Lifecycle: HISTORICAL (published KEEP) — prefer current spine pages for SSOT.
CHECKLISTS ARCHIVE
Task List
-
1. Section: Phase A – Config & Theme Single Source of Truth
- 1.1 Task: Re-read DaisyUI 5 + Tailwind 4 docs to confirm the recommended configuration style (CSS
@pluginvs JS/svelte config) and record the concrete choice for this project in this checklist. Use mcps like daisy and docs.- Decision: Hybrid approach. We keep
tailwind.config.jsfor the complex theme object definitions (easier to read/maintain than CSS syntax for now) but use@plugin "daisyui"in CSS. Tailwind 4’s vite plugin supports this legacy config.
- Decision: Hybrid approach. We keep
- 1.2 Task: Audit current Tailwind/DaisyUI setup in
frontend/tailwind.config.js,frontend/src/app.css, andfrontend/package.json(plugins, versions, imports) and note the current responsibilities of each file.- Audit:
tailwind.config.jsis the SSOT for themes.app.csshandles global overrides.package.jsonhas v4/v5 versions.
- Audit:
- 1.3 Task: Decide and document the canonical theme definition location (CSS
@plugin "daisyui/theme"vs TS/JSON map) and list the official theme IDs we support (e.g.funday-light,funday-dark,cyberpunk,synthwave,retro).- Canonical Location:
frontend/tailwind.config.js. - Official Themes:
funday-light,funday-dark,cyberpunk,synthwave,retro.
- Canonical Location:
- 1.4 Task: Refactor Tailwind/DaisyUI configuration so DaisyUI is configured in a single canonical place (either CSS or JS), keeping Tailwind 4 happy; ensure
npm run checkand key e2e tests still pass after the change.- Status: Cleaned up
theme.tsto remove duplicated color definitions.tailwind.config.jsis now the effective SSOT.
- Status: Cleaned up
- 1.5 Task: Ensure custom Funday themes (including gameplay tokens like
--game-board,--game-slot-*,--game-piece-*) are defined exactly once and that DaisyUI exposes the expected semantic variables (e.g.primary,base-100, and--color-*or compatible fallbacks).- Status: Defined in
tailwind.config.js.
- Status: Defined in
- 1.6 Task: Align
availableThemesinfrontend/src/lib/stores/theme.tswith the DaisyUI theme IDs: keep onlyname,displayName, andisDark(or derive colors from the single source of truth) instead of duplicating hex values.- Status: Done.
Themetype updated to makecolorsoptional, andtheme.tssimplified.
- Status: Done.
- 1.1 Task: Re-read DaisyUI 5 + Tailwind 4 docs to confirm the recommended configuration style (CSS
-
2. Section: Phase B – Shell UI, Gradients & DaisyUI Overrides
- 2.1 Task: Inventory core DaisyUI component usage across the shell (e.g.
Navbar.svelte,/+page.svelte,/games/+page.svelte, shared Button/Card/Modal/Alert) and note any inline classes that may conflict with DaisyUI defaults.- Inventory: Most usage is standard.
app.csscontained the bulk of non-standard overrides.
- Inventory: Most usage is standard.
- 2.2 Task: Review all custom CSS overrides in
frontend/src/app.css(e.g..btn*,.card*,.modal-box,.gaming-container,.gaming-grid, scrollbars) and group them into clearly marked sections: “DaisyUI component overrides” vs “layout-only utilities”.- Status: Done. Reorganized
app.cssinto 3 clean layers.
- Status: Done. Reorganized
- 2.3 Task: For each DaisyUI component override, decide whether to keep, adjust, or remove it; prefer DaisyUI semantic classes (
bg-base-*,text-base-content,btn-primary, etc.) over hard-coded hex colors wherever reasonable.- Status: Removed risky
var(--color-primary)usage in overrides; relying on DaisyUI defaults orcurrentColor.
- Status: Removed risky
- 2.4 Task: Fix any duplicated or overlapping rules (e.g. multiple
.card-interactive:hoverdefinitions) and ensure mobile-specific overrides for.btn,.card, and.modal-boxare coherent and intentional.- Status: Deduped and organized.
- 2.5 Task: Verify the main shell backgrounds and gradients (hero, section backgrounds,
bg-base-100/200,from-primary via-secondary to-accent) look correct and readable underfunday-lightandfunday-dark, adjusting theme tokens or utilities as needed for contrast.- Status: Verified via config review. Gradients use standard theme tokens.
- 2.6 Task: Run the key UI-related Playwright specs (e.g. homepage, games page,
daisyui-styling.spec.ts) and visually confirm that DaisyUI components and custom overrides behave as expected on desktop and mobile.
- 2.1 Task: Inventory core DaisyUI component usage across the shell (e.g.
-
3. Section: Phase C – Game Iframe Theming & Bridge
- 3.1 Task: Trace the theme/locale/session bridge into game iframes (where
data-fundaytheme,data-fundaylocale, anddata-fundaysessionare set) and document the expected contract for game plugins. - 3.2 Task: Define or refine a small, reusable theme adapter for games (mapping theme name → CSS variables or token set) that consumes the same single source of truth used by the shell.
- 3.3 Task: Update at least one reference game (e.g.
networked-snake-multiplayer) to fully respect the active Funday theme for core surfaces (board/background, primary UI, text) using DaisyUI variables and/or gameplay tokens. - 3.4 Task: Extend
frontend/tests/theme-locale-reactive.spec.tsto assert not only thatdata-fundaythemechanges, but that a known element in the iframe actually changes a computed style (e.g. background or text color) when themes switch. - 3.5 Task: Add or refine a visual smoke test that loads a themed game and captures per-theme screenshots, to make theme regressions in games easy to spot during CI.
- 3.1 Task: Trace the theme/locale/session bridge into game iframes (where
-
4. Section: Phase D – Tests, Docs & Cleanup
- 4.1 Task: Strengthen
frontend/tests/daisyui-styling.spec.tsto include checks that key elements respond correctly to theme changes (e.g. light vs dark base surfaces, button/alert contrast) rather than only checking for component presence. - 4.2 Task: Add or update an internal theming reference doc (e.g.
docs/current/cheatsheets/DAISYUI-THEMING.md) describing the theme single source of truth, how to add/modify themes, and how to safely style components and games. - 4.3 Task: Remove any dead CSS or unused components related to deprecated theming patterns (old theme controllers, unused theme IDs, obsolete utilities) to keep the DaisyUI layer lean.
- 4.4 Task: Run the agreed core test suite (at minimum: SvelteKit
npm run check, key e2e specs for shell UI,daisyui-styling.spec.ts, andtheme-locale-reactive.spec.ts), then update this checklist by marking completed tasks with[x]and capturing any follow-up work.

DUMP
Onboarding
1. Mission Snapshot
You are taking over Funday Social System work from a partially-complete implementation. The previous agent has:
- Verified basic behavior visually in production using Playwright MCP.
- Discovered that production is still running an older build (pre-cleanup Social Hub).
Your mission:
- Run /go + /test + /fix to triple-check and harden the social system.
- Ensure the deployed production system matches the repo’s intended behavior.
- Finish with a /pp proof: production screenshot + narrative confirmation.
2. Current State (What’s Implemented in Code)
Identity & Friend Count (Phase A)
- SSOT: Identity SSOT is documented and enforced (docs/02-development/IDENTITY-MANAGEMENT-SSOT.md).
- Profile friend count:
- frontend/src/routes/profile/+page.server.ts
- Uses event.fetch(“/api/social/friends”) (no http://localhost:3000, no funday-session).
- stats.friends = length of returned friends array.
- isFriend computed by comparing targetUserId to friend IDs.
- frontend/src/routes/profile/+page.server.ts
Self-friend-request guard & Add Friend UX
-
Server guard:
- frontend/src/routes/api/social/friends/+server.ts → POST:
- Rejects when body.username === locals.session.username with 400 and message “You cannot send a friend request to yourself”.
- frontend/src/routes/api/social/friends/+server.ts → POST:
-
Profile page guard & UX:
- frontend/src/routes/profile/+page.svelte:
- State: addingFriend = state(false).
- handleAddFriend:
- Guards: no username, isOwnProfile, same displayUser.id vs $user.id, requestSent.
- On success: socialActions.addFriend(displayUser.username) then requestSent = true.
- Button:
- Disabled when addingFriend || requestSent.
- Label: Request Sent vs Add Friend.
- frontend/src/routes/profile/+page.svelte:
-
Friends list search UX:
- frontend/src/lib/components/social/FriendsList.svelte:
- Search panel with debounced /api/social/search.
- sentRequests = $state<Record<string, boolean>>({}).
- handleAddFriend(username):
- No-op if already sent.
- Calls socialActions.addFriend(username), marks sentRequests[username] = true.
- Button label/disable mirrors profile behavior.
- frontend/src/lib/components/social/FriendsList.svelte:
Realtime Social Wiring (Phase B)
-
Client socket helper:
- frontend/src/lib/nakama.ts:
- ensureSocket() creates Nakama JS Socket, connects and places it in a writable store.
- Called on the client at module load as a fire-and-forget, but Social Hub now also uses it explicitly.
- frontend/src/lib/nakama.ts:
-
Social store:
- frontend/src/lib/stores/social.ts:
- socialActions.initialize(socket: Socket | null):
- Stores socket, starts/stops HTTP presence fallback.
- When socket present, binds:
- onchannelmessage → handleIncomingMessage
- onchannelpresence → handlePresenceUpdate
- onstatuspresence → handleStatusPresence
- onnotification → handleNotification
- Loads initial data: loadFriends, loadFriendRequests, loadChatChannels.
- loadFriends():
- Calls /api/social/friends, maps to Friend objects, then socket.followUsers(friendIds) when socket exists.
- Instrumentation added:
- handleStatusPresence: console.log(“social: status presence update”, statusPresence);
- handleNotification: console.log(“social: notification received”, notification);
- socialActions.initialize(socket: Socket | null):
- frontend/src/lib/stores/social.ts:
-
Social Hub page:
- frontend/src/routes/social/+page.svelte:
- Imports ensureSocket and calls initializeSocial() in onMount when $user is truthy.
- initializeSocial:
- Tries ensureSocket() inside inner try/catch.
- On failure: warns and sets socket = null (HTTP-only mode).
- Calls await socialActions.initialize(socket) either way.
- Logs Social features initialized successfully with { hasSocket: !!socket }.
- Connection error UI with Retry button.
- frontend/src/routes/social/+page.svelte:
Mock Data Cleanup & Discover Consolidation (Phase C)
-
Chat mocks removed:
- frontend/src/lib/stores/social.ts:
- loadChatChannels() → chatChannels.set([]).
- loadChannelMessages(channelId) → ensures empty array, no fake messages.
- frontend/src/lib/components/social/Chat.svelte:
- Still functional UI, but uses the now-empty stores.
- frontend/src/lib/stores/social.ts:
-
Discover Players tab removed in code:
- frontend/src/routes/social/+page.svelte:
- Left-nav buttons: Friends, Messages, Activity Feed, Privacy Settings only.
- The entire {:else if activeTab === ‘discover’} block was deleted in repo.
- frontend/src/routes/social/+page.svelte:
-
Discover functionality lives in Friends list:
- FriendsList.svelte:
- Discover button toggles a search panel.
- Hints:
- “Type at least 2 characters to search”
- “No players found” states.
- Search calls /api/social/search?q=…&limit=10.
- FriendsList.svelte:
Search backend
- frontend/src/routes/api/social/search/+server.ts:
- Guards: auth required, q length >= 2, limit ≤ 50.
- Uses NakamaAPI.getClient().getUsers(ms, [], [query]) → username-based search.
- Filters:
- Excludes self.
- Excludes already-friends (via nakama.getFriends).
- Returns { id, username, displayName: u.display_name || u.username, avatarUrl }.
Playwright MCP check (production)
- Playwright MCP navigated to https://funday.gg/social and captured a full-page screenshot.
- Snapshot shows:
- Social Hub header OK.
- Left nav still includes “Discover Players”.
- Friends card shows “Discover Players” button with old copy.
- Console output:
- Unexpected token ’%’ (needs investigation).
- Manifest enctype warning (harmless).
- Performance logs (Lighthouse 100/100).
Conclusion: repo and production are out of sync; production is still on old social build (pre-cleanup), even though fixes are implemented in the code.
3. Your Tasks (Next Agent) — /go with /test + /fix + /pp
A. Sync & Deploy
- Confirm repo state:
- Re-open the files listed above to ensure no regressions.
- Build & deploy the frontend with these social changes to the environment behind https://funday.gg
(follow the project’s usual deploy workflow; avoid violating the “private project” rule).
B. /test — Hyper-efficient E2E Verification
Use Playwright and/or Puppeteer (via MCP or local) to run production E2E:
-
Flows to test:
- Friend count matches between Profile and Social Hub.
- Add Friend from:
- Profile page.
- Friends search.
- Check “Request Sent” behavior and disabled button.
- Self-friend-request:
- Attempt from own profile → rejected client-side + API returns 400.
- Presence:
- Two browsers with two accounts.
- Verify:
- Friends list online/offline flags update in real time.
- social: status presence update logs appear.
- Notifications:
- Send friend request.
- Verify:
- social: notification received logs.
- Toast displays “sent you a friend request”; optional desktop notification.
- Search:
- Ensure Discover UI only inside Friends list.
- Check empty-state messages and behavior for short queries and no results.
- Mock data:
- No fake chat channels/messages visible anywhere.
-
Technical checks:
- Console: ensure no blocking errors remain.
- Investigate and fix Unexpected token ’%’ (likely from some script or JSON parse).
- Network: watch Nakama socket connection and events if possible.
- Console: ensure no blocking errors remain.
C. /fix — Issues to Hunt & Harden
- Production vs repo mismatch:
- Verify that after deploy:
- Discover Players tab is gone in production.
- Social Hub left nav reflects the repo state.
- Verify that after deploy:
- Console Unexpected token ’%’:
- Trace back to script/response causing it.
- Fix root cause (bad JSON, malformed inline script, etc.) and re-test.
- Search by displayName (future-hardening):
- Currently username-based only.
- Optionally design/implement a Nakama-side RPC + index for true displayName search (documented but not implemented yet).
For each fix, follow /fix steps: deep reasoning → implement → re-run relevant tests.
D. /pp — Prove Perfection
Once you are satisfied that production matches expectations:
- Use Playwright MCP (or local Playwright) to capture a production screenshot:
- Target: /social and optionally profile page.
- Copy screenshot as per pp.md:
- cp /tmp/playwright-mcp-output/*/capture.png /home/usr/funday/games/assets/_dev/screenshots/YYYYMMDDhhmm_Social-System_Success.png
- Deliver in chat:
“md

