+"""Visual RSim simulation for verifying referee command behaviour.
+
+Run with:
+    pixi run python utama_core/tests/referee/referee_sim.py
+
+What it does:
+  - Starts a 3v3 RSim with StartupStrategy as the base strategy.
+  - The RefereeOverride tree (built automatically by AbstractStrategy) intercepts
+    referee commands and overrides robot behaviour accordingly.
+  - A scripted referee cycles through all referee commands every few seconds so
+    you can watch how robots respond visually in the RSim window.
+
+Command cycle (each held for SECS_PER_COMMAND seconds):
+  1.  HALT                   → all robots stop immediately
+  2.  STOP                   → all robots stop in place
+  3.  TIMEOUT_YELLOW         → all robots idle
+  4.  PREPARE_KICKOFF_YELLOW → robot 0 approaches centre, others fan out to own half
+  5.  PREPARE_KICKOFF_BLUE   → all robots move to own-half defence positions
+  6.  PREPARE_PENALTY_YELLOW → kicker at penalty mark, others line up behind
+  7.  PREPARE_PENALTY_BLUE   → goalkeeper on goal line, others line up behind mark
+  8.  DIRECT_FREE_YELLOW     → closest robot approaches ball
+  9.  DIRECT_FREE_BLUE       → all robots stop
+  10. BALL_PLACEMENT_YELLOW  → closest robot drives to designated position
+  11. NORMAL_START           → pass-through: StartupStrategy runs freely

Subject: [PATCH 005/142] fix: make RefereeData.__eq__ actually override tuple
 equality; fix test bugs
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

- Convert RefereeData from NamedTuple to @dataclass(eq=False) so the
  custom __eq__ is respected (NamedTuple.__eq__ cannot be overridden —
  tuple equality always wins)
- Use TYPE_CHECKING guard for TeamInfo import to avoid circular import
  (game/__init__ → Game → GameFrame → RefereeData → TeamInfo → game/__init__)
- __eq__ compares TeamInfo by .score and .goalkeeper (the mutable game-state
  fields) since TeamInfo has no structural __eq__ of its own
- Add __hash__ consistent with the subset of fields used in __eq__
- RefereeRefiner.add_new_referee_data: replace tuple slicing [1:] with ==
  (now correctly uses the custom __eq__)
- test_referee_unit.py: fix GameHistory() → GameHistory(10) (max_history
  is a required positional argument)

+"""demo_custom_referee.py — visual demonstration of the CustomReferee system.
+
+Runs entirely in-process (no network, no RSim binary needed). A scripted
+scenario exercises every referee rule in sequence while the pygame window shows:
+  - The field with robots and ball
+  - Purple polygons: defense area boundaries
+  - Red circle: keep-out zone (during stoppages)
+  - Green crosshair: designated_position (ball reset target, e.g. centre after goal)
+  - HUD bar: current command (colour-coded), score, next command, designated pos, scene label
+
+Each scene in SCENES declares:
+  - What command to force at scene start (simulates operator "play" button)
+  - How the ball moves (keyframes interpolated over the scene duration)
+  - How robots move (per-robot keyframes)
+  - Whether to simulate the ball teleport on STOP (ball_teleports_on_stop=True)
+
+Controls:
+    ESC / close window — quit
+    SPACE             — pause / unpause
+    R                 — restart from scene 0
+    → / ←            — skip forward / back one scene

+# Custom Referee
+
+The `CustomReferee` is an in-process, mode-agnostic referee that operates on `GameFrame` objects and produces `RefereeData` — the same type consumed by the behaviour tree's `CheckRefereeCommand` nodes. It requires no network connection, no AutoReferee process, and no simulator-specific code. It works identically across RSim, grSim, and Real modes.
+
+---
+
+## Why a Custom Referee?
+
+The official [TIGERs AutoReferee](https://github.com/TIGERs-Mannheim/AutoReferee) is a Java process that broadcasts UDP multicast packets. It works well in Real and grSim modes but is not usable in RSim (no AutoReferee process is running) and is impractical for RL training (asynchronous, real-time only, can't step faster than 60 Hz).
+
+The `CustomReferee` addresses three specific use cases:
+
+**1. RSim / RL training**
+RSim runs as fast as the CPU allows. The custom referee steps synchronously in the same Python process, so there is no network latency or synchronisation overhead. You can train at 10 000× real-time.
+
+**2. Custom field geometry**
+The official AutoReferee has hardcoded thresholds (defence area size, keep-out radius) that break on small physical test fields. `RefereeGeometry` is a frozen dataclass you configure per-deployment — shrink the defence area, tighten or loosen the keep-out radius, disable rules entirely.
+
+**3. Exhibition and human game modes**
+Strict SSL rules (double-touch, ball speed, keep-out distance) ruin human-vs-robot exhibition matches because humans constantly trigger fouls. Profile-based configuration lets you switch rule sets without touching code.
+
+---
+
+## Architecture
+
+```
+CustomReferee
+├── RefereeGeometry          # frozen field dimensions (configurable)
+├── list[BaseRule]           # ordered rule checkers (first match wins)
+│   ├── GoalRule
+│   ├── OutOfBoundsRule
+│   ├── DefenseAreaRule
+│   └── KeepOutRule
+└── GameStateMachine         # mutable command / score / stage state
+```
+
+### Data flow per tick
+
+```
+GameFrame (ball + robots + ts)
+        │
+        ▼
+CustomReferee.step(game_frame, current_time)
+        │
+        ├─► for each BaseRule (in priority order):
+        │       rule.check(game_frame, geometry, current_command)
+        │       → Optional[RuleViolation]       first match wins
+        │
+        ▼
+GameStateMachine.step(current_time, violation)
+        │
+        ├─► if violation and not in cooldown (0.3 s):
+        │       goal   → increment score, set STOP, set next_command,
+        │                set designated_position = (0.0, 0.0)
+        │       foul   → set suggested_command, set next_command, set designated_position
+        │
+        ▼
+RefereeData  (source_identifier="custom_referee")
+```
+
+The one-frame lag (the `GameFrame` used is from the previous step) is acceptable and matches how the existing RSim `RefereeStateMachine` works.
+
+---
+
+## State Machine
+
+The `GameStateMachine` owns all mutable state: command, score, stage, and next command. It does **not** auto-advance from `STOP` to `NORMAL_START` — that transition is always explicit (operator input or a fixed-delay script). This keeps control predictable.
+
+```mermaid
+stateDiagram-v2
+    direction LR
+
+    [*] --> HALT : initialise
+
+    HALT --> STOP
+    HALT --> NORMAL_START
+

+    STOP --> PREPARE_KICKOFF_YELLOW

+    NORMAL_START --> STOP : OutOfBoundsRule fires\n[designated_position set]
+    NORMAL_START --> STOP : DefenseAreaRule fires

+    FORCE_START --> STOP : OutOfBoundsRule fires
+    FORCE_START --> STOP : DefenseAreaRule fires
+
+    STOP --> STOP : KeepOutRule fires\n[next_cmd = DIRECT_FREE_*]
+
+    PREPARE_KICKOFF_YELLOW --> NORMAL_START
+    PREPARE_KICKOFF_BLUE --> NORMAL_START
+    DIRECT_FREE_YELLOW --> NORMAL_START
+    DIRECT_FREE_BLUE --> NORMAL_START
+
+    NORMAL_START --> FORCE_START
+    FORCE_START --> NORMAL_START
+```
+
+> **Key design principle:** `CustomReferee` only ever *moves into* `STOP` automatically. All transitions *out of* `STOP` require an explicit `set_command()` call. This matches how a human operator interacts with a real game controller.  
+> More thoughts on this, in RL loop / automated testing, we do want the referee system to resume the game after our system is ready, e.g. putting ball at designated location and ready to start.
+
+### Transition cooldown
+
+A 0.3 s cooldown (`_TRANSITION_COOLDOWN`) prevents the same violation from being applied multiple times in quick succession (e.g., the ball briefly in the goal for several frames).
+
+---
+
+## Rule Checkers
+
+Each rule is a `BaseRule` subclass. Rules are evaluated in priority order; the **first match wins** and subsequent rules are skipped for that tick.
+
+### Priority order
+
+| Priority | Rule | Active during |
+|----------|------|---------------|
+| 1 | `GoalRule` | `NORMAL_START`, `FORCE_START` |
+| 2 | `OutOfBoundsRule` | `NORMAL_START`, `FORCE_START` |
+| 3 | `DefenseAreaRule` | `NORMAL_START`, `FORCE_START` |
+| 4 | `KeepOutRule` | `STOP`, `DIRECT_FREE_*`, `PREPARE_KICKOFF_*`, `PREPARE_PENALTY_*` |
+
+### GoalRule
+
+Detects when the ball crosses the goal line within the goal posts. Uses `game_frame.my_team_is_right` and `game_frame.my_team_is_yellow` to determine which team scored — not a hardcoded assignment.
+
+```
+yellow_is_right = (my_team_is_right == my_team_is_yellow)
+
+ball in right goal:
+    yellow_is_right=True  → blue scored  → PREPARE_KICKOFF_YELLOW
+    yellow_is_right=False → yellow scored → PREPARE_KICKOFF_BLUE
+
+ball in left goal:
+    yellow_is_right=True  → yellow scored → PREPARE_KICKOFF_BLUE
+    yellow_is_right=False → blue scored   → PREPARE_KICKOFF_YELLOW
+```
+
+A configurable `cooldown_seconds` (default 1.0 s) prevents duplicate detections while the ball sits past the goal line for multiple frames.
+
+### OutOfBoundsRule
+
+Fires when `abs(ball.p.x) > half_length` (not in a goal) or `abs(ball.p.y) > half_width`. Tracks last-touch by:
+1. Checking `robot.has_ball` (reliable IR sensor on friendly robots).
+2. Falling back to the closest robot within 0.15 m.
+
+The non-touching team receives the `DIRECT_FREE_*`. The `designated_position` is placed 0.1 m infield from the nearest boundary point.
+
+### DefenseAreaRule
+
+Only active during `NORMAL_START` and `FORCE_START`. Checks two conditions:
+
+- **Too many defenders:** more than `max_defenders` (default 1) friendly robots inside their own defence area → opponent gets `DIRECT_FREE_*`.
+- **Attacker infringement:** any enemy robot inside the friendly team's defence area → friendly team gets `DIRECT_FREE_*`.
+
+Uses `game_frame.my_team_is_right` to resolve which geometry helper (`is_in_left/right_defense_area`) corresponds to "my" goal.
+
+### KeepOutRule
+
+Only active during stoppages (`STOP`, `DIRECT_FREE_*`, `PREPARE_KICKOFF_*`, `PREPARE_PENALTY_*`). Checks that non-kicking-team robots stay outside a configurable `radius_meters` (default 0.5 m) from the ball.
+
+Uses a persistence counter: a violation is only issued after `violation_persistence_frames` (default 30, ≈ 0.5 s at 60 Hz) **consecutive** frames of encroachment. This avoids false positives from robots passing through the zone.
+
+---
+
+## Geometry
+
+`RefereeGeometry` is a frozen dataclass that decouples the referee from `Field`. It never modifies `Field` constants.
+
+```python
+@dataclass(frozen=True)
+class RefereeGeometry:
+    half_length: float           # metres from centre to goal line
+    half_width: float            # metres from centre to sideline
+    half_goal_width: float       # half the goal opening width
+    half_defense_length: float   # depth of defence area
+    half_defense_width: float    # half-width of defence area
+    center_circle_radius: float  # keep-out radius for kickoffs
+```
+
+Two convenience constructors:
+
+- `RefereeGeometry.from_standard_div_b()` — mirrors `Field` constants exactly (9 m × 6 m field).
+- `RefereeGeometry.from_field_bounds(field_bounds)` — derives `half_length`/`half_width` from a `FieldBounds`; uses `Field` constants for goal and defence dimensions.
+
+---
+
+## Profiles
+
+Three built-in YAML profiles select the active rule set. Load by name or file path:
+
+```python
+referee = CustomReferee.from_profile_name("simulation")
+referee = CustomReferee.from_profile_name("/path/to/my_profile.yaml")
+```
+
+| Setting | `simulation` | `exhibition` | `human` |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| Goal detection | ✅ 1.0 s cooldown | ✅ 1.0 s cooldown | ✅ 1.0 s cooldown |
+| Out of bounds | ✅ | ✅ | ❌ |
+| Defence area | ✅ max 1 defender | ✅ max 1 defender | ❌ |
+| Keep-out radius | ✅ 0.5 m | ✅ 0.2 m | ❌ |
+| Force start after goal | ❌ | ❌ | ❌ |
+| Half duration | 300 s | 300 s | 300 s |
+
+**`simulation`** — Full SSL-compatible rule set with auto-advance enabled for most restarts. Use for simulator testing, AI-vs-AI development, and RL training.
+
+**`human`** — Goal detection only, with operator-controlled stage transitions. Use for human-involved scenarios such as real-world testing and physical field sessions where a referee operator should control restarts explicitly.
+
+### YAML schema
+
+```yaml
+profile_name: "simulation"
+geometry:
+  half_length: 4.5
+  half_width: 3.0
+  half_goal_width: 0.5
+  half_defense_length: 0.5
+  half_defense_width: 1.0
+  center_circle_radius: 0.5
+rules:
+  goal_detection:
+    enabled: true
+    cooldown_seconds: 1.0
+  out_of_bounds:
+    enabled: true
+    free_kick_assigner: "last_touch"
+  defense_area:
+    enabled: true
+    max_defenders: 1
+    attacker_infringement: true
+  keep_out:
+    enabled: true
+    radius_meters: 0.5
+    violation_persistence_frames: 30
+game:
+  half_duration_seconds: 300.0
+  kickoff_team: "yellow"
+  force_start_after_goal: false
+```
+
+---
+
+## Integration with StrategyRunner
+
+`StrategyRunner` accepts an optional `custom_referee` parameter. When set:
+
+1. `RefereeMessageReceiver` is **not** started (no UDP multicast thread).
+2. Each tick, `CustomReferee.step()` is called with `self.my_current_game_frame` and the result is pushed into `ref_buffer` before `_step_game()` reads it.
+3. On the **transition edge** into `STOP` (i.e. the first frame the command becomes `STOP`), if `RefereeData.designated_position` is not `None` and a `sim_controller` is present, the ball is teleported to `designated_position` in the simulator. After a goal this is always `(0.0, 0.0)` — the centre spot.
+
+```python
+from utama_core.custom_referee import CustomReferee
+from utama_core.entities.referee.referee_command import RefereeCommand
+
+referee = CustomReferee.from_profile_name("simulation", n_robots_yellow=3, n_robots_blue=3)
+referee.set_command(RefereeCommand.NORMAL_START, timestamp=0.0)
+
+runner = StrategyRunner(
+    strategy=MyStrategy(),
+    my_team_is_yellow=True,
+    my_team_is_right=False,
+    mode="rsim",
+    exp_friendly=3,
+    exp_enemy=3,
+    custom_referee=referee,
+)
+runner.run()
+```
+
+The same `CustomReferee` instance works unchanged when `mode="grsim"` or `mode="real"` — the referee has no code paths that depend on mode. In `mode="real"` the ball teleport is silently skipped (`sim_controller` is `None`).
+
+### Ball teleport after goal (RSim / grSim)
+
+When a goal is scored the state machine sets `designated_position = (0.0, 0.0)` and issues `STOP`. On the very next `_run_step()` call `StrategyRunner` detects the `NORMAL_START → STOP` edge and calls `sim_controller.teleport_ball(0.0, 0.0)`. This resets the ball to the kick-off spot without any manual operator intervention.
+
+The edge-detection guard (`_prev_custom_ref_command != STOP`) ensures the teleport fires exactly once — not every frame while the game remains in `STOP`.
+
+### Manual command injection (RL / test scripts)
+
+```python
+referee.set_command(RefereeCommand.NORMAL_START, timestamp=time.time())
+```
+
+This is the standard way to resume play after a stoppage in scripted environments.
+
+---
+
+## Downstream pipeline (unchanged)
+
+`CustomReferee` slots into the existing pipeline without any changes below `StrategyRunner`:
+
+```
+CustomReferee.step(game_frame, t)
+    → RefereeData (source_identifier="custom_referee")
+    → ref_buffer
+    → StrategyRunner._run_step reads ref_buffer
+    → RefereeRefiner.refine(game_frame, referee_data)
+    → game_frame.referee = RefereeData
+    → game.referee (via Game.referee property)
+    → CheckRefereeCommand reads game.referee.referee_command
+    → Behaviour tree reacts
+```

