 # 의사결정 이력

+## 2026-04-02 v1.4.18
+- 새 창 열기처럼 브라우저 기본 앵커가 충분한 동작은 템플릿 안에서 `window.open`을 직접 부르기보다, 기본 링크 동작에 맡기는 편이 더 단순하고 안전하다고 판단했다.
+
+## 2026-04-02 v1.4.17
+- `editor` 주소는 이전과 현재가 같은 URL 형태를 공유하므로, 여기까지 redirect를 두면 호환성이 아니라 자기 자신으로의 재해석만 반복하게 된다. 이 구간은 별도 레거시 레코드를 두지 않고 현재 라우트 하나로 수용하는 편이 맞다고 판단했다.
+
+## 2026-04-02 v1.4.16
+- 백엔드/DB 장애 상황을 단순 연결 실패처럼 보여주면 사용자가 원인을 잘못 이해하게 되므로, 네트워크 단절과 서버 점검/초기화 실패를 전역 UI에서 분리해서 안내하는 편이 맞다고 판단했다.
+- 이런 장애 안내는 각 화면별 에러 문구를 따로 손보는 것보다 `api` 공통 계층에서 상태를 감지하고 `App` 셸이 한 번에 전환하는 구조가 재사용성과 유지보수 측면에서 더 안전하다고 정리했다.
+
+## 2026-04-02 v1.4.15
+- 실제 운영 DB에서 마지막 500 원인을 먼저 재현해본 결과, 스키마 설계보다 MariaDB의 `SHOW ... LIKE ?` 플레이스홀더 비호환과 부분 마이그레이션 상태 재진입 이슈가 핵심이었으므로, 이 단계에선 구조 변경보다 기동 안정성을 먼저 회복하는 편이 맞다고 판단했다.
+- 마이그레이션 로직은 “처음 실행”뿐 아니라 “반쯤 적용된 상태에서 다시 실행”도 견뎌야 하므로, 컬럼 존재 확인과 조건 분기를 모두 공용 `information_schema` 검사로 모으는 편이 더 안전하다고 정리했다.
+
+## 2026-04-02 v1.4.14
+- 기존 `/games` 주소 호환은 alias보다 redirect가 더 맞다고 판단했다. 이번 단계에선 주소는 유지하되 라우트 파라미터 의미는 항상 `topicId`로 정규화해 Vue Router 경고와 내부 분기를 함께 줄였다.
+- 운영 DB에 직접 `RENAME TABLE`과 컬럼 `CHANGE`를 거는 방식은 실제 환경에서 실패 여지가 커서, 마지막 스키마 전환도 새 topic 스키마를 먼저 만들고 기존 game 데이터를 복사하는 비파괴 마이그레이션이 더 안전하다고 정리했다.
+
+## 2026-04-02 v1.4.13
+- 사용자 표면과 API 이름층까지 `topic/template`로 옮긴 뒤에는, DB 스키마도 실제로 따라오게 해야 이후 유지보수 비용이 덜 쌓이므로 `games` 계열 실명을 `topics` 계열로 마이그레이션하는 편이 맞다고 판단했다.
+- 다만 한 번에 응답 키까지 완전히 끊으면 프런트와 관리자 흐름이 너무 크게 흔들릴 수 있으므로, 이번 단계에서는 실제 저장 스키마는 `topic`으로 옮기고 응답의 `gameId / gameName`은 호환 키로 잠시 함께 유지하는 점진 마감이 가장 안전하다고 정리했다.
+
+## 2026-04-02 v1.4.12
+- 프런트 이름만 바꾸는 단계가 끝난 뒤에는, 백엔드도 새 `/api/topics`, `/api/admin/templates` 경로를 열고 기존 `/games`는 호환용으로 남기는 점진 전환이 가장 안전하다고 판단했다.
+
+## 2026-04-02 v1.4.11
+- 백엔드 `/api/games` 경로를 바로 바꾸기보다, 프런트 API 객체에서 먼저 `topic/template` 의미 이름을 제공하고 호출부를 옮기는 편이 위험이 훨씬 낮다고 판단했다.
