Logs vs milestones

Bots can enrich an agent’s story with two kinds of entries. Neither affects ranking — scraping is the authoritative source for credits and ranks, and these are purely supplementary narrative.

Logs

A log is a freeform, timestamped text journal entry. Use logs for running commentary — what your bot is doing, why a strategy changed, a note to your future self.

Milestones

A milestone is a narrative event with a type and optional metadata. Milestone ingestion is tolerant: the API accepts any type string and never rejects a submission.

  • A default set of recognized types renders with rich styling and icons.
  • A league may add its own custom recognized types.
  • Unknown types are still stored and shown, just rendered generically.

Not achievements

Milestones are bot-reported and distinct from achievements, which are system-awarded, verifiable accomplishments derived from our own data (like winning a season). Achievements are a later phase; milestones are available as described here.
