Summary

P0 timed-game lifecycle increment (ADR-0148): durable player readiness, first-move clock start, and source-specific pregame no-show. Not included: autonomous in-play flag expiry and ratings.

Verified on main at deba3a8: every game's clock was anchored at GameCreated, nothing recorded that a player had arrived (room presence is per-node and transient), and nothing ended a game nobody played.

Source classification (from current creation paths)

Path Source Lifecycle
Seek acceptance (POST /v1/seeks/:id/accept) seek + noShowAfterMs (default 60 s) readiness + first-move clock + no-show
DurableGameLauncher (tournaments) tournament + noShowAfterMs (default 5 min) readiness + first-move clock + no-show
POST /v1/games/bot none unchanged: the engine never joins, so readiness would lock the game
GameAuthority.createGame (e2e harness / tests only) none unchanged
Every stored game none replays and continues exactly as before

Design

  • Readiness is a PlayerReady event. After an authenticated seated join, the gateway routes a ready command to the game's owner, where it is serialized with moves and appended with expectedSeq. It is idempotent. Spectators and other users' tokens never route it, and the wire decoder rejects ready/expireNoShow. A losing append is re-routed against the reloaded log (up to 3 attempts).
  • Clock: a sourced game has no anchor until its first move. That move is charged nothing and anchors the opponent's clock at its server timestamp. Before both seats are ready, the first move is refused with not_ready: the domain enforces it and the authority reports the code. Replay uses the stored moveTimeMs.
  • Durable deadline, owner-enforced: each sourced game records noShowAfterMs on GameCreated, taken from NO_SHOW_SEEK_MS / NO_SHOW_TOURNAMENT_MS (validated positive integers). The owner enforces that deadline on every command. A move, a join or any player command that arrives after it records the no-show instead, the same way a move after a flag fall records the timeout. Readiness recorded after the deadline does not count. expireNoShow carries no deadline of its own; the owner uses the game's.
  • Outcomes:
    • seek: '*' / no_show, whoever was ready;
    • tournament, one player ready before the deadline: that player wins;
    • tournament, neither ready: winnerless double forfeit;
    • tournament, both ready in time: no ending.
  • Worker: NoShowExpiryWorker runs on every gateway with DATABASE_URL. It reads due entries from pregame_deadlines, re-decides each game from the event log, and routes expireNoShow to the owner as NO_SHOW_ACTOR. It dismisses games that will never expire and pauses on a page where nothing progressed. When nobody on that server is watching the game, it releases a lease it claimed only for the expiry and evicts a copy it loaded only for it. The owner's command lock plus the log's sequence check guarantee exactly one outcome.
  • Tournaments: the reporter maps a winnerless no_show ending to the existing double_forfeit, so it never reaches the aborted-game relaunch. The tournament domain needed no change.
  • Queue: pregame_deadlines is maintained by a game_events insert trigger in the same transaction as each append. A creation carrying a deadline enters it; the first move or any ending removes it. So it cannot lag the event log or miss a game written by an older release. A malformed deadline is skipped rather than rejecting the append.
  • Projection (ADR-0147): no new column. PlayerReady advances last_seq but not the ply count. A no-show ending projects result, termination and ended_at, which also makes the seek receipt guard truthful.
  • Migration: 0042 adds the no_show termination, the pregame_deadlines table with its (due_at, game_id) index, and the trigger.
  • Protocol/UI: adds StateView.ready (null when not applicable), a ready broadcast (replayed on resume), and the not_ready reject code. The web client reads a missing or malformed ready as none, keeps the board closed while a seat is not ready, and shows waiting and no-show text. When a snapshot from an older gateway has no ready field, the client keeps what it already knew. No visual redesign.
  • CI: the gateway-service job gains a pgvector Postgres service, because the routed-replica suite needs Redis and Postgres together. ci-local.mjs was updated to match.