Final verification: Funday Social System (friends/presence/notifications/search/UX) is fully operational in production, aligned with identity SSOT, and free of mock data. Ready for production. ✅ “
4. Final Word to You (Next Agent)
You’re stepping into a codebase where:
- Identity SSOT is solid, and social code is largely aligned with it.
- The key remaining work is verification, deployment alignment, and tiny edge-case fixes.
- You have workflows: /go, /test, /fix, /pp, and a rich docs ecosystem under docs/ and frontend/src/lib/stores.
Please:
- Triple-check everything.
- Treat Playwright/Puppeteer + console logs + screenshots as your truth.
- Only declare /pp when production visually and behaviorally proves the six social priorities.
Funday Social – Current Fixes & Next Steps
What’s already done (this session)
-
Identity diagnostics
- App.Locals now has
identitySource: "nakama" | "local_fallback". - hooks.server.ts:
- Sets
identitySourcewhen loading fromfunday-identitycookie. - Sets
identitySource = "nakama"for real guest sessions. - Sets
identitySource = "local_fallback"when Nakama auth fails.
- Sets
- +layout.server.ts exposes
identitySourcein layout data.
- App.Locals now has
-
Social API guarding (Plan Step 2)
- All
/api/social/*endpoints now short-circuit whenidentitySource === "local_fallback":- Return:
503with{ error: "Social services temporarily offline", offline: true }.
- Return:
- Endpoints updated:
- /api/social/friends (GET/POST/DELETE/PATCH)
- /api/social/activity (GET)
- /api/social/presence (GET)
- /api/social/search (GET)
- All
-
Frontend offline handling
- socialActions.loadFriends():
- Interprets
offline: truefrom /api/social/friends. - Sets
socialError = "Social services temporarily offline"and stops.
- Interprets
- socialActions.addFriend():
- Interprets the same offline flag and surfaces
socialError.
- Interprets the same offline flag and surfaces
- socialActions.refreshPresence():
- Interprets offline flag from /api/social/presence and logs a warning instead of crashing.
- FriendsList.svelte already shows
$socialErrorin a red alert at the top, so the user sees a clear offline banner when backend social is unavailable.
- socialActions.loadFriends():
Still TO DO (for you)
-
Root-cause Nakama reachability (avoid local_fallback)
- Inspect logs from hooks.server.ts:
- Look for
Nakama guest auth failed, creating local fallback.
- Look for
- Verify Nakama service from the frontend pod:
- Confirm host/port/SSL (matches
NakamaAPIconfig).
- Confirm host/port/SSL (matches
- Fix infra/env so most sessions use
identitySource = "nakama".
- Inspect logs from hooks.server.ts:
-
Unify ensure-session with consolidated identity
src/routes/api/auth/ensure-session/+server.tsstill uses legacyfunday-session/funday-user.- Update it to:
- Write
funday-identityin the same shape as hooks.server.ts. - Set
identitySource: "nakama" | "local_fallback".
- Write
- Goal: one single identity model regardless of entrypoint (games vs web).
-
Fix
%PUBLIC_NAKAMA_*%error- src/app.html still has inline script with
%PUBLIC_NAKAMA_HOST%etc. - Replace this with a SvelteKit-native env approach:
- Create
src/lib/config/public.tsusing$env/static/public. - In root layout onMount, set
window.__FUNDAY_CONFIG__based on that. - Remove the
%...%script from app.html and rebuild.
- Create
- Confirm that “Unexpected token ’%’” disappears from console.
- src/app.html still has inline script with
-
Deploy + verification + proof (
pp)- Rebuild frontend and deploy following Environment Sync & Deployment Protocol.
- Use Playwright / Puppeteer on
https://funday.gg/socialto:- Verify:
- Correct nav (no “Discover Players” tab).
- Friends, requests, search, presence, notifications behave correctly on a real Nakama identity.
- Offline state appears only when we intentionally simulate Nakama outage.
- Verify:
- Then run the
ppworkflow:- See /home/usr/funday/.windsurf/workflows/pp.md for the PERFECTION protocol.
- Capture a production screenshot (Social Hub + working flows).
- Copy to
games/assets/_dev/screenshots/as per naming convention. - Post the final Markdown block with
!Mission Completeand a one-line summary.
Until those steps are done, consider Social “architecturally ready + behaviorally guarded”, but not yet fully proven in production.
summary (/ys):
identity_diag:
- Added identitySource typing in App.Locals and hooked it through hooks.server.ts + layout load.
- Consolidated cookie now carries identitySource ("nakama" | "local_fallback") and logs include it.
- Layout data exposes identitySource so UI/tests can see whether session is real or fallback.
social_state:
- Existing repo Social Hub already aligned with SSOT (friends API, guards, sockets, mock removal).
- Production still on older build (discover tab visible); deployment sync pending.
- Console still throws `Unexpected token '%'` from app.html placeholder script.
outstanding:
- Social APIs/UI still treat fallback sessions like real ones (needs guard/offline mode).
- ensure-session endpoint still issues legacy cookies; not yet unified with consolidated identity.
- Deployment + verification + proof steps untouched this session.
plan (/yp):
- guard_social_offline:
description: Detect `identitySource === "local_fallback"` in API routes (/api/social/*) and return clear “backend offline” responses; front-end should show an offline banner instead of half-working UI.
steps:
1. Update social API handlers (friends, presence, activity, search) to short-circuit when locals.identitySource !== "nakama".
2. In social store/page, read layout’s identitySource and render an “offline social” state plus console warning.
3. Add regression test (Playwright or unit) ensuring fallback identity cannot send friend requests.
- unify_session_paths:
description: Make `/api/auth/ensure-session` reuse the consolidated cookie format + set identitySource, so all session creation paths behave identically.
steps: 1. Replace legacy funday-session/funday-user writes with funday-identity payload.
2. Ensure Redis cache + locals are updated consistently.
3. Log metrics (guestSessionCreated) with source labels for observability.
- fix_percent_error:
description: Remove `%PUBLIC_NAKAMA_*%` script in app.html, replace with SvelteKit env-driven `window.__FUNDAY_CONFIG__`.
steps: 1. Create `src/lib/config/public.ts` reading `$env/static/public`.
2. In root layout onMount, set `window.__FUNDAY_CONFIG__ = config`.
3. Delete the inline script from app.html and rebuild to confirm console clean.
- deploy_and_verify:
description: Build frontend (adapter-node) and restart `funday-frontend.service`, then run full `/test` matrix.
steps: 1. `npm run build` in frontend, deploy via systemd path.
2. Use Playwright MCP to re-check /social (nav, discover removal, friend flows).
3. Capture screenshot + narrative `/pp`.I didn’t have time to run Steps 2–4 above in this session, so production still shows the outdated Social Hub and the % console error; please treat those as the immediate follow-ups.

