PR created automatically by Jules for task 12676840877343286951 started by @daggerstuff

Summary by Sourcery

Documentation:

  • Add inline documentation explaining the rationale and probability distribution behind weighted random feedback generation in the simulator.

Summary by cubic

Add inline comments in src/simulator/hooks/useSimulator.ts documenting generateFeedbackType’s weighted probabilities and rationale. Spells out splits (recommended: 70/15/15; otherwise: 30/30/20/20) and clarifies the “magic numbers” simulate non-deterministic client responses to avoid a binary training environment.

Written for commit 6f44e7f. Summary will update on new commits.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Documentation
    • Enhanced inline documentation for simulator response generation to clarify probability distributions and behavior patterns.

Reviewer's guide (collapsed on small PRs)

Reviewer's Guide

Adds explanatory inline comments to document the weighted random feedback-type generation logic and explicit probability distributions in the simulator hook.

File-Level Changes

Change Details Files
Document the rationale and exact probability distribution for weighted random feedback generation in the simulator.
  • Explain that magic-number probabilities are used to simulate non-deterministic, human-like therapeutic responses rather than deterministic outcomes
  • Clarify that recommended techniques increase but do not guarantee positive feedback, avoiding a binary training environment
  • Annotate the probability split for feedback types when a recommended technique is used (70/15/15)
  • Annotate the probability split for feedback types when no recommended technique is used (30/30/20/20)

Hey - I've left some high level feedback:

  • Since the probabilities are now documented and somewhat domain-specific, consider extracting the magic numbers into named constants or a configuration object so that future changes to the distribution are less error-prone and stay in sync with the comments.

Inline docs are clearer, but the hard-coded thresholds and the new percentage comments can diverge over time. Consider moving probabilities into named weights (or a helper) so the logic and documentation stay consistent.

Additional notes (1)
  • Maintainability | src/simulator/hooks/useSimulator.ts:213-213
    The added percentage comments help, but they can easily drift from the actual thresholds (0.7, 0.85, 0.3, 0.6, 0.8) during future edits. Consider encoding the weights as named constants (or a small weighted-pick helper) so the “docs” and the logic can’t diverge.
Summary of changes

What changed

  • Expanded inline documentation in generateFeedbackType(...) to explain why weighted randomness ("magic numbers") is used to simulate non-deterministic therapeutic responses.
  • Added explicit percentage breakdowns for the two probability branches:
    • When a recommended technique is used (70%/15%/15%).
    • When no recommended technique is used (30%/30%/20%/20%).

Pull request overview

Adds inline documentation to generateFeedbackType to clarify the rationale for its weighted random selection and to explain the intended probability distribution behind the numeric thresholds.

Changes:

  • Added explanatory comments describing why weighted randomness (and “magic numbers”) are used for feedback generation.
  • Documented the probability breakdown for feedback outcomes when recommended techniques are (and are not) used.

The probability breakdown comment is placed inside the else if (rand < 0.3) branch, which can read as if that branch itself has a 30/30/20/20 distribution (but it actually returns POSITIVE 100% of the time once inside). Move this comment to the start of the !usedRecommendedTechnique path (e.g., immediately after the closing brace of the usedRecommendedTechnique block / before the first rand threshold check) so it clearly documents the distribution for the whole else-case.

🧹 Nitpick comments (1)

229-238: Relocate the comment for better clarity.

The comment on line 230 describes the probability distribution for the entire else branch (all four cases: POSITIVE, DEVELOPMENTAL, TECHNIQUE_SUGGESTION, ALTERNATIVE_APPROACH), but it's currently placed inside the first condition block (rand < 0.3). This positioning makes it appear as though it only documents the POSITIVE case, which is confusing.

Move the comment to before line 229 to clearly indicate it describes the entire branch structure, similar to how the comment on line 221 is positioned.
