+# Light & Darkness Implementation Plan
+
+> **For agentic workers:** REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: Use superpowers:subagent-driven-development (recommended) or superpowers:executing-plans to implement this plan task-by-task. Steps use checkbox (`- [ ]`) syntax for tracking.
+
+**Goal:** Dark rooms you can't enter, see, or interact with unless you carry a lit light source (the lamp).
+
+**Architecture:** A `Room.dark` flag and an `Item.light` flag, plus one `Light` helper (`isLit`/`carryingLight`). Four commands gate on it (`go` entry, `look`, `take`, `examine`); the HUD's `light` field is wired to it. Reuses the switchable lamp and is fully backward-compatible (optional flags).
+
+**Tech Stack:** Java 25, Maven, JUnit 5 + AssertJ, Lombok.

+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Run to verify failure**
+
+Run: `mvn -q test -Dtest=LightTest`
+Expected: FAIL — `Item.light` / `Room.setDark` / `Light` missing.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Add `light` to `Item.java`**
+
+Add the field after `description`:
+```java
+    /** Whether this item can serve as a light source (when on, for switchables). */
+    protected final boolean light;
+```
+(`@SuperBuilder` exposes `.light(...)` on every subclass builder; `@Getter` generates `isLight()`. Unset builders default to `false`.)
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Add `light` to `ItemDto.java` and wire `ItemFactory.java`**
+
+In `ItemDto.java` append a component (after `effects`) and update the back-compat constructor:
+```java
+        List<EffectDto> effects,
+        Boolean light
+```
+```java
+    /** Backward-compatible constructor without effects/light. */
+    public ItemDto(String type, String id, String name, String description,
+                   String readText, Boolean initialState, String onText, String offText) {
+        this(type, id, name, description, readText, initialState, onText, offText, null, null);
+    }
+```
+In `ItemFactory.java`, add `.light(Boolean.TRUE.equals(dto.light()))` to **each** of the three builder cases (plain, readable, switchable), e.g.:
+```java
+            case "plain" -> PlainItem.builder()
+                    .id(dto.id())
+                    .name(dto.name())
+                    .description(dto.description())
+                    .light(Boolean.TRUE.equals(dto.light()))
+                    .build();
+```
+(and the same `.light(...)` line before `.build()` in the `readable` and `switchable` cases.)
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Add `dark` to `Room.java`**
+
+Add the import if missing:
+```java
+import lombok.Setter;
+```
+Add the field after `descriptionStates`:
+```java
+    /** Whether this room is dark (needs a light source to enter/see). */
+    @Setter
+    private boolean dark;
+```
+(`@Getter` generates `isDark()`; not a constructor arg, so existing `new Room(id,name,desc)` calls are unaffected.)
+
+- [ ] **Step 6: Add `dark` to `RoomDto.java` and wire `RoomFactory.java`**
+
+In `RoomDto.java` append a component (after `descriptionStates`) and update the back-compat constructor:
+```java
+        List<DescriptionStateDto> descriptionStates,
+        Boolean dark
+```
+```java
+    /** Backward-compatible constructor without the optional state fields. */
+    public RoomDto(String id, String name, String description,
+                   Map<String, String> exits, List<String> items, List<String> npcs) {
+        this(id, name, description, exits, items, npcs, null, null, null);
+    }
+```
+In `RoomFactory.java`, set `dark` after building the shell:
+```java
+    public static Room shellFromDto(RoomDto dto) {
+        Room room = new Room(dto.id(), dto.name(), dto.description());
+        room.setDark(Boolean.TRUE.equals(dto.dark()));
+        return room;
+    }
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 7: Create `game/Light.java`**
+
+```java
+package thb.jeanluc.adventure.game;
+
+import thb.jeanluc.adventure.model.Room;
+import thb.jeanluc.adventure.model.item.Item;
+import thb.jeanluc.adventure.model.item.SwitchableItem;
+
+import java.util.Collection;
+
+/** Decides whether a room is lit, given dark rooms and active light sources. */
+public final class Light {
+
+    private Light() {
+    }
+
+    /** A room is lit if it is not dark, or an active light source is carried or present. */
+    public static boolean isLit(GameContext ctx, Room room) {
+        if (!room.isDark()) {
+            return true;
+        }
+        return hasActiveLight(ctx.getPlayer().getInventory().values())
+                || hasActiveLight(room.getItems().values());
+    }
+
+    /** True if the player carries an active light source (for the HUD). */
+    public static boolean carryingLight(GameContext ctx) {
+        return hasActiveLight(ctx.getPlayer().getInventory().values());
+    }
+
+    private static boolean hasActiveLight(Collection<Item> items) {
+        for (Item it : items) {
+            if (isActiveLight(it)) {
+                return true;
+            }
+        }
+        return false;
+    }
+
+    private static boolean isActiveLight(Item it) {
+        if (!it.isLight()) {
+            return false;
+        }
+        return !(it instanceof SwitchableItem s) || s.isOn();
+    }
+}
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 8: Run tests**
+
+Run: `mvn -q test -Dtest=LightTest`
+Expected: PASS.