🧭 Next Agent Onboarding – Presence / “Offline” Bug + Connect4 PvP + Flaws Scan
Speaking directly to you, next agent.
Your mission is to run /shine and /flaws on this project with a very specific context.
1️⃣ Context Echo (what you’re solving)
context: >
Funday gaming platform (SvelteKit + Nakama): figure out why players appear
OFFLINE in social/presence ("sizial") UIs even when actually online,
and how this ties into Connect4 PvP & other Nakama-based matches
(match labels, presence, session-token bridge, iframe games, plugin assets).
goals:
- Build deep cheat-sheet-level overstanding of identity + presence + PvP flows
- Map and explain all causes of "online but shown offline" in this codebase
- Forensically sniff flaws (architecture, bugs, smells) and output a rescue blueprint
workflows_to_use:
- /shine
- /flaws2️⃣ Systems You MUST First
Use these as anchors for your /shine deep-dive and /flaws static analysis:
-
Funday Identity & Sessions (SSOT)
- Single cookie:
funday-identity→deviceId+session(Nakama JWT + userId/username) +user(username/displayName/avatar). - Source: see identity docs in
docs/02-development/IDENTITY-*.md(per memory), and code in:frontend/src/hooks.server.tsfrontend/src/lib/server/identityCookieHelper.ts(or similarly named helper)frontend/src/lib/auth/*.tsor similar
- Memory used: Guest-First Authentication Pattern + Funday Identity Management - Single Source of Truth.
- Single cookie:
-
Presence / “Online vs Offline” Semantics
- Likely tied to:
- Nakama presence (WebSockets, heartbeats, matches/channels).
- Our own “social / sizial” UI that displays who’s online/offline.
- You must map: what the UI calls “online” vs what Nakama / backend considers “present”.
- Likely tied to:
-
Game Plugin / Match Architecture
- Filesystem plugin system:
- Real games under
frontend/static/game-plugins/*and/game-pluginssymlinks. - API:
frontend/src/routes/api/games/+server.ts.
- Real games under
- Matchmaking + Nakama:
- Core modules in
/nakama-modules/(TS + Lua). - Example:
nakama-modules/connect4_match.lua, nakama-modules/racing_match.lua,nakama-modules/index.tsRPCs.
- Core modules in
- Filesystem plugin system:
-
Connect4 PvP Critical Path
- High-level mission doc: 00_PRT_drawer-nakama-matches.md (already open).
- Relevant files:
frontend/src/lib/components/games/GameDrawer.svelte
(match drawer: listing, join, session-token postMessage into iframe).games/connect4/index.html
(iframe game, uses Nakama JS SDK & session-token from parent).frontend/src/routes/play/[id]/+page.server.ts
(cache-busting of game HTML, param versioning)./nakama-modules/connect4_match.lua
(authoritative match; label encodes game/open/players/creator info)./nakama-modules/index.ts
(find_match_v3etc – builds label, passes creator info).
- Memory used: Connect4 Multiplayer Complete Fix.
-
Racing / Other Matches as Patterns
- Open now: nakama-modules/racing_match.lua – lightweight authoritative lobby:
- Manual JSON
json_encode,count_players,broadcast_state. - Good reference for how labels & state are exposed to clients.
- Manual JSON
- Open now: nakama-modules/racing_match.lua – lightweight authoritative lobby:
-
Frontend Tech Stack
- SvelteKit 2 + Svelte 5, Tailwind 4 + DaisyUI 5.
- Svelte MCP server is available – must use it for Svelte code (per rules).
- Memory used: Funday Gaming Platform Tech Stack.
-
Infra / Ops Constraints
- Frontend runs via systemd (
funday-frontend.service), not Docker. - This is a private project on a private server – never push/publish to GitHub or external repos.
- Frontend runs via systemd (
3️⃣ How to Run /shine for Maximum Value
When you invoke /shine, set:
context: >
Funday presence / online-state and social ("sizial") UI, Connect4 PvP
match lifecycle (listing → join → game iframe), Nakama matches (Lua/TS),
identity SSOT (funday-identity cookie), and how all this produces cases
where users are actually online/playing but rendered as OFFLINE in UIs.Your /shine deliverable should be:
-
An ultra-condensed cheat sheet (markdown) explaining:
- Identity flow: browser ⇄
funday-identity⇄ hooks ⇄ Nakama session. - Presence flow: WebSocket / match presence / labels → any “friends/online” or “players in lobby” lists.
- Connect4 PvP flow end-to-end:
- GameDrawer → RPC (
find_match_v3) → Nakama match creation/join → iframe load → session-token handoff → Nakama JS SDK connect → game start.
- GameDrawer → RPC (
- Offline-but-online scenarios specific to this codebase (not just theory):
- Where presence/labels are computed.
- Where lists are read (drawer, social/sizial UI, in-game lobby, etc.).
- Where caching, heartbeats, or identity mismatch might cause stale “offline”.
- Identity flow: browser ⇄
-
Use web + Nakama docs MCP + Svelte MCP + context7 to:
- Refresh latest best practices on presence models (Nakama, game backends).
- Compare our flows vs recommended patterns (presence streams, heartbeats, labels).
4️⃣ How to Run /flaws (Static Forensic Sweep)
The /flaws workflow is already parameterized:
source: "*"
output: "docs/2Fix_FLAWS.md"When you execute /flaws, focus your forensic lens especially on:
-
Identity / Presence
- Any divergence from the SSOT rules (Nakama updated but cookie not, or vice versa).
- Multiple identity keys used inconsistently (
userId,username, guest IDs, device IDs). - Any direct usage of
funday-session,funday-user, or old cookies (should be consolidated).
-
PvP / Match Flows
nakama-modules/index.tsRPCs – especiallyfind_match_v3, any Connect4- / racing-related RPCs.- Lua matches:
connect4_match.lua- racing_match.lua
- Others under
/nakama-modules/that emit labels or state.
- Frontend match UI:
GameDrawer.svelte- Any “friends/online” / “social/sizial” components or stores.
-
Games Assets & Bridge
frontend/src/routes/games/assets/[...path]/+server.ts(just touched).games/connect4/index.html(Nakama JS SDK load order, token handling, reconnection)./games/assets/_sdk/funday-nakama.jsand any CDN usage.
Your docs/2Fix_FLAWS.md should follow the /flaws spec:
- 🎯 Briefing – Intent + top flaws + first concrete fix.
- 💔 Reality Map – Tree/flows/heatmap; where presence & matches actually flow.
- 🐛 Flaw Forensics – Root causes, security/perf/debt.
- ✨ Potential & Salvage – What’s good and reusable.
- 🛠️ Rescue Blueprint – Phased tasks (MVP now, later polish).
- 📊 Visuals – 3–4 Mermaid diagrams:
- Presence & identity flow.
- Connect4 PvP flow.
- Flaw heatmap.
- Revamp roadmap.
5️⃣ Suggested Execution Order (Checklist)
For you, next agent:
- Skim these key files/docs:
- 00_PRT_drawer-nakama-matches.md
/nakama-modules/index.ts/nakama-modules/connect4_match.lua- /nakama-modules/racing_match.lua
frontend/src/lib/components/games/GameDrawer.sveltegames/connect4/index.html- Identity docs under
docs/02-development/IDENTITY-*.md
- Run
/shinewith the context above, produce cheat-sheet markdown. - Run
/flawsover the repo, writedocs/2Fix_FLAWS.mdwith Mermaids + phased plan. - From your
/shine+/flawsoutputs, design a concrete set of next coding tasks:- Fix presence/online-state mismatches.
- Harden Connect4 PVP start + reconnection + iframe bridge.
- Align all match labels & lists with a consistent presence model.
6️⃣ Status From This Agent
- I did not modify any code for this step.
- I relied on the following memories:
- Connect4 Multiplayer Complete Fix
- Guest-First Authentication Pattern
- Funday Gaming Platform Tech Stack
- Plugin System Architecture
- Funday Identity Management – Single Source of Truth
- Your job is now to go deep with
/shineand then tear the flaws apart with/flaws, turning everything into a precise rescue blueprint.
Task List
-
1. Social Chat UX
- 1.1 Fix social.ts Chat Management block:
- Restore a valid loadChatChannels body (no-op + error logging).
- Refactor sendMessage(channelId, content) to:
- Always append an optimistic ChatMessage (with current user’s displayName/avatar).
- Call updateChannelLastMessage(channelId, message).
- Send via socket if available; otherwise just keep local history.
- Ensure loadChannelMessages uses normalizeChatContent and updates
lastMessage.
- 1.2 Update handleIncomingMessage:
- Enrich from
friendsfordisplayName/avatarUrl. - Use normalizeChatContent to avoid
[object Object]. - Update
chatMessagesand updateChannelLastMessage. - Preserve unread counter behavior from the original implementation.
- Enrich from
- 1.3 Confirm Chat.svelte channel list shows last message snippet instead of
No messages yetwhenever messages exist.
- 1.1 Fix social.ts Chat Management block:
-
2. Avatars in all chats
- 2.1 Verify
/api/chat/roomenrichment (username,displayName,avatarUrl) is used by:/chatpage.- GameDrawer lobby/match chat.
- 2.2 Ensure social DM history + realtime messages always populate
displayNameandavatarUrl(friends-based first, fallback to Nakama message fields). - 2.3 Confirm Avatar components across social/global/lobby chats all use
avatarUrlfrom Nakama.
- 2.1 Verify
-
3. Friends count & buttons (Profile vs Social)
- 3.1 On
/profileclient:- Call socialActions.loadFriends() on mount if not already loaded.
- Compute
friendCount = $friends.length || data.stats.friends || 0. - Compute
isFriendfrom$friendsonly (some(f.id === displayUser.id)).
- 3.2 Ensure “Add Friend” button:
- Is disabled while request in-flight.
- Switches to “Message” as soon as the request is accepted and the friends store updates.
- 3.3 Verify
/profileand/sozialshow identical friend counts after any friend action.
- 3.1 On
-
4. Profile self vs others
- 4.1 Avatar label:
- Use
$displayTextonly for own profile. - Use
displayUser.displayName || displayUser.usernamefor other users.
- Use
- 4.2 Hide session debug card when viewing someone else’s profile (
isOwnProfile && currentSession). - 4.3 Review bottom sections for any other “own account only” info and guard them with
isOwnProfile.
- 4.1 Avatar label:
-
5. Profile Recent Activity integration
- 5.1 In +page.server.ts, keep leaderboard loop strictly for
stats.gamesPlayedandstats.playTime. - 5.2 After stats, call
/api/social/activityand setactivity = data.activity || []. - 5.3 Update +page.svelte Recent Activity rendering to primarily use:
item.title/item.description(from/api/social/activity).- Fallback to legacy leaderboard display if needed.
- 5.4 Confirm friend adds and games played appear as “Recent Activity” on profile, matching Social Hub.
- 5.1 In +page.server.ts, keep leaderboard loop strictly for
-
6. Notifications & toasts
- 6.1 Review social.ts.handleNotification and map:
- Friend request → primary/info toast variant.
- Friend accept → success.
- Match invite → warning/accent.
- Generic → neutral/info.
- 6.2 Ensure toast component visually reflects variants with distinct colors via DaisyUI.
- 6.3 Verify that:
- Friend requests/accepts.
- Match invites.
- Other social notifications all produce appropriate toasts and (where applicable) background notifications.
- 6.1 Review social.ts.handleNotification and map:
-
7. Game lobby chat
- 7.1 In GameDrawer.svelte:
- Ensure
loadChat()obtains a valid Nakama socket (or clearly falls back to HTTP polling) before callingjoinChat. - Keep
socket.onchatmessagescoped so it doesn’t conflict with other socket handlers.
- Ensure
- 7.2 Confirm:
- History loads via
/api/chat/room. - New messages appear immediately via WebSocket.
- Avatars/names are consistent with Nakama profiles.
- History loads via
- 7.3 Add a minimal guard/logging if joinChat fails so failures are visible in console.
- 7.1 In GameDrawer.svelte:
-
8. Global
/chat- 8.1 Validate
globalRoom('general')output vs assertRoomName expectations. - 8.2 Inspect
/api/chat/roomresponses in browser devtools when/chatloads/sends:- Fix any 4xx/5xx (e.g., invalid name, session issue).
- 8.3 Optionally (later): plan migration of
/chatto share the realtime socket used by Social to make it feel more instant.
- 8.1 Validate
-
9. Regression/cleanup
-
9.1 Ensure social.ts exposes all methods referenced in initialize:
- startPresenceFallback, stopPresenceFallback, handlePresenceUpdate, handleStatusPresence, handleNotification, loadInitialNotifications, refreshProfilesForChat, disconnect, clearError.
-
9.2 Run TypeScript build to confirm no lints/errors remain in social.ts and related social components.
-
9.3 Basic manual pass:
/sozialfriends + chat./profileself and another user./chat.- Game lobby chat via
GameDrawer.
Onboarding Prompt for Next Agent – Social/Profile/Chat Fixes
-
You’re taking over work on Funday’s social/profile/chat system. This is a SvelteKit (Svelte 5 + runes) frontend talking to Nakama via custom APIs. The goal: make social UX seamless and consistent across Profile, Social Hub, global /chat, and game lobby chat.
1. High-Level Context
-
Core features involved
- Friends system (
/sozial+ social widget) - User profile (
/profile?userId=...) - Social DM/chat widget (bottom-right bubble on Social page)
- Global chat (
/chat) - Game lobby/match chat (GameDrawer in-game sidebar)
- Notifications/toasts for social events (friend requests, accepts, match invites, etc.)
- Friends system (
-
Key requirement
- Single source of truth for:
- Friend list & counts →
friendsstore (social.ts) //api/social/friends. - Avatars & names → Nakama user profiles (
avatar_url,display_name,username). - Activity feed →
/api/social/activity(Nakama storage"user_activity").
- Friend list & counts →
- Single source of truth for:
-
Main user pain points
- Avatars not matching Nakama (missing avatar URL / default labels) in chats.
- Social widget “Messages” list: shows
"No messages yet"even when there are messages; preview/count inconsistent. /profilefriend count differs from/sozial; friend button sometimes only updates after clicking again.- Profile UX doesn’t clearly change between “my profile” vs “someone else’s”.
- Profile “Recent Activity” not showing new friends/games, only a static “No activity yet”.
- Notifications should be toast-based, with clear color per event type.
- Global
/chatand game lobby chat “used to work” but currently feel broken or unreliable.
2. Important Files & How They Interact
Social / Friends / Chat Store
-
frontend/src/lib/stores/social.ts
- Exports:
friends,friendRequests,chatChannels,chatMessages,activeChatChannel,socialSocket,socialLoading,socialError.- Derived:
onlineFriends,offlineFriends,pendingFriendRequests,activeChatMessages,totalUnreadMessages. socialActionswith methods:- initialize(socket): wires Nakama socket → sets onchannelmessage, onchannelpresence, onstatuspresence, onnotification, loads friends/requests/chat channels/notifications, refreshes profiles for chat.
- Friend management: loadFriends, addFriend, removeFriend, blockFriend, loadFriendRequests, acceptFriendRequest, declineFriendRequest.
- Chat:
- Currently mid-refactor and inconsistent – see “Current state” below.
- Notifications: handleNotification maps Nakama notifications into
toastActions.*+ background notifications. - Presence: refreshPresence, startPresenceFallback, stopPresenceFallback.
- Utility: clearError, disconnect.
- Exports:
-
Current state (important)
- We introduced:
- normalizeChatContent(raw) helper at bottom.
- updateChannelLastMessage(channelId, last) helper.
- handleIncomingMessage now:
- Uses
friendsstore to enrichdisplayNameandavatarUrl. - Uses normalizeChatContent to avoid
[object Object]. - Updates
chatMessages[channelId]and updateChannelLastMessage.
- Uses
- BUT the “Chat Management” block around loadChatChannels / sendMessage / loadChannelMessages was partially patched and is syntactically inconsistent with the original version:
- loadChatChannels body is incomplete.
- sendMessage and loadChannelMessages are now tightly coupled to Nakama
listChannelMessagesand updateChannelLastMessage, but need cleanup so TypeScript compiles and semantics are correct.
- Also, refreshProfilesForChat exists (from HEAD); it reloads friends and rewrites
chatMessagesto add currentdisplayName/avatarUrl.
- We introduced:
Social Hub & Chat Components
-
Social Hub page – frontend/src/routes/social/+page.svelte
- On mount:
- If
$user, callsinitializeSocial()which:ensureSocket()→ tries to connect a Nakama socket, falls back to HTTP-only mode if it fails.- Calls socialActions.initialize(socket) to wire listeners and load base data.
- Calls
loadActivity()from/api/social/activity.
- If
- Left column:
- Social navigation.
- “Your Social Stats”, showing
$friends.lengthand$onlineFriends.length.
- Right column:
- Tabs:
friends,chat,activity,settings. - Currently the “Messages” tab only shows a placeholder card; does not yet embed the Chat.svelte widget there.
- Tabs:
- Chat widget (floating bubble bottom-right) only renders when
$user && $socialSocket.
- On mount:
-
Social chat widget – frontend/src/lib/components/social/Chat.svelte
- Uses
chatChannels,activeChatMessages,totalUnreadMessages,socialActions,socialSocket,activeChatChannel. - Channel list (when no active channel):
- Shows each
$chatChannelsentry with:- Icon (emoji).
- Channel name.
channel.lastMessage?.timestampfor time.channel.lastMessage?.contentpreview; else"No messages yet".
- Shows each
- Active chat:
- Uses
$activeChatMessages. - Renders avatars with
message.avatarUrlandmessage.displayName || message.senderUsername.
- Uses
- Implication: For “Messages” list to show something other than “No messages yet”, you must:
- Populate
chatChannelswithlastMessage. - Keep
lastMessageupdated on history load + every new message.
- Populate
- Uses
-
Generic chat window – frontend/src/lib/components/social/ChatWindow.svelte
- More generic multi-user chat component (used elsewhere).
- Uses
Avatarwithmessage.avataranduser.avatar. - Good reference for how avatar/name/time layout should look.
Profile
-
Profile server load – frontend/src/routes/profile/+page.server.ts
- Input:
userIdquery param; falls back tolocals.session.userId.isOwnProfile = targetUserId === locals.session.userId.
- Behavior:
- Fetches Nakama user profile for
targetUserId→ buildsprofileUserobject withid,username,displayName,avatarUrl,createdAt,lastSeen. - Fetches leaderboards and aggregates:
stats.gamesPlayed(count of leaderboards where the user has a record).stats.playTime(score sum / 60 as “hours”).- Forms a simple
activitylist with type"leaderboard",leaderboard,score,rank,timestampbased on leaderboard records.
- Fetches
/api/social/friends:stats.friends = friendsList.length.- If viewing someone else’s profile (
!isOwnProfile && targetUserId), tries to see if that user is infriendsList→ setsisFriendand enrichesprofileUser.status+lastSeen.
- Fetches Nakama user profile for
- Return to client:
{ user: profileUser ?? locals.user, session, stats, activity, isFriend, isOwnProfile }.
- Input:
-
Profile page (client) – frontend/src/routes/profile/+page.svelte
-
Uses Svelte 5 runes.
-
Current key logic:
let { data }: { data: PageData } = $props() let currentSession: NakamaSession | null = $state(null) session.subscribe((s) => (currentSession = s)) let displayUser: User | null = $derived(data?.user || $user || null) let isOwnProfile = $derived(data?.isOwnProfile ?? false) let isFriend = $derived(!!(displayUser && $friends.some((f) => f.id === displayUser.id))) let friendCount = $derived($friends.length || data.stats?.friends || 0) onMount(() => { // Ensure social store is hydrated so profile counts/buttons stay in sync socialActions.loadFriends().catch(() => {}) }) -
Header:
- Avatar presently uses:
<Avatar src={displayUser?.avatarUrl} name={isOwnProfile ? $displayText : displayUser?.displayName || displayUser?.username || 'Player'} size="xl" ring /> - For own profile:
DisplayNameEditor+ handle. - For others: static heading with
displayUser.displayNameorusername.

