no-caddy run
usable); webui placeholder landing.html removed.
- CI deploy probe checks both / (landing) and /app/ (gateway).
Verified: both images build; the landing container serves landing.html at /
(no-cache) with junk-path fallback; the gateway image redirects / to /app/
and carries no landing content.
- accounts.flagged_high_rate_at baked into the R1 baseline (no prod data; the
contour schema is wiped after merge); jet regenerated — the regen also picks
up the previously missing game_drafts/game_hidden models.
- account.Store: FlagHighRate (set-once), ClearHighRateFlag, the flag in
GetByID/ListUsers and a ListFlaggedHighRate review queue.
- New internal/ratewatch: ingests the gateway rejection reports, keeps a
bounded in-memory episode window for the console and applies the
conservative auto-flag (1000 rejected / 10 min, BACKEND_HIGHRATE_FLAG_*).
- POST /api/v1/internal/ratelimit/report (network-trusted, like
sessions/resolve).
- Admin console: Throttled page (episodes + flagged accounts), a high-rate
badge in the user list, the marker + operator clear action on the user card.
- Tests: ratewatch unit suite, report-route handler test, renderer cases,
integration coverage for the store round-trip and the console flow.
- GATEWAY_MAX_BODY_BYTES (1 MiB): connect WithReadMaxBytes + http.MaxBytesReader
on the public mux; explicit http2.Server MaxConcurrentStreams/IdleTimeout and
an http.Server ReadHeaderTimeout (R2 report follow-up).
- gateway_rate_limited_total{class} counter, Debug per rejection, a rejection
tracker drained every 30 s into a Warn summary per key and a report POST to
/api/v1/internal/ratelimit/report (feeds the admin view + auto-flag).
- The dead AdminPerMinute/AdminBurst policy now guards the /_gm mount (429),
ahead of its Basic-Auth.
- resolve() logs the cause of infra session-resolve failures at Warn (the
transient unauthenticated dips from the R2 run); unknown tokens stay silent.
Ran the moderate early pass (50/200/500, 10 min/step) against the contour: ramped
clean to 500 players, 1.2 M edge calls, 48 870 plays, 2 798 games finished, no
crash/deadlock; cleanup removed all 11 000 seeded accounts. The per-user limiter held
under the gateway-hammer (99.97 % rejected, p99 2 ms).
Top finding: ~14 % transport_error on game.state at 500 players under CPU saturation
(backend/gateway/Postgres each ~1 core), amplified by the harness's single shared
http2.Transport (the harness itself peaked at 86 % of a core on the same host).
Observability finding: cAdvisor yields only the root cgroup on the contour host
(separate XFS /var/lib/docker); per-container metrics captured via docker stats; R7
should adopt the otelcol docker_stats receiver. Full report in loadtest/REPORT-R2.md;
PRERELEASE refinements logged; R2 marked done.
- display-name marker: letters-only 'Zzloadtest' (the editable-name validator
forbids digits/colons), so profile.update resends the seeded name successfully.
- draft.save: rack_order is a string in the backend draft DTO (was sent as []),
fixing the bad_request.
Both confirmed ok against the contour. chat_not_your_turn / nudge_own_turn are
by-design turn gates (backend/internal/social/chat.go), correctly exercised.
Adding the loadtest module to go.work (use ./loadtest + the scrabble/gateway
replace it needs) broke the other services' Docker builds: their reduced
workspace still referenced ./loadtest (not in their build context), failing with
'cannot load module loadtest: open loadtest/go.mod: no such file or directory'.
Each service Dockerfile now also -dropuse=./loadtest; backend and telegram (which
do not COPY ./gateway) additionally -dropreplace the loadtest-only scrabble/gateway
replace. Verified by building all three images plus loadtest locally.
New scrabble/loadtest module (the pre-release stress harness): seeds 1000 guest +
10000 durable accounts with pre-created sessions directly in Postgres (token hash
matches backend/internal/session), drives virtual players through the edge protocol
(real 2-4p games assembled via invitations, mid-ranked legal moves generated locally
by the embedded scrabble-solver — the edge carries no board, so the client replays
history), plus nudge/chat/check-word/draft/profile/stats and a gateway-hammer that
verifies the rate limiter. Prints a trip-report summary (per-op latency percentiles,
result codes, live-event tally). Go unit tests cover the pure pieces; the DAWG-backed
move test runs under BACKEND_DICT_DIR.
Contour: add cAdvisor + postgres_exporter + a 'Scrabble - Resources' Grafana
dashboard and the two Prometheus scrape jobs, for the R2/R7 stress-run resource
baseline.
CI: gate ./loadtest/... (path filter + vet/build/test). Docs: TESTING, ARCHITECTURE,
project CLAUDE repo layout.
