 ### 2. Leaderboard wiring gaps
-- **Best-score auto-post missing.** `POST /api/sync/push` merges stats/achievements/
-  progress but never touches the `leaderboard` table. Players who opt in never
-  have their `best_time_secs` / `best_score` updated automatically. Fix: update
-  the leaderboard row inside the server's sync push handler (or on `GameWonEvent`
-  via a new async task in `sync_plugin`). **Requires DB schema confirmation.**
+- [x] **Best-score auto-post.** Done (`303c78a`): `update_leaderboard_if_opted_in`
+  called from both first-push and merge paths in `sync.rs`; uses SQLite `MIN`/`MAX`
+  in the UPDATE so scores never regress on stale data.
 - [x] **Display name = username.** Done (`03be4fc`): `leaderboard_display_name:
   Option<String>` added to `Settings`; editor modal in leaderboard panel; persists
   to `settings.json`; `handle_opt_in_button` prefers custom name over username.