Friends – frontend/src/routes/api/social/friends/+server.ts
- GET returns
{ friends, requests }(withavatarUrl,displayName,status, etc.). - POST sends friend request by username and appends
"friend"activity to Nakama storage (user_activity). - PATCH handles block/unblock/accept/decline, and on accept also appends
"friend"activity.
- GET returns
-
Activity – frontend/src/routes/api/social/activity/+server.ts
- Reads
user_activitystorage entry for the current user. - Returns

Chat (room) – frontend/src/routes/api/chat/room/+server.ts
- GET:

3. Current Issues & Likely Root Causes
-
Messages list always says “No messages yet”
- Because
ChatChannel.lastMessageis rarely set. - Need to:
- Create DM channels with
lastMessageafter history load or message send. - On every incoming message (handleIncomingMessage), call updateChannelLastMessage.
- Create DM channels with
- Because
-
Avatars sometimes wrong/missing in chats
- For social DM: depends on
displayName/avatarUrlbeing set in ChatMessage. - We added normalizeChatContent and partial avatar enrichment but must:
- Ensure loadChannelMessages from DM and from room chats sets
displayName/avatarUrlcorrectly. - Ensure handleIncomingMessage uses
friendsdata or Nakama message data consistently.
- Ensure loadChannelMessages from DM and from room chats sets
- For social DM: depends on
-
Profile vs Social Hub friend count mismatch
Profilenow uses store, but only after socialActions.loadFriends() finishes.- On direct
/profilevisits, there may be a short window where$friendsis empty (0) even though/sozialwould show a correct count once initialized. - This is acceptable if short-lived, but ideally:
- Show server
stats.friendsuntil store hydrates (currentfriendCountalready uses$friends.length || stats.friends).
- Show server
- Ensure loadFriends resolves quickly and does not get blocked by errors.
-
Friend button not instantly updating
- socialActions.addFriend reloads friends and requests;
isFriendnow computed from store. - Need to confirm:
- Accept flow: when user accepts,
friendsreload andisFriendflips to true. - Possibly still relying on server
isFriendin some flows – ensure UI solely uses store.
- Accept flow: when user accepts,
- socialActions.addFriend reloads friends and requests;
-
Profile self vs others
- Avatar label + session debug have been updated, but:
- Confirm no other own-only info leaks into other profiles (e.g., email maybe should be hidden for other users, depending on UX decision).
- Avatar label + session debug have been updated, but:
-
Profile Recent Activity not showing social events/games
- Server load still constructs
activityfrom leaderboard stats instead of/api/social/activity. - Need to plug
/api/social/activityinto profile load, and adjust rendering.
- Server load still constructs
-
Notifications/toasts color-coding
- handleNotification already uses
toastActions.info/success, but the visual mapping to DaisyUI styles might not be clearly distinguished. - Likely requires checking toast component implementation and ensuring variant->class mapping is correct.
- handleNotification already uses
-
Game lobby chat & global chat regressions
- Game lobby:
- Potential issues with
socketavailability,joinChatfailures, or inconsistent message shapes between WebSocket and HTTP history.
- Potential issues with
- Global chat:
- Must validate
/api/chat/roomwithglobalRoom('general')output; any HTTP errors would break/chat.
- Must validate
- Game lobby:
4. Recommended Next Steps for You
-
Stabilize social.ts Chat Management
- Compare current social.ts with
git show HEAD:frontend/src/lib/stores/social.ts. - Reconstruct Chat Management section so it is:
- TypeScript-compilable.
- Uses normalizeChatContent and updateChannelLastMessage.
- Keeps behavior of:
- Optimistic append on send.
- Proper DM handling (sendDirectMessage, loadDirectMessages, openDirectMessage).
- Channel history loading (loadChannelMessages + loadChatChannels).
- Confirm handleIncomingMessage:
- Enriches
displayName/avatarUrl. - Normalizes content.
- Updates
lastMessageandunreadCount.
- Enriches
- Compare current social.ts with
-
Wire channel previews
- Ensure:
- After openDirectMessage,
chatChannelsincludes that channel andlastMessageis set after history load. - On every incoming or sent DM, updateChannelLastMessage runs.
- After openDirectMessage,
- Then check Chat.svelte: the “Messages” list should show last message text + timestamp, not “No messages yet”.
- Ensure:
-
Finish Profile–Social consistency
- Verify the on-mount socialActions.loadFriends() on
/profileand the derivedisFriend/friendCount. - Add any missing guards or spinners so user doesn’t see a long-lived 0 count.
- Verify the on-mount socialActions.loadFriends() on
-
Plug
/api/social/activityinto Profile- In +page.server.ts, call
/api/social/activityand replaceactivitywith itsactivityarray (keeping leaderboard-only stats just forstats.gamesPlayed/playTime). - Update profile
Recent Activitymarkup to prioritizeitem.title/item.description.
- In +page.server.ts, call
-
Notifications & toasts
- Inspect
toastcomponent andtoastActionsto ensure variants map to distinct DaisyUI classes. - Adjust handleNotification to use appropriate variants per event type.
- Inspect
-
Game lobby &
/chatdebugging- Use browser devtools (network + console) and logs from
/api/chat/roomto see exact errors. - Fix any room-name/session issues; ensure
ensureGuestSessionand assertRoomName are aligned. - If time permits, consider unifying
/chatand social socket usage for better UX.
- Use browser devtools (network + console) and logs from
5. How to Work Efficiently
- Always cross-check with HEAD when editing social.ts. It’s central and easy to break; use
git showorgit diffto ensure structure stays sane. - Lean on existing helpers:
- renderChatContent for any view that might receive object-shaped Nakama content.
- normalizeChatContent for store-level normalization.
/api/social/activityfor activity; don’t reinvent it in profile.
- Respect Svelte 5 runes:
- State:
$state. - Derived state:
$derived. - Effects:
$effect. - Use standard HTML
onclicketc., noton:click.
- State:
If you follow this map, you’ll quickly get to a point where:
- Social widget channel list previews are accurate.
- Avatars/names are consistent everywhere.
- Profile and Social Hub stay in lockstep.
- Activity feed and notifications actually tell the user what’s happening.

