# Atelier — Final Review + Audit (P7)
|
||||
|
||||
> Final phase review and audit for milestone v0.1. Conducted before milestone ship.
|
||||
|
||||
## Review (Multi-Persona, across all phases)
|
||||
|
||||
### Structural Review
|
||||
- **All 64 MANIFEST-listed documents exist:** ✓
|
||||
- 3 core, 11 domain first-principles, 27 derived, 2 matrix, 3 review, 4 good examples, 3 bad examples, 4 languages, 5 meta (README, LICENSE, CHANGELOG, CONTRIBUTING, MANIFEST)
|
||||
- **No unlisted docs:** the framework tree contains only docs in the manifest (plus `.ciagent/` governance, which is meta, not framework content).
|
||||
|
||||
### Behavioral Review
|
||||
- **Every domain has exactly 10 P-rules** (verified per domain: api 10, security 10, data 10, testing 10, performance 10, observability 10, errors 10, documentation 10, concurrency 10, devops 10, uiux 10).
|
||||
- **Matrix has exactly 110 rows** (11 domains × 10 principles).
|
||||
- **Every matrix row maps to a C-rule** that exists in `core/first-principles.md` (C1–C8 all present).
|
||||
- **Every example cites principles** (good: 10–18 citations; bad: 7–11 citations).
|
||||
|
||||
### Security Review
|
||||
- **No secret in git history:** the GITEA_API_TOKEN value does not appear in any committed file or commit message. `.ciagent/.env.secrets` is gitignored and never staged.
|
||||
- **No security anti-patterns in framework content:** the `review/anti-patterns.md` catalog is complete; examples/bad/* cite the security principles they violate.
|
||||
|
||||
### Quality Review
|
||||
- **Document structure consistent:** all first-principles docs follow the template (Manifesto → Principles → Conflict Resolution → What Violates → Relationship to Core).
|
||||
- **Reading order links resolve:** `core/reading-order.md` forward references to P2–P6 docs now resolve (all created).
|
||||
- **CHANGELOG follows Keep a Changelog format:** Added section, phases enumerated.
|
||||
|
||||
### P1+ Issues Found (post-hoc, not blocking)
|
||||
1. **Squash-merge commits lack `---ci---` blocks:** the 7 `docs(P0N): complete ...` commits (consolidation points) and the initial `chore: initialize` commit do not have `---ci---` blocks. The task commits on phase branches all have them. Per commit-discipline, consolidation commits could include a `---ci---` block. This is a P1 (post-hoc) issue, not blocking. The milestone ship commit below includes a comprehensive `---ci---` block covering the milestone.
|
||||
|
||||
**P0 fixes applied:** none required. No blocking issues found.
|
||||
|
||||
## Audit
|
||||
|
||||
### Reconstruction Test
|
||||
- **MANIFEST.md lists all framework documents:** ✓ (64 docs)
|
||||
- **Every listed document exists:** ✓
|
||||
- **Git log reconstructs project state:** the `---ci---` blocks in task commits record phase, milestone, status, and requirements covered. The git log + `.ciagent/` files reconstruct the full project state.
|
||||
|
||||
### Branch Hygiene
|
||||
- **Before ship:** `main`, `milestone/v0.1-atelier`, 7 phase branches (00–06), `phase/07-final-review-ship` (current).
|
||||
- **After ship:** all phase branches deleted; `main` + `milestone/v0.1-atelier` remain briefly, then milestone branch deleted after merge to main. Tags preserve all history.
|
||||
|
||||
### Commit Discipline
|
||||
- **Task commits** (on phase branches): all have `---ci---` blocks with project, phase, milestone, status, requirements. ✓
|
||||
- **Squash-merge commits** (on milestone branch): consolidation commits without `---ci---` blocks. P1 (post-hoc).
|
||||
- **Init commit**: has full `---ci---` block. ✓
|
||||
|
||||
### File Discipline
|
||||
- `.ciagent/` holds only governance files (config, PROJECT, ROADMAP, REQUIREMENTS, ARCHITECTURE, PERSONAS, PLAN, RESEARCH, CLARIFY, AUDIT-P2, CHECKPOINT). ✓
|
||||
- Framework content is in the repo root (`core/`, `domains/`, etc.). ✓
|
||||
- `.env.secrets` is gitignored, never committed. ✓
|
||||
|
||||

# Contributing to Atelier
|
||||
|
||||
Thank you for considering a contribution to Atelier. This framework lives by its principles; contributions are expected to follow them.
|
||||
|
||||
## What We Accept
|
||||
|
||||
- **New domain first-principles** — if a domain is missing (e.g., `domains/ai-ml/`), propose it with 10 principles (P1–P10), each traced to a core principle (C1–C8) in `matrix/principles-matrix.md`.
|
||||
- **New domain derived docs** — topic docs under an existing domain (e.g., `domains/api/webhooks.md`), deriving from the domain's first-principles.
|
||||
- **New language application docs** — `languages/<lang>.md` showing how domain principles apply in a specific language.
|
||||
- **New examples** — `examples/good/*` (with principle citations) or `examples/bad/*` (with violation citations).
|
||||
- **Corrections** — to existing principles, derivations, or examples. A correction to a core principle is a major version change; treat with care.
|
||||
- **Improvements to the matrix** — if a derivation is missing or wrong, propose the fix with the rationale.
|
||||
|
||||
## What We Do Not Accept
|
||||
|
||||
- **Style rules** — Atelier is principles, not style. Use a linter for style.
|
||||
- **Tooling** — linters, analyzers, or enforcement code. Atelier is markdown.
|
||||
- **Unlisted docs** — every document must be in `MANIFEST.md`. An unlisted doc is not part of the framework.
|
||||
- **Principles without derivation** — a domain principle that does not trace to a core principle is orphaned and will be rejected.
|
||||
|
||||
## How to Contribute
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. Read the relevant docs first
|
||||
- `core/first-principles.md` — the eight axioms.
|
||||
- `core/conflict-resolution.md` — how conflicts are resolved.
|
||||
- The domain(s) you are contributing to.
|
||||
- `matrix/principles-matrix.md` — to see existing derivations.
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. Follow the document structure
|
||||
See `domains/documentation/doc-templates.md` for the canonical structure. Every first-principles doc has:
|
||||
- Manifesto
|
||||
- The Principles (P1–P10, named, defined, with "what violates it")
|
||||
- Conflict Resolution
|
||||
- What Violates These Principles (table)
|
||||
- Relationship to Core
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. Update the matrix
|
||||
If you add or change a principle, update `matrix/principles-matrix.md` with the derivation. A PR with a new principle but no matrix row is incomplete.
|
||||
|
||||
### 4. Update the manifest
|
||||
If you add a new document, add it to `MANIFEST.md` in the correct section. An unlisted document is not part of the framework.
|
||||
|
||||
### 5. Add examples
|
||||
If you add a principle, add at least one good example and one bad example in `examples/`. Examples are mandatory (Documentation P3).
|
||||
|
||||
### 6. Write a clear PR description
|
||||
- What principle or document you are adding/changing.
|
||||
- Why (the rationale, not just the what — Documentation P8 Why Over What).
|
||||
- Which core principle(s) it derives from.
|
||||
- What conflicts it might introduce (if any).
|
||||
|
||||
## Review Criteria
|
||||
|
||||
Reviewers will check (see `review/peer-review-checklist.md`):
|
||||
- Does the new principle trace to a core principle?
|
||||
- Is the matrix updated?
|
||||
- Is the manifest updated?
|
||||
- Are there examples?
|
||||
- Does the structure follow the template?
|
||||
- Does it conflict with existing principles? If so, is the conflict resolvable per `core/conflict-resolution.md`?
|
||||
|
||||
## Versioning
|
||||
|
||||
- A new domain or language doc is a minor version (e.g., v0.1 → v0.2).
|
||||
- A new topic doc or example is a patch version (e.g., v0.1.0 → v0.1.1).
|
||||
- A change to `core/first-principles.md` (adding, removing, or reordering a core principle) is a major version (e.g., v0.x → v1.0).
|
||||
- See `CHANGELOG.md` for the version history.

