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.
Limit a player to 10 active quick games (auto-match + AI); friend games created
by invitation are not counted. At the cap the backend refuses both new-game
entry points — quick enqueue and invitation creation — with 409
game_limit_reached, while accepting an incoming invitation stays allowed, so
friend games are capped from the other end. The lobby disables "New Game" and
shows a low-emphasis notice, driven by a new at_game_limit flag on games.list
(no per-event payload: a turn change does not move the count, and the lobby
already re-fetches games.list on entry and every game event).
- game.MaxActiveQuickGames + Store/Service.CountActiveQuickGames (active/open
seats, no game_invitations row; hidden games still count -> dedicated count)
- Server.ensureUnderGameLimit gating handleEnqueue + handleCreateInvitation;
game.ErrGameLimitReached -> 409 game_limit_reached
- FB GameList.at_game_limit (regenerated Go + TS) through the gateway transcode
and UI codec; gameListDTO + lobbycache snapshot + Lobby.svelte + i18n
- tests: integration count rule + HTTP gate + accept bypass; server error map;
gateway transcode round-trip; UI codec + lobbycache unit; e2e gamelimit

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.
Operator-driven hard block, the counterpart to the soft high-rate flag: permanent or until a date, with an optional reason chosen from an editable en+ru picklist (snapshotted onto the block). A block forfeits the player's active games (opponent wins, as a resignation) and cancels their open matchmaking games. A backend gate refuses a blocked account on every /api/v1/user/* route except the block-status probe with 403 account_blocked, which threads through the gateway as the Execute result_code; the UI surfaces it as a terminal blocked screen and stops all push/poll. Temporary blocks self-expire; the operator can unblock at any time (lost games stay lost). Sessions are not revoked, so the blocked client can still reach the exempt block-status endpoint.
Backend: migration 00003 (account_suspensions + suspension_reasons) + jet regen; account suspension store; game.ForfeitAllForAccount; requireNotSuspended gate + block-status endpoint; admin console block/unblock + Reasons CRUD. Wire: fbs BlockStatus + account.block_status gateway op. UI: blocked screen, app state, transport/codec, i18n. Docs: ARCHITECTURE, FUNCTIONAL(+ru), PRERELEASE (AB).
Enforce one chat message per turn on both ends. The backend rejects a
second message in the same turn (ErrChatAlreadySentThisTurn -> 409
chat_already_sent), keyed on the move-driven turn start (turn_started_at).
The UI derives "already wrote this turn" from the message list against
GameView.lastActivityUnix (no counter, survives reopening, resets on turn
change), hides the field behind a short caption once the limit is reached,
and now reloads the game state on turn/game-state events so the toggle and
the limit follow the live game. Enter is gated on !busy to avoid a
double-send in the in-flight window.
Backend: new game.TurnStartedAt; social GameReader gains it; PostMessage
enforces the limit reusing lastMessageAt. UI: new lib/chatlimit.ts pure
logic + unit tests; Chat/ChatScreen wiring; chat.sentThisTurn and
error.chat_already_sent i18n (en/ru); extended chat e2e. Docs: FUNCTIONAL
(+ru), ARCHITECTURE, UI_DESIGN.
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.
- 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.
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.
Complete the client-side draft feature on top of the shipped backend
foundation (the game_drafts store/service):
- FB: DraftRequest{game_id,json} + DraftView{json} (a draft get reuses
GameActionRequest); regenerated committed Go + TS bindings.
- Backend REST: GET/PUT /games/:id/draft, a draftDTO
(rack_order/board_tiles) mapped to game.Draft.
- Gateway: draft.get/draft.save transcode forwarding the composition
JSON verbatim (json.RawMessage both ways -- no double-encode).
- UI: debounced save of the rack order + board tiles and restore on
load (lib/draft.ts), plus #5 -- tiles may be arranged on the
opponent's turn (placement relaxed; the preview and Make-move stay
your-turn-only, so an off-turn draft is position-only).
Tests: backend handler validation, gateway pass-through round-trip, UI
draft/codec units, and a draft-restore e2e.
PostMessage now rejects a chat sent on a finished game or when it is not the sender's
turn (ErrChatNotYourTurn -> 409 chat_not_your_turn), matching the UI where the message
field is hidden off-turn and only the nudge shows. Existing chat tests post on the
to-move seat and are unaffected; adds an off-turn-rejection integration test + the dto
mapping case + the UI error message.
- 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.
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.
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.
