+# CLAUDE.md
+
+This file provides guidance to Claude Code (claude.ai/code) when working with code in this repository.
+
+## Project Overview
+
+Eagle0 is a multi-language gaming system combining strategic turn-based gameplay (Eagle) with tactical hex-based combat (Shardok). The system integrates LLM-based narrative generation and supports both human and AI players.
+
+## Architecture
+
+**Three-Tier Game System:**
+- **Unity Client (C#)**: Real-time strategy game client with integrated tactical combat UI
+- **Eagle (Scala)**: Strategic layer managing turn-based gameplay, diplomacy, hero progression, and province control
+- **Shardok (C++)**: Tactical layer handling real-time hex-based combat simulation with performance-critical battle resolution
+
+**Communication Flow:**
+```
+Unity Client ↔ Eagle (gRPC streaming) ↔ Shardok (internal gRPC) 
+```
+
+**Key Entry Points:**
+- `/src/main/csharp/net/eagle0/clients/unity/eagle0/` - Unity C# game client
+- `/src/main/scala/net/eagle0/eagle/Main.scala` - Eagle strategic game server
+- `/src/main/cpp/net/eagle0/shardok/shardok_server_main.cpp` - Shardok tactical server
+
+**Protocol Buffer Architecture:**
+- Extensive use of protobuf for type-safe communication
+- Separate packages: `api/` (client-facing), `internal/` (server state), `views/` (client projections)
+- Event sourcing pattern with immutable action history
+
+## Essential Commands
+
+### Building
+```bash
+# Build Eagle server (Scala strategic layer)
+bazel build //src/main/scala/net/eagle0/eagle:eagle_server_deploy.jar
+
+# Build Shardok server (C++ tactical layer) 
+bazel build -c opt //src/main/cpp/net/eagle0/shardok:shardok-server
+
+# Build Unity/C# client
+./scripts/build_protos.sh         # Protocol buffer generation for Unity
+./scripts/build_plugins.sh        # Native plugins for all platforms  
+./scripts/build_windows_plugin.sh # Windows-specific plugin build
+# Unity builds via CI: ci/github_actions/build_unity.sh
+```
+
+### Running Services
+```bash
+# Eagle server (port 40032)
+bazel run //src/main/scala/net/eagle0/eagle:eagle_server -- --eagle-grpc-port 40032
+# Or: ./scripts/eagle_run.sh
+
+# Shardok server  
+bazel run //src/main/cpp/net/eagle0/shardok:shardok-server --compilation_mode=opt
+# Or: ./scripts/shardok_run.sh
+```
+
+### Testing
+```bash
+# Run all tests
+bazel test //src/test/... //src/main/go/...
+
+# Component-specific tests
+bazel test //src/test/scala/...  # Scala Eagle tests
+bazel test //src/test/cpp/...    # C++ Shardok tests
+```
+
+### Code Generation
+```bash
+bazel run gazelle              # Update Go build files
+./scripts/updateActionResultTypes.sh   # Update protocol buffer mappings
+```
+
+## Language-Specific Patterns
+
+**Scala (Strategic Layer):**
+- Use `EngineImpl.scala` for core game logic modifications
+- Follow event sourcing pattern - all changes through immutable actions
+- gRPC streaming for real-time client updates via `EagleServiceImpl.scala`
+- LLM integration in `/common/llm_integration/` for narrative generation
+
+**C++ (Tactical Layer):**
+- Performance-critical combat in `ShardokEngine.hpp/.cpp`
+- FlatBuffers for efficient serialization in `/flatbuffer/` directory
+- AI systems in `/ai/` subdirectory with pluggable strategy selectors
+- Extensive unit testing with Google Test framework
+
+**Protocol Buffers:**
+- Three-layer structure: `api/` (client), `internal/` (server), `views/` (projections)
+- Use `shardok_internal_interface.proto` for Eagle-Shardok communication
+- Maintain backward compatibility when modifying existing messages
+
+**C# (Unity Client):**
+- Located in `/src/main/csharp/net/eagle0/clients/unity/eagle0/`
+- Uses Unity 6 (6000.0.32f1) with comprehensive protobuf integration (100+ .proto files)
+- Key components: `EagleConnection.cs` (gRPC client), `EagleGameController.cs` (main game logic)
+- Real-time bidirectional streaming with server via `PersistentClientConnection.cs`
+- Strategic map UI in `Assets/Eagle/`, tactical battle UI in `Assets/Shardok/`
+- Seamless transition between strategic gameplay and hex-based tactical combat
+
+**Go (Build Tools):**
+- Build automation and code generation utilities
+- AWS S3 integration for deployment artifacts
+
+## Testing Strategy
+
+- Comprehensive unit tests for both Scala and C++ components
+- Integration tests for Eagle-Shardok communication
+- Map validation tests ensure game content integrity
+- Use `GameSettings_test_utils.cpp` and `ShardokEngineBasedTestData.cpp` for C++ test helpers
+
+## Game Content
+
+**Maps:** `.e0mj` files in `/src/main/resources/net/eagle0/shardok/maps/`
+**Configuration:** Game parameters in `/src/main/resources/net/eagle0/eagle/game_parameters.json`
+**Data Files:** TSV format for battalions, heroes, and other game data
+
+## Deployment
+
+- Bazel handles multi-language builds and dependencies
+- CI/CD via GitHub Actions with platform-specific build scripts in `/ci/github_actions/`
+- Docker containerization available via `ci/eagle_run.Dockerfile`

+# Eagle0 Installer Credential System
+
+The installer has been updated to use dynamic user credentials instead of hardcoded authentication. This improves security and provides a better user experience.
