## 🛠️ Technical Architecture Changes
### Current Architecture:
```
Channel Points Focus
├── Watch streams for points
├── Make predictions/bets
├── Claim bonus points
└── Drops as secondary feature
```
### Target Architecture:
```
Drops Focus
├── Monitor active campaigns
├── Auto-discover eligible streams
├── Watch for drop progress
├── Claim drops automatically
└── Optimize for maximum drops/time
```
---
## 🔧 Key Technical Changes
### 1. **Priority System Overhaul**
```python
# OLD (Multi-priority)
priority=[Priority.STREAK, Priority.DROPS, Priority.ORDER]
# NEW (Drops-focused)
priority=DropsPriority.CAMPAIGN_URGENCY # Expiring campaigns first
```
### 2. **Campaign Sync Optimization**
```python
# OLD: 30-minute sync interval
sync_interval = 1800 # seconds
# NEW: 5-10 minute interval + smart triggers
sync_interval = 300 # More responsive
trigger_sync_on = ["drop_claimable", "campaign_progress"]
```
### 3. **Streamer Selection Logic**
```python
# OLD: Manual list + priority order
streamers = [Streamer("user1"), Streamer("user2")]
# NEW: Auto-discovery based on campaigns
def get_eligible_streamers(campaign):
"""Discover live streams eligible for campaign drops"""
# Query Twitch directory for game
# Filter by campaign requirements
# Return optimal stream to watch
```
### 4. **Configuration Simplification**
```python
# OLD: Complex multi-feature config
TwitchChannelPointsMiner(
username="user",
priority=[...],
streamer_settings=StreamerSettings(
make_predictions=True,
follow_raid=True,
claim_drops=True,
watch_streak=True,
# ... 10+ more options
)
)
# NEW: Drops-focused config
TwitchDropsMiner(
username="user",
auto_discover_streams=True,
campaign_filters={
"games": ["Overwatch 2", "Valorant"],
"priority": "expiring_first"
},
notifications=["drop_claimed", "campaign_complete"]
)
```