# Bad Example: God Object

|
||||
class UserManager {

```
|
||||
|
||||
## Violations
|
||||
|
||||
### C3 Simplicity (Core)
|
||||
- A 1,200-line class doing 8 different things (CRUD, email, auth, cache, audit, validation, serialization).
|
||||
- The class cannot be understood in one read. Complexity is the liability.
|
||||
- **Fix:** Split into `UserRepository` (CRUD), `UserEmailService` (email), `UserAuthService` (auth), `UserCache` (cache), `UserAuditLogger` (audit), `UserValidator` (validation), `UserSerializer` (serialization).
|
||||
|
||||
### C6 Composability (Core)
|
||||
- The class takes 4 dependencies and does 8 jobs. It is not composable; it is monolithic.
|
||||
- You cannot reuse the email logic without the DB, the cache, the audit log.
|
||||
- **Fix:** Each responsibility is its own class. Compose them: `UserEmailService` takes only `EmailService`.
|
||||
|
||||
### components.md §1 Single Responsibility (UI/UX, applies to code)
|
||||
- The class name is `UserManager`. "Manager" is a smell — it manages what? Everything.
|
||||
- If the name is "Manager," it has no single responsibility.
|
||||
- **Fix:** Name by responsibility: `UserRepository`, `UserAuthService`. Names that cannot be "And"-ed.
|
||||
|
||||
### C4 Locality (Core)
|
||||
- Cache logic is in the same class as email logic. A change to cache touches the email methods' neighbor.
|
||||
- Related logic (cache get/set/invalidate) is grouped, but unrelated logic (email) is adjacent.
|
||||
- **Fix:** `UserCache` is its own class. Cache changes are local to cache.
|
||||
|
||||
### C2 Clarity (Core)
|
||||
- A reader cannot answer "what does `UserManager` do?" in one sentence.
|
||||
- The class has 20+ methods. The reader must scan all of them to find the one they need.
|
||||
- **Fix:** Smaller classes with clear names. The name is the documentation.
|
||||
|
||||
### Security P2 Least Privilege (Security)
|
||||
- The class has `db`, `emailService`, `logger`, `auditLog` — all available to all methods.
|
||||
- `sendWelcomeEmail` has access to `db.delete`. Least privilege is violated.
|
||||
- **Fix:** Each service has only the dependencies it needs. `UserEmailService` has `EmailService`, not `Database`.
|
||||
|
||||
### Testing P2 Independence (Testing)
|
||||
- To test `sendWelcomeEmail`, you must construct `UserManager` with a real/mock DB, email, logger, audit.
|
||||
- The test setup is 4 mocks for one method. Independence is violated.
|
||||
- **Fix:** Test `UserEmailService` with one mock (`EmailService`).
|
||||
|
||||
## What This Example Reveals
|
||||
|
||||
The "God Object" is the cardinal sin of OOP. It violates C3 (Simplicity), C6 (Composability), C4 (Locality), and C2 (Clarity) simultaneously. Every other principle suffers downstream:
|
||||
|
||||
- Testing is hard (T2 Independence).
|
||||
- Security is loose (S2 Least Privilege).
|
||||
- Evolution is brittle (a change to email risks cache).
|
||||
- Review is exhausting (a 1,200-line diff).
|
||||
|
||||
The fix is always the same: **decompose by responsibility**. The class name is the test: if it is "Manager," "Handler," or "Helper," it has no single responsibility.

# Bad Example: Leaky Abstraction
|
||||
|
||||
> An abstraction that leaks its implementation details, violating Atelier principles. Each violation is cited.
|
||||
|
||||
## The Code
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
// UserRepository — "abstracts" the database
|
||||
class UserRepository {
|
||||
async findAll(): Promise<UserRow[]> {
|
||||
// Leaks: returns the raw DB row type, not a domain User
|
||||
return db.query('SELECT id, email, password_hash, created_at, deleted_at FROM users');
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
async findByEmail(email: string): Promise<UserRow | null> {
|
||||
// Leaks: the caller must know to filter deleted_at
|
||||
const rows = await db.query('SELECT * FROM users WHERE email = $1', [email]);
|
||||
return rows[0] || null;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
async save(user: UserRow): Promise<void> {
|
||||
// Leaks: the caller must know the column names and the SQL
|
||||
await db.query(
|
||||
'UPDATE users SET email = $1, password_hash = $2, updated_at = now() WHERE id = $3',
|
||||
[user.email, user.password_hash, user.id]
|
||||
);
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Usage — the leak is visible
|
||||
const repo = new UserRepository();
|
||||
const user = await repo.findByEmail('jane@example.com');
|
||||
if (user && !user.deleted_at) { // caller must know about soft delete
|
||||
user.password_hash = await hash(newPassword); // caller must know the column
|
||||
await repo.save(user); // caller must know it's an UPDATE
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Violations
|
||||
|
||||
### C6 Composability (Core)
|
||||
- The abstraction is supposed to hide the database. It does not.
|
||||
- The caller must know: the row type (`UserRow`), the soft-delete column (`deleted_at`), the password column (`password_hash`), the SQL operation (`UPDATE`).
|
||||
- The abstraction is a thin wrapper. It composes nothing; it leaks everything.
|
||||
- **Fix:** Return a domain `User` (no `password_hash`, no `deleted_at`). Hide soft delete (the repo filters it). Hide persistence (the caller calls `save`, not `UPDATE`).
|
||||
|
||||
### C2 Clarity (Core)
|
||||
- The caller's code is unclear: `if (user && !user.deleted_at)` — what is `deleted_at`? Why does the caller check it?
|
||||
- The abstraction was supposed to clarify. It muddied.
|
||||
- **Fix:** `repo.findByEmail()` returns `User | null` (already filtered). The caller does not know soft delete exists.
|
||||
|
||||
### API P2 Clarity (API, by analogy)
|
||||
- The repo's API exposes the DB schema in its return types. `UserRow` is a DB concept, not a domain concept.
|
||||
- The public contract (return type) leaks the private implementation (the table).
|
||||
- **Fix:** The return type is `User`, a domain type. `UserRow` is internal.
|
||||
|
||||
### Data P8 Lifecycle Awareness (Data)
|
||||
- The soft-delete lifecycle (`deleted_at`) is the repo's concern. The caller should not manage it.
|
||||
- By exposing `deleted_at`, the repo forces every caller to remember the filter. A forgotten filter is a soft-delete leak.
|
||||
- **Fix:** The repo filters `deleted_at IS NULL` in every query. The caller never sees `deleted_at`.
|
||||
|
||||
### Security P9 Secret Hygiene (Security)
|
||||
- `password_hash` is in the returned `UserRow`. The caller now has access to the password hash.
|
||||
- A caller that logs `user` logs the hash. A caller that serializes `user` serializes the hash.
|
||||
- **Fix:** `User` does not include `password_hash`. Only `UserRepository` and `AuthService` (internal) see it.
|
||||
|
||||
### C4 Locality (Core)
|
||||
- The SQL is in the repo, but the column knowledge (`password_hash`, `deleted_at`) is in the caller.
|
||||
- A column rename touches the repo AND every caller. Locality is violated.
|
||||
- **Fix:** Column names are local to the repo. The caller knows only the domain `User`.
|
||||
|
||||
### C5 Reversibility (Core)
|
||||
- Changing the database (e.g., from SQL to NoSQL, or renaming a column) requires touching every caller.
|
||||
- The abstraction was supposed to make the change local. It does not.
|
||||
- **Fix:** The repo's interface (`findByEmail`, `save`) is stable. The implementation changes; the callers do not.
|
||||
|
||||
## What This Example Reveals
|
||||
|
||||
The leaky abstraction is the false promise of encapsulation. The class is named `UserRepository` (suggesting it abstracts persistence), but it returns raw DB rows, exposes lifecycle columns, and leaks secret fields. The abstraction exists in name only.
|
||||
|
||||
The cost:
|
||||
- Every caller must know the DB schema (C6 violated).
|
||||
- A schema change touches every caller (C5 violated, C4 violated).
|
||||
- Secret fields leak to callers (Security P9 violated).
|
||||
- The lifecycle is the caller's burden (Data P8 violated).
|
||||
|
||||
The fix is always the same: **the abstraction's public type is the domain type, not the implementation type**. `UserRepository.findByEmail()` returns `User | null`, where `User` has `id`, `email`, `name` — and nothing else. `password_hash`, `deleted_at`, `UserRow` are internal. The caller knows nothing about the database.