Squash the 12 goose migrations into one 00001_baseline.sql (there is no prod
data; verified schema-identical to the chain via a pg_dump diff + the green
integration suite) and rename the game-variant labels
english/russian_scrabble/erudit -> scrabble_en/scrabble_ru/erudit_ru across the
backend, the FlatBuffers wire values and the UI.
dawg filenames and the Go enum identifiers are unchanged; the i18n display keys
are kept. Adds PRERELEASE.md (the R1-R7 pre-release tracker), linked from
CLAUDE.md. Contour DB wipe and the scrabble-dictionary tidy are follow-ups.
Two owner-reported defects from a live contour game.
A. Frequency: the robot's proactive nudge fired hourly for 12h+ (a 12h idle threshold
then the 1h cooldown, uncapped). Replaced with a lengthening, randomized schedule
(proactiveNudgeGap): the first nudge ~60-90 min into the human's turn, each later gap
growing toward 1-6h (uniform sample in [60min, ceil], ceil ramping 90min->6h over 12h
of idle, measured from the previous nudge), so a long wait gets a handful of
increasingly-spaced reminders instead of a stream.
B. Language: out-of-app push routed by the recipient's GLOBAL service_language
(last-login-wins), so after re-logging via the RU bot an English game's nudges came
from the RU bot. Now a game push (your_turn, game_over, nudge, match_found) carries
the game's own language (engine.Variant.Language) on push.Event, and the gateway
routes by it (falling back to service_language for non-game pushes). The New-Game
variant-gating guarantees the game's bot is one the player has started, so delivery is
never blocked.
Tests: proactiveNudgeGap unit + retimed TestRobotProactiveNudge; TestVariantLanguage;
emit your_turn/game_over language; TestNudgeRoutedByGameLanguage integration. Docs:
ARCHITECTURE (§7 nudge, §10/§13 routing), FUNCTIONAL (+ _ru), PLAN tracker.
display_name validation gains a rule: at most 5 special characters — the '.' / '_'
punctuation (spaces, which separate words, don't count) — so a still-well-formed name
can't be mostly punctuation. Mirrored in the Go ValidateDisplayName and the UI
validDisplayName; both unit-tested (5 ok, 6 rejected, 'J. R. R. Tolkien' ok). Docs:
FUNCTIONAL (+ _ru).
A dropped/reset/timed-out connection can surface as a Connect code other than
Unavailable (Canceled/DeadlineExceeded/Unknown/…) which fell through to the generic
'internal' -> a red 'something went wrong' toast appeared alongside the Connecting
spinner. Now toGatewayError (moved to the pure retry.ts, unit-tested) collapses every
transport-level code to 'unavailable' so it is retried + flips offline; and handleError
suppresses the toast for any connection code AND whenever the app is mid-reconnect
(!connection.online), covering the race where a unary error lands before the stream
reports the drop. Genuine server-internal / domain errors still toast while online.
Following the in-game bar, the Connecting indicator now also visually disables the
other proactive (server-sending) controls while offline: chat send + nudge, profile
save / link email|telegram / merge-confirm, friends (redeem, get-code, accept/decline,
unfriend, block, unblock), New Game (auto-match variant + send-invitation) and the
lobby hide ❌. Purely local controls (board/rack/reset, menus, navigation, settings,
copy-code) stay live. Each reads the global connection.online signal; full e2e + check
green.
Connectivity failures become state, not a toast on every attempt. A global online
signal (lib/connection.svelte.ts) flips on a transport unavailable / rate_limited and
on the live stream's drop, driving a pure-CSS header spinner + 'Connecting…' in place
of the title and softly disabling the in-game server actions (commit / exchange / pass
/ hint; local board/rack/reset stay live).
- transport: exec auto-retries with capped exponential backoff — every op on a
rate-limit (rejected before processing, safe), reads only on unavailable (a mutation
is never blindly re-sent, to avoid double-applying one whose response was lost; its
button is disabled while offline so the player re-issues on reconnect). A reachability
watcher (profile.get probe) and any successful traffic clear the signal.
- the old red error.unavailable toast is gone (handleError suppresses connection codes;
the indicator replaces it). A server-data screen still opens with the spinner and
fills on reconnect (global indicator + read auto-retry), so navigation is never dead.
- pure retry policy unit-tested (retry.ts); a mock-only window.__conn hook drives a
Chromium+WebKit e2e (indicator shows offline, the action disables, both clear on
reconnect). Full suite + build green.
- docs: ARCHITECTURE transport note, FUNCTIONAL (+ _ru), PLAN tracker (incl. #1 — the
bot already drains all updates, no change).
Also records #1 as investigated/no-change in PLAN. Other server-action buttons (chat
send, profile save, …) still degrade to a safe no-op offline; visual disable is easy to
extend.