+
+## Running tests
+
+```bash
+pixi run pytest utama_core/tests/custom_referee/ -v
+```
+
+## Running the visual demo
+
+```bash
+pixi run python demo_custom_referee.py
+```
+
+The demo runs 6 scripted scenes in sequence, each exercising one rule. Controls: `SPACE` pause, `R` restart, `←` / `→` skip scenes.
+
+## Running the custom referee GUI with RSim
+
+`demo_referee_gui_rsim.py` combines `CustomReferee`, a browser-based GUI, and `StrategyRunner` in RSim mode. It replaces the deprecated `demo_referee_gui.py` and `referee_gui.py`.
+
+```bash
+pixi run python demo_referee_gui_rsim.py
+# RSim window opens; open http://localhost:8080 in a browser
+```
+
+### What it does
+
+- Creates a `CustomReferee` with `enable_gui=True`, which starts an HTTP server on a background daemon thread.
+- Passes the referee to `StrategyRunner` via `custom_referee=`. `StrategyRunner` calls `referee.step()` on every tick and handles ball teleports on `STOP` automatically.
+- Uses `WanderingStrategy` so robots visibly move; the `RefereeOverride` behaviour tree interrupts them when you issue commands from the GUI.
+
+### Operator workflow
+
+1. Open `http://localhost:8080` in a browser.
+2. Robots start moving under `WanderingStrategy`.
+3. Click any command button (Halt, Stop, Kickoff Yellow…) — robots reposition.
+4. Click **Normal Start** to resume free play.
+5. With the `human` profile, a goal triggers `STOP` and waits for operator input.
+
+### Configuration (top of file)
+
+| Variable | Default | Description |
+|---|---|---|
+| `PROFILE` | `"human"` | Profile name (`"human"` or `"simulation"`) |
+| `GUI_PORT` | `8080` | Browser GUI port |
+| `N_ROBOTS` | `3` | Robots per side |
+| `MY_TEAM_IS_YELLOW` | `True` | Team colour |
+| `MY_TEAM_IS_RIGHT` | `True` | Team side |
+
+### Enabling the GUI in your own code
+
+Pass `enable_gui=True` (and optionally `gui_port`) to `CustomReferee`:
+
+```python
+referee = CustomReferee(
+    profile,
+    n_robots_yellow=3,
+    n_robots_blue=3,
+    enable_gui=True,
+    gui_port=8080,
+)
+```
+
+Or via the convenience constructor:
+
+```python
+referee = CustomReferee.from_profile_name("simulation", enable_gui=True, gui_port=8080)
+```
+
+The GUI server imports `referee_gui` lazily, so there is no HTTP/GUI dependency overhead when `enable_gui=False` (the default).

+operator explicitly advances the game stage. The `simulation` profile remains the
+auto-progressing built-in profile for simulator, testing, and RL workflows.
+
+---
+
+## 2. ✅ `PrepareKickoffTheirsStep` doesn't enforce own-half requirement — resolved
+
+**Resolution (2026-03-13):** Implemented Option B. After radial clearance, each robot's x
+coordinate is clamped to our own half (`max(0, x)` when right, `min(0, x)` when left).
+
+---
+
+## 3. `OutOfBoundsRule` unknown last-touch defaults to yellow
+
+**File:** `utama_core/custom_referee/rules/out_of_bounds_rule.py`
+
+**Current behaviour:**
+When the ball goes out and no robot was detected touching it (`_last_touch_was_friendly = None`),
+the rule awards `DIRECT_FREE_YELLOW`.
+
+**Relevant rule (SSL):** The last-touching team loses possession (other team gets free kick).
+If truly unknown, the standard is a coin flip or alternating possession — not a fixed team.
+
+**Options:**
+- **A (current, keep):** Default to yellow. Simple, predictable, slightly unfair.
+- **B (alternate):** Track which team was awarded the last unknown-touch free kick and
+  alternate. Fairer over many occurrences.
+- **C (favor defending team):** Award to the team in whose half the ball went out. Rough
+  approximation of "attacker kicked it out".
+
+**Recommendation:** Option A is fine for a simplified system. Option C is easy to implement
+and slightly more realistic if desired.
+
+---
+
+## 4. `KeepOutRule` violation count carries over between command changes
+
+**File:** `utama_core/custom_referee/rules/keep_out_rule.py`
+
+**Current behaviour:**
+`_violation_count` accumulates across command changes (e.g., transitions from
+`DIRECT_FREE_YELLOW` to `PREPARE_KICKOFF_BLUE`). If a robot was encroaching for 20 frames
+under one command and the command changes, it only needs 10 more frames under the new command
+to trigger a violation.
+
+**Risk level:** Low — the transition cooldown (`_TRANSITION_COOLDOWN = 0.3 s`) means the
+command change and any new violation are unlikely to overlap. Also, robot positions are
+usually compliant after a command transition.
+
+**Options:**
+- **A (current, keep):** Accept the minor inconsistency. The persistence threshold (30 frames)
+  is large enough to make false positives very unlikely.
+- **B (reset on command change):** Track the previous command and reset `_violation_count`
+  whenever `current_command` changes. Clean, low cost.
+
+**Recommendation:** Option B is a one-liner fix with no downside.
+
+---
+
+## 5. ✅ `BallPlacementTheirsStep` has no active clearance — resolved
+
+**Resolution (2026-03-13):** Implemented Option B. Robots within `_BALL_KEEP_DIST` (0.55 m)
+of the ball are now pushed radially outward, matching the pattern used in `DirectFreeTheirsStep`.
+Option C (line-segment clearance) remains deferred.
+
+---
+
+## 6. `GoalRule` only fires during NORMAL_START and FORCE_START
+
+**File:** `utama_core/custom_referee/rules/goal_rule.py`
+
+**Current behaviour:**
+Goal detection is disabled during all stoppages (STOP, PREPARE_KICKOFF, etc.).
+
+**Edge case:** If the ball rolls into a goal during a stoppage (e.g., a robot accidentally
+nudges it during STOP clearance), no goal is detected.
+
+**Relevant rule:** In SSL, the game is stopped during stoppages so the ball isn't "in play"
+and a goal during a stoppage doesn't count. This is correct behaviour.
+
+**Status:** No change needed. Documented here for clarity.
+
+---
+
+## 7. ✅ Penalty kick rules are incomplete — partially resolved
+
+**Resolution (2026-03-13):** Implemented Option B. Non-kicker robots (both teams) are now
+placed at `y = ±3.0 m` (touch-line boundary) rather than spread across the field.
+The x-coordinate (`behind_line_x`) is unchanged — robots remain behind the penalty mark.
+Full off-field placement (Option C) is deferred until the simulator supports it.
+Penalty kicks remain disabled in all built-in profiles.

