+# PRD: Ads Sub-System for RulesBot.ai
+
+## Overview
+
+We want to introduce a lightweight ads system to **RulesBot.ai** that enables initial monetization. The system should serve **contextual ads** based on the board game a user is interacting with, or fallback to **general ads** if no contextual ads exist.
+
+Ads will be primarily **Amazon affiliate links** at launch.
+
+The ads system must be manageable through Django Admin and provide basic analytics (impressions and clicks).
+
+
+## Goals
+
+1. **Serve Ads in Context**
+
+   * Ads tied to a specific board game appear on that game’s chat pages.
+   * Generic ads serve as a fallback.
+
+2. **Ad Management**
+
+   * Admins define ads via the Django Admin interface.
+   * Each ad includes:
+
+     * Title (string)
+     * Description (short ad copy)
+     * Image (optional, file or URL)
+     * Link (URL, affiliate-friendly)
+     * Associated Game (optional, foreign key or null)
+     * Weight (integer, controls likelihood of being served)
+
+3. **Tracking & Analytics**
+
+   * Log ad impressions (every time an ad is displayed).
+   * Log ad clicks (when a user clicks the ad link).
+   * Provide reporting (impressions & clicks per ad).
+   * Show analytics in Django Admin (custom dashboard or extended admin list view).
+
+## Non-Goals
+
+* Real-time bidding or external ad networks.
+* User-level ad targeting (beyond game context).
+* Complex A/B testing or frequency capping.
+
+
+## Functional Requirements
+
+### 1. Ad Model
+
+* `Ad`
+
+  * `id` (UUID / AutoField)
+  * `title` (CharField, max 255)
+  * `description` (TextField, short length e.g. 500 chars)
+  * `image` (ImageField or URLField, optional)
+  * `link` (URLField)
+  * `game` (ForeignKey to Game model, nullable, blank = generic ad)
+  * `weight` (PositiveIntegerField, default=1) → higher = more likely to show
+  * `created_at`, `updated_at`
+
+### 2. Serving Ads
+
+* When a user is on a **chat page**:
+
+  1. Check if ads exist for the current game.
+  2. If yes, select one ad randomly using **weighted random selection**.
+  3. If no, select a weighted random generic ad.
+* Ads should be rendered with:
+
+  * Title
+  * Description
+  * Optional image
+  * Clickable link (redirect via tracking endpoint, not direct).
+* Placement: **Sidebar** in MVP. Later integration directly into chat messages.
+
+### 3. Tracking
+
+* **Impressions:** Logged each time an ad is served to a user (raw count, not unique).
+* **Clicks:** Logged when a user clicks an ad (use a redirect endpoint like `/ads/click/<ad_id>`).
+
+**Models**:
+
+* `AdImpression`
+
+  * `id`
+  * `ad` (ForeignKey to Ad)
+  * `timestamp`
+
+* `AdClick`
+
+  * `id`
+  * `ad` (ForeignKey to Ad)
+  * `timestamp`
+
+### 4. Admin Integration
+
+* Ads managed via Django Admin.
+* Inline image upload or URL entry for ad images.
+* Impressions and clicks viewable per ad:
+
+  * Extra columns in the Ads list view (e.g., "Impressions", "Clicks", "CTR").
+  * Custom admin dashboard page with a summary (total impressions, total clicks, CTR).
+
+## Technical Requirements
+
+* **Framework:** Django (follow project’s `agents.md` best practices).
+* **Weighted Random Selection:** Implement custom selection logic using the `weight` field rather than `order_by("?")`.
+* **Tracking:**
+
+  * Impressions logged in the backend when rendering ad context.
+  * Clicks logged via a redirect view that increments clicks then redirects to target URL.
+* **Dashboard:**
+
+  * Either extend Django Admin with a custom report page or add metrics inline in the ads list display.
+
+## User Experience (UX)
+
+* **Frontend Display**:
+
+  * Ad displayed in the **sidebar** of the chat page.
+  * Title bold, description regular text, optional image thumbnail, CTA link.
+* **Click Handling**:
+
+  * Clicking ad always routes through tracking redirect.
+
+## Future Enhancements (Not in MVP)
+
+* Support multiple ad formats (carousel, banner).
+* Add expiration dates for ads.
+* Add frequency capping (limit impressions per user).
+* Import/export ads via CSV/JSON.
+* Placement integration into the chat flow itself.
+
+## Open Questions
+
+* Should CTR thresholds or performance auto-disable low-performing ads?
+* Should weights be capped or free-form integers?
+* Should we add a scheduling option (e.g., only run ad during certain dates)?
+
+## Agent Progress Tracking
+
+The implementing agent should define its own phases and tasks to complete this PRD and add them here.
+
+When done, mark the phase as complete.
+
+### Phase 1: Core Infrastructure ⏳
+- [x] Create ads Django app
+- [x] Create Ad model with all fields (title, description, image, link, game FK, weight)
+- [x] Create AdImpression tracking model
+- [x] Create AdClick tracking model
+- [x] Add ads app to INSTALLED_APPS
+- [x] Create and run migrations
+- [x] Write model tests (Ad, AdImpression, AdClick)
+
+### Phase 2: Ad Selection & Serving Logic ✅
+- [x] Implement weighted random ad selection service

+---
+
+## Implementation Complete ✅
+
+### Summary
+
+The ads sub-system for RulesBot.ai has been successfully implemented according to the PRD specifications. All phases are complete with comprehensive test coverage.
+
+### What Was Built
+
+**Core Models:**

+
+**Frontend Display:**
+- Ads displayed in chat page sidebar
+- Styled ad component with title, description, optional image, and CTA

+
+### Test Coverage
+
+- ✅ Model tests for Ad, AdImpression, AdClick
+- ✅ Service tests for weighted random selection
+- ✅ Service tests for game-specific vs generic fallback logic
+- ✅ View tests for click tracking and redirect behavior

+
+### Future Enhancements (Not in MVP)
+
+As noted in the PRD, these features were intentionally deferred:
+- Multiple ad formats (carousel, banner)
+- Ad expiration dates
+- Frequency capping per user
+- Import/export ads via CSV/JSON
+- In-chat message placement integration
+
+### Files Modified/Created
+
+**New files:**
+- `ads/` - New Django app
+- `ads/models.py` - Ad, AdImpression, AdClick models
+- `ads/services.py` - Ad selection and serving logic
+- `ads/views.py` - Click tracking view
+- `ads/admin.py` - Admin interface with analytics
+- `ads/urls.py` - URL routing
+- `ads/templates/admin/ads_analytics.html` - Analytics dashboard
+- `ads/tests/` - Comprehensive test suite
+
+**Modified files:**
+- `chat/views.py` - Integrated ad serving in chat view
+- `chat/templates/chat/chat.html` - Ad display in sidebar
+
+The implementation follows Django best practices, includes comprehensive test coverage, and meets all functional requirements specified in the PRD.
