M2 — Caffeine Block · Session Card

Planning artifact. A build session opens this file (plus the brain — see §5 Handoff) to know exactly what its cell is, what must exist first, and when it is done. One session builds one (module × surface) cell. Surface order is fixed: backend → web → mcp → chrome → apple → android → desktop (doc 13 §3–§4). The backend session MUST land before any client session for this module.

Purpose

The Caffeine Block engine enforces the protocol rule that no caffeine is consumed during the first 90 minutes after waking (the cortisol-window habit for desk professionals). It is its own ToGO plugin: a pure core/ state machine (AwaitingWake → Blocked → Clear) plus plugin.go registration, a schema migration, and endpoints. The backend is the Single Source of Truth for the 90-minute countdown; every client only renders server state (block active/clear, server-provided deadline) and submits log/wake intents. Classification of a logged drink as clean vs. sugar-based is decided server-side against a drink registry (a DB resource carrying is_sugar_based); clients never categorize. Consistent with Core Opinion 1 the engine is categorical — it records a drink by kind, never milligrams — and consistent with Core Opinion 2 a violation is stated as a protocol fact ("caffeine during block window"), never a physiological claim, and any AI commentary defers to "Consult your doctor."

Engine / feature parameters (exact — do not invent)

ParameterValueSource / status
Block duration90 minutes, starting at the wake event (CaffeineBlockMinutes = 90)Spec-fixed (doc 03 §2.2).
Blocked categoryCaffeine-bearing items — categorical membership, not mgSpec-fixed (Core Opinion 1).
Wake-up anchor sourceOPEN QUESTION. Legacy inferred wake = work_start − 1h (never asked). Manual "I'm awake" log vs. wearable sleep-end (HealthKit / Health Connect) vs. both-with-precedence is undefined.doc 03 §2.2 / §7 item 3; legacy candidate answer (doc 12). PENDING DESIGN.
Drink classification (clean vs. sugar-based)Decided server-side via drink registry column is_sugar_based. Legacy seed: sugar-based = red bull / monster / energy drink / soda / cola; clean = cold brew / matcha / green tea / espresso / black coffee / americano; unknown kinds treated as clean.Legacy precedent seed data (doc 12). Registry is a DB resource; classification is not a client concern.
Daily caffeine-log capLegacy MaxDailyCaffeineLogs = 8Legacy precedent, not spec-fixed — PENDING ratification. Do not treat as a protocol constant until ratified.
Caffeine-log cooldownLegacy CaffeineLogCooldown = 1 minLegacy precedent, not spec-fixed — PENDING ratification.
Violation handlingAccept-and-flag (store the log, record the violation), not reject-at-APIdoc 03 §0.5 / §2.3; global assumption pending ratification.
Fail-safe (no wake logged)Engine does not guess a wake time; caffeine logs made in AwaitingWake are stored and marked unevaluated; user is prompted to log wake. No retroactive violation invented.doc 03 §2.7 — hard invariant.

State machine (doc 03 §2.3): AwaitingWake → (wake event) → Blocked → (90 min elapsed, server timer) → Clear. In Blocked, a caffeine-bearing log is a categorical violation recorded accept-and-flag. Day/cycle reset boundary (Clear → AwaitingWake) is an OPEN QUESTION.

REST surface (names from doc 03 §2.6; note divergence below): POST /v1/engines/caffeine/wake (record wake), GET /v1/engines/caffeine/state (snapshot: { state, block_remaining, wake_time, violations_today }), GET /v1/engines/caffeine/violations (history). Caffeine consumption itself is a log event fanned out through the shared intake pipeline (doc 03 §9.1); the engine evaluates those events via a kernel hook. PENDING DESIGN: exact log endpoint path — doc 03/11 imply the shared intake log, doc 05 uses /api/v1/intake/entries, doc 06 uses POST /caffeine/log. Reconcile in the backend session and document the chosen path in the handoff.

Notes & gotchas

  • Reuse M1's shape. Hydration is the reference engine; copy its plugin layout (core/ + plugin.go + sqlc queries), its /today integration, its client card pattern, and its test harness. M2 sessions should be faster because the pattern is set.
  • Legacy seed data is ready. The legacy drinks table (with name_ar) and the clean/sugar-based kind lists (doc 12) are a ready seed for the drink registry — reuse the classification lists and the admin-CRUD precedent rather than reinventing. Keep is_sugar_based server-side only.
  • Wake anchor is the load-bearing open question (PENDING DESIGN). Do not hardcode a single source. Implement the legacy work_start − 1h inference as an isolated, swappable default so the eventual decision (manual log vs. wearable sleep-end vs. precedence) is a one-place change. Multiple wake events (naps/corrections) precedence and the Clear → AwaitingWake day-reset boundary are also undefined — fail safe, do not guess.
  • Categorical only (Core Opinion 1). An espresso and a cola are equally "caffeine-bearing." Never compute mg, half-life, or tolerance. Log by kind. check/classification is boolean membership against the catalog/registry.
  • No invented certainty (Core Opinion 2). Violations are protocol facts, not physiological claims; AI commentary on caffeine patterns defers to "Consult your doctor."
  • PENDING ratification, not spec-fixed: MaxDailyCaffeineLogs = 8 and CaffeineLogCooldown = 1 min are legacy precedents only — do not encode them as protocol constants until ratified, and if used provisionally, keep them inside core/ and flag them in the handoff.
  • Endpoint-path divergence (PENDING DESIGN): docs 03/05/06/11 name the caffeine log path differently (shared intake log vs. /api/v1/intake/entries vs. /caffeine/log). Reconcile in the backend session and record the canonical path in the handoff so all client sessions use it.
  • Shared intake pipeline liability. Caffeine, GERD, and Trigger Families all evaluate the same intake log event via kernel hooks (doc 03 §9.1). Coordinate the categorical catalog / caffeine_bearing flag with M4 so the drink registry and the food catalog do not fork.
  • NOT-NULL + expand-contract is enforced by CI. Every new column (caffeine state, violations, drink registry) must be NOT NULL with a defined default, and the migration must be expand-contract — the schema lint gate (M0.1) will fail otherwise.
  • MCP stays thin. log_caffeine/today_status return server state verbatim; no protocol logic, no classification, no AI keys. Excluded tools stay excluded.

Handoff reminder

At session end, follow doc 13 §6: write one session-handoff memory to the healthdebug brain (retain, then memory/edit to attach metadata) with source_ref: handoff/M2-caffeine-block/<surface>/<n> (unique — never reuse) and metadata {project:"healthdebug", category:"session-handoff", era:"greenfield", status:"current", surface:"<surface>", module:"M2", title:"Handoff <session-id>", next:"<module+surface>", ...}, using the exact content structure in doc 13 §6. Then update the single build-ledger memory (source_ref: build-ledger, edited in place) so one recall shows the whole frontier and the recommended next session. Any architectural decision or new open question (e.g., the wake-anchor resolution) also gets its own classified memory and, if it changes the plan, an edit to the relevant plan doc.
