Upgrade the existing game "Tempo Squeek — Sync or Sleep" (live at https://tempo-squeek-sync-or-sleep.imd.site/, source delivered by IMD job 595caf3a-200f-4674-811b-d49bfc99d80c). Keep the game itself exactly as it is — same rhythm-runner gameplay, same live polling of https://api.squeekchain.com/v1/status every 5 seconds, RPM = measurement.rpmMilli / 1000 driving tempo, RUN/NAP phases, round-seeded tracks (seed = ((round * 7919 + 4242) % 90000) + 10000), 90-second runs, SIM fallback with manual LIVE/SIM toggle, same dark/amber presentation and responsive layout. This job adds the on-chain layer described below and nothing else. Where this spec and the current build differ outside the on-chain layer, the current build wins.

New feature 1 — wallet sign-in and a public leaderboard:

  • Add a "Connect wallet" button (standard EVM browser wallets, e.g. MetaMask) for Ethereum Sepolia.
  • After connecting, the player signs ONE free message (personal_sign, no transaction, no gas) that binds their runs to that wallet address. Signing is optional: the game stays fully playable with no wallet connected, exactly as today.
  • Add a public leaderboard page/section showing, for each signed-in wallet: shortened address, best score, the SqueekCore round of that best run, and when it was set. A run is only eligible for the leaderboard after the wallet has signed in; the score shown is the wallet's best signed run.
  • The leaderboard must be real shared state (every visitor sees the same board, persisted server-side or equivalent) — not localStorage. Keep localStorage only as the no-wallet personal best, as today.
  • Show the connected wallet's own best and rank on the game HUD after sign-in.

New feature 2 — optional on-chain checkpoint of a finished run:

  • After a run ends, a signed-in player may press a "Checkpoint this run on-chain" button that calls SqueekMining.checkpoint() on Ethereum Sepolia for the settled SqueekCore round the run was played in — the same public checkpoint the approved Squeekchain rhythm game uses to etch a player's name on the round record.
  • This is a real transaction initiated and confirmed by the player's own wallet (Sepolia testnet; the site never holds keys and never pays gas for anyone). It is always optional and never required to play, to finish a run, or to appear on the leaderboard.
  • Handle the unhappy paths gracefully in plain English: wallet not connected, wrong network (offer the Sepolia switch), round not settled yet, transaction rejected or reverted. Show the transaction hash with a block-explorer link after a successful checkpoint.

Rules: no tokens, no wagering, nothing to buy, no paid mainnet anything — Sepolia testnet only. The free message signature is not a transaction and must be described to the player as free and gasless. Never tell the player to make the hamster run, and never claim a badge, team approval or whitelist spot in the game UI. English only.

Deliverables:

  • The upgraded game deployed at the same imd.site address, replacing the current build.
  • Updated source in the project's GitHub repository. README.md keeps the sentence "Tempo Squeek is a community project for the Squeekchain Buildooooor badge." and gains a short section explaining the on-chain layer: free sign-in, the public leaderboard, and the optional SqueekMining.checkpoint() transaction on Sepolia.

Acceptance criteria:

  • With no wallet: the game plays end-to-end exactly as before (live API up, and SIM fallback when the API is blocked).
  • After connect + free sign-in: a finished run appears on the public leaderboard under that wallet, and a second visitor (different browser, no wallet) can see it.
  • The checkpoint button produces a real Sepolia transaction calling SqueekMining.checkpoint() for a settled round, and the UI shows its hash; rejecting the transaction in the wallet leaves the game fully usable.
  • Wrong-network and not-settled cases show a clear message and never a crashed or stuck screen.

This is a follow-up job on an existing IMD project. The customer pays from the same wallet that paid the project's first job, which is the wallet verified on their Squeekchain Genesis profile.

    #1639Claude19 files changed

    I've added the on-chain layer to Tempo Squeek, the build and all checks pass, and the gameplay itself is unchanged. The commit did not go through, because this machine has no git identity set. All deliverables are staged; I didn't change git config.

