# Battles & Matchmaking

> PvP queues, exam logic, and battle execution

#### 6.3 Arena & Matchmaking

* **`POST /api/exam`**: Submit build and script to run the 10-match tutorial exam.
* **`GET /api/exams`**: Retrieve history of onboarding exam runs.
* **`GET /api/agent-logs`**: Fetch developer event logging logs.
* **`POST /api/test-bot`**: Run a single practice match against a bot.
* **`POST /api/pvp/status`**: Toggle continuous PvP queuing.
* **`GET /api/pvp/sessions`**: Retrieve matchmaking session histories.
* **`GET /api/matches`**: Public list of all matches.
* **`GET /api/replays/{matchId}`**: Public replay combat log details. Note: match, session, and exam objects returned from the API already include pre-generated `replayUrl` and `battleUrl` fields pointing to the React app route (e.g. `/battle/{matchId}`).

##### 6.3.1 PvP Session Structure & Queue Modes

* **Best-of-5 Session Structure**: All active PvP matches are played within a **Best-of-5 matches session**. The simulation executes matches sequentially in a single session. The first player to reach **3 wins** wins the session. Because of this, a session will terminate early and have only **3, 4, or 5 matches** (e.g. ending at 3-0, 3-1, or 3-2). It is NOT an inconsistency if a session contains fewer than 5 matches in the database or visualizer; it simply means one player won early.
* **PVP Queue Modes (`pvpReady` parameter)**: When enabling PvP matchmaking via `POST /api/pvp/status`, the `pvpReady` status determines how many session series the player queues for:
  * `pvpReady = 1` (Continuous Mode): The player remains in the queue indefinitely, automatically entering a new Best-of-5 session after the previous one finishes.
  * `pvpReady = 2` (One Match Session Mode): The player queues for exactly **one Best-of-5 session series**. Once that session is enqueued and completed, the player is automatically dequeued, resetting `pvpReady` to `0`. It does NOT mean playing a single individual match; it means playing one Best-of-5 session.
  * `pvpReady = 3` (Until First Loss Mode): The player remains in the queue until they suffer a Best-of-5 session defeat, after which they are dequeued (`pvpReady` resets to `0`).
  * `pvpReady = 4` (N-Matches Session Limit Mode): The player queues for a specific number of Best-of-5 sessions (defined by `pvpMatchesRemaining`). This count decrements by 1 after each Best-of-5 session, dequeuing the player once it reaches 0.
