The "waiting for your move" popup was the nudge (chat.nudge), shown without a
sender name. Resolve the nudger's per-game seat name server-side and carry it on
a new NudgeEvent.sender_name field, so:
- the in-app toast reads "<opponent>: Waiting for your move 🤭" (chat.nudgeBy);
- the out-of-app Telegram push names the sender too (render nudgeBy);
falling back to the plain phrase when the name is absent (RU mirrored). The
your_turn toast already named the opponent and is unchanged.
Lobby: when a card transitions into "your turn" or "finished" while the lobby is
open, its status emoji blinks twice (two 1s fades); the opponent's-turn change
stays in place. Blink state is keyed by game id (SvelteSet + per-id nonce/timer)
so overlapping events animate in isolation; suppressed under reduce-motion.
Toast: a per-message seq re-keys Toast.svelte, so the freshest toast cancels the
previous one and replays its entrance, uniformly on every screen.
Tests: notify.Nudge round-trip + render named/fallback (Go), game.Service.SeatName
(integration), codec/i18n/gamePhase/shouldBlink (UI). Docs (FUNCTIONAL +_ru,
UI_DESIGN) + PLAN TODO-7 (deferred FLIP card-relocation animation) updated.
New Game's quick game gains an explicit opponent selector — 🤖 AI (default)
or 👤 Random player. AI starts a game seated with a pooled robot that joins
and moves at once: no per-move timeout (a 7-day inactivity loss reusing the
turn-timeout sweeper), chat/nudge disabled, no statistics, the opponent shown
as 🤖 everywhere. The random path (disguised robot) is unchanged.
Driven by one game flag (games.vs_ai), set only on AI-started games so the
disguised path is never revealed; Matchmaker.StartVsAI seats the robot
directly (no open pool); the robot replies event-driven via the game service's
after-commit/after-create hook. Wire: vs_ai on EnqueueRequest + GameView.
Opening a game from the lobby for the first time this session showed a brief
loading flash, and every open showed a two-step rack->board jump: the saved
draft (pending composition) was fetched separately and applied only after the
board had already painted the full rack.
Both stem from the full state and the draft not being available synchronously at
first paint. Cache the draft alongside view+history (CachedGame.draft), make
applyDraft take the already-fetched JSON so it runs synchronously, and fetch the
draft in the same Promise.all as state+history. setCachedGame preserves the
cached draft when the delta path omits it and clears it on a committed move
(mirroring the server). A new preload module warms the per-game cache (state,
history, draft) for the lobby's ongoing games with bounded concurrency, so
opening any of them is instant.
Tests: gamecache (preserve/clear/setCachedDraft) and preload (warm/skip) units;
existing draft-restore e2e still green.
Lobby: remove the inert 🏆 Tournaments tab (it only raised a 'coming soon' toast); the lobby is back to three tabs, matching docs/FUNCTIONAL.md.
Game: fold the separate 🥺 Skip (pass) tab into the 🔄 tab, now Exchange/Pass. Its dialog passes when no tile is selected (button 'Pass without exchanging') and exchanges when tiles are ('Exchange N'). The tab is no longer gated on an empty bag (pass must stay reachable in the endgame); inside the dialog tile selection is disabled while the bag is below a full rack (bagLen >= RACK_SIZE).
The merge is UI-only. A pass is NOT an exchange of zero tiles: the rules allow an exchange only with a full rack left in the bag and forbid a zero-tile swap, while a pass is always legal; GCG (Poslfit) writes a pass as a bare '-' and an exchange as '-TILES'. Pass and exchange stay distinct end-to-end (wire, engine, history/GCG); the dialog dispatches the existing gateway.pass / gateway.exchange. No backend/wire/history/GCG change.
Docs: docs/UI_DESIGN.md, docs/FUNCTIONAL.md (+_ru), PRERELEASE.md. Tests: ui/e2e/game.spec.ts.
