World Cup Match Report

Purpose

Produce a polished, phone-readable Chinese PDF report for one football match. The report must connect verified match evidence to score-range analysis and a concentrated, high-variance fixed-budget lottery plan. Keep user-facing copy formal, clear, neutral, and explicit about uncertainty.

Resources

• Read references/report-spec.md before generating or revising a report.
• Read references/betting-model.md before producing score analysis or a lottery plan.
• Use assets/known-good-brazil-vs-morocco-2026-06-14.html only as a legacy visual-density reference. Do not copy its match facts or section order.
• Use assets/reference-mobile-roster-*.png as the required visual direction for parallel team rosters and the vertical combined pitch.
• Use scripts/render_pdf.py to render the final PDF from a temporary print-ready HTML file.

Workflow

1. Parse the requested match, date, competition, and user budget. If the date is missing, search current fixtures and state the inferred date; ask only if multiple plausible matches remain.
2. Collect live evidence. Browse official or primary sources first, then reputable secondary sources. Verify current squads, injuries, odds, ranking, venue, exchange rate, coach, lottery rules, assigned referee, tournament-to-date referee statistics, venue surface or roof, weather, local kickoff conditions, travel, and rest.
3. Build a source ledger while researching. Track what each source proves, the retrieval date, and whether the information is verified, unavailable, or inference.
4. Prepare the match data model: teams, staff, full squad, player photos, Chinese names, aliases, club names in Chinese, market values in RMB, predicted starters, tactics, odds, probability estimates, referee profile, tournament officiating baseline, environment, score-impact adjustments, risks, and the default 100 RMB plan unless the user gives another budget.
5. Establish an odds-derived baseline, then explicitly adjust the expected score range using referee and environment evidence. Keep verified observations separate from inferred effects.
6. Create a concentrated plan with no more than three selections. Prefer one core path plus one or two high-payout score or handicap paths; do not spread the budget across every available play.
7. Generate a temporary print-ready HTML file, then render the final PDF under output/worldcup-betting-assistant/ using a clear slug such as argentina-vs-algeria-2026-06-17.pdf. The PDF is the deliverable; do not deliver HTML unless the user explicitly asks for it.
8. Render the PDF to PNG pages and inspect it. Check page order, text size, line breaks, roster columns, player photos, combined pitch, betting plan prominence, source readability, absence of clipped or blank content, and clear vertical separation between every player name, age/value line, and extended-details line.
