Use pnpm workspace filters to scope tasks. Examples below are generic; replace the filter with the target workspace name (e.g.
@proj-airi/stage-tamagotchi,@proj-airi/stage-web,@proj-airi/stage-ui, etc.).
- Typecheck
pnpm -F <package.json name> typecheck- Example:
pnpm -F @proj-airi/stage-tamagotchi typecheck(runstsc+vue-tsc).
- Unit tests (Vitest)
- Targeted:
pnpm exec vitest run <path/to/file>e.g.pnpm exec vitest run apps/stage-tamagotchi/src/renderer/stores/tools/builtin/widgets.test.ts - Workspace:
pnpm -F <package.json name> exec vitest rune.g.pnpm -F @proj-airi/stage-tamagotchi exec vitest run - Root
pnpm test:run: runs all tests across registered projects. If no tests are found, checkvitest.config.tsinclude patterns. - Root
vitest.config.tsincludesapps/stage-tamagotchiand other projects; each app/package can have its ownvitest.config.
- Targeted:
- Lint
pnpm lintandpnpm lint:fix- Formatting is handled via ESLint;
pnpm lint:fixapplies formatting.
- Build
pnpm -F <package.json name> build- Example:
pnpm -F @proj-airi/stage-tamagotchi build(typecheck + electron-vite build).
- Favor clear module boundaries; shared logic goes in
packages/. - Keep runtime entrypoints lean; move heavy logic into services/modules.
- Prefer functional patterns + DI (
injeca) for testability. - Use Valibot for schema validation; keep schemas close to their consumers.
- Use Eventa (
@moeru/eventa) for structured IPC/RPC contracts where needed. - Use
errorMessageFrom(error)from@moeru/stdto extract error messages instead of manual patterns likeerror instanceof Error ? error.message : String(error). Pair with?? 'fallback'when a default is needed. - Do not add backward-compatibility guards. If extended support is required, write refactor docs and spin up another Codex or Claude Code instance via shell command to complete the implementation with clear instructions and the expected post-refactor shape.
- If the refactor scope is small, do a progressive refactor step by step.
- When modifying code, always check for opportunities to do small, minimal progressive refactors alongside the change.
- Prefer Vue v-bind class arrays for readability when working with UnoCSS & tailwindcss: do
:class="['px-2 py-1','flex items-center','bg-white/50 dark:bg-black/50']", don't doclass="px-2 py-1 flex items-center bg-white/50 dark:bg-black/50", don't dopx="2" py="1" flex="~ items-center" bg="white/50 dark:black/50"; avoid long inlineclass="". Refactor legacy when you touch it. - Use/extend UnoCSS shortcuts/rules in
uno.config.ts; add new shortcuts/rules/plugins there when standardizing styles. Prefer UnoCSS over Tailwind. - Check
apps/stage-web/src/stylesfor existing animations; reuse or extend before adding new ones. If you need config references, seeapps/stage-web/tsconfig.jsonanduno.config.ts. - Build primitives on
@proj-airi/ui(reka-ui) instead of raw DOM; seedocs/ai/context/ui-components.mdfor the full component API reference andpackages/ui/src/components/Formfor implementation patterns. - When adding or updating components in
packages/ui, updatedocs/ai/context/ui-components.mdto reflect the change (props, slots, emits, description). - Use Iconify icon sets; avoid bespoke SVGs.
- Animations: keep intuitive, lively, and readable.
useDark(VueUse): setdisableTransition: falseor use existing composables inpackages/ui.
- Vitest per project; keep runs targeted for speed.
- For any investigated bug or issue, try to reproduce it first with a test-only reproduction before changing production code. Prefer a unit test; if that is not possible, use the smallest higher-level automated test that can still reproduce the problem.
- When an issue reproduction test is possible, include the tracker identifier in the test case name:
- GitHub issues: include
Issue #<number> - Internal bugs tracked in Linear: include the Linear issue key
- GitHub issues: include
- Add the actual report link as a comment directly above the regression test:
- GitHub issue URL for GitHub reports
- Discord message or thread URL for IM reports
- Linear issue URL for internal bugs
- Mock IPC/services with
vi.fn/vi.mock; do not rely on real Electron runtime. - For external providers/services, add both mock-based tests and integration-style tests (with env guards) when feasible. You can mock imports with Vitest.
- Grow component/e2e coverage progressively (Vitest browser env where possible). Use
expectand assert mock calls/params. - When writing tests, prefer line-by-line
expector assertion statements. - Avoid writing tests for impossible runtime states, such as
expectagainst constants that never change, or asserting object mutations that can only happen inside the same Vitest case setup. - Avoid mocking
globalThisor built-in modules by directly usingObject.defineProperty(...). If needed, usenode:worker_threadsto load another worker and simulate that situation, or build a mini CLI to reproduce and verify behavior. For DOM and Web Platform APIs, prefer Vitest browser mode instead of hard-mocking platform internals. If tests already use those patterns, progressively refactor them.
- Keep JSON Schemas provider-compliant (explicit
type: object, required fields; avoid unbounded records). - Favor functional patterns + DI (
injeca); avoid new class hierarchies unless extending browser APIs (classes are harder to mock/test). - Centralize Eventa contracts; use
@moeru/eventafor all events. - When a user asks to use a specific tool or dependency, first check Context7 docs with the search tool, then inspect actual usage of the dependency in this repo.
- If multiple names are returned from Context7 without a clear distinction, ask the user to choose or confirm the desired one.
- If docs conflict with typecheck results, inspect the dependency source under
node_modulesto diagnose root cause and fix types/bugs.
- Add/modify translations in
packages/i18n; avoid scattering i18n across apps/packages.