Test plan

Final head 00143a8, local runs:

  • Hermetic npm test: all 19 workspaces, 3527/3527, zero skips. One earlier run hit an intermittent file-level failure in login-step-up.test.js, which this PR does not touch; it then passed 5/5 on its own and in the full rerun.
  • Real Postgres (pgvector PG16): persistence 137, api 63, scripts 1, zero skips
  • Gateway service on real Redis + real Postgres: 66/66 (9 routed-replica stack tests), zero skips
  • Build, lint, gateway build and lint, every check:* guard, test:scripts
  • 15 deliberate-defect probes, each caught; every mutation restored with a hash check, and the affected files then re-run cleanly
  • CI green on the final head
  • Qodo and Greptile on the final head

Deliberate-defect probes (compiled test builds)

Each defect was introduced alone, and each made the listed tests fail:

Defect Caught by
Readiness not idempotent domain test; gateway test
Spectator can mark ready gateway readiness test
Clock anchored at creation again domain tests
First move allowed with one seat ready domain test
Deadline check removed domain tests
Both-ready tournament game expires domain tests
Late readiness counts domain test (the authority's supersede rule also blocks it)
Late first move admitted domain and authority tests
NO_SHOW_ACTOR check removed wire/actor test
Event-store expectedSeq check removed real-PG stale-writer test
No-show treated as relaunch 3 API tests
Queue entries never dismissed worker test
Copy never evicted worker test
Claim never released worker test; seek stack test
Expiry bypasses owner routing owner-cache stack test

Limits

  • A game nobody touches ends within about one scan interval of its deadline; a game someone touches ends on that command.
  • The deadline is compared against the owner's clock. If the worker's clock runs ahead, the owner refuses the early expiry and the next pass succeeds.
  • Replicas still on the previous release cannot fold PlayerReady. Run migration 0042 first, then replace every gateway in one rollout. The queue stays correct regardless of which release wrote the events.
  • A player who is present can still abort before the second move. For a tournament game this still triggers the existing relaunch.
  • Bot and direct games keep a clock that starts at creation.

DO NOT MERGE without owner review.

…cific no-show (P0)

Seek and tournament games now record their source on GameCreated. For those
games only:

- a seated player's authenticated join is committed as a durable PlayerReady
  event by the game's owner (idempotent; spectators and other users' tokens
  never mark readiness; clients cannot send it);
- the first move is refused (not_ready) until both seats are ready, consumes
  no chess time, and anchors the opponent's clock at its server timestamp;
- a server-side NoShowExpiryWorker on every gateway with DATABASE_URL ends a
  game with no first move after its deadline (seek 60 s: aborted/no result;
  tournament 5 min: forfeit win for the one ready player, double forfeit when
  neither is ready, no ending when both are), routed to the owner and guarded
  by the event log's sequence check;
- the tournament reporter records a winnerless no-show as double_forfeit, so
  it never reaches the aborted-game relaunch.

Bot and direct games and all stored games keep the original lifecycle.
Migrations 0042-0044 add the no_show termination, the projected games.source
column (validated online) and a partial pending index built concurrently.
The web client shows readiness and no-show states. The gateway-service CI
job gains a PostgreSQL service for the routed-replica suite. ADR-0148.

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 9458c

This change adds readiness tracking and no-show handling for seek and tournament games, and bot and direct games keep their existing behavior. The review found no concrete defect that would block merging. The remaining suggestions are optional defensive guards.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 9458c

Player-facing commands appear restricted, but the new server-only expiry can permanently end a game. Its deadline is supplied by the caller, and the effect of inconsistent gateway configuration or access to the internal command queue remains a material risk.

Retained concerns

  • Medium · security · inferred: The new terminal command trusts a fixed internal actor string and a caller-supplied deadline. If an internal queue writer can forge the actor, or gateway replicas use inconsistent deadlines, a sourced game can be ended before its intended source-specific deadline; a tournament ending can propagate into its recorded result. Neither queue exposure nor configuration drift is established as occurring in production.
Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred — A forged privileged internal command would affect an individually addressed, sourced, unstarted game; repeated queue access could address multiple such games. Tournament no-show endings also reach result reporting. External queue access has not been established.

