Exploration-maximizing bot that maintains per-cell last-seen tick counters,
moves toward the stalest unobserved territory using forward-cone staleness
scoring, flees from enemies within extended combat range, and distributes
multiple bots across angular zones for maximum map coverage.
Archetype: Low Aggression, Low Economy, High Exploration, Low Formation.

PacifistBot never attacks; it survives by maximizing distance from enemies
and retreating toward own core when cornered. Pure evasion strategy that
wins via opponent elimination by third parties.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Economy-maximizing bot that prioritizes energy collection and spawning
while avoiding combat entirely. Seeks nearest uncontested energy via BFS,
flees enemies within 3 cells, avoids contested energy tiles, and stays
near active cores for maximum spawn throughput. Includes 12 unit tests.

Core-defense strategy: bots patrol evenly-spaced slots around their
own core, intercept enemies entering the perimeter radius, and never
chase past the perimeter. Falls back to energy gathering when cores
are lost.
MAP-Elites profile: Low Aggression, Low Economy, Low Exploration, High Formation.

The RecencyBoost test now uses balanced 5-5 splits for both pairs so
recency is the sole differentiating factor (previously one pair was 10-0
which conflated balance and recency). Also wires Prometheus build
duration metric in main loop.

Add crosspoll_state table to persist per-island generation counters
across evolver restarts. Load state on startup and save after each
cross-pollination check. Add persistence pattern and translation
structure tests.

- Add Exploration and Formation axis definitions with feature extraction
from source code pattern matching (exploration/formation indicators)
- Extend Grid key from (x,y) to (x,y,z,w) with 3⁴=81-cell behavior grid
- Update bin assignment, promotion gate, and persistence (JSON snapshot)
- Add Slice() for 2-D dashboard visualization across any axis pair
- Migration: old 2-D archives project at z=middle, w=middle
- Update cross-pollination to pad 2-element behavior vectors to 4
- Add Prometheus metrics to matchmaker (bot crashes, stale job count)
- Add rivalry detection to index builder (data/meta/rivalries.json)
- Web: batched bot list loading, leaderboard keyboard accessibility,
improved ARIA attributes on match/playlist cards
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Leaderboard, bot directory, match history, and playlist pages now use
expandable rows/cards, IntersectionObserver lazy rendering, windowed
virtual scrolling (for 1000+ leaderboard entries), and batched "Show
more" affordances. All expand/collapse transitions respect
prefers-reduced-motion. Keyboard accessibility (Enter/Space to toggle)
and ARIA attributes (aria-expanded, aria-controls) added throughout.

Adds mock store/LLM implementations and tests for CheckAndPollinate:
generation boundaries, fitness penalties, translation triggers,
multi-boundary catch-up, and empty island handling.

Add crash_strikes and cooldown_until columns to bots table. Worker
increments strikes on crash (cooldown at 3), resets on success.
Matchmaker excludes cooldown bots from pairing, series scheduling,
and championship brackets. Fix erroneous cooldown filter on series
table in finalizeCompletedSeries (column only exists on bots).

The bots page was refactored to use lazySection but left behind an
unused BATCH_SIZE = 50 constant, causing a TS6133 build error.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The crash cooldown system was already implemented across engine, worker,
and matchmaker. This adds comprehensive integration tests that verify:
- Single crash does not trigger cooldown
- Two crashes do not trigger cooldown
- Three consecutive crashes trigger 30-min cooldown
- Successful match resets strike counter
- Interleaved crash/success resets counter correctly
- Cooldown extends on repeated crashes while on cooldown
- Matchmaker eligibility query excludes bots on active cooldown
- Matchmaker eligibility query includes bots with expired cooldown
- Full end-to-end flow: 3 crashes → excluded → cooldown expires → re-pair
Tests use ACB_TEST_DATABASE_URL env var for PostgreSQL integration tests
and skip gracefully when not configured.

Adds cross-pollination logic that copies the top program from each island
to a random other island every 50 generations. When source and target
islands use different languages, the LLM translates the code. Generation
boundaries are tracked per-island to prevent duplicate events.
- New crosspoll package with boundary detection, migration, and LLM translation
- Added MaxGenerationByIsland DB query for generation counter tracking
- Integrated into RunEvolutionLoop with observability logging
- Tests for boundary logic, translation prompts, and target selection

Virtual list tracks expanded row heights for correct spacer calculations.
Leaderboard mobile cards use event delegation so toggles work inside lazy
sections. Mobile card details animate with max-height instead of display
toggle. Reduced-motion rules cover all expand/collapse patterns.

Worker now gzip-compresses replays before uploading to B2 with
key replays/{match_id}.json.gz and Content-Encoding: gzip.
Updated B2 client Upload to accept contentEncoding parameter.
Fixed downstream web consumers (matches, bot-profile, playlists)

TikTok-style full-screen vertical carousel for playlist matches on mobile.
Swipe up/down advances between replays, horizontal swipe reveals metadata
panel with match details. Director mode auto-adjusts speed based on action
density. Auto-advance with animated countdown ring after replay completion.
Desktop layout unaffected — carousel only activates on mobile (<768px).