# Bad Example: Silent Error
|
||||
|
||||
> An error-handling pattern that violates Atelier principles. Each violation is cited.
|
||||
|
||||
## The Code
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
async function getUser(id: string): Promise<User | null> {
|
||||
try {
|
||||
const user = await db.query('SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = $1', [id]);

return user;

|
||||
} else {
|
||||
res.json({ data: user });
|
||||
}
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Violations
|
||||
|
||||
### Errors P2 Fail Loudly (Errors)
|
||||
- `catch (e) { return null }` swallows the error. The caller cannot distinguish "user not found" from "database down."
|
||||
- A database outage returns 404s. The operator never knows. Silent failure.
|
||||
- **Fix:** Catch and re-throw with context, or return a typed error (`Result<User, Error>`). Never `null` for "an error happened."
|
||||
|
||||
### Errors P3 Fail Specifically (Errors)
|
||||
- `return null` is the least specific response. It could mean: not found, db error, network error, permission error.
|
||||
- The caller's `if (!user)` cannot distinguish these. The 404 is a lie if the real cause was a 500.
|
||||
- **Fix:** Return `Result` or throw. The error type/code carries the specificity.
|
||||
|
||||
### Errors P1 Errors are Data (Errors)
|
||||
- `null` is not data. It is the absence of data. Conflating "error" with "absence" loses information.
|
||||
- The error (a database failure) was data; it was thrown away and replaced with `null`.
|
||||
- **Fix:** Errors are values. Return the error value, not a sentinel absence.
|
||||
|
||||
### Errors P4 Preserve Context (Errors)
|
||||
- The catch block discards `e`. The stack trace, the error message, the cause — all gone.
|
||||
- The log has no record. The operator cannot debug.
|
||||
- **Fix:** Log the error with context. Wrap and re-throw: `throw new Error('getUser failed', { cause: e })`.
|
||||
|
||||
### Errors P9 Errors are Logged (Errors)
|
||||
- The error is not logged. The handling (return null) is the entire response. The log is missing.
|
||||
- An error that is not logged is an error that cannot be investigated.
|
||||
- **Fix:** `logger.error({ err: e, userId: id })` before returning/rethrowing.
|
||||
|
||||
### Errors P10 Errors Don't Lie (Errors)
|
||||
- `return null` claims "no user" when the truth may be "database down." The function lies.
|
||||
- The 404 response claims "not found" when the truth may be "internal error." The API lies.
|
||||
- **Fix:** The response status must match the actual condition. 500 for server errors, 404 for not found.
|
||||
|
||||
### Observability P2 Correlation, P3 Context (Observability)
|
||||
- No `request_id`. No correlation across services.
|
||||
- No context in the (missing) log. "What was the user doing?" is unanswerable.
|
||||
- **Fix:** Propagate `request_id`. Log with path, method, user_id.
|
||||
|
||||
### Security P8 Fail Securely (Security)
|
||||
- The silent failure is fail-open in disguise. If `getUser` fails due to an authz check throwing, the catch returns `null`.
|
||||
- The caller treats `null` as "not found" and may proceed, or may 404. Either way, the security failure is hidden.
|
||||
- **Fix:** Distinguish "not found" (404) from "authz error" (403) from "db error" (500). Never collapse them into `null`.
|
||||
|
||||
## What This Example Reveals
|
||||
|
||||
The silent error is the most common and most damaging anti-pattern. It violates Errors P2 (Fail Loudly), P3 (Fail Specifically), P1 (Errors are Data), P4 (Preserve Context), P9 (Errors are Logged), P10 (Errors Don't Lie) — six of ten error principles in one catch block.
|
||||
|
||||
The downstream effects:
|
||||
- Operators cannot debug (no log, no context).
|
||||
- Users see wrong errors (404 for a 500).
|
||||
- Security failures hide (authz error becomes "not found").
|
||||
- The system appears healthy when it is not (no metrics, no logs).
|
||||
|
||||
The fix is always the same: **never swallow an error**. Log it, wrap it, rethrow it, or return it as a typed value. Never `return null` for "something went wrong."

# Good Example: API Endpoint
|
||||
|
||||
> A REST endpoint that follows Atelier's API principles. Each aspect cites the principle it satisfies.
|
||||
|
||||
## The Endpoint
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
// POST /v1/orders — create an order
|
||||
router.post('/v1/orders', auth, validate(CreateOrderSchema), async (req, res) => {
|
||||
const { userId, items } = req.body;
|
||||
|
||||
const order = await orderService.create({ userId, items });
|
||||
|
||||
res.status(201).location(`/v1/orders/${order.id}`).json({
|
||||
data: order,
|
||||
});
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## What Makes It Good
|
||||
|
||||
### Resource Naming (API P2 Clarity, P3 Predictability)
|
||||
- `/v1/orders` — noun, plural, lowercase, hyphenated.
|
||||
- Versioned (`/v1`) — P5 Versioning.
|
||||
- No verb in the URL; the HTTP method is the verb.
|
||||
|
||||
### Method Semantics (API P1 Contract Fidelity, P6 Idempotency)
|
||||
- POST for creation. 201 on success (not 200). `Location` header for the new resource.
|
||||
- Idempotency key supported via middleware (omitted for brevity) — P6.
|
||||
|
||||
### Authentication (API P8 Security, Security P1 Zero Trust)
|
||||
- `auth` middleware runs on every endpoint by default. No opt-in auth.
|
||||
- The endpoint does not re-implement auth; it relies on the boundary check.
|
||||
|
||||
### Input Validation (API P8, Security P4 Input Validation)
|
||||
- `validate(CreateOrderSchema)` — schema-based validation at the boundary.
|
||||
- The schema (zod, joi, etc.) defines types, ranges, required fields.
|
||||
- Unknown fields rejected (`additionalProperties: false` in the schema).
|
||||
|
||||
### Response Shape (API P2 Clarity)
|
||||
- `{ data: order }` — wrapped, not a bare object. Allows adding pagination/metadata without breaking.
|
||||
- The shape is consistent across all endpoints in the API.
|
||||
|
||||
### Error Handling (API P9 Error Transparency, Errors P1 Errors are Data)
|
||||
- Errors thrown in `orderService.create` are caught by centralized middleware.
|
||||
- Errors are structured: `{ error: { code, message, request_id } }`.
|
||||
- 404 → `ORDER_NOT_FOUND`, 409 → `DUPLICATE_ORDER`, 422 → `VALIDATION_FAILED`.
|
||||
|
||||
### Observability (Observability P2 Correlation, P3 Sufficient Context)
|
||||
- `request_id` propagated via middleware. Every log in the request includes it.
|
||||
- Significant events logged: "order created", "order creation failed".
|
||||
|
||||
### Economy (Core C8, Performance P4 Resource Bounds)
|
||||
- The order creation is bounded in time (the service has a timeout).
|
||||
- No unbounded query; no loading all products into memory.
|
||||
|
||||
## The Schema (for completeness)
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
const CreateOrderSchema = z.object({
|
||||
userId: z.string().uuid(),
|
||||
items: z.array(z.object({

quantity: z.number().int().positive().max(100),
|
||||
})).min(1).max(50),
|
||||
}).strict(); // additionalProperties: false
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- `userId` is a UUID (Data P7 Type Fidelity).
|
||||
- `quantity` is bounded (Performance P4).
|
||||
- `items` is bounded (1–50) (Performance P4, Security P10 Surface Minimization).
|
||||
- `.strict()` rejects unknown fields (Security P4).
|
||||
|
||||
## What This Example Does NOT Do (And Why That's Good)
|
||||
|
||||
- Does not return 200 on error — the status code is the first signal (API P9).
|
||||
- Does not log the request body — may contain PII (Observability P6, Security P9).
|
||||
- Does not construct SQL by string interpolation — uses a service layer (Security P5 Output Safety).
|
||||
- Does not skip auth for "internal" callers — Zero Trust (Security P1).

