# Next Session Plan - Phase 3: Substitution System Completion

**Current Status**: Phase 3 - 100% Complete (Substitution System Fully Tested)
**Last Commit**: `e147ab1` - "CLAUDE: Phase 3F - Substitution System WebSocket Events"
**Date**: 2025-11-04
**Remaining Work**: 0% (All substitution system work complete)

---

## Quick Start for Next AI Agent

### 🎯 Where to Begin
1. Read this entire document first
2. Review `.claude/implementation/SUBSTITUTION_SYSTEM_SUMMARY.md` for architecture overview
3. Review core logic files in "Files to Review Before Starting" section
4. Start with Task 1: WebSocket Events (highest user impact)
5. Run test commands after each task

### 📍 Current Context

We have completed **Phase 3E (X-Check system)** including GameState refactoring, position ratings integration, Redis caching, and comprehensive testing infrastructure. The X-Check system is **100% production-ready** with terminal client testing support.

We also completed the **core business logic** for the substitution system (1,027 lines). The validation rules, database operations, and state management are fully implemented and follow the established DB-first pattern. What remains is **integration only** (WebSocket events for real-time gameplay).

**Phase 3 Overall Progress**: 100% complete ✅
- Phase 3A-D (X-Check Core): ✅ 100%
- Phase 3E-Prep (GameState Refactor): ✅ 100%
- Phase 3E-Main (Position Ratings): ✅ 100%
- Phase 3E-Final (Redis/WebSocket): ✅ 100%
- Phase 3E Testing (Terminal Client): ✅ 100%
- Phase 3F (Substitutions): ✅ 100% (All tests complete!)

### 2. Substitution System Core Logic (d1619b4) - **Just Completed**

   #### SubstitutionRules - Validation Logic (345 lines)
   - `backend/app/core/substitution_rules.py` - Complete validation for all substitution types
   - **Methods**:
     - `validate_pinch_hitter()` - Validates pinch hitter substitutions
     - `validate_defensive_replacement()` - Validates defensive replacements
     - `validate_pitching_change()` - Validates pitching changes
     - `validate_double_switch()` - Validates complex double switches (2 simultaneous subs)
   - **Rules Enforced**:
     - No re-entry (once removed, cannot return)
     - Roster eligibility (must be on roster)
     - Active status (substitute must be inactive)
     - Current batter check (pinch hitter only for current batter)
     - Minimum batters faced (pitcher must face 1 batter unless injury)
     - Position validation (valid baseball positions)
     - Timing checks (warnings for mid-inning changes)

   #### SubstitutionManager - Orchestration Logic (552 lines)
   - `backend/app/core/substitution_manager.py` - Orchestrates DB-first pattern
   - **Methods**:
     - `pinch_hit()` - Execute pinch hitter substitution
     - `defensive_replace()` - Execute defensive replacement
     - `change_pitcher()` - Execute pitching change
   - **Pattern**: Validate (in-memory) → Update DATABASE FIRST → Update state SECOND → Return result
   - **Features**:
     - Comprehensive error handling with error codes
     - Automatic lineup cache updates
     - Current player references updated (batter/pitcher/catcher in GameState)
     - Detailed logging at every step

   #### Database Operations (+115 lines)
   - `backend/app/database/operations.py` - Added substitution-specific operations
   - **Methods**:
     - `create_substitution()` - Marks old player inactive, creates new lineup entry
     - `get_eligible_substitutes()` - Gets inactive players (potential subs)
   - **Database Fields Used**:
     - `is_active`: Tracks current vs benched
     - `is_starter`: Original vs substitute
     - `entered_inning`: When player entered
     - `replacing_id`: Links to replaced player
     - `after_play`: Exact play number of substitution

   #### Model Enhancements (+15 lines)
   - `backend/app/models/game_models.py` - Added helper method
   - `get_player_by_card_id()` in TeamLineupState - Find player by card/player ID

### 3. Documentation
   - `.claude/implementation/SUBSTITUTION_SYSTEM_SUMMARY.md` - Complete architecture and status doc
   - Detailed implementation notes, integration points, testing strategy

### 4. Phase 3E-Prep: GameState Refactoring (2025-11-04) - **COMPLETED** ✅

   #### Critical Architectural Improvement (cf7cc23, 76e0142, bb78de2, e6bd66e)
   - **Problem**: GameState had inconsistent player references (runners were objects, batter/pitcher/catcher were IDs)
   - **Solution**: Refactored all player references to use full `LineupPlayerState` objects

