The product argued with itself: FAB/nav said "Scan", Free tier "5 scans",
ticker "MLB slate scanned" — while the Ledger says "MY READS". Swept every
user-visible surface to READ:
- BottomTabBar FAB + Nav link: 'Scan' → 'Read'
- Pricing free tier: '5 scans to try the model' → '5 reads …'
- StatStrip: 'Awaiting next scan' → 'Awaiting next read'
- Ticker badge + snapshotService event: tag 'SCAN' → 'READ',
'slate scanned' → 'slate read' (readSportOf parses BOTH old and new so
cached ticker items dedupe cleanly through the rollover)
- upgradePitch: 'You've scanned N parlays' / 'unlimited scans' → read/reads
Internal untouched (not user-visible): /api/scan routes, scan_count column,
scanning state, DemoScan/ScanIcon, scanlines CSS, the transitional SCAN
color-map key.
tests/unit/verbLaw.test.js is the enforcement: it fails on user-visible
scan/scanned/scans copy across web/src + src/services (skips comments). Suite
270/3254 green, web build exit 0.

Threads a REAL athlete id from the snapshot's per-player stats resolve (zero
new I/O) → enriched grade → grades:{sport} → slate strip → PlayerAvatar. Real
photo where an id resolves; team-colored monogram (never a gray silhouette,
never a broken image) where it can't. Ids are never fabricated.
Ingestion (Addition 1):
- espnStatsAdapter.getSeasonAverages now RETURNS the resolved ESPN athlete id
(was discarded) as espnId; non-numeric uid degrades to null.
- playerIntelService surfaces MLBAM playerId (MLB) / ESPN espnId (NBA/WNBA).
- snapshotService captures both per player and stores them on the enriched
grade beside archetype/team (null when unresolved → monogram path).
Thread → component:
- slateAdapter.buildPlayerStripsFromProps carries playerId/espnId onto each
strip; StatStrip → PlayerAvatar (accepts both ids; getHeadshotUrl routes by
sport: MLB→mlbstatic, NBA/WNBA→a.espncdn).
- Silhouette surfaces rewired to PlayerAvatar (branded monogram on null):
scan search dropdown (guarded MLBAM p.id) + tonight chips, SearchModal,
HotListPanel, GradeResultCard header. Scan grade card feeds the picked
MLBAM id through gradeAdapter.
- playerHeadshot pure URL logic extracted to CommonJS playerHeadshotUrl.js
(unit-testable; the .ts re-exports it). nfl/nhl added to ESPN_SPORT_PATH.
Tests: tests/unit/headshotThread.test.js (per-league URL + id thread + monogram
null path) + extended snapshotService/espnStatsAdapter suites. Full suite
241 suites / 2915 green; next build exit 0.

The on-demand "Read" grade model is RETIRED. A scheduled pipeline pre-grades the
slate, locks grades to the line, tracks movement; the dashboard shows them already
there. Orchestrates existing services — nothing rebuilt.
- snapshotService.runSnapshot(sport): getOdds → gradeAndCacheSlate → classify
archetype per player → lock gradedAt → line deltas vs previous snapshot → write
snapshot:{sport}:latest/previous + grades:{sport} → ticker events. Fully
injectable, zero-network unit tests. runAllSnapshots = cron entrypoint.
- Internal trigger POST /api/internal/snapshot/:sport + /all (requireInternalAuth).
In-process cron (SNAPSHOT_CRON=1, UTC 14,19,22,1,3) in server.js, no new dep.
- Public reads: GET /api/snapshot/:sport (cache-only) + GET /api/ticker (merges
TICKER_MANUAL pins) + Next proxies.
- GameCard swap: live Slate renders vyndr/GameCard (legacy kept for types only),
overlays locked grades onto game props → player name once + archetype badge +
"Graded Xh ago at -115 · Current 2.5 · ▲ TOWARD +1.0". Ungraded → "Awaiting next
scan", NO Read button. On-demand onGrade flow deleted.
- Ticker polls /api/ticker every 30s, graceful fallback to hardcoded items.
- NBA/WNBA: espnStatsAdapter free fallback (defensive parse → found:false on shape
mismatch) wired into resolvePlayerStats after the offline Python service.
Env: PROPLINE_API_KEY_1/2/3, VYNDR_INTERNAL_KEY, SNAPSHOT_CRON=1, TICKER_MANUAL.
Backend 2061 -> 2100 tests (+39), 173 suites. Web build clean (exit 0).