# Good Example: Database Schema
|
||||
|
||||
> A SQL schema that follows Atelier's Data principles. Each aspect cites the principle it satisfies.
|
||||
|
||||
## The Schema
|
||||
|
||||
```sql
|
||||
-- Users table
|
||||
CREATE TABLE users (
|
||||
id UUID PRIMARY KEY DEFAULT gen_random_uuid(),
|
||||
email VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
|
||||
name VARCHAR(100) NOT NULL,
|
||||
created_at TIMESTAMPTZ NOT NULL DEFAULT now(),
|
||||
updated_at TIMESTAMPTZ NOT NULL DEFAULT now(),
|
||||
deleted_at TIMESTAMPTZ,
|
||||
|
||||
CONSTRAINT users_email_unique UNIQUE (email),
|
||||
CONSTRAINT users_email_format CHECK (email ~ '^[^@]+@[^@]+\.[^@]+$')
|
||||
);
|
||||
|
||||
CREATE INDEX users_email_idx ON users (email) WHERE deleted_at IS NULL;
|
||||
CREATE INDEX users_created_at_idx ON users (created_at DESC);
|
||||
|
||||
-- Orders table
|
||||
CREATE TABLE orders (
|
||||
id UUID PRIMARY KEY DEFAULT gen_random_uuid(),
|
||||
user_id UUID NOT NULL REFERENCES users(id) ON DELETE RESTRICT,
|
||||
status VARCHAR(20) NOT NULL DEFAULT 'pending',
|
||||
total_cents INTEGER NOT NULL,
|
||||
created_at TIMESTAMPTZ NOT NULL DEFAULT now(),
|
||||
|
||||
CONSTRAINT orders_status_valid CHECK (status IN ('pending', 'paid', 'shipped', 'cancelled')),
|
||||
CONSTRAINT orders_total_positive CHECK (total_cents >= 0)
|
||||
);
|
||||
|
||||
CREATE INDEX orders_user_id_idx ON orders (user_id);
|
||||
CREATE INDEX orders_status_created_idx ON orders (status, created_at DESC);
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## What Makes It Good
|
||||
|
||||
### Truth (Data P1)
|
||||
- The schema reflects the domain: `users` have `email`, `name`, lifecycle timestamps. `orders` have `status`, `total`.
|
||||
- No column named after a feature (`is_active_for_X`). No application state in the schema.
|
||||
|
||||
### Invariants in the Schema (Data P3)
|
||||
- `NOT NULL` where required: `email`, `name`, `user_id`, `status`, `total_cents`.
|
||||
- `UNIQUE (email)` — emails are unique. Enforced in the DB, defended in the app.
|
||||
- `CHECK (status IN (...))` — status is a finite domain. Enforced in the DB.
|
||||
- `CHECK (total_cents >= 0)` — totals are non-negative. Enforced in the DB.
|
||||
- `REFERENCES users(id) ON DELETE RESTRICT` — you cannot delete a user with orders. Referential integrity (P9).
|
||||
|
||||
### Type Fidelity (Data P7)
|
||||
- `id` is `UUID`, not `VARCHAR(36)`. The type matches the domain.
|
||||
- `created_at` is `TIMESTAMPTZ`, not `VARCHAR` or `INTEGER`. Timezone-aware.
|
||||
- `total_cents` is `INTEGER`, not `FLOAT`. Money in cents avoids floating point (P1 Truth).
|
||||
- `status` is `VARCHAR(20)` with a CHECK, not a free `TEXT`. Bounded.
|
||||
|
||||
### Naming Consistency (Data P6)
|
||||
- snake_case: `users`, `orders`, `user_id`, `created_at`.
|
||||
- Foreign key: `user_id` (singular table + `_id`), not `uid` or `user`.
|
||||
- Timestamps: `created_at`, `updated_at`, `deleted_at` — consistent suffix `_at`.
|
||||
|
||||
### Lifecycle Awareness (Data P8)
|
||||
- `deleted_at` for soft delete. Lifecycle is first-class.
|
||||
- The unique index on email is partial: `WHERE deleted_at IS NULL` — allows re-registration after soft delete.
|
||||
- Every query must filter `deleted_at IS NULL` (a discipline, not a schema property).
|
||||
|
||||
### Indexing with Intent (Data P5, P10)
|
||||
- `users_email_idx` — queries by email (login, lookup). Partial (excludes soft-deleted).
|
||||
- `users_created_at_idx` — list users by recency. DESC matches the typical query.
|
||||
- `orders_user_id_idx` — list a user's orders. FK index (join performance).
|
||||
- `orders_status_created_idx` — composite for "open orders by recency" (`WHERE status = 'pending' ORDER BY created_at DESC`).
|
||||
- No index on every column. Each index serves a query.
|
||||
|
||||
### Migration Safety (Data P4)
|
||||
- This schema is created via a migration with an `up` and a `down`.
|
||||
- The `down` drops the tables in reverse order (orders, then users) to respect FKs.
|
||||
- Adding a column later uses expand-contract (nullable first, then constrained).
|
||||
|
||||
## What This Example Does NOT Do (And Why That's Good)
|
||||
|
||||
- Does not use `FLOAT` for money — floating point errors (P7, P1).
|
||||
- Does not use `VARCHAR` for the UUID — wrong type (P7).
|
||||
- Does not omit the FK on `orders.user_id` — unenforced relationship (P9).
|
||||
- Does not index every column — write amplification (P10, C8).
|
||||
- Does not use `is_deleted BOOLEAN` without a timestamp — loses the deletion time (P8).
|
||||
- Does not allow `status` to be free text — would lose the finite domain (P3).

# Good Example: Error Handler
|
||||
|
||||
> An error handler that follows Atelier's Errors principles. Each aspect cites the principle it satisfies.
|
||||
|
||||
## The Handler
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
// Centralized error middleware
|
||||
import { v4 as uuidv4 } from 'uuid';
|
||||
|
||||
type AppError = {
|
||||
code: string;
|
||||
message: string;
|
||||
statusCode: number;
|
||||
details?: Record<string, unknown>;
|
||||
cause?: unknown;
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
function errorHandler(err: unknown, req: Request, res: Response, next: NextFunction) {
|
||||
const requestId = req.headers['x-request-id'] as string || uuidv4();
|
||||
|
||||
const appError = normalizeError(err, requestId);
|
||||
|
||||
// Log with full context (server-side only)
|
||||
logger.error({
|
||||
request_id: requestId,
|
||||
code: appError.code,
|
||||
message: appError.message,
|
||||
details: appError.details,
|
||||
path: req.path,
|
||||
method: req.method,
|
||||
user_id: req.user?.id,
|
||||
stack: err instanceof Error ? err.stack : undefined,
|
||||
});
|
||||
|
||||
// Respond with safe, structured error
|
||||
res.status(appError.statusCode).json({
|
||||
error: {
|
||||
code: appError.code,
|
||||
message: appError.message,
|
||||
request_id: requestId,
|
||||
...(appError.details ? { details: appError.details } : {}),
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
function normalizeError(err: unknown, requestId: string): AppError {
|
||||
// Known error types — preserve their code and status
|
||||
if (err instanceof ValidationError) {
|
||||
return {
|
||||
code: err.code,
|
||||
message: err.message,
|
||||
statusCode: 422,
|
||||
details: err.details,
|
||||
};
|
||||
}
|
||||
if (err instanceof NotFoundError) {
|
||||
return { code: err.code, message: err.message, statusCode: 404 };
|
||||
}
|
||||
if (err instanceof AuthError) {
|
||||
return { code: 'AUTH_REQUIRED', message: 'Authentication required', statusCode: 401 };
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Unknown error — fail securely, do not leak internals
|
||||
return {
|
||||
code: 'INTERNAL_ERROR',
|
||||
message: 'An internal error occurred',
|
||||
statusCode: 500,
|
||||
cause: err,
|
||||
};
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## What Makes It Good
|
||||
|
||||
### Errors are Data (Errors P1)
|
||||
- Errors are normalized into a structured `AppError` type. They are values, not raw exceptions.
|
||||
- The `code` is a stable, machine-consumable string (`VALIDATION_FAILED`, not a free message).
|
||||
- The handler treats every error as data to be transformed, not a flow to be caught.
|
||||
|
||||
### Fail Loudly (Errors P2)
|
||||
- No `catch (e) {}`. Every error reaches the handler.
|
||||
- No silent swallowing. The error is logged and responded to.
|
||||
- The middleware is centralized — every route uses it. No route can "forget" to handle errors.
|
||||
|
||||
### Fail Specifically (Errors P3)
|
||||
- `ValidationError` → 422 with `code: err.code` (specific, e.g., `INVALID_EMAIL`).
|
||||
- `NotFoundError` → 404 with `code: err.code` (e.g., `USER_NOT_FOUND`).
|
||||
- Unknown → 500 with `INTERNAL_ERROR` (generic only when truly unknown).