+# Custom Referee Web GUI
+
+`demo_referee_gui_rsim.py` (project root) is a standalone browser-based operator panel for the
+`CustomReferee`. It lets you issue referee commands, watch live scores and robot positions,
+and inspect the active profile — all from a browser tab. It requires no npm, no build step,
+and no dependencies beyond the project's existing Python environment.
+
+---
+
+## Quick start
+
+```bash
+pixi run python demo_referee_gui_rsim.py
+```
+
+Then open **http://localhost:8080** in any browser.
+
+The referee starts in **HALT**. A typical pre-match sequence is:
+
+```
+Halt → Stop → Kickoff Yellow → Normal Start
+```
+
+---
+
+
+## UI areas
+
+The page has five areas.
+
+### 1. Scoreboard
+
+Live yellow / blue scores, updated in real time.
+
+### 2. Status block
+
+Four read-only fields that reflect the current referee state:
+
+| Field | What it shows |
+|---|---|
+| **Command** | Current referee command, colour-coded: red = HALT, orange = STOP, green = NORMAL/FORCE START, yellow/blue = team-specific commands |
+| **Next** | `next_command` — the command that will follow the current stoppage, if known |
+| **Stage** | Game stage (e.g. `NORMAL FIRST HALF`) and time remaining (mm:ss) |
+| **Designated** | Ball placement target in metres — hidden when `designated_position` is null |
+
+### 3. Command buttons
+
+Clicking a button immediately issues that command to the `CustomReferee`.
+
+The **Advanced** toggle reveals penalty and ball-placement buttons that are rarely needed
+manually (they are usually auto-detected). Hover over any button to see a tooltip describing
+when to use it.
+
+| Row | Buttons |
+|---|---|
+| Flow control | Halt · Stop · Normal Start · Force Start |
+| Kickoffs | Kickoff Yellow · Kickoff Blue |
+| Free kicks | Free Kick Yellow · Free Kick Blue |
+| Penalties *(adv)* | Penalty Yellow · Penalty Blue |
+| Ball placement *(adv)* | Ball Placement Yellow · Ball Placement Blue |
+
+#### Button reference
+
+| Button | Command issued | When to press | What robots do |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| **Halt** | `HALT` | Emergency stop; any unsafe situation | Immediately zero velocity — no movement |
+| **Stop** | `STOP` | Pause between incidents; pre-match | Slow to ≤1.5 m/s, stay ≥0.5 m from ball |
+| **Normal Start** | `NORMAL_START` | After kickoff / free kick robots are in position | Game live — strategy tree takes over |
+| **Force Start** | `FORCE_START` | Double-touch infringement; stalled play | Game live — ball at current position, no placement |
+| **Kickoff Yellow** | `PREPARE_KICKOFF_YELLOW` | Half-start or after Blue scores | Yellow kicker approaches centre; others to own half |
+| **Kickoff Blue** | `PREPARE_KICKOFF_BLUE` | After Yellow scores | Blue kicker approaches centre; others to own half |
+| **Free Kick Yellow** | `DIRECT_FREE_YELLOW` | Foul by Blue | Yellow kicker near ball; Blue ≥0.5 m away |
+| **Free Kick Blue** | `DIRECT_FREE_BLUE` | Foul by Yellow | Blue kicker near ball; Yellow ≥0.5 m away |
+| **Penalty Yellow** *(adv)* | `PREPARE_PENALTY_YELLOW` | Usually auto-detected; manual override only | Yellow kicker at penalty mark; others behind line |
+| **Penalty Blue** *(adv)* | `PREPARE_PENALTY_BLUE` | Usually auto-detected; manual override only | Blue kicker at penalty mark; others behind line |
+| **Ball Placement Yellow** *(adv)* | `BALL_PLACEMENT_YELLOW` | Manual placement command | Yellow robot moves ball to `designated_position` |
+| **Ball Placement Blue** *(adv)* | `BALL_PLACEMENT_BLUE` | Manual placement command | Blue robot moves ball to `designated_position` |
+
+#### Auto-detected vs manual
+
+| Command category | Detection | Notes |
+|---|---|---|
+| Goal → kickoff | Auto (`GoalRule`) | Operator sets kickoff team before half starts |
+| Out-of-bounds → free kick | Auto (`OutOfBoundsRule`) | `free_kick_assigner` in profile controls which team |
+| Defense area → penalty | Auto (`DefenseAreaRule`, if enabled) | Penalty buttons are in **Advanced** row; hidden by default |
+| Ball placement | Auto (`OutOfBoundsRule`, if enabled) | Manual override via Advanced row if auto fails |
+
+#### Typical sequences
+
+Standard half start:
+```
+Halt → Stop → Kickoff Yellow → Normal Start
+```
+
+After goal (human profile — auto-restart):
+```
+(Goal auto-detected) → Stop → (auto Force Start after stop_duration_seconds)
+```
+
+Manual free kick:
+```
+Halt → Stop → Free Kick Yellow → Normal Start
+```
+
+### 4. Field canvas
+
+A top-down view of the field, updated at ~30 Hz via SSE.
+
+| Element | Colour | Notes |
+|---|---|---|
+| Field background | Green | Scales automatically to profile geometry |
+| Lines / circles | White | Boundary, centre line, centre circle, defence areas |
+| Left goal | Yellow (translucent) | Yellow team's goal (negative x side) |
+| Right goal | Blue (translucent) | Blue team's goal (positive x side) |
+| Friendly robots | Yellow filled circle | ID label above; orientation line shows heading |
+| Enemy robots | Blue filled circle | ID label above; orientation line shows heading |
+| Ball | Orange filled circle | Minimum 4 px radius |
+| Designated × | White cross | Ball placement target; hidden when `designated_position` is null |
+
+### 5. Profile config panel
+
+A read-only display of the active profile loaded at startup, confirming what geometry and
+rules are in effect.
+
+| Section | Fields shown |
+|---|---|
+| Field geometry | half length, half width, half goal width, defense length/width (half), centre circle radius — all in metres |
+| Game settings | half duration (minutes), kickoff team, force-start-after-goal flag, stop duration (seconds), auto-advance flags |
+| Goal detection | enabled (ON/OFF), cooldown seconds |
+| Out of bounds | enabled (ON/OFF), free-kick assigner method |
+| Defense area | enabled (ON/OFF), max defenders, attacker infringement flag |
+| Keep-out zone | enabled (ON/OFF), radius (metres), violation persistence (frames) |
+
+Boolean fields are shown as green **ON** / red **OFF** pills. The panel title and browser tab
+title both show the profile name.
+
+A small green dot at the bottom of the page indicates the SSE connection is live. If it turns
+grey, the browser will reconnect automatically.
+
+### Event log
+
+The **Event Log** panel shows the 20 most recent events, newest first.
+
+| Entry type | Colour | Trigger |
+|---|---|---|
+| Command change | Green | `d.command` differs from the previous message |
+| Score change | Yellow | `d.yellow_score` or `d.blue_score` differs |
+| Status message | Grey (muted) | `d.status_message` is non-empty and differs from previous value |
+
+---
+
+## Profiles
+
+Built-in profiles live in `utama_core/custom_referee/profiles/`:
+
+| Profile | Rules active | Auto-advances |
+|---|---|---|
+| `human` | Goal detection only | All off — operator advances commands manually |
+| `simulation` | All four rules (goal, out-of-bounds, defense area, keep-out) | Mostly on — simulator workflow auto-progresses when criteria are met |
+
+Use `human` for physical environments where a referee operator must control transitions for
+safety and testing. Use `simulation` for simulator, strategy testing, and RL workflows.
+
+---
+
+## Changing field dimensions
+
+All six `geometry` fields are in **metres** and are fully dynamic — every rule reads geometry
+on each tick, so changing a value in the profile instantly changes rule behaviour. The field
+canvas auto-scales to match.
+
+| Field | Controls | Rules affected |
+|---|---|---|
+| `half_length` | Distance from centre to goal line | GoalRule, OutOfBoundsRule, DefenseAreaRule |
+| `half_width` | Distance from centre to touch line | OutOfBoundsRule |
+| `half_goal_width` | Half-width of each goal mouth | GoalRule |
+| `half_defense_length` | Depth of defence area | DefenseAreaRule |
+| `half_defense_width` | Half-width of defence area | DefenseAreaRule |
+| `center_circle_radius` | Centre circle drawn on canvas; reserved for future keep-out rule | — |
+
+---
+
+## Configuring rules
+
+Every tuneable parameter and its effect:
+
+| Key | Type | Effect |
+|---|---|---|
+| `goal_detection.enabled` | bool | Enables/disables goal scoring |
+| `goal_detection.cooldown_seconds` | float | Prevents double-counting within this window |
+| `out_of_bounds.enabled` | bool | Enables free-kick on ball exit |
+| `out_of_bounds.free_kick_assigner` | `"last_touch"` | Team awarded the free kick |
+| `defense_area.enabled` | bool | Enables defender/attacker penalty |
+| `defense_area.max_defenders` | int | Max robots allowed inside own defence area |
+| `defense_area.attacker_infringement` | bool | Also penalise attackers who enter opponent area |
+| `keep_out.enabled` | bool | Enables exclusion zone around ball during stoppages |
+| `keep_out.radius_meters` | float | Exclusion radius in metres |
+| `keep_out.violation_persistence_frames` | int | Frames robot must stay clear before violation clears |
+| `game.half_duration_seconds` | float | Length of each half |
+| `game.kickoff_team` | `"yellow"` or `"blue"` | Which team kicks off at the start |
+| `game.force_start_after_goal` | bool | Legacy human fast-path; superseded by `auto_advance` flags |
+| `game.stop_duration_seconds` | float | STOP hold time before auto FORCE START (legacy human path) |
+| `game.auto_advance.stop_to_prepare_kickoff` | bool | Auto STOP → PREPARE_KICKOFF when all robots clear |
+| `game.auto_advance.prepare_kickoff_to_normal` | bool | Auto PREPARE_KICKOFF → NORMAL_START when kicker in position (2 s delay) |
+| `game.auto_advance.direct_free_to_normal` | bool | Auto DIRECT_FREE → NORMAL_START when kicker ready (2 s delay) |
+| `game.auto_advance.ball_placement_to_next` | bool | Auto BALL_PLACEMENT → next command when ball at target (2 s delay) |
+| `game.auto_advance.normal_start_to_force` | bool | Auto NORMAL_START → FORCE_START after kickoff timeout if ball hasn't moved |
+
+---
+
+## Auto-advance configuration
+
+The state machine can automatically advance through referee states when certain conditions are
+met. Each transition is independently configurable via the `auto_advance` block in the profile.
+
+### The five auto-advances
+
+| # | Transition | Trigger | Delay |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| 1 | `STOP` → `PREPARE_KICKOFF_*` | All robots ≥ 0.5 m from ball | None |
+| 2 | `PREPARE_KICKOFF_*` → `NORMAL_START` | Timer elapsed + kicker inside centre circle | **2 s** |
+| 3 | `DIRECT_FREE_*` → `NORMAL_START` | Kicker ≤ 0.3 m from ball + defenders ≥ 0.5 m away | **2 s** |
+| 4 | `BALL_PLACEMENT_*` → next command | Ball ≤ 0.15 m from placement target | **2 s** |
+| 5 | `NORMAL_START` → `FORCE_START` | Kickoff timeout elapsed + ball hasn't moved | None (uses `kickoff_timeout_seconds`) |
+
+Advances 2, 3, and 4 require the readiness condition to be **sustained for 2 seconds** before
+firing. If the condition drops out during that window (e.g. kicker steps back), the countdown
+resets. This gives robots time to settle before play begins.
+
+### Choosing settings by environment
+
+**Simulation (default):** All advances on. The state machine drives itself — no operator needed.
+
+```yaml
+game:
+  auto_advance:
+    stop_to_prepare_kickoff: true
+    prepare_kickoff_to_normal: true
+    direct_free_to_normal: true
+    ball_placement_to_next: true
+    normal_start_to_force: true
+```
+
+**Physical environment (safety):** All advances off. A human operator must explicitly issue
+every command. Robots will not start moving until the operator presses a button — ensuring
+nobody is on the field when play begins.
+
+```yaml
+game:
+  auto_advance:
+    stop_to_prepare_kickoff: false
+    prepare_kickoff_to_normal: false
+    direct_free_to_normal: false
+    ball_placement_to_next: false
+    normal_start_to_force: false
+```
+
+---
+
+## Creating a custom profile
+
+1. Copy an existing profile as a starting point:
+   ```bash
+   cp utama_core/custom_referee/profiles/human.yaml my_field.yaml
+   ```
+
+2. Edit `my_field.yaml` to match your field and rule requirements.
+
+3. Run the GUI with your profile:
+   ```bash
+   pixi run python demo_referee_gui_rsim.py --profile my_field.yaml
+   ```
+
+### Annotated YAML template
+
+```yaml
+profile_name: "my_profile"
+
+geometry:
+  half_length: 4.5          # metres from centre to goal line  (full length = 9.0 m)
+  half_width: 3.0           # metres from centre to touch line (full width  = 6.0 m)
+  half_goal_width: 0.5      # metres from centre of goal mouth to post
+  half_defense_length: 0.5  # depth of defence area from goal line
+  half_defense_width: 1.0   # half-width of defence area
+  center_circle_radius: 0.5 # used for canvas only (future: keep-out at kickoff)
+
+rules:
+  goal_detection:
+    enabled: true
+    cooldown_seconds: 1.0   # ignore further goals for this many seconds after one is scored
+
+  out_of_bounds:
+    enabled: true
+    free_kick_assigner: "last_touch"  # only option currently
+
+  defense_area:
+    enabled: true
+    max_defenders: 1                  # robots allowed inside own defence area
+    attacker_infringement: true       # penalise attackers entering opponent defence area
+
+  keep_out:
+    enabled: true
+    radius_meters: 0.5                # exclusion radius around ball during stoppages
+    violation_persistence_frames: 30  # consecutive frames of encroachment before penalty
+
+game:
+  half_duration_seconds: 300.0
+  kickoff_team: "yellow"
+  force_start_after_goal: false
+  stop_duration_seconds: 3.0
+  auto_advance:
+    stop_to_prepare_kickoff: true   # set false for physical/operator-driven environments
+    prepare_kickoff_to_normal: true
+    direct_free_to_normal: true
+    ball_placement_to_next: true
+    normal_start_to_force: true
+```
+
+### Worked example: small practice field (4 m × 2.67 m)
+
+```yaml
+profile_name: "practice_room"
+
+geometry:
+  half_length: 2.0
+  half_width: 1.335
+  half_goal_width: 0.35
+  half_defense_length: 0.4
+  half_defense_width: 0.7
+  center_circle_radius: 0.35
+
+rules:
+  goal_detection:
+    enabled: true
+    cooldown_seconds: 1.0
+  out_of_bounds:
+    enabled: true
+    free_kick_assigner: "last_touch"
+  defense_area:
+    enabled: false
+    max_defenders: 1
+    attacker_infringement: false
+  keep_out:
+    enabled: false
+    radius_meters: 0.3
+    violation_persistence_frames: 30
+
+game:
+  half_duration_seconds: 120.0
+  kickoff_team: "yellow"
+  force_start_after_goal: true
+  stop_duration_seconds: 2.0
+  auto_advance:
+    stop_to_prepare_kickoff: true
+    prepare_kickoff_to_normal: true
+    direct_free_to_normal: true
+    ball_placement_to_next: true
+    normal_start_to_force: true
+```
+
+The canvas will render a noticeably smaller field, and the profile panel will confirm the
+updated geometry values.
+
+---
+
+## Running with a live game loop
+
+`demo_referee_gui_rsim.py` on its own runs in standalone mode — the canvas shows a static empty field.
+To see live robots:
+
+```bash
+pixi run python utama_core/tests/referee/demo_referee_gui_rsim.py
+# RSim window opens; open http://localhost:8080 in a browser
+```
+
+This script starts a `CustomReferee` (default: `simulation` profile) with `enable_gui=True`,
+connects it to RSim, and drives `referee.step()` on every tick. Edit the `PROFILE`,
+`N_ROBOTS`, `MY_TEAM_IS_YELLOW`, and `MY_TEAM_IS_RIGHT` constants at the top of the file to
+configure it.

