Major improvements to battleship game feedback accuracy and user experience:
## New Multi-Prompt Feedback System
- Replaced single feedback with 3 specialized prompts: Shot Report, Ship Status, Game Over
- Each prompt has individual metadata filtering to see only relevant data
- Shot Report only sees hit/miss data, Ship Status only sees ship destruction data
- Added STFU token system to suppress empty messages (filtered out automatically)
## Technical Implementation
- Added per-prompt metadata_filter support in YAML structure
- Updated app.py and guarded_ai.py to handle prompt-specific filtering
- Legacy single-prompt system still works with transition-level filtering
- Added comprehensive test suite for feedback system validation
## User Experience Fixes
- Fixed TTS queue blocking JavaScript execution (async promises instead of await)
- Ship Status now correctly reports who destroyed which ship (role confusion fixed)
- Game Over only appears when game actually ends (no more random messages)
- Maintained dramatic storytelling while ensuring factual accuracy
## Battleship-Specific Improvements
- Ship destruction messages only appear when ships actually sink
- Clear separation of concerns: hits/misses vs ship destruction vs game over
- Eliminated false positive ship destruction reports
- Fixed role reversal where wrong player got credit for destruction
The battleship narrator now provides accurate, contextual feedback while preserving the dramatic naval warfare atmosphere.