+
+## Key Features
+
+### 1. **Dynamic Credential Management**
+- **No hardcoded passwords** in configuration files
+- **User-prompted login** when credentials are needed
+- **Secure credential storage** using Windows Data Protection API
+- **Automatic credential sharing** with Unity client
+
+### 2. **User Experience**
+- **Saved credentials** are reused automatically
+- **Login dialog** appears only when needed
+- **Remember credentials** option for convenience
+- **401 error handling** with automatic re-prompting
+
+### 3. **Security Features**
+- **Encrypted password storage** using DPAPI (user-scoped)
+- **Registry storage** for username/server (non-sensitive)
+- **Automatic credential clearing** on authentication failure
+- **Unity client compatibility** for shared login state
+
+## How It Works
+
+### **First Run Flow**
+1. User launches installer
+2. No saved credentials found
+3. Login dialog appears
+4. User enters username/password/server
+5. Credentials saved securely (if requested)
+6. Installer proceeds with updates
+
+### **Subsequent Runs**
+1. User launches installer
+2. Saved credentials loaded automatically
+3. Installer proceeds with updates
+4. No user interaction needed
+
+### **Authentication Failure Flow**
+1. Installer detects 401 Unauthorized response
+2. Saved credentials cleared automatically
+3. Login dialog appears with error message
+4. User enters corrected credentials
+5. Installer retries with new credentials
+
+### **Changing Valid Credentials**
+Users can change working credentials through multiple methods:
+
+**Method 1: Interactive Prompt (Default)**
+1. Launch installer normally
+2. See message: "Using saved credentials for user: john@example.com"
+3. Press 'C' within 3 seconds to change credentials
+4. Login dialog appears with current credentials pre-filled
+
+**Method 2: Command Line Flag**
+```bash
+EagleInstaller.exe --login
+EagleInstaller.exe --change-credentials
+```
+
+**Method 3: Clear and Re-enter**
+```bash
+EagleInstaller.exe --clear-credentials
+EagleInstaller.exe  # Next run will prompt for new credentials
+```
+
+### **Credential Sharing with Unity Client**
+- Launcher saves credentials in Unity PlayerPrefs format
+- Unity client can access same username/password/server
+- Seamless transition from launcher to game
+
+## File Structure
+
+### **New Files Added**
+- `CredentialManager.cs` - Secure credential storage/retrieval
+- `LoginDialog.cs` - Windows Forms login dialog
+
+### **Modified Files**
+- `Program.cs` - Integrated credential prompting and error handling
+- `EagleUpdater.cs` - Dynamic authentication and 401 error detection
+- `EagleInstaller.csproj` - Added Windows Forms support
+- `configuration.txt` - Removed hardcoded credentials
+
+### **Credential Storage Locations**
+- **Username/Server**: `HKCU\SOFTWARE\Eagle0\Launcher`
+- **Password**: `%LocalAppData%\eagle0\eagle0_credentials.dat` (encrypted)
+- **Unity Sharing**: `HKCU\SOFTWARE\Unity\UnityEditor\CompanyName\ProductName`
+
+## Configuration
+
+The `configuration.txt` file now only contains non-sensitive settings:
+
+```
+manifest_name = eagle0WIN_manifest.txt
+remote_manifest_prefix = assets/unity3d/
+remote_asset_prefix = assets/unity3d/win/
+```
+
+Server URL, username, and password are now provided by the user through the login dialog.
+
+## Command Line Options
+
+The installer supports several command line flags for credential management:
+
+```bash
+EagleInstaller.exe                    # Normal operation
+EagleInstaller.exe --help             # Show help message  
+EagleInstaller.exe --login            # Force credential dialog
+EagleInstaller.exe --change-credentials # Same as --login
+EagleInstaller.exe --clear-credentials # Clear saved credentials
+```
+
+During normal operation, users see a 3-second prompt to change credentials:
+```
+Using saved credentials for user: john@example.com
+Press 'C' within 3 seconds to change credentials, or any other key to continue...
+```
+
+## Benefits
+
+1. **Security**: No more plaintext passwords in config files
+2. **Flexibility**: Users can connect to different servers/accounts  
+3. **User Experience**: Credentials remembered between sessions
+4. **Easy Changes**: Multiple ways to update credentials
+5. **Error Recovery**: Automatic handling of expired/invalid credentials
+6. **Integration**: Shared credentials with Unity game client
+7. **Self-Updating**: Maintains credential system through installer updates
+
+## Technical Implementation
+
+### **Two-Stage Approach**
+The installer maintains both the two-stage installer update system AND the new credential system:
+
+**Stage 1**: Check installer version (with authentication)
+**Stage 2**: Update game files (with same credentials)
+
+Both stages use the same credential system and handle 401 errors consistently.