Quick auto-match no longer waits on a separate screen: Enqueue opens a real game seating the caller with an empty opponent seat (new game status 'open') and the player enters it at once. A second human searching the same variant+rule joins that open game; otherwise a background reaper seats a robot after a 90s + random 0-90s wait, pushing a new in-app opponent_joined event that fills the opponent card and re-enables resign and chat in place.
Matchmaking state is now the open games in the database (the in-memory pool, lobby.poll and lobby.cancel are gone), serialised by a per-bucket advisory lock. While a game is open the starter may move on their turn, but resign, chat and nudge are refused; the lobby and opponent card show "searching for opponent".
Schema edited in the baseline (no prod data): 'open' status, nullable game_players.account_id for the empty seat, and a games.open_deadline_at stamp; jet code regenerated.
Surface the per-game "single word" rule to the client and refine the
random-opponent New Game screen.
- Wire: thread multiple_words_per_turn into the GameView and Invitation
FlatBuffers tables (Go + TS regenerated), through pkg/wire builders and both
the backend push-event and gateway REST paths.
- In-game indicators (single-word games only): a small 1 in the status bar's
score-preview slot (yields to the live preview) and a centred "One word per
turn" label in the history-drawer header. Standard games show neither.
- Invitation card gains a "One word per turn" line for single-word invitations.
- Auto-match redesign: variant plaques are mutually-exclusive selects (highlight
on tap, no longer enqueue); a lone offered variant is pre-selected; a bottom
"Start game" button (disabled until a variant is chosen) confirms. The rule
toggle appears once a Russian variant is selected.
- Tests: e2e for the new auto flow and the in-game indicator (mock g3 is a
single-word game); mock/data + fixtures carry the new field. Docs: UI_DESIGN.
A tap/click on a lobby game row flashed a highlight on both tappable areas (the
open body and the right chevron/kebab), and the .open:active background lingered
while the finger was held — pointless feedback that only spoiled the look. Drop
the held :active background and set -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent on
the row's buttons.
Replace Menu.svelte (hamburger) everywhere with tab-bar navigation:
- Settings hub (SettingsHub) from the lobby ⚙️ tab: Settings/Profile/
Friends/About as in-place tabs, back → lobby; the lobby ⚙️ badge counts
incoming friend requests (invitations keep their own lobby section).
- Comms hub (CommsHub) from the move-history 💬: Chat/Dictionary tabs,
back → game; Dictionary only while the game is active.
- Game menu items relocate into the open history: 🏁 leave / 📤 export in
the header, 🤝 add-friend per opponent card, 💬 comms; unread chat is
badged on the score bar + the 💬.
- TapConfirm (tap → fading ✅ → tap) replaces the Skip/Hint press-and-hold
popovers and drives the add-friend confirm.
- Fix the move-history "jump": the slid board is inert and the stage can't
scroll, so a swipe up genuinely closes the history.
Remove Menu.svelte + HoldConfirm.svelte. Docs: UI_DESIGN, FUNCTIONAL(+ru),
PRERELEASE. UI check/unit/build/bundle/e2e (Chromium+WebKit) all green.
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.
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.
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.
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.
- #6 align the UI variant id to the backend canonical 'russian_scrabble' (type, variants, Lobby, mock, tests) — fixes the New->Russian 400
- #11/#12 inside Telegram force the colour scheme from WebApp.colorScheme (over OS prefers-color-scheme, fixing the Telegram Desktop breakage) and hide the theme switcher
- #14/#15 nav bar takes Telegram's bg; announcement banner gets a dedicated subtle --ad-bg accent token
- #16 suppress the reconnect banner while backgrounded and silently reconnect the live stream on return to the foreground
- #17 hint zoom scrolls to the placement's bounding box, not the top-left
- #19/#20 players plaque: active seat raised with side shadows, others sunk; tap toggles history
- #21/#23 history: scrollbar-gutter:stable (no word jitter); fixed-height drawer pins the bottom shadow to the board
- #3 (UI) disable nudge on the player's own turn
- #18a directional screen slide transitions (forward in from the right, back reveals the lobby)
- #13 per-game in-memory cache: instant render on re-entry + background refresh
- e2e: openGame waits for the slide transition to settle
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.