Security Findings and Attack Paths

  • inferred — An actor able to write a forwarded owner command could supply the fixed no-show identity and a short afterMs, bypassing the worker's source-specific duration when requesting an eligible game's terminal event. This is conditional on internal queue access, not an established player-facing attack path.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed — The external decoder rejects privileged lifecycle commands; owner authority distinguishes seated player commands from the no-show actor. The forwarded queue consumer passes its parsed userId and command to that authority without an additional origin check in the inspected path.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

  • observed — Expiry is rechecked against durable state, serialized at the authority, and appended before publication. On append failure the authority refreshes stale state; failed worker attempts can be retried on a later pass.

Hardening Proposals

  • proposed — Bind privileged expiry to authenticated worker provenance and have the owner enforce the source-specific deadline rather than trusting a routed duration; verify queue isolation and consistent deadlines across replicas before rollout.

High-Level Assessment

The following are alternative approaches to this PR:

1. Use transient presence as readiness
  • ➕ Avoids adding a persisted event and replay handling.
  • ➕ Reduces event-log writes for player joins.
  • ➖ Loses readiness on disconnects, restarts, or replica movement.
  • ➖ Cannot safely determine tournament forfeits across gateway nodes.
  • ➖ Introduces race conditions between presence and owner commands.
2. Use per-game expiry timers
  • ➕ Can trigger close to each deadline without projection polling.
  • ➕ Avoids recurring candidate queries.
  • ➖ Requires durable timer recovery and distributed ownership coordination.
  • ➖ Creates additional state outside the existing event-log concurrency model.
  • ➖ Risks duplicate or lost expiries during restarts and ownership changes.
3. Append expiries directly from the worker
  • ➕ Removes one routed command hop.
  • ➕ Could simplify the worker’s immediate write path.
  • ➖ Leaves the owning authority’s cached game stale.
  • ➖ Bypasses the owner command lock and its consistent broadcast path.
  • ➖ Requires separate cache invalidation and race handling.

Recommendation: Keep the PR’s event-driven, owner-routed approach. Durable PlayerReady events provide restart-safe facts, the projection supplies an efficient candidate set, and routing expiry through the owner reuses established locking, sequence checks, and broadcasts. The alternatives reduce individual steps but introduce split sources of truth or additional distributed coordination.

Action required

1. Active game ownership can be dropped ✗ Dismissed 🐞 Bug ☼ Reliability
Description
routedNoShowExpiry() records claimedForExpiry before loading and routing the expiry, then
releases any lease held at completion when no local room exists. A concurrent regular command can
acquire that lease in the intervening interval, causing the expiry cleanup to stop its command
consumer and discard ownership that was not acquired solely for expiry.
Code

services/gateway/src/no-show-expiry.ts[R232-235]

+      await router.route(gameId, NO_SHOW_ACTOR, { kind: 'expireNoShow', afterMs });
+    } finally {
+      if (claimedForExpiry && ownership.holdsValidLease(gameId) && !hasLocalSessions(gameId)) {
+        await ownership.release(gameId);
Relevance

●●● Strong

Recent gateway precedent accepts fixes for races between asynchronous ownership attempts and
cleanup.

PR-#65

ⓘ Recommendations generated based on similar findings in past PRs

Evidence
The expiry path snapshots the lease state before asynchronous loading/routing, whereas the normal
router may independently claim the same game. release() removes local ownership and invokes the
release hook that stops the command consumer, so this is operationally significant rather than
harmless cleanup.

Agent prompt
The issue below was found during a code review. Follow the provided context and guidance below and implement a solution

## Issue description
The no-show cleanup decides whether it owns the lease before asynchronous work that can race with another local command acquiring ownership. Its finally block can therefore release a lease now needed by normal command processing.

