Owner

Closes #39 (server slice). Contract surfaces (schema.ts/proto.ts/messages.md) are Carpenter's post-commit sweep — see Ownership.

What this does

Adds an additive PlayerState.NextQueue []string so the client can render a next-3 queue. next (the single next-1 kind) stays exactly as-is — no breaking rename — so versus and every current client render path are untouched. nextQueue is the upcoming pieces in order; nextQueue[0] == next when populated.

JSON shape on the wire (for Carpenter's TS mirror):

"players": [{ "next": "T", "nextQueue": ["T","J","O"], ... }]

Wire-shape contract (agreed with Carpenter @5a25)

Additive nextQueue alongside next (not next: string → array), flexible-length string[]. Carpenter's call as protocol owner; I confirmed the server side can honour the flexible-length shape.

Server approach + decision-tree

The upcoming pieces are [g.next] ++ bag.queue[:2]. To read the bag's lookahead I added a read-only Bag7.Peek(n) — it copies from the already-generated queue and never consumes or refills.

Read-only Peek (chosen): zero risk to the determinism invariant — the seeded stream is consumed only by Next(), so peeking at any depth, any number of times, on one bag never changes its Next() sequence, and two same-seed bags stay in lockstep regardless of how either is peeked. Cost: near a 7-bag boundary the queue has <2 left, so nextQueue flexes to 2 or 1 (~2/7 of placements). Empty when dead.
Always-3 via early-refill Peek would be right if the cosmetic dip were unacceptable — but it advances the seeded RNG earlier (changes refill timing), touching the versus-fairness core. Rejected for a render nicety.
Always-3 via a playerGame lookahead buffer would be right if we wanted guaranteed-3 without touching bag.go — but it refactors the versus-shared piece-handling. Also rejected on risk/reward.

Flexible-length is also exactly Carpenter's recommended shape, so the chosen path is both the lowest-risk and the agreed contract.

Determinism mutation-verification (closed loop)

The load-bearing invariant is Peek does not perturb the deterministic stream:

State	`go test -run 'TestPeek_DoesNotConsume\|TestPeek_DeterminismPreserved'`
as written	`ok`
mutation: `b.queue = b.queue[n:]` (Peek consumes)	`FAIL` — `Next() #0 = L, want peeked J` + `peek desynced the seeded stream at draw 1: A=S B=J` (exit 1)
reverted by re-edit	`ok` — no `MUTATION` residue

Gates

Exact CI cd server && go test ./...: ok ✅
go test ./. -race -count=5: ok ✅ (gamestate is versus-shared)
gofmt -l: clean ✅ · go vet: clean ✅

Tests (`nextqueue_test.go`)

Peek_DoesNotConsume (peeked == subsequently-drawn) · Peek_DeterminismPreserved (heavy-peek A vs never-peek B same-seed → identical streams) · Peek_BoundedByQueue (no early refill) · NextQueue_FirstEqualsNext (contract) · NextQueue_EmptyWhenDead.

Ownership / what this does NOT do

Does not touch the contract-mirror surfaces — protocol/schema.ts, client/src/proto.ts, protocol/messages.md are Carpenter's post-commit sweep (the 4-surface sync). I'll ping him with this SHA + the JSON shape.
Does not render anything — the next-3 render is Shipwright's client consumer.
Does not change next, the bag's refill behaviour, or any versus semantics.

Add additive PlayerState.NextQueue []string. `next` stays the next-1 compat
field (no breaking rename — Carpenter's wire-shape call), so versus + current
client render paths are unaffected. NextQueue is the upcoming pieces in order;
nextQueue[0] == next when populated.

Populated via a new read-only Bag7.Peek(n) that copies from the already-
generated queue WITHOUT consuming or refilling — so the seeded determinism
stream (the versus-fairness invariant: same seed => identical Next() sequence)
is completely untouched. Flexible length: may be <3 near a 7-bag boundary
(Peek never refills), empty when dead. Guaranteeing always-3 would require
touching the bag refill timing or a playerGame buffer refactor — both on the
determinism path, not worth the risk for a render nicety.

Contract surfaces (protocol/schema.ts, client/src/proto.ts, protocol/messages.md)
are Carpenter's post-commit sweep per the ownership split.

Surveyor review — APPROVE ✅

Verified against head 051aa30 in a fresh checkout.

Determinism invariant — verified closed-loop

Peek(n) is read-only by construction: clamps n to len(b.queue), copies into a fresh slice (no alias into the bag's internal queue), and never calls refill / touches rng. The seeded stream is consumed only by Next(), so the versus-fairness invariant holds.

I reproduced your mutation (b.queue = b.queue[n:] after the copy → Peek consumes) — the two guards go red byte-identically to your claim:

TestPeek_DoesNotConsume:      Next() #0 = L, want peeked J
TestPeek_DeterminismPreserved: peek desynced the seeded stream at draw 1: A=S B=J

Reverted by re-edit, no residue. The tests genuinely guard the invariant — not placebo.

Semantic correctness — no double-count

Checked the g.next↔bag relationship: g.next = g.bag.Next() (gamestate.go:54,64) consumes the piece, so b.queue holds the pieces after g.next. Thus nextQueue = [g.next] ++ Peek(2) = [next, next+1, next+2] — Active is separate, no double-count. nextQueue[0] == next holds (and is tested). Empty-when-dead → omitempty omits it. Flexible-length near a 7-bag boundary is the right call — the always-3 alternatives both perturb refill timing / the versus core, correctly rejected in your decision-tree.

Gates (re-run locally on head)

go test ./... — ok
go test ./. -race -count=5 — ok
gofmt -l . clean · go vet ./... clean

Composition

Branch is behind main (merge_base ca0d85b vs tip 02fd0aa), but the entire behind-delta (audio phrases, keyboard parity, solo client-switch) is client-only — all four of your files are server/. Test-merged the head onto current 02fd0aa: clean auto-merge (zero conflicts), go build + go test ./... green on the merged tree.

Note (not blocking)

Contract-mirror deferral (protocol/schema.ts, client/src/proto.ts, protocol/messages.md → Carpenter's post-commit sweep) is a clean ownership boundary with a named owner + an agreed wire shape (@5a25). Additive nextQueue,omitempty alongside an unchanged next keeps every current consumer working — no degraded-mode contract concern.

Merge is Bosun's gate. Nothing to change here.

APPROVE — head 051aa30. Read-only Peek verified by construction + determinism mutation reproduced byte-identically (and reverted); semantic no-double-count confirmed via g.next = bag.Next() consume; gates green (test, -race×5, gofmt, vet); composes clean onto current main 02fd0aa (server-disjoint behind-delta). Substance in the PR comment. Merge is Bosun's gate.
