# CLAUDE.md
## Project
Multiplayer NPC simulation game (Dwarf Fortress-inspired). Server-authoritative ECS architecture.
## Structure
- `shared/` -- Types and constants (no runtime code)
- `server/` -- Node.js + Socket.io game server with ECS
- `client/` -- Phaser 3 + TypeScript renderer
- `chars/` -- Character sprite assets (do not modify)
- `docs/plans/` -- Design and implementation docs
## Commands
- `npm install` -- install all workspace dependencies
- `npm -w server run dev` -- start server (port 3001)
- `npm -w server run test` -- run server tests (115 tests)
- `npm -w server run test:watch` -- run server tests in watch mode
- `npm -w client run dev` -- start client dev server (port 3000)
- `npm -w client run build` -- build client for production
- `npx -w shared tsc` -- rebuild shared types (required after modifying shared/src/)
## Tooling
- ESM modules throughout (`"type": "module"`)
- Server: tsx (runtime), vitest (tests)
- Client: vite (bundler), Phaser 3
- Shared: compiled to `shared/dist/` (auto-built)
## Key Entry Points
- `server/src/main.ts` -- server startup
- `server/src/game/GameLoop.ts` -- tick loop orchestration
- `server/src/spawner/appearanceGenerator.ts` -- NPC appearance + portrait feature generation
- `server/src/spawner/nameGenerator.ts` -- NPC name generation
- `server/src/spawner/statGenerator.ts` -- 3d6 stat generation for NPCs
- `server/src/systems/statHelpers.ts` -- getEffectiveStat (base + modifiers, clamped 3-18)
- `server/src/systems/statModifierSystem.ts` -- modifier decay and needs-based modifiers
- `server/src/systems/socialSystem.ts` -- NPC social interaction phases and stat integration
- `server/src/systems/relationshipSystem.ts` -- relationship delta calculation and despawn handling
- `server/src/systems/relationshipHelpers.ts` -- classify, getPartnerCap, getFriendCap, getEffectiveClassification
- `server/src/config/relationshipConfig.ts` -- tuning values for relationship system (config-driven)
- `client/src/main.ts` -- Phaser game bootstrap
- `client/src/scenes/GameScene.ts` -- main game scene (camera/avatar/follow modes)
- `client/src/sprites/CharacterCompositor.ts` -- sprite layer compositing
- `client/src/sprites/PortraitCompositor.ts` -- portrait layer compositing (data URL output)
- `client/src/ui/NpcInfoPanel.ts` -- follow-mode NPC info panel (HTML/CSS overlay)
- `shared/src/types.ts` -- protocol types
- `shared/src/constants.ts` -- game constants (incl. portrait slots, folder mapping)
## Key Conventions
- ECS components are plain data objects, systems are pure functions
- Server owns all game state; clients are renderers
- Character sprites are 48x48 per frame, 6 cols x 4 rows spritesheet layout
- Compositing: skins + accessories layered in z-order, cached as single textures
- Portraits: skin-specific layers composited client-side, exported as data URLs for HTML panel
- Portrait assets are in `chars/baseman/accessories/portraits/` organized by skin folder (skin01-07)
- Sprite skin `shape00_skinXX` maps to portrait folder `skin{XX+1}`, base file `skin{XX}.png`
- Shared types ensure client/server protocol agreement
- Systems run in order: statModifier -> needsDecay -> npcBrain -> social -> relationship -> movement -> broadcast
- Follow mode shows EarthBound-styled NPC info panel with live-updating needs bars and stats
- NPC stats use 3d6 generation (range 3-18, bell curve): 5 physical (STR/DEX/CON/INT/PER) + 5 personality (SOC/COU/CUR/EMP/TMP)
- Stats have transient modifiers (needs-based permanent + event-based decaying); effective value = base + modifiers, clamped 3-18
- Base stats are floats (drift slowly from experience); `getEffectiveStat` floors to int for gameplay use
- Wire protocol sends effective (computed) stats only; modifiers stay server-side
- Relationships: per-NPC Map<EntityId, RelationshipData> component, lazy-initialized on first encounter
- Relationship values range -100 to 100, classified into tiers (Partner/Friend/Acquaintance/Stranger/Wary/Rival/Enemy/Nemesis)
- Relationship deltas use diminishing returns and blended asymmetry (30% shared + 70% individual outcome)
- Stats influence relationships: empathy (positive gain), temperament (negative loss), sociability (friend cap + bonus)
- Partner cap: default 1, poly (2) requires sociability 15+ AND empathy 14+; friend cap scales with sociability
- Despawned strong relationships (|value| >= 20) persist as memories; weak ones fade and get cleaned up
- SocialSystem emits lastOutcome on SocialState; relationshipSystem consumes and clears it
- NPC info panel has Status/Relations tabs; relationships tab shows tier-grouped sliders with colored markers
- All relationship tuning values in server/src/config/relationshipConfig.ts (designed for future admin UI)
