Start with TTY approach implementation

## Decision: Start with TTY Approach

Based on our successful down_right_spam.sh test (1708 points\!), we should start with the TTY approach since:

1. **Proven to work** - We already achieved success with simple TTY piping
2. **Incremental path** - Can evolve from simple piping to full PTY control
3. **No external dependencies** - Just Unix PTY/terminal handling
4. **Real-world applicable** - Same technique works for any terminal program

## Implementation Plan

### Phase 1: Basic PTY Control ✅
- [x] Simple input piping (down_right_spam.sh)
- [ ] Create PTY and attach game process
- [ ] Capture raw terminal output

### Phase 2: Output Parsing
- [ ] Parse ANSI escape sequences
- [ ] Extract board state from terminal
- [ ] Track score changes
- [ ] Detect game over state

### Phase 3: Intelligent Control
- [ ] State-based decision making
- [ ] Implement multiple strategies
- [ ] Performance metrics and logging

### Phase 4: Advanced Features
- [ ] Multiple game sessions
- [ ] State visualization
- [ ] Recording and replay
- [ ] Strategy comparison framework

## Next Steps
1. Create minimal PTY controller in Python
2. Test basic I/O capture
3. Build ANSI parser for 2048 output
4. Implement first intelligent strategy

Let's build this incrementally, testing each component in isolation\!
