# NEO-48 — Implementation plan
## Story reference

| **Key** | NEO-48 |
| **Title** | E2.M3: Perk state GET + branch selection POST + Bruno |
| **Linear** | https://linear.app/neon-sprawl/issue/NEO-48/e2m3-perk-state-get-branch-selection-post-bruno |

| **Branch** | `NEO-48-perk-state-get-branch-selection-post-bruno` |
| **Blocked by** | [NEO-47](https://linear.app/neon-sprawl/issue/NEO-47) — **Done** on `main` (`PerkUnlockEngine`, `IPlayerPerkStateStore`, `PerkUnlockReasonCodes`). |
## Kickoff clarifications
| Topic | Question | Resolution |
|--------|----------|------------|
| **POST URL** | Same resource path as GET vs dedicated sub-path? | **User:** **`POST /game/players/{id}/perk-state`** (same as GET; mirrors skill-progression / hotbar-loadout). |
| **POST success body** | Include unlock events from `PerkUnlockEngine`? | **User:** **Yes**`selected: true` + full **`perkState`** snapshot + **`unlockedEvents[]`** (mirrors NEO-38 `levelUps` on grant). |
| **GET JSON shape** | Nested maps vs arrays? | **Agent (repo pattern):** serialize branch picks as a **`branchPicks`** array of `{ skillId, picks: [{ tierIndex, branchId }] }` (ordinal sort by `skillId`; picks sorted by `tierIndex`). **`unlockedPerkIds`** as a sorted string array. Internal `PerkStateSnapshot` mapping only — no rename of persisted fields. |
| **Deny envelope** | Field names for success/deny? | **Agent (NEO-38 mirror):** HTTP **200** with **`selected`** (`true`/`false`), optional **`reasonCode`** (stable codes from `PerkUnlockReasonCodes`), and authoritative **`perkState`** on both paths. **400** for missing/wrong `schemaVersion`; **404** when player absent from position state (same gate as skill-progression GET). |
| **Telemetry at HTTP** | Duplicate NEO-49 hook comments on POST? | **No** — [NEO-49 plan](NEO-49-implementation-plan.md): engine `TryUnlockPerks` is the authoritative hook; HTTP calls `TrySelectBranch` and surfaces returned `Events` only in JSON. |
## Goal, scope, and out-of-scope
**Goal:** Versioned HTTP **GET** read model and **POST** branch selection for per-player perk state, delegating all rules to **`PerkUnlockEngine`** from NEO-47. Match NEO-37/NEO-38 versioning, player gate, and structured deny patterns.
**In scope (from Linear):**
- **`GET /game/players/{id}/perk-state`** — `schemaVersion` **1** JSON: branch picks + unlocked perk ids.
- **`POST /game/players/{id}/perk-state`** — commit one branch pick; structured success/deny; stable **`reasonCode`** values from engine.
- Bruno under **`bruno/neon-sprawl-server/perk-state/`** (GET + POST happy + deny).
- **`server/README.md`** section; API integration tests (AAA).
- **`docs/manual-qa/NEO-48.md`** during implementation (repo convention for HTTP stories).
**Out of scope (from Linear):**
- Godot client HUD.
- Applying perk `effectKind` in gather/craft.
- New telemetry hooks (NEO-49 complete).
- Respec; gig perks.
## Acceptance criteria checklist
- [x] `GET /game/players/{id}/perk-state` returns versioned JSON v1.
- [x] `POST` branch selection applies NEO-47 unlock rules; structured denies on invalid tier/branch.
- [x] Bruno collection `bruno/neon-sprawl-server/perk-state/` (GET + POST + deny).
- [x] `server/README.md` section for perk-state endpoints.
- [x] Unit/integration tests (AAA) for API happy/deny paths.
## Technical approach
1. **Routes (`Game/Mastery/PerkStateApi.cs`):**
- **`GET /game/players/{id}/perk-state`** — trim id; **404** if `!IPositionStateStore.TryGetPosition`; else **200** + `PerkStateSnapshotResponse` built from `IPlayerPerkStateStore.GetSnapshot`.
- **`POST /game/players/{id}/perk-state`** — body `PerkBranchSelectRequest` (`schemaVersion` **1**, `skillId`, `tierIndex`, `branchId`). **400** if body null or `schemaVersion != 1`. **404** same player gate. Call **`perkUnlockEngine.TrySelectBranch(trimmedId, skillId, tierIndex, branchId)`**; map outcome to `PerkBranchSelectResponse`.
2. **Snapshot builder:** `PerkStateApi.BuildSnapshot(playerId, IPlayerPerkStateStore)` maps `PerkStateSnapshot` → JSON DTO:
- **`branchPicks`:** one entry per skill with any picks; each **`picks`** row has `tierIndex` + `branchId`.
- **`unlockedPerkIds`:** sorted ordinal list from set.
- Preserve **`schemaVersion` 1**, **`playerId`**.
3. **POST success (`selected: true`):**
- **`perkState`:** same shape as GET body (without re-wrapping `playerId` if shared type — use shared `PerkStateSnapshotResponse` or embed identical fields).
- **`unlockedEvents`:** map each `PerkUnlockEvent``{ perkId, skillId, tierIndex, branchId, source }` where **`source`** is JSON string **`branch_pick`** | **`level_up`** (snake_case; maps `PerkUnlockSource.BranchPick` / `LevelUp`). Empty array when tier-1 pick unlocks no perks yet.
