# Integrating `card_game` / `klondike` as the Solitaire Core
|
||
|
||
**Context:** A collaborator ([Quaternions](https://git.aleshym.co/Quaternions/card_game)) is building a pure-logic Klondike library in Rust. This document maps what that library currently provides against what Ferrous Solitaire's `solitaire_core` crate requires.
|
||
|
||
**Approach:** Most gaps are closed in Ferrous Solitaire's own `solitaire_core` crate via a wrapper/adapter layer. Gaps 1, 3, and 4 have been addressed upstream. Integration is ready to begin.
|
||

## What Ferrous Solitaire's `solitaire_core` Needs (Gaps)
|
||
|
||
### 1. Scoring — remaining adapter responsibilities
|
||
Ferrous uses **Windows XP Standard** scoring. The exact table already implemented in `solitaire_core/src/scoring.rs`:
|
||
|
||
| Event | Delta | Handled by |
|
||
|---|---|---|
|
||
| Any card → foundation | +10 | `KlondikeStats` / `ScoringConfig::move_to_foundation` ✅ |
|
||
| Waste → tableau | +5 | `KlondikeStats` / `ScoringConfig::move_to_tableau` ✅ |
|
||
| Flip face-down tableau card | +5 | `KlondikeStats` / `ScoringConfig::flip_up_bonus` ✅ |
|
||
| Foundation → tableau | −15 | `KlondikeStats` / `ScoringConfig::move_from_foundation` ✅ |
|
||
| Undo | −15 | `SessionStats` / `SessionConfig::undo_penalty` ✅ |
|
||
| Recycle (Draw-1, after 1st free) | −100 | **Our adapter** — see below |
|
||
| Recycle (Draw-3, after 3rd free) | −20 | **Our adapter** — see below |
|
||
| Score floor | `score.max(0)` always | **Our adapter** |
|
||
| Time bonus on win | `700_000 / elapsed_seconds` | **Our adapter** (not wasm-portable) |
|
||
|
||
Reference: <https://www.solitaireparadise.com/games_list/klondike_solitaire_scoring.html>
|
||
|
||
**Undo penalty:** `SessionState::score()` = `KlondikeStats.score(&scoring) + undos × undo_penalty`. The −15 undo penalty is built into `SessionConfig` (default). Once `GameState` fully delegates to `Session`, our `KlondikeAdapter::score_for_undo()` helper becomes redundant.
|
||
|
||
**Recycle penalty note:** `ScoringConfig::recycle` is a flat delta (default 0 = always free). WXP allows a fixed number of free recycles before charging a penalty, which the upstream library cannot express with a single delta. Our adapter tracks `recycle_count` from `KlondikeStats` and applies the penalty only beyond the free allowance.
|
||
|
||
**In our wrapper:** Configure `ScoringConfig` with the WXP deltas for the five events upstream handles (including undo via `SessionConfig`). Implement recycle-with-free-allowance, score floor, and time bonus in the adapter.
|
||
|
||
### 2. Game Modes
|
||
Ferrous has three modes that alter scoring and undo behaviour:
|
||
|
||
| Mode | Scoring | Undo |
|
||
|---|---|---|
|
||
| **Classic** | Full WXP scoring (table above) | Allowed (−15 penalty) |
|
||
| **Zen** | All deltas suppressed — score stays 0 | Allowed (no penalty) |
|
||
| **Challenge** | Full WXP scoring | **Disabled** — returns an error |
|
||
|
||
Zen is intended for relaxed play where the score does not matter. Challenge is a timed daily puzzle where the no-undo constraint is the difficulty mechanic.
|
||
|
||
**In our wrapper:** Add `GameMode` to `solitaire_core::GameState`; intercept undo calls and scoring deltas in the adapter before delegating to `KlondikeState`.
