_release_failed_bet and _release_failed_withdrawal restored the balance, freed
the reserved UTXOs and (for a bet) removed the participant without calling
broadcaster.publish(), so every dashboard kept showing the phantom bet and the
reduced balance until its next poll — while the success path and the
reconciler's own abandon path both published.
The two regression tests pre-open the round before subscribing: place_bet opens
one itself, and that publish() would otherwise satisfy the assertion whether or
not the rollback published anything.
select_utxos had no ceiling on input count, so an address fragmented into many
small deposits built an ever-larger transaction whose fee — deducted from the
amount being moved — eroded the bet's share of the pool or the withdrawn amount,
and past a few hundred inputs stopped being standard at all.
MAX_TX_INPUTS (50) now bounds the selection. Reaching the cap without covering
the target is reported as its own "too_many_inputs" code, distinct from having
no funds, with the cap carried in the error params for the 7 translations. The
payout path records the same distinction in its payout_failed audit reason.
The code treated a broadcast as final: money moved on-chain and the DB was
updated on the assumption it would either confirm or be fee-bumped until it
did. Neither is guaranteed, and every way that assumption broke was permanent
(BUGS.md B-02, B-03, B-04, B-07, B-08, B-20, B-21).
Persist before broadcasting. place_bet and request_withdrawal now write their
rows in a "building" state and commit, then broadcast, then promote to
broadcast/pending in a second commit. Before, a failure or crash between the
broadcast and the commit left the coins irreversibly spent with no trace: no
participant (so no entry in the draw), no pending row (so no RBF and no
confirmation tracking), and the UTXOs not even marked spent, so the next bet
would try to double-spend them. A refused broadcast now releases the reserved
UTXOs, restores the balance, removes the participant (or marks the withdrawal
failed), audit-logs it, and answers a translatable broadcast_failed — as 502,
since the network refused it, not the caller, where it used to be an opaque 500.
Reconcile what's in flight against the chain. New PendingTransactionReconciler
(app/tx/reconcile.py, every 120s and once at startup) asks whether each
non-terminal tx exists: present -> promote, gone -> mark failed with a reason,
release the inputs, roll the domain row back, audit-log it. Grace periods differ
by state (120s for "building", 6h for "pending", so the RBF bumper gets its
attempts first). It is deliberately biased to inaction: only a server that
positively doesn't know the tx counts as absent, and a transport failure never
abandons anything, because releasing a UTXO whose tx is actually alive would
invite a double-spend. Verified against the live server, which answers "No such
mempool or blockchain transaction" for an unknown txid.
Stop keying on a value that changes. An RBF bump changes the txid, and
_on_bet_confirmed looked the participant up by bet_txid — so a bumped bet
confirmed under a txid no participant carried, the row stayed "broadcast"
forever, and the scheduler waited on it forever: the round could never close and
the lottery stopped. Handlers now resolve by immutable ids (round_id/user_id,
withdrawal_id), and bump_fee retargets every stored txid — bet_txid,
Withdrawal.txid, Round.payout_txid and UtxoEvent.spent_txid — plus records the
previous one in replaced_by_txid, which was never written at all.
One bad row no longer blocks the rest. The confirmation poller's per-tx lookup
is guarded: a txid the server can't resolve used to abort the whole pass, so
nothing confirmed again until an operator intervened. It also selects plain
columns instead of hydrating entities that outlive their session.
Tests: 6 reconciler cases including "a broken connection must not release coins";
the bet-ordering test probes committed state from an independent session during
the broadcast, and caught a real mistake in the first draft of this change (the
_pending_transaction helper still hardcoded status="pending", so rows were born
already-broadcast and would have got the 6-hour grace instead of 120s).

The dashboard now speaks seven languages but every failure path still showed
the API's raw English text ("insufficient balance", "current password is
incorrect"), which is the most frequent and least forgiving part of the UI to
leave untranslated.
Rather than teach the API about locales, it keeps answering in one language
and hands the client something to translate: `detail` becomes
{code, message, params}, where message stays English for non-dashboard
consumers (curl, tests) and code maps onto `error.<code>` in i18n.js. An
unknown code falls back to message, so a client older or newer than the server
degrades to English instead of a blank toast.
Domain exceptions (BetError, WithdrawalError) subclass the new ApiError and
carry the code from where the failure actually happens; str(exc) is still the
English message, so existing tests keep matching on it. Interpolated values
travel in params rather than baked into the English sentence — amounts as
*_sats, from which the frontend derives a *_plm sibling, so each language can
place them wherever its grammar wants.
admin.js reads detail.message defensively: the admin endpoints still return a
bare string, but the shared auth dependencies now return the structured form.