🟡 NEW MEDIUM ISSUES
[∙] I15-I19: Game Containment Tech Debt - DEFERRED 📅
Status: DEFERRED - Architecture improvements for future sprint
Summary:

Note: Non-critical test/script files remain; Option B implemented
[x] I23: Namespace Rule - VERIFIED ✅
Status: VERIFIED - nakama namespace does NOT exist
Rule: All resources in funday-platform namespace only
📝 NOTES
- Frontend runs as systemd service, NOT K8s pod
- K8s DNS names (*.svc.cluster.local) don’t resolve from host
- NodePort 30177 is the reliable way to reach Nakama from host
- TLS secret
funday-tls-certis the ONLY valid one - Database is in
postgresqlnamespace, NOTfunday-platform - Redis is in
redisnamespace atredis-master:6379

Task List — Ongoing Cleanup & Verification
Scope: Post–PIMP:UI maintenance: verify claimed work, close gaps, keep platform/registry/docs honest.
Source of truth for game inventory:docs/game-completion-matrix.md(78 dirs; 0 unregistered per 2026-04-15 scan).
Design tokens entry:frontend/src/app.css(@theme+--spacing-*/--space-*).
Reminder: Private repo — no public pushes; user runs E2E/API tests locally to control cost.
Task List
-
1. Section: Workspace & search hygiene
- 1.1 Task: Confirm
.gitignore/ optional.cursorignoreexclude heavy non-source trees (e.g..kubecache under home, largenode_modulesduplicates) so agents/IDE indexfunday/only where needed — triple-check paths so real assets are not ignored. ✅ 2026-04-20: Verified —frontend/.svelte-kit/(675MB),**/node_modules/,test-results/,games/**/.svelte-kit/,dist/,build/all excluded..kube/is outside project tree. No.cursorignoreneeded (Cascade uses .gitignore). - 1.2 Task: Prune stale root-level artifacts (
tmp/,test-results/, stray logs) per team policy; never deletebackups/without explicit approval. ✅ 2026-04-15: 30+ files →obsolete/, 85MB log truncated, 66MB stale build removed.
- 1.1 Task: Confirm
-
2. Section: Design tokens — verify adoption (not just presence)
- 2.1 Task: Audit
frontend/src/app.css@theme/ CSS variables against DaisyUI 5 + Tailwind 4 usage; list any duplicate or dead--*vars — remove or document one source of truth. ✅ 2026-04-15: 38+ refs, zero dead tokens, all families consumed. - 2.2 Task: Sample high-traffic components (
frontend/src/lib/components/layout/*,frontend/src/routes/+page.svelte, play route shell) for raw pixel/radius values; migrate to existing tokens or extend@themeonce — avoid one-off numbers. ✅ 2026-04-20: Audited all layout/, +page.svelte, play/[id]/. Findings: 1px borders = CSS primitives; 44-48px = WCAG 2.5.8 touch targets (intentional); blur/shadow px = component-specific effects; play route already usesvar(--nav-h, 64px)/var(--dock-h, 0px)CSS vars. No actionable raw values to migrate.
- 2.1 Task: Audit
-
3. Section: Inline styles & shell duplication
- 3.1 Task: Grep
style=infrontend/src/routesandfrontend/src/lib/components(skip generated); replace user-facing inline styles with utilities + tokens — triple-check visual parity in light/dark. ✅ 2026-04-15: 71 total, ALL dynamic runtime values — 0 replaceable. - 3.2 Task: Identify repeated page/shell wrappers; consolidate toward shared patterns (e.g.
PageWrapperor layout slots) without breaking route-specific SEO/metadata. ✅ 2026-04-20: Audited all routes. Found 4 existing patterns: root layout (min-h-screen bg-base-100), dev layout (dev chrome),gaming-containerutility (games/profile/settings), auth center (min-h-screen flex items-center justify-center). Each page has unique max-width/padding/bg requirements — a generic PageWrapper would over-abstract and break SEO metadata flexibility. Current layering is correct.
- 3.1 Task: Grep
-
4. Section: Perf-UX — regression pass
- 4.1 Task: Spot-check list/detail/play flows for spinner-vs-skeleton consistency (
GameDrawer, games catalog, profile); align with DaisyUIskeletonwhere loading is structural. ✅ 2026-04-15: GameCardSkeleton + DaisyUI skeleton consistent. - 4.2 Task: Review hero/marketing sections for stacked motion; reduce or gate
prefers-reduced-motionif not already. ✅ 2026-04-15: Added guards to HeroSpotlight, ThemeSwitcher, ErrorBoundary. - 4.3 Task: Audit keyboard handlers on carousels/sliders; ensure focus trap or arrow keys only when the widget is focused — avoid global key theft. ✅ 2026-04-20: Audited HeroSpotlight (role=application + tabindex + scoped onkeydown), GameCarousel (no keyboard), GameDock (button-based), GamePillStrip (tablist), ColorSlider (native range), ColorPalette (guarded by open flag), CommandPalette (Cmd+K standard), InviteDropdown (Escape only). No global key theft — all handlers properly scoped to focused widgets.
- 4.1 Task: Spot-check list/detail/play flows for spinner-vs-skeleton consistency (
-
5. Section: Game registry & matrix truth
- 5.1 Task: Re-scan games/* — verified 2026-04-15: 78 dirs, 32 prod + 11 partial + 27 FE-only + 8 scaffold + 0 unregistered. Matrix date updated.
- 5.2 Task: Triage Unregistered / Incomplete rows: for each — (a) add
funday-plugin.json+ wire handler, (b) hide from prod catalog, or (c) move togames/_archive/obsolete/with README note — do not bulk-delete without review. ✅ 2026-04-20: 10/11 partial games have status=development (hidden from catalog). Pipes is available with working index.html. 0 unregistered. No action needed. - 5.3 Task: Spot-check Partial games with missing entry HTML (e.g.
battle-cards,turtle-cards): document build/embed path or one-line “blocked on X” in matrix Notes. ✅ 2026-04-20: battle-cards and turtle-cards are Production-Ready (not partial). The 10 actual partial games without entry HTML all have status=development, correctly gated from prod catalog.
-
6. Section: Backend contract sanity
- 6.1 Task: For any new/changed RPC or match name, verify
nakama-modules/index.tsregistration matchesfrontendcallers — grep both sides; avoid orphan RPCs. ✅ 2026-04-15: 46 server / 12 frontend — aligned. 1 phantomget_leaderboard(dev-only, benign). - 6.2 Task: After Nakama TS changes, run project’s usual bundle/build for
nakama-modules(perREADME.md/ scripts) before deploy — triple-check nonkruntimenamespace regressions. ✅ 2026-04-20: pnpm build → 0 errors, 0 warnings, 242ms. IIFE unwrapped. index.js 807KB. No nkruntime regressions.
- 6.1 Task: For any new/changed RPC or match name, verify

7. Section: QA & tests (user-triggered)
- 7.1 Task: Run focused Playwright specs touching auth/routing if routes changed:
frontend/tests/guest-auth-validation.spec.ts,frontend/tests/redirects.spec.ts,frontend/tests/legacy-redirects.spec.ts— user runs to avoid CI spam. - 7.2 Task: If game registry changes, smoke-test
/gamesand/play/[id]for affected IDs — user executes in browser.

8. Section: Documentation handoff
- 8.1 Task: When a cleanup slice finishes, add one line to
CHECKLIST.mdor this file under a Changelog subheading (date + what was verified) — keeps audit trail without duplicating full task lists. ✅ 2026-04-20: Changelog maintained throughout session — see entries below. - 8.2 Task: Archive superseded cleanup notes to

🎯 Funday Gaming Platform - Comprehensive Task Checklist
✅ COMPLETED: Infrastructure Blocker Resolution (2025-11-10)
Root Cause Analysis
Problem: HTTPS endpoints returning 502 Investigation Path:
- ✅ Confirmed local Node.js healthy (http://127.0.0.1:3000 → 200)
- ✅ Confirmed Nginx config correct
- ✅ Discovered Traefik LoadBalancer hijacking port 443
- ✅ Changed Traefik to ClusterIP
- ✅ Discovered Agones Allocator still owning port 443
- ✅ Changed Agones Allocator to ClusterIP
- ✅ Fixed Nginx buffer sizes for large headers
Solution Applied:
# Patch K8s services
sudo kubectl patch svc traefik -n kube-system -p '{"spec":{"type":"ClusterIP"}}'
sudo kubectl patch svc agones-allocator -n agones-system -p '{"spec":{"type":"ClusterIP"}}'

🎮 CONNECT4: Critical Bugs (From Latest Testing)
🔴 P0: Duplicate Presence Bug
-
C4-DUP-1: Same user appears 2x in match presences
- Evidence:
user_id: 75510403... with session_id: 210c2a11... AND 21203078... - Root Cause: Host socket joins match + game iframe socket joins again
- Test: Check Nakama console → Match → Presences count
- Fix: Prevent double socket.joinMatch() in
games/connect4/index.html
- Evidence:
-
C4-DUP-2: 4 total presences for 2-player game
- Evidence: Match shows 4 presences (2 per player)
- Impact: Game logic may think 4 players = wrong turn assignment
- File:
/games/connect4/index.html~L810-830
🔴 P0: Off-By-One Column Bug
- C4-COL-1: Clicking column N drops chip in column N+1
- Symptom: “Chip drops in field to the right of clicked”
- Root Cause: Column index calculation error in click handler
- File:
/games/connect4/Connect4Game.jsorindex.html - Test: Click leftmost column, verify chip drops there (not col 2)
🟠 P1: Game State Issues
-
C4-STATE-1: Yellow circle appears top-left on game start

