+# NowChessSystems — Wiki
+
+_Generated 2026-04-12 — re-run `npx codesight --wiki` if the codebase has changed._
+
+Structural map compiled from source code via AST. No LLM — deterministic, 200ms.
+
+> **How to use safely:** These articles tell you WHERE things live and WHAT exists. They do not show full implementation logic. Always read the actual source files before implementing new features or making changes. Never infer how a function works from the wiki alone.
+
+## Articles
+
+- [Overview](./overview.md)
+
+## Quick Stats
+
+- Routes: **0**
+- Models: **0**
+- Components: **0**
+- Env vars: **0** required, **0** with defaults
+
+## How to Use
+
+- **New session:** read `index.md` (this file) for orientation — WHERE things are
+- **Architecture question:** read `overview.md` (~500 tokens)
+- **Domain question:** read the relevant article, then **read those source files**
+- **Database question:** read `database.md`, then read the actual schema files
+- **Before implementing anything:** read the source files listed in the article
+- **Full source context:** read `.codesight/CODESIGHT.md`
+
+## What the Wiki Does Not Cover
+
+These exist in your codebase but are **not** reflected in wiki articles:
+- Routes registered dynamically at runtime (loops, plugin factories, `app.use(dynamicRouter)`)
+- Internal routes from npm packages (e.g. Better Auth's built-in `/api/auth/*` endpoints)
+- WebSocket and SSE handlers
+- Raw SQL tables not declared through an ORM
+- Computed or virtual fields absent from schema declarations
+- TypeScript types that are not actual database columns
+- Routes marked `[inferred]` were detected via regex and may have lower precision
+- gRPC, tRPC, and GraphQL resolvers may be partially captured
+
+When in doubt, search the source. The wiki is a starting point, not a complete inventory.

+## Instructions for Claude Code
+
+### Two-Step Rule (mandatory)
+**Step 1 — Orient:** Use wiki articles to find WHERE things live.
+**Step 2 — Verify:** Read the actual source files listed in the wiki article BEFORE writing any code.
+
+Wiki articles are structural summaries extracted by AST. They show routes, models, and file locations.
+They do NOT show full function logic, middleware internals, or dynamic runtime behavior.
+**Never write or modify code based solely on wiki content — always read source files first.**
+
+Read in order at session start:
+1. `.codesight/wiki/index.md` — orientation map (~200 tokens)
+2. `.codesight/wiki/overview.md` — architecture overview (~500 tokens)
+3. Domain article (e.g. `.codesight/wiki/auth.md`) → check "Source Files" section → read those files
+4. `.codesight/CODESIGHT.md` — full context map for deep exploration
+
+Routes marked `[inferred]` in wiki articles were detected via regex — verify against source before trusting.
+If any source file shows ⚠ in the wiki, re-run `codesight --wiki` before proceeding.
+
+Or use the codesight MCP server for on-demand queries:
+- `codesight_get_wiki_article` — read a specific wiki article by name
+- `codesight_get_wiki_index` — get the wiki index
+- `codesight_get_summary` — quick project overview
+- `codesight_get_routes --prefix /api/users` — filtered routes
+- `codesight_get_blast_radius --file src/lib/db.ts` — impact analysis before changes
+- `codesight_get_schema --model users` — specific model details
+
+Only open specific files after consulting codesight context. This saves ~16.893 tokens per conversation.
+
+## graphify
+
+This project has a graphify knowledge graph at graphify-out/.
+
+Rules:
+- Before answering architecture or codebase questions, read graphify-out/GRAPH_REPORT.md for god nodes and community structure
+- If graphify-out/wiki/index.md exists, navigate it instead of reading raw files
+- After modifying code files in this session, run `python3 -c "from graphify.watch import _rebuild_code; from pathlib import Path; _rebuild_code(Path('.'))"` to keep the graph current