+# Referee Integration Design
+
+This document captures the design decisions for integrating the SSL Game Controller referee
+into Utama's behaviour tree architecture.
+
+---
+
+## 1. Referee Data
+
+### Fields in `RefereeData` 
+
+| Field | Type | Purpose |
+|---|---|---|
+| `referee_command` | `RefereeCommand` | Primary driver of the hardcoded tree |
+| `stage` | `Stage` | Game phase (first half, penalty shootout, etc.) |
+| `stage_time_left` | `float` | Seconds remaining in current stage |
+| `blue_team` / `yellow_team` | `TeamInfo` | Scores, cards, goalkeeper ID, foul counts |
+| `designated_position` | `Optional[Tuple[float, float]]` | Ball placement target (x, y) in metres |
+| `blue_team_on_positive_half` | `Optional[bool]` | Which side blue team defends |
+| `next_command` | `Optional[RefereeCommand]` | Command after current stoppage — use to pre-position |
+| `current_action_time_remaining` | `Optional[int]` | Microseconds remaining for ball placement / free kick |
+| `source_identifier` | `Optional[str]` | Which autoreferee sent this packet |
+
+### Fields recently added
+
+| Field | Protobuf source | Why useful |
+|---|---|---|
+| `game_events` | `repeated GameEvent game_events = 16` | Why the command was issued (foul type, ball-out side, etc.); useful for logging and future decision-making |
+| `match_type` | `optional MatchType match_type = 19` | FRIENDLY / GROUP_PHASE / ELIMINATION_PHASE; may affect strategy aggression |
+| `status_message` | `optional string status_message = 20` | Human-readable reason shown by referee UI; shown in live FPS display |
+
+`game_events`, `match_type`, and `status_message` are intentionally **excluded from `__eq__`**
+so they do not trigger spurious re-records in `RefereeRefiner`.
+
+`game_event_proposals` (field 17) are multi-referee vote accumulations and are not needed.
+
+---
+
+## 2. Game States and Required Robot Behaviour
+
+Rules sourced from the [SSL Rulebook](https://robocup-ssl.github.io/ssl-rules/sslrules.html).
+
+| Command | Our robots must... | Key constraint |
+|---|---|---|
+| **HALT** | Immediately zero velocity. No movement. | 2-second grace period to brake. Highest priority. |
+| **STOP** | Slow to ≤ 1.5 m/s, stay ≥ 0.5 m from ball. No ball contact. | Also ≥ 0.2 m from opponent defence area. |
+| **TIMEOUT_YELLOW / BLUE** | Idle; effectively STOP behaviour. | Not our timeout: nothing forced, but safe to stop. |
+| **PREPARE_KICKOFF (ours)** | All except kicker go to own half, outside centre circle. Kicker approaches ball at centre. Do not touch ball yet. | Centre circle radius = 0.5 m. |
+| **PREPARE_KICKOFF (theirs)** | All robots to own half, outside centre circle. | Same zone constraint. |
+| **NORMAL_START** (after kickoff / free kick) | Game live — pass to strategy tree. | Ball is now in play. |
+| **FORCE_START** | Game live — pass to strategy tree. | Ball at current position; no placement needed. |
+| **PREPARE_PENALTY (ours)** | Kicker: approach penalty mark, do not touch. Our other robots: ≥ 0.4 m behind penalty mark line. | Penalty mark: 6 m from goal centre (Div B). |
+| **PREPARE_PENALTY (theirs)** | Our goalkeeper: touch own goal line. All other our robots: ≥ 0.4 m behind the penalty mark (on our side). | Goalkeeper ID from `referee.{our_team}.goalkeeper`. |
+| **DIRECT_FREE (ours)** | One robot (kicker) approaches ball. Others position freely. After NORMAL_START the kicker may shoot directly. | Ball must move ≥ 0.05 m to be in play. |
+| **DIRECT_FREE (theirs)** | All our robots ≥ 0.5 m from ball. Full speed allowed (unlike STOP). | Same distance as STOP but no speed cap. |
+| **BALL_PLACEMENT (ours)** | One robot moves the ball to `designated_position`. Other robots clear ≥ 0.5 m from ball. | If `can_place_ball` is False we cannot place — skip to STOP-like behaviour. |
+| **BALL_PLACEMENT (theirs)** | All our robots stay ≥ 0.5 m from ball and from the `designated_position`. | Do not interfere with their placement robot. |
+
+### "Ours vs. theirs" resolution
+
+Each bilateral command (KICKOFF / PENALTY / DIRECT_FREE / BALL_PLACEMENT) comes in YELLOW and BLUE
+variants. Resolved at **tick-time** inside each dispatcher node:
+
+```python
+# In _BallPlacementDispatch.update():
+if self._is_yellow_command == self.blackboard.game.my_team_is_yellow:
+    return self._ours.update()
+else:
+    return self._theirs.update()
+```
+
+This avoids any construction-time dependency on team colour.
+
+### Using `next_command` for pre-positioning
+
+During STOP, `next_command` reveals what restart is coming before it happens.
+Example: if `next_command == DIRECT_FREE_BLUE` and we are blue, robots can already drift
+toward their free-kick positions during the STOP phase, gaining a timing advantage.
+This is an optimisation and does not affect compliance.
+
+---
+
+## 3. Architecture — Option B: Referee Priority Child (implemented)
+
+The referee override layer sits as the first (highest-priority) child of a root `Selector`
+inside every `AbstractStrategy`. This makes it:
+
+- Visible in tree renders (DOT/PNG/SVG via `render()`).
+- Automatically applied to every strategy — no per-strategy changes needed.

+the Selector falls through to the strategy tree ("game is live").
+
+### Change to `AbstractStrategy`
+
+`__init__` wraps the user's tree. Uses a lazy import to break the circular dependency:
+
+```python
+def __init__(self):
+    # Lazy import to break circular dependency:
+    # abstract_strategy → referee.tree → referee.conditions → abstract_behaviour
+    #                                                        → strategy.common.__init__ → abstract_strategy
+    from utama_core.strategy.referee.tree import build_referee_override_tree
+
+    strategy_subtree = self.create_behaviour_tree()
+    root = py_trees.composites.Selector(name="Root", memory=False)
+    root.add_children([build_referee_override_tree(), strategy_subtree])
+    self.behaviour_tree = py_trees.trees.BehaviourTree(root)

+
+## 5. Bugs Fixed During Integration
+
+### Bug 1 — `RefereeRefiner.refine` called wrong methods on `GameFrame`
+
+`refine(game, data)` was calling `game.current_frame` and `game.update_frame()` on a
+`GameFrame` object (not a `Game`). This was a pre-existing bug that never triggered because
+`RefereeMessageReceiver` was commented out.
+
+**Fix**: Rewrote to use `dataclasses.replace(game_frame, referee=data)` directly.
+
+### Bug 2 — `CurrentGameFrame` did not copy `referee` field
+
+`CurrentGameFrame.__init__` was missing:
+```python
+object.__setattr__(self, "referee", game.referee)
+```
+
+This caused `AttributeError: 'CurrentGameFrame' object has no attribute 'referee'`.
+
+### Bug 3 — Dispatcher nodes used `game.current_frame` instead of `game.my_team_is_yellow`
+
+All four dispatcher nodes (`_BallPlacementDispatch`, `_KickoffDispatch`, `_PenaltyDispatch`,
+`_DirectFreeDispatch`) used `self.blackboard.game.current_frame.my_team_is_yellow` — but
+`Game` has no `current_frame` attribute (it has `current`). Fixed to use
+`self.blackboard.game.my_team_is_yellow` directly via the `Game.my_team_is_yellow` property.
+
+---
+
+## 6. Data Flow
+
+### Real mode (AutoReferee → WSL → robot)
+
+```
+AutoReferee (224.5.23.1:10003)
+  → RefereeMessageReceiver (UDP multicast thread)
+  → ref_buffer (deque maxlen=1)
+  → strategy_runner._run_step reads ref_buffer
+  → RefereeRefiner.refine(game_frame, referee_data)
+  → game_frame.referee = RefereeData
+  → game.referee (via Game.referee property)
+  → CheckRefereeCommand reads game.referee.referee_command
+```
+
+Requires WSL `networkingMode=mirrored` in `.wslconfig` for multicast UDP to reach WSL.
+
+### RSim mode (simulation)
+
+```
+ref_buffer.append(RefereeData)  ← pushed externally (e.g. referee_sim.py)
+  → strategy_runner._run_step reads ref_buffer (when _frame_to_observations returns 3-tuple)
+  → same pipeline as above
+```
+
+### RSim / grSim with CustomReferee (ball teleport)
+
+When `custom_referee` is set and a simulator is active, `StrategyRunner` additionally
+teleports the ball on the STOP transition edge if `designated_position` is set:
+
+```
+CustomReferee.step(game_frame, t)
+  → RefereeData.designated_position = (0.0, 0.0)   (after a goal)
+  → _prev_custom_ref_command != STOP, new command == STOP
+  → sim_controller.teleport_ball(0.0, 0.0)          (RSim or grSim only)
+  → _prev_custom_ref_command = STOP
+```
+
+This fires **once** on the transition edge and is silently skipped in Real mode.
+
+---
+
+## 7. Visualisation Simulation
+
+Two scripts in `utama_core/tests/referee/` provide visual ways to verify referee behaviour in RSim.
+
+### Automated command cycling (`referee_sim.py`)
+
+```bash
+pixi run python -m utama_core.tests.referee.referee_sim
+```
+
+- Uses `WanderingStrategy` as the base (robots continuously patrol waypoints)
+- Cycles through all 11 referee commands every 5 seconds
+- The `RefereeOverride` tree intercepts each command and you can watch robots reposition
+- Command sequence starts with `NORMAL_START` so robots are visibly moving before the first override
+
+To change timing, edit `SECS_PER_COMMAND` in `referee_sim.py`.
+
+### Interactive GUI demo (`demo_referee_gui_rsim.py`)
+
+```bash
+pixi run python utama_core/tests/referee/demo_referee_gui_rsim.py
+# RSim window opens; open http://localhost:8080 in a browser
+```
+
+- Starts a `CustomReferee` (default: `simulation` profile) with `enable_gui=True`
+- `StrategyRunner` drives `referee.step()` on every tick — GUI receives live robot/ball positions
+- Uses `WanderingStrategy` so robots visibly move and you can watch the `RefereeOverride` tree interrupt them
+- Operator issues commands from the browser; the canvas shows robots repositioning in real time
+- Edit `PROFILE`, `N_ROBOTS`, `MY_TEAM_IS_YELLOW`, `MY_TEAM_IS_RIGHT` constants at the top of the file to configure
+
+---
+
+## 8. Custom Referee Web GUI (`referee_gui.py`)
+
+`referee_gui.py` (project root) is a standalone browser-based operator panel for the
+`CustomReferee`. It requires no npm, no build step, and no dependencies beyond the project's
+existing Python environment.
+
+### Starting the server
+
+```bash
+pixi run python referee_gui.py
+```
+
+Then open **http://localhost:8080** in any browser.
+
+#### CLI options
+
+| Flag | Default | Description |
+|---|---|---|
+| `--profile` | `human` | Referee profile: `human`, `simulation`, or path to a YAML file |
+| `--port` | `8080` | HTTP port to listen on |
+| `--yellow-robots` | `3` | Number of yellow robots passed to `CustomReferee` |
+| `--blue-robots` | `3` | Number of blue robots passed to `CustomReferee` |
+
+Example with a non-default profile and port:
+
+```bash
+pixi run python referee_gui.py --profile simulation --port 9090 --yellow-robots 6 --blue-robots 6
+```
+
+### Using the GUI
+
+The page is divided into four areas:
+
+**Scoreboard** — live yellow / blue scores updated in real time.
+
+**Status block** — four read-only fields:
+
+| Field | What it shows |
+|---|---|
+| Command | Current referee command, colour-coded (red = HALT, orange = STOP, green = NORMAL / FORCE START, yellow/blue = team-specific commands) |
+| Next | `next_command` — the command that will follow the current stoppage, if known |
+| Stage | Current game stage (e.g. `NORMAL FIRST HALF`) and time remaining (mm:ss) |
+| Designated | `designated_position` in metres — the ball placement target after a stoppage |
+
+**Command buttons** — clicking a button immediately calls `CustomReferee.set_command()` on the server:
+
+| Row | Buttons |
+|---|---|
+| Flow control | Halt · Stop · Normal Start · Force Start |
+| Kickoffs | Kickoff Yellow · Kickoff Blue |
+| Free kicks | Free Kick Yellow · Free Kick Blue |
+| Penalties | Penalty Yellow · Penalty Blue |
+| Ball placement | Ball Placement Yellow · Ball Placement Blue |
+
+**Profile config panel** — read-only display of the active profile loaded at startup, split into six sections:
+
+| Section | Fields shown |
+|---|---|
+| Field geometry | half length, half width, half goal width, defense length/width (half), centre circle radius — all in metres |
+| Game settings | half duration (minutes), kickoff team, force-start-after-goal flag, stop duration (seconds) |
+| Goal detection | enabled (ON/OFF), cooldown seconds |
+| Out of bounds | enabled (ON/OFF), free-kick assigner method |
+| Defense area | enabled (ON/OFF), max defenders, attacker infringement flag |
+| Keep-out zone | enabled (ON/OFF), radius (metres), violation persistence (frames) |
+
+Boolean fields are shown as green **ON** / red **OFF** pills. The panel title and browser tab title both show the profile name.
+
+A small green dot at the bottom of the page indicates the SSE connection is live. If it turns grey the browser will reconnect automatically.
+
+### Profiles
+
+Built-in profiles live in `utama_core/custom_referee/profiles/`:
+
+| Profile | Rules active | Auto-restart after goal |
+|---|---|---|
+| `human` | Goal detection only | No — operator controls the next stage |
+| `simulation` | All four rules (goal, out-of-bounds, defense area, keep-out) | Yes — progresses automatically when restart criteria are met |
+
+To customise, copy a YAML file, edit the values, and pass the path:
+
+```bash
+pixi run python referee_gui.py --profile /path/to/my_profile.yaml
+```
+
+The YAML structure mirrors the dataclasses in `profile_loader.py`:
+
+```yaml
+profile_name: "my_profile"
+geometry:
+  half_length: 4.5          # metres from centre to goal line
+  half_width: 3.0           # metres from centre to touch line
+  half_goal_width: 0.5      # metres from centre of goal to post
+  half_defense_length: 0.5  # depth of defense area from goal line
+  half_defense_width: 1.0   # half-width of defense area
+  center_circle_radius: 0.5
+rules:
+  goal_detection:
+    enabled: true
+    cooldown_seconds: 1.0   # ignore further goals for this many seconds after one is scored
+  out_of_bounds:
+    enabled: true
+    free_kick_assigner: "last_touch"  # only option currently
+  defense_area:
+    enabled: true
+    max_defenders: 1                  # robots allowed inside own defense area
+    attacker_infringement: true       # penalise attackers entering opponent defense area
+  keep_out:
+    enabled: true
+    radius_meters: 0.5                # exclusion radius around ball during stoppages
+    violation_persistence_frames: 30  # frames a robot must stay clear before violation clears
+game:
+  half_duration_seconds: 300.0
+  kickoff_team: "yellow"
+  force_start_after_goal: false  # true = auto FORCE START; false = wait for operator
+  stop_duration_seconds: 3.0    # STOP hold time before auto FORCE START (if enabled)
+```
+
+### Architecture
+
+```
+referee_gui.py
+│
+├── _tick_loop (daemon thread, ~30 Hz)
+│   └── CustomReferee.step() → stores latest RefereeData, broadcasts to SSE clients
+│
+├── GET /         → serves inline HTML + CSS + JS (no external resources)
+├── GET /config   → returns profile config as JSON (fetched once on page load)
+├── GET /events   → SSE stream; browser EventSource reconnects automatically
+└── POST /command → JSON body {"command": "HALT"}, calls set_command(), returns 204
+```
+
+The server uses only `http.server.BaseHTTPRequestHandler` (stdlib). The browser page has no
+framework dependency — state updates arrive via `EventSource`, config is fetched once with
+`fetch('/config')`, and buttons call `fetch('/command')`.
+
+### Typical operator workflow
+
+1. Start the GUI with the desired profile.
+2. The referee starts in **HALT**. Click **Stop** to begin a pre-match pause.
+3. Click **Kickoff Yellow** (or Blue) to issue `PREPARE_KICKOFF_*`.
+4. Click **Normal Start** to begin play — the stage timer starts counting down.
+5. Use **Halt** / **Stop** between incidents; issue free kicks or penalties as needed.
+6. The stage advances automatically (e.g. `NORMAL_FIRST_HALF` → `NORMAL_HALF_TIME`) according to the profile's `half_duration_seconds`.
+
+### Button reference
+
+| Button | Command issued | When to press | What robots do |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| **Halt** | `HALT` | Emergency stop; any unsafe situation | Immediately zero velocity — no movement |
+| **Stop** | `STOP` | Pause between incidents; pre-match | Slow to ≤1.5 m/s, stay ≥0.5 m from ball |
+| **Normal Start** | `NORMAL_START` | After kickoff / free kick robots are in position | Game live — strategy tree takes over |
+| **Force Start** | `FORCE_START` | Double-touch infringement; stalled play | Game live — ball at current position, no placement |
+| **Kickoff Yellow** | `PREPARE_KICKOFF_YELLOW` | Half-start or after Blue scores | Yellow kicker approaches centre; others to own half |
+| **Kickoff Blue** | `PREPARE_KICKOFF_BLUE` | After Yellow scores | Blue kicker approaches centre; others to own half |
+| **Free Kick Yellow** | `DIRECT_FREE_YELLOW` | Foul by Blue | Yellow kicker near ball; Blue ≥0.5 m away |
+| **Free Kick Blue** | `DIRECT_FREE_BLUE` | Foul by Yellow | Blue kicker near ball; Yellow ≥0.5 m away |
+| **Penalty Yellow** *(adv)* | `PREPARE_PENALTY_YELLOW` | Usually auto-detected; manual override only | Yellow kicker at penalty mark; others behind line |
+| **Penalty Blue** *(adv)* | `PREPARE_PENALTY_BLUE` | Usually auto-detected; manual override only | Blue kicker at penalty mark; others behind line |
+| **Ball Placement Yellow** *(adv)* | `BALL_PLACEMENT_YELLOW` | Manual placement command | Yellow robot moves ball to `designated_position` |
+| **Ball Placement Blue** *(adv)* | `BALL_PLACEMENT_BLUE` | Manual placement command | Blue robot moves ball to `designated_position` |
+
+#### Auto-detected vs manual
+
+| Command category | Detection | Notes |
+|---|---|---|
+| Goal → kickoff | Auto (GoalRule) | Operator sets kickoff team before half starts |
+| Out-of-bounds → free kick | Auto (OutOfBoundsRule) | `free_kick_assigner` in profile controls which team |
+| Defense area → penalty | Auto (DefenseAreaRule, if enabled) | Penalty buttons are in **Advanced** row; hidden by default |
+| Ball placement | Auto (OutOfBoundsRule, if enabled) | Manual override via Advanced row if auto fails |
+
+#### Typical sequences
+
+Standard half start:
+```
+Halt → Stop → Kickoff Yellow → Normal Start
+```
+
+After goal (human profile — auto-restart):
+```
+(Goal auto-detected) → Stop → (auto Force Start after stop_duration_seconds)
+```
+
+Manual free kick:
+```
+Halt  →  Stop  →  Free Kick Yellow  →  Normal Start
+```
+
+### Live field visualisation
+
+The **Field** panel shows a top-down canvas updated in real time at ~30 Hz via SSE.
+
+| Element | Colour | Notes |
+|---|---|---|
+| Field background | Green | Scaled to profile geometry |
+| Lines / circles | White | Boundary, centre line, centre circle, defence areas |
+| Left goal | Yellow (translucent) | Yellow team's goal (negative x side) |
+| Right goal | Blue (translucent) | Blue team's goal (positive x side) |
+| Friendly robots | Yellow filled circle | ID label above; orientation line shows heading |
+| Enemy robots | Blue filled circle | ID label above; orientation line shows heading |
+| Ball | Orange filled circle | Minimum 4 px radius |
+| Designated × | White cross | Ball placement target; hidden when `designated_position` is null |
+
+> **Standalone mode**: the canvas shows an empty green field with the ball at (0, 0) because
+> `_make_static_frame()` creates a frame with no robots.  Robots appear when driven by
+> `demo_referee_gui_rsim.py` or another live game loop.
+
+### Event log
+
+The **Event Log** panel shows the 20 most recent events, newest first.
+
+| Entry type | Colour | Trigger |
+|---|---|---|
+| Command change | Green | `d.command` differs from previous message |
+| Score change | Yellow | `d.yellow_score` or `d.blue_score` differs from previous message |
+| Status message | Grey (muted) | `d.status_message` is non-empty and differs from previous value |
+
+---
+
+## 9. Open Questions / Future Work
+
+- **Active distance-keeping during STOP/free kicks**: Currently we stop in place.
+  A better implementation moves robots away from the ball if they are within 0.5 m.
+
+- **Ball placement precision**: `BallPlacementOursStep` uses `move()` which will stop the ball
+  near (not exactly at) `designated_position`. The tolerance is ±0.15 m per the rules.
+  Future work: dribble to position then release.
+
+- **Kicker selection**: Currently lowest robot ID. Should prefer the robot closest to ball.
+
+- **Using `next_command` for pre-positioning**: A future optimisation reads `next_command`
+  during STOP and begins drifting to the correct position before the command changes.
+
+- **`can_place_ball` fallback**: If `TeamInfo.can_place_ball` is False (too many placement
+  failures), `BallPlacementOursStep` must fall back to STOP behaviour.
+
+- **Active ball-distance enforcement during DIRECT_FREE (theirs)**: Currently stops in place.
+  Should actively move away if within 0.5 m of ball.

