AltSportsLeagues.ai Technical Architecture

System Overview

AltSportsLeagues.ai is a cloud-native, AI-powered sports intelligence platform built on a dual-database architecture combining Supabase for operational data and Firebase for scalable analytics. The system employs Claude.ai-inspired agent orchestration patterns and retrieval-first architecture principles to deliver intelligent insights for alternative sports leagues.

Core Architecture Principles

Retrieval-First Design

Following Claude.ai's "Retrieval Over Generation" philosophy:

interface RetrievalFirstArchitecture {
  // Prioritize finding existing solutions over creating new ones
  pattern_recognition: {
    similarity_search: VectorSimilarity;
    template_matching: TemplateEngine;
    composition_engine: ComponentAssembler;
  };
 
  // Minimize AI generation, maximize reuse
  generation_minimization: {
    component_reuse: ComponentLibrary;
    pattern_application: PatternMatcher;
    incremental_building: IncrementalAssembler;
  };
 
  // Continuous learning from successful implementations
  learning_loop: {
    success_pattern_storage: PatternStore;
    feedback_integration: FeedbackEngine;
    model_refinement: ModelUpdater;
  };
}

Agent Orchestration Patterns

Multi-agent system inspired by Claude.ai's collaborative intelligence:

class AgentOrchestrator {
  private agents = {
    business_analyst: new BusinessAnalystAgent(),
    technical_architect: new TechnicalArchitectAgent(),
    data_scientist: new DataScientistAgent(),
    partnership_specialist: new PartnershipSpecialistAgent(),
    risk_assessor: new RiskAssessmentAgent()
  };
 
  async processBusinessQuery(query: BusinessQuery): Promise<BusinessResponse> {
    // Intelligent agent routing based on query characteristics
    const primaryAgent = await this.routeQueryToAgent(query);
    const supportingAgents = await this.identifySupportingAgents(query);
 
    // Collaborative processing
    const primaryResult = await primaryAgent.process(query);
    const supportingInsights = await Promise.all(
      supportingAgents.map(agent => agent.provideInsights(query, primaryResult))
    );
 
    // Synthesis and final response
    return await this.synthesizeResponse(primaryResult, supportingInsights);
  }
}

Database Architecture

Dual-Database Strategy

Supabase (Operational Data)

interface SupabaseSchema {
  // Real-time operational data
  leagues: {
    id: string;
    name: string;
    sport_type: string;
    operational_data: OperationalMetrics;
    real_time_status: LiveStatus;
  };
 
  partnerships: {
    id: string;
    league_id: string;
    partner_id: string;
    deal_terms: DealStructure;
    performance_metrics: PartnershipMetrics;
    status: PartnershipStatus;
  };
 
  users: {
    id: string;
    role: UserRole;
    permissions: PermissionSet;
    preferences: UserPreferences;
  };
}

Key Features:

Row Level Security (RLS) for multi-tenant data isolation
Real-time subscriptions for live updates
PostgreSQL functions for complex business logic
Automatic API generation via Supabase client

Firebase (Analytics & Intelligence)

interface FirebaseSchema {
  // Scalable analytics data
  analytics: {
    league_id: string;
    metrics: AnalyticsMetrics;
    predictions: PredictionData;
    trends: TrendAnalysis;
    timestamp: Timestamp;
  };
 
  intelligence: {
    query: string;
    context: BusinessContext;
    response: IntelligenceResponse;
    feedback: UserFeedback;
    embeddings: VectorEmbeddings;
  };
 
  models: {
    model_id: string;
    type: ModelType;
    version: string;
    performance_metrics: ModelMetrics;
    training_data: TrainingDataset;
  };
}

Key Features:

Global distribution with automatic scaling
Real-time database for live analytics
Cloud Functions for serverless processing
ML Kit integration for on-device intelligence

    game_events: new GameEventIngestion(),
    social_media: new SocialMediaIngestion(),
    market_data: new MarketDataIngestion(),
    partnership_activity: new PartnershipIngestion()
  };
 
  async ingestDataStream(streamType: StreamType): Promise<void> {
    const ingestor = this.sources[streamType];
 
    // Real-time processing
    const stream = await ingestor.connect();
    stream.on('data', async (data) => {
      await this.processAndStore(data);
    });
  }
 
  private async processAndStore(data: RawData): Promise<void> {
    // Validate and normalize
    const normalized = await this.normalizeData(data);
 
    // Store in appropriate database
    if (this.isOperationalData(data)) {
      await this.storeInSupabase(normalized);
    } else {
      await this.storeInFirebase(normalized);
    }
 
    // Trigger intelligence processing
    await this.triggerIntelligencePipeline(normalized);
  }
}

AI Processing Layer

Vector Embedding System

class VectorEmbeddingEngine {
  private embeddings = new OpenAIEmbeddings({
    modelName: 'text-embedding-3-large',
    dimensions: 3072
  });
 
  async embedBusinessData(data: BusinessData): Promise<VectorEmbeddings> {
    // Multi-modal embedding generation
    const textEmbeddings = await this.embedText(data.description);
    const numericalEmbeddings = await this.embedMetrics(data.metrics);
    const categoricalEmbeddings = await this.embedCategories(data.categories);
 
    return {
      text: textEmbeddings,

      ])
    };
  }
 
  async semanticSearch(query: string, context: BusinessContext): Promise<SearchResults> {

    const enhancedQuery = await this.enhanceQueryWithContext(query, context);
 
    // Generate query embeddings
    const queryEmbeddings = await this.embeddings.embedQuery(enhancedQuery);
 
    // Perform vector similarity search
    return await this.vectorStore.similaritySearch(queryEmbeddings, {
      limit: 10,
      includeMetadata: true,
      filter: this.buildContextFilter(context)
    });
  }
}

class IntelligenceSynthesisEngine {
  private claudeProcessor = new ClaudeProcessor();
  private retriever = new RetrievalEngine();
 
  async synthesizeIntelligence(query: string, context: BusinessContext): Promise<IntelligenceResponse> {
    // Retrieve relevant patterns and data
    const retrievedData = await this.retriever.retrieveRelevantData(query, context);
 
    // Apply Claude.ai reasoning patterns
    const reasoning = await this.claudeProcessor.applyReasoningPatterns(retrievedData, context);
 
    // Generate intelligent insights
    const insights = await this.generateInsights(reasoning, retrievedData);
 
    // Validate and refine
    const validated = await this.validateInsights(insights, context);
 
    return {
      insights: validated,
      confidence: this.calculateConfidence(validated),
      reasoning: reasoning.explanation,
      sources: retrievedData.sources,
      recommendations: this.generateRecommendations(validated)
    };
  }
}

// Next.js API Routes with intelligent processing
export default async function handler(
  req: NextApiRequest,
  res: NextApiResponse
) {
  const { query, context } = req.body;
 
  try {
    // Intelligent query processing