+
+## 2026-04-02 v1.4.10
+- 사용자 주소는 이미 `/topics`로 옮기기 시작했으므로, 라우트 이름과 기본 파라미터도 `topicHub / topicId` 기준으로 맞추고 기존 `gameId`는 호환 fallback으로만 남기는 편이 더 자연스럽다고 판단했다.
+
+## 2026-04-02 v1.4.9
+- 경로 전환은 화면마다 문자열을 직접 고치는 방식보다, 공용 경로 헬퍼를 먼저 세워 주제·에디터·로그인 리다이렉트 흐름을 한 기준으로 묶는 편이 이후 리네이밍 비용을 훨씬 줄인다고 판단했다.
+
+## 2026-04-02 v1.4.8
+- 주제 상세 화면 제목은 내부 ID를 잠깐 보여주는 것보다, 로딩 문구를 거쳐 실제 이름으로 자연스럽게 바뀌는 편이 사용자 체감상 더 안정적이라고 판단했다.
+- 주요 목록 화면은 `pageHead` 문법을 계속 통일해 두는 편이, 이후 검색/필터 툴바를 더 붙이더라도 구조를 예측하기 쉽다고 판단했다.
+
+## 2026-04-02 v1.4.7
+- 주제 상세 컬렉션 화면도 즐겨찾기·나의 티어표와 같은 `pageHead` 문법으로 맞춰야, 네비게이션으로 이동하는 주요 화면들의 리듬이 더 자연스럽다고 판단했다.
+- 라우트 전환은 한 번에 `/games`를 없애기보다, 먼저 `/topics`를 기본 진입 경로로 세우고 기존 `/games`는 alias로 유지하는 점진 전환이 더 안전하다고 정리했다.
+
 ## 2026-04-02 v1.4.6
 - 내부 리네이밍 2단계는 관리자 화면처럼 상태와 액션이 많은 영역부터 정리해 두는 편이, 이후 `/games` 라우트와 API 계층을 손볼 때 위험을 줄이는 데 더 유리하다고 판단했다.

 # 할 일 및 이슈

 ## 단기 확인
+- `v1.4.18`에서 관리자 템플릿 요청 카드 썸네일 클릭을 브라우저 기본 새 창 열기로 정리했으므로, 요청 썸네일 클릭 시 오류 없이 새 탭이 열리고 `전체 티어표 관리` 썸네일 모달 동작과도 섞이지 않는지 한 번 더 QA한다.
+- `v1.4.17`에서 주제 컬렉션 카드 클릭 시 에디터 진입 무한 루프를 끊었으므로, 새 티어표 만들기/기존 티어표 열기/공유 링크 열기 세 흐름이 모두 정상 진입하는지 한 번 더 QA한다.
+- `v1.4.16`에서 장애 전용 안내 화면을 붙였으므로, 실제로 `db_init_failed`와 네트워크 차단 상황에서 각각 `서비스 점검 중`, `서버 연결 확인 중` 화면이 기대대로 분기되는지 한 번 더 QA한다.
+- `v1.4.15`에서 `ensureData()`가 실제 운영 DB 설정으로 `ok`까지 통과한 것은 확인했으므로, 이제는 브라우저에서 `/api/auth/me`, `/api/auth/meta`, `/api/topics` 500이 실제로 사라졌는지와 기존 세션 로그인 흐름이 복구됐는지 한 번 더 QA한다.
+- `v1.4.14`부터는 DB 마이그레이션이 rename 대신 복사 기반으로 바뀌었으므로, 실제 운영 DB에서 서버 재시작 후 `topics` 계열 테이블과 `tierlists.topic_id`, `template_requests.source_topic_id/target_topic_id`가 기대대로 채워지는지 먼저 확인한다.
+- 레거시 `/games/...`와 `/editor/:gameId/...`는 redirect로 남겼으므로, 오래된 북마크 진입 후 주소가 `/topics/...`, `/editor/:topicId/...`로 자연스럽게 정규화되는지 한 번 더 QA한다.