## Fix Focus Areas
- services/gateway/src/no-show-expiry.ts[226-237]
- services/gateway/src/command-forwarder.ts[302-326]
- services/gateway/src/ownership.ts[277-291]

## Recommended Fix
Make claiming for expiry an explicit, attributable operation and release only the lease claim acquired by that operation. Re-check ownership/claim generation after routing, or have the ownership layer return a claim token that cleanup can release only if it still owns that exact claim.

2. No-show games remain on gateway nodes ✗ Dismissed 🐞 Bug ➹ Performance
Description
routedNoShowExpiry calls authority.ensureLoaded() for every due candidate on each scanning
replica, but its cleanup only releases an ownership lease and never removes the resulting
GameRecord from the authority cache. Because the worker scans unwatched games and GameAuthority
retains records until evict() is called, each no-show that a replica processes permanently adds
its event and broadcast history to that gateway process.
Code

Relevance

●●● Strong

Recent gateway precedents accept lifecycle cleanup preventing stale registrations, replay load, and
retained resources.

PR-#65

ⓘ Recommendations generated based on similar findings in past PRs

Evidence
The new expiry wrapper explicitly hydrates the game before routing and its finally block only
releases ownership. ensureLoaded() stores the rebuilt aggregate in the authority's unbounded
games map, while evict() is the only API shown that removes it; the worker processes projection
candidates even when nobody has joined their rooms.

Agent prompt
The issue below was found during a code review. Follow the provided context and guidance below and implement a solution

## Issue description
The no-show worker hydrates every due game into `GameAuthority` before routing expiry, including games with no local sessions, but it never evicts those records. This makes gateway memory grow with historical no-show games rather than active games.

- packages/realtime-gateway/src/authority.ts[205-217]
- packages/realtime-gateway/src/authority.ts[257-263]

## Recommended Fix
Track whether the expiry path loaded a game solely for worker processing, then evict that authority record after routing when there are no local sessions and the node does not need to retain ownership. Coordinate eviction with lease release so an existing local owner is never left holding a valid lease for an absent aggregate, and add coverage for worker-claimed, remote-owner, single-node, and locally watched cases.

3. Due games can be skipped forever ✗ Dismissed 🐞 Bug ☼ Reliability
Description
NoShowExpiryWorker.runPass() retains a keyset cursor after every full page even though the query’s
source-specific deadlines allow newly due tournament rows to sort before a cursor advanced through
newer seek rows. If pages remain full, the strict (started_at, id) > cursor predicate excludes
those rows on every subsequent pass, so their no-show expiry is delayed indefinitely.
Code

services/gateway/src/no-show-expiry.ts[R128-130]

+    const more = page.length === this.pageSize;
+    const last = page.at(-1);
+    this.cursor = more && last ? { startedAt: last.startedAt, gameId: last.gameId } : null;
Relevance

●● Moderate

No close rejection precedent; cursor starvation is a subtle reliability concern requiring semantic
review.

PR-#65

ⓘ Recommendations generated based on similar findings in past PRs

Evidence
The worker supplies a changing current-time deadline and its previous cursor to the query, but only
rows strictly after that cursor are eligible. Because the seek and tournament cutoffs differ by four
minutes, new tournament candidates can be chronologically older than seek candidates that previously
advanced the cursor.

Agent prompt
The issue below was found during a code review. Follow the provided context and guidance below and implement a solution

## Issue description
The rotating keyset cursor can pass a row before it becomes due under its source-specific deadline. Under a continuously full backlog, that row remains before the cursor and is never selected again.

## Fix Focus Areas
- services/gateway/src/no-show-expiry.ts[120-147]
- packages/persistence/src/pg/no-show-candidates.ts[41-53]

## Recommended Fix
Do not retain one cursor across changing due-time windows. Complete a bounded oldest-first sweep and reset to the beginning before the next pass, or use a cursor/order that guarantees candidates becoming newly due cannot sort behind an existing cursor; retain a bounded page loop to avoid unbounded work per tick.