📋 Task List
Section 1: Build Errors (FIRST)
- 1.1 GameDock.svelte: Fix deprecated
<svelte:component>✅- Svelte 5 runes: use
<Icon class="w-4 h-4" />directly (components are dynamic by default)
- Svelte 5 runes: use
Section 2: Board Indexing (CRITICAL)
-
2.1 connect4_match.lua: Fix board array indexing ✅
- Added
json_encode_array()for proper 0-indexed JSON arrays broadcastStatenow converts to 0-indexed before sending
- Added
-
2.2 connect4/index.html: Fix draw detection ✅
- Changed
st.winner === nulltost.winner === falsefor draw
- Changed
Section 3: Match Lifecycle
-
3.1 connect4_match.lua: Terminate match when empty ✅
match_leavereturnsnilwhen 0 players- Also terminates when game over + player leaves
-
3.2 connect4_match.lua: Close finished matches ✅
- Match closes when winner set and player count < 2
Section 4: Chat System
-
4.1 GameDrawer.svelte: Set matchId before ingame mode ✅
lobbyStateActions.set({ matchId })beforesetMode("ingame")- Chat now connects to match-specific channel
-
4.2 GameDrawer.svelte: Fix chat reconnection flow
- When “Chat & Logs” is clicked, properly reinitialize chat
Section 5: State Management
-
5.1 connect4/index.html: Reset state on re-entry ✅
- Added
board,current,over,lastErrorreset before join
- Added
-
5.2 connect4/index.html: Winner detection fix ✅
- Fixed condition to check
winner !== undefined && winner !== null
- Fixed condition to check
Section 6: Activity Tracking
-
6.1 nakama-modules/index.ts: Add afterMatchComplete hook

- Check
Section 7: Duplicate Presences Fix
-
7.1 GameDrawer.svelte: Remove host’s joinMatch call ✅
- Host no longer calls
socket.joinMatch() - Only GAME CLIENT joins the match (prevents 4→2 presences)
- Host just injects session and sends
join-match:action
- Host no longer calls
-
7.2 GameDrawer.svelte: Remove redundant onmatchdata ✅
- Host doesn’t subscribe to match data (game handles it directly)
Section 8: Chat Channel Fix
- 8.1 GameDrawer.svelte: Simplify channel selection ✅
- Use match channel when
matchIdexists (no phase check) - Channel name:
game:connect4:{matchId}for matches
- Use match channel when
Section 9: Testing & Verification
- 9.1 Test match creation flow ✅ Match created successfully
- 9.2 Test 2-player join - verify only 2 presences now
- 9.3 Verify chat uses match-specific channel
- 9.4 Verify column clicks drop in correct position ✅ Col 4 → Col 4
- 9.5 Verify match closes after both leave
- 9.6 Take screenshot proof ✅ Saved

-
3. Section: Manifest and Serving Unification
- 3.1 Task: Create unified plugin helper — frontend/src/lib/server/plugins.ts (scan /game-plugins; read/validate funday-plugin.json via pluginValidator; normalize paths; derive playUrl; expose listPlugins/getPluginById). Reminder: cache results.
- 3.2 Task: Refactor SSR listing — frontend/src/routes/games/+page.server.ts to use lib/server/plugins.ts. Reminder: preserve filtering/search.
- 3.3 Task: Refactor SSR detail — frontend/src/routes/games/[id]/+page.server.ts to use lib/server/plugins.ts. Reminder: support folder name and manifest.id.
- 3.4 Task: Refactor APIs — frontend/src/routes/api/games/+server.ts and [id]/+server.ts to use lib/server/plugins.ts. Reminder: consistent shape.

- 5.2 Task: Implement handshake (host: “funday:handshake”; game: “funday:ack”) and strict origin validation (exact allowlists). Reminder: reject wildcard.
- 5.3 Task: Implement reactive injections (theme, locale, session) — subscribe to stores; post updates to game. Reminder: throttle if noisy.
- 5.4 Task: Forward analytics — on “funday:analytics-event” call frontend/src/lib/utils/analytics.ts trackEvent. Reminder: attach correlation id.
- 5.5 Task: Forward scores — on “funday:score-submitted” POST to /api/leaderboards/submit with validation. Reminder: error toast on failure.

-
6. Section: Viewport & CSS (Single Scroll)
- 6.1 Task: Add CSS vars and policies — frontend/src/app.css (declare —nav-h, —dock-h; html/body single scroll; overscroll-behavior: contain; scrollbar-gutter: stable; use 100svh/dvh). Reminder: prefers-reduced-motion checks.
- 6.2 Task: Add ResizeObserver in routes/+layout.svelte to set —nav-h based on Navbar height; compute —dock-h when GameDock rendered. Reminder: handle SSR no-DOM.
- 6.3 Task: Ensure GameViewport uses height: calc(100svh - var(—nav-h) - var(—dock-h, 0px)); overflow: hidden. Reminder: test iOS Safari & Android Chrome.
-
7. Section: Security & Headers
- 7.1 Task: Confirm CSP frame-ancestors ‘self’ on platform pages; X-Frame-Options SAMEORIGIN; no sniff. Reminder: check dev/prod parity.
- 7.2 Task: External proxy hardening — frontend/src/routes/play/proxy/+server.ts (allowlist ALLOWED_GAME_HOSTS; strict sandbox guidance; strip security-sensitive headers). Reminder: detailed logs.
- 7.3 Task: PostMessage allowlist — accept messages only from expected origins; reply to known contentWindow. Reminder: unit tests for spoof.
- 7.4 Task: Document sandbox variants for internal vs external; default least privilege. Reminder: no allow-same-origin for external.
-
8. Section: Dedicated Server Integration (Agones)

9. Section: Plugin Adjustments (Internal Games)
- 9.1 Task: Implement embed=1 in all in-house games to hide in-plugin chrome; ensure layoutless mode. Reminder: regression test menus. (Done: networked-snake-multiplayer, snake-casual; see PLUGIN_MIGRATION.md)
- 9.2 Task: Emit Bridge events (game:ready, funday:nav:set, funday:analytics-event, funday:score-submitted). Reminder: type-safe payloads. (Done: networked-snake-multiplayer, snake-casual)
- 9.3 Task: Expose native Svelte component entry for integrationType=‘svelte-component’. Reminder: export default component. (Deferred: Phase 3 - documented as TODO in GameViewport.svelte:172)
-
10. Section: Testing & QA (Automated tests complete; manual QA deferred)
- 10.1 Task: Cross-browser/mobile check for zero double scrollbars; correct viewport height with device UI. Reminder: iOS notch safe area. (Requires manual QA on physical devices)
- 10.2 Task: Reactive theme/locale/session end-to-end tests (toggle while playing; no reload). Reminder: latency <100ms to HUD.
- 10.3 Task: Bridge handshake and message security unit tests (origin checks, invalid payloads). Reminder: property-based tests.
- 10.4 Task: Security tests for CSP/sandbox/proxy allowlist; attempt framing from disallowed origins (should fail). Reminder: logs sanitized.
- 10.5 Task: Performance tests (fps stability, input latency, minimal HUD impact; lazy-load verification). Reminder: CPU throttling runs. (Requires Lighthouse/WebPageTest tooling setup)
-
11. Section: Documentation
- 11.1 Task: Write FundayBridge v1 spec — docs/BRIDGE_V1.md (events, payloads, lifecycle, examples). Reminder: include SDK usage.
- 11.2 Task: Write Plugin Embed Guide — docs/PLUGIN_EMBED_GUIDE.md (embed=1, layoutless, event emissions). Reminder: screenshots.
- 11.3 Task: App Shell Guide — docs/APP_SHELL.md (route structure, HUD/Dock patterns, CSS vars, scroll policy). Reminder: maintenance notes.
-
12. Section: Rollout & Cleanup
- 12.1 Task: Migrate each existing internal game to embed mode and Bridge v1; checklist per game. Reminder: track in docs/PLUGIN_MIGRATION.md. (Completed: 4 plugins migrated, tracked in PLUGIN_MIGRATION.md)
- 12.2 Task: Deprecate gameplay modal; delete or isolate legacy paths (GameModal.svelte) used only for non-game dialogs. Reminder: code search for openModal calls. (Done: GameModal excluded from /play/* routes in +layout.svelte; no modalActions.open calls found in codebase)
- 12.3 Task: Update CI checks/lints for new files and stricter type coverage. Reminder: fail on any TODO left in bridge.
Notes & Reminders
- Triple-check SSR/hydration impacts; avoid layout shift.
- Keep guest-first UX intact; no auth prompts during route transitions.
- Prefer minimal privileges in sandbox; tighten for external sources.
- Ensure all origin checks are exact strings; no regex wildcards.
- Keep code small and readable (JS/TS Quality rules); early returns, strict types, no unnecessary refactors outside scope.
- Document all public contracts (Bridge, embed) clearly for future plugins.

🏰 Catan: The Master Blueprint
The following is the definitive, re-architected Master Checklist. It transforms the previous list into a strategic execution roadmap, prioritizing architectural stability (Phase 1) before complexity (Phase 3), ensuring the “Kernel + Extension” pattern is strictly enforced.
Mission: Forge a production-grade, multi-expansion Catan engine. Stack: Svelte 5 (Runes) · Nakama · TypeScript · Tailwind 4 Architecture: Kernel (State/Net) + Extensions (Rules) + Manifests (Data)
🔴 Phase 1: The “Real” Engine Startup (Architecture)
Objective: Eliminate hacks. Establish a unified, deterministic startup flow for both Solo and Multiplayer.
- 1.1 Fix Entry Point (
App.svelte)- Remove
setTimeoutauto-start hack. - Bind
game.state.startedstrictly tosetupControllercompletion orSTART_GAMEopcode. - Ensure
initializeMap()only runs once via$effectwith tracking.
- Remove
- 1.2 Unify Solo/Multiplayer Flow (
Lobby.svelte)- Wire “Play Solo” button to
nakamaManager.setSoloMode(true)→setupController.initSetup(). - Ensure
nakamaManager.sendMatchDatareturns early (no-op) in Solo Mode without errors. - Verify
SetupControlleradvances state locally in Solo Mode (Optimistic UI).
- Wire “Play Solo” button to
- 1.3 The Setup State Machine (
SetupController.ts)- Implement “Snake Draft” logic (1-2-3-4 → 4-3-2-1).
- Enforce: Resources granted only on 2nd settlement placement.
- UI:
SetupPhase.sveltemust show explicit “Waiting for X” or “Your Turn” states.
🟡 Phase 2: World Generation Integrity (The Bible §2)
Objective: Mathematical perfection of the board layout. No illegal maps.
- 2.1 Red Number Constraint (
MapGenerator.ts)- Critical: Implement
validateRedNumberPlacement(): No 6 touching 6, 8 touching 8, or 6 touching 8. - Implement
fixRedNumberViolations(): Smart swapping algorithm (not just random shuffle) to resolve conflicts. - Test: Generate 100 maps, assert 0 violations.
- Critical: Implement
- 2.2 Resource Balance
- Verify exact tile counts: 4 Wood, 4 Sheep, 4 Wheat, 3 Brick, 3 Ore, 1 Desert.
- Verify exact port counts: 4 Generic (3:1), 1 of each Specific (2:1).
- Ensure Desert never receives a number token.
🟢 Phase 3: The Core Rules Engine (The Bible §4-9)
Objective: Bulletproof turn logic and rule enforcement.
- 3.1 Turn Phase State Machine (
GameController.ts)- Refactor
nextPhase()to strictly follow:ROLL→TRADE/BUILD(Interleaved) →END. - Inject
ship_movephase dynamically only if Seafarers extension is active.
- Refactor
- 3.2 Development Card Physics (
DevCardController.ts)- Enforce: Cannot play card bought this turn (check
card.boughtThisTurn). - Exception: Allow Victory Point cards to be revealed immediately if they trigger a win.
- Enforce: Max 1 Knight/Progress card per turn.
- Enforce: Cannot play card bought this turn (check
- 3.3 The Robber Protocol (
RobberController.ts)- Trigger: On Roll 7, check hand size > 7 for all players.
- Flow: Pause game →
DISCARDPhase (UI blocks until all discard) →MOVE_ROBBER→STEAL. - Logic: Ensure Robber must move to a new hex (cannot stay).
🔵 Phase 4: Victory & Achievements (The Bible §10-12)
Objective: Dynamic scoring and win condition tracking.
- 4.1 Longest Road (DFS)
- Implement DFS in
BaseExtensionto count longest continuous path. - Rule: Opponent settlements break the road.
- Seafarers: Hook
onCalculateLongestRouteto include Ships.
- Implement DFS in
- 4.2 Largest Army
- Count played Knights only.
- Logic: Must exceed current holder to steal the card.
- 4.3 Victory Check
- Sum: Public VP + Achievement VP + Private VP (Hand).
- Trigger: Run check after every build/buy action.
🎨 Phase 5: UI/UX “Juice” (Svelte 5)
Objective: Modern, responsive, and delightful interaction.
- 5.1 Responsive Layout (
App.svelte)- Remove magic pixels (
w-[800px]). Use CSS Grid/Flex regions (Board, HUD, Controls). - Ensure HUD stays pinned to bottom on mobile.
- Remove magic pixels (
- 5.2 Interaction Feedback
- Ghost Buildings: Render semi-transparent Settlement/City on vertex hover during build mode.
- Toasts: Use
toasts.svelte.tsfor all errors (“Not enough resources”, “Blocked”). - Animations: Resource cards “fly” from hex to HUD on harvest.
🛡️ Phase 6: Code Quality & Infrastructure
Objective: Maintainability and type safety.
- 6.1 Strict Typing
- Remove all
anycasts in Controllers. - Convert
ResourceandTerrainto strict Union Types (no strings).
- Remove all
- 6.2 Network Resilience
- Handle
STATE_SYNCto fully restoreextensionState(Seafarers fog, C&K progress). - Add reconnection toast on socket close.
- Handle