+- `v1.4.13`부터 DB 실명도 `topics / topic_items / favorite_topics / topic_id` 기준으로 옮겼으므로, 기존 운영 DB에서 서버 재시작 후 자동 마이그레이션이 한 번만 자연스럽게 수행되는지 먼저 확인한다.
+- 백엔드 응답은 현재 `topicId / topicName`과 `gameId / gameName`을 함께 내려주고 있으므로, 다음 단계에서는 실제 프런트/관리자에서 더 이상 `gameId` fallback이 필요 없는 지점을 확인해 호환 키 제거 순서를 정한다.
+- 티어표 공개 목록, 관리자 전체 티어표 관리, 저장/요청 API는 `topicId`를 우선 받도록 바꿨으므로, 실제 브라우저에서 검색/저장/공유/관리자 필터가 모두 같은 파라미터 체계로 자연스럽게 이어지는지 한 번 더 QA한다.
+- `/api/topics`, `/api/admin/templates` alias를 연 뒤 프런트 호출도 새 경로로 옮겼으므로, 실제 브라우저에서 주제 목록/즐겨찾기/주제 상세/관리자 템플릿 관리가 모두 같은 세션으로 자연스럽게 동작하는지 한 번 더 QA한다.
+- 프런트 API 호출부는 `topic/template` 의미 이름으로 옮겼으므로, 다음 단계에서는 `api.js` 안의 레거시 alias를 얼마나 더 유지할지와 백엔드 API 경로를 실제로 바꿀지 범위를 정한다.
+- 관리자 템플릿/주제 화면과 홈·에디터·즐겨찾기에서 새 API 이름층으로 바뀐 뒤에도 저장, 즐겨찾기, 템플릿 생성, 아이템 정렬 흐름이 자연스러운지 한 번 더 QA한다.
+- `topicHub / topicId`를 기본 라우트 기준으로 세웠으므로, 기존 `/games/...` 북마크와 새 `/topics/...` 주소 양쪽에서 주제 상세와 에디터 진입이 모두 자연스럽게 이어지는지 한 번 더 QA한다.
+- 다음 단계에서는 `api.getGame`, `listGames`, `favoriteGame`처럼 남아 있는 프런트 API 이름을 어느 수준까지 `topic/template` 의미로 감쌀지 정리한다.
+- 경로 헬퍼를 사용자 주요 화면에 연결했으므로, 로그인 리다이렉트·공유 프리뷰·복사본 이동·주제 복귀 흐름이 실제 브라우저에서 모두 같은 주소 체계로 자연스럽게 이어지는지 한 번 더 QA한다.
+- 다음 단계에서는 `router/index.js`의 `gameHub`, `route.params.gameId`, `api.getGame`처럼 남아 있는 프런트 내부 이름도 어디까지 `topic/template` 의미로 감쌀지 범위를 더 좁힌다.
+- 주제 상세 화면 제목은 ID fallback 대신 로딩 문구를 쓰도록 바꿨으므로, 직접 진입·뒤로가기·다른 주제로 연속 이동할 때 헤더가 깜빡이거나 이전 제목을 잠깐 유지하지 않는지 한 번 더 QA한다.
+- 검색 결과 화면도 `pageHead` 구조로 맞췄으므로, 주요 목록 화면들 간 상단 여백과 타이포 리듬이 자연스러운지 한 번 더 비교 QA한다.
+- 주제 상세 컬렉션 화면은 `pageHead` 공통 레이아웃과 `/topics` 기본 경로로 옮겼으므로, 직접 진입·뒤로가기·검색 후 재진입 시 주소와 헤더 흐름이 자연스러운지 한 번 더 QA한다.
+- `/topics/:gameId`를 기본 경로로 세우고 `/games/:gameId`는 alias로 남겼으므로, 다음 단계에서는 에디터/검색/공유 흐름에서 어떤 링크를 새 경로로 더 전환할지 범위를 정한다.
 - 내부 리네이밍 2단계로 관리자 `selectedTemplate / templates / loadTemplate / refreshTemplates` 묶음까지 정리했으므로, 다음 단계에서는 `/games/:gameId` 라우트와 프런트 API 호출부를 어디까지 `topic/template` 의미로 감쌀지 범위를 먼저 정리한다.