+Run: `mvn -q test`
+Expected: PASS — flags default off; existing item/room construction unchanged via back-compat constructors.

+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Run to verify failure**
+
+Run: `mvn -q test -Dtest=DarknessTest`
+Expected: FAIL — no darkness gating yet (entering succeeds, look shows room).
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Gate `GoCommand`**
+
+Add the import:
+```java
+import thb.jeanluc.adventure.game.Light;
+```
+After the exit-lock check and before `ctx.getPlayer().setCurrentRoom(next.get())`, insert:
+```java
+        if (!Light.isLit(ctx, next.get())) {
+            ctx.getIo().write("It's pitch black beyond the doorway — you need a lit light source "
+                    + "(try lighting your lamp with 'use lamp').");
+            return;
+        }
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Gate `LookCommand`**
+
+Add the import:
+```java
+import thb.jeanluc.adventure.game.Light;
+```
+At the very start of `execute`, after fetching the room:
+```java
+        Room room = ctx.getPlayer().getCurrentRoom();
+        if (!Light.isLit(ctx, room)) {
+            ctx.getIo().write("It's pitch black; you can't make anything out. You need a light source.");
+            return;
+        }
+```
+(The existing `Room room = ...` line is already there — replace it with this guarded version, keeping the rest below unchanged.)
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Gate `TakeCommand`**
+
+Add the import:
+```java
+import thb.jeanluc.adventure.game.Light;
+```
+After the `args.isEmpty()` check:
+```java
+        if (!Light.isLit(ctx, ctx.getPlayer().getCurrentRoom())) {
+            ctx.getIo().write("It's too dark to see that.");
+            return;
+        }
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 6: Gate `ExamineCommand`**
+
+Add the import:
+```java
+import thb.jeanluc.adventure.game.Light;
+```
+After the `args.isEmpty()` check:
+```java
+        if (!Light.isLit(ctx, ctx.getPlayer().getCurrentRoom())) {
+            ctx.getIo().write("It's too dark to see that.");
+            return;
+        }
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 7: Wire the HUD `light` field in `Game.java`**
+
+Add the import:
+```java
+import thb.jeanluc.adventure.game.Light;   // same package 'game' — drop if redundant
+```
+(`Light` is in package `game`, same as `Game` — no import needed.) In `publishHud()`, change the `Hud` construction's last argument from `false` to `Light.carryingLight(ctx)`:
+```java
+        ctx.getIo().setHud(new Hud(
+                ctx.getPlayer().getCurrentRoom().getName(),
+                ctx.getPlayer().getGold(),
+                turn,
+                Light.carryingLight(ctx)));
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 8: Run tests**
+
+Run: `mvn -q test -Dtest=DarknessTest`
+Expected: PASS.
+Run: `mvn -q test`
+Expected: PASS (existing command tests use non-dark rooms → `isLit` true → no behaviour change).