Frontend dashboards previously found out about state changes only on their
next poll tick (up to 15s, or 3s during a draw) — this adds a push channel
so updates land as soon as they happen instead.
- app/rounds/events.py: a small in-process pub/sub (RoundEventBroadcaster).
The message carries no payload — it's just a "something changed, go
refetch" signal, so it needs no auth and no knowledge of who's allowed to
see what; personalization stays entirely in the existing REST endpoints.
- GET /rounds/stream: an SSE endpoint exposing that channel, with keep-alive
comments so it survives idle periods behind a reverse proxy, and a
defensive MAX_SUBSCRIBERS cap (well above the ~100 concurrent users
expected) — past it, the endpoint returns 503 instead of opening a stream,
and callers just keep working off polling.
- publish() calls added at every point that actually changes what a
dashboard would want to know: new round opened, round status transitions
(closing/drawing/paying_out/closed), a bet or withdrawal broadcast, any
pending tx confirming (bet/withdrawal/payout), a deposit credited, and a
new block tip arriving (the exact moment the "drawing" phase is waiting on).
- Caddyfile: excludes /rounds/stream from gzip encoding, since compression
would buffer output and defeat the point of a live stream.
Single-process only by design for now (no cross-worker fan-out) and the
notification is a generic broadcast rather than a per-user channel — both
are deliberate scope decisions for the current ~100-user, single-container
deployment, not oversights. Polling is left fully in place as a fallback;
this is purely additive.

The round timer relied on each client's own wall clock, so two browsers with
skewed local clocks showed different countdowns for the same round; the
server now also returns server_time so the frontend can correct for clock
skew. Also drop out-of-order /rounds/current responses (multiple independent
triggers could resolve late and revert the UI to a stale drawing/result
state) and prune per-round bookkeeping maps on round transitions.
Separately, place_bet only checked status == "open", leaving a window (up to
the scheduler's 5s tick interval) after a round's timer hit zero where a new
bet could still be accepted. place_bet now checks the round's own deadline
directly (round_accepts_bets), acting as an immediate "yellow light" for new
entries while still letting already-broadcast bets confirm before the round
closes.

RoundConfig gains round_duration_seconds, round_cooldown_seconds,
min_amount_sats, fee_rate_sat_vb and rbf_timeout_seconds (plus a
hardcoded default for the pre-existing bet_amount_sats) as column
defaults on the model itself — get_round_config no longer seeds from
Settings at all. Every call site that read these from settings
(scheduler, bets, withdrawals, rounds service/route, RBF bumper) now
reads the DB-backed RoundConfig instead.
app/config.py now holds only true env-driven infra/secrets (database
URL, Electrum connection, master key, JWT, admin token) — no business
parameter has an env var anymore, matching an explicit decision to drop
the "seed from settings" indirection entirely rather than keep a env
fallback nobody should rely on.
Migration backfills the existing round_config row via server_default
(matching the old settings defaults) then drops the default, so future
rows go through the ORM/model defaults instead of a stale constant.
Tests updated: should_bump's timeout_seconds is now required (no
settings fallback); test_scheduler.py seeds a RoundConfig row directly
instead of monkeypatching settings; test_withdrawals.py and
test_rounds_service.py use local constants mirroring the model
defaults instead of reading them off settings.

open_new_round_if_needed now withholds opening the next round until
ROUND_COOLDOWN_SECONDS (default 30) have passed since the previous
round's closed_at, returning None in that window instead of a Round.
Without this, the next round opened within one scheduler tick (~5s) of
the previous payout confirming — not enough time for a player to
notice the round they were in actually resolved.
Callers updated: the scheduler treats None as "nothing to do this
tick", and place_bet raises a "try again shortly" BetError instead of
crashing on a None round.
Not in the original flowchart — a deliberate UX addition on top of it,
documented as such in CLAUDE.md.

Places the fixed-cost bet into the current round: builds and broadcasts
the user->pool PSBT with change back to the user's own address, enforces
at most one active bet per user, and registers the confirmation handler
that marks a bet confirmed and adds the participant to the round.
