Mode: Territory Capture
Objective: Claim 35% of the grid before the infection erases your territory.
Developer intent: Reward bold territory loops with temporary protection and a bonus for enclosing enemies.

For method replacements:
- content must be the complete replacement method, including the def line.
- Replace the required methods and keep JSON valid.
- Do not invent helper methods or new imports unless the returned replacements define everything needed.
- Store new mechanic state in game.data.
- Directly update existing GameModel fields such as bullets, enemies, towers, or pickups when a mechanic needs new entities.
- Keep behavior deterministic from ticks, score, health, commands, or existing masks.
- Include tests that would verify the changed mechanic.

Required replacement methods: new, command, advance

Implementation notes:
    - Track shield_ticks, enclosed_bonus, and hazard_trails in game.data.
    - Grant shield while the player is actively closing a trail, then expire it quickly.
    - When a loop closes, count enemies inside or near the claimed area and award bonus score.
    - Let hazards cut active trails without erasing already claimed territory.

Suggested tests:
    - Test closing a loop claims territory and awards enclosure bonus.
    - Test shield prevents one trail hit while active.
    - Test hazards cut only active trail state.

Risk notes:
    - Loop detection should stay local to the current trail implementation.
    - Do not reintroduce runaway enemy territory growth.

Mode: Territory Duel
Objective: Paint the board faster than the rival infection can steal it back.

- Keep behavior deterministic from ticks, score, health, commands, or existing masks.
- Include tests that would verify the changed mechanic.

Required replacement methods: new, command, advance

Implementation notes:
    - Track phase_name, phase_ticks, freeze_ticks, and power_cell positions in game.data.
    - Alternate phases on deterministic tick intervals or fire command.
    - During invulnerable phase, block one damage event but reduce claim radius or scoring.
    - Power cells should pause rival spread for a bounded number of ticks.

Suggested tests:
    - Test phase transitions update game.data.
    - Test invulnerable phase blocks one damage event.
    - Test freeze cells stop spread temporarily and then expire.

Risk notes:
    - Keep phase text visible in messages/progress.
    - Do not make the player permanently invulnerable.

- Keep behavior deterministic from ticks, score, health, commands, or existing masks.
- Include tests that would verify the changed mechanic.

Required replacement methods: command, advance

Implementation notes:
    - Store drone_anchor and drone_anchor_mode in game.data.
    - Movement must not recenter drones unless the active mode says orbiting should follow.
    - Fire/space should rotate formation and update the anchor point intentionally.
    - advance() should read game.towers as authoritative unless the selected mode requires recalculation.
    - Update messages so the player knows whether drones are anchored or orbiting.

Suggested tests:
    - Test movement preserves towers in anchored mode.
    - Test fire updates towers and anchor data.
    - Test orbit mode, if added, follows the player only after explicit mode selection.

Risk notes:
    - Do not recreate the old every-tick recentering accidentally.
    - Avoid making drone damage cover the whole board.

Mode: Drone Swarm
Objective: Pilot the command unit and switch static drone formations to shred hostile clusters.
Developer intent: Add a short overclock after a formation switch where drones clear a larger radius but then cool down.
Extension id: overclock_pulse

For method replacements:
- content must be the complete replacement method, including the def line.
- Replace the required methods and keep JSON valid.
- Do not invent helper methods or new imports unless the returned replacements define everything needed.
- Store new mechanic state in game.data.
- Directly update existing GameModel fields such as bullets, enemies, towers, or pickups when a mechanic needs new entities.
- Keep behavior deterministic from ticks, score, health, commands, or existing masks.
- Include tests that would verify the changed mechanic.

Required replacement methods: command, advance

Implementation notes:
    - Track overclock_ticks and cooldown in game.data.
    - On fire/space, set overclock_ticks if cooldown is zero.
    - In advance(), use a larger disk_mask radius while overclock_ticks is active.
    - Decrement overclock/cooldown every tick and update messages.