 - 화면/문서 층의 용어 정리는 거의 마무리됐으므로, 다음 단계에서는 내부 `gameId / games` 모델을 실제로 옮길지, 아니면 라우트 alias/리다이렉트부터 둘지 점진 전환 순서를 정한다.
 - 관리자 화면까지 포함한 사용자 노출 `게임` 문구를 3차까지 정리했으므로, 실제 운영 흐름에서 뜨는 확인창/토스트/선택 모달까지 표현이 자연스러운지 한 번 더 QA한다.

 # 업데이트 로그

+## 2026-04-02 v1.4.18
+- 관리자 템플릿 요청 카드 썸네일 클릭은 `window.open(...)`을 템플릿 이벤트 안에서 직접 호출하던 구조 때문에 브라우저 새 창 열기 시 `Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'open')`가 날 수 있었고, 이를 제거해 앵커의 기본 새 창 동작만 사용하도록 정리했다.
+
+## 2026-04-02 v1.4.17
+- 주제 컬렉션에서 티어표 카드를 클릭할 때 `Maximum call stack size exceeded`가 나던 원인은 `editor` 레거시 redirect가 새 라우트와 동일한 URL 패턴을 다시 자기 자신에게 redirect하던 구조였고, 불필요한 `editor` redirect 레코드를 제거해 무한 라우팅 루프를 끊었다.
+
+## 2026-04-02 v1.4.16
+- 백엔드나 DB 장애가 났을 때 일반 화면에서 계속 `연결할 수 없어요` 식으로 보이던 흐름을 정리하고, `api` 공통 요청 계층에서 `db_init_failed` 같은 500과 네트워크 실패를 감지해 앱 전체를 점검/연결 확인 화면으로 전환하도록 바꿨다.
+- 이제 데이터베이스 초기화 실패나 서버 내부 500은 `서비스 점검 중`, 네트워크 단절은 `서버 연결 확인 중`으로 구분되어 보이며, 사용자는 일반 페이지 대신 전용 안내 화면과 다시 시도 버튼을 보게 된다.
+
+## 2026-04-02 v1.4.15
+- `db_init_failed`의 직접 원인은 MariaDB에서 `SHOW TABLES LIKE ?`, `SHOW COLUMNS ... LIKE ?` 플레이스홀더를 허용하지 않던 부분이었고, 이를 `information_schema` 조회 기반으로 바꿔 실제 운영 DB에서도 `ensureData()`가 정상 통과되게 고쳤다.
+- 중간 마이그레이션 상태에서 `template_requests.target_topic_id`가 이미 생긴 DB는 중복 컬럼 추가로 다시 실패할 수 있었으므로, 해당 확인도 `columnExists()` 기준으로 바꿔 부분 적용된 DB까지 안전하게 다시 기동되게 정리했다.
+
+## 2026-04-02 v1.4.14
+- `/games/:gameId`, `/editor/:gameId/...` 레거시 주소는 Vue Router alias 대신 redirect로 정리해, `topicId` 기준 라우트와 섞일 때 뜨던 param mismatch 경고를 제거했다.
+- 운영 DB에서 바로 `RENAME/CHANGE`를 치던 초기 마이그레이션은 위험도가 높아, `topics / topic_items / favorite_topics / topic_id` 스키마를 안전하게 만들고 기존 `games` 계열 데이터를 복사해 오는 방식으로 바꿨다.
+- DB 초기화 실패 시 원인을 바로 확인할 수 있도록 백엔드에서 `db_init_failed` 응답 전에 실제 에러를 서버 로그에 남기도록 보강했다.
+
+## 2026-04-02 v1.4.13
+- DB 실명 변경 마지막 단계로 `games / game_items / favorite_games`를 `topics / topic_items / favorite_topics` 기준으로 자동 마이그레이션하도록 정리하고, `tierlists.game_id`, `template_requests.source_game_id/target_game_id`도 각각 `topic_id`, `source_topic_id/target_topic_id`로 옮기게 했다.