+## Task 3: Demo (dark dungeon) + docs + verification
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `src/main/resources/world/items.yaml`, `rooms.yaml`, `docs/enhancement-ideas.md`
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Make the lamp a light source in `items.yaml`**
+
+On the `lamp` item, add `light: true`:
+```yaml
+- type: switchable
+  id: lamp
+  name: Oil Lamp
+  description: An old oil lamp, heavy with fuel.
+  initialState: false
+  light: true
+  onText: The lamp flares to life, casting a warm glow.
+  offText: You snuff out the lamp.
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Make the dungeon dark in `rooms.yaml`**
+
+On the `dungeon` room, add `dark: true` and tweak the description:
+```yaml
+- id: dungeon
+  name: Dungeon
+  description: |
+    A cramped stone room, black as pitch. A rusty generator squats in the corner.
+  dark: true
+  exits:
+    north: kitchen
+  items: [generator]
+  npcs: []
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Mark the mechanic done in `docs/enhancement-ideas.md`**
+
+Under the mechanic-spine section (point 3, "Licht & Dunkelheit"), append a status note:
+```markdown
+> ✅ Umgesetzt (Branch `feature/light-darkness`): `Room.dark` + `Item.light`,
+> `Light`-Helper, Gating in go/look/take/examine, HUD-Licht. Demo: dunkler
+> Dungeon braucht die brennende Lampe für den Generator.
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Full suite + end-to-end console**
+
+Run: `mvn -q test`
+Expected: PASS.
+
+Run:
+```bash
+printf 'go south\ntake lamp\nuse lamp\ngo south\nuse generator\nquit\n' | mvn -q -DskipTests exec:java@run
+```
+Expected: the first `go south` is blocked ("pitch black beyond the doorway"); after `take lamp` and `use lamp` (HUD flips to `light: on`), `go south` enters the dungeon and `use generator` restores the power. No exceptions.
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Commit**
+
+```bash
+git add src/main/resources/world/items.yaml \
+        src/main/resources/world/rooms.yaml \
+        docs/enhancement-ideas.md
+git commit -m "feat(content): dark dungeon needs the lit lamp"
+```
+
+---
+
+## Self-Review notes
+
+- **Spec coverage:** flags + `Light` (T1), command gating + HUD (T2), demo + docs (T3). Fuel/timed light, cross-room radius deferred.
+- **Backward compatibility:** `Item.light` and `Room.dark` default off; `ItemDto`/`RoomDto` keep back-compat constructors; `Room.dark` is not a constructor arg. Existing tests and YAML unaffected (non-dark rooms are always `isLit`).
+- **Type consistency:** `Light.isLit(ctx, Room)` / `carryingLight(ctx)`, `Item.isLight()`, `Room.isDark()/setDark()`, `ItemDto.light`, `RoomDto.dark` used consistently.
+- **Soft-lock safety:** entry-gate model means dark rooms are entered only with light; lit rooms always re-enterable.

+# Spec: Licht & Dunkelheit (Mechanik-Erweiterung)
+
+Stand: 2026-05-31. Kleine Mechanik aus dem Spine (#3 der Mechanik-Liste), die das
+Fundament (Flags/Items) nutzt. Strenge: **Modell B** (Dunkelheit blockiert).
+
+## 1. Kontext & Ziel
+
+Dunkle Räume sollen den schaltbaren `lamp` sinnvoll machen: Ohne aktive
+Lichtquelle kann man einen dunklen Raum **nicht betreten**, nichts sehen
+(`look`), und nichts aufnehmen/untersuchen. Die HUD-Zeile `light: on/off` wird
+endlich verdrahtet.
+
+## 2. Scope
+
+**In Scope:**
+- `Room.dark` (Bool, optional), `Item.light` (Bool, optional).
+- `Light`-Helper: `isLit`, `carryingLight`.
+- Command-Gating: `go` (Eintritt), `look`, `take`, `examine`; HUD-`lightOn`.
+- Demo: Dungeon dunkel → Lampe nötig.
+
+**Out of Scope:** Lampen-Brennstoff/zeitlich begrenztes Licht; Lichtradius über
+Räume hinweg; Zufall.