   #### Files Modified (7 files):
   - `backend/app/models/game_models.py` - Changed `current_batter_lineup_id` → `current_batter: LineupPlayerState`
   - `backend/app/core/game_engine.py` - Updated `_prepare_next_play()` to set full objects
   - `backend/app/core/play_resolver.py` - Updated all references to use `.lineup_id` accessor
   - `backend/app/core/runner_advancement.py` - Fixed 17 references to new structure (cf7cc23)
   - `backend/app/core/state_manager.py` - Fixed game recovery (e6bd66e)
   - `backend/terminal_client/display.py` - Updated status display
   - `backend/terminal_client/repl.py` - Updated REPL commands

   #### Benefits Realized:
   - ✅ Consistent API for all player references
   - ✅ Self-contained GameState (no external lookups needed)
   - ✅ Simplified PlayResolver (direct access to player data)
   - ✅ Enables position ratings integration (Phase 3E-Main prerequisite)

   #### Bug Fixes Included:
   - DO3 (double-3) batter advancement fix (76e0142) - Batter now correctly reaches 2B, not 3B
   - Runner advancement for new GameState structure (cf7cc23) - Fixed AttributeError
   - Game recovery for new structure (e6bd66e) - State persistence working

   #### Tests: 34 runner advancement tests passing, all integration tests passing

### 5. Phase 3E Testing: X-Check Terminal Integration (2025-11-04) - **COMPLETED** ✅

   #### Terminal Client Enhancements (bb78de2, 8fb740f)
   - **New Feature**: `resolve_with x-check <position>` command
     - Complete X-Check resolution with defense tables and error charts
     - Shows all resolution steps with audit trail
     - Works with actual player ratings from PD API

   #### X-Check Commands in Help System (8fb740f):
   - `roll_jump` / `test_jump` - Jump roll testing
   - `roll_fielding` / `test_fielding` - Fielding roll testing
   - `test_location` - Hit location testing
   - `rollback` - Undo last play
   - `force_wild_pitch` / `force_passed_ball` - Force specific outcomes

   #### Usage Example:
   ```bash
   ⚾ > defensive
   ⚾ > offensive
   ⚾ > resolve_with x-check SS    # Test X-Check to shortstop
   ```

   #### Documentation Updates (c7b376d):
   - `backend/app/models/CLAUDE.md` - Documented GameState refactoring
   - `backend/terminal_client/CLAUDE.md` - Documented X-Check testing features

   #### Files Modified (4 files):
   - `backend/app/core/game_engine.py` - Added xcheck_position parameter
   - `backend/terminal_client/commands.py` - Updated resolve_play() for X-Check
   - `backend/terminal_client/help_text.py` - Added X-Check documentation
   - `backend/terminal_client/repl.py` - Added X-Check parsing

### 6. Test Infrastructure & Quality Assurance (2025-11-04) - **COMPLETED** ✅

   #### 100% Test Requirement Policy (beb939b)
   - **New Policy**: All unit tests must pass before commits
   - Documented in `backend/CLAUDE.md` and `tests/CLAUDE.md`

   #### Git Hook System Created:
   - `.git-hooks/pre-commit` - Automatically runs all unit tests before each commit
   - `.git-hooks/install-hooks.sh` - Easy installation script
   - `.git-hooks/README.md` - Complete hook documentation

   #### Test Fixes (beb939b):
   - Fixed DiceSystem API to accept team_id/player_id parameters
   - Fixed dice roll history timing issue
   - Fixed terminal client mock for X-Check parameters
   - Fixed result chart test mocks with missing pitching fields
   - Fixed flaky test (groundball_a exists in both batting/pitching)

   #### Test Status:
   - **Total Tests**: 679 tests (up from 609)
   - **Unit Tests**: 609/609 passing (100%)
   - **Integration Tests**: Known asyncpg connection issues (documented)

## Key Architecture Decisions Made

### 1. **DB-First Pattern for Substitutions**
Following established game engine pattern:
```
1. Validate (in-memory, fast)
2. Update DATABASE (source of truth)
3. Update STATE (cache)
4. Broadcast (WebSocket in handler)
```
**Rationale**: Database survives server restarts; in-memory state is just cache

### 2. **Immutable Lineup History**
- Never delete lineup entries
- Use `is_active` flag for current lineup
- `replacing_id` creates complete audit trail

**Benefits**: Can reconstruct game at any point; rollback support; complete substitution history

### 3. **Position Flexibility (MVP)**
- Don't enforce strict position eligibility in MVP
- Any player can play any position
- Can add validation post-MVP

**Rationale**: Simplifies MVP; users know their rosters; reduces complexity

### 4. **Batting Order Inheritance**
- Pinch hitter takes batting order of replaced player
- Defensive replacement keeps batting order if in lineup
- Double switch allows batting order changes

**Rationale**: Matches real baseball rules

### 5. **Error Codes for All Validation Failures**
Every validation failure returns both human-readable message and machine-readable code:
- `NOT_CURRENT_BATTER`, `PLAYER_ALREADY_OUT`, `NOT_IN_ROSTER`, `ALREADY_ACTIVE`, etc.

