Collapse the two per-language Telegram bots into one unified bot and
replace language-based variant gating with explicit per-user variant
preferences.
- Telegram: one bot; drop service_language and the supported_languages
set everywhere (DB, account, auth, FlatBuffers Session wire, gateway,
connector proto). The single bot renders chat and out-of-app push in
the recipient's preferred_language; remove the game-language push
routing override (notify Intent.Language / push Event.language).
- Preferences: new accounts.variant_preferences (text[], DB default
{erudit_ru}, CHECK non-empty + subset of the three variants). Gates
the New Game picker, vs-AI and the friend invitation the player
creates, enforced server-side (HTTP 400 otherwise); an invited friend
may still accept any variant. Edited on the Settings screen; variants
are Erudit-first everywhere.
- Admin: drop the per-bot language selectors (broadcast / send-to-user)
and the feedback channel_lang column/field.
- Env/CI: collapse TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN_{EN,RU}, TELEGRAM_GAME_CHANNEL_ID_{EN,RU},
VITE_TELEGRAM_LINK{,_EN,_RU} and VITE_TELEGRAM_GAME_CHANNEL_NAME_{EN,RU}
to single unsuffixed names; drop GATEWAY_DEFAULT_SUPPORTED_LANGUAGES.
- Docs updated (ARCHITECTURE, FUNCTIONAL + _ru, platform/telegram, gateway,
backend, ui, UI_DESIGN, PRERELEASE).
The migration squash is deferred to a follow-up PR.
Decouple the displayed opponent name from the small pool of durable robot
accounts: the disguised auto-match robot now gets a freshly composed name each
game, stamped on a new game_players.display_name seat snapshot. The snapshot
also captures humans' names, freezing what an opponent sees for the life of a
game (a later rename no longer rewrites past games); readers fall back to the
account's current name for pre-migration rows.
Names come from a wide composed corpus (internal/robot/namevariety.go): Western
locales (EN/DE/ES/IT/FR/PT), native Japanese/Chinese names, a gender-agreed
Russian pool, and human-style handles. Routing keeps Pick's spirit -- a Russian
game draws Cyrillic + <=20% Latin and never a CJK script; an English game the
full corpus -- via robot.PickNamed.
Loosen account.ValidateDisplayName (and the UI mirror) to admit a trailing run
of up to five digits, so "Player2007"-style handles are valid for humans too
and the disguised robot stays indistinguishable.
Migration 00007 adds game_players.display_name (additive, NOT NULL DEFAULT '');
jet regenerated. Docs (ARCHITECTURE 7, FUNCTIONAL + _ru, PLAN, README) updated.