4. No-show checks vanish after a rollout ✓ Resolved 🐞 Bug ☼ Reliability
Description
The new projector populates games.source only while processing an event stream, so an old
projector that advances the projection checkpoint after a newly sourced GameCreated leaves the row
with source = NULL. With no subsequent event from an absent player, the upgraded projector never
revisits that stream and the candidate query permanently excludes the game.
Code

packages/persistence/src/pg/games-projector.ts[360]

+       started_at = EXCLUDED.started_at, ended_at = EXCLUDED.ended_at, source = EXCLUDED.source
Relevance

●● Moderate

Mixed projection precedents; checkpoint concerns were recently rejected, but this
migration-compatibility gap is materially different.

PR-#71

ⓘ Recommendations generated based on similar findings in past PRs

Evidence
source is written only by the changed projection upsert, while no-show discovery reads the
projection rather than replaying all streams and explicitly filters out null sources. A no-show game
has no move or readiness event by definition, so no later projection update is guaranteed to repair
an old-version projection.

The issue below was found during a code review. Follow the provided context and guidance below and implement a solution

## Issue description
An old projector can process new sourced games during a rolling deployment without persisting their source. Since no-show candidates require the projected source and a no-show game may have no later event, those games are never selected after upgrade.

Make deployment ordering prevent pre-feature projectors from consuming sourced game events, or add a durable backfill/reprojection step that restores `games.source` from every GameCreated event after upgrading the projector. Document and enforce that migration/rollout sequence before enabling sourced creation.

5. Some sourced games never expire ✗ Dismissed 🐞 Bug ≡ Correctness ⭐ New
Description
pregame_deadlines_track validates exact JSONB numeric fractions, while pregameOf receives
driver-decoded JavaScript numbers and accepts sufficiently small fractions after they round to safe
integers. A sourced event written with a value such as at: 1700000000000.0000000000001 therefore
replays normally but is omitted from the deadline queue, so an untouched game never reaches worker
expiry.

Real replay-versus-queue validation mismatch can strand sourced games; recent correctness findings
are generally accepted.

PR-#47

ⓘ Recommendations generated based on similar findings in past PRs

Evidence
The trigger assigns JSONB values to exact NUMERIC variables and requires equality with trunc,
whereas the aggregate applies Number.isSafeInteger to JavaScript values. PostgreSQL-loaded
payloads are passed directly through the event upcaster, so decimal precision discarded by
JavaScript can make replay and trigger admission disagree.

Agent prompt
The issue below was found during a code review. Follow the provided context and guidance below and implement a solution

## Issue description
The deadline trigger validates PostgreSQL's exact JSONB numeric representation, but game replay validates the value after PostgreSQL's driver has decoded it as a JavaScript number. High-precision decimals can therefore round to an accepted safe integer during replay while being rejected by the trigger, leaving the game outside the no-show queue.

- packages/persistence/test/pregame-no-show.integration.test.ts[120-162]

## Recommended Fix
Normalize guarded numeric values to the same finite double-precision representation seen by JavaScript before applying safe-integer and deadline checks, while retaining preliminary numeric bounds that prevent overflow during conversion. Add an integration case containing a sub-precision fractional suffix and verify that queue inclusion agrees with `Game.fromEvents`.

6. Extreme creation dates reject game saves ✗ Dismissed 🐞 Bug ☼ Reliability
Description
pregameOf accepts every finite at, but the queue trigger converts at + noShowAfterMs to a
PostgreSQL timestamp whose representable range is much narrower than finite JavaScript numbers. A
sourced creation with an extreme finite timestamp therefore passes the aggregate but makes
PostgresEventStore.append roll back when the trigger executes.

Evidence
The aggregate only checks finiteness, while the migration passes the computed deadline to
to_timestamp and the event store executes that trigger inside its append transaction. PostgreSQL
documents a bounded timestamp-with-time-zone range ending at 294276 AD, so JavaScript values such as
Number.MAX_VALUE pass this new check but cannot be inserted into the queue.

