# Database Schema & Migration Strategy Report for `progression_benchmarks` **Author**: `explorer_m1_progression_2` **Target Milestone**: M1 (Piecewise EXP Curve, Database Schema Extension & Seeder Upgrade) **Parent**: `orchestrator_4` (`6f4a2aa2-4315-4660-8cb7-8352a7220c95`) **Directives**: FreeExile 2026 Standards (`GEMINI.md`, `ENGINEERING_STANDARDS_2026.md`, `ORIGINAL_REQUEST.md` § 2026-10-01T00:40:44Z) **Date**: 2026-10-01 --- ## Executive Summary This report provides the exact, production-ready database schema definition, backwards compatibility guarantee, and automated migration strategy for extending the `progression_benchmarks` table in `data/game_design_matrix.db` and `server/world/game_design_matrix_schema.py`. The analysis establishes: 1. **Existing Schema Deficiencies**: The current table in `game_design_matrix_schema.py` contains 7 columns populated via a legacy continuous power law ($500 \times \text{lvl}^{1.85}$), omitting essential progression attributes (`exp_to_next_level`, `cumulative_exp`, `death_penalty_ratio`, `level_gap_safe_range`, `level_gap_penalty_exp`, `monster_benchmark_exp`). 2. **Schema Extension (13 Columns)**: Addition of the 6 required columns with strict SQLite CHECK constraints. In particular, `exp_to_next_level >= 0` accommodates the Level 100 ceiling ($\Delta \text{EXP}(100) = 0$), and `death_penalty_ratio BETWEEN 0.0 AND 1.0` enables tiered death penalties (0% to 25%). 3. **100% Backwards Compatibility**: By defining `target_exp = cumulative_exp`, existing services (`validate_game_design_integrity`) and unit tests (`test_level_progression_benchmark` in `tests/unit/test_game_design_matrix.py`) continue to pass without regression. 4. **Airtight Migration Architecture**: Because SQLite `CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS` is a no-op on existing databases, a two-pronged migration strategy is defined: - Automatic schema detection and evolution in `GameDesignMatrixService._init_database()`. - A standalone migration script (`tools/migrations/migrate_progression_benchmarks.py`) and standalone SQL migration script (`migrations/001_extend_progression_benchmarks.sql`). 5. **Exact Code Specifications for Worker M1**: Complete drop-in code snippets for `game_design_matrix_schema.py`, `game_design_matrix_types.py`, `game_design_matrix_service.py`, and `game_design_matrix_seeder.py`. --- ## 1. Existing Database Schema & State Inspection ### 1.1 Existing Table Schema (`server/world/game_design_matrix_schema.py:131-140`) ```sql CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS progression_benchmarks ( level INTEGER PRIMARY KEY CHECK (level BETWEEN 1 AND 100), target_exp INTEGER NOT NULL CHECK (target_exp > 0), player_base_hp REAL NOT NULL CHECK (player_base_hp > 0), player_benchmark_dps REAL NOT NULL CHECK (player_benchmark_dps > 0), monster_base_hp REAL NOT NULL CHECK (monster_base_hp > 0), monster_base_dps REAL NOT NULL CHECK (monster_base_dps > 0), max_affix_tier_allowed INTEGER NOT NULL CHECK (max_affix_tier_allowed BETWEEN 1 AND 15) ); ``` ### 1.2 Inspection of Existing Database State (`data/game_design_matrix.db`) - **Total Rows**: Exactly 100 rows (Level 1 to 100). - **Foreign Keys**: No other table references `progression_benchmarks`. Table views (`v_quest_ecosystem`, `v_zone_summary`, `v_act_narrative_flow`) do