M3 · Shipped · Meet auto-seed workstream

"What events should this kid run?" answered by the analytics index.

The Athlete Detail page gains a Suggested events section ranking each event the athlete has 2+ appearances in against teammates who've also raced it. The top suggestions are events where the athlete ranks well — exactly what a coach picking varsity entries wants to surface fast. One click hands the (athlete, event) pair off to the M2 Seed Wizard pre-populated.

SETUP

16-athlete roster, fresh archive

This walkthrough drives against the fixture's 16-athlete roster (3 teams). Because the fixture has no historical heat anchors, the analytics index is empty — each athlete's PR list is empty. M3's suggestion section renders its empty-state hint, which is the day-one case worth documenting (operators starting fresh will see this before they've run any meets).

STEP 1

Open the Athlete window

⌘⇧A opens the Athlete Detail window scene. Or pick it from the Window menu — below, with the entry highlighted in blue.

Window menu open with Athlete highlighted in blue.

Window menu · Athlete highlighted · ⌘⇧A.

STEP 2

Pick an athlete

The empty-state picker shows every athlete in the roster. Chip-strip filters at the top narrow by team / group / event (the same chip strip the M2 wizard's roster step uses). The search field free-text matches on name or team.

Athlete picker. 16 athletes across 3 teams. Click any row → the detail view loads.

STEP 3

The Suggested events section

Detail view loads with three sections stacked: Profile header (headshot, name, team, group, bib, total stats) → Personal records (one row per EventKey the athlete has raced) → Suggested events (M3) → Appearance log (every heat the athlete has been in).

Below, the picker is still open (the walkthrough's screenshot stopped here) — but for an athlete with PR data, the Suggested events section renders something like:

Athlete picker view — for the walkthrough fixture, no athlete has PR data so the suggestion section would render its empty-state hint.

Picker open. For an athlete with PR data + teammates racing the same events, the Suggested events section renders ranked rows like the example below.

What the Suggested events section looks like with data:
100m (Sprint) · PR 12.84s · ranks 1 of 8 teammates · team best    [Add to Seed Wizard →]
200m (Sprint) · PR 26.10s · ranks 2 of 6 teammates    [Add to Seed Wizard →]
4×100m Relay (Relay) · PR 11.92s · ranks 3 of 12 teammates    [Add to Seed Wizard →]

Each row shows: event name + category badge (Sprint / Distance / Hurdles / Relay / Field), the athlete's best mark/time, "ranks N of M teammates" caption, a green team best pill when rank 1, and an Add to Seed Wizard button. Tap that button to open M2's wizard pre-populated with this athlete already in the roster + this event already selected on step 2.
