title: Replace waiver failure reason strings with enum codes
type: task
status: draft
description: >-
  Normalize waiver and poach failure reasons from free-form error message strings to a defined set
  of enum codes. Three scripts already have TODO comments for this:
  process-waivers-free-agency-active.mjs, process-poaching-waivers.mjs, and
  process-poaching-claims.mjs. The report route also hard-codes the string 'player is not a free
  agent' for filtering (two TODOs). Define codes in transaction-constants.mjs or a new
  waiver-reason-constants.mjs and update all processing scripts and the report route.
