## Client Commands and Server Messages

This section describes the WebSocket commands that clients can send to the Pomodoro server and the messages that the server sends to clients during a Pomodoro session.

### Message Format

Both client commands (sent to the server) and server messages (sent to the client) use the JSON format. The structure of these messages are described in the sections below.


### Client Commands

Clients communicate with the server by sending JSON-encoded commands. Each command must include a `command` field specifying the action to perform. Here are the available commands:

| Command  | Action                              | Example Sent by Client            |
|----------|-------------------------------------|-----------------------------------|
| `start`  | Starts a new Pomodoro session       | `{"command": "start"}`            |
| `pause`  | Pauses the current session          | `{"command": "pause"}`            |
| `resume` | Resumes a paused session            | `{"command": "resume"}`           |
| `reset`  | Stops and resets the current session| `{"command": "reset"}`            |

### Server Messages

The server sends JSON-encoded messages to all connected clients to update them on the current state of the Pomodoro session.
These messages contain the following fields:

- mode: Indicates the current phase of the Pomodoro session ("Work", "ShortBreak", "LongBreak", or "none" if no session is running).
- session: The current session number (e.g., 1 for the first work session).
- max_session: The total number of sessions for the current Pomodoro cycle (e.g., 4 if the cycle consists of 4 work/break sessions).
- time_left: The remaining time for the current mode, in seconds (e.g., 900 for 15 minutes).

| Message Type          | Sent by Server                                   | Example                                                              |
| --------------------- | ------------------------------------------------ | ---------------------------------------------------                  |
| Welcome Message       | Upon initial client connection                   | `{"mode": "none", "session": 0, "max_session": 0, "time_left": 0}`   |
| Session Update        | Periodically during a session                    | `{"mode": "Work", "session": 1, "max_session": 4, "time_left": 900}` |
| Session End/Reset     | After session completes or is reset              | `{"mode": "none", "session": 0, "max_session": 0, "time_left": 0}`   |
