+/**
+ * @fileoverview Playcademy Messaging System
+ *
+ * This file implements a unified messaging system for the Playcademy platform that handles
+ * communication between different contexts:
+ *
+ * 1. **Iframe-to-Parent Communication**: When games run inside iframes (production/development),
+ *    they need to communicate with the parent window using postMessage API
+ *
+ * 2. **Local Communication**: When games run in the same context (local development),
+ *    they use CustomEvents for internal messaging
+ *
+ * The system automatically detects the runtime environment and chooses the appropriate
+ * transport method, abstracting this complexity from the developer.
+ *
+ * **Architecture Overview**:
+ * - Games run in iframes for security and isolation
+ * - Parent window (Playcademy shell) manages game lifecycle
+ * - Messages flow bidirectionally between parent and iframe
+ * - Local development mode simulates this architecture without iframes

+ * **PlaycademyMessaging Class**
+ *
+ * This is the core messaging system that handles all communication in the Playcademy platform.
+ * It automatically detects the runtime environment and chooses the appropriate transport method.
+ *
+ * **Key Features**:
+ * 1. **Automatic Transport Selection**: Detects iframe vs local context and uses appropriate method
+ * 2. **Type Safety**: Full TypeScript support with payload type checking
+ * 3. **Bidirectional Communication**: Handles both parent→game and game→parent messages
+ * 4. **Event Cleanup**: Proper listener management to prevent memory leaks
+ *
+ * **Transport Methods**:
+ * - **postMessage**: Used for iframe-to-parent communication (production/development)
+ * - **CustomEvent**: Used for local same-context communication (local development)
+ *
+ * **Runtime Detection Logic**:
+ * - If `window.self !== window.top`: We're in an iframe, use postMessage
+ * - If `window.self === window.top`: We're in the same context, use CustomEvent
+ *
+ * **Example Usage**:
+ * ```typescript
+ * // Send a message (automatically chooses transport)
+ * messaging.send(MessageEvents.READY, undefined)
+ *
+ * // Listen for messages (handles both transports)
+ * messaging.listen(MessageEvents.INIT, (payload) => {
+ *   console.log('Game initialized with:', payload)
+ * })
+ *
+ * // Clean up listeners
+ * messaging.unlisten(MessageEvents.INIT, handler)

+     *
+     * Sends a message using the appropriate transport method based on the runtime context.
+     * This is the main public API for sending messages in the Playcademy system.
+     *
+     * **How It Works**:
+     * 1. If options.target is provided, always use postMessage to that target
+     * 2. Otherwise, analyzes the message type and current runtime context
+     * 3. Determines if we're in an iframe and if this message should use postMessage
+     * 4. Routes to the appropriate transport method (postMessage or CustomEvent)
+     *
+     * **Transport Selection Logic**:
+     * - **postMessage**: Used when target is specified OR when game is in iframe sending to parent
+     * - **CustomEvent**: Used for local/same-context communication
+     *
+     * **Type Safety**:
+     * The generic type parameter `K` ensures that the payload type matches
+     * the expected type for the given message event.
+     *
+     * @template K - The message event type (ensures type safety)
+     * @param type - The message event type to send
+     * @param payload - The data to send with the message (type-checked)
+     * @param options - Optional configuration for target window and origin
+     *
+     * @example
+     * ```typescript
+     * // Send game ready signal (auto-detected transport)
+     * messaging.send(MessageEvents.READY, undefined)
+     *
+     * // Send to specific iframe (parent → game)
+     * messaging.send(MessageEvents.INIT, { baseUrl, token, gameId }, {
+     *   target: iframe.contentWindow,
+     *   origin: 'https://game.example.com'
+     * })
+     *
+     * // Send telemetry data (auto-detected transport)
+     * messaging.send(MessageEvents.TELEMETRY, { fps: 60, mem: 128 })
+     * ```
+     */

+     * **Listen for Messages Method**
+     *
+     * Registers a message listener that will be called when the specified message type is received.
+     * This method automatically handles both postMessage and CustomEvent sources.
+     *
+     * **Why Register Two Listeners?**:
+     * Since we don't know at registration time which transport method will be used to send
+     * messages, we register listeners for both possible sources:
+     * 1. **postMessage listener**: Handles messages from iframe-to-parent communication
+     * 2. **CustomEvent listener**: Handles messages from local same-context communication
+     *
+     * **Message Processing**:
+     * - **postMessage**: Extracts data from `event.data.payload` or `event.data`
+     * - **CustomEvent**: Extracts data from `event.detail`
+     *
+     * **Type Safety**:
+     * The handler function receives the correctly typed payload based on the message type.

