Fix double CREATE TYPE crashes + oversized revision id in moderation migration

0001_initial.py: restore create_type=False on the two inline ENUM column
declarations (world_visibility, asset_type) -- this task's own auto-checkpoint
had accidentally reverted the 2026-08-18 fix (PR #25) while working on an
unrelated file.

0003_add_moderation_tables_and_user_roles.py: same bug pattern, self-inflicted
this time -- added create_type=False to all 8 inline column ENUM declarations
(user_role, target_type x2, reason_category, report_status, resolution,
action_type, appeal_status). Also shortened the revision id from
0003_add_moderation_tables_and_user_roles (42 chars) to 0003_moderation_schema
(23 chars) -- alembic_version.version_num is VARCHAR(32) by default, so the
migration ran to completion and then failed writing its own bookkeeping row.

Verified against a genuinely fresh Postgres container: full chain
(0001 -> 0002 -> 0003) now runs clean, all 8 tables land.

+# Economy — Currency, Marketplace & Creator Payouts — Plan
+
+> **Status:** Planned
+> **Owner:** Platform team
+> **Feature ID:** `economy`
+> **Godot version:** 4.6.2 stable
+> **Backend:** FastAPI + SQLAlchemy (async) + PostgreSQL + Redis
+
+## 1. Overview
+
+This document breaks the **Economy** feature into user stories and right-sized
+implementation tasks. The feature delivers:
+
+- **Virtual currency ("Credits")** — a single, server-authoritative currency
+  with an immutable, append-only transaction ledger.
+- **Premium purchase** — buying Credits with real money through a pluggable
+  payment-provider hook.
+- **Marketplace** — user-generated content (UGC) listings where creators sell
+  items (assets, avatar items, experience passes) to players for Credits.
+- **Creator payouts** — accumulating creator earnings and paying them out to
+  external accounts through a pluggable payout-provider hook.
+- **Godot client** — wallet/transaction history, marketplace browse/buy/sell,
+  and creator payout screens.
+
+The economy is the monetization backbone of the platform. Because it moves
+virtual value between real people, correctness (no double-spend, no lost funds,
+no balance drift) and safety (fraud prevention, moderation, audit) are treated
+as **blocking requirements**, not add-ons.
+
+## 2. Why correctness is the differentiator
+
+The platform is a creator economy (players buy UGC from other players). The
+economy is the highest-risk surface after chat: a single arithmetic or
+concurrency bug can mint or destroy value and irreversibly erode trust.
+Correctness is therefore designed in from the start:
+
+- **One currency, integer units.** Credits are whole-number integers. There are
+  no floats, no rounding, and no client-computed totals.
+- **Append-only ledger.** Every balance change is a row in a `transactions`
+  table with a signed amount, a `balance_after` snapshot, a reference to the
+  event that caused it, and an **idempotency key** so retries cannot double
+  credit or double debit.
+- **Atomic, locked mutations.** Balance changes run in a single database
+  transaction with row locking (`SELECT ... FOR UPDATE`) so concurrent
+  purchases/payouts cannot race.
+- **Escrow hold.** Marketplace proceeds are held in `pending_escrow` for a
+  configurable window before becoming available to the seller, so fraudulent
+  or moderated sales can be reversed without clawing back paid-out funds.
+- **Server-authoritative fees.** The platform commission is computed
+  server-side from a configured rate; the client never supplies the fee or the
+  seller's net.
+
+## 3. Existing constraints (do not re-build)
+
+- **Auth:** JWT bearer tokens; `get_current_user` / `CurrentUser` dependency in
+  `app/dependencies.py`. All economy endpoints reuse this.
+- **DB:** async SQLAlchemy + Alembic; migration `0001_initial` is the head.
+  Existing tables: `users`, `sessions`, `worlds`, `assets`.
+- **Redis:** configured (`REDIS_URL`) but unused so far; adopted here for
+  idempotency short-caching and rate limiting.
+- **Models:** `User` (owner_id), `Asset` (owner_id, is_public, asset_type).
+  Marketplace items reference existing `assets` rows and/or avatar items.
+- **Content moderation:** `docs/architecture/content_moderation.md` defines
+  flag vocabulary, age gate, and moderation actions. Marketplace items and
+  listings must inherit and enforce these rules (see §7).
+- **Client:** Godot 4.6.2, minimal `main_menu.gd`; no economy UI yet.
+
+## 4. Key design decisions
+
+| Concern | Decision |
+|---|---|
+| Currency model | Single virtual currency **"Credits" (CR)**, integer units. One wallet row per user; no fractional amounts. |
+| Ledger | Append-only `transactions` table: signed `amount`, `balance_after`, `reference_type`/`reference_id`, unique `idempotency_key`. |
+| Concurrency | `SELECT ... FOR UPDATE` on the wallet row inside the mutation transaction; never read-modify-write from stale data. |
+| Payments | Pluggable `PaymentProvider` interface with a **no-op default** that simulates a confirmed payment for dev/testing (clearly flagged). Stripe/PayPal later. |
+| Marketplace items | `catalog_items` (what is sold) + `marketplace_listings` (a seller's offer with a price/status). One item can have multiple listings over time. |
+| Purchase flow | Atomic transaction: debit buyer → hold funds in escrow (`pending_escrow`) → grant item. Platform fee computed server-side. |
+| Escrow | Configurable hold window (default 72h) before `pending_escrow` becomes available seller earnings. Refunds during the window reverse the sale. |
+| Fees | Single configurable `MARKETPLACE_FEE_RATE` (default `0.30`). `seller_net = floor(price * (1 - fee_rate))`. |
+| Creator balance | `creator_balances` table: `available` (earned, payable), `pending` (inside an open payout request), `lifetime_earned`. Updated in the same transaction as the sale completion. |