    What a player sees

    • No wallet: the game plays exactly as before. The original 10 browser checks all pass, including the SIM fallback when the API is blocked, and the device-only best score still lives in localStorage.
    • Connect wallet: a button in the header lists the browser wallets it detects (MetaMask, Rabby, Brave and so on). On a phone without a wallet it offers to reopen the page inside MetaMask, Coinbase Wallet or Phantom.
    • Free sign-in: the player signs one message. The screen says it is free, not a transaction and costs no gas. After that, every finished live run goes on the public leaderboard, and the game screen shows the wallet's best score and rank.
    • Public leaderboard: a section below the game shows the short address, best score, SqueekCore round and when it was set. Each visitor's browser checks the wallet signature on every entry, so nobody can post a score under someone else's wallet.
    • Checkpoint this run on-chain: after a live run, a signed-in player can send SqueekMining.checkpoint() on Sepolia (0x2dccb11fcc2defdd188555e45acb52231e82e218) from their own wallet. Before asking the wallet, the site checks the run's round has settled and simulates the call. Each failure case gets one plain sentence: no wallet, wrong network (with a "Switch to Ethereum Sepolia" button), round not settled, paused, rejected, reverted. A sent transaction shows its hash with a Sepolia Etherscan link, and the game stays usable throughout.

    Decisions I made (also recorded in the README)

    1. Where the shared leaderboard lives. This is why the last attempt was rejected: the brief needs shared state but gives no backend. I used public Nostr relays, which are open servers that store signed messages and need no account or server of ours. Every visitor reads the same relays. From this machine, four of the seven listed relays stored a test entry and returned it on a fresh connection. If the project runs its own relay later, add its URL in src/chain/config.ts and rebuild.
    2. "The round the run was played in." checkpoint() takes no arguments; it always processes the next settled rounds. So the button only goes ahead once the run's round has settled, and the message says which rounds the call will process.
    3. No wallet libraries. package.json couldn't change in this job, so the wallet calls and cryptography are small modules I wrote in src/chain/. They match published test vectors and Foundry's cast output. One gap: Coinbase Smart Wallet (passkey wallets) needs Coinbase's library, so it isn't offered.
    4. Contract addresses come from the public Squeekchain API and were confirmed with reads on Sepolia. Nothing needs setting after launch.

    Checks

    • Typecheck and production build pass; dist/ is 210,736 bytes and uses relative asset paths.
    • Unit tests: 24/24.
    • Original browser suite: 10/10.
    • New on-chain browser test: 6/6. It covers connect and sign-in, a published run with best and rank on the game screen, wrong network then switch, round not settled, rejecting in the wallet with the game still usable, the checkpoint transaction (correct contract and call, hash and link shown), a second visitor with no wallet seeing the same board, and a forged score being ignored.
    • Design probe: 16/16. The 390px screenshot shows the game and its Start button on the first screen.
    • Fixed along the way: a crash on page load when a wallet is installed, and text overflowing at 200% text size.

    Not tested: the wallet, the relays and the Sepolia answers in the browser tests were mocks, and this machine has no wallet or test ETH. So no real Meta

  3. Design criticAgent #237found 1 high, 1 medium, 1 low

    I found one blocking defect: the "Checkpoint this run on-chain" button can never send a transaction. I wrote three findings to .imd-findings.json. The taste probe didn't run, because the sandbox stops Chromium from opening its socket. The browser tool also refuses file: URLs, so I couldn't take screenshots either. I judged the layout from the source.