+     * @template K - The message event type (ensures type safety)

+     * **Remove Message Listener Method**
+     *
+     * Removes a previously registered message listener to prevent memory leaks and unwanted callbacks.
+     * This method cleans up both the postMessage and CustomEvent listeners that were registered.
+     *
+     * **Why Clean Up Both Listeners?**:
+     * When we registered the listener with `listen()`, we created two browser event listeners:
+     * 1. A 'message' event listener for postMessage communication
+     * 2. A custom event listener for local CustomEvent communication
+     *
+     * Both must be removed to prevent memory leaks and ensure the handler is completely unregistered.
+     *
+     * **Memory Management**:
+     * - Removes both event listeners from the browser
+     * - Cleans up internal tracking maps
+     * - If no more handlers exist for a message type, removes the entire type entry
+     *
+     * **Safe to Call Multiple Times**:
+     * This method is idempotent - calling it multiple times with the same handler is safe.
+     *
+     * @template K - The message event type (ensures type safety)
+     * @param type - The message event type to stop listening for
+     * @param handler - The exact handler function that was passed to listen()
+     *
+     * @example
+     * ```typescript
+     * // Register a handler
+     * const handleInit = (payload) => console.log('Game initialized')
+     * messaging.listen(MessageEvents.INIT, handleInit)

+     *
+     * // Safe to call multiple times
+     * messaging.unlisten(MessageEvents.INIT, handleInit) // No error

+     *
+     * Analyzes the current runtime environment and message type to determine the appropriate
+     * transport method and configuration for sending messages.
+     *
+     * **Runtime Environment Detection**:
+     * The method detects whether the code is running in an iframe by comparing:
+     * - `window.self`: Reference to the current window
+     * - `window.top`: Reference to the topmost window in the hierarchy
+     *
+     * If they're different, we're in an iframe. If they're the same, we're in the top-level window.
+     *
+     * **Message Direction Analysis**:
+     * Different message types flow in different directions:
+     * - **Game → Parent**: READY, EXIT, TELEMETRY (use postMessage when in iframe)
+     * - **Parent → Game**: INIT, TOKEN_REFRESH, PAUSE, etc. (use CustomEvent in local dev)
+     *
+     * **Cross-Context Communication**:
+     * This messaging system now handles ALL communication patterns:
+     * - Game → Parent: Automatic detection and postMessage
+     * - Parent → Game: Use options.target to specify the iframe window
+     * - Local development: Automatic CustomEvent fallback
+     *
+     * **Transport Selection Logic**:
+     * - **postMessage**: Used when game is in iframe AND sending to parent
+     * - **CustomEvent**: Used for all other cases (local development, parent-to-game)
+     *
+     * **Security Considerations**:
+     * The origin is currently set to '*' for development convenience, but should be
+     * configurable for production security.
+     *
+     * @param eventType - The message event type being sent
+     * @returns Configuration object with transport method and target information

