Next Session Plan - Phase 3: Substitution System Completion

Current Status: Phase 3 - ~95% Complete (Only Substitution WebSocket Events Remain) Last Commit: beb939b - "CLAUDE: Fix all unit test failures and implement 100% test requirement" Date: 2025-11-04 Remaining Work: 5% (Substitution WebSocket events only)

---

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: ~97% 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): ✅ 80% (Unit & integration tests remain)

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:

⚾ > 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):

• 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

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:

from app.core.substitution_manager import SubstitutionManager

2. Initialize in GameEngine (if not already there):

# In GameEngine.__init__()
self.substitution_manager = SubstitutionManager(self.db_ops)

3. Add event handler for pinch hitter:

@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:

@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:

# Manual test with terminal client
python -m terminal_client
# Then in REPL, test substitution flow

Acceptance Criteria:

• request_pinch_hitter event handler implemented ✅
• request_defensive_replacement event handler implemented ✅
• request_pitching_change event handler implemented ✅
• get_lineup event handler implemented ✅
• Successful substitutions broadcast to all clients ✅

---

Verification Steps

After completing all tasks:

1. Run all tests:

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:

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:

-- 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:

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

Substitution system now 100% complete and production-ready.

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
