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.
- nav bar grows ONLY in game (other screens: minimal nav, content fills); tab bar always bottom
- tab bar: tighter icon/label spacing, bigger icons, hint badge on the icon corner
- board zoom reworked to width-based (real native scroll, fixes Safari/Chrome) + constant cqw labels; pinch & swipe-to-history dropped (conflict), double-tap kept, history via menu
- beginner bonus labels shrunk to fit cells
- Draw opens exchange directly (no confirm); confirm popovers restyled like the hamburger dropdown (vertical); removed the floating direction toggle
- pending tiles darker bg (no outline); last-word dark-tile highlight (static / 1s flash)
- check button disabled for <2/>15 chars, already-checked, or 5s cooldown
- global user-select:none (inputs exempt); docs updated; TODO-4 alphabet-on-wire
