# CLAUDE.md This file provides guidance to Claude Code (claude.ai/code) when working with code in this repository. ## Project Context Multica is an AI-native task management platform — like Linear, but with AI agents as first-class citizens. - Agents can be assigned issues, create issues, comment, and change status - Supports local (daemon) and cloud agent runtimes - Built for 2-10 person AI-native teams ## Architecture **Polyglot monorepo** — Go backend + TypeScript frontend. - `server/` — Go backend (Chi router, sqlc for DB, gorilla/websocket for real-time) - `apps/web/` — Next.js 16 frontend (App Router) - `packages/` — Shared TypeScript packages (ui, types, sdk, store, hooks, utils) ### Web App Structure (`apps/web/`) The frontend uses a **feature-based architecture** with three layers: ``` apps/web/ ├── app/ # Routing layer (thin shells — import from features/) ├── features/ # Business logic, organized by domain ├── shared/ # Cross-feature utilities (api client) ``` **`app/`** — Next.js App Router pages. Route files should be thin: import and re-export from `features/`. Layout components and route-specific glue (redirects, auth guards) live here. Shared layout components (e.g. `app-sidebar`) stay in `app/(dashboard)/_components/`. **`features/`** — Domain modules, each with its own components, hooks, stores, and config: | Feature | Purpose | Exports | |---|---|---| | `features/auth/` | Authentication state | `useAuthStore`, `AuthInitializer` | | `features/workspace/` | Workspace, members, agents | `useWorkspaceStore`, `useActorName` | | `features/issues/` | Issue state, components, config | `useIssueStore`, icons, pickers, status/priority config | | `features/inbox/` | Inbox notification state | `useInboxStore` | | `features/realtime/` | WebSocket connection + sync | `WSProvider`, `useWSEvent`, `useRealtimeSync` | **`shared/`** — Code used across multiple features. Currently only `api.ts` (SDK singleton). ### State Management - **Zustand** for global client state — one store per feature domain (`features/auth/store.ts`, `features/workspace/store.ts`, `features/issues/store.ts`, `features/inbox/store.ts`). - **React Context** only for connection lifecycle (`WSProvider` in `features/realtime/`). - **Local `useState`** for component-scoped UI state (forms, modals, filters). - Do not use React Context for data that can be a zustand store. **Store conventions:** - One store per feature domain. Import via `useAuthStore(selector)` or `useWorkspaceStore(selector)`. - Stores must not call `useRouter` or any React hooks — keep navigation in components. - Cross-store reads use `useOtherStore.getState()` inside actions (not hooks). - Dependency direction: `workspace` → `auth`, `realtime` → `auth`, `issues` → `workspace`. Never reverse. ### Import Aliases Use `@/` alias (maps to `apps/web/`): ```typescript import { api } from "@/shared/api"; import { useAuthStore } from "@/features/auth"; import { useWorkspaceStore } from "@/features/workspace"; import { useIssueStore } from "@/features/issues"; import { useInboxStore } from "@/features/inbox"; import { useWSEvent } from "@/features/realtime"; import { StatusIcon } from "@/features/issues/components"; ``` Within a feature, use relative imports. Between features or to shared, use `@/`. ### Data Flow ``` Browser → ApiClient (SDK) → REST API (Chi handlers) → sqlc queries → PostgreSQL Browser ← WSClient (SDK) ← WebSocket ← Hub.Broadcast() ← Handlers/TaskService ``` ### Backend Structure (`server/`) - **Entry points** (`cmd/`): `server` (HTTP API), `multica` (CLI — daemon, agent management, config), `migrate` - **Handlers** (`internal/handler/`): One file per domain (issue, comment, agent, auth, daemon, etc.). Each handler holds `Queries`, `DB`, `Hub`, and `TaskService`. - **Real-time** (`internal/realtime/`): Hub manages WebSocket clients. Server broadcasts events; inbound WS message routing is still TODO. - **Auth** (`internal/auth/` + `internal/middleware/`): JWT (HS256). Middleware sets `X-User-ID` and `X-User-Email` headers. Login creates user on-the-fly if not found. - **Task lifecycle** (`internal/service/task.go`): Orchestrates agent work — enqueue → claim → start → complete/fail. Syncs issue status automatically and broadcasts WS events at each transition. - **Agent SDK** (`pkg/agent/`): Unified `Backend` interface for executing prompts via Claude Code or Codex. Each backend spawns its CLI and streams results via `Session.Messages` + `Session.Result` channels. - **Daemon** (`internal/daemon/`): Local agent runtime — auto-detects available CLIs (claude, codex), registers runtimes, polls for tasks, routes by provider. - **CLI** (`internal/cli/`): Shared helpers for the `multica` CLI — API client, config management, output formatting. - **Database**: sqlc generates Go code from SQL in `pkg/db/queries/` → `pkg/db/generated/`. Migrations in `migrations/`. - **Routes** (`cmd/server/router.go`): Public routes (auth, health, ws) + protected routes (require JWT) + daemon routes (unauthenticated, separate auth model). ### Key Packages - **`@multica/sdk`**: `ApiClient` (REST) and `WSClient` (WebSocket) classes. All backend communication goes through here. - **`@multica/types`**: Shared domain types + WebSocket event types (issue:created/updated/deleted, task:*, agent:status, comment:*, inbox:new, daemon:*). - **`@multica/ui`**: shadcn/ui component library with Radix primitives, Tailwind CSS 4, Shiki syntax highlighting for markdown. ### Multi-tenancy All queries filter by `workspace_id`. Membership checks gate access. `X-Workspace-ID` header routes requests to the correct workspace. ### Agent Assignees Assignees are polymorphic — can be a member or an agent. `assignee_type` + `assignee_id` on issues. Agents render with distinct styling (purple background, robot icon). ## Commands ```bash # One-click setup & run make setup # First-time: ensure shared DB, create app DB, migrate make start # Start backend + frontend together make stop # Stop app processes for the current checkout make db-down # Stop the shared PostgreSQL container # Frontend pnpm install pnpm dev:web # Next.js dev server (port 3000) pnpm build # Build all TS packages pnpm typecheck # TypeScript check pnpm test # TS tests (Vitest) # Backend (Go) make dev # Run Go server (port 8080) make daemon # Run local daemon make test # Go tests make sqlc # Regenerate sqlc code after editing SQL in server/pkg/db/queries/ make migrate-up # Run database migrations make migrate-down # Rollback migrations # Run a single Go test cd server && go test ./internal/handler/ -run TestName # Run a single TS test pnpm --filter @multica/web exec vitest run src/path/to/file.test.ts # Run a single E2E test (requires backend + frontend running) pnpm exec playwright test e2e/tests/specific-test.spec.ts # Infrastructure make db-up # Start shared PostgreSQL make db-down # Stop shared PostgreSQL ``` ### Worktree Support For isolated feature testing with a separate database: ```bash make worktree-env # Generate .env.worktree with unique DB/ports make setup-worktree # Setup using .env.worktree make start-worktree # Start using .env.worktree ``` ## Coding Rules - TypeScript strict mode is enabled; keep types explicit. - Go code follows standard Go conventions (gofmt, go vet). - Keep comments in code **English only**. - Prefer existing patterns/components over introducing parallel abstractions. - Unless the user explicitly asks for backwards compatibility, do **not** add compatibility layers, fallback paths, dual-write logic, legacy adapters, or temporary shims. - If a flow or API is being replaced and the product is not yet live, prefer removing the old path instead of preserving both old and new behavior. - Treat compatibility code as a maintenance cost, not a default safety mechanism. Avoid "just in case" branches that make the codebase harder to reason about. - Avoid broad refactors unless required by the task. ## UI/UX Rules - Prefer `packages/ui` shadcn components over custom implementations. - **shadcn official components** → `packages/ui/src/components/ui/` — keep this directory clean; install missing components via `npx shadcn add`, do not mix in business code. - **Shared business components & utils** → `packages/ui/src/components/common/` — reusable project-level UI components (e.g. ActorAvatar) and shared utilities live here. - **Feature-specific components** → `features//components/` — issue icons, pickers, and other domain-bound UI live inside their feature module, not in `packages/ui`. - Use shadcn design tokens for styling (e.g. `bg-primary`, `text-muted-foreground`, `text-destructive`). Avoid hardcoded color values (e.g. `text-red-500`, `bg-gray-100`). - Do not introduce extra state (useState, context, reducers) unless explicitly required by the design. Prefer zustand stores for shared state over React Context. - Pay close attention to **overflow** (truncate long text, scrollable containers), **alignment**, and **spacing** consistency. - When unsure about interaction or state design, ask — the user will provide direction. ## Testing Rules - **TypeScript**: Vitest. Mock external/third-party dependencies only. - **Go**: Standard `go test`. Tests should create their own fixture data in a test database. ## Commit Rules - Use atomic commits grouped by logical intent. - Conventional format: - `feat(scope): ...` - `fix(scope): ...` - `refactor(scope): ...` - `docs: ...` - `test(scope): ...` - `chore(scope): ...` ## Minimum Pre-Push Checks ```bash make check # Runs all checks: typecheck, unit tests, Go tests, E2E ``` Run verification only when the user explicitly asks for it. For targeted checks when requested: ```bash pnpm typecheck # TypeScript type errors only pnpm test # TS unit tests only (Vitest) make test # Go tests only pnpm exec playwright test # E2E only (requires backend + frontend running) ``` ## AI Agent Verification Loop After writing or modifying code, always run the full verification pipeline: ```bash make check ``` This runs all checks in sequence: 1. TypeScript typecheck (`pnpm typecheck`) 2. TypeScript unit tests (`pnpm test`) 3. Go tests (`go test ./...`) 4. E2E tests (auto-starts backend + frontend if needed, runs Playwright) **Workflow:** - Write code to satisfy the requirement - Run `make check` - If any step fails, read the error output, fix the code, and re-run `make check` - Repeat until all checks pass - Only then consider the task complete **Quick iteration:** If you know only TypeScript or Go is affected, run individual checks first for faster feedback, then finish with a full `make check` before marking work complete. ## E2E Test Patterns E2E tests should be self-contained. Use the `TestApiClient` fixture for data setup/teardown: ```typescript import { loginAsDefault, createTestApi } from "./helpers"; import type { TestApiClient } from "./fixtures"; let api: TestApiClient; test.beforeEach(async ({ page }) => { api = await createTestApi(); // logged-in API client await loginAsDefault(page); // browser session }); test.afterEach(async () => { await api.cleanup(); // delete any data created during the test }); test("example", async ({ page }) => { const issue = await api.createIssue("Test Issue"); // create via API await page.goto(`/issues/${issue.id}`); // test via UI // api.cleanup() in afterEach removes the issue }); ```