|
||
|
||
### 3. Solvability Solver *(upstream merged — card_game v0.4.0)*
|
||
`card_game v0.4.0` ships `Session::solve()` — a budget-bounded DFS that returns `Result<Option<Solution<G>>, SolveError>`. `SolveError` has two variants:
|
||
- `MovesBudgetExceeded` — equivalent to our `SolverResult::Inconclusive`
|
||
- `StatesBudgetExceeded` — equivalent to our `SolverResult::Inconclusive`
|
||
|
||
`Solution<G>` contains the winning move sequence as `Vec<StateSnapshot<G>>`; `clean_solution()` removes cycles. `Session::solve()` uses `SessionConfig::solve_moves_budget` and `SessionConfig::solve_states_budget` (defaults: 100 000 each).
|
||
|
||
Our 767-line `solitaire_core::solver` reimplements the full game rules to run the DFS; `session.solve()` replaces it entirely. The solver will be removed once the `Session<Klondike>` is wired into `GameState`.
|
||
|
||
**In our wrapper:** Replace `solitaire_core::solver` with `session.solve()`. Map `Ok(Some(_))` → Winnable, `Ok(None)` → Unwinnable, `Err(_)` → Inconclusive.
|
||
|
||
### 4. `take_from_foundation` House Rule *(upstream merged — v0.3.0)*
|
||
`MoveFromFoundationConfig` is now part of `KlondikeConfig`. When set to `Disallowed`, `is_instruction_valid` blocks foundation → tableau instructions.
|
||
|
||
**Important:** The upstream default is `MoveFromFoundationConfig::Allowed`. Ferrous Solitaire uses the standard rule (foundation cards cannot be moved back) as the default, with the house rule as an opt-in. Our adapter explicitly sets `Disallowed` in the default `KlondikeConfig` and switches to `Allowed` only when the user toggles the house-rule option.
|
||
|
||
**In our wrapper:** Construct `KlondikeConfig { move_from_foundation: MoveFromFoundationConfig::Disallowed, .. }` by default; mirror the user's settings toggle to `Allowed`. No custom intercept needed — `klondike` enforces the rule automatically.
|
||
|
||
### 5. JSON Serialisation / Persistence
|
||
`solitaire_core::GameState` serialises the full mid-game state to JSON via `serde` so the engine can save on exit and restore on launch. `KlondikeState` derives `Clone` + `Eq` + `Hash` but not `Serialize` / `Deserialize`. No upstream changes are needed — this is handled externally.
|
||
|
||
**Current verification (2026-06-01):** `klondike v0.3.0` and `card_game v0.4.0`
|
||
crate manifests expose no `serde` dependency/feature, and source exports no
|
||
serde derives for instruction/state snapshot types. Keep Ferrous'
|
||
`SavedInstruction` bridge in place.
|
||
|
||
**Session history:** `StateSnapshot<G>` stores the pre-move game state and instruction. On load, the session is reconstructed from the serialised snapshot history — no full replay from seed needed.
|
||
|
||
**In our wrapper:** Serialise the `solitaire_core` wrapper struct using newtypes. Define `SavedInstruction` (a `Serialize + Deserialize` mirror of `KlondikeInstruction`) and `SavedStateSnapshot`. Reconstruct `SessionState` from the deserialised history. Schema version field lives on our wrapper.
|
||
|
||
### 6. Typed Move Errors
|
||
`solitaire_core::error::MoveError` returns structured errors the engine uses to trigger UI feedback (wrong-destination toast, stock-empty chime, etc.):
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
GameAlreadyWon
|
||
UndoStackEmpty
|
||
StockEmpty
|
||
InvalidSource
|
||
InvalidDestination
|
||
RuleViolation(String)
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
`KlondikeInstruction` is always constructed by game code from valid entity layout, so invalid moves are only detectable at `solitaire_core`'s construction boundary — the error lives there, not inside `klondike`.
|
||
|
||
**In our wrapper:** `MoveError` variants are generated when `solitaire_core` fails to construct a `KlondikeInstruction` from the player's requested move. No translation of `is_instruction_valid`'s bool return is required; by the time an instruction reaches `klondike`, it is already known to be structurally valid.
