    ├─> UpdateCombatState(diff)        // Phase 2: State
    ├─> if (IsInCombat())              // Phase 3: Combat (NO GROUP CHECK)
    │   └─> OnCombatUpdate(diff)       //   ✅ ALL bots in combat
    ├─> UpdateGroupInvitations(diff)   // Phase 4: Invites
    ├─> if (!IsInCombat() && !IsFollowing())
    │   └─> UpdateIdleBehaviors(diff)  // Phase 5: Idle

## Architecture Summary

### Design Patterns Used

**Phase 2.1 (BehaviorManager)**:
- Template Method Pattern (Update → OnUpdate)
- Strategy Pattern (managers as interchangeable strategies)
- Observer Pattern (atomic state flags for strategies)

**Phase 2.2 (CombatMovementStrategy)**:
- Strategy Pattern (positioning as combat strategy)
- State Pattern (role-based positioning)
- Command Pattern (movement commands to MotionMaster)

**Phase 2.3 (ClassAI)**:
- Template Method Pattern (UpdateAI → OnCombatUpdate)
- Strategy Pattern (class-specific combat strategies)
- Factory Pattern (ClassAIFactory for creation)

### Separation of Concerns

```
BotAI (orchestrator)
├─> Movement (every frame)
│   └─> CombatMovementStrategy (Phase 2.2) - "Where to stand?"
├─> Combat (when IsInCombat)
│   └─> ClassAI::OnCombatUpdate (Phase 2.3) - "What to cast?"
└─> Idle (when not combat/following)
    └─> Managers (Phase 2.4) - "What to do when idle?"
        ├─> QuestManager (Phase 2.1 base class)
        ├─> TradeManager
        ├─> GatheringManager
        └─> AuctionManager
```

---

## Integration Points

### Phase 2.1 → Phase 2.4
BehaviorManager base class will be used by:
- QuestManager (refactor existing)
- TradeManager (new)
- GatheringManager (new)
- AuctionManager (new)

### Phase 2.2 → BotAI
CombatMovementStrategy integrates with:
- BotAI::UpdateStrategies() - Strategy pattern
- MotionMaster - Movement commands
- PathGenerator - Reachability checks

### Phase 2.3 → ClassAI
OnCombatUpdate() integrates with:
- BotAI::UpdateAI() - Called when IsInCombat()
- ClassAI subclasses - All 13 classes implement UpdateRotation()

---

## Next Steps

### Phase 2.4: Refactor Managers (Immediate)

**Objective**: Replace Automation singletons with BehaviorManager pattern

**Tasks**:
1. Create QuestManager inheriting from BehaviorManager
2. Create TradeManager inheriting from BehaviorManager
3. Create GatheringManager inheriting from BehaviorManager
4. Create AuctionManager inheriting from BehaviorManager
5. Delete 8 Automation singleton files (~2000 lines)
6. Update BotAI::UpdateManagers() to use new managers
7. Test manager throttling and atomic state queries
8. Verify performance targets (<0.1% CPU per bot)

**Estimated Duration**: 2 weeks

**Deliverables**:
- 4 new manager classes
- Delete 8 old singleton files
- Update BotAI integration
- Unit tests for each manager
- Performance validation

### Phase 2.5: Update IdleStrategy (Short-Term)

**Objective**: Replace Automation::instance() with manager state queries

**Tasks**:
1. Remove all Automation singleton calls from IdleStrategy
2. Replace with BotAI->GetQuestManager()->HasActiveQuests() atomic queries
3. Eliminate throttling timers (use manager state instead)
4. Test observer pattern performance
5. Achieve <0.1ms per update target

**Estimated Duration**: 1 week

### Phase 2.6-2.8 (Medium-Term)
- **Phase 2.6**: Integration testing (1 week)
- **Phase 2.7**: Cleanup & consolidation (2-3 weeks)
- **Phase 2.8**: Final documentation (1 week)

---

## Known Issues & Limitations

### Phase 2.2 Limitations

**1. Talent Tree Detection (Minor)**
- IsTankSpec() and IsHealerSpec() return false (stubs)
- Uses class-based role defaults instead
- API Player::GetPrimaryTalentTree() not confirmed for 3.3.5a
- Impact: Minimal (class defaults work for most cases)
- Future: Implement via Player::GetTalentSpec() when API confirmed

**2. Advanced Positioning (Future Enhancement)**
- Current: Basic distance + angle positioning
- Future: Interrupt positioning, spread/stack mechanics, boss-specific overrides

**3. Mechanic Detection (Future Enhancement)**
- Current: AreaTrigger and DynamicObject detection
- Future: Spell cast prediction, ground effect prediction, boss ability database

### No Critical Issues
- ✅ All phases compile successfully
- ✅ All performance targets met
- ✅ No blocking bugs identified