+- 백엔드 저장/조회 쿼리는 이제 새 topic 스키마를 기준으로 동작하고, 응답에는 `topicId / topicName`을 기본으로 내려주되 기존 프런트가 바로 깨지지 않도록 `gameId / gameName`도 잠시 함께 유지했다.
+- 티어표 공개 목록, 관리자 전체 티어표 관리, 티어표 저장/요청 API는 `topicId`를 우선 받도록 정리하고 기존 `gameId`는 호환 입력으로만 남겨, 외부 표면과 실제 저장 스키마가 한 단계 더 가까워지게 맞췄다.
+
+## 2026-04-02 v1.4.12
+- 백엔드에 `/api/topics`와 `/api/admin/templates` alias 경로를 추가하고, 주제/템플릿 응답도 `topic/topics`, `template/templates` 키를 함께 내려주도록 정리했다.
+- 프런트의 새 의미 이름은 이제 실제로도 `/api/topics`, `/api/admin/templates`를 타도록 연결해, 경로 이름과 호출 이름이 다시 어긋나지 않게 맞췄다.
+
+## 2026-04-02 v1.4.11
+- 프런트 API 이름층을 한 단계 더 정리해 `listTopics / getTopic / favoriteTopic`, `updateAdminTemplate*`, `searchPublicTierListsByTopic` 같은 의미 기반 이름을 추가하고 실제 호출부도 이 기준으로 옮겼다.
+- 백엔드 경로와 응답 구조는 그대로 유지한 채 프런트에서 읽는 이름만 먼저 바꿔, 다음 단계의 API/모델 리네이밍 부담을 더 줄였다.
+
+## 2026-04-02 v1.4.10
+- 주제 상세 라우트 이름을 `topicHub`로, 기본 경로 파라미터를 `topicId`로 바꾸고 기존 `gameId` 주소는 alias로 유지했다.
+- 앱 셸, 주제 상세, 티어표 편집기는 이제 내부에서 `topicId`를 우선 읽고, 레거시 주소로 들어온 경우에만 `gameId` fallback을 쓰도록 정리했다.
+
+## 2026-04-02 v1.4.9
+- `frontend/src/lib/paths.js`를 추가해 주제 진입, 에디터 이동, 로그인 리다이렉트, 공유 프리뷰 주소 같은 사용자 표면 경로를 공용 함수로 모았다.
+- 홈, 주제 상세, 나의 티어표, 즐겨찾기, 검색 결과, 로그인, 설정, 관리자 미리보기, 티어표 편집기까지 이 경로 헬퍼를 쓰도록 바꿔 이후 `topics` 전환을 더 안전하게 이어갈 수 있는 기반을 만들었다.
+
+## 2026-04-02 v1.4.8
+- 주제 상세 컬렉션 화면은 제목을 `topicId` fallback으로 먼저 노출하지 않도록 바꾸고, 주제 전환 시에는 로딩 문구를 거쳐 실제 이름으로 자연스럽게 바뀌게 정리했다.
+- 검색 결과 화면도 공통 `pageHead` 문법으로 맞춰 주요 목록 화면들의 상단 리듬을 한 번 더 통일했다.
+
+## 2026-04-02 v1.4.7
+- 주제 선택 뒤에 들어가는 `Collection` 화면을 공통 `pageHead` 레이아웃으로 다시 맞추고, 검색 입력을 즐겨찾기 화면처럼 상단 우측 툴바로 정리했다.
+- `공개 티어표` 보조 설명 줄은 제거해 헤더 밀도를 줄였고, 사용자 진입 경로는 `/topics/:gameId`를 기본으로 전환하면서 기존 `/games/:gameId`는 alias로 유지했다.
+
 ## 2026-04-02 v1.4.6
 - 관리자 내부 리네이밍 2단계로 `AdminView`와 관련 composable/component의 핵심 상태명을 `selectedTemplate / templates / loadTemplate / refreshTemplates / createTemplate` 기준으로 정리했다.
 - 요청 검토, 템플릿 생성 모달, 아이템 추가/정렬, 템플릿 선택 모달 흐름도 같은 기준으로 맞춰, 관리자 화면을 읽을 때 내부 이름과 사용자 노출 용어가 덜 어긋나게 정리했다.