|
||
|
||
### 7. Waste Pile as Separate Concept
|
||
Ferrous tracks `PileType::Waste` as a distinct pile. `klondike` folds waste into `Stock` (the face-up half of the stock `Pile`). The engine's UI and scoring logic reference the waste pile directly; the mapping needs to be explicit.
|
||
|
||
**In our wrapper:** Project the face-up half of `klondike`'s stock `Pile` as `PileType::Waste` when building pile snapshots for the engine.
|
||
|
||
### 8. Undo Stack Approach *(resolved — not an issue)*
|
||
`card_game v0.4.0` `Session` uses snapshot-based undo: `SessionState` stores `Vec<StateSnapshot<G>>` where each entry holds the pre-move game state and the instruction. Undo pops the last snapshot and restores state directly — O(1), matching our existing `GameState.undo_stack`.
|
||
|
||
**Resolution:** Use `Session`'s built-in snapshot history. Our `GameState.undo_stack: VecDeque<StateSnapshot>` will be removed once `GameState` is fully migrated to delegate to `Session`.
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
## Integration Path (All work in `solitaire_core`)
|
||
|
||
Steps in dependency order. Upstream issues #10, #11, and the solver are all merged.
|
||
|
||
1. ✅ **Add `klondike = "0.3.0"` / `card_game = "0.4.0"` as dependencies** of `solitaire_core`; `KlondikeAdapter` wraps `KlondikeConfig` and exposes scoring helpers.
|
||
2. **Map pile types** — project `klondike`'s stock face-up half as `PileType::Waste`; expose the same `HashMap<PileType, Pile>` the engine already reads. Wire `Session<Klondike>` into `KlondikeAdapter` (gap 7).
|
||
3. ✅ **Configure `KlondikeConfig`** — set `move_from_foundation: MoveFromFoundationConfig::Disallowed` by default; wire the user's house-rule toggle to `Allowed` (gap 4, upstream).
|
||
4. ✅ **Port scoring** — pass WXP deltas into `ScoringConfig`; `SessionConfig::undo_penalty` handles undo; implement recycle-with-free-allowance, score floor, and time bonus in the adapter (gap 1).
|
||
5. ✅ **Port `GameMode`** — intercept undo + scoring in the adapter based on mode (gap 2).
|
||
6. **Replace solver** — call `session.solve()` with budgets from our `SolverConfig`; map `Ok(Some)` → Winnable, `Ok(None)` → Unwinnable, `Err` → Inconclusive (gap 3, upstream).
|
||
7. **Implement `serde`** — define `SavedInstruction` + `SavedStateSnapshot` newtypes; serialise session history; migrate save-file schema (gap 5).

## Quaternions Upgrade Runbook
|
||
|
||
Use this sequence whenever upgrading `klondike` / `card_game` from the
|
||
Quaternions registry:
|
||
|
||
1. Review upstream changes/releases:
|
||
- <https://git.aleshym.co/Quaternions/card_game>
|
||
- <https://git.aleshym.co/Quaternions/klondike>
|
||
2. Run:
|
||
```bash
|
||
scripts/update_quaternions_deps.sh <klondike_version> <card_game_version>
|
||
```
|
||
3. If the script passes, inspect the resulting `Cargo.lock` diff and land the
|
||
upgrade with the normal PR flow.
|
||
|
||
The script enforces:
|
||
- lockfile update to requested versions
|
||
- `cargo test --workspace`
|
||
- `cargo clippy --workspace -- -D warnings`
|
||
- deterministic replay/debug-API smoke tests in `solitaire_wasm`
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
## What Does NOT Need to Change
|
||
|
||
- The `solitaire_engine` Bevy layer — it works against `solitaire_core` types; changes are isolated to `solitaire_core`.
|
||
- The `solitaire_sync` merge logic — operates on a `SyncPayload` DTO, independent of core card types.
|
||
- The `solitaire_server` — speaks only `SyncPayload` JSON, unaffected.