+| Payouts | Pluggable `PayoutProvider.pay()` with a no-op default (simulated external ref). Minimum payout threshold, admin review for large payouts. |
+| Idempotency | Every money-moving request carries a client-generated `Idempotency-Key`; duplicate keys return the original result. |
+| Rate limiting | Redis token-bucket dependency reused from the social feature for purchase/listing/payout endpoints. |
+| Moderation | Listings enforce content flags + age gate; moderators can `delist`/`remove`; fraud/chargeback reversal is an audited admin action. |
+
+## 5. User stories
+
+### US-1 Currency & wallet
+As a player, I can see my Credit balance and transaction history, and the system
+credits/debits my wallet only through server-authoritative events.
+
+**Acceptance criteria**
+- Exactly one wallet per user, created lazily on first use.
+- Balance is always a non-negative integer; no operation can make it negative.
+- Every mutation appends an immutable ledger row with amount, resulting balance,
+  reference, and idempotency key.
+- Retrying a request with the same idempotency key does not double-apply.
+- `GET` endpoints expose current balance and paged transaction history.
+
+### US-2 Premium purchase (buy Credits)
+As a player, I can purchase Credits with real money and have them credited only
+after the payment is confirmed.
+
+**Acceptance criteria**
+- A purchase session is created through the payment provider (or the no-op
+  default) and is idempotent.
+- Credits are granted exactly once, only after a verified provider confirmation
+  (webhook/confirm endpoint), never on client claim.
+- Purchase amounts are bounded and server-defined; clients cannot pick arbitrary
+  prices.
+- Confirmation is idempotent and audited (provider reference recorded).
+
+### US-3 Marketplace listing (sell)
+As a creator, I can list a catalog item for sale at a Credit price and
+manage/remove my listings.
+
+**Acceptance criteria**
+- A listing references a valid `catalog_item` owned by the seller (or an
+  authorized seller).
+- Price is bounded (min/max) and set server-side; status transitions are
+  explicit (`active`, `sold`, `delisted`, `removed_by_moderation`).
+- Only the seller (or a moderator) can update/remove a listing.
+- Listings are searchable/filterable (item type, price range, owner).
+
+### US-4 Marketplace purchase (buy)
+As a player, I can buy a listed item. The purchase is atomic, holds funds in
+escrow, grants the item, and splits the payment between platform and seller.
+
+**Acceptance criteria**
+- A single transaction debits the buyer, holds funds in escrow, and grants the
+  item — no partial states on failure.
+- Platform fee and seller net are computed server-side from the configured rate.
+- After the escrow hold window, funds move from escrow to the seller's
+  available balance.
+- Refunds during the hold window reverse the sale and return funds to the buyer.
+- Concurrent purchases of a one-of-a-kind listing cannot both succeed.
+
+### US-5 Creator payouts
+As a creator, I can view my earned balance, request a payout, and track its
+status; admins can review and approve/reject payouts.
+
+**Acceptance criteria**
+- Available balance is derived only from completed (escrow-released) sales and
+  completed payouts; it never goes negative.
+- Payout requests are bounded (min threshold, max per period) and rate-limited.
+- Large payouts require admin review; all payout requests carry an audit trail
+  (requested by, reviewed by, provider reference, status).
+- The payout provider is called exactly once; idempotent on retry.
+
+### US-6 Godot client
+As a player, I can manage Credits, browse/buy/sell marketplace items, and manage
+payouts from the game UI.
+
+**Acceptance criteria**
+- An API client handles JWT auth, HTTP, and idempotency keys for all economy
+  calls.
+- Dedicated screens: wallet + transaction history, marketplace browse/buy,
+  sell-listing, and creator payout.
+- The client never computes balances, fees, or seller nets — it only displays
+  server responses.
+
+## 6. Task breakdown
+
+Right-sized to 1–3 files / one coherent piece of functionality each. Task IDs
+are sequential for dependency chaining.
+
+| # | Task | Story | Depends on |
+|---|------|-------|-----------|
+| 1 | Wallet & ledger models + Alembic migration (`wallets`, `transactions`) | US-1 | — |
+| 2 | Wallet service (atomic credit/debit, idempotency, locking) + wallet/transactions API | US-1 | 1 |
+| 3 | Premium purchase: `PaymentProvider` interface + purchase/confirm endpoints | US-2 | 1 |
+| 4 | Catalog item & listing models + migration (`catalog_items`, `marketplace_listings`, `creator_balances`) | US-3 | 1 |
+| 5 | Marketplace listing API (create/list/search/update/remove) | US-3 | 4 |
+| 6 | Marketplace purchase service + API (atomic escrow, fee split, item grant) | US-4 | 2, 4, 5 |
+| 7 | Creator payout request models + API (`payout_requests`) | US-5 | 2, 6 |
+| 8 | Payout admin review + `PayoutProvider` + audit | US-5 | 7 |
+| 9 | Marketplace moderation + content-flag/age-gate enforcement | cross-cutting | 5, 6 |
+| 10 | Godot economy API client (auth + HTTP + idempotency) | US-6 | 2 |
+| 11 | Godot wallet & transaction history UI | US-6 | 10 |
+| 12 | Godot marketplace browse/buy UI | US-6 | 6, 10 |
+| 13 | Godot selling & payout UI | US-6 | 5, 7, 10 |
+
+## 7. Phasing
+
+- **Phase 1 (currency + payments):** tasks 1–3. The foundation — ledger and
+  money movement must be rock-solid before anything spends Credits.
+- **Phase 2 (marketplace):** tasks 4–6. Listing and atomic purchase with escrow.
+- **Phase 3 (payouts):** tasks 7–8. Turn released escrow into creator payouts.
+- **Phase 4 (moderation):** task 9. Lock down the marketplace against mature
+  content and abuse.
+- **Phase 5 (client):** tasks 10–13, each landing after its backend dependency.