+
+## 3. Daten (rückwärtskompatibel)
+
+- **`Room.dark`**: `@Setter`-Feld (default `false`), **kein** Konstruktor-Argument →
+  keine Test-Brüche. Vom `RoomFactory` aus `RoomDto.dark` gesetzt. YAML: `dark: true`.
+- **`Item.light`**: `boolean` am abstrakten `Item` (via `@SuperBuilder`), default
+  `false`. Vom `ItemFactory` aus `ItemDto.light` gesetzt. YAML: `light: true`.
+- **Aktive Lichtquelle** = `item.light` **und** (kein Switchable **oder**
+  `SwitchableItem.isOn()`). Die `lamp` leuchtet also nur eingeschaltet.
+
+## 4. Helper `Light` (game)
+
+```java
+static boolean isLit(GameContext ctx, Room room) {
+    if (!room.isDark()) return true;
+    return hasActiveLight(player-inventory) || hasActiveLight(room-items);
+}
+static boolean carryingLight(GameContext ctx);  // aktive Lichtquelle im Inventar
+```
+`hasActiveLight(items)` iteriert; `isActiveLight(item)` = `item.isLight()` &&
+(`!(item instanceof SwitchableItem s)` || `s.isOn()`).
+
+Räume gelten als beleuchtet, wenn sie nicht dunkel sind **oder** eine aktive
+Lichtquelle getragen wird **oder** im Raum liegt.
+
+## 5. Command-Gating (Modell B)
+
+| Command | Verhalten bei dunklem, unbeleuchtetem Zielraum/aktuellem Raum |
+|---|---|
+| `GoCommand` | **Eintritt blockiert**, wenn `!isLit(ctx, target)`: Hinweis-Text, kein Wechsel. (Lichträume bleiben immer betretbar → **kein Soft-Lock**, Rückzug stets möglich.) |
+| `LookCommand` | `!isLit(ctx, current)` → „It's pitch black; you can't make anything out." statt `RoomView` (Fall: Lampe ging im Raum aus). |
+| `TakeCommand` | `!isLit(ctx, current)` → „It's too dark to see that." |
+| `ExamineCommand` | `!isLit(ctx, current)` → „It's too dark to see that." |
+| HUD | `lightOn` = `Light.carryingLight(ctx)` (in `Game.publishHud`). |
+
+Erlaubt im Dunkeln bleiben: `inventory`, `drop`, **`use`** (z. B. Lampe anzünden),
+`quests`, `map`, `help`. So kann man eine getragene Lampe im Dunkeln anzünden.
+
+## 6. Fehlerbehandlung / Soft-Lock
+
+Eintrittssperre statt Innen-Sperre: Man betritt einen dunklen Raum nur **mit**
+Licht. Geht das Licht drinnen aus, sind `look`/`take`/`examine` blockiert, aber der
+Rückweg in einen hellen Raum bleibt (Zielraum hell → `isLit` true). Kein Soft-Lock.
+
+## 7. Demo
+
+- `lamp`: `light: true` (bereits schaltbar; `use lamp` → an).
+- `dungeon`: `dark: true`; der Generator steht dort. Ablauf:
+  `take lamp` → `use lamp` (an) → `go south` (jetzt betretbar) → `use generator`.
+  HUD zeigt `light: on`, sobald die Lampe brennt. Gibt man die Lampe später dem
+  alten Mann, verliert man das Licht (thematisch).
+
+## 8. Testing
+
+- `Light.isLit`: nicht dunkel → hell; dunkel ohne Licht → dunkel; dunkel + getragene
+  brennende Lampe → hell; dunkel + Lampe **aus** → dunkel; dunkel + brennende Lampe
+  **im Raum** → hell. `carryingLight`.
+- Command-Gates: `go` in dunklen Raum ohne Licht blockt, mit brennender Lampe ok;
+  `look`/`take` im dunklen Raum blockt.
+- End-to-End (Konsole): `go south` ohne Licht blockt; `take lamp`/`use lamp`/`go south`
+  betritt; HUD `light: on`.
+
+## 9. Offene Detailfragen (in Implementierung)
+
+- Genauer Hinweis-Text der Eintrittssperre (nennt `use lamp`).
