Christoph Wagner 5ad0700b41 refactor: Consolidate repository structure - flatten from workspace pattern
Restructured project from nested workspace pattern to flat single-repo layout.
This eliminates redundant nesting and consolidates all project files under version control.

## Migration Summary

**Before:**
```
alex/ (workspace, not versioned)
├── chess-game/ (git repo)
│   ├── js/, css/, tests/
│   └── index.html
└── docs/ (planning, not versioned)
```

**After:**
```
alex/ (git repo, everything versioned)
├── js/, css/, tests/
├── index.html
├── docs/ (project documentation)
├── planning/ (historical planning docs)
├── .gitea/ (CI/CD)
└── CLAUDE.md (configuration)
```

## Changes Made

### Structure Consolidation
- Moved all chess-game/ contents to root level
- Removed redundant chess-game/ subdirectory
- Flattened directory structure (eliminated one nesting level)

### Documentation Organization
- Moved chess-game/docs/ → docs/ (project documentation)
- Moved alex/docs/ → planning/ (historical planning documents)
- Added CLAUDE.md (workspace configuration)
- Added IMPLEMENTATION_PROMPT.md (original project prompt)

### Version Control Improvements
- All project files now under version control
- Planning documents preserved in planning/ folder
- Merged .gitignore files (workspace + project)
- Added .claude/ agent configurations

### File Updates
- Updated .gitignore to include both workspace and project excludes
- Moved README.md to root level
- All import paths remain functional (relative paths unchanged)

## Benefits

 **Simpler Structure** - One level of nesting removed
 **Complete Versioning** - All documentation now in git
 **Standard Layout** - Matches open-source project conventions
 **Easier Navigation** - Direct access to all project files
 **CI/CD Compatible** - All workflows still functional

## Technical Validation

-  Node.js environment verified
-  Dependencies installed successfully
-  Dev server starts and responds
-  All core files present and accessible
-  Git repository functional

## Files Preserved

**Implementation Files:**
- js/ (3,517 lines of code)
- css/ (4 stylesheets)
- tests/ (87 test cases)
- index.html
- package.json

**CI/CD Pipeline:**
- .gitea/workflows/ci.yml
- .gitea/workflows/release.yml

**Documentation:**
- docs/ (12+ documentation files)
- planning/ (historical planning materials)
- README.md

**Configuration:**
- jest.config.js, babel.config.cjs, playwright.config.js
- .gitignore (merged)
- CLAUDE.md

Raft Consensus Manager

Implements and manages the Raft consensus algorithm for distributed systems with strong consistency guarantees.

Core Responsibilities

  1. Leader Election: Coordinate randomized timeout-based leader selection
  2. Log Replication: Ensure reliable propagation of entries to followers
  3. Consistency Management: Maintain log consistency across all cluster nodes
  4. Membership Changes: Handle dynamic node addition/removal safely
  5. Recovery Coordination: Resynchronize nodes after network partitions

Implementation Approach

Leader Election Protocol

  • Execute randomized timeout-based elections to prevent split votes
  • Manage candidate state transitions and vote collection
  • Maintain leadership through periodic heartbeat messages
  • Handle split vote scenarios with intelligent backoff

Log Replication System

  • Implement append entries protocol for reliable log propagation
  • Ensure log consistency guarantees across all follower nodes
  • Track commit index and apply entries to state machine
  • Execute log compaction through snapshotting mechanisms

Fault Tolerance Features

  • Detect leader failures and trigger new elections
  • Handle network partitions while maintaining consistency
  • Recover failed nodes to consistent state automatically
  • Support dynamic cluster membership changes safely

Collaboration

  • Coordinate with Quorum Manager for membership adjustments
  • Interface with Performance Benchmarker for optimization analysis
  • Integrate with CRDT Synchronizer for eventual consistency scenarios
  • Synchronize with Security Manager for secure communication