not reference `progression_benchmarks`. - **Existing Data Values**: - `Level 1`: `target_exp = 500`, `player_base_hp = 100.0`, `max_affix_tier_allowed = 15` - `Level 85`: `target_exp = 1858548`, `player_base_hp = 2452.0`, `max_affix_tier_allowed = 1` - `Level 99`: `target_exp = 2459773` - `Level 100`: `target_exp = 2505936` - **Flaw**: Delta EXP from 99 to 100 in the existing database is only $46,163$ ($1.87\%$ of Level 99), failing the requirement that Level 99->100 is a hardcore soft-wall requiring $25-35\%$ of total lifetime EXP and $\ge 30\%$ of Level 1-99 accumulated EXP. --- ## 2. Proposed Schema Extension & Constraints ### 2.1 Complete 13-Column DDL ```sql CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS progression_benchmarks ( level INTEGER PRIMARY KEY CHECK (level BETWEEN 1 AND 100), target_exp INTEGER NOT NULL CHECK (target_exp > 0), exp_to_next_level INTEGER NOT NULL CHECK (exp_to_next_level >= 0), cumulative_exp INTEGER NOT NULL CHECK (cumulative_exp > 0), player_base_hp REAL NOT NULL CHECK (player_base_hp > 0), player_benchmark_dps REAL NOT NULL CHECK (player_benchmark_dps > 0), monster_base_hp REAL NOT NULL CHECK (monster_base_hp > 0), monster_base_dps REAL NOT NULL CHECK (monster_base_dps > 0), max_affix_tier_allowed INTEGER NOT NULL CHECK (max_affix_tier_allowed BETWEEN 1 AND 15), death_penalty_ratio REAL NOT NULL DEFAULT 0.0 CHECK (death_penalty_ratio BETWEEN 0.0 AND 1.0), level_gap_safe_range INTEGER NOT NULL DEFAULT 5 CHECK (level_gap_safe_range >= 0), level_gap_penalty_exp REAL NOT NULL DEFAULT 0.60 CHECK (level_gap_penalty_exp > 0), monster_benchmark_exp INTEGER NOT NULL DEFAULT 25 CHECK (monster_benchmark_exp > 0) ); ``` ### 2.2 Column Semantics & Constraint Verification Matrix | # | Column Name | SQLite Type | Constraints | Default | Semantic Purpose | |---|-------------|-------------|-------------|---------|------------------| | 1 | `level` | `INTEGER` | `PRIMARY KEY CHECK (level BETWEEN 1 AND 100)` | *None* | Benchmark level index (1..100). | | 2 | `target_exp` | `INTEGER` | `NOT NULL CHECK (target_exp > 0)` | *None* | Lifetime cumulative experience threshold; identical to `cumulative_exp` for backward compatibility. | | 3 | `exp_to_next_level` | `INTEGER` | `NOT NULL CHECK (exp_to_next_level >= 0)` | *None* | Delta EXP required to reach `level + 1`. Note: Strictly $0$ at Level 100; hence `CHECK (>= 0)`. | | 4 | `cumulative_exp` | `INTEGER` | `NOT NULL CHECK (cumulative_exp > 0)` | *None* | Total lifetime cumulative experience accumulated at this level. Monotonically increasing. | | 5 | `player_base_hp` | `REAL` | `NOT NULL CHECK (player_base_hp > 0)` | *None* | Benchmark baseline player health: $100.0 + (L-1) \times 28.0$. | | 6 | `player_benchmark_dps` | `REAL` | `NOT NULL CHECK (player_benchmark_dps > 0)` | *None* | Benchmark player DPS: $20.0 \times 1.12^{L-1}$. | | 7 | `monster_base_hp` | `REAL` | `NOT NULL CHECK (monster_base_hp > 0)` | *None* | Benchmark monster HP: $80.0 \times 1.10^{L-1}$. | | 8 | `monster_base_dps` | `REAL` | `NOT NULL CHECK (monster_base_dps > 0)` | *None* | Benchmark monster DPS: $12.0 \times 1.09^{L-1}$. | | 9 | `max_affix_tier_allowed`| `INTEGER` | `NOT NULL CHECK (BETWEEN 1 AND 15)` | *None* | Maximum item affix tier allowed (T15 at Lv 1, T1 unlocked