Make a per-user block one-directional and non-destructive: the blocker stops
receiving everything from the blocked user (chat, nudge, friend requests,
invitations) and the matchmaker never pairs them, while the blocked user
notices nothing — their sends still persist by the normal rules but are never
delivered or surfaced (born-read). A block no longer deletes the friendship
(an unblock cleanly restores it) and instant-reads any unread the blocked user
had left for the blocker.
- backend: a directional blockExists guard across chat/nudge/friends/invitations
(store-but-hide for the blocked->blocker direction, refuse blocker->blocked);
the matchmaker excludes a block-related pair (both directions) from auto-match;
user_blocked/user_unblocked notifications to the blocker only (in-app only).
- ui: the opponent score card gains a block ✖️ control mirroring add-friend
(red "Block?" confirm, mutual-hide while confirming, struck name, hidden chat
composer when blocked); optimistic apply + event confirm + rollback for both.
- admin: the user card gains cross-linked blocks / blocked-by / friends lists.
- docs: FUNCTIONAL(+ru), ARCHITECTURE §10 + decision record, UI_DESIGN, PRERELEASE.
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.
In the console feedback detail, show the sender's interface language (account
preferred_language) always, and — for a message that arrived through an external
connector (currently Telegram) — the bot they last used (en/ru, from the
account's service_language).
Replace the dictionary hot-reload with an online update flow in the GM console
(/_gm/dictionary): the operator uploads scrabble-dawg-vX.Y.Z.tar.gz, previews the
per-variant words added/removed against the active dictionary, and confirms to
install + activate it. Versions are immutable; in-progress games keep their pinned
version while new games use the new one.
- engine: DiffWords (enumerate both DAWGs, decode only the differences), OpenFinder,
Registry.Finder, DictFiles; OpenWithVersions skips the .staging area.
- dictadmin: hardened release-archive validation + extraction (path-traversal,
symlink, oversize, entry-count rejection) and staging -> install (atomic rename).
- game: active dictionary version persisted in the dictionary_state singleton
(single source of truth, restored on boot), concurrency-safe accessor.
- storage: BACKEND_DICT_DIR is a named volume seeded from the image (nonroot-owned),
so uploaded versions persist across redeploys; the build's DICT_VERSION labels the
seed and equals the resident tag (BACKEND_DICT_VERSION).
- docs: ARCHITECTURE §5, FUNCTIONAL (+ru), backend README, TESTING, PRERELEASE.
Tests: engine + dictadmin unit; integration upload->preview->install->activate->
restart->pin->immutability->CSRF.
The games-list status filter offered only active/finished; add 'open' (auto-match games awaiting an opponent) to the subnav and accept it in normalizeGameStatus. Render test covers the new filter link.
The paginated users and messages lists interpolate the pre-encoded filter
query (url.Values.Encode) after the "?" in their pager and CSV-export links.
There html/template treats it as a single query value and percent-encodes the
structural "=" and "&" again, so "kind=robots" rendered as "kind%3drobots" and
the multi-pair message filter collapsed -- every page step dropped the active
filter.
Type FilterQuery as template.URL so the already-escaped fragment is emitted
verbatim (the attribute-level "&" -> "&" stays correct, the browser decodes
it back). It is safe because url.Values.Encode output is strictly
percent-encoded. games/complaints use status={{.Status}} -- a single value in
proper query-value context -- and were never affected.
- 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.
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.
