First games admin tool. A "Games" tab in the operator console for the Daily Word
answer pool.
* Lookup: is a word real (in the guess dictionary), the right length (5/6), and
already in the pool — instant as you type.
* Add: appends to the pool, enforcing the invariant (alpha · 5/6 letters · in the
guess dict) so the daily answer is always guessable. Remove: drops admin-added
words (curated static ones stay).
* Additions persist in a new word_pool table (survives redeploys, unlike the
baked-in JSON); the daily picker reads static pool ∪ DB additions. Guess dicts
shipped with the package (goodnews/data/words-5/6.json) for server-side
validation. Admin-gated endpoints + tests.