    Requirements

    • Game unchanged (live polling every 5 s, rpmMilli/1000, RUN/NAP, seed formula, 90 s, SIM and the LIVE/SIM toggle, dark/amber look): met. This job's diff only adds src/chain/* and src/onchain.ts, a few lines in src/main.ts and some CSS. The game engine files weren't touched.
    • "Connect wallet" button for Sepolia, EIP-6963 wallets: met. #wallet-button in index.html:35, sheet built in src/onchain.ts:87.
    • One free personal_sign, described as free and gasless: met. buildSignInMessage and the button text "Sign in (free, no gas)".
    • Signing is optional; the game works with no wallet: met.
    • Leaderboard shows short address, best score, round and when it was set: met. #board-table.
    • Only runs after sign-in count; the score shown is the wallet's best: met for now, but at risk (medium finding, see below).
    • Real shared state, not localStorage: met. Signed Nostr events on public relays, with a stated reason in the README. localStorage only keeps the no-wallet best.
    • Wallet's own best and rank on the HUD: met. #wallet-hud, renderHud().
    • "Checkpoint this run on-chain" calls SqueekMining.checkpoint() on Sepolia: missing. Both addresses match api.squeekchain.com/v1/core and /v1/economy/state, and the call data is 0xc2c4c5c1. But the pre-check always fails, so the wallet is never asked.
    • Player's own wallet sends it; the site holds no keys: met. eth_sendTransaction from the player's address.
    • Plain-English unhappy paths: met. No wallet, not signed in, wrong network (with a switch button), not settled, rejected and reverted all have messages. The "not settled" message can't currently appear, because of the checkpoint bug.
    • Transaction hash with an Etherscan link: met in code (showTx), but never reached.
    • No tokens or wagering; Sepolia only; English; no hamster-run instructions; no badge claims in the UI: met.
    • README keeps the badge sentence and adds an on-chain section: met.
    • Deploy to the same address, update the repository, the "Canonical IMD job URL" line: after review.

    The idea: a moonlit rhythm runner where a real hamster wheel sets the beat. The amber signal ring carries it, and the wallet layer stays quietly underneath.

    Findings

    1. High, bug: the checkpoint can never be sent (src/chain/mining.ts:9).
      • Now: the readiness check calls SqueekCore.settledThroughRound() (0x83d0e1d7). That function isn't in the deployed contract. Publicnode and 1rpc both answer execution reverted, data 0x, so every press shows "Sepolia could not be reached…".
      • Change to: read state() (0xc19d93fb) instead. Its first value is 1190, which matches the API's settledThroughRound. Then update the mocked RPC in the test, which only passed because it answers the wrong selector.
    2. Medium, bug: a wallet's best score can drop off the board (src/chain/leaderboard.ts:161).
      • Now: every run is its own event, and the board reads only the newest 2,000 of them. Once enough newer runs pile up, an older best

    • highbug: the checkpoint button can never send a transaction because SqueekCore.settledThroughRound() does not exist on Sepoliasrc/chain/mining.ts:9

      Now: checkReadiness() reads SqueekCore 0xfd6c166d4b8e2962e65746a13e5a0797cd4de0c4 with selector 0x83d0e1d7 (settledThroughRound()). That function is not in the deployed implementation 0x6869d6102696243fd17013ab955d99cd0c522ad3, so every eth_call reverts with data 0x. The Promise.all at mining.ts:93 rejects, the catch at :99 returns 'Sepolia could not be reached to check the round...', and eth_sendTransaction at onchain.ts:379 is never reached for any player on any round.

      Change to: read the settled round from SqueekCore.state() (selector 0xc19d93fb), whose first word is settledThroughRound (it returns 0x4a6 = 1190, matching api.squeekchain.com/v1/core core.settledThroughRound): const SETTLED_SELECTOR = selector('state()'); keep settledThrough = words(settled)[0]. Update the mocked RPC in tests/onchain-browser.mjs so it answers the real selector and no longer answers 0x83d0e1d7.

      Why: acceptance criterion 'The checkpoint button produces a real Sepolia transaction calling SqueekMining.checkpoint() for a settled round, and the UI shows its hash'. The browser test passed only because it mocks the Sepolia RPC with a selector the live contract doesn't have, and the README says no real transaction was attempted.

      Any width, 2026-11-12. curl -s https://ethereum-sepolia-rpc.publicnode.com -H 'content-type: application/json' -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"eth_call","params":[{"to":"0xfd6c166d4b8e2962e65746a13e5a0797cd4de0c4","data":"0x83d0e1d7"},"latest"]}' returns {"error":{"code":3,"message":"execution reverted","data":"0x"}}, and https://1rpc.io/sepolia gives the same answer.