+"""demo_referee_gui_rsim.py — CustomReferee + web GUI + StrategyRunner (RSim).
+
+Run:
+    pixi run python utama_core/tests/referee/demo_referee_gui_rsim.py
+    # RSim window opens; open http://localhost:8080 in a browser
+
+What it does:
+  - Creates a CustomReferee (human profile) with enable_gui=True so the
+    browser panel starts automatically.
+  - Passes the referee to StrategyRunner via custom_referee=.  StrategyRunner
+    calls referee.step() on every tick and handles ball teleports on STOP
+    automatically — no patching required.
+  - WanderingStrategy is used as the base strategy so robots visibly move and
+    you can watch the RefereeOverride tree interrupt them when you issue
+    commands from the GUI (Halt, Kickoff Yellow, etc.).
+
+Operator workflow:
+  1. Open http://localhost:8080 in a browser.
+  2. Robots start moving under WanderingStrategy.
+  3. Click any command button (Halt, Stop, Kickoff Yellow…) — robots reposition.
+  4. Click Normal Start to resume free play.
+  5. With the human profile, the referee stays in STOP after a goal until the operator advances play.

-The `GameStateMachine` owns all mutable state: command, score, stage, and next command. It does **not** auto-advance from `STOP` to `NORMAL_START` — that transition is always explicit (operator input or a fixed-delay script). This keeps control predictable.
+The `GameStateMachine` owns all mutable state: command, score, stage, and next command. In the `simulation` profile it can auto-advance from `STOP` into the queued restart command once robots have cleared the ball, then continue through restart-specific readiness checks. In the `human` profile those auto-advances are disabled so an operator stays in control.

-> **Key design principle:** `CustomReferee` only ever *moves into* `STOP` automatically. All transitions *out of* `STOP` require an explicit `set_command()` call. This matches how a human operator interacts with a real game controller.  
-> More thoughts on this, in RL loop / automated testing, we do want the referee system to resume the game after our system is ready, e.g. putting ball at designated location and ready to start.
+> **Key design principle:** profile choice controls restart ownership. `simulation` auto-progresses through queued restarts when readiness checks are satisfied; `human` keeps those transitions manual for operator control.

 ### What it does
 
 - Creates a `CustomReferee` with `enable_gui=True`, which starts an HTTP server on a background daemon thread.
-- Passes the referee to `StrategyRunner` via `custom_referee=`. `StrategyRunner` calls `referee.step()` on every tick and handles ball teleports on `STOP` automatically.
+- Passes the referee to `StrategyRunner` via `custom_referee=` with `referee_system="custom"`. `StrategyRunner` calls `referee.step()` on every tick and handles ball teleports on `STOP` automatically.
 - Uses `WanderingStrategy` so robots visibly move; the `RefereeOverride` behaviour tree interrupts them when you issue commands from the GUI.

+"""Referee behaviour integration tests using rsim + CustomReferee.
+
+Each test:
+  1. Starts a full rsim session with a CustomReferee (simulation profile).
+  2. Sets up a scenario via reset_field (ball position + velocity, robots placed).
+  3. Waits for the referee to detect a violation and issue a command.
+  4. Verifies that the robots respond correctly via eval_status.
+
+Scenarios covered:
+  - BALL_PLACEMENT_YELLOW issued directly → closest robot drives to designated target.
+  - Ball exits side boundary → DIRECT_FREE_YELLOW issued → kicker drives to ball.
+  - Ball exits side boundary, robot near ball → DIRECT_FREE_BLUE issued → robots clear keep-out zone.
+  - PREPARE_KICKOFF issued → robots reach own-half positions outside centre circle.
+
+Note on initial commands:
+  Out-of-bounds and goal rules only fire during NORMAL_START / FORCE_START, so the
+  manager issues FORCE_START in reset_field to put the game into active play before
+  the ball exits.  The kickoff test issues PREPARE_KICKOFF_YELLOW directly.
+
+Note on last-touch tracking:
+  DIRECT_FREE_YELLOW (our free kick) is issued when the enemy last touched the ball.
+  DIRECT_FREE_BLUE (their free kick) is issued when we last touched the ball.
+  We control which fires by positioning a friendly robot next to the ball before
+  it exits (triggers friendly last-touch → DIRECT_FREE_BLUE, their kick).
+  With no robot near the ball, last-touch defaults to DIRECT_FREE_YELLOW (ours).

  BALL_PLACEMENT so the robot must physically carry the ball

+  end-to-end.  Additionally, `OutOfBoundsRule` currently issues `STOP → DIRECT_FREE` directly
+  (no automatic ball placement step), so `BALL_PLACEMENT` must be injected manually via

   (no automatic ball placement step), so `BALL_PLACEMENT` must be injected manually via
   `set_command()` for this scenario.
+
+- **Ball placement before free kick (SSL rule compliance)**: Per the official SSL rulebook,
+  after a ball-out-of-bounds event the correct sequence is `STOP → BALL_PLACEMENT_* →
+  DIRECT_FREE_* → NORMAL_START`, not `STOP → DIRECT_FREE_*` as `OutOfBoundsRule` currently
+  produces.  `OutOfBoundsRule` should be updated to set `suggested_command=STOP` and
+  `next_command=BALL_PLACEMENT_*` (with `designated_position` set to the infield restart
+  spot), so the state machine progresses through ball placement before issuing the free kick.
+  This requires `BallPlacementOursStep` to be working reliably first (see item above).
+
+- **`BallPlacementOursStep` robot carry mechanics**: The current single-robot dribble
+  approach does not work reliably — the robot pushes the ball rather than carrying it.
+  Investigation needed.  Most competitive SSL teams use a two-robot "kissing" technique:
+  one robot pushes from behind while a second robot lightly contacts the ball from the
+  front to stabilise it, allowing the pair to transport it as a unit.  Alternatively,
+  a single-robot approach with a dedicated "get-behind-ball" skill (slower final approach,
+  approach vector aligned from behind relative to the target) may also be viable and is
+  worth evaluating first before adding multi-robot coordination complexity.
+
+- **GUI: suggested next action for human operators**: The current operator panel presents
+  all available command buttons simultaneously, which is overwhelming for operators who
+  are unfamiliar with SSL rules.  A future improvement would display a highlighted
+  "suggested next step" banner or button based on the current referee command — for
+  example, after a goal the suggestion would be "Kickoff [team]", after `PREPARE_KICKOFF`
+  it would be "Normal Start (when robots are in position)".  This shifts the operator's
+  job from deciding *what* to do next to simply deciding *when* it is safe to advance,
+  reducing cognitive load and operator error during matches.