at Lv 85). | | 10| `death_penalty_ratio` | `REAL` | `NOT NULL CHECK (BETWEEN 0.0 AND 1.0)` | `0.0` | Tiered fraction of current level EXP bar lost upon death (0.00, 0.05, 0.10, 0.15, 0.25). | | 11| `level_gap_safe_range` | `INTEGER` | `NOT NULL CHECK (level_gap_safe_range >= 0)`| `5` | Tolerance window ($\pm 5$ levels) with 100% EXP efficiency. | | 12| `level_gap_penalty_exp`| `REAL` | `NOT NULL CHECK (level_gap_penalty_exp > 0)` | `0.60` | Exponential decay rate $k = 0.60$ for $\exp(-k \times (\Delta - 5))$. | | 13| `monster_benchmark_exp`| `INTEGER` | `NOT NULL CHECK (monster_benchmark_exp > 0)`| `25` | Base monster experience scalar for procedural scaling. | --- ## 3. Mathematical Mapping: 7-Segment Piecewise Curve & Death Penalty The seeder calculates values for the 100 rows according to the following mathematical formulas: ### 3.1 Delta EXP Formula: $\Delta \text{EXP}(L)$ (`exp_to_next_level`) - **Tier 1 (Lvl 1 - 20) — Tutorial Acceleration**: $$\Delta \text{EXP}(L) = \lfloor 525 \times L^{2.05} \rfloor$$ *Sum(1..20)*: $1,479,669$ EXP ($0.0217\%$ of lifetime EXP, strictly $< 0.1\%$). - **Tier 2 (Lvl 21 - 40) — Acts I - II Storyline**: $$\Delta \text{EXP}(L) = \lfloor \Delta \text{EXP}(20) \times 1.095^{L - 20} \rfloor$$ - **Tier 3 (Lvl 41 - 60) — Acts III - IV & Endgame Prep**: $$\Delta \text{EXP}(L) = \lfloor \Delta \text{EXP}(40) \times 1.115^{L - 40} \rfloor$$ - **Tier 4 (Lvl 61 - 80) — Early/Mid Atlas Maps (T1 - T10)**: $$\Delta \text{EXP}(L) = \lfloor \Delta \text{EXP}(60) + (L - 60) \times (\Delta \text{EXP}(60) \times 0.075) \rfloor$$ *Linear slope ensuring steady farming rhythm.* - **Tier 5 (Lvl 81 - 90) — Late Atlas (T11 - T13)**: $$\Delta \text{EXP}(L) = \lfloor \Delta \text{EXP}(80) \times 1.165^{L - 80} \rfloor$$ - **Tier 6 (Lvl 91 - 98) — Red Maps (T14 - T16) Steep Incline**: $$\Delta \text{EXP}(L) = \lfloor \Delta \text{EXP}(90) \times 1.245^{L - 90} \rfloor$$ - **Tier 7 (Lvl 99 $\to$ 100) — Hardcore Soft-Wall**: $$\Delta \text{EXP}(99) = \lfloor 0.35 \times \sum_{i=1}^{98} \Delta \text{EXP}(i) \rfloor$$ *Represents $35.0\%$ of cumulative EXP from Level 1 to 99 ($\ge 30\%$) and $25.93\%$ of total lifetime EXP ($25-35\%$).* - **Level 100 (Max Cap)**: $$\Delta \text{EXP}(100) = 0$$ ### 3.2 Cumulative EXP Formula (`cumulative_exp` & `target_exp`) - For Level 1: $\text{cumulative\_exp}(1) = \Delta \text{EXP}(1) = 525$ - For Level $L \in [2, 99]$: $\text{cumulative\_exp}(L) = \sum_{i=1}^{L} \Delta \text{EXP}(i)$ - For Level 100: $\text{cumulative\_exp}(100) = \sum_{i=1}^{99} \Delta \text{EXP}(i) \approx 6.80 \times 10^9$ - **Monotonicity**: Since $\Delta \text{EXP}(L) > 0$ for all $L \in [1, 99]$, $\text{cumulative\_exp}(L)$ is strictly increasing across all 100 levels ($100\%$ compliant with `validate_game_design_integrity`). - **Equivalence**: $\text{target\_exp} = \text{cumulative\_exp}$ for all rows. ### 3.3 Death Penalty Ratio Formula (`death_penalty_ratio`) - **Level 1 - 60**: `0.00` (0% — Story/Early game grace period) - **Level 61 - 80**: `0.05` (5% of current level bar) - **Level 81 - 89**: `0.10` (10% of current level bar) - **Level 90 - 98**: `0.15` (15% of current level bar) - **Level 99**: `0.25` (25% of current level bar towards 100) - **Level 100**: `0.00` (Max level reached, no subsequent level progress to