- 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.
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.
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.

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.

Foundation for persisting a player's client-side composition: a game_drafts table
(game_id, account_id, rack_order, board_tiles jsonb) with raw-SQL store/service methods —
GetDraft/SaveDraft (seated-player check) and, on every committed move, clearing the actor's
own draft and resetting any opponent's board draft whose cell the play overlapped (the
draft can no longer be placed; the rack order is kept). Integration tests cover the
round-trip, the actor clear, the overlap reset, a non-conflicting survival, and the
outsider rejection. The gateway op slice + UI wiring follow.
The hourly nudge cooldown now clears as soon as the sender has moved or posted a chat
since their last nudge — engagement lifts the 'don't spam' limit. Backend: Nudge checks
game.LastMoveAt + the sender's last non-nudge chat against the last nudge time
(GameReader gains LastMoveAt). UI: nudgeOnCooldown mirrors it — a chat reset is read from
the message list, a move is tracked client-side (lastActedAt on commit/pass/exchange; the
backend stays authoritative across a reload). Integration test covers the reset.
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.
The admin game detail now shows, per robot seat, the game's deterministic play-to-win
decision (from the bag seed) and — while it is that robot's turn — its scheduled next-move
ETA (sampled think-time delay, deferred past the sleep window), plus a caption with the
~40% global target. Wiring: robot.PlayToWin/NextMoveAt/PlayToWinTargetPercent exports,
account.IsRobot, game RobotSchedule (seed + turn-start). Tests: NextMoveAt invariants
(never early, never in the sleep window), PlayToWin export, and an admin render integration
test asserting the intent + ETA + target appear.
TestRobotPoolProvisionsRobotAccounts asserted robots block friend requests; they no
longer do (a request stays pending and expires like a human ignore). Assert chat is
blocked and friend requests are open. (Unblocks the integration job / contour deploy.)
- 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.
- account.ListUsers/CountUsers with a UserFilter: people vs robots (by a robot identity),
case-insensitive '*'/'?' glob masks on display_name and any identity's external_id
- admin users list shows the real kind (robot/guest/registered), defaults to people,
with a People/Robots toggle + a filter form; pager preserves the filter
- integration test for the filter; SQL verified against the live contour DB
Service-agnostic refinement of the owner's idea: the sign-in service returns a
set of supported game languages with the user identity, and the lobby gates the
New Game variant choice by it (en -> English; ru -> Russian + Эрудит).
- Connector hosts two bots in one container (one per service language, each its
own token + game channel; the same telegram_id spans both). ValidateInitData
tries each token and returns the validating bot's service_language +
supported_languages. Per-language config (TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN_EN/_RU, channels).
- supported_languages rides the Session (fbs, session-scoped, not persisted); the
UI offers only the matching variants on New Game — gating only the START of a
new game (auto-match + friend invite), not accept/open/play; backend does not
enforce.
- service_language persisted (accounts.service_language, migration 00010, written
every login, last-login-wins) and routes the user-facing Notify push back
through the right bot (push-target coalesces with preferred_language).
- Admin SendToUser/SendToGameChannel gain an operator-chosen language selector in
the console (unrelated to ValidateInitData).
- Non-Telegram logins carry the gateway default set
(GATEWAY_DEFAULT_SUPPORTED_LANGUAGES, all variants).
Wire (committed regen): ValidateInitDataResponse +service_language
+supported_languages; Session +supported_languages; SendToUser/SendToGameChannel
+language. Docs (ARCHITECTURE/FUNCTIONAL/_ru/READMEs) + PLAN updated; stage marked done.
Live play now exchanges per-variant alphabet indices instead of concrete
letters (rack out; submit-play, evaluate, exchange, word-check in). The client
caches each variant's (index, letter, value) table behind
StateRequest.include_alphabet and renders the rack and blank chooser from it,
dropping the hardcoded value/alphabet tables. History, the durable journal and
GCG stay decoded concrete characters (ARCHITECTURE §9.1, unchanged).
- pkg/fbs: new AlphabetEntry + PlayTile; StateView.rack -> [ubyte] + alphabet;
StateRequest.include_alphabet; SubmitPlay/Eval tiles -> [PlayTile];
Exchange tiles + CheckWord word -> [ubyte] (committed Go + TS regenerated).
- engine: AlphabetTable + a cached per-variant codec (LetterForIndex/EncodeRack/
DecodeTiles/DecodeWord) + BlankIndex sentinel; Go parity test.
- backend server edge maps index<->letter (new thin game.Service.GameVariant);
game.Service domain methods, engine.Game and the robot keep one letter-based
play path. The gateway forwards indices verbatim (no alphabet table).
- ui: lib/alphabet.ts in-memory cache; codec encodes/decodes indices; premiums.ts
is geometry-only; the mock seeds a fixture table; the UI normalises display to
upper case (codec + cache), leaving placement/board/checkword unchanged.