Wire IntersectionObserver-based lazy rendering into bot profile (recent
matches below fold) and leaderboard (mobile cards). All three dense pages
(leaderboard, matches, bot-profile) now use expandable rows/cards for
secondary detail, windowed rendering for long lists, and keyboard-accessible
"Show more" affordances. Expand/collapse animations respect reduced-motion.

Implement double-buffered canvas cross-fade when switching between
dots, Voronoi territory, and influence gradient views. Old layer fades
out while new layer fades in with ease-in-out cubic easing over 400ms.
Respects prefers-reduced-motion by snapping instantly when set.

The getEnv() function in server.go always returned the default value,
preventing ACB_R2_ENDPOINT/ACB_B2_ENDPOINT from being read at runtime.
Also updated Dockerfile from golang:1.24 to golang:1.25 to match go.mod.
K8s manifests for acb-evolver and acb-api already exist in
declarative-config/k8s/iad-acb/ai-code-battle/ (added Apr 21).

Three perceived-performance features:
- Preload on hover: internal links prefetch target JSON data after 150ms
hover debounce using <link rel=prefetch>. Touch events prefetch
immediately.
- Skeleton screens: every async page shows a shimmer-animated placeholder
matching the final content layout (leaderboard rows, bot profile card,
replay canvas, playlist grid, etc.) instead of generic "Loading..." text.
- Instant back-cache: back/forward navigation restores scroll position and
cached HTML from an in-memory LRU cache (8 pages), making back navigation
0ms.

The community feedback endpoint was registered as /api/ui-feedback in
the Go API but the plan and annotation.ts client both use /api/feedback.
Rename the route and update agentation-overlay.ts to match. Add a
route-level test asserting the canonical path and that the old path
returns 404.

Remove the lenient fallback that accepted bot responses missing the
X-ACB-Signature header. Missing or invalid signatures now cause the
response to be discarded and count toward the crash threshold (§4.5).
Add tests for missing-header, bad-signature, and crash-after-10 cases.

Add director.ts component with action density computation, speed schedule
generation, and eased speed transitions. Integrate into replay viewer with
Director option in speed selector, target duration presets (30s/1min/2min/5min),
speed indicator display, and scrubbing pause/resume.

Working tree had removed the annotation component imports while the
initAnnotations function and ANNOTATION_OVERLAY_STYLES template
reference still depended on them, causing TS build failures.
- Fix TS6133: rename _matchId → matchId in AnnotationOverlay and use
this.matchId in filter so the field is actually read
- Align ANNOTATION_TAGS in feedback.ts to four types from plan §8.3:
insight, mistake, idea, highlight (matching components/annotation.ts)
- Update LS_KEY to acb_annotations_v2 to avoid stale-format conflicts
- Fix duplicate import block in api-types.ts (re-exported evolution types)
- Remove unused debugPanelChevron ref in replay.ts; add annotation
imports for AnnotationOverlay and createAnnotationForm
The AI commentary generation backend (enrichment.go) and client-side
subtitle display (replay-viewer.ts, embed.ts, home.ts) were already
complete in prior commits.

Playlist curation per §10 is fully implemented in the index builder:
- generatePlaylists() writes /data/playlists/index.json and {slug}.json
- curateWeeklyHighlights() selects best-of-week by upsets, elite
clashes, marathon turns, and closest finishes (last 7 days)
- persistGeneratedPlaylists() upserts to playlists/playlist_matches DB tables
- /data/playlists/ stub files seeded for all 12 curated collections
Replay viewer improvements shipped alongside:
- WinProbPoint refactored from {p0,p1} to {probs: number[]} for N players
- renderWinProbSparkline draws one line per player with matching colors
- replay.ts updated to build probs[] from replay.win_prob arrays
- Dynamic legend generated from replay.players instead of hardcoded P0/P1
New annotation overlay component (§16.8):
- AnnotationOverlay: timeline track, per-turn list, canvas markers
- createAnnotationForm: type selector, author, body, localStorage + API
- ANNOTATION_OVERLAY_STYLES: self-contained CSS for the overlay
Evolver: add mutations_per_hour metric to Totals (live.json §14)
Types: consolidate evolution types into types.ts, re-export from api-types.ts

The series scheduler was scheduling games and creating series_games rows,
but never updated winner_id or incremented a_wins/b_wins when individual
matches completed. This left series in perpetual "active" state since
finalizeCompletedSeries checks win counts that were never incremented.
Add updateSeriesGameResults step that:
- Finds series_games with completed matches but NULL winner_id
- Updates winner_id from match_participants
- Increments a_wins or b_wins on the series table
Called as step 0 in tickSeriesScheduler, before finalization checks.