3. GAME INITIALIZATION
3.1 Component Setup
- Initialize resource bank: 19 cards each type
- Initialize development deck: 25 cards, shuffled
- Verify: 14 Knight, 2 Road Building, 2 Year of Plenty, 2 Monopoly, 5 VP
- Initialize player inventories: 0 resources, 0 dev cards
- Initialize player building supplies: 15 roads, 5 settlements, 4 cities
- Place robber on desert hex
3.2 Starting Player Determination
- Each player rolls 2d6

- Ties: re-roll among tied players only
- Store turn order (clockwise from starter)
3.3 Initial Placement Phase
Snake Draft Order (n players)
- Round 1: Player 1 → 2 → … → n (clockwise)
- Round 2: Player n → n-1 → … → 1 (reverse)
Placement Actions
- Each placement: 1 settlement + 1 adjacent road
- Validate Distance Rule before settlement placement
- Validate road connects to just-placed settlement
- RULE: Both roads cannot extend from same settlement
Starting Resources
- After ALL placements complete
- Each player receives resources from 2nd settlement only
- 1 resource per adjacent terrain type (not desert)
- Deduct from bank
3.4 Distance Rule Validation
isValidSettlementPlacement(intersection):
if intersection.building != null: return false
for adjacent in intersection.adjacentIntersections:
if adjacent.building != null: return false
return true
4. STATE MACHINE & TURN FLOW
4.1 Phase Transitions
SETUP_PLACEMENT_ROUND_1
→ (all placed) → SETUP_PLACEMENT_ROUND_2
SETUP_PLACEMENT_ROUND_2
→ (all placed) → distribute starting resources → PRE_ROLL
PRE_ROLL
→ (player rolls) → ROLL_DICE
→ (player plays dev card) → PRE_ROLL (mark devCardPlayedThisTurn)

- Roll dice (mandatory, transitions phase)
Trade/Build Actions (interchangeable order)
- Domestic trade
- Maritime trade
- Build road
- Build settlement
- Upgrade to city
- Buy development card
- Play development card (if not yet played this turn)
- End turn
4.3 Action Validation

- All actions validate player has required resources
- All actions validate building supply available
- All actions validate placement rules
4.4 Turn Bookkeeping
- Reset
devCardPlayedThisTurnat turn start - Clear
devCardsBoughtThisTurnat turn start - Clear
diceRollat turn start - Increment
turnNumber - Advance
currentPlayerIndex(mod player count)
5. DICE SYSTEM
5.1 Dice Roll Implementation
- Roll 2 independent d6 (1-6 each)
- Sum for production number (2-12)
- Store individual dice values (for display/logging)
- Use cryptographically fair RNG for fairness
5.2 Probability Reference
| Sum | Probability | Combinations |
|---|---|---|
| 2 | 1/36 (2.78%) | 1 |
| 3 | 2/36 (5.56%) | 2 |
| 4 | 3/36 (8.33%) | 3 |
| 5 | 4/36 (11.11%) | 4 |

| 11 | 2/36 (5.56%) | 2 |
| 12 | 1/36 (2.78%) | 1 |
5.3 Dot Count Mapping
- Implement:
getDotCount(number) → int - Formula:
dots = 6 - abs(7 - number) - Used for UI display and AI evaluation
6. RESOURCE SYSTEM
6.1 Resource Production
produceResources(diceSum):
if diceSum == 7: return // handled by robber
productionMap = Map<PlayerId, Map<ResourceType, int>>
for hex in board.hexes:
if hex.numberToken != diceSum: continue
if hex.hasRobber: continue
resource = hex.terrain.producesResource()
if resource == null: continue // desert
for intersection in hex.adjacentIntersections:
if intersection.building == null: continue
player = intersection.owner
amount = 1 if intersection.building == SETTLEMENT else 2
productionMap[player][resource] += amount
// Check for scarcity
for resource in ResourceType:
totalNeeded = sum(productionMap[*][resource])
available = bank[resource]
if totalNeeded > available:
playerCount = count(p where productionMap[p][resource] > 0)
if playerCount > 1:
// Multiple players, none receive
for player in players:
productionMap[player][resource] = 0
else:
// Single player receives all available
for player in players:
productionMap[player][resource] = min(productionMap[player][resource], available)
// Distribute
for player, resources in productionMap:
for resource, amount in resources:
player.resources[resource] += amount
bank[resource] -= amount
6.2 Resource Scarcity Rules
- Track bank quantities (19 each initially)
- If multiple players should receive but bank insufficient: no one receives
- If single player should receive but bank insufficient: receive all available
- Log scarcity events
6.3 Bank Operations
-
bankHas(resource, amount) → bool -
takeFromBank(resource, amount)— validate first -
returnToBank(resource, amount) -
bankTotal(resource) → int
7. TRADING SYSTEM
7.1 Domestic Trade
Validation Rules
- Only active player can initiate/participate
- Both parties must give ≥1 card
- Cannot trade 0 cards for something (no gifts)
- Cannot trade identical resources (e.g., 2 wool for 1 wool)
- Development cards cannot be traded
- Non-active players cannot trade with each other
Implementation
validateDomesticTrade(offer, request, fromPlayer, toPlayer):
if currentPlayer != fromPlayer AND currentPlayer != toPlayer:
return false // active player must be involved
if offer.isEmpty() OR request.isEmpty():
return false // no gifts
if offer.keys().intersect(request.keys()).notEmpty():
return false // no same-resource trades
if not fromPlayer.hasResources(offer):
return false
if not toPlayer.hasResources(request):
return false
return true
7.2 Maritime Trade
Base Rate (Always Available)
- 4:1 — trade 4 identical resources for 1 any
- No harbor required
- Available to all players on their turn
Harbor Rates
- 3:1 Generic — requires settlement/city at generic harbor
- 2:1 Specific — requires settlement/city at matching resource harbor
- Better rates do NOT replace worse (can still 4:1 if desired)
Implementation
getMaritimeTradeRates(player):
rates = {default: 4}
for intersection in player.buildings:
harbor = intersection.harbor
if harbor == GENERIC_3_1:
rates[default] = min(rates[default], 3)
elif harbor == LUMBER_2_1:
rates[LUMBER] = 2
// ... etc for each specific harbor
return rates
validateMaritimeTrade(player, giveResource, giveAmount, getResource):
if currentPlayer != player:
return false // only on your turn
rates = getMaritimeTradeRates(player)
requiredAmount = rates[giveResource] ?? rates[default]
if giveAmount != requiredAmount:
return false
if not player.hasResources({giveResource: giveAmount}):
return false
if not bankHas(getResource, 1):
return false
return true
7.3 Trade Timing
- Domestic trade: only during active player’s TRADE_BUILD phase
- Maritime trade: only during YOUR TRADE_BUILD phase
- No trading during other phases
- No trading during setup
- No trading during Special Building Phase (5-6 player)

player.citiesRemaining -= 1
intersection.building = CITY
8.6 Development Card Purchase
canBuyDevelopmentCard(player):
if developmentCardDeck.isEmpty(): return false
return player.hasResources({WOOL: 1, GRAIN: 1, ORE: 1})
buyDevelopmentCard(player):
player.removeResources({WOOL: 1, GRAIN: 1, ORE: 1})

shuffle(deck)
return deck
9.2 Play Timing Rules
- Max 1 Knight/Progress card per turn
- Can play before OR after rolling
- CANNOT play card bought this turn
- EXCEPTION: VP cards can be revealed immediately to win
- VP cards are never “played” — just revealed when winning
- Once dev card played, cannot play another this turn
canPlayDevelopmentCard(player, card):

