Phase 3 shipped a Bot dispatch table that ack'd InitBattle without
pushing Matched and stayed silent on Loaded, per the architecture spec's
inference that "the client uses AIBattleStart HTTP data instead of
Matched in Bot mode." That inference was wrong.
The client's matching state machine (Matching.ReactionReceiveUri,
Matching.cs:400) gates StartBattleLoad() on the Matched envelope, and
BattleStart at Matching.cs:417 triggers GotoBattle. Without those
envelopes the client never transitions out of MatchingStatus.Connect —
which renders as the "Waiting for opponent" hang on the loading screen.
AIBattleStart HTTP only provides opponent cosmetics, not state-machine
triggers.
Fix: drop the Bot-specific InitBattle ack-only and Loaded silent arms;
let Bot fall through to the existing handshake arms that push Matched
and BattleStart + Deal. Only TurnEnd stays Bot-specific (Judge to
sender, not broadcast — there's no real other side to broadcast to).
Tests updated to match the corrected contract. ai-passive.md doc
amended with a correction note.