Subject: [PATCH 019/142] Fix three bugs identified in Copilot review

- Delete dead RefereeStateMachine (never wired up, duplicated GameStateMachine
  with a broken _replace() call on a mutable class)
- Remove dead len(obs)==4 branch in _run_step; RSim always reads from ref_buffer
- Snapshot TeamInfo via copy.copy() in _generate_referee_data() to prevent
  score mutations retroactively corrupting stored RefereeRefiner records
- Update docs and stale docstrings accordingly
- Document TeamInfo frozen dataclass refactor as deferred follow-up work

+
+## 8. `TeamInfo` should be a frozen dataclass
+
+**File:** `utama_core/entities/game/team_info.py`
+
+**Current behaviour:**
+`TeamInfo` is a mutable class. `GameStateMachine._generate_referee_data()` passes `self.blue_team` / `self.yellow_team` directly into `RefereeData`. `RefereeRefiner` stores these `RefereeData` objects in `_referee_records`. Because all stored records reference the same `TeamInfo` objects, a subsequent `increment_score()` call mutates the score retroactively across all historical records — which can cause `RefereeData.__eq__` to falsely consider a new record equal to the previous one, silently dropping it from `_referee_records`.
+
+**Workaround (applied 2026-04-07):** `_generate_referee_data()` now calls `copy.copy(self.blue_team)` / `copy.copy(self.yellow_team)` to snapshot team state at the time of record creation. This fixes the aliasing issue for the `CustomReferee` path without touching `TeamInfo` or the network referee path.
+
+**Long-term fix:** Convert `TeamInfo` to `@dataclass(frozen=True)`. Replace all in-place mutations (`increment_score()`, `parse_referee_packet()`, etc.) with `dataclasses.replace()` calls. This eliminates the aliasing hazard at the type level across the whole codebase, and gives `TeamInfo` a correct `__eq__` for free. The network referee path (`RefereeMessageReceiver` → `parse_referee_packet()`) will need updating too.
+
+**Why deferred:** The refactor touches the network referee path which is out of scope for the referee integration PR.

Subject: [PATCH 021/142] Address second round of Copilot review comments
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

- Fix CustomReferee.step() to reset rules only on actual command transition,
  not when the state machine ignores the violation due to the cooldown
- Remove dead STOP branch and unused my_team_is_yellow param from KeepOutRule
- Add last_status_message and last_next_command properties to RefereeRefiner;
  remove direct _referee_records[-1] access from StrategyRunner
- Fix designated_position type annotation: Tuple[float] → Tuple[float, float]
- Import BALL_KEEP_OUT_DISTANCE from referee_constants in test file instead
  of duplicating the literal

Subject: [PATCH 023/142] fix: stage_time_left now updates every frame in
 RefereeRefiner

RefereeData.__eq__ excludes stage_time_left to avoid spurious
re-records, so the deduplication in add_new_referee_data() was
discarding every frame's updated countdown. The stage_time_left
property was reading from the stale cached record, causing the
terminal display to freeze (e.g. always showing 4:59).

Fix: track _latest_stage_time_left independently in refine(),
updated on every call before the dedup check, and return it
from the stage_time_left property.

Subject: [PATCH 024/142] fix: increase BALL_KEEP_OUT_DISTANCE to 0.8 m to
 prevent restart violation loop

Action nodes were parking robots at 0.55 m from the ball while the
KeepOutRule fires at < 0.5 m. A small ball nudge during restart would
put defending robots inside the rule threshold, triggering another STOP
and looping indefinitely. Increasing the action node clearance to 0.8 m
gives enough buffer to absorb positioning inaccuracy.

Subject: [PATCH 025/142] fix: adapt referee code to FieldDimensions API and
 arbitrary field sizes
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

- Replace from_field_bounds with from_field_dims in RefereeGeometry so
  goal/defense dimensions scale with the actual field, not hardcoded to
  STANDARD_FIELD_DIMS
- Fix Vector3D→Vector2D conversions in actions.py for fpp controller
  compatibility (DirectFreeOursStep, BallPlacementOursStep)
- Rename get_min_bounding_zone→get_min_bounding_req in point_cycle_strategy
  and wandering_strategy to match abstract base class
- Update test fixtures to use new Field(field_dims=...) constructor and
  correct BALL_KEEP_OUT_DISTANCE (0.8 m)

Subject: [PATCH 026/142] fix: use own-half fallback direction when robot is
 coincident with ball

_project_outside_circle was using a hardcoded (1, 0) fallback when a
robot sits exactly on the obstruction center (dist == 0), pushing it to
positive-x regardless of which half the team defends. Now _clear_to_legal_
positions passes an own-half-aware fallback so coincident robots are always
cleared toward their correct side.

Also fix test_all_robots_placed_on_own_half_* to track final target per
robot (dict keyed by robot_id) rather than a flat list, so the count
assertion is robust against the clearing pass re-issuing a move command.

Subject: [PATCH 027/142] feat: make StrategyRunner the single source of truth
 for referee geometry

Add CustomReferee.override_geometry() to replace geometry on both the
referee and its internal state machine. StrategyRunner now calls this
immediately after resolving field_bounds, so the custom referee always
uses the actual full_field_dims + field_bounds rather than the standard-
field values baked into the YAML profile.

The YAML geometry block is preserved as a fallback for standalone
CustomReferee use outside of StrategyRunner.

Subject: [PATCH 028/142] refactor: remove
 RefereeGeometry.from_standard_div_b()

from_field_dims(STANDARD_FIELD_DIMS) is the direct equivalent and makes
the standard-field case no more special than any other. Update the test
fixture accordingly.

Subject: [PATCH 030/142] fix: remove dead CLEARANCE_FALLBACK_DIRECTION and fix
 _clear_to_legal_positions
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Three issues addressed:

1. Remove CLEARANCE_FALLBACK_DIRECTION from referee_constants — it was the
   default parameter of _project_outside_circle but no caller used the
   default; the fallback is now always passed explicitly.

2. _clear_to_legal_positions now accepts an optional intended_targets dict.
   When provided, clearance starts from the intended formation target rather
   than robot.p, so the clearing pass refines rather than discards the
   formation intent. PrepareKickoffTheirsStep now passes intended_targets
   instead of pre-issuing move commands and relying on overwrite.

3. Use own-half direction as the coincidence fallback for both ball and
   designated-position clearance — consistent with the invariant that
   friendly robots belong on their own half during all restart states.

Subject: [PATCH 031/142] fix: exclude PREPARE_KICKOFF/PENALTY from keep-out
 rule to prevent sequence resets
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

During PREPARE_KICKOFF_* and PREPARE_PENALTY_*, robots are actively moving
to their formation positions. The keep-out rule was firing after 30 frames
of encroachment and resetting the sequence to STOP → DIRECT_FREE, causing
a violation loop.

These states are now excluded from _STOPPAGE_COMMANDS — the state machine
already gates progression via _kicker_in_centre_circle and
_penalty_kicker_ready, so keep-out violations here are spurious. The rule
remains active for DIRECT_FREE_* where defending robots must genuinely stay
clear while the free kick is set up.

Subject: [PATCH 033/142] fix: clear encroaching robots from current position,
 not formation target

If a robot is currently inside a keep-out zone, sending it toward a
distant formation target makes it traverse the exclusion zone for multiple
frames, triggering the keep-out violation counter. Instead, when a robot
is encroaching, project it out from its current position immediately.
Only use the intended formation target when the robot is already clear of
all exclusion zones.

This prevents keep-out rule violations during PREPARE_KICKOFF without
modifying the referee state machine.

Subject: [PATCH 034/142] fix: use BALL_KEEP_OUT_DISTANCE in
 _ensure_outside_center_circle

The function previously used a hardcoded 0.5 m (centre-circle radius),
meaning formation positions could be placed at exactly 0.5 m from the
ball. _clear_to_legal_positions would then push them out to 0.8 m, but
the robot still had to travel through the keep-out zone to reach its
target, accumulating violation frames.

Using BALL_KEEP_OUT_DISTANCE (0.8 m) ensures formation positions are
always placed at or beyond our enforced clearance distance, so robots
never need to traverse the keep-out zone to reach their assigned position.

Subject: [PATCH 037/142] fix: keep RefereeRefiner properties current when
 deduplication skips a record

Properties like last_command, blue_team, status_message, etc. were all
reading from _referee_records[-1], which is not updated when the new
RefereeData compares equal (e.g. only status_message or time_sent changes).
This could leave live properties stale between meaningful state changes.

Add _latest_referee_data, updated unconditionally on every refine() call
(alongside the existing _latest_stage_time_left), and point all live
properties at it. _referee_records still grows only on meaningful state
changes, preserving its role as a deduplicated history.

Subject: [PATCH 038/142] =?UTF-8?q?docs:=20rename=20half=5Fdefense=5Flengt?=
 =?UTF-8?q?h=20=E2=86=92=20half=5Fdefense=5Fdepth=20in=20all=20docs?=
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The field was renamed in code (RefereeGeometry, YAML profiles) but three
doc files still used the old name in YAML examples and the field table.
Updated docs/custom_referee.md, docs/referee_integration.md, and
docs/custom_referee_gui.md to match the actual API.

Subject: [PATCH 041/142] fix(defense): make keeper and defender geometry
 radius-aware

Share shadow-geometry helpers between goalkeeping and defender positioning.
Use keeper-line and post limits adjusted for robot radius, account for ball and
robot radius in defender shadows, and dynamically choose the single defender's
coverage side.

Update goalkeep and defend_parameter tests for standard and custom field geometry.

Subject: [PATCH 042/142] Fix graceful SIGINT shutdown under pixi

Use setsid for pixi main tasks so Ctrl+C is not delivered twice to the Python child. Update StrategyRunner SIGINT handling so the first interrupt requests graceful shutdown, stops the Rich FPS display, and lets cleanup send stop commands; a later interrupt still force-quits.

Add regression coverage for SIGINT behavior and REAL-mode zero-velocity stop commands during shutdown.

Subject: [PATCH 046/142] fix: use game.ts as referee timebase instead of wall
 clock

GameStateMachine.stage_start_time is now seeded lazily from the first
current_time passed to step(), so the timebase matches the caller's
clock. StrategyRunner now passes game_frame.ts instead of time.time(),
making referee cooldowns and stage durations operate in sim-time for
RSIM (which starts near 0) rather than wall-clock time.

Subject: [PATCH 047/142] fix(#107): suppress Kalman ghost tracking during
 robot substitution

GameStateMachine now sets bot_substitution_allowed=False by default
and flips it to True only when the stage transitions to a halftime/break
stage (where SSL rules permit substitution). PositionRefiner reads this
flag from game_frame.referee and skips adding None vanishing entries for
robots that disappear during an open substitution window, preventing the
Kalman filter from ghost-predicting their positions.

Subject: [PATCH 049/142] fix: address Copilot review issues in main.py and
 referee tree dispatchers

- Move CustomReferee construction inside main() to eliminate import-time side effects
- Store _is_opp_strat on AbstractBehaviour so setup_() can propagate it to inner nodes
- Fix dispatcher setup_() calls in tree.py to forward is_opp_strat instead of hardcoding False

Subject: [PATCH 050/142] fix: make DefenseAreaRule color-aware for symmetric
 enforcement

Previously the rule only checked the "friendly" team's defense area, missing
violations in the opponent's box. Now derives yellow/blue sides from
my_team_is_right XOR my_team_is_yellow and checks both areas in one pass.

Also fix two stale doc issues:
- Remove STOP from KeepOutRule active-commands table (it was always excluded)
- Update design-decisions section 4 to reflect that reset() is already called
  on command transitions

-## 4. `KeepOutRule` violation count carries over between command changes
+## 4. ✅ `KeepOutRule` violation count resets on command change — resolved
 
-**File:** `utama_core/custom_referee/rules/keep_out_rule.py`
-
-**Current behaviour:**
-`_violation_count` accumulates across command changes (e.g., transitions from
-`DIRECT_FREE_YELLOW` to `PREPARE_KICKOFF_BLUE`). If a robot was encroaching for 20 frames
-under one command and the command changes, it only needs 10 more frames under the new command
-to trigger a violation.
-
-**Risk level:** Low — the transition cooldown (`_TRANSITION_COOLDOWN = 0.3 s`) means the
-command change and any new violation are unlikely to overlap. Also, robot positions are
-usually compliant after a command transition.
-
-**Options:**
-- **A (current, keep):** Accept the minor inconsistency. The persistence threshold (30 frames)
-  is large enough to make false positives very unlikely.
-- **B (reset on command change):** Track the previous command and reset `_violation_count`
-  whenever `current_command` changes. Clean, low cost.
-
-**Recommendation:** Option B is a one-liner fix with no downside.
+**Resolution:** `CustomReferee.step()` calls `rule.reset()` on every command transition,
+which clears `_violation_count`. No carry-over occurs.

Subject: [PATCH 051/142] fix: cache last RefereeData so GameFrame.referee
 stays populated between packets

When using referee_system='official', the GC sends packets at ~10 Hz while
the main loop runs at 60 Hz. popleft() returned None on most ticks, causing
GameFrame.referee to drop out intermittently and disabling the referee layer.

Now the last successfully received RefereeData is cached and reused on ticks
where the buffer is empty. The RSIM/custom path is unaffected (data is always
produced on the same tick it is consumed).

Subject: [PATCH 052/142] fix: address Copilot review issues in referee tree
 dispatchers and penalty docstrings

Remove redundant child.blackboard assignments in all dispatcher update() methods
since each child already attaches to the same global blackboard namespace during setup().
Clarify penalty positioning docstrings to reflect current behaviour and flag them
as the place for strategy team tuning.

Subject: [PATCH 053/142] fix: prevent keep-out violations and defense-area
 infinite loop

- PrepareKickoffOursStep: route support robots through
  _clear_to_legal_positions with intended_targets so their paths
  never cross the 0.5m keep-out circle, even when starting on the
  enemy half after a STOP clearance. Kicker approaches from own-half
  side offset (ROBOT_RADIUS + 0.03m) instead of exactly (0,0).

- StopStep: add own-defense-area eviction so excess defenders are
  pushed outside the front edge during STOP. Prevents the infinite
  loop where two robots sit in their own area, STOP ends, the
  DefenseAreaRule fires immediately, STOP restarts, and no robot
  ever moves out.

