backend/internal/engine wraps the sibling scrabble-solver library in-process:
- Registry: versioned DAWG load via dafsa.Load, keyed by (variant, dict_version),
latest-per-variant; English / Russian / Эрудит handled uniformly.
- Bag: own deterministic, seeded tile bag with Draw + Return (for exchanges),
since the solver's self-play bag cannot return tiles.
- Game: pure rules engine — deal, play/pass/exchange/resign, refill, per-move
scoring, turn order, and end-condition detection (empty bag + empty rack, six
scoreless turns, resignation) with end-game rack adjustment.
- decode/ReplayBoard: dictionary-independent MoveRecords and board replay via
scrabble.Apply (no internal/encoding), realising ARCHITECTURE §9.1.
Wiring: go.work gains "replace scrabble-solver => ../scrabble-solver"; backend
requires scrabble-solver (placeholder) and github.com/iliadenisov/dafsa directly.
Both Go CI workflows clone the public solver sibling (master HEAD, no token) and
set BACKEND_DICT_DIR.
Docs: ARCHITECTURE §5/§14, TESTING engine layer, backend README, and PLAN
refinements + deferred TODOs (publish/version solver; split engine vs dictionary
generator).