**Rationale**: Frontend can show appropriate UI based on error type

---

## Blockers Encountered 🚧

**None** - development proceeded smoothly.

Core logic implementation was straightforward following established patterns. All validation rules are clear and testable. Database operations follow proven async session pattern.

---

## Outstanding Questions ❓

### 1. **Should we implement double switch in MVP?**
**Context**: Double switch is complex (2 simultaneous subs with batting order swap). Core logic exists but no WebSocket events yet.
**Decision Needed**: MVP or post-MVP?
**Recommendation**: **Post-MVP** - rarely used, complex UX, single subs cover 95% of use cases

### 2. **Position eligibility validation - when to add?**
**Context**: Currently any player can play any position (MVP simplification).
**Decision Needed**: Add position eligibility check post-MVP?
**Implication**: Would require position lists on player models, more complex validation

### 3. **Automatic pitcher fatigue system - scope?**
**Context**: Database has `is_fatigued` flag on Lineup model.
**Decision Needed**: Implement automatic fatigue detection or manual only?
**Recommendation**: **Manual only for MVP** - managers know their staff better than algorithm

## Tasks for Next Session

### Task 1: WebSocket Substitution Events - ✅ **COMPLETED** (2025-11-04)

**File(s)**: `backend/app/websocket/handlers.py`

**Goal**: Add WebSocket event handlers for pinch hitting, defensive replacements, and pitching changes. Enable real-time substitution notifications to all game clients.

**Changes**:

1. **Import SubstitutionManager** at top of file:
```python
from app.core.substitution_manager import SubstitutionManager
```

2. **Initialize in GameEngine** (if not already there):
```python
# In GameEngine.__init__()
self.substitution_manager = SubstitutionManager(self.db_ops)
```

3. **Add event handler for pinch hitter**:
```python
@sio.event
async def request_pinch_hitter(sid, data):
    """
    Request pinch hitter substitution.

    Data:
        - game_id: UUID
        - player_out_lineup_id: int
        - player_in_card_id: int
        - team_id: int
    """
    try:
        game_id = UUID(data['game_id'])

        # Verify user has access to game and team
        # TODO: Add authorization check

        result = await game_engine.substitution_manager.pinch_hit(
            game_id=game_id,
            player_out_lineup_id=data['player_out_lineup_id'],
            player_in_card_id=data['player_in_card_id'],
            team_id=data['team_id']
        )

        if result.success:
            # Broadcast to all clients in game
            await manager.emit_to_game(
                game_id,
                'player_substituted',
                {
                    'type': 'pinch_hitter',
                    'player_out_lineup_id': result.player_out_lineup_id,
                    'player_in_card_id': result.player_in_card_id,
                    'new_lineup_id': result.new_lineup_id,
                    'position': result.new_position,
                    'batting_order': result.new_batting_order,
                    'team_id': data['team_id']
                }
            )

            # Send success to requester
            await sio.emit('substitution_confirmed', {
                'new_lineup_id': result.new_lineup_id
            }, room=sid)
        else:
            # Send error to requester
            await sio.emit('substitution_error', {
                'error': result.error_message,
                'code': result.error_code
            }, room=sid)

    except Exception as e:
        logger.error(f"Error in pinch hitter request: {e}", exc_info=True)
        await sio.emit('error', {'message': str(e)}, room=sid)
```

4. **Add similar handlers for**:
   - `request_defensive_replacement` (similar structure)
   - `request_pitching_change` (similar structure)

5. **Add get_lineup event** for UI to request current lineup:
```python
@sio.event
async def get_lineup(sid, data):
    """Get current active lineup for a team."""
    try:
        game_id = UUID(data['game_id'])
        team_id = data['team_id']

        lineup = state_manager.get_lineup(game_id, team_id)

        if lineup:
            await sio.emit('lineup_data', {
                'team_id': team_id,
                'players': [p.model_dump() for p in lineup.players if p.is_active]
            }, room=sid)
        else:
            await sio.emit('error', {
                'message': f'Lineup not found for team {team_id}'
            }, room=sid)

    except Exception as e:
        logger.error(f"Error getting lineup: {e}", exc_info=True)
        await sio.emit('error', {'message': str(e)}, room=sid)
```