lose; de-leveling is strictly forbidden by safe floor rule) --- ## 4. Backwards Compatibility Verification ### 4.1 Queries in `server/world/game_design_matrix_service.py` 1. **Integrity Validation (Line 241)**: ```python cur.execute("SELECT level, target_exp FROM progression_benchmarks ORDER BY level ASC") prog_rows = cur.fetchall() prev_xp = 0 for r in prog_rows: if r["target_exp"] <= prev_xp: violations.append(f"Progression Curve non-monotonic at level {r['level']}: XP {r['target_exp']} <= {prev_xp}.") prev_xp = r["target_exp"] ``` *Compatibility Status*: **PASS**. `target_exp` is strictly increasing from $525$ to $\approx 6.8\text{ Billion}$. `target_exp <= prev_xp` will never evaluate to true. 2. **Benchmark Lookup (Line 164)**: ```python cur.execute("SELECT * FROM progression_benchmarks WHERE level = ?", (level,)) ``` *Compatibility Status*: **PASS**. SQLite returns all columns by name. Existing callers accessing `row.level`, `row.target_exp`, `row.player_base_hp`, `row.player_benchmark_dps`, `row.monster_base_hp`, `row.monster_base_dps`, `row.max_affix_tier_allowed` continue to work without any change. ### 4.2 Unit Tests (`tests/unit/test_game_design_matrix.py:75-88`) ```python def test_level_progression_benchmark(matrix_service: GameDesignMatrixService): b_lvl1 = matrix_service.get_level_progression_benchmark(1) assert b_lvl1 is not None assert b_lvl1.level == 1 assert b_lvl1.player_base_hp == 100.0 assert b_lvl1.max_affix_tier_allowed == 15 b_lvl85 = matrix_service.get_level_progression_benchmark(85) assert b_lvl85 is not None assert b_lvl85.level == 85 assert b_lvl85.player_base_hp > b_lvl1.player_base_hp assert b_lvl85.max_affix_tier_allowed == 1 ``` *Compatibility Status*: **PASS**. The formulas for `player_base_hp` ($100.0 + (L-1) \times 28.0$) and `max_affix_tier_allowed` (`_resolve_max_affix_tier(lvl)`) are preserved identically. Level 1 produces HP 100.0 and tier 15; Level 85 produces HP 2452.0 and tier 1. --- ## 5. Exact Migration Strategy & Implementation for Worker M1 ### 5.1 Migration Challenges in SQLite In SQLite, executing `CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS` against an existing database file that already possesses `progression_benchmarks` is a no-op. Without migration logic: 1. The table retains the old 7-column schema. 2. The upgraded seeder attempts to execute `INSERT INTO progression_benchmarks` with 13 values, triggering: `sqlite3.OperationalError: table progression_benchmarks has no column named exp_to_next_level`. ### 5.2 Two-Phased Solution Architecture #### Phase A: Automatic In-Place Schema Evolution (`server/world/game_design_matrix_service.py`) Add `_migrate_progression_benchmarks_if_needed(conn)` to `_init_database()`: - Inspects `PRAGMA table_info(progression_benchmarks)`. - If `exp_to_next_level` is absent, automatically drops the obsolete table and creates the 13-column table. - Calls `seed_all_canonical_data(conn)` to populate the new curve. - Ensures zero manual intervention across local dev environments and test runners. #### Phase B: Standalone SQL Migration Script (`migrations/001_extend_progression_benchmarks.sql`) A canonical, idempotent SQLite migration script following SQLite's 12-step table rebuild procedure for external tools, CI/CD runners, or DB administrators. --- ## 6.
