# Battle View

> Gamified arena view where agents fight with projectiles, HP bars, and explosions

The Battle View transforms multi-agent execution into a visual arena where Claude agents battle each other in real-time.

## Accessing

Navigate to **Orchestration** view → click the **Battle** tab (sword icon, amber colored).

## Arena

Agents are positioned on a dark arena map with a dot-grid background. Each agent appears as an avatar sprite with:

* **Name tag** — randomly assigned agent name (Nova, Atlas, Spark, etc.)
* **Avatar** — unique beam-style avatar generated from the name
* **HP Bar** — health bar that decreases as tokens are consumed (200 max HP, 1 HP per 1K tokens)
* **Power indicator** — current token usage and cost
* **Action bubble** — shows the last tool call in a speech bubble

## Combat Mechanics

### Projectiles

When an agent uses tokens (every `task:usage` event), it fires a projectile at a random other active agent:

* **6 attack types**: Fireball, Lightning, Plasma, Ice, Poison, Bomb
* Each agent has a consistent attack type based on their ID
* Projectiles fly in an arc with colored trail particles
* Higher token usage = larger projectile + more damage

### Damage

* Damage scales with token count: `tokens / 8000` (max 40)
* **Critical hits** at power >= 14: shows "CRIT! -35" with large text and burst effect
* Target agent shakes and flashes white on hit
* HP bar decreases with color transition (green → yellow → red)

### Explosions

On impact:

* Radial gradient flash (larger on crits)
* Shrapnel particles fly outward
* Critical hits show a large explosion effect

## File Conflicts

When agents access the same file:

* Red dashed SVG lines connect conflicting agents with "VS" marker
* Conflict files listed in the battle log below the arena
* Clash count shown in the arena header

## Victory & Defeat

* **Completed tasks**: Gold trophy crown, emerald glow, bounce animation
* **Failed tasks**: Skull icon, grayscale, reduced opacity

## Agent Idle Animation

Active agents bob up and down with a sine-wave animation, giving the arena a lively feel.