  New helpers in actions.py:
    _is_in_own_defense_area(game, x, y)
    _own_defense_area_exit_x(game)
  New params on _clear_to_legal_positions:
    clear_own_defense_area: bool = False
    max_own_defenders: int = 1

- formations.py: add START_2V2 formation for 2v2 exhibition matches.

Subject: [PATCH 054/142] fix: seed _prepare_entered_time in set_command() for
 direct PREPARE_* commands

When set_command() is called with a PREPARE_KICKOFF_* or PREPARE_PENALTY_*
command while already in STOP/HALT (bypassing the insert-STOP branch),
_prepare_entered_time was never updated from -inf, causing the auto-advance
prepare-duration check to fire immediately. Seed it (and _stop_entered_time
for STOP/HALT) in the fallthrough path so the delay is always respected.

Subject: [PATCH 055/142] refactor: replace referee_system+custom_referee args
 with typed RefereeSource union
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Replaces the two coupled StrategyRunner arguments (`referee_system: str` and
`custom_referee: CustomReferee`) with a single `referee: RefereeSource` parameter
that accepts `None`, `OfficialReferee()`, or a `CustomReferee` instance — a proper
discriminated union with no string magic.

Also fixes referee clock initialisation: StrategyRunner now calls
`CustomReferee.seed_clock()` after `_load_game()` so all internal timers are
anchored to the first real `game_frame.ts` rather than a hardcoded 0.0.  This
makes the referee work correctly when reusing a long-running grsim instance
(wall-clock ts) or rsim (sim-time ts).  The initial command is automatically
chosen by mode — FORCE_START for rsim/grsim, HALT for real — so developers no
longer need to call `set_command()` at startup.

Subject: [PATCH 056/142] feat: add center_circle_radius to FieldDimensions

Moves the hardcoded 0.5 m center circle radius out of RefereeGeometry and
into FieldDimensions, the single source of truth for all field measurements.
RefereeGeometry.from_field_dims() now reads it from the field dims instead
of hardcoding it.  GREAT_EXHIBITION_FIELD_DIMS uses 0.3 m to reflect its
smaller scale.

Subject: [PATCH 057/142] refactor: replace hardcoded geometry fallbacks with
 STANDARD_FIELD_DIMS references

profile_loader.py: default geometry values in _parse_profile() now read from
STANDARD_FIELD_DIMS instead of bare magic numbers, so they stay consistent
if standard field constants ever change.

state_machine.py: the 4.5 m half_length fallback in _penalty_kicker_ready()
replaced with STANDARD_FIELD_DIMS.full_field_half_length for the same reason.

Subject: [PATCH 058/142] refactor: remove dead initial_command and
 initial_time params from GameStateMachine

Both were made obsolete by seed_clock(), which is now the single place where
the initial command and clock are applied after the first real game frame is
available.  The constructor always starts in HALT with stage_start_time=None.

Subject: [PATCH 061/142] fix: snapshot TeamInfo per packet to prevent
 retroactive history mutation
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

RefereeMessageReceiver was passing the same mutable blue_info/yellow_info
instances into every RefereeData record, so a score or goalkeeper update
would silently mutate all previously recorded referee states. Added
TeamInfo.snapshot() and call it in the receiver so each RefereeData owns
independent TeamInfo values — consistent with how GameStateMachine already
used copy.copy() on its own team instances.

Also fixes the Optional[tuple[float]] → Optional[tuple[float, float]]
type annotation on RefereeRefiner.designated_position.

Subject: [PATCH 064/142] refactor: make StrategyRunner.full_field_dims the
 single source of field geometry

- Remove geometry block from RefereeProfile, profile_loader.py, and
  built-in YAML profiles (human, simulation); CustomReferee now
  initialises _geometry from STANDARD_FIELD_DIMS as a placeholder
- StrategyRunner calls override_geometry() at startup so the referee
  always uses full_field_dims (or its field_bounds projection)
- For gRSim/Real, VisionReceiver fires a one-shot on_geometry callback
  that validates the vision geometry packet against full_field_dims and
  raises RuntimeError on mismatch
- GUI /config endpoint reads referee.geometry live so it reflects the
  overridden geometry, not stale profile values
- Update docs to document the geometry authority chain

+`StrategyRunner` accepts an optional `referee` parameter. Pass a `CustomReferee` instance to use the in-process referee. When set:
 
 1. `RefereeMessageReceiver` is **not** started (no UDP multicast thread).
 2. Each tick, `CustomReferee.step()` is called with `self.my_current_game_frame` and the result is pushed into `ref_buffer` before `_step_game()` reads it.
 3. On the **transition edge** into `STOP` (i.e. the first frame the command becomes `STOP`), if `RefereeData.designated_position` is not `None` and a `sim_controller` is present, the ball is teleported to `designated_position` in the simulator. After a goal this is always `(0.0, 0.0)` — the centre spot.
 
+### Field geometry and `full_field_dims`
+
+`StrategyRunner` overrides the referee's geometry at startup using `full_field_dims` and `field_bounds` — the YAML profile geometry is irrelevant when running through `StrategyRunner`. This ensures the referee always enforces the same field the simulator is actually running.
+
+For **gRSim and Real** modes, `StrategyRunner` also validates the first vision geometry packet against `full_field_dims` and raises `RuntimeError` immediately if they don't match, preventing silent mismatches between configured and actual field size.

+"""demo_exhibition_road.py — Exhibition Road Festival demo.
+
+Run:
+    pixi run python demo_exhibition_road.py
+    # RSim window opens; open http://localhost:8080 in a browser
+
+What it does:
+  - Uses GREAT_EXHIBITION_FIELD_DIMS (4 m × 3 m) — the compact field sized
+    for the Exhibition Road festival venue.
+  - Builds a custom RefereeProfile inline (same style as Utama-Strategy/main.py)
+    with all rules enabled and human-operator auto-advance settings so a
+    festival steward can control the game from the browser GUI.
+  - 2v2 format: two yellow robots vs two blue robots, matching the small field.
+  - Strategy_2v2 from Utama-Strategy is used for both sides so the robots
+    play a proper pass-and-shoot game rather than just wandering.
+  - enable_gui=True starts the browser panel at http://localhost:8080 so the
+    crowd can watch the referee state in real time.
+
+Operator workflow:
+  1. Open http://localhost:8080 in a browser.
+  2. Robots begin under FORCE_START (rsim auto-seed).
+  3. Click Halt / Stop / Kickoff Yellow… to intervene.
+  4. Click Normal Start to resume.
+  5. Goals are detected automatically; the referee waits for the operator to
+     advance play (human auto-advance profile).

 - Creates a `CustomReferee` with `enable_gui=True`, which starts an HTTP server on a background daemon thread.
-- Passes the referee to `StrategyRunner` via `custom_referee=` with `referee_system="custom"`. `StrategyRunner` calls `referee.step()` on every tick and handles ball teleports on `STOP` automatically.
+- Passes the referee to `StrategyRunner` via `referee=`. `StrategyRunner` calls `referee.step()` on every tick and handles ball teleports on `STOP` automatically.

-`referee_gui.py` (project root) is a standalone browser-based operator panel for the
-`CustomReferee`. It requires no npm, no build step, and no dependencies beyond the project's
-existing Python environment.
+The browser-based operator panel is started by passing `enable_gui=True` to `CustomReferee` and then running one of the demo scripts. There is no standalone `referee_gui.py` — the GUI is embedded inside `CustomReferee` itself.
 
-### Starting the server
+### Starting the GUI
+
+Use the provided demo script:
 
 ```bash
-pixi run python referee_gui.py
+pixi run python demo_referee_gui_rsim.py
+# RSim window opens; open http://localhost:8080 in a browser
 ```
 
-Then open **http://localhost:8080** in any browser.
-
-#### CLI options
+The demo creates `CustomReferee(enable_gui=True, ...)` and passes it to `StrategyRunner` via the `referee=` argument. To change the profile, port, or robot counts, edit the module-level constants at the top of `demo_referee_gui_rsim.py`:
 
-| Flag | Default | Description |
+| Constant | Default | Description |
 |---|---|---|
-| `--profile` | `human` | Referee profile: `human`, `simulation`, or path to a YAML file |
-| `--port` | `8080` | HTTP port to listen on |
-| `--yellow-robots` | `3` | Number of yellow robots passed to `CustomReferee` |
-| `--blue-robots` | `3` | Number of blue robots passed to `CustomReferee` |
-
-Example with a non-default profile and port:
-
-```bash
-pixi run python referee_gui.py --profile simulation --port 9090 --yellow-robots 6 --blue-robots 6
-```
+| `PROFILE` | `"human"` | Profile name or path to a YAML file passed to `load_profile()` |
+| `PORT` | `8080` | HTTP port the GUI server listens on |
+| `N_ROBOTS` | `3` | Number of robots per team |
+| `MY_TEAM_IS_YELLOW` | `True` | Which team is ours |

Subject: [PATCH 107/142] feat: per-robot IR sensor trust list with
 vision-proximity fallback
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Add yellow_trusted_ir_robots / blue_trusted_ir_robots params to
StrategyRunner (colour-keyed, matching vision_to_cmd_mapping convention).
Robots not in the trusted set have has_ball inferred from vision proximity
(~0.13 m) instead of the IR sensor — handles broken sensors without
disabling IR globally.

Default None trusts all sensors (backwards-compatible). Remove the args
once sensors are stable hardware-wide.

Subject: [PATCH 108/142] feat: leaky-bucket dribbler thermal limiter in
 RealRobotController
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Prevents the dribbler motor from overheating by capping continuous use at
30 s. The bucket fills 1 step/step while dribbling and drains at the same
rate while off — so 20 s on + 10 s off leaves 10 s on the clock, matching
real thermal recovery behaviour. Dribbler is forced off and a warning is
emitted when the bucket is full; it resumes automatically once drained.

Sim controllers are unaffected. Limit defined by DRIBBLER_MAX_ON_STEPS.

Subject: [PATCH 109/142] refactor: switch dribbler thermal limiter from steps
 to wall-clock seconds

Uses time.monotonic() so the 30s budget is real elapsed time regardless
of control-loop frequency. Replaces DRIBBLER_MAX_ON_STEPS with
DRIBBLER_MAX_ON_SECONDS = 30.0 and _dribbler_steps with _dribbler_seconds
+ _dribbler_last_tick per robot.

Subject: [PATCH 110/142] fix: warning spam, hysteresis, and heat telemetry for
 dribbler limiter
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

- Warn only once per limit event (not every tick) using _dribbler_limit_warned
- Add hysteresis: once throttled, dribbler stays off until bucket drains to
  DRIBBLER_RESUME_SECONDS (15s = 50%) — prevents 1s-on/1s-off oscillation
  at the limit boundary
- Bucket continues draining even while strategy requests dribble (throttled)
- telop_gui: add heat: XX% label per robot, colour-coded muted→amber→red
  at 0-50% / 50-80% / 80-100% bucket fill

Subject: [PATCH 111/142] feat: migrate hardware test demos and strategies from
 robot-hardware-tests
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Brings in the single-robot hardware test suite:
  - demo_dribbler_test.py       — fetch ball, carry forward with dribbler
  - demo_dribbler_test2.py      — dribbler sequence (forward/left/right/back)
  - demo_kicker_test.py         — fetch, align, kick, repeat
  - demo_one_robot_placement.py — 3x3 grid waypoint traversal

  - DribblerTestStrategy        — single-robot dribble carry
  - DribblerSequenceStrategy    — multi-leg dribble sequence
  - KickerTestStrategy          — fetch/align/kick loop
  - RobotPlacementStep          — updated to 3x3 snake-pattern grid (was simple oscillation)

demo_kicker_test and demo_one_robot_placement updated from the old
robot_id_map={} API to yellow_vision_to_cmd_mapping={} (real_mapping API).

Subject: [PATCH 112/142] fix: address Fred's review comments on PR #123

1. robot_info.py: untrusted robots now always get vision-proximity
   inference each frame, even when no RobotResponse arrives (dropped
   packet). Previously has_ball would stay frozen at the prior value.

2. strategy_runner.py: vision_to_cmd_mapping validation now checks that
   mapping keys cover all expected vision IDs (0..exp_n-1), not just
   the count. A mapping with the right length but wrong keys would
   previously pass and silently command the wrong physical robot.

3. real_robot_controller.py: annotate _dribbler_limit_warned and
   _dribbler_throttled as set[int] instead of bare set.

MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

- strategy_runner: replace contiguous-ID assumption (set(range(n))) with
  a count check at init; add _validate_mapping_covers_game_frame() called
  after _load_game() to verify keys match real observed vision IDs —
  fixes rejection of valid non-contiguous deployments like {5:0, 6:1, 7:2}
- one_robot_placement_strategy: remove stale `target = Vector2D(0, 0)`

Subject: [PATCH 114/142] fix: update placement strategy tests for 3x3 grid and
 fix arrival tolerance
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

- one_robot_placement_strategy: raise _ARRIVE_TOL from 0.1 to 0.15 m so
  the rsim motion controller reliably triggers waypoint advance (0.1 m
  caused the robot to hover just outside and freeze)
- test_placement_coords: rewrite tests to match 3x3 grid behaviour —
  verify the robot visits any two distinct grid waypoints instead of
  checking the old two-point oscillation targets; use same _ARRIVE_TOL
  as the strategy so test and strategy agree on when a waypoint is reached

Subject: [PATCH 126/142] feat: add ball placement entry point, strategy
 skeleton, and tests
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

- demo_ball_placement.py: colleague entry point wired with the Exhibition
  Road field (GREAT_EXHIBITION_FIELD_DIMS, 4 m × 3 m), CustomReferee
  pre-configured for out-of-bounds → ball placement cycles, and GUI on
  port 8080. Zero referee config work needed by the strategy developer.