Suggested tests:
    - Test fire starts overclock and cooldown data.
    - Test overclock increases the drone kill radius.
    - Test cooldown prevents immediate repeated overclock.

Risk notes:
    - Keep the base static-formation behavior intact.
    - Do not let overclock stack indefinitely.

Required replacement methods: new, command, advance

Implementation notes:
    - Track per-reactor meltdown counters and stabilized reactor cells in game.data.
    - Advance heat shapes deterministically from reactor state.
    - When one reactor is stabilized, reduce heat or cooldown counters around nearby reactors.
    - Show countdown pressure through message/progress text.

Suggested tests:
    - Test meltdown counters decrement and damage at zero.
    - Test stabilizing a reactor cools nearby heat.
    - Test progress still completes after target reactors.

Risk notes:
    - Avoid large per-cell history; store compact reactor tuples.
    - Keep hazard shapes simple disks or crosses.

[System] You are an expert Python game engineer. Return only JSON with complete Python method replacements. Build material game mechanics as deterministic local changes: store new state in game.data or existing GameModel masks, update player-visible messages/progress, prefer complete new()/command()/advance()/progress() method replacements, and avoid app UI, renderer, replay, dependency, or multi-file architecture work unless the prompt explicitly requests it.

Mode: Signal Heist
Objective: Steal data shards from the live grid while sentry cells close in.
Developer intent: Add shard alarms, stealth zones, and an extraction step after the last shard.
Extension id: alarm_stealth_exit
Variant index: 1

For method replacements:
- content must be the complete replacement method, including the def line.
- Replace the required methods and keep JSON valid.
- Do not invent helper methods or new imports unless the returned replacements define everything needed.
- Store new mechanic state in game.data.
- Directly update existing GameModel fields such as bullets, enemies, towers, or pickups when a mechanic needs new entities.
- Keep behavior deterministic from ticks, score, health, commands, or existing masks.
- Include tests that would verify the changed mechanic.

Required replacement methods: new, command, advance

Implementation notes:
    - Track alarmed_shards, stealth_zone_ttl, and exit_cell in game.data.
    - Collecting an alarm shard should spawn a small bounded sentry group.
    - Inside stealth zones, sentries should skip tracking or move less often.
    - After collecting shards, require reaching an exit cell instead of instant completion.

Suggested tests:
    - Test alarm shards spawn bounded sentries.
    - Test stealth zone reduces tracking while active.
    - Test completion requires the exit after target shards.

Risk notes:
    - Use existing masks for stealth/exit visibility.
    - Do not make exits spawn unreachable behind enemies.

Implementation notes:
    - Track scanner_battery, reset_timer, and moving_anchor offsets in game.data.
    - Fire should spend scanner battery to reveal a larger radius.
    - On reset_timer, darken a bounded portion of explored cells and move one anchor.
    - Award reveal bonuses for mapping large dark regions.

Suggested tests:
    - Test scanner battery decrements and reveal radius changes.
    - Test a reset darkens only bounded explored cells.
    - Test moving anchors remain collectable.

Risk notes:
    - Avoid full replay/fog renderer edits; use existing claimed/boss/enemy state.
    - Do not reset so often that progress feels random.

Battery scanner and shifting anchors


[System] You are an expert Python game engineer. Return only JSON with complete Python method replacements. Build material game mechanics as deterministic local changes: store new state in game.data or existing GameModel masks, update player-visible messages/progress, prefer complete new()/command()/advance()/progress() method replacements, and avoid app UI, renderer, replay, dependency, or multi-file architecture work unless the prompt explicitly requests it.