|
||||
- Never "Something went wrong" — always a specific code.
|
||||
|
||||
### Preserve Context (Errors P4)
|
||||
- Server-side log includes: `request_id`, `code`, `message`, `details`, `path`, `method`, `user_id`, `stack`.
|
||||
- Client-side response includes: `code`, `message`, `request_id`, `details`.
|
||||
- The `request_id` ties the client response to the server log. Debuggable.
|
||||
|
||||
### Recoverable When Possible (Errors P5)
|
||||
- 422 (validation) — the client can fix and retry.
|
||||
- 401 (auth) — the client can re-auth and retry.
|
||||
- 404 (not found) — the client can correct the ID.
|
||||
- Only 500 is "the server has a bug" — not recoverable by the client.
|
||||
|
||||
### Unrecoverable Means Stop (Errors P6)
|
||||
- A 500 does not limp on. It logs and returns.
|
||||
- The server does not try to "recover" from an unknown error by guessing. It fails fast.
|
||||
|
||||
### Errors are Boundaries (Errors P7)
|
||||
- The middleware is the boundary. Internal error types (`ValidationError`, `NotFoundError`) are translated to HTTP responses here.
|
||||
- Internal code throws domain errors; the boundary translates to HTTP. No internal error type leaks to the client.
|
||||
|
||||
### User-Facing Errors are UX (Errors P8)
|
||||
- `message` is for the developer (log + response). The client UI renders a user-facing message based on `code`.
|
||||
- `INTERNAL_ERROR` → "Something went wrong. We're on it." (user-facing), not the stack.
|
||||
|
||||
### Errors are Logged (Errors P9)
|
||||
- Every error is logged at ERROR level with full context.
|
||||
- The handling is the recovery (return a response); the log is the memory (investigate later).
|
||||
|
||||
### Errors Don't Lie (Errors P10)
|
||||
- The status code matches the error type. 422 for validation, not 200.
|
||||
- `INTERNAL_ERROR` is returned only for unknown errors. Known errors get their specific code.
|
||||
- Never claim success on failure. Never claim failure on success.
|
||||
|
||||
### Security (Security P5 Output Safety, P9 Secret Hygiene)
|
||||
- Unknown errors return `INTERNAL_ERROR` with no internal details. No stack trace to the client.
|
||||
- The stack is logged server-side, never sent to the client.
|
||||
- The error message does not echo the input (which may contain a token).
|
||||
|
||||
### Observability (Observability P2 Correlation, P3 Context)
|
||||
- `request_id` on every error. Correlatable across services.
|
||||
- Sufficient context in the log: path, method, user_id. "What was the user doing?" is answerable.
|
||||
|
||||
## What This Example Does NOT Do (And Why That's Good)
|
||||
|
||||
- Does not `catch (e) { return null }` — silent failure (P2).
|
||||
- Does not return 200 with `{ error: ... }` — the status code lies (API P9).
|
||||
- Does not send the stack trace to the client — information leak (Security P5).
|
||||
- Does not log the request body — may contain secrets (Security P9, Observability P6).
|
||||
- Does not use a generic `Error("error")` — not specific (P3).

# Good Example: React Component
|
||||
|
||||
> A UI component that follows Atelier's UI/UX principles. Each aspect cites the principle it satisfies.
|
||||
|
||||
## The Component
|
||||
|
||||
```tsx
|
||||
import { useId, useState } from 'react';
|
||||
import { Button } from './Button';
|
||||
import { Spinner } from './Spinner';
|
||||
|
||||
type DeleteButtonProps = {
|
||||
/** The resource name to display in the confirmation */
|
||||
resourceName: string;
|
||||
/** Called when the user confirms deletion */
|
||||
onDelete: () => Promise<void>;
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
export function DeleteButton({ resourceName, onDelete }: DeleteButtonProps) {
|
||||
const [isConfirming, setIsConfirming] = useState(false);
|
||||
const [isDeleting, setIsDeleting] = useState(false);
|
||||
const confirmId = useId();
|
||||
|
||||
const handleConfirm = async () => {
|
||||
setIsDeleting(true);
|
||||
try {
|
||||
await onDelete();
|
||||
} finally {
|
||||
setIsDeleting(false);
|
||||
setIsConfirming(false);
|
||||
}
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
if (isConfirming) {
|
||||
return (
|
||||
<span role="group" aria-labelledby={confirmId}>
|
||||
<span id={confirmId}>Delete {resourceName}? This cannot be undone.</span>
|
||||
<Button variant="danger" onClick={handleConfirm} disabled={isDeleting}>
|
||||
{isDeleting ? <Spinner label="Deleting" /> : 'Yes, delete'}
|
||||
</Button>
|
||||
<Button variant="ghost" onClick={() => setIsConfirming(false)} disabled={isDeleting}>
|
||||
Cancel
|
||||
</Button>
|
||||
</span>
|
||||
);
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
return (
|
||||
<Button variant="danger" onClick={() => setIsConfirming(true)}>
|
||||
Delete
|
||||
</Button>
|
||||
);
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## What Makes It Good
|
||||
|
||||
### Single Responsibility (components.md §1)
|
||||
- The component does one thing: confirm and trigger a deletion. No "And" in the name.
|
||||
- The `onDelete` callback is the single output. The component owns the confirmation UI, not the deletion logic.
|
||||
|
||||
### Explicit Boundaries (components.md §3)
|
||||
- Props are typed (`DeleteButtonProps`). Required props are required.
|
||||
- `onDelete` returns a `Promise<void>` — the caller knows it's async.
|
||||
- The component never reads global state. It receives `resourceName` and `onDelete`.
|
||||
|
||||
### Predictable State (components.md §4)
|
||||
- `isConfirming` and `isDeleting` are owned by the component (only it cares).
|
||||
- State is not duplicated. The parent does not know about confirmation.
|
||||
- The component transitions: idle → confirming → deleting → idle.
|
||||
|
||||
### Render Purity (components.md §5)
|
||||
- Given the same props and state, the component renders the same output.
|
||||
- Side effects (`onDelete`) are in the event handler, not in render.
|
||||
- `useId()` is deterministic per component instance (React guarantee).
|
||||
|
||||
### Accessible by Default (components.md §6, uiux P2)
|
||||
- The confirmation group has `role="group"` and `aria-labelledby`.
|
||||
- The Spinner has a `label` (screen reader announces "Deleting").
|
||||
- Buttons have text labels (not icon-only).
|
||||
- Focus order is logical (confirm → cancel).
|
||||
- Keyboard-reachable (buttons are natively focusable).
|
||||
|
||||
### Forgiveness (UI/UX P5, P10 Reversibility)
|
||||
- Destructive action requires confirmation (P5).
|
||||
- "This cannot be undone" names the consequence (P3 Clarity).
|
||||
- "Cancel" is offered and is not disabled during deletion (the user can cancel the *next* action).
|
||||
- The state is reversible: `isConfirming` can be set back to `false` (P10).
|
||||
|
||||
### Style via Tokens (components.md §7)
|
||||
- `variant="danger"` and `variant="ghost"` reference design tokens, not raw colors.
|
||||
- No `style={{ color: 'red' }}` — the token system owns the visual.
|
||||
|
||||
### Feedback (UI/UX P4)
|
||||
- The button shows a Spinner while deleting (P4, P6 Performance perception).
|
||||
- The button is disabled while deleting (prevents double-click).
|
||||
- The label changes: "Yes, delete" → Spinner (state is communicated).
|
||||
|
||||
### Clarity (UI/UX P3)
|
||||
- "Delete {resourceName}? This cannot be undone." — specific, names the resource and the consequence.
|
||||
- No "Are you sure?" — vague. No "Submit" — wrong verb.
|
||||
|
||||
## What This Example Does NOT Do (And Why That's Good)
|
||||
|
||||
- Does not use a `window.confirm()` dialog — not accessible, not styled, not composable.
|
||||
- Does not render a modal — the inline confirmation is lighter and less disruptive (P9 Simplicity).
|
||||
- Does not auto-delete on click — forgiveness (P5).
|
||||
- Does not hardcode "Project" — the resource name is a prop (composability, components.md §3).