- utama_core/strategy/examples/ball_placement_strategy.py: BallPlacementStep
  skeleton with detailed docstring guide (approach → capture → carry flow,
  relevant API pointers, dribbler usage). BallPlacementStrategy wires it
  into the referee override tree for 2v2 exhibition play.

- utama_core/tests/strategy_runner/test_ball_placement_rsim.py: three rsim
  integration tests covering the full placement contract — placer approaches
  ball, placer progresses toward designated_position, non-placer robots clear
  and hold outside BALL_KEEP_OUT_DISTANCE.

+
+What this sets up
+-----------------
+- Exhibition Road field (4 m × 3 m, ``GREAT_EXHIBITION_FIELD_DIMS``)
+- 2v2 format: two yellow robots (your team) vs two blue robots (wandering
+  opponents that trigger out-of-bounds events naturally)
+- CustomReferee pre-configured with:
+    - Goal detection enabled (issues PREPARE_KICKOFF → NORMAL_START cycle)
+    - Out-of-bounds enabled (issues STOP → BALL_PLACEMENT_YELLOW → DIRECT_FREE)
+    - Defense area and keep-out rules OFF (less noise during development)
+    - Auto-advance fully enabled so state transitions fire automatically —
+      you can watch the full placement → free-kick → restart cycle without
+      touching the GUI
+- Browser GUI at http://localhost:8080 — use "Manual Commands" to fire
+  BALL_PLACEMENT_YELLOW at any time and set the target position
+
+Your task
+---------
+Open ``utama_core/strategy/examples/ball_placement_strategy.py`` and implement
+``BallPlacementStep.update()``.  Everything else here is already wired up.
+
+Workflow
+--------
+1. Run this script and open http://localhost:8080.
+2. Kick the ball out of bounds (it happens naturally with wandering robots) or
+   use the GUI "Manual Commands" panel to issue BALL_PLACEMENT_YELLOW.
+3. Watch one of your robots (yellow) drive to the ball, capture it with the
+   dribbler, and carry it to the target circle shown in the GUI.
+4. Iterate until the test suite passes:

+"""ball_placement_strategy.py — Skeleton for the ball placement feature.
+
+Your task
+---------
+Implement ``BallPlacementStep.update()`` so that, when the referee issues
+BALL_PLACEMENT_YELLOW (our team places), one robot picks up the ball with its
+dribbler and carries it to ``game.referee.designated_position``, while the
+other robot waits clear of the ball.
+
+The referee integration (deciding *when* to use this behaviour) is already
+wired up in the referee override tree — you do not need to touch the referee
+config.  Your work is entirely inside this file's strategy and behaviour tree.
+
+How ball placement works
+------------------------
+1. Referee issues BALL_PLACEMENT_YELLOW with a ``designated_position`` (x, y).
+2. One robot (the "placer") drives to the ball with its dribbler on to capture it.
+3. Once it has the ball (``robot.has_ball`` is True), it carries it to
+   ``designated_position`` and stops.
+4. When the ball is within ``BALL_PLACEMENT_DONE_DISTANCE`` of the target the
+   referee auto-advances to DIRECT_FREE_YELLOW → NORMAL_START.
+5. All other robots must stay at least ``BALL_KEEP_OUT_DISTANCE`` from the ball.
+
+Useful references
+-----------------
+- ``game.referee.designated_position`` — (x, y) tuple, the placement target.
+- ``game.ball.p``                       — current ball position (Vector2D-like).
+- ``robot.has_ball``                    — True when the robot's IR dribbler sensor
+                                          detects the ball.
+- ``move(game, motion_controller, robot_id, target, orientation, dribbling=True)``
+  — send a motion command; pass ``dribbling=True`` to activate the dribbler.
+- ``empty_command(False)``              — stop a robot in place.
+- ``BALL_PLACEMENT_DONE_DISTANCE``      — 0.15 m; ball must be this close to target.
+- ``BALL_KEEP_OUT_DISTANCE``            — 0.8 m; clearance for non-placer robots.
+
+Running the demo
+----------------
+    pixi run python demo_ball_placement.py
+
+The RSim window opens and the browser GUI at http://localhost:8080 lets you
+issue BALL_PLACEMENT_YELLOW commands from the "Manual Commands" panel and watch
+your strategy respond.
+
+Running the tests
+-----------------
+    pixi run pytest utama_core/tests/strategy_runner/test_ball_placement_rsim.py -v
+
+There are three tests that must pass before the feature is considered complete:
+  1. placer robot drives toward the ball after the command is issued.
+  2. placer carries the ball toward the designated position (dribbler on).
+  3. non-placer robot stays outside the keep-out radius throughout.

+
+    Implementation guide
+    --------------------
+    The ``update()`` method is called every simulation tick while the referee
+    command is BALL_PLACEMENT_YELLOW.  It must:
+
+    1. Read ``game.referee.designated_position`` — the (x, y) target tuple.
+    2. If the ball is already at the target (within ``BALL_PLACEMENT_DONE_DISTANCE``),
+       stop all robots and return RUNNING (the referee will advance the state).
+    3. Pick the robot closest to the ball as the placer.
+    4. If the placer does not yet have the ball (``robot.has_ball`` is False),
+       drive it to the ball with the dribbler on.
+    5. Once the placer has the ball, drive it to ``designated_position`` with
+       the dribbler still on.
+    6. Keep all non-placer robots at least ``BALL_KEEP_OUT_DISTANCE`` away from
+       the ball by calling ``_clear_to_legal_positions``.
+
+    Return ``py_trees.common.Status.RUNNING`` on every tick (the referee
+    override tree holds here until the command changes).
+
+    Tips
+    ----
+    - Use ``Vector2D(target[0], target[1])`` to convert the tuple to a Vector2D.
+    - Orientation: ``robot.p.angle_to(target_pos)`` gives the heading angle.
+    - Call ``move(..., dribbling=True)`` to activate the dribbler.
+    - Write commands to ``self.blackboard.cmd_map[robot_id]`` for each robot.

+"""Integration tests for the ball placement feature.
+
+These tests verify that ``BallPlacementStrategy`` (and the underlying
+``BallPlacementStep`` behaviour) satisfies the three core requirements of
+automatic ball placement:
+
+  1. **Approach** — after BALL_PLACEMENT_YELLOW is issued, the placer robot
+     drives toward the ball.
+  2. **Carry** — once the robot captures the ball (``robot.has_ball`` or
+     proximity), it moves toward ``designated_position`` with the dribbler on.
+  3. **Clearance** — non-placer robots stay outside ``BALL_KEEP_OUT_DISTANCE``
+     throughout the placement phase.

+Setup
+-----
+- Exhibition Road field (``GREAT_EXHIBITION_FIELD_DIMS``, 4 m × 3 m).
+- 2v2 — two yellow robots (our team) controlled by ``BallPlacementStrategy``;
+  no enemy robots (they would interfere with deterministic positioning).
+- CustomReferee with the "simulation" profile so auto-advance fires and the
+  full BALL_PLACEMENT → DIRECT_FREE → NORMAL_START cycle can complete.
+
+Running
+-------
+    pixi run pytest utama_core/tests/strategy_runner/test_ball_placement_rsim.py -v

Subject: [PATCH 132/142] test: tighten ball placement rsim tests and add
 placer selection coverage
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

- Test 1: robot 0 now starts 1.5 m from the ball (was already within
  tolerance), checks distance decrease ≥ 0.8 m instead of threshold crossing
- Test 3: hardcode placer_id=0 from reset_field instead of re-deriving it
  with the same min(distance_to_ball) logic as the implementation (tautological);
  move ball to centre so robot 1 has room to reach 0.8 m clearance
- Test 4 (new): robot 1 starts closer to the ball than robot 0; asserts
  robot 1 approaches the ball and robot 0 does not — exercises placer
  selection with robot 0 as non-placer, which original tests never covered
- Module docstring: add Known Gap section explaining why has_ball carry
  phase transition is not tested end-to-end

Subject: [PATCH 133/142] feat: add god mode to referee GUI for manual ball
 placement testing

- Right-click field canvas (with God Mode active) to issue
  BALL_PLACEMENT_YELLOW/BLUE directly to any target point
- Uses force_command() on the state machine to bypass the STOP-first
  guard, so the command takes effect immediately without operator
  needing to advance through STOP manually
- Add demo_ball_placement_real.py: single-robot rsim/real entry point
  with all auto-rules off, operator-driven via GUI

+"""demo_ball_placement_real.py — Test ball placement with a single real robot.
+
+Run:
+    pixi run python demo_ball_placement_real.py
+    # Then open http://localhost:8080 in a browser
+
+What this sets up
+-----------------
+- Exhibition Road field (4 m x 3 m)
+- 1 yellow robot, no opponents
+- CustomReferee starts in HALT — the robot will not move until you issue a
+  command from the GUI
+- All automatic rule detection (out-of-bounds, goal, keep-out) is disabled so
+  the only commands come from the operator via the GUI
+
+Workflow
+--------
+1. Run this script and open http://localhost:8080.
+2. Place the ball somewhere on the field by hand.
+3. In the GUI "Manual Commands" panel, set a target position and issue
+   BALL_PLACEMENT_YELLOW.
+4. The robot drives to the ball with its dribbler on and attempts to carry it
+   to the target.
+5. Issue HALT from the GUI at any time to stop the robot immediately.
+
+Safety notes
+------------
+- The robot starts in HALT and will not move until you issue a command.
+- Keep the target position within the physical field bounds.
+- Issue HALT from the GUI before approaching the field.

Subject: [PATCH 134/142] fix: update direct free kick tests broken by
 ball-placement-first routing

DirectFreeOursStep unit tests were asserting the robot targets the exact
ball position, but the new implementation targets an approach point behind
the ball (_APPROACH_OFFSET). Update assertions to check the target is
closer to the ball than the robot's start position.

The two rsim integration tests were relying on OutOfBoundsRule triggering
DIRECT_FREE via OOB detection, but the state machine now routes through
BALL_PLACEMENT first before DIRECT_FREE. Switch reset_field to inject the
command directly via force_command() so each test stays focused on its
subject (kicker approach / keep-out clearance) rather than OOB detection.

Subject: [PATCH 135/142] feat: pivot around ball using turn_on_spot during
 ball placement carry
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

When the placer has the ball and needs to reorient toward the target,
use turn_on_spot (dribbling=True) instead of move — this offsets lateral
velocity so the robot orbits the ball contact point rather than spinning
around its own centre, reducing the chance the dribbler loses the ball.

Subject: [PATCH 136/142] fix: address 4 P2 review comments from fred
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

- state_machine: manual STOP→BALL_PLACEMENT_* via set_command now uses
  _post_ball_placement_command (like auto-advance 1) instead of
  unconditionally setting next_command=NORMAL_START, so foul-restart is
  preserved through placement.
- state_machine: force_command sets next_command=NORMAL_START when
  forcing a BALL_PLACEMENT_* command so auto-advance 4 can fire.
- KickAfterDirectFreeStep: replace seen-first-restart guard with
  prev_command tracking; only kick on NORMAL_START that followed
  a DIRECT_FREE_* command, so the post-placement restart is never skipped.
- demo_ball_placement_real.py: mode="real" (was "rsim").

Subject: [PATCH 137/142] fix: test_placer_moves_toward_designated_position
 robot start position
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Robot 0 was teleported onto the ball expecting has_ball to fire, but rsim
infrared doesn't trigger reliably. Start robot 0 at (-1.3, 0) instead —
behind the ball relative to the target — so the approach motion reduces
distance to target, making progress measurable without requiring has_ball.

Subject: [PATCH 138/142] fix: address 2 new P2 review comments from fred

- ball_placement_and_kick_strategy: KickAfterDirectFreeStep was never
  ticked during DIRECT_FREE_* (the RefereeOverride subtree handles it),
  so _prev_command never reached a DIRECT_FREE value and the post-
  placement kick was always skipped.  Introduced _CommandTracker, a
  mutable container updated by BallPlacementAndKickStrategy.step()
  before every tree tick, so the transition is observable even when the
  strategy subtree is overridden.

- robot_info: when trusted_ir_robots is set, untrusted robots that did
  not appear in robot_responses (non-blocking real-mode polling can omit
  robots) were keeping their stale has_ball value.  Refiner now applies
  vision-proximity inference for all untrusted robots up-front, then
  overlays IR readings only for trusted robots that responded.

Subject: [PATCH 140/142] fix: approach ball with back facing it for
 back-mounted kicker

go_to_ball was setting target_oren = robot.angle_to(ball), meaning
the robot approached with its front toward the ball. Since the
kicker and IR dribbler sensor are on the back, the robot now
approaches with back toward ball so the IR sensor triggers correctly.

PositionRefiner now accepts allowed_yellow_ids and allowed_blue_ids.
Any robot ID reported by SSL-Vision that is not in the allowlist is
dropped before it enters the game state, preventing stray detections
from permanently accumulating in friendly_robots/enemy_robots.

StrategyRunner derives the allowlists from yellow/blue vision_to_cmd_mapping
keys so the roster is implicitly defined by what is configured in gefr.py
(or any other runner) — no extra config needed.

Subject: [PATCH 142/142] fix: remove circular coverage check and guard blue
 allowlist in single-team mode

_validate_mapping_covers_game_frame was called after wait_until_game_valid
but observed_ids were already allowlist-filtered, making the check circular
and causing empty observed IDs in output. Removed the dead post-loop calls.

Blue allowlist is now only derived when opp_strategy is present; in
single-team mode blue robots must remain visible as enemies regardless of
whether a blue mapping was provided.