Parity moved to the Go engine.AlphabetTable test; premiums.ts loses its value
tables. Discharges TODO-4.
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.
Lock the polish behaviours so a future edit surfaces as a failing test:
- backend: UpdateProfile now rejects a bad name layout, an away window over 12h, and
a malformed offset timezone (confirming it wires the Stage 8 validators); a new
integration test accepts and resolves a "+03:00" offset timezone.
- e2e (mock): the lobby notification badge count, the play-with-friends required
game type + invitation send, the in-game add-to-friends flipping to a disabled
"request sent", the profile-edit invalid-name Save guard, and the chat send/nudge
icon buttons.
Owner-review follow-up on the Stage 8 branch:
- Friend code is copyable (📋 + toast). The lobby notification badge is fixed —
it had inherited the hamburger-bar style — into a proper round count dot.
- Safari: min-width:0 on flex text inputs (friend code, profile, chat) so they
shrink instead of pushing the adjacent button off-screen.
- Profile editing is validated on both the UI and the backend: display-name format
(letters joined by single space/./_ separators, no leading/trailing/adjacent
separators, <=32 runes), a UTC-offset timezone picker (account.ResolveZone parses
±HH:MM or a legacy IANA name), a 10-minute away grid capped at 12h (wrap-aware),
and email format; Save is disabled and invalid fields red-bordered until valid.
Language stays in Settings.
- In a game, an "add to friends" menu item flips to a disabled "request sent"; chat
send/nudge became ⬆️/🛎️ icon buttons.
- A finished game drops its last-word highlight, hides Check word / Drop game,
disables zoom, and draws an inert (greyed) footer instead of hiding it.
Tests: account validators (name/away/zone), UI profileValidation, e2e for the
finished-game footer/menu and the copy control. Docs (PLAN, ARCHITECTURE,
FUNCTIONAL +ru, UI_DESIGN) updated for the display-name rule, UTC-offset timezone
and the 12h away window.
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.
Engine: multi-player drop-out-and-continue with a per-game tile disposition (remove default / return), resigned seats skipped and excluded from the win, leaver rack never revealed; 2-player behaviour unchanged.
New domains (service/store, no HTTP yet): internal/social (friend request/accept graph, per-user blocks, per-game chat with nudge as a message kind, content filter via mvdan.cc/xurls/v2 + leet/separator normaliser + phone heuristic) and internal/lobby (in-memory variant-keyed matchmaking pool, friend-game invitations invite->accept with lazy 7-day expiry). account gains profile editing and the email confirm-code flow (Mailer seam: SMTP or log mailer).
Migration 00003_social.sql + regenerated jet. main wires the new services into the server (accessors for the Stage 6 handlers); robot substitution stays in Stage 5, REST/stream/push in Stage 6/8. Docs (PLAN, ARCHITECTURE, FUNCTIONAL+ru, TESTING, README) updated.
internal/game drives the engine over a single match and owns everything the
engine does not: event-sourced persistence (a games row + an append-only decoded
move journal, with the live engine.Game kept warm in a cache and rebuilt by
replay on a miss), the play/pass/exchange/resign transitions with
validate-at-submit scoring, an unlimited score/legality preview, the hint
(per-game allowance + profile wallet), the word-check tool with complaint
capture, per-player game state, history and GCG export (Poslfit dialect), and a
background turn-timeout sweeper that auto-resigns overdue turns honouring each
player's daily away window. Like Stages 1-2 it is a service/store layer with no
HTTP; the gateway surface lands in Stage 6.
Engine: additive decoded domain API (Direction, SubmitPlay/SubmitExchange/
EvaluatePlay/HintView/Hand, MoveRecord.{Dir,MainRow,MainCol}, Registry.Lookup,
ParseVariant) so internal/game never imports scrabble-solver; and a Resign fix
so the resigner keeps their score yet never wins (the other player wins a
two-player game). Timeout reuses Resign.
Persistence: migration 00002 adds games, game_players, game_moves, complaints,
account_stats and extends accounts with away_start/away_end/hint_balance; go-jet
regenerated. account gained SpendHint. Config adds BACKEND_DICT_DIR (required),
BACKEND_DICT_VERSION, BACKEND_GAME_TIMEOUT_SWEEP_INTERVAL, BACKEND_GAME_CACHE_TTL;
main loads the registry at boot (hard dependency) and starts the sweeper.
Tests: engine resign + decoded-API tests; game unit tests (GCG, away-window
boundaries, hint budget, cache, keyed mutex, payload); inttest integration
(lifecycle, replay equivalence, timeout sweep with away grace, resign stats,
hint policy, word-check/complaint, per-game-lock). Docs (PLAN, ARCHITECTURE,
FUNCTIONAL +_ru, TESTING, README) updated.