The Telegram 'your turn' notification now names the opponent and recaps their last
move (voiced as the opponent: «{name}: my move — «WORD». Score 120:95» for a scoring
play; a short 'swapped / passed, your turn' otherwise), and a new game-over
notification reports the result + final score when a game ends by any path (closing
play, all-pass, resign, timeout). Scores are recipient-first (the reader's score
leads), 2-4 players (120:95:80).
- schema: YourTurnEvent gains opponent_name/last_action/last_word/score_line
(appended, backward-compatible); new GameOverEvent{result, score_line}. Go + UI
bindings regenerated (flatc 23.5.26 + pnpm codegen).
- backend: notify.YourTurn enriched + notify.GameOver; emitMove resolves the mover's
name and emits per-recipient (your_turn to the next mover, game_over to every seat),
with recipient-first score lines built in one place.
- gateway: game_over joins the out-of-app whitelist (routing.go).
- connector: render builds the enriched your_turn + game_over text per language (en/ru).
- tests: notify round-trip (enriched + game_over), emit (enriched fields + game_over to
all seats / per-seat result), connector render (en/ru), routing; integration replay
(play → your_turn with real name; resign → game_over) green.
- docs: ARCHITECTURE push catalog + out-of-app set, FUNCTIONAL (+ _ru), PLAN tracker.
Owner review: the '>' on an active game row should be a real tap target that opens
the game, like the rest of the row — not inert. The chevron now navigates (kept out
of the tab order / a11y tree since the row's main button already does the same), and
active-row swipes no longer suppress the tap. Adds an e2e for the chevron navigation.
A player can remove a finished game from their own 'my games' list. The action is
per-account, finished-only and irreversible (the game stays for the other players;
there is no un-hide).
- backend: migration 00012 game_hidden(account_id, game_id); store HideGame +
hiddenGameIDs + ListGamesForAccount filtering; service HideGame (seat + finished
checks, reusing ErrNotAPlayer / ErrGameActive); POST /api/v1/user/games/:id/hide.
- gateway: game.hide edge op (reuses GameActionRequest -> Ack) + backendclient.HideGame.
- ui: finished rows reveal a delete via swipe-left (touch) or a kebab tap (desktop),
active rows get an inert chevron for icon alignment; optimistic removal + lobby-cache
sync; mock + transport + client wiring; lobby.hideGame label (en/ru).
- tests: integration (active->ErrGameActive, outsider->ErrNotAPlayer, per-account,
idempotent), gateway transcode round-trip, mock e2e (kebab -> delete); hardened a
pre-existing chat-screen .back transition flake surfaced by the new test's timing.
- docs: ARCHITECTURE persistence list, FUNCTIONAL (+ _ru) lobby story, PLAN tracker.
The 'lobby is back' rule slid the chat/check back-to-the-game forward. Direction is now
computed from route depth (lobby < game < chat/check): shallower = back, deeper = forward.
- Chat and word-check are now routed screens (/game/:id/chat, /game/:id/check) with a
header back to the game and no tab-bar, replacing their modals. The soft keyboard just
resizes the visible viewport (tracked into --vvh, which the Screen height uses since iOS
does not shrink dvh for the keyboard) with the input pinned to the bottom: no modal
relayout, no page jump. Supersedes the earlier bottom-sheet Modal attempt.
- A new chat message raises an unread badge on the in-game hamburger + the Chat menu row
(per game, cleared on opening the chat), mirroring the lobby badge.
- TG native back + the header back chevron return chat/check to their game.
- Exposes --tg-safe-top (device notch) for the finalised TG-fullscreen header.
Tests: e2e for chat/check opening as their own screens + back. Docs: PLAN, FUNCTIONAL(+ru).
The sender name and message body are user-controlled; a leading =, +, -, @, tab or
CR in the CSV export would execute as a formula when a moderator opens it in a
spreadsheet. csvSafe() prefixes such values with a single quote. Unit-tested.
A right-aligned 'Export CSV ↓' link in the filter row downloads /_gm/messages.csv
with the active filters (game / sender / name / ext masks), exporting every matching
message (capped at 100k) regardless of the page window — columns time, source,
sender_id, sender, ip, message, game_id.
- Edge-swipe back now listens at the window in the CAPTURE phase (the board's
pointer handlers can't swallow it) and is no longer skipped inside Telegram
(where the owner tests it).
- TG-fullscreen header: expose the device safe-area top (--tg-safe-top) and
centre the title + menu pair within Telegram's nav band ([safe-top,
content-top]) below the notch, keeping the band's height — lining up with
Telegram's own controls.
- DnD auto-zoom-on-hover delay reduced 1000ms -> 700ms.
