Three owner-requested polish changes:
- robot: replace the lengthening 60-90 min -> 6 h proactive-nudge ramp with a
flat uniform 9-12 h wait before every nudge; the existing sleep-window gate
still skips and defers a nudge that would land in the robot's night.
- ui: colour the lobby/in-game unread dot by type -- the regular danger colour
when a chat message is unread, a softer amber (--warn) when only nudges are.
Adds a per-viewer unread_messages flag (chat_messages.kind='message') across
the backend DTO, FlatBuffers wire, gateway transcode and the UI store.
- ui: float games with any unread notification to the top of the lobby's
your-turn and opponent-turn sections (finished keeps its order), reusing the
existing unread_chat flag.
Docs (ARCHITECTURE 7, FUNCTIONAL + _ru) updated. No DB migration; the new wire
field is backward-compatible.
Persist per-message read state as a chat_messages.unread_seats bitmask
(migration 00008): a text message seeds every recipient seat's bit, a nudge
only the awaited seat's. A seat's bit clears when the player opens the move
history or chat (POST /games/:id/chat/read, sent only when something is
unread), and a nudge additionally clears when its recipient answers by moving
(a wired game NudgeClearer, dependency-inverted so game keeps off social).
UI shows a per-viewer unread dot in the lobby (next to the opponent) and the
game score bar — the unread_chat game-view flag seeds it from authoritative
REST views, live chat/nudge events raise it. Opening the move history counts
as reading (even without entering chat): the 💬 fade-blinks twice and the
client acks. Admin Messages gains an unread-only filter, a read/unread column,
and a per-message card with the per-seat read breakdown. Observability:
chat_read_duration histogram + chat_unread_messages gauge + social tracing.
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.
Review fixes for open-game auto-match: decodeMatchResult dropped the game when matched=false (an open game awaiting an opponent), so the client never navigated into it - decode the game whenever present. The lobby grouped open games (status != 'active') into 'finished'; treat 'open' as in progress in groupGames/isMyTurn and resultBadge. The under-board status bar now reads "Opponent's turn" while the empty opponent seat is to move (instead of the searching placeholder). The New Game rule toggle is shown from the start when a Russian variant is available, so selecting a variant no longer shifts the layout.
Regression tests: codec (game decoded with matched=false), lobbysort + result (open is in progress), and the new-game e2e updated. UI-only; no backend or schema change.
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.
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.
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.
- Resign on the opponent's turn: engine ResignSeat(seat) resigns a specific seat
(not just toMove); game.Resign bypasses the turn check and forfeits the actor's seat.
- Quick-match cancel was a UI no-op (only stopped polling): add the full path
(REST /lobby/cancel -> gateway lobby.cancel -> client) and clear the matchmaker's
pending result on Cancel, so a cancelled search is dequeued (no 'already queued', no
later robot-substituted game). NewGame dequeues on cancel and on abandon.
- Lobby win/loss: result.ts ranked by score, so a 0-0 resignation read as a win.
The winner now takes rank 1 and the viewer is placed from rank 2 — matching the
game-detail screen.
- Friend request to a robot: robots no longer block requests; the request stays
pending and expires (friendRequestTTL), mirroring a human who ignores it.
- Nudge cooldown: ErrNudgeTooSoon now maps to a distinct nudge_too_soon code with a
correct message; the chat nudge button disables during the hourly cooldown; the
nudge note reads 'Waiting for your move!' (button keeps the Nudge action label).
Tests: engine/service off-turn resign, matchmaker cancel-clears-result, friend-to-robot
inttest, result.ts 0-0 resignation, nudge_too_soon mapping.