Mode: Pulse Surfer
Objective: Ride between sweeping pulse walls and harvest charge before the rhythm eats you.
Developer intent: Make pulse dodging more rhythmic with phase-based safe lanes and pickups that clear nearby pulses.
Extension id: rhythm_phase_lanes
Variant index: 1

Return JSON only with this schema:
{
  "summary": "short imperative summary",
  "rationale": "why the code change helps the game",
  "replacements": [
    {
      "path": "life_game/games/example.py",

    }
  ],
  "tests": ["uv run pytest tests/test_game.py"]
}

For method replacements:
- content must be the complete replacement method, including the def line.
- Replace the required methods and keep JSON valid.
- Do not invent helper methods or new imports unless the returned replacements define everything needed.
- Store new mechanic state in game.data.
- Directly update existing GameModel fields such as bullets, enemies, towers, or pickups when a mechanic needs new entities.
- Keep behavior deterministic from ticks, score, health, commands, or existing masks.
- Include tests that would verify the changed mechanic.

Required replacement methods: new, command, advance

Implementation notes:
    - Track rhythm_phase, safe_lane, and charge_pickup cells in game.data.
    - Advance phase on fixed tick intervals and update enemy pulse masks from the phase.
    - Collecting a charge pickup clears nearby pulses and increments charge.
    - Keep safe lane hints readable through message/progress text.

Suggested tests:
    - Test rhythm phase changes at fixed ticks.
    - Test pickups clear nearby pulses.
    - Test charge target completion still works.

Risk notes:
    - Do not depend on audio timing; use ticks.
    - Keep pulse speed bounded for keyboard play.

Required replacement methods: new, command, advance

Implementation notes:
    - Track desync_ticks, desync_cooldown, and trap_types in game.data.
    - Fire should start desync when cooldown is ready, moving the mirror axis or delaying echo placement.
    - Trap variants can score, stun, or explode in a small radius.
    - Collapse onto the mirror center must remain fatal.

Suggested tests:
    - Test desync changes echo position temporarily.
    - Test trap types produce distinct bounded effects.
    - Test center collapse remains fatal.

Risk notes:
    - Do not remove direct overlap damage.
    - Keep mirror math simple: horizontal, vertical, or one alternate axis.

Mirror desync and trap variants


[System] You are an expert Python game engineer. Return only JSON with complete Python method replacements. Build material game mechanics as deterministic local changes: store new state in game.data or existing GameModel masks, update player-visible messages/progress, prefer complete new()/command()/advance()/progress() method replacements, and avoid app UI, renderer, replay, dependency, or multi-file architecture work unless the prompt explicitly requests it.

[User]
Mode: Circuit Repair
Objective: Reconnect broken circuit nodes while corruption eats the board.
Developer intent: Require repaired nodes to connect into circuits while corruption can re-break exposed links.
Extension id: linked_circuit_streaks
Variant index: 1

Return JSON only with this schema:
{
  "summary": "short imperative summary",
  "rationale": "why the code change helps the game",
  "replacements": [
    {
      "path": "life_game/games/example.py",
      "class_name": "ExampleGame",
      "method_name": "advance",
      "content": "    def advance(self, model, game, rule):\n        ..."
    }
  ],
  "tests": ["uv run pytest tests/test_game.py"]
}

For method replacements:
- content must be the complete replacement method, including the def line.
- Replace the required methods and keep JSON valid.
- Do not invent helper methods or new imports unless the returned replacements define everything needed.
- Store new mechanic state in game.data.
- Directly update existing GameModel fields such as bullets, enemies, towers, or pickups when a mechanic needs new entities.
- Keep behavior deterministic from ticks, score, health, commands, or existing masks.
- Include tests that would verify the changed mechanic.

Required replacement methods: new, command, advance

Implementation notes:
    - Track repaired_links, streak_count, and protected_node cells in game.data.
    - Only count a node when it connects to an existing repaired component or anchor.
    - Let corruption re-break unprotected repaired links at a bounded probability.
    - Award a small streak bonus for consecutive repairs without damage.

Suggested tests:
    - Test disconnected repairs do not count until linked.
    - Test corruption can re-break an unprotected link.
    - Test streak bonus increments and resets predictably.

Risk notes:
    - Avoid general graph libraries; use local neighbor checks.
    - Keep re-break chance low enough to avoid endless games.