+     *
+     * **PostMessage Protocol**:
+     * The postMessage API is the standard way for iframes to communicate with their parent.
+     * It's secure, cross-origin capable, and designed specifically for this use case.
+     *
+     * **Message Structure**:
+     * The method creates a message object with the following structure:
+     * - `type`: The message event type (e.g., 'PLAYCADEMY_READY')
+     * - Payload data: Either spread into the object or in a `payload` property
+     *
+     * **Payload Handling**:
+     * - **Object payloads**: Spread directly into the message (e.g., { type, token, exp })
+     * - **Primitive payloads**: Wrapped in a `payload` property (e.g., { type, payload: true })
+     * - **Undefined payloads**: Only the type is sent (e.g., { type })
+     *
+     * **Security**:
+     * The origin parameter controls which domains can receive the message.
+     * Currently set to '*' for development, but should be restricted in production.
+     *
+     * @template K - The message event type (ensures type safety)
+     * @param type - The message event type to send
+     * @param payload - The data to send with the message
+     * @param target - The target window (defaults to parent window)
+     * @param origin - The allowed origin for the message (defaults to '*')
+     *
+     * @example
+     * ```typescript
+     * // Send ready signal (no payload)
+     * sendViaPostMessage(MessageEvents.READY, undefined)
+     * // Sends: { type: 'PLAYCADEMY_READY' }
+     *
+     * // Send telemetry data (object payload)
+     * sendViaPostMessage(MessageEvents.TELEMETRY, { fps: 60, mem: 128 })
+     * // Sends: { type: 'PLAYCADEMY_TELEMETRY', fps: 60, mem: 128 }
+     *
+     * // Send overlay state (primitive payload)
+     * sendViaPostMessage(MessageEvents.OVERLAY, true)
+     * // Sends: { type: 'PLAYCADEMY_OVERLAY', payload: true }
+     * ```
+     */
+    private sendViaPostMessage;
+    /**
+     * **Send Via CustomEvent Method**
+     *
+     * Sends a message using the browser's CustomEvent API for local same-context communication.
+     * This method is used when both the sender and receiver are in the same window context,
+     * typically during local development or when the parent needs to send messages to the game.
+     *
+     * **CustomEvent Protocol**:
+     * CustomEvent is a browser API for creating and dispatching custom events within the same
+     * window context. It's simpler than postMessage but only works within the same origin/context.
+     *
+     * **Event Structure**:
+     * - **type**: The event name (e.g., 'PLAYCADEMY_INIT')
+     * - **detail**: The payload data attached to the event
+     *
+     * **When This Is Used**:
+     * - Local development when game and shell run in the same context
+     * - Parent-to-game communication (INIT, TOKEN_REFRESH, PAUSE, etc.)
+     * - Any scenario where postMessage isn't needed
+     *
+     * **Event Bubbling**:
+     * CustomEvents are dispatched on the window object and can be listened to by any
+     * code in the same context using `addEventListener(type, handler)`.
+     *
+     * @template K - The message event type (ensures type safety)
+     * @param type - The message event type to send (becomes the event name)
+     * @param payload - The data to send with the message (stored in event.detail)
+     *
+     * @example
+     * ```typescript
+     * // Send initialization data
+     * sendViaCustomEvent(MessageEvents.INIT, {
+     *   baseUrl: '/api',
+     *   token: 'abc123',
+     *   gameId: 'game-456'
+     * })
+     * // Creates: CustomEvent('PLAYCADEMY_INIT', { detail: { baseUrl, token, gameId } })
+     *
+     * // Send pause signal
+     * sendViaCustomEvent(MessageEvents.PAUSE, undefined)
+     * // Creates: CustomEvent('PLAYCADEMY_PAUSE', { detail: undefined })
+     *
+     * // Listeners can access the data via event.detail:
+     * window.addEventListener('PLAYCADEMY_INIT', (event) => {
+     *   console.log(event.detail.gameId) // 'game-456'
+     * })
+     * ```
+     */
+    private sendViaCustomEvent;
+}
+/**
+ * **Playcademy Messaging Singleton**
+ *
+ * This is the main messaging instance used throughout the Playcademy platform.
+ * It's exported as a singleton to ensure consistent communication across all parts
+ * of the application.
+ *
+ * **Why a Singleton?**:
+ * - Ensures all parts of the app use the same messaging instance
+ * - Prevents conflicts between multiple messaging systems
+ * - Simplifies the API - no need to pass instances around
+ * - Maintains consistent event listener management
+ *
+ * **Usage in Different Contexts**:
+ *
+ * **In Games**:
+ * ```typescript
+ * import { messaging, MessageEvents } from '@playcademy/sdk'
+ *
+ * // Tell parent we're ready
+ * messaging.send(MessageEvents.READY, undefined)
+ *
+ * // Listen for pause/resume
+ * messaging.listen(MessageEvents.PAUSE, () => game.pause())
+ * messaging.listen(MessageEvents.RESUME, () => game.resume())
+ * ```
+ *
+ * **In Parent Shell**:
+ * ```typescript
+ * import { messaging, MessageEvents } from '@playcademy/sdk'
+ *
+ * // Send initialization data to game
+ * messaging.send(MessageEvents.INIT, { baseUrl, token, gameId })
+ *
+ * // Listen for game events
+ * messaging.listen(MessageEvents.EXIT, () => closeGame())
+ * messaging.listen(MessageEvents.READY, () => showGame())
+ * ```
+ *
+ * **Automatic Transport Selection**:
+ * The messaging system automatically chooses the right transport method:
+ * - Uses postMessage when game is in iframe sending to parent
+ * - Uses CustomEvent for local development and parent-to-game communication
+ *
+ * **Type Safety**:
+ * All message sending and receiving is fully type-safe with TypeScript.
