Constraint: UNIQUE(battle_id, voter_lenser_id) — one vote per voter per battle.


battles.vote_aggregates

Denormalized vote summaries per contender, kept in sync on every vote.

battle_iduuidPK part 1
contender_iduuidPK part 2
raw_vote_countintegerTotal votes received
weighted_vote_sumnumericSum of weighted votes

updated_attimestamptzLast update

battles.contender_lens_assignments

Records which Connected Lens version is assigned to each contender slot, and stores the parameter values used at execution time.

ColumnTypeDescription
iduuidPrimary key
contender_iduuidFK → battles.contenders
lens_iduuidFK → lenses.lenses
version_iduuidFK → lenses.versions (null = use latest published)
input_snapshotjsonb{ "paramLabel": value } map — frozen parameter values substituted into [[param]] tokens at execution time. NOT NULL DEFAULT '{}'.
assigned_attimestamptz
assigned_byuuidFK → lensers.profiles

input_snapshot semantics: when a lens version declares required [[param]] placeholders, the wizard (Step 7) or CLI collects values and stores them here. At execution start the system calls renderLensWithSnapshot(templateBody, input_snapshot, versionParams) to produce the final prompt. If any required parameter is absent, execution is blocked with a descriptive error.


battles.rubrics and battles.rubric_criteria

Optional evaluation frameworks.

rubrics — metadata: id, creator_lenser_id, title, description, is_public, version.

rubric_criteria — individual criteria within a rubric: id, rubric_id, ordinal, title, description, weight (default 1.0).


battles.scorecards

ColumnTypeDescription

ColumnTypeDescription