      The same eth_call with data 0xc19d93fb (state()) returns word0 = 0x4a6 (1190).

      0x83d0e1d7 does not occur among the PUSH4 selectors in the implementation bytecode.

      In the app: connect a Sepolia wallet, sign in, finish a live run in a settled round, press 'Checkpoint this run on-chain'.

      Expected: a wallet confirmation prompt.

      Actual: the status reads 'Sepolia could not be reached to check the round.

      Your run is saved here; try again in a moment.' on every try, and the wallet is never asked.

    • mediumbug: a wallet's best run drops off the public leaderboard once newer score events push it past the relay query limitsrc/chain/leaderboard.ts:161

      Now: buildScoreEvent publishes one new event per finished run (each has a unique d tag, line 115). fetchBoard asks each relay for one page of the newest events (limit 2000, and NIP-01 relays return the newest first), then aggregateBoard keeps each wallet's highest score from that page only. Once 2000 newer runs exist (fewer on relays that cap filter limits below that), an old high score is no longer fetched, and the wallet's row falls back to a lower score or disappears.

      Change to: make each wallet's best a single addressable event. Use d = ${BOARD_TAG}:${address.toLowerCase()} (no timestamp), and publish only when the new score beats the wallet's current best (fetchBoard already knows it from mergedRows()). The relay then keeps exactly one best event per player key and wallet, and the query covers every wallet instead of every run.

      Why: brief: 'the score shown is the wallet's best signed run' and 'The leaderboard must be real shared state'. A best that disappears as other people play isn't the best signed run.

      Any width.

      Code path: sign in, finish a live run scoring 9,000, then let the relays receive 2,000 later score events from any players (every finished signed live run adds one; see publish() at src/onchain.ts:310).

      Load the page as a second visitor: fetchBoard sends {kinds:[30078],'#t':['tempo-squeek-board-v1'],limit:2000}, the 9,000 event is older than every returned event, and the wallet's row shows its best among the newest 2,000 events, or no row.

      Expected: 9,000 stays as that wallet's best.

    • lowtaste: below 448px the header splits into two rows, pushing the game down a full control rowsrc/styles.css:279

      Now: under @media (max-width: 28rem), .header-actions gets flex-basis 100%, so the sound, How to play and Connect wallet controls always drop onto a second header row under the brand, at 390 and 320. The game cabinet starts one 44px control row plus 8px row-gap lower than in the previous build.

      Change to: delete this line and .site-header { flex-wrap: wrap; row-gap: 8px; } at line 278. Keep the controls on the brand row: .help-label is already hidden at this width, and the wallet label can shorten to 'Connect' at 390 while staying a labelled button (its aria-label already says 'Connect wallet'). The cabinet moves up about 52px.

      Why: reference: a game's title and help sit in the top corners over the scene, and the product must stay on the first screen at 390. The brief also says the existing presentation and responsive layout stay as they are.

      Width 390 (also 320), first load with no wallet.

      The CSS rule forces .header-actions to a 100% flex-basis, so it wraps below .brand and the header becomes two rows.

      At 449px and wider it stays on one row.

      The probe could not render here to measure the pixel offset (Chromium blocked by the sandbox); the wrap follows directly from flex: 1 0 100%.

    All three previous findings are fixed. .imd-findings.json contains {"findings":[]}. No project files were changed.

    • Checkpoint ABI: mining.ts:93 calls state(). Live reads returned settled round 1194; the production browser test reached wallet submission with exact checkpoint() calldata.
    • Best-score retention: leaderboard.ts:115 uses a stable addressable event. The capped-relay regression retains the older 9,000 best; lower completed runs publish no replacement.
    • Mobile header: styles.css:279 no longer forces a second utility row. At both 320px and 390px, the unsigned header measures 44px and the cabinet starts at y=84px. The 200% text check also passes.
