## 🏗️ Architecture

### **YazeGRPCServer** (formerly UnifiedGRPCServer)

```cpp
class YazeGRPCServer {
 public:
  struct Config {
    int port = 50051;
    bool enable_test_harness = true;
    bool enable_rom_service = true;
    bool enable_canvas_automation = true;  // NEW!
    bool require_approval_for_rom_writes = true;
  };
  
  absl::Status Initialize(
      int port,
      test::TestManager* test_manager = nullptr,
      app::Rom* rom = nullptr,
      app::net::RomVersionManager* version_mgr = nullptr,
      app::net::ProposalApprovalManager* approval_mgr = nullptr,
      CanvasAutomationServiceImpl* canvas_service = nullptr);  // NEW!
};
```

### **Service Stack**

```
YazeGRPCServer (Port 50051)
├── ImGuiTestHarness   [GUI automation]
├── RomService         [ROM manipulation]
└── CanvasAutomation   [Canvas operations] ✅ NEW
```

## 🔧 Technical Details

### **Incomplete Type Solution**

**Problem**: `unique_ptr<CanvasAutomationServiceGrpc>` caused incomplete type errors

**Solution**:
1. Store as `unique_ptr<grpc::Service>` (base class)
2. Factory function returns `grpc::Service*`
3. Destructor defined in .cc file
4. Proto includes only in .cc file

```cpp
// Header: Store as base class
std::unique_ptr<grpc::Service> canvas_grpc_service_;

// Implementation: Factory returns base class
std::unique_ptr<grpc::Service> CreateCanvasAutomationServiceGrpc(
    CanvasAutomationServiceImpl* impl) {
  return std::make_unique<CanvasAutomationServiceGrpc>(impl);
}
```

### **Service Wrapper Pattern**

```cpp
class CanvasAutomationServiceGrpc final : public proto::CanvasAutomation::Service {
 public:
  explicit CanvasAutomationServiceGrpc(CanvasAutomationServiceImpl* impl)
      : impl_(impl) {}

  grpc::Status SetTile(...) override {
    return ConvertStatus(impl_->SetTile(request, response));
  }
  
  // ... 13 more RPC methods ...

 private:
  CanvasAutomationServiceImpl* impl_;
};
```

## 🎯 What's Ready to Test

### **✅ Working Right Now** (No Build Needed)

CLI commands work immediately:
```bash
cd /Users/scawful/Code/yaze

# Test selection
./build/bin/z3ed overworld select-rect --map 0 --x1 5 --y1 5 --x2 10 --y2 10 --rom assets/zelda3.sfc

# Test scroll
./build/bin/z3ed overworld scroll-to --map 0 --x 10 --y 10 --center --rom assets/zelda3.sfc

# Test zoom
./build/bin/z3ed overworld set-zoom --zoom 1.5 --rom assets/zelda3.sfc

# Test visible region
./build/bin/z3ed overworld get-visible-region --map 0 --format json --rom assets/zelda3.sfc
```

### **⏳ After Full Build** (Pending assembly_editor fix)

1. **GUI with gRPC**:
   ```bash
   ./build/bin/yaze --grpc-port 50051 assets/zelda3.sfc
   ```

2. **gRPC Service Testing**:
   ```bash
   # List services
   grpcurl -plaintext localhost:50051 list
   
   # Test Canvas Automation
   grpcurl -plaintext -d '{"canvas_id":"OverworldCanvas"}' \
     localhost:50051 yaze.proto.CanvasAutomation/GetDimensions
   
   # Set tile
   grpcurl -plaintext -d '{"canvas_id":"OverworldCanvas","x":10,"y":10,"tile_id":42}' \
     localhost:50051 yaze.proto.CanvasAutomation/SetTile
   ```

3. **Unit Tests**:
   ```bash
   ./build/bin/yaze_test --gtest_filter="CanvasAutomationAPI*"
   ./build/bin/yaze_test --gtest_filter="TileSelectorWidget*"
   ```

## 🚀 Usage Examples

### **C++ Application Initialization**

```cpp
// Create canvas automation service
auto canvas_service = std::make_unique<CanvasAutomationServiceImpl>();

// Register overworld editor's canvas
canvas_service->RegisterCanvas("OverworldCanvas", 
                              overworld_editor->GetOverworldCanvas());
canvas_service->RegisterOverworldEditor("OverworldCanvas",
                                        overworld_editor);

// Start YAZE gRPC server
YazeGRPCServer grpc_server;
grpc_server.Initialize(50051, test_manager, rom, version_mgr, approval_mgr,
                      canvas_service.get());
grpc_server.StartAsync();  // Non-blocking

// ... run your app ...

grpc_server.Shutdown();
```

### **Python Client Example**

```python
import grpc
from protos import canvas_automation_pb2_grpc, canvas_automation_pb2

# Connect to YAZE
channel = grpc.insecure_channel('localhost:50051')
stub = canvas_automation_pb2_grpc.CanvasAutomationStub(channel)

# Get dimensions
response = stub.GetDimensions(
    canvas_automation_pb2.GetDimensionsRequest(
        canvas_id="OverworldCanvas"
    )
)
print(f"Canvas: {response.dimensions.width_tiles}x{response.dimensions.height_tiles}")

# Set zoom
stub.SetZoom(canvas_automation_pb2.SetZoomRequest(
    canvas_id="OverworldCanvas",
    zoom=1.5
))

# Paint tiles
stub.SetTile(canvas_automation_pb2.SetTileRequest(
    canvas_id="OverworldCanvas",
    x=10, y=10, tile_id=42
))
```
