WHAT WAS DONE: - Created docs/tasks/arbiter-2x/ with README and implementation guide - Created docs/reference/gemini-consultations/ for AI partner records - Documented complete Arbiter 2.x architecture and implementation plan FILES ADDED: - docs/tasks/arbiter-2x/README.md (overview, phases, gotchas) - docs/tasks/arbiter-2x/IMPLEMENTATION-GUIDE.md (complete technical spec) - docs/reference/gemini-consultations/2026-03-31-arbiter-whitelist-architecture.md - docs/reference/gemini-consultations/2026-03-31-arbiter-implementation-details.md GEMINI CONSULTATIONS: Preserved complete Gemini AI architectural consultation from March 31, 2026. Includes: - Initial architecture consultation (unified app vs microservices) - Database schema design (PostgreSQL with indexes) - Minecraft account linking flow (Discord /link command) - Pterodactyl API integration (File Management API) - Complete code examples (Mojang validation, file write, cron sync) IMPLEMENTATION GUIDE INCLUDES: - 5-phase implementation plan with checklists - PostgreSQL schema with indexes for 500-user scale - Production-ready code snippets (pg pool, Mojang API, Panel API) - Critical gotchas (Content-Type, UUID dashes, HTTP 412) - Hourly cron reconciliation logic - Error handling and rate limiting strategies WHY: Task #90 is Tier 1 soft launch blocker. This documentation provides complete blueprint for implementing subscription-driven whitelist system. All architectural decisions validated by Gemini AI. NEXT STEPS: - Phase 1: PostgreSQL database setup - Phase 2: Core functions (Mojang, Panel API) - Phase 3: Discord /link command - Phase 4: Sync system (event-driven + cron) - Phase 5: Admin panel and testing Signed-off-by: The Golden Chronicler <claude@firefrostgaming.com>