7. Untouched malformed games never expire ✗ Dismissed 🐞 Bug ☼ Reliability
Description
pregame_deadlines_track requires GameCreated.at to be a JSON number, while Game.reduce stores
and uses that value without validating its runtime type. A sourced creation with at: null
therefore still folds but receives no queue row, so the expiry worker never examines the game unless
another command touches it.

this mismatch uncovered.

Validate `GameCreated.at` in the aggregate using the same accepted numeric range required by persistence, and mirror that exact validation in the trigger before calling `to_timestamp`. Extend the malformed-event integration cases with null, nonnumeric, fractional, and out-of-range timestamps, asserting that aggregate acceptance and queue admission remain aligned and that malformed inserts do not make the trigger raise.

8. Malformed games poison expiry scans ✓ Resolved 🐞 Bug ☼ Reliability
Description

9. Players see an unlocked waiting board ✓ Resolved 🐞 Bug ≡ Correctness
Description
GameSync.applySnapshot() overwrites accumulated readiness with null whenever a snapshot from an

394-404: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🔵 Trivial | 💤 Low value

Reject readiness from an unknown seat in markReady.

markReady does not check that color is 'w' or 'b'. For any other value, s.ready[color] is undefined. The method then emits PlayerReady with an invalid by. The reducer throws on that event, so Game.applyAll throws an untyped error. If the event reaches the store first, every later replay of the game fails. The current authority derives color from the seat match, so this path cannot happen today. The domain replay check still rejects this value, but the command path does not. Add the same check at the command boundary.

🛡️ Proposed guard
   markReady(color: Color, at: number): { game: Game; events: GameEvent[] } {
+    if (color !== 'w' && color !== 'b') throw new GameError(`unknown seat ${JSON.stringify(color)}`);

Wrap markReady in guard to keep the AuthorityError contract.

Every other domain command runs inside this.guard(...). markReady does not. The current markReady does not throw. A later domain change could add a throw. The raw GameError would then escape apply without an AuthorityError code. commitReadiness in gateway.ts would treat that error as retryable.

…games by trigger

Review round on PR #72 (Greptile, Qodo, CodeRabbit):

- GameCreated records noShowAfterMs with its source, from NO_SHOW_SEEK_MS /
  NO_SHOW_TOURNAMENT_MS (validated). The owner enforces the game's own
  deadline: a move, join or any player command arriving after it records the
  no-show instead (like a move after a flag fall), and readiness after the
  deadline does not count. expireNoShow no longer carries a caller-supplied
  deadline.
- Due games come from pregame_deadlines, kept by a game_events insert trigger
  in the same transaction as every append (creation with a deadline enters;
  first move or ending leaves), so discovery cannot lag the log or miss games
  projected by an older replica. games.source and the projection-based index
  are removed; migration 0042 is rewritten and 0043/0044 dropped (unmerged).
- The worker dismisses games that will never expire, pauses on a page with no
  progress, and when nobody on the replica is watching releases a lease
  claimed only for the expiry (once the ending is visible) and evicts a copy
  loaded only for it; a join racing that eviction reloads.
- The web client keeps known readiness when a snapshot lacks the field.

Code review by qodo was updated up to the latest commit 00143a8

Qodo on 00143a8: the pregame_deadlines trigger queued any numeric deadline, so a zero, negative, fractional, oversized or source-less one would enter the queue and fail every worker pass on replay. The trigger now requires a known source and a positive safe-integer noShowAfterMs, mirroring Game, and skips anything else without rejecting the append. The integration test covers each malformed shape.

Code review by qodo was updated up to the latest commit 5201353

Qodo on 5201353: the queue trigger requires a numeric GameCreated.at, but the reducer accepted any value, so a sourced creation with at: null would fold yet never be queued and would expire only if touched. pregameOf now refuses a sourced creation without a finite numeric at, the same rule the trigger applies, so every game the log can replay as sourced is queued. Games without a source are unaffected.