+
+## 9. Security, anti-fraud & audit
+
+- **Server-authoritative balances/fees:** clients never compute totals; amounts
+  are validated server-side against bounds and the current listing.
+- **Row locking:** wallet and creator-balance mutations use `SELECT ... FOR
+  UPDATE` within one transaction.
+- **Idempotency:** every money-moving endpoint requires an `Idempotency-Key`;
+  duplicate keys return the stored original outcome.
+- **Rate limiting:** purchase, listing, and payout endpoints are token-bucket
+  rate-limited per user.
+- **Escrow & reversibility:** funds are not payable until the hold window
+  elapses; chargebacks/refunds reverse before release.
+- **Moderation:** listings carry the item's effective content flags; mature
+  items require age verification (per `content_moderation.md`); moderators can
+  `delist`/`remove` and trigger audited reversals.
+- **Audit:** the ledger plus `payout_requests` review fields form an append-only
+  audit trail for every movement of value.
+
+## 10. Out of scope for this feature
+
+- Real Stripe/PayPal/KYC integrations (provider interfaces leave the hooks; the
+  defaults are deterministic no-ops).
+- Subscriptions, recurring billing, or premium memberships.
+- Gift cards, promotional codes, or user-to-user Credit transfers.
+- Partial refunds, chargeback disputes, and seller tax/VAT handling.
+- In-world vending machines / scripted economy triggers (future, built on this
+  ledger via the scripting sandbox).