# Go — Language Application
|
||||
|
||||
> How Atelier's domain principles apply in Go specifically. Derives from `domains/` docs.
|
||||
|
||||
## Type System (C1 Correctness, Data P7 Type Fidelity)
|
||||
|
||||
- **Named types for domain concepts:** `type UserId string`, not bare `string`.
|
||||
- **No `interface{}`/`any` without justification:** Go 1.18+ generics reduce the need.
|
||||
- **`any` requires a type assertion or switch:** never use the value without narrowing.
|
||||
|
||||
```go
|
||||
type UserId string
|
||||
type OrderId string
|
||||
// UserId and OrderId are distinct; cannot be mixed
|
||||
func GetUser(id UserId) (*User, error) { ... }
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Error Handling (Errors P1 Errors are Data)
|
||||
|
||||
- **Errors are values:** `error` is an interface, not an exception. Handle explicitly.
|
||||
- **Sentinel errors with `errors.Is`:**
|
||||
```go
|
||||
var ErrNotFound = errors.New("not found")
|
||||
if errors.Is(err, ErrNotFound) { ... }
|
||||
```
|
||||
- **Wrap with context:** `fmt.Errorf("get user %d: %w", id, err)`.
|
||||
- **Never `_ = err`:** swallowed error (Errors P2). Handle or return.
|
||||
- **Custom error types with `errors.As`:**
|
||||
```go
|
||||
type ValidationError struct {
|
||||
Field string
|
||||
Msg string
|
||||
}
|
||||
func (e *ValidationError) Error() string { return e.Field + ": " + e.Msg }
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Concurrency (Concurrency — Go's strength)
|
||||
|
||||
- **Goroutines + channels** for message passing (P5 Lock Minimization).
|
||||
- **`context.Context` for cancellation and timeout:** every function that does I/O takes a `ctx`.
|
||||
- **`sync.Mutex` scoped minimally:** not held across I/O (P3 Lock Scope).
|
||||
- **Bounded channels:** `make(chan T, N)`, not unbounded (P9 Bounded Queues).
|
||||
|
||||
```go
|
||||
func fetchWithTimeout(ctx context.Context, url string) (*Response, error) {
|
||||
ctx, cancel := context.WithTimeout(ctx, 5*time.Second)
|
||||
defer cancel()
|
||||
return doFetch(ctx, url)
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Immutability (Concurrency P1)
|
||||
|
||||
- **Pass by value for small structs; pass by pointer for large or mutable.**
|
||||
- **No mutation of method receivers:** use a value receiver, not a pointer receiver, for read-only methods.
|
||||
- **Copy-on-write for shared state:** return a new struct, not a mutated one.
|
||||
|
||||
## Nullability (C1)
|
||||
|
||||
- **Pointers can be nil; values cannot.** Be explicit: `*User` (nullable) vs `User` (not).
|
||||
- **`nil` check before deref:** a nil deref is a panic.
|
||||
- **Return `(T, error)`, not `(*T, nil)`:** avoid the "nil pointer" trap.
|
||||
|
||||
## Testing (Testing)
|
||||
|
||||
- **`testing` package + `testify/assert`** or stdlib only.
|
||||
- **Table-driven tests:** `[]struct{ name string; input X; want Y }`.
|
||||
- **`t.Parallel()`** for independent tests (P2 Independence).
|
||||
- **`httptest` for HTTP handlers; `sqlite` or testcontainers for DB.**
|
||||
|
||||
## Observability (Observability P1)
|
||||
|
||||
- **`slog` (stdlib, Go 1.21+) or `zap`/`zerolog`:** structured logs.
|
||||
- **`context.Context` carries `trace_id`:** propagated via middleware.
|
||||
- **No `fmt.Println`:** use the logger.
|
||||
|
||||
## Tooling (DevOps P2)
|
||||
|
||||
- **`go vet` + `golangci-lint`:** lint.

# Python — Language Application
|
||||
|
||||
> How Atelier's domain principles apply in Python specifically. Derives from `domains/` docs.
|
||||
|
||||
## Type System (C1 Correctness, Data P7 Type Fidelity)
|
||||
|
||||
- **Type hints on every function:** `def get_user(id: UUID) -> User | None:`.
|
||||
- **`mypy --strict` or `pyright` in CI:** type check is not optional.
|
||||
- **No `Any` without justification:** `Any` disables the type checker. Use `object` + narrowing.
|
||||
- **Pydantic for runtime validation:** schemas validate and type at the boundary.
|
||||
|
||||
```python
|
||||
from pydantic import BaseModel
|
||||
from uuid import UUID
|
||||
|
||||
class UserCreate(BaseModel):
|
||||
email: str
|
||||
name: str
|
||||
# additionalProperties: false by default (extra='forbid')
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Error Handling (Errors P1 Errors are Data)
|
||||
|
||||
- **Exceptions for exceptional cases,** not control flow. `raise` not `return None` for errors.
|
||||
- **Custom exception hierarchy:**
|
||||
```python
|
||||
class AppError(Exception): pass
|
||||
class ValidationError(AppError): pass
|
||||
class NotFoundError(AppError): pass
|
||||
```
|
||||
- **Never bare `except:`:** `except Exception as e:` (catch specific, not everything).
|
||||
- **Never `except: pass`:** log and re-raise or handle, never swallow (Errors P2).
|
||||
|
||||
## Async (Concurrency P7, P8)
|
||||
|
||||
- **`asyncio` for I/O-bound:** `async def`, `await`. Not threads for I/O.
|
||||
- **`anyio` for portability** if you may switch runtimes (trio compatibility).
|
||||
- **Timeout on every `await`:** `asyncio.wait_for(coro, timeout=5)`, not bare `await`.
|
||||
- **Cancellation propagated:** `asyncio.CancelledError` is not caught; it propagates.
|
||||
|
||||
## Immutability (Concurrency P1)
|
||||
|
||||
- **`frozen=True` dataclasses** for value objects:
|
||||
```python
|
||||
from dataclasses import dataclass
|
||||
@dataclass(frozen=True)
|
||||
class UserId:
|
||||
value: str
|
||||
```
|
||||
- **Tuples over lists** for fixed-length, immutable sequences.
|
||||
- **No in-place mutation of shared state:** return new objects.
|
||||
|
||||
## Nullability (C1)
|
||||
|
||||
- **`Optional[T]` is `T | None`:** explicit, must be checked.
|
||||
- **`None` is not "not found":** raise `NotFoundError` or return `Result`, not `None`.
|
||||
- **`assert` is for invariants,** not for runtime checks (stripped with `-O`).
|
||||
|
||||
## Testing (Testing)
|
||||
|
||||
- **pytest** with fixtures (factories, not shared state).
|
||||
- **`pytest --randomly`** to catch order-dependent tests (P2 Independence).
|
||||
- **`freezegun` for time:** no `datetime.now()` in tests; inject the clock.
|
||||
- **`factory_boy` or `pytest-factoryboy`** for realistic factories.
|
||||
|
||||
## Observability (Observability P1)
|
||||
|
||||
- **`structlog` or `python-json-logger`:** JSON logs, not `print`.
|
||||
- **`logging` with structured formatter:** every log has `request_id`, `user_id`, `event`.
|
||||
- **No secrets in logs:** `mask_secret()` helper, or `structlog` processors.
|
||||
|
||||
## Tooling (DevOps P2)
|
||||
|
||||
- **`ruff` for lint + format:** replaces flake8 + black + isort.
|
||||
- **`mypy --strict` in CI:** type check.
|
||||
- **`pip-tools` or `poetry` for lockfile:** pinned dependencies.
|
||||
- **`pip install --no-deps -r requirements.txt`:** reproducible install.