**Files to Update**:
- `backend/app/websocket/handlers.py` - Add 4 event handlers

**Test Command**:
```bash
# Manual test with terminal client
python -m terminal_client
# Then in REPL, test substitution flow
```

**Acceptance Criteria**:
- [x] `request_pinch_hitter` event handler implemented ✅
- [x] `request_defensive_replacement` event handler implemented ✅
- [x] `request_pitching_change` event handler implemented ✅
- [x] `get_lineup` event handler implemented ✅
- [x] Successful substitutions broadcast to all clients ✅
- [x] Errors sent only to requester ✅
- [x] No crashes on invalid data ✅

**Completion Notes**:
- 600+ lines of event handler code added
- All handlers follow established pattern (validate → execute → broadcast)
- Error codes: MISSING_FIELD, INVALID_FORMAT, NOT_CURRENT_BATTER, etc.
- Documentation: 350+ lines added to WebSocket CLAUDE.md
- Event summary table updated with 8 new events

## Verification Steps

After completing all tasks:

### 1. Run all tests:
```bash
cd backend
source venv/bin/activate

# Unit tests
pytest tests/unit/core/test_substitution_rules.py -v

# Integration tests
pytest tests/integration/test_substitution_manager.py -v

# All tests
pytest -v
```

### 2. Manual testing with terminal client:
```bash
python -m terminal_client

# In REPL:
⚾ > new_game
⚾ > status  # Note current batter lineup_id
⚾ > # Manual WebSocket test would go here (needs WebSocket client)
```

### 3. Verify database state:
```sql
-- Check lineup entries
SELECT id, card_id, position, batting_order, is_active, is_starter, entered_inning, replacing_id
FROM lineups
WHERE game_id = '<test_game_id>'
ORDER BY id;

-- Verify inactive players
SELECT * FROM lineups WHERE is_active = false;
```

### 4. Commit changes:
```bash
git add backend/app/websocket/handlers.py
git add backend/tests/unit/core/test_substitution_rules.py
git add backend/tests/integration/test_substitution_manager.py
git add .claude/implementation/SUBSTITUTION_API_REFERENCE.md
git commit -m "CLAUDE: Phase 3 - Complete Substitution System with WebSocket & Tests

- Add WebSocket event handlers for substitutions
- Comprehensive unit tests for validation rules (37+ tests)
- Integration tests for full DB + state flow (8+ tests)
- Complete API documentation with examples

## Context for AI Agent Resume

**If the next agent needs to understand the bigger picture**:
- Overall project: See `@prd-web-scorecard-1.1.md` and `@CLAUDE.md`
- Architecture: See `@.claude/implementation/00-index.md`
- Current phase details: See `@.claude/implementation/03-gameplay-features.md`
- Substitution system: See `@.claude/implementation/SUBSTITUTION_SYSTEM_SUMMARY.md`

**Critical files in current focus area**:
1. `backend/app/core/substitution_rules.py` - All validation logic (345 lines)
2. `backend/app/core/substitution_manager.py` - Orchestration (552 lines)
3. `backend/app/database/operations.py` - DB operations (with substitution methods)
4. `backend/app/websocket/handlers.py` - Will add event handlers here
5. `backend/app/core/game_engine.py` - GameEngine class
6. `backend/app/core/state_manager.py` - StateManager singleton
7. `backend/app/models/game_models.py` - Game state models
8. `backend/app/models/db_models.py` - Lineup model with substitution fields
9. `.claude/implementation/SUBSTITUTION_SYSTEM_SUMMARY.md` - Architecture doc
10. `backend/tests/unit/core/` - Where to add unit tests

**What NOT to do**:
- Don't modify core validation logic - it's complete and follows baseball rules correctly
- Don't change DB-first pattern - it's critical for data integrity
- Don't add position eligibility validation yet - deferred to post-MVP
- Don't implement double switch WebSocket events - deferred to post-MVP
- Don't change database schema - all fields needed are already there

**Patterns we've established**:
- DB-first: validate → DB → state → broadcast
- Error codes for all validation failures
- Comprehensive logging at every step
- Immutable lineup history (never delete, use is_active flag)
- Batting order inheritance for substitutions

---

**Estimated Time for Next Session**: 6-7 hours (2-3 WebSocket + 2 unit tests + 2 integration + 1 docs)
**Priority**: Medium (completes substitution system, not blocking other work)
**Blocking Other Work**: No (X-Check and core game engine are complete)
**Next Milestone After This**: Phase 4 - Spectator Mode & Polish OR Phase 3 - AI Opponent (choose based on priority)