+  description: |
+    REST API for the NowChess application. Designed to feel familiar to users
+    of the [lichess API](https://lichess.org/api).
+
+    ## Authentication
+    Most endpoints require a Bearer token:
+    ```
+    Authorization: Bearer <token>
+    ```
+    Authentication is reserved for future implementation — endpoints are currently
+    open unless noted otherwise.
+
+    ## Move notation
+    Moves are expressed in **UCI notation**: `{from}{to}[promotion]`
+    - Normal move: `e2e4`
+    - Capture: `d5e6`
+    - Promotion: `e7e8q` (q=queen, r=rook, b=bishop, n=knight)
+    - Castling: `e1g1` (kingside white), `e1c1` (queenside white)
+
+    ## Streaming
+    Endpoints that support streaming return **NDJSON** (newline-delimited JSON).
+    Request them with:
+    ```
+    Accept: application/x-ndjson
+    ```
+    Each line of the response is a complete JSON object. Empty lines are
+    keep-alive heartbeats.
+
+    ## Rate limiting
+    Requests that exceed the rate limit receive `429 Too Many Requests`.
+    Honour the `Retry-After` response header and wait before retrying.

lq64	9ad11fb97a	docs: NCS-36 Added an API spec for Now Chess (#25 ) Build & Test (NowChessSystems) TeamCity build finished Details ## Summary - Adds `docs/api-spec.yaml` — a full OpenAPI 3.0.3 specification for the NowChess REST API - Endpoint paths follow the lichess `board/bot` split convention (`/api/board/game/...`) to leave room for a future bot API under `/api/bot/game/...` - Covers game lifecycle, move-making, draw handling, undo/redo, legal move introspection, and FEN/PGN import/export ## Endpoints - Game: POST /api/board/game, GET /{gameId}, GET /{gameId}/stream, POST /{gameId}/resign - Move: POST /{gameId}/move/{uci}, GET /{gameId}/moves, POST /{gameId}/undo, POST /{gameId}/redo - Draw: POST /{gameId}/draw/{action} - Import: POST /import/fen, POST /import/pgn - Export: GET /{gameId}/export/fen, GET /{gameId}/export/pgn ## Test plan - [ ] Open docs/api-spec.yaml in Swagger Editor (https://editor.swagger.io) — zero validation errors expected - [ ] Verify every endpoint maps to an existing GameEngine or RuleSet method Co-authored-by: LQ63 <lkhermann@web.de> Reviewed-on: #25 Reviewed-by: Janis <janis-e@gmx.de> Co-authored-by: Leon Hermann <lq@blackhole.local> Co-committed-by: Leon Hermann <lq@blackhole.local>	2026-04-12 17:15:11 +02:00

lq64	7a045d31d7	feat: NCS-31 FastParse FEN (#22 ) Build & Test (NowChessSystems) TeamCity build finished Details Summary - Added fastparse_3:3.0.2 dependency to modules/io - Implemented FenParserFastParse as a second alternative FEN parser using FastParse, with the same public API as FenParser and FenParserCombinators - Parsers are built bottom-up using (using P[Any]) Scala 3 syntax with NoWhitespace.* to prevent implicit whitespace skipping; rank sum validation uses Pass/Fail inside .flatMap - Added FenParserFastParseTest mirroring FenParserCombinatorsTest to prove behavioural equivalence across all three implementations Test plan - All existing tests pass — FenParser, FenParserCombinators, and all other modules untouched - FenParserFastParseTest covers all cases: valid FEN, invalid color, invalid castling, invalid board shapes, en passant, rank overflow, round-trip via FenExporter - All parser logic branches genuinely covered — known scoverage gap documented in docs/unresolved.md (FastParse inline macro generates synthetic proxy methods that scoverage instruments but that never execute at runtime) Co-authored-by: LQ63 <lkhermann@web.de> Reviewed-on: #22 Reviewed-by: Janis <janis-e@gmx.de> Co-authored-by: Leon Hermann <lq@blackhole.local> Co-committed-by: Leon Hermann <lq@blackhole.local>	2026-04-08 09:32:57 +02:00
