proto/noitu/v1/game.proto is the single source of truth for every WebSocket
message. buf generates Go types into server/gen and JavaScript types into
web/src/lib/proto; both trees are committed so building needs no codegen
toolchain.
The Go suite emits binary fixtures into proto/testdata and the JavaScript suite
decodes the same bytes, so the two generated clients are checked against one
artifact rather than against each other's assumptions. CI lints the schema,
rejects breaking changes against main, and fails when the committed generated
trees drift from the schema.
game.NumRejectReasons and game.NumEndReasons let the mapping tests prove every
engine reason has a wire value without guessing where the enum ends.
Reduce the 179 MB minhqnd/dictionary SQLite release to a ~3 MB game
wordlist: 48,216 Vietnamese words of two or more syllables, indexed by
first and last syllable with an out-degree table for dead-end detection.
Source schema is auto-detected rather than hardcoded, since it is someone
else's release artifact; explicit flags override it and are validated
against the real tables, because SQLite silently reads an unknown
double-quoted column as a string literal.
Accept a word only if every syllable fits Vietnamese phonotactics. An
alphabet check is not enough: "credit card" and "come out" use only
letters Vietnamese has, and the multilingual source tags them as
Vietnamese. Onset matching backtracks so the gi digraph does not swallow
the nucleus of common words like "gi", "gin" and "gi" (rust).
Record accepted spelling variants in an alias table rather than solving
tone placement at runtime. Tone shifting applies only to open oa/oe/uy
syllables, since "hoan" and "hoai" have a single correct spelling, and
"qu" is a consonant onset. The i/y alternation uses an onset allowlist
plus explicit pairs, because it is lexical rather than productive.
Variants are generated as a cross product over syllables so a word with
two variable syllables still offers the fully modern spelling.
Build to a temporary file and rename only after commit, so a failed run
cannot leave an empty database where a good one was, then re-open the
result and verify its invariants on disk.