(Client-IP: diagnosed as the owner's home-router SNAT — the host caddy already
receives 192.168.0.1 with no XFF, so the real IP is lost upstream of our stack;
correct in prod. No code change.)
- Client IP: the compose caddy trusts X-Forwarded-For from private-range
upstreams (trusted_proxies private_ranges), so the real client IP survives
the host-caddy hop (it was logging the docker caddy hop 172.18.0.x for chat
moderation and bucketing the gateway per-IP rate limiter on it). Correct and
spoof-safe in both contours (prod has no host caddy); peerIP unit-tested.
- Ad banner gated off behind a compile-time SHOW_AD_BANNER=false (the if-branch,
the AdBanner import and banner.ts are tree-shaken out of the prod bundle).
- Landing: the Telegram entry is just the 64px logo (clickable, no button/text).
- TG-fullscreen header: title + menu centred as a pair (hamburger right of the
title), pinned to the bottom of the TG nav band.
- Edge-swipe back (Screen): a left-edge rightward drag navigates to back
(touch/pen only, armed from <=24px; skipped inside Telegram).
- Chat soft-keyboard: a bottom-sheet Modal lifted above the keyboard by a
visualViewport-driven transform (compositor-only, no page/sheet relayout).
iOS-specific, needs on-device tuning; native resize=none awaits Capacitor.
- Tests: e2e for the in-game '✓ in friends' item and a board→board tile
relocation; codec units for last_activity_unix + OutgoingRequestList.
Deferred to the next PR (agreed): #4 enrich the your-turn/game-end push; #5 hide
finished games from the lobby.
A new /_gm/messages console page lists posted chat messages (nudges
excluded) newest-first — time, source (guest/robot/oldest identity kind),
sender (linked to the user card), IP, body, game (linked to the game card)
— searchable by sender name / external-id glob masks and pinnable to one
game (?game=) or sender (?user=), linked from the game and user cards.
The list query lives in social (raw SQL, kind='message', source via a SQL
CASE), reusing the now-exported account.LikePattern. Server-rendered
adminconsole MessagesView + messages.gohtml, 50/page via the shared pager.
Tests: adminconsole render case; backend integration AdminListMessages
(real Postgres) — nudge exclusion, game/sender pins, glob masks, source.
Docs: ARCHITECTURE section 8 chat moderation, PLAN round-6.
Lobby: group the my-games list into your-turn / opponent-turn / finished
(empty sections hidden), ordered by last activity (your-turn oldest-first,
the other two newest-first), as a compact line-separated list. gameDTO and
FB GameView gain last_activity_unix (turn start while active, finish time
once finished); a pure lib/lobbysort.ts holds the grouping/ordering.
Friends: the in-game 'add to friends' item is now server-derived via a new
GET /user/friends/outgoing (+ friends.outgoing op), returning addressees with
a pending OR declined request (both read as 'request sent'), so it is correct
across reloads; it shows a disabled '✓ in friends' once accepted. It
live-updates when the opponent answers: RespondFriendRequest now publishes
friend_added (accept) / friend_declined (new notify sub-kind, decline) to the
original requester, whose open game re-derives its friend state.
Tests: lobbysort unit test; gateway outgoing + last_activity transcode tests;
backend integration ListOutgoingRequests + respond-publishes-to-requester;
e2e updated for the new lobby section labels + a non-friend active opponent.
Docs: ARCHITECTURE notify catalog, FUNCTIONAL(+ru) lobby/friends, PLAN.
Addressing the review on #23:
- Flag star scaled up ~25% (the hammer&sickle emblem unchanged, kept clear of it).
- TG fullscreen header: drop the WHOLE header below the content-safe-area top
inset (the hamburger stays to the right of the title), instead of pinning the
hamburger to the physical top edge.
- DnD: a placed (pending) tile can now be relocated by dragging it to another
board cell (board->board); it lifts off its source cell while dragged; and it
can be grabbed even on the zoomed board (touch-action:none on the pending
cell, so the drag wins over the board pan). The manual-selection blue frame
now clears on recall.
Backlog item 2 of ~4 (owner review pass):
- USSR flag emblem redrawn (canonical hammer & sickle, scaled down 1.5x
below the star).
- Touch drag-and-drop: enlarge the drag ghost 1.5x on touch only (the finger
hides the tile); suppress the iOS tap-highlight that lingered on a rack tile
sliding into a dragged tile's slot.
- Telegram fullscreen: its native nav no longer hides our header -- the header
drops below the content-safe-area top inset and the menu (hamburger) lifts
into the nav band, centred (--tg-content-top from the SDK inset + a
tg-fullscreen class; new telegram.ts helper + app wiring).
Tests: UI check/test:unit/build + full e2e (60) green. The iOS tap-highlight
fix and the TG-fullscreen layout want on-device verification on the deploy.