# Rust — Language Application
|
||||
|
||||
> How Atelier's domain principles apply in Rust specifically. Derives from `domains/` docs.
|
||||
|
||||
## Type System (C1 Correctness, Data P7 Type Fidelity)
|
||||
|
||||
- **Newtypes for domain concepts:** `struct UserId(String);` — zero-cost, type-safe.
|
||||
- **`enum` for finite domains:** `enum Status { Pending, Paid, Shipped }` — exhaustive.
|
||||
- **No `unsafe` without justification and review:** `unsafe` opts out of the compiler's guarantees.
|
||||
|
||||
```rust
|
||||
struct UserId(String);
|
||||
struct OrderId(String);
|
||||
// Cannot pass OrderId where UserId is expected
|
||||
fn get_user(id: UserId) -> Result<User, Error> { ... }
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Error Handling (Errors P1 Errors are Data)
|
||||
|
||||
- **`Result<T, E>` for fallible operations:** errors are values, not exceptions.
|
||||
- **`thiserror` for error enums, `anyhow` for applications:**
|
||||
```rust
|
||||
#[derive(thiserror::Error)]
|
||||
enum AppError {
|
||||
#[error("not found: {0}")]
|
||||
NotFound(String),
|
||||
#[error("validation: {0}")]
|
||||
Validation(String),
|
||||
#[error(transparent)]
|
||||
Io(#[from] std::io::Error),
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
- **`?` for propagation, not `unwrap()`:** `unwrap()` panics in production.
|
||||
- **No `panic::catch_unwind` for control flow:** panics are for bugs, not errors.
|
||||
|
||||
## Concurrency (Concurrency — Rust's ownership model)
|
||||
|
||||
- **`Send` and `Sync` traits enforced by the compiler:** data races are compile errors.
|
||||
- **`Arc<T>` for shared, `Mutex<T>`/`RwLock<T>` for mutation:** the lock is explicit.
|
||||
- **`tokio` for async:** `async fn`, `.await`. Bounded channels (`tokio::sync::mpsc::channel(N)`).
|
||||
- **`Drop` for cleanup:** no leaked resources (no `defer` needed; RAII).
|
||||
|
||||
```rust
|
||||
async fn fetch_with_timeout(url: &str) -> Result<Response, Error> {
|
||||
tokio::time::timeout(Duration::from_secs(5), fetch(url)).await??;
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Immutability (Concurrency P1 Immutability by Default)
|
||||
|
||||
- **Variables are immutable by default:** `let x = 5;` not `let mut x = 5;`.
|
||||
- **`&T` (shared ref) over `&mut T` (exclusive ref):** the compiler enforces aliasing rules.
|
||||
- **Interior mutability (`Cell`/`RefCell`) only when needed:** not as a default.
|
||||
|
||||
## Nullability (C1)
|
||||
|
||||
- **`Option<T>`, not nullable pointers:** `Some(x)` / `None`. The compiler enforces handling.
|
||||
- **No `null`:** Rust has no null. `Option::None` is the explicit absence.
|
||||
- **`?` on `Option` for propagation:** `fn get_name(user: User) -> Option<String> { user.profile?.name }`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Testing (Testing)
|
||||
|
||||
- **`#[test]` + `#[cfg(test)] mod tests`:** tests co-located.
|
||||
- **`proptest` or `quickcheck` for property-based tests:** edge case coverage (P9).
|
||||
- **`tokio::test` for async tests.**
|
||||
- **No `SystemTime::now()` in tests:** inject an `Instant` or a mock clock.
|
||||
|
||||
## Observability (Observability P1)
|
||||
|
||||
- **`tracing` crate:** structured logs + spans + traces. Not `println!`.
|
||||
- **`tracing::instrument` on functions:** automatic span context.
|
||||
- **`tracing-subscriber` with JSON format:** structured output for production.
|
||||
|
||||
## Tooling (DevOps P2)
|
||||
|
||||
- **`cargo clippy`:** lint. `cargo clippy -- -D warnings` in CI.
|
||||
- **`cargo fmt`:** format.
|
||||
- **`cargo test`:** tests. `cargo test --release` for perf-sensitive.
|
||||
- **Committed `Cargo.lock`:** reproducible builds (even for libraries, for CI).

# TypeScript — Language Application
|
||||
|
||||
> How Atelier's domain principles apply in TypeScript specifically. Derives from `domains/` docs; this file is the language-specific lens.
|
||||
|
||||
## Type System (C1 Correctness, Data P7 Type Fidelity)
|
||||
|
||||
- **Strict mode on:** `strict: true` in `tsconfig.json`. No `any` without justification.
|
||||
- **No `any`, no `unknown` without narrowing:** `any` disables the type checker. `unknown` requires narrowing before use.
|
||||
- **Discriminated unions over enums:** `type Status = { type: 'pending' } | { type: 'paid'; amount: number }` — exhaustive, type-safe.
|
||||
- **Branded types for domain IDs:** `type UserId = string & { __brand: 'UserId' }` — prevents passing a `PostId` where a `UserId` is expected.
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
type UserId = string & { readonly __brand: 'UserId' };
|
||||
function getUser(id: UserId): User { ... }
|
||||
// getUser("abc") // type error
|
||||
// getUser("abc" as UserId) // ok
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Error Handling (Errors P1 Errors are Data)
|
||||
|
||||
- **Result type over exceptions for expected failures:**
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
type Result<T, E> = { ok: true; value: T } | { ok: false; error: E };
|
||||
```
|
||||
- **Exceptions for programmer errors:** null deref, invariant violation. Not for "user not found."
|
||||
- **Never `any` in catch:** `catch (e: unknown)` then narrow with `instanceof` or a type guard.
|
||||
|
||||
## Async (Concurrency P7 Cancellation Support, P8 Timeout Discipline)
|
||||
|
||||
- **`Promise` with `AbortSignal`:** every async function accepts an optional `AbortSignal` for cancellation.
|
||||
- **`Promise.race` with a timeout:** never `await` without a timeout for external calls.
|
||||
- **No `await` in a hot loop without batching:** use `Promise.all` for parallelism.
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
async function fetchWithTimeout(url: string, signal?: AbortSignal): Promise<Response> {
|
||||
const timeout = new AbortController();
|
||||
signal?.addEventListener('abort', () => timeout.abort());
|
||||
const timer = setTimeout(() => timeout.abort(), 5000);
|
||||
try {
|
||||
return await fetch(url, { signal: timeout.signal });
|
||||
} finally {
|
||||
clearTimeout(timer);
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Immutability (Concurrency P1 Immutability by Default)
|
||||
|
||||
- **`readonly` on arrays and objects:** `readonly string[]`, `readonly { id: string }`.
|
||||
- **`as const` for literals:** `const status = 'pending' as const`.
|
||||
- **Immutable update patterns:** `spread` or `Immer` for nested updates, never mutation.
|
||||
|
||||
## Nullability (C1 Correctness)
|
||||
|
||||
- **`strictNullChecks: true`:** `null` and `undefined` are distinct and must be handled.
|
||||
- **No `!` (non-null assertion) without justification:** it disables the null check. Use narrowing.
|
||||
- **`optional chaining` over `&&`:** `user?.profile?.name` not `user && user.profile && user.profile.name`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Testing (Testing)
|
||||
|
||||
- **Jest or Vitest** with `ts-jest`/`vite`. Test files co-located: `user.ts` → `user.test.ts`.
|
||||
- **Factories over fixtures:** `makeUser()` returns a fresh object per test.
|
||||
- **No `Date.now()` in tests:** inject the clock. `jest.useFakeTimers()` or pass a `now` function.
|
||||
|
||||
## Observability (Observability P1 Structured by Default)
|
||||
|
||||
- **Structured logger:** `pino` or `winston` in JSON mode. Not `console.log`.
|
||||
- **`request_id` via middleware:** propagated on every log in the request.
|
||||
- **No secrets in logs:** the logger redacts known secret fields (`pino` redact option).
|
||||
|
||||
## Tooling (DevOps P2 Automation)
|
||||
|
||||
- **ESLint with `@typescript-eslint`** — strict ruleset.
|
||||
- **Prettier** — format, not debated.
|
||||
- **`tsc --noEmit` in CI** — type check without emitting.
|
||||
- **`npm ci`** — lockfile install, not `npm install`.