…ntable range

Qodo on cb5b54b: the domain accepted any finite creation time, but the queue trigger converts at + noShowAfterMs to timestamptz, so an extreme value would make the trigger raise and roll back the append. A sourced creation now needs a non-negative safe-integer at and a deadline no later than ECMAScript's maximum Date (inside timestamptz's range); the domain refuses anything else and the trigger applies the same bound and skips it. Tests cover negative, fractional, oversized and bound-crossing values and the exact maximum deadline.

…es with replay

Qodo on c03bb5b: the trigger checked jsonb's exact decimal while replay checks the double JSON.parse produces, so a hand-written value such as 1700000000000.0000000000001 replayed as a valid sourced game yet was not queued. The trigger now converts to double precision (the same nearest-double rounding) after a magnitude guard that keeps the conversion from raising, then applies the integer and range checks. An integration test writes raw JSON literals and asserts queue inclusion equals whether Game.fromEvents accepts the parsed payload.

* feat: autonomous server-authoritative in-play flag expiry (P0)

Once a timed game's first move has started its clock, the side to move now
loses on time when that clock runs out, with nobody connected and nobody
claiming:

- Game.flagDeadline / clock.flagDeadline state the first instant hasFlagged
  holds; Game.timeoutDue(at) applies it only after a first move.
- The owner records the timeout for any player command it applies at or after
  the flag (a late move, resignation, draw acceptance, readiness), so the
  outcome depends on the authoritative time, not on arrival order.
- expireFlag is issued only by the reserved FLAG_ACTOR and refused unless due
  on the owner's clock and freshest copy; it records exactly what claimFlag
  records, including the insufficient-material draw.
- Migration 0043 adds flag_deadlines, kept by a game_events trigger in the same
  transaction as every append (each move replaces the deadline, an ending
  removes it), with an exact integer due_ms, and backfills running games.
- FlagExpiryWorker on every gateway with DATABASE_URL re-decides each due game
  from the log, corrects or dismisses rows the log disagrees with (guarded by
  the log head), and routes expireFlag to the owner. The PR #72 worker loop and
  routed expiry are shared through deadline-expiry.ts.

* docs: ADR-0149 autonomous flag expiry, DATABASE flag queue, M15 Increment 72

* test(persistence): pin the pre-0042 upgrade test to migration 0042

The PR #72 test asserted that upgrading a pre-0042 database applies exactly
one migration, which stopped holding once 0043 exists. It now upgrades to
exactly 0042, keeping its original claim.

* perf(persistence): compute each backfilled flag deadline once

CodeRabbit on 5448ab7: the 0043 backfill evaluated flag_deadline_ms twice per
game while CREATE TRIGGER's lock holds appends. It now computes it once in a
subquery and filters on the result.

* fix(gateway): count failed scans, keep stacks, and let go of late forwarded expiries

Qodo on 1bed08a: a failed candidate query was logged but not counted, and
logged errors kept only their message. Both handlers now count the failure and
log the stack.

CI on 1bed08a: when two replicas expire one game at once, the loser's
forwarded expiry reached the owner's consumer after the owner had evicted the
ended game, and the consumer's reload left an unwatched copy cached. The
consumer now evicts a copy it loaded only to answer a server expiry once the
game is over, before replying. Player commands and resident copies are
untouched. A deterministic real-Redis test forwards the late expiry directly.

* fix(gateway): never evict a forwarded expiry's copy that someone here is watching

Qodo on 9e3db89: the consumer decided the copy was expiry-only before loading
it, so a local join completing during the load or apply could lose its game.
The consumer now also requires that nobody on this node is in the game's room,
through the gateway's room check (wired in serve.ts; until wired, every game
counts as watched). The real-Redis test covers a watcher present when the late
expiry arrives.
