# Player — `client.player`

`PlayerDomain` (source: `src/domains/PlayerDomain.ts`) — the observable player
profile: player, linked identities, currency wallets and
number counters. Synced under revision key `profile`.

There is no separate wallet service in this SDK. Wallet balances are read from
the profile and are credited/debited server-side (admin wallet adjust, module
functions).

## Surface

`client.player` is a `SyncedState<PlayerProfile>`:

```ts
client.player.value      // PlayerProfile | undefined
client.player.status     // 'idle' | 'loading' | 'ready' | 'error'
client.player.onChange((snapshot) => { /* fires immediately */ });
await client.player.load();
await client.player.reload();  // force refetch
```

## Types

```ts
interface PlayerProfile {
  counters?: { [slug: string]: number };  // client-visible number counters
  identities?: PlayerProfileIdentity[];
  player?: Player;
  wallets?: Wallet[];
}

interface PlayerProfileIdentity {
  createdAt: string;
  provider: string;  // 'device' | 'google' | 'apple' | 'custom' | 'custom:<name>'
  subject: string;
}

interface Player {
  createdAt?: string;
  id?: string;
  language?: string;
  nickname?: string;
  projectId?: string;
  region?: string;
}

interface Wallet {
  balance?: number;
  currency?: string;  // currency code configured in the dashboard
}
```

## Behavior notes

- `counters` holds the values of `number` counters whose definition is
  `client_visible`; hidden counters are left out. Currency counters are in
  `wallets`, not in `counters`. Counter changes bump the `profile` revision.
- Warmed automatically at login (with catalog).
- Kept fresh by the revision poll; call `reload()` after a module function
  that changes wallets or counters.
- All fields are optional on the wire (`?`); code defensively.
- React: `useSyncExternalStore` maps directly onto `onChange` (see the SDK
  README "React recipe").