- Use/extend UnoCSS shortcuts in
uno.config.ts. - Prefer grouped class arrays for readability; refactor legacy inline strings when possible.
- File names: kebab-case.
- Avoid classes unless extending runtime/browser APIs; FP + DI is easier to test/mock.
- Add clear, concise comments for utils, math, OS-interaction, algorithm, shared, and architectural functions that explain what the function does.
- When using a workaround, add a
// NOTICE:comment explaining why, the root cause, and any source context. If validated vianode_modulesinspection or external sources (e.g., GitHub), include relevant line references and links in code-formatted text. - When moving/refactoring/fixing/updating code, keep existing comments intact and move them with the code. If a comment is truly unnecessary, replace it with a comment stating it previously described X and why it was removed.
- Avoid stubby/hacky scaffolding; prefer small refactors that leave code cleaner.
- Use markers:
// TODO:follow-ups// REVIEW:concerns/needs another eye// NOTICE:magic numbers, hacks, important context, external references/links
- Rebase pulls; branch naming
username/feat/short-name; clear commit messages (gitmoji optional). - Summarize changes, how tested (commands), and follow-ups.
- Improve legacy you touch; avoid one-off patterns.
- Keep changes scoped; use workspace filters (
pnpm -F <workspace> <script>). - Maintain structured
README.mddocumentation for eachpackages/andapps/entry, covering what it does, how to use it, when to use it, and when not to use it. - Always run
pnpm typecheckandpnpm lint:fixafter finishing a task. - Use Conventional Commits for commit messages (e.g.,
feat: add runner reconnect backoff). - For new feature requirements or requirement-related tasks involving
node:*built-in modules, DOM operations, Vue composables, React hooks, Vite plugins, or GitHub Actions workflows, always do deep research for suitable existing libraries or open source modules first. Before choosing any library, always ask the user to choose and help judge which option is right. Never choose generalized utility libraries on your own (for example,es-toolkit, utilities fromgithub.com/unjs, or tiny tools fromgithub.com/tinylib) without explicit user confirmation. If the user is working spec-driven, list candidate choices in a clear and concise Markdown comparison table. - Before planning or writing new utilities/functions, always search for existing internal implementations first. If the logic could become shared utilities, proactively propose that shared approach to users and developers.
These guidelines apply to all TypeScript code across the monorepo:
- Do not create commits during implementation for this spec.
- For implemented modules, use Vitest whenever possible to verify behavior and passing tests.
- During test implementation, every workaround must include a clear and easy-to-understand
// NOTICE:comment for reference. - Use the following workaround comment format whenever a workaround is introduced:
// NOTICE: // Why this workaround is needed. // Root cause summary. // Source/context (file, issue, URL, or node_modules reference). // Removal condition (when it can be safely deleted).
- Prefer type generics wherever possible. Do not use
any. Only useas unknown as <target expected type>when avoiding it is nearly impossible and the type cannot be fixed safely. - For every module export (internal or package-level), include clear
/** ... */JSDoc that explains:- What the function does.
- When to use it.
- What to expect.
- Use the following JSDoc format for exported functions/classes/types:
/** * One-line summary of behavior. * * Use when: * - Scenario A * - Scenario B * * Expects: * - Input assumptions and ordering guarantees * * Returns: * - Output shape and guarantees */
- For functions that include workarounds, include a
NOTICE:explanation. - For
describe,it, and allexpect*usage in tests, include examples by using@example. - For all exported interfaces, especially configurable options, document:
- What each interface/option does.
- When to use it.
- The use cases it is intended for.
@defaultfor every option that has a default value.
- For all runner, CLI, and high-level orchestrator code (exported or not),
/** ... */JSDoc is required and must include a clear ASCII call-stack diagram using{@link ...}references where applicable. - Use this call-stack section format in orchestrator/runner/CLI JSDoc:
/** * ... * * Call stack: * * collectEvalEntries (../runner) * -> {@link createRunnerSchedule} * -> {@link createMatrixCombinations} * -> {@link VievalScheduledTask}[] */
- Wherever math, OS, exec, process, args, networking, files, or directories are involved, add comments explaining the purpose and why the code is needed.
- Prefer
es-toolkitfirst when creating utilities. - For error handling, prefer
@moeru/stdpatterns whenever possible. - For all normalizers (exported or not) that normalize outputs, formats, filenames, or values (excluding config default normalization), add
/** ... */with before/after examples. - Use this normalizer documentation format:
/** * Normalizes <target>. * * Before: * - "ExampleInput" * * After: * - "example-output" */
- Do not move everything into constants. One-time or two-time constants should remain near usage (typically near the top after imports) with clear
/** ... */explaining why. - For configurable options with defaults, prefer
@moeru/stdmerge functions and define defaults as documented objects when possible, instead of broad standalone constants. - For retry, backoff, and limit values, do not use one standalone constant to cover everything.
- Avoid hardcoded Unix/macOS/Windows path literals; prefer path-safe array arguments and cross-platform handling.
- For test cases, do not rely on smoke-only tests. Reproduce bugs/failures before patching, then keep comments explaining root cause and fix rationale.
- Use this root-cause block format in regression tests when relevant:
// ROOT CAUSE: // // If XXXX, some XXX case happens. // This happens because where line ... // // <before-patch behavior/code> // // We fixed this by XXX, XXX, XXX. // <after-patch behavior/code>
- Do not split modules into sections using separators like
========; split into modules instead, except for types/interfaces used nowhere else. - Do not overuse table-driven style. In many cases, keep table arrays inline and map directly with
.map(...). - Prefer early returns, keep functions simple, and limit nesting to one or two levels.