4. **POST deny (`selected: false`):**
- **`reasonCode`:** pass through engine `ReasonCode` (`unknown_track`, `unknown_tier`, `unknown_branch`, `level_too_low`, `branch_already_chosen`, `tier_branch_not_selectable`, `player_not_found`).
- **`perkState`:** authoritative snapshot from outcome (unchanged on deny except where engine returns updated snapshot — use `outcome.Snapshot` always).
- **`unlockedEvents`:** empty array on deny.
5. **Wire-up:** `app.MapPerkStateApi()` in **`Program.cs`** after mastery/perk DI is available (`PerkUnlockEngine` already registered in `AddPerkStateStore`). No new store or engine logic in this story.
6. **Bruno / README / manual QA:**
- Sequence: optional **`POST …/skill-progression`** grant to reach salvage level 2, then **POST perk-state** tier-1 pick, **GET** verifies pick; deny example: second pick or `level_too_low` without grant.
- Document paths, schema fields, reason codes, and link to this plan + **`docs/manual-qa/NEO-48.md`**.
7. **Module doc (implementation batch):** Update [E2_M3](../decomposition/modules/E2_M3_MasteryAndPerkUnlocks.md) NEO-47 handoff line to note HTTP landed; refresh [documentation_and_implementation_alignment.md](../decomposition/modules/documentation_and_implementation_alignment.md) E2.M3 row when complete.
## Files to add
| Path | Purpose |
|------|---------|
| `server/NeonSprawl.Server/Game/Mastery/PerkStateDtos.cs` | `PerkStateSnapshotResponse`, `PerkBranchPickTrackJson`, `PerkBranchPickRowJson`, `PerkBranchSelectRequest`, `PerkBranchSelectResponse`, `PerkUnlockedEventJson`. |
| `server/NeonSprawl.Server/Game/Mastery/PerkStateApi.cs` | `MapPerkStateApi`, `BuildSnapshot`, GET/POST handlers. |
| `server/NeonSprawl.Server.Tests/Game/Mastery/PerkStateApiTests.cs` | In-memory host: GET empty defaults; POST tier-1 happy after XP grant; deny `level_too_low` / `branch_already_chosen`; GET reflects POST; **404** / **400** gates. |
| `bruno/neon-sprawl-server/perk-state/folder.bru` | Collection folder metadata. |
| `bruno/neon-sprawl-server/perk-state/Get perk state.bru` | GET smoke + schema assertions. |
| `bruno/neon-sprawl-server/perk-state/Post branch select tier1.bru` | Happy path (docs: grant salvage XP first if needed). |
| `bruno/neon-sprawl-server/perk-state/Post branch select deny level too low.bru` | Deny without level gate. |
| `docs/manual-qa/NEO-48.md` | Curl/Bruno checklist for GET/POST/deny. |
## Files to modify
| Path | Rationale |
|------|-----------|
| `server/NeonSprawl.Server/Program.cs` | Register **`MapPerkStateApi()`**. |
| `server/README.md` | New **Perk state (NEO-48)** section: GET/POST paths, schema v1, `selected`/`reasonCode`/`unlockedEvents`, reason code table (link `PerkUnlockReasonCodes`), Bruno path, manual QA link. |
| `docs/decomposition/modules/E2_M3_MasteryAndPerkUnlocks.md` | Note NEO-48 HTTP landed (replace “HTTP is NEO-48” pending wording in NEO-47 handoff). |
| `docs/decomposition/modules/documentation_and_implementation_alignment.md` | E2.M3 row: NEO-48 perk-state HTTP. |
| `docs/decomposition/modules/module_dependency_register.md` | E2.M3 note: NEO-48 planned → landed when shipped. |
## Tests
| Test file | What it covers |
|-----------|----------------|
| `PerkStateApiTests.cs` | **AAA** integration via `InMemoryWebApplicationFactory`: **GET** returns v1 empty state for dev player; **POST** after `POST …/skill-progression` grant (100 XP → level 2) selects `scrap_efficiency` tier 1 → `selected: true`, pick in **GET**; **POST** deny `level_too_low` without grant; **POST** deny `branch_already_chosen` on second pick; **404** unknown player; **400** bad `schemaVersion`. Optional: **POST** at level 4+ includes non-empty **`unlockedEvents`** when tier-2 perk unlocks on same request (path-auto). |
| Existing `PerkUnlockEngineTests.cs` | No changes required — engine rules remain covered; API tests are thin HTTP mapping. |
Bruno + **`docs/manual-qa/NEO-48.md`** supplement automated coverage. Postgres persistence of picks is already covered by **`PerkStatePersistenceIntegrationTests`** (NEO-47); no new Postgres API test unless a regression gap appears during implementation.
## Open questions / risks
- **Field name `selected` vs `granted`:** Chosen to distinguish perk branch pick from XP grant; document clearly in README to avoid client confusion.
- **Large `unlockedEvents` batches:** Prototype catalog emits at most a handful per request; no pagination needed.
- **Concurrent POST picks:** Same as NEO-47 store semantics; no new transactional requirement for this story.
## Decisions
| Decision | Rationale |
|----------|-----------|
| POST on same path as GET | User choice; matches skill-progression / hotbar. |
| Include `unlockedEvents` on success | User choice; parallels `levelUps`; supports client/QA without parsing perk id diffs. |
| Branch picks as sorted arrays in JSON | Stable serialization; consistent with skill-progression “unordered by contract, sorted for bytes” pattern. |
| Reuse NEO-47 `reasonCode` strings verbatim | README + tests + Bruno share one vocabulary with engine. |