+
+### **Error Handling**
+- `AuthenticationFailedException` for 401 responses
+- Automatic credential retry loop
+- Graceful fallback on credential prompt cancellation
+- Backup/restore for failed credential saves
+
+This system provides enterprise-grade credential management while maintaining the simple user experience of the original installer.

+# Eagle0 Installer GUI Update
+
+The installer has been transformed from a console application to a modern Windows Forms GUI application that displays file download information in a scrollable window.
+
+## Key Changes
+
+### **New GUI Components**
+
+**1. MainForm.cs**
+- **Dual-panel design**: Login view and Progress view
+- **Login Panel**: Username, password, server URL, remember credentials checkbox
+- **Progress Panel**: Status label + scrollable text box with file download details
+- **Terminal-style output**: Black background, green text, console font
+- **Timestamped messages**: Each log entry shows `[HH:mm:ss] message`
+
+**2. Logger.cs**
+- **Unified logging system**: Outputs to both console AND GUI
+- **Thread-safe**: Uses Invoke for cross-thread GUI updates
+- **Multiple log levels**: WriteLine, UpdateStatus, WriteError, WriteWarning
+- **Auto-scrolling**: Progress text box automatically scrolls to show latest messages
+
+### **User Experience Flow**
+
+**1. Application Startup**
+- Windows Forms application opens with professional login dialog
+- Saved credentials auto-populated (if available)
+- "Remember credentials" checkbox for convenience
+
+**2. Login Process**
+- User enters/confirms credentials
+- Click "Login" button to proceed
+- Form switches to progress view
+
+**3. Progress Display**
+- **Status line**: Shows current operation (e.g., "Downloading files...")
+- **Scrollable log**: Shows detailed file-by-file progress
+- **Color-coded messages**:
+  - ✓ Green checkmarks for successful downloads
+  - ✗ Red X marks for errors
+  - Blue status updates
+- **Change Credentials button**: Allows switching back to login
+
+**4. File Download Information**
+Now appears in the GUI progress window:
+```
+[14:32:15] Downloading: game/eagle0.exe
+[14:32:16] ✓ Verified and saved: game/eagle0.exe
+[14:32:16] Downloading: game/assets/textures.bundle
+[14:32:18] ✓ Verified and saved: game/assets/textures.bundle
+[14:32:18] Up to date: game/data.unity3d
+[14:32:18] All downloads completed successfully.
+```
+
+### **Technical Implementation**
+
+**Unified Logging System:**
+```csharp
+// Both console and GUI output
+Logger.WriteLine("Downloading: game/eagle0.exe");
+Logger.UpdateStatus("Update completed successfully!");
+Logger.WriteError("Network connection failed");
+```
+
+**Thread-Safe GUI Updates:**
+```csharp
+public void AppendProgress(string message) {
+    if (progressTextBox.InvokeRequired) {
+        progressTextBox.Invoke(new Action<string>(AppendProgress), message);
+        return;
+    }
+    progressTextBox.AppendText($"[{DateTime.Now:HH:mm:ss}] {message}\r\n");
+    progressTextBox.ScrollToCaret();
+}
+```
+
+**Dual Output Support:**
+- **Console mode**: When run from command line, still shows console output
+- **GUI mode**: When double-clicked, shows Windows Forms interface
+- **Both simultaneously**: Console + GUI for debugging
+
+### **Credential Management Integration**
+
+All existing credential features work with the new GUI:
+- **Command line flags**: `--login`, `--clear-credentials`, `--help`
+- **Saved credentials**: Auto-populate form fields
+- **Authentication errors**: Show login form with error message
+- **Unity client sharing**: Credentials still saved for game client
+
+### **File Structure Changes**
+
+**New Files:**
+- `MainForm.cs` - Main Windows Forms interface
+- `Logger.cs` - Unified console/GUI logging system
+- `GUI_UPDATE.md` - This documentation
+
+**Modified Files:**
+- `Program.cs` - GUI application lifecycle management
+- `EagleUpdater.cs` - All Console.WriteLine → Logger calls
+- `EagleInstaller.csproj` - Added Windows Forms support
+
+### **Benefits**
+
+1. **Professional Appearance**: Modern Windows Forms interface
+2. **Better User Experience**: Clear progress indication with scrollable log
+3. **File Download Visibility**: Users can see exactly which files are being processed
+4. **Error Transparency**: Color-coded success/failure indicators
+5. **Credential Management**: Integrated login with remember option
+6. **Backwards Compatibility**: Command line flags still work
+7. **Debug Friendly**: Both console and GUI output available
+
+### **Example Output in GUI**
+
+```

+
+The installer now provides a professional, user-friendly interface while maintaining all existing functionality including the two-stage installer updates and comprehensive credential management system.