return totalStolen // for logging/UI
9.7 Victory Point Cards
- Worth 1 VP each when held
- Kept hidden until victory declared
- Never “played” — just revealed
- Count toward victory even when hidden
- Can reveal after game ends (for score comparison)
10. ROBBER MECHANICS
10.1 Trigger: Rolling 7
Step 1: Discard Phase
handleRobberDiscard():
discardRequirements = {}
for player in players:
cardCount = player.totalResourceCards()
if cardCount > 7:
discardRequirements[player] = floor(cardCount / 2)
// Wait for all players to select discards
// Transition to ROBBER_PLACE when all resolved
Step 2: Robber Placement
placeRobber(player, targetHex):
if targetHex == currentRobberHex:
return error("must move to different hex")
board.hexes[currentRobberHex].hasRobber = false
board.hexes[targetHex].hasRobber = true
currentRobberHex = targetHex
// Determine steal candidates
candidates = getPlayersWithBuildingsAdjacentTo(targetHex)
candidates.remove(player) // can't steal from self
if candidates.isEmpty():
// Skip steal phase
transitionTo(TRADE_BUILD)
else:
// Transition to steal selection
transitionTo(ROBBER_STEAL)
Step 3: Steal
stealResource(thief, victim):
if victim.totalResourceCards() == 0:
return // nothing to steal
// Random selection
allCards = victim.getAllResourceCardsAsList()
stolenCard = randomChoice(allCards)
victim.resources[stolenCard] -= 1
thief.resources[stolenCard] += 1
10.2 Trigger: Knight Card
- Move robber (same rules as rolling 7)
- Steal from adjacent opponent
- NO DISCARD PHASE — only 7 triggers discards
10.3 Robber Blocking
isHexBlocked(hex):
return hex.hasRobber
// In resource production:
if hex.hasRobber: continue // skip production
10.4 Valid Robber Placements
- Any terrain hex (including desert)
- Cannot stay on current hex
- Can return to desert
- Can place on own hex (not recommended)
11. SPECIAL ACHIEVEMENTS
11.1 Longest Road
Calculation Algorithm
calculateLongestRoad(player):
maxLength = 0
// Try starting from each of player's roads
for edge in player.roads:
length = dfs(edge, player, visited={})
maxLength = max(maxLength, length)
return maxLength
dfs(edge, player, visited):
if edge in visited: return 0
if edge.owner != player: return 0
visited.add(edge)
maxFromHere = 1
for intersection in edge.adjacentIntersections:
// Check if blocked by opponent settlement/city
if intersection.owner != null AND intersection.owner != player:
continue // blocked, can't continue through here
for nextEdge in intersection.adjacentEdges:
if nextEdge != edge AND nextEdge.owner == player:
length = 1 + dfs(nextEdge, player, visited)
maxFromHere = max(maxFromHere, length)
visited.remove(edge) // backtrack for other paths
return maxFromHere
Update Rules
updateLongestRoad():
for player in players:
player.longestRoadLength = calculateLongestRoad(player)
// Find new holder
candidates = [p for p in players if p.longestRoadLength >= 5]
if candidates.isEmpty():
// No one qualifies
longestRoadHolder = null
longestRoadLength = 0
return
maxLength = max(c.longestRoadLength for c in candidates)
tiedPlayers = [c for c in candidates if c.longestRoadLength == maxLength]
if longestRoadHolder in tiedPlayers:
// Current holder retains on tie
return
if tiedPlayers.size() == 1:
// Clear winner
longestRoadHolder = tiedPlayers[0]
longestRoadLength = maxLength
else:
// Multiple tied, no holder
longestRoadHolder = null
Breaking Opponent’s Road
- Building settlement on opponent’s road intersection splits their road
- Recalculate all players’ longest road
- Card may change hands or become unclaimed
11.2 Largest Army
Update Rules
updateLargestArmy():
// Find player with most knights (minimum 3)
candidates = [p for p in players if p.playedKnights >= 3]
if candidates.isEmpty():
return // no change
maxKnights = max(c.playedKnights for c in candidates)
if largestArmyHolder != null:
if largestArmyHolder.playedKnights >= maxKnights:
return // current holder retains on tie
// Find new holder (must exceed, not just tie)
for candidate in candidates:
if candidate.playedKnights == maxKnights:
if largestArmyHolder == null OR candidate.playedKnights > largestArmyHolder.playedKnights:
largestArmyHolder = candidate
break
Rules
- Minimum 3 knights to qualify
- Must EXCEED current holder to take (ties don’t transfer)
- Once played, knights are permanent (never lost)
12. VICTORY CONDITIONS
12.1 Victory Point Calculation
calculateVictoryPoints(player):
vp = 0
// Settlements

12.2 Victory Check
checkVictory():
if phase == GAME_OVER: return
currentPlayer = players[currentPlayerIndex]
vp = calculateVictoryPoints(currentPlayer)
if vp >= 10:
winner = currentPlayer
phase = GAME_OVER
return true
return false
12.3 Victory Timing Rules
- Can only win during YOUR turn
- Reaching 10 VP on opponent’s turn: wait for your turn
- Reaching 10 VP during your turn: immediate win
- Game ends automatically (no need to “declare”)
- If player unknowingly has 10 VP: they’ve still won
12.4 VP Card Revelation
- VP cards revealed upon winning
- May reveal after game ends (if another player wins)
- Hidden VP cards still count toward victory
- Buying VP card that gives 10+ VP: immediate win (exception to same-turn rule)
13. VALIDATION LAYER

Board Invariants
- Exactly 19 hexes (base game)
- Exactly 1 desert hex
- Exactly 18 number tokens placed (desert excluded)
- No 6/8 adjacency violations
- Exactly 1 robber on board
- Robber on valid hex
Player Invariants
-
roadsRemaining + roadsOnBoard == 15 -
settlementsRemaining + settlementsOnBoard + citiesOnBoard <= 5 -
citiesRemaining + citiesOnBoard == 4 - No negative resources
- Dev cards in hand match purchased - played
Global Invariants
- Sum of all player resources + bank = 95 (19 × 5)
- Dev cards in deck + in hands + played = 25
- Turn order is consistent
- Only 1 player can hold Longest Road
- Only 1 player can hold Largest Army
13.2 Action Validators

validateBuildSettlement(player, intersection) -
validateBuildCity(player, intersection) -
validateBuyDevCard(player) -
validatePlayDevCard(player, card, params) -

validateMaritimeTrade(player, give, receive) -
validatePlaceRobber(player, hex) -
validateStealResource(player, victim) -
validateDiscard(player, cards) -
validateEndTurn(player)
13.3 Phase Validators
- Each action validates it’s allowed in current phase
- State transitions validate preconditions
- Post-conditions checked after each action
14. EDGE CASES
14.1 Resource Scarcity
- Bank runs out mid-distribution: apply scarcity rules
- Year of Plenty with insufficient bank: take what’s available
- Monopoly when target has 0: no error, 0 received
14.2 Development Cards
- Deck empty: cannot buy more
- Road Building with 0-1 roads left: place what you can
- Playing knight before first roll: allowed
- VP card bought gives 10 VP: immediate win allowed
14.3 Building
- All pieces placed: cannot build more
- Settlement blocking road extension: properly handled
- Building through opponent settlement: blocked
- Coastal building: allowed (1-2 adjacent hexes)
14.4 Trading
- Trade to self: blocked
- Trade 0 resources: blocked
- Trade identical resources: blocked
- Trade dev cards: blocked
- Trade during wrong phase: blocked
14.5 Robber
- Place on own hex: allowed (but warned)

- Place on desert: allowed
- Stay on same hex: blocked
14.6 Longest Road
- Circular roads: count full length
- Road broken by settlement: recalculate both segments
- Multiple players tied: card unclaimed OR current holder retains
- 5-length achieved simultaneously: first to build gets it
14.7 Victory
- 10+ VP not on your turn: wait
- Tied for longest road at 10 VP: check if card held
- VP card hidden but puts you at 10: you’ve won
15. 5-6 PLAYER EXTENSION

export type BuildingType = "settlement" | "city"
export interface IntersectionState {
id: IntersectionId
building: BuildingType | null

| { phase: "robberPlace" }
| { phase: "robberSteal"; validTargets: PlayerId[] }
| { phase: "main" } // trade/build phase
// End
| { phase: "gameOver"; winner: PlayerId }Checklist

-
preRollallows playing dev card before dice -
postRolltransitions based on dice result (7 vs other) -
robberDiscardtracks who still needs to discard -
robberStealknows valid steal targets -
mainphase allows interleaved trade/build -
gameOverstores winner
4.2 Phase Transitions
// state/transitions.ts
// PSEUDOCODE: Phase transition logic
/*
setup(round=1)
→ [all placed] → setup(round=2)
setup(round=2)
→ [all placed] → distributeStartingResources() → preRoll
preRoll
→ [roll action] → postRoll(dice)
→ [play dev card] → preRoll (mark hasPlayedDevCardThisTurn)
postRoll(dice)
→ [sum ≠ 7] → distributeResources(sum) → main
→ [sum = 7] → calculateDiscards() → robberDiscard OR robberPlace
robberDiscard
→ [all discarded] → robberPlace
robberPlace
→ [placed] → robberSteal OR main (if no valid targets)
robberSteal
→ [stolen] → main
main
→ [end turn] → checkVictory() → nextPlayer preRoll OR gameOver
→ [10+ VP achieved mid-turn] → gameOver
*/Checklist
- Setup round 1: clockwise order
- Setup round 2: reverse order (snake draft)
- Starting resources from 2nd settlement only
- Roll 7: discards happen BEFORE robber placement
- Roll 7: ALL players check for discard simultaneously

- Only steal from players with buildings adjacent to robber’s NEW hex
- Cannot steal from self
- If multiple valid targets, thief chooses one
- Steal is RANDOM (victim holds cards face-down)
- Cannot look at victim’s hand
- If victim has 0 cards, nothing stolen
- If no valid targets, skip stealing
10.2 Robber Blocking
// In resource production:

| Discard | YES (all players > 7) | NO |
| Move Robber | YES | YES |
| Steal | YES | YES |
| Can do both in one turn | N/A | YES (after rolling 7) |

*/Checklist
- First to reach 5 segments gets card
- Must EXCEED to take (tie doesn’t transfer)
- Current holder retains on tie
- If road broken and no one has 5+, card goes to no one
- Worth 2 VP

LAYER 12: VICTORY CONDITIONS
12.1 Victory Point Calculation
// game/victory.ts
function calculateVP(player: Player, game: GameState): number {
let vp = 0
// Settlements (1 each)
vp += countBuildings(player.id, "settlement", game.board)
// Cities (2 each)
vp += countBuildings(player.id, "city", game.board) * 2
// VP dev cards (even hidden)
vp += player.devCardsInHand.filter((c) => c.type === "victoryPoint").length
// Longest Road
if (game.longestRoadHolder === player.id) vp += 2
// Largest Army
if (game.largestArmyHolder === player.id) vp += 2
return vp
}Checklist
- Settlement = 1 VP
- City = 2 VP
- VP card = 1 VP (even hidden)
- Longest Road = 2 VP
- Largest Army = 2 VP
- Recalculate on every state change
12.2 Victory Check
// PSEUDOCODE: Check for victory
/*
function checkVictory(game: GameState): PlayerId | null {
// Can only win on your turn
const currentPlayer = game.players[game.currentPlayerIndex];
const vp = calculateVP(currentPlayer, game);
if (vp >= 10) {
return currentPlayer.id;
}
return null;
}
// Call this after EVERY action that could change VP:
// - Building settlement
// - Building city
// - Buying dev card (might be VP)
// - Getting Longest Road
// - Getting Largest Army
// - Opponent losing achievement to you
*/Checklist
- Win requires 10+ VP on YOUR turn
- Reaching 10 VP on opponent’s turn: wait for your turn
- Game ends immediately upon reaching 10 VP
- No need to “declare” — automatic
- Check after every VP-affecting action
12.3 VP Card Exception
// PSEUDOCODE: VP card same-turn win
/*
function onDevCardPurchased(player: Player, card: DevCard, game: GameState): void {
player.devCardsInHand.push(card);
player.devCardsBoughtThisTurn.push(card);
// EXCEPTION: Check for immediate win
if (card.type === 'victoryPoint') {
const vp = calculateVP(player, game);
if (vp >= 10) {
// Reveal VP cards and win immediately
game.phase = { phase: 'gameOver', winner: player.id };
}
}
}
*/Checklist
- Buying VP card that reaches 10 VP = immediate win
- This is the ONLY exception to “cannot play same-turn card”
- VP cards aren’t “played” — they’re revealed

*/Checklist
- Total resources = 95 (player hands + bank)
- Exactly 1 robber on board
- Player piece accounting correct
- No negative resources anywhere
- Distance rule satisfied everywhere
- No red number adjacency
