Evolver writes live.json to R2 every cycle. Observatory page polls and
renders live feed + lineage tree + meta shift chart.
- Added ACB_R2_UPLOAD_ENABLED env var to enable automatic R2 upload during run loop
- CycleState tracks real-time evolution cycle status (generation, phase, candidate, validation, evaluation)
- Export() now includes cycle info when cycleState is provided
- runCycle() integrated with live observatory exports at each phase transition
- exportLiveQuiet() for mid-cycle status updates without verbose logging
- Fixed function signature mismatches for exportLiveQuiet calls

Wire up the acb-map-evolver to run automatically on a weekly schedule
(Sunday 03:00 UTC by default) from the evolver deployment.
The map evolution ticker:
- Waits until the next scheduled time (weekday:hour:minute UTC)
- Runs acb-map-evolver --once to evolve maps for all player counts
- Repeats every 7 days
The schedule can be configured via ACB_MAP_EVOLUTION_SCHEDULE env var
(format: WEEKDAY:HH:MM, e.g., "0:03:00" for Sunday 03:00 UTC).
Enable via ACB_MAP_EVOLUTION_ENABLED=true or --enable-map-evolution flag.
Per plan §14.6: the weekly map evolution loads engagement scores,
runs MAP-Elites evolution, promotes high-scoring variants, and updates
the active map pool in the database.

- Implement runWeeklyLoop() function that waits for scheduled time and
runs evolution for all player counts (2, 3, 4, 6) weekly
- Add --weekly flag to enable weekly mode (default: Sunday 03:00 UTC)
- Add --weekly-schedule flag for custom schedule (WEEKDAY:HH:MM format)
- Add ACB_WEEKLY_SCHEDULE env var for configuration
feat(acb-evolver): add weekly map evolution ticker
- Add MapEvolutionEnabled and MapEvolutionSchedule to RunConfig
- Add --enable-map-evolution flag to acb-evolver run subcommand
- Add startMapEvolutionTicker() goroutine that runs weekly
- Ticker executes acb-map-evolver --once to trigger map breeding
- Configurable via ACB_MAP_EVOLUTION_ENABLED and ACB_MAP_EVOLUTION_SCHEDULE
This integrates map evolution into the bot evolver's deployment,
allowing weekly automated map evolution based on engagement scores
as specified in plan §14.6.

b.bot_id was selected without being in the GROUP BY clause or wrapped
in an aggregate, causing a Postgres error on live export. Replaced with
a correlated subquery that finds the highest-rated bot per island.

- Add NashMixture and MetaWeaknesses fields to meta.Description and
compute them from island population proportions (§10.2 PSRO)
- Update behaviorDistance to support N-D vectors for 4-D MAP-Elites
grid (aggression, economy, exploration, formation)
- Wire NashMixture/MetaWeaknesses through FromMetaDescription converter
so they actually reach the LLM prompt (was dead code before)
- Align LLM prompt with plan §15.1/§15.5: correct combat rules
(focus-fire), fog of war, HTTP protocol section, Nash mixture target
- Fix diversity normalization from sqrt(2) (2-D) to 2.0 (4-D max)
- Rename handleUIFeedback to handleCreateFeedback (§13.6 naming)
- Update tests for new fields and corrected prompt text

- Add transcript panel with turn-by-turn summaries generated from replay events
- Each turn shows: player moves, combat, deaths, captures, energy collection, spawns, win probability
- Add 'T' key shortcut to toggle transcript panel
- Panel supports three view modes: All Turns, ±10 Turns from Current, Recent 20 Turns
- Click on transcript entry to jump to that turn
- Current turn is highlighted in transcript with smooth scroll
- Panel content is selectable/copyable for screen reader users
- Transcript generation logic already existed in replay-viewer.ts; this adds the UI
- Transcript button slides in from right side of screen

Changed RetirementCheckInterval from 1 hour to 24 hours to align
with the 7-day low-rating rule specified in §10.8. The retirement
automation is already fully implemented:
- startRetirementTicker: runs periodic checks (now daily)
- EnforcePolicy: retires bots below rating threshold (800) for 7
consecutive days, enforces 50-bot population cap
- queryConsecutiveLowRating: uses rating_history table to track
consecutive days below threshold
- RetireBot: handles K8s manifest deletion via declarative-config
- TestEnforcePolicy_CapEnforcement: integration test for cap enforcement

- Add ReplayPlayer to type imports in replay-viewer.ts
- Add explicit type annotation for entry parameter in replay.ts transcript map
- Fixes TypeScript compilation errors for §15.3 screen reader transcript feature
- SeasonID and RulesVersion already present in engine/types.go Config struct
- Worker already populates from active season row via DB join
- Config embedded in VisibleState sent to bots each turn (including turn 0)
- All starter kits (go, python, rust, java, csharp) already expose and log fields
- Add season_id/rules_version logging to JavaScript starter on turn 0
- TypeScript Config interface already includes season_id and rules_version

Per plan §10.8 (deployment pipeline) and §9.8 (Argo Workflows):
- Add waitForWorkflowCompletion() that polls Argo Workflow API
- Add getWorkflowStatus() to fetch workflow phase/status
- Update Promote() to wait for workflow completion before inserting bot record
- Update Promote() to wait for K8s deployment readiness (waitForDeployment)
- Update triggerArgoWorkflow() to return workflow name for polling
- Add acb-evolved-bot-deploy-workflowtemplate.yml to manifests
The promotion flow now:
1. Writes bot source to bots/evolved/<bot_name>/
2. Commits and pushes source to git
3. Triggers Argo WorkflowTemplate
4. Waits for workflow completion (build + manifest commit)
5. Waits for K8s deployment to be ready
6. Inserts bot record into bots table
7. Updates programs table with bot_id/bot_name
This ensures evolved bots have running containers before being marked active.
Replace random 2-player pairing with the full §6.1 algorithm:
- Seed selection: bot with oldest last-match timestamp (tiebreak: lowest bot ID)
- Format selection: seed's least-played player count among {2, 3, 4, 6}
- Opponent selection: Pareto 80%/16-rank skill proximity + oldest last-pairing
with seed + fewest 24h games for game-count balance
- Map selection: least-recently-used active map for the chosen player count,
with map_scores.last_used_at updated after each match
- Random player slot assignment for all participant counts

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.

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).

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

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):

- Fixed TestSelectBestCandidate_GoHttpBonus: HTTP bonus (1.5x) on 150-char code
(225 score) doesn't beat 500-char plain text (500 score). Test now expects
the longer code to win.
- Fixed TestScoreCandidate_Bonuses: adjusted minScore expectations to match
actual code lengths with 1.5x bonus applied.
- Fixed TestBehaviorDistance: use epsilon comparison for floating-point
precision instead of exact equality. sqrt(2) ≈ 1.414214 is not exactly
representable in floating-point.
