WHAT WAS DONE:
- Added Admin tier (1000) back to tier dropdown
- Added is_staff toggle checkbox in Actions column
- Created POST route /admin/players/:discord_id/staff
- Updated query to include is_staff from users table
- Both tier and staff status tracked separately
WHY:
- Trinity needs ability to assign Admin tier to team members
- Staff can also be subscribers - need to track both
- Example: Moderator who also pays for Elemental tier
- Separate tracking prevents conflating employment and subscription
HOW IT WORKS:
- Tier dropdown shows ALL tiers including Admin
- Staff checkbox toggles is_staff on users table
- Both changes create separate audit log entries
- Staff flag independent of subscription tier
DATABASE REQUIREMENT:
- Requires migration: ALTER TABLE users ADD COLUMN is_staff BOOLEAN DEFAULT FALSE;
- Must be run before deploying this code
FEATURES:
- Admin tier assignable via dropdown
- Staff toggle with visual checkbox
- Both tracked in audit log separately
- Tier + Staff shown side-by-side in Actions column
IMPACT:
- Can now hire staff and track their employment
- Staff can also be subscribers without conflict
- Clear separation of concerns
- Ready for team expansion
FILES MODIFIED:
- services/arbiter-3.0/src/views/admin/players/_table_body.ejs
- services/arbiter-3.0/src/routes/admin/players.js
DEPLOYMENT STEPS:
1. Run database migration (ADD is_staff column)
2. Deploy code files
3. Restart arbiter-3 service

WHAT WAS DONE:
- Added tier change dropdown in Players Actions column
- Created POST route /admin/players/:discord_id/tier
- Implemented database tier update with MRR recalculation
- Added audit log entry for tier changes
- htmx reload of table after tier change
WHY:
- Trinity needs ability to manually adjust subscriber tiers
- Customer service: upgrades, downgrades, support cases
- Accountability via audit logging
- Last missing feature in Players module
HOW IT WORKS:
- Dropdown shows all tiers (except Admin 1000)
- On change, htmx POSTs to tier change endpoint
- Route updates subscriptions table (tier_level + mrr_value)
- Audit log records who made the change
- After success, table reloads to show updated tier
FEATURES:
- Real-time tier changes without page refresh
- Automatic MRR recalculation
- Audit trail for compliance
- Skips Admin tier (reserved for Trinity)
- Shows current tier as selected in dropdown
IMPACT:
- Trinity can now manage all subscriber tiers manually
- Critical for customer support scenarios
- Completes Players module functionality
- Ready for soft launch customer service
TODO:
- Discord role sync integration (marked in code)
- This requires bot API endpoint to be built
FILES MODIFIED:
- services/arbiter-3.0/src/views/admin/players/_table_body.ejs
- services/arbiter-3.0/src/routes/admin/players.js
TESTED:
- Not yet deployed - needs testing on Command Center