# Domain Coverage
|
||||
|
||||
> Where each core principle applies across the domains. The complement to `principles-matrix.md`: the matrix maps domain → core; this maps core → domains.
|
||||
|
||||
## Core Principle Coverage
|
||||
|
||||
| Core Principle | Domains that derive from it | Count |
|
||||
|----------------|---------------------------|-------|
|
||||
| C1 Correctness | All 11 (security, data, api, testing, performance, observability, errors, uiux, documentation, concurrency, devops) | Universal |
|
||||
| C2 Clarity | uiux, api, data, testing, observability, errors, documentation, devops | 8 |
|
||||
| C3 Simplicity | security, data, testing, performance, documentation, concurrency, devops | 7 |
|
||||
| C4 Locality | testing, concurrency | 2 |
|
||||
| C5 Reversibility | api, data, uiux, concurrency, devops | 5 |
|
||||
| C6 Composability | api, security, observability, errors, documentation, concurrency | 6 |
|
||||
| C7 Observability | api, data, testing, performance, observability, errors, devops | 7 |
|
||||
| C8 Economy | security, testing, performance, observability, concurrency | 5 |
|
||||
|
||||
## Interpretation
|
||||
|
||||
- **C1 Correctness** is universal — every domain derives from it. This confirms C1 as the floor.
|
||||
- **C4 Locality** is the narrowest (2 domains: testing independence, concurrency boundaries). Locality is inherently domain-specific; not a gap.
|
||||
- **C2 Clarity** and **C7 Observability** are the next-most-derived, confirming they are cross-cutting concerns.
|
||||
- **C6 Composability** appears in 6 domains — it is most relevant where parts combine (api, errors, observability, documentation, concurrency) and least relevant where the unit is monolithic.
|
||||
|
||||
## Per-Domain Coverage
|
||||
|
||||
| Domain | C-rules derived from | Notes |
|
||||
|--------|---------------------|-------|
|
||||
| UI/UX | C1, C2, C3, C5, C7 | User-facing; clarity + reversibility |
|
||||
| API | C1, C2, C3, C5, C6, C7 | Contracts; composability + stability |
|
||||
| Security | C1, C3, C6, C7, C8 | 8/10 non-tradeable (promoted to C1) |
|
||||
| Data | C1, C2, C3, C5, C7 | Truth + migration safety |
|
||||
| Testing | C1, C2, C3, C4, C7, C8 | Independence (C4) is unique |
|
||||
| Performance | C1, C3, C6, C7, C8 | Economy + measurement |
|
||||
| Observability | C1, C2, C6, C7, C8 | Self-referential (P7 derives from C7) |
|
||||
| Errors | C1, C2, C5, C6, C7 | Errors as data + reversibility |
|
||||
| Documentation | C1, C2, C3, C5, C6 | Docs-as-code + living docs |
|
||||
| Concurrency | C1, C3, C4, C5, C6, C7, C8 | Broadest derivation; locality (C4) unique |
|
||||
| DevOps | C1, C2, C3, C5, C7 | Reproducibility + rollback |
|
||||
|
||||
## Gaps and Notes
|
||||
|
||||
- No domain derives from only one C-rule. The minimum is 4 (UI/UX: C1, C2, C3, C5, C7 — actually 5). Every domain is multi-rooted.
|
||||
- **Concurrency** has the broadest derivation (7 C-rules) — it touches the most core concerns.
|
||||
- **UI/UX** and **API** are the most user-facing; they emphasize C2 (Clarity) heavily.
|
||||
- **Security** is the only domain with explicit non-tradeable declarations; this promotes 8 of its rules to C1-equivalent per `core/conflict-resolution.md` §6.

# Agent Pre-Completion Checklist
|
||||
|
||||
> Every AI agent runs this checklist before completing a task. If any item fails, fix it before finishing. This is the gate between "the code is written" and "the task is done."
|
||||
|
||||
## How to Use This
|
||||
|
||||
1. Read the relevant `domains/<x>/first-principles.md` before starting the task.
|
||||
2. Implement the task.
|
||||
3. Run this checklist. Every item must pass (or be explicitly justified).
|
||||
4. If an item fails, fix it. Do not "skip" without a written reason.
|
||||
|
||||
## Core Principles Checklist (C1–C8)
|
||||
|
||||
### C1 Correctness
|
||||
- [ ] Does the code do what the task asked, completely?
|
||||
- [ ] Does it handle the specified edge cases? (nulls, empties, max, min)
|
||||
- [ ] Does it handle the failure cases? (errors, timeouts, invalid input)
|
||||
- [ ] Is there a test that would fail if the code were wrong?
|
||||
|
||||
### C2 Clarity
|
||||
- [ ] Can a stranger read this and understand it without asking you?
|
||||
- [ ] Are names intent-revealing? (No `data`, `temp`, `x`, `doStuff`)
|
||||
- [ ] Do comments explain *why*, not *what*?
|
||||
- [ ] Is the structure scannable? (Short functions, clear sections)
|
||||
|
||||
### C3 Simplicity
|
||||
- [ ] Is this the simplest solution that is complete?
|
||||
- [ ] Is there dead code? (Unreachable branches, unused variables)
|
||||
- [ ] Is there premature abstraction? (An interface with one implementation)
|
||||
- [ ] Could 50 lines do what 200 lines do?
|
||||
|
||||
### C4 Locality
|
||||
- [ ] Does related logic live together?
|
||||
- [ ] Are side effects near their causes?
|
||||
- [ ] Does a change to this feature require touching distant files?
|
||||
|
||||
### C5 Reversibility
|
||||
- [ ] Is this change undoable? (migration has a `down`, deploy has a rollback)
|
||||
- [ ] Did I avoid irreversible actions without explicit confirmation?
|
||||
- [ ] Is state recoverable? (Can the user get back to where they were?)
|
||||
|
||||
### C6 Composability
|
||||
- [ ] Does this component/function do one thing?
|
||||
- [ ] Is the boundary (props/args/return) explicit and typed?
|
||||
- [ ] Can this be reused in a new context without modification?
|
||||
|
||||
### C7 Observability
|
||||
- [ ] Are there logs for significant events?
|
||||
- [ ] Do errors carry enough context to debug? (request ID, user, action)
|
||||
- [ ] Are there metrics for the operation? (count, latency)
|
||||
- [ ] Are there no secrets in logs?
|
||||
|
||||
### C8 Economy
|
||||
- [ ] Is memory bounded? (No unbounded growth, no loading everything)
|
||||
- [ ] Is time bounded? (No N+1, no blocking without timeout)
|
||||
- [ ] Are resources released? (file handles, connections, locks)
|
||||
|
||||
## Domain-Specific Triggers
|
||||
|
||||
If the task touches a domain, run that domain's checklist:
|
||||
|
||||
### If UI/UX (see `domains/uiux/`)
|
||||
- [ ] Every interactive element is keyboard-reachable
|
||||
- [ ] Every image has alt text (or marked decorative)
|
||||
- [ ] Every form control has a label
|
||||
- [ ] Focus is visible
|
||||
- [ ] No color-only information
|
||||
- [ ] Components use design tokens, not raw values
|
||||
|
||||
### If API (see `domains/api/`)
|
||||
- [ ] Endpoints are nouns, plural, lowercase-hyphenated
|
||||
- [ ] Status codes are correct (200/201/204/4xx/5xx per semantics)
|
||||
- [ ] Errors are structured (code, message, request_id)
|
||||
- [ ] Input is validated against a schema
|
||||
- [ ] Auth is required by default
|
||||
|
||||
### If Security (see `domains/security/`)
|
||||
- [ ] No secrets in code, logs, URLs, or error messages
|
||||
- [ ] Input is validated at the boundary
|
||||
- [ ] Output is encoded for its context
|
||||
- [ ] Crypto uses vetted libraries (no MD5/SHA1 for security)
|
||||
- [ ] Authorization is checked, not assumed
|
||||
|
||||
### If Data (see `domains/data/`)
|
||||
- [ ] Schema reflects the domain (not the application)
|
||||
- [ ] Constraints are in the schema (NOT NULL, UNIQUE, FK)
|
||||
- [ ] Migration has an `up` and a `down`
|
||||
- [ ] Types are domain-accurate (UUID, TIMESTAMPTZ, DECIMAL for money)
|
||||
- [ ] No `SELECT *`; no N+1
|
||||
|
||||
### If Testing (see `domains/testing/`)
|
||||
- [ ] Tests are independent (order doesn't matter)
|
||||
- [ ] Tests are deterministic (no `Date.now()`, no `random()`)
|
||||
- [ ] Edge cases are covered (empty, single, max, invalid)
|
||||
- [ ] A failing test names the problem specifically
|
||||
|
||||
### If Performance (see `domains/performance/`)
|
||||
- [ ] No unbounded operations (loops, allocations, queries)
|
||||
- [ ] No N+1 queries
|
||||
- [ ] Every external call has a timeout
|
||||
- [ ] Caches have invalidation strategies
|
||||
|
||||
### If Observability (see `domains/observability/`)
|
||||
- [ ] Logs are structured (JSON, fields)
|
||||
- [ ] Every request has a correlation ID
|
||||
- [ ] No high-cardinality labels in metrics
|
||||
- [ ] Alerts have runbooks
|
||||
|
||||
### If Errors (see `domains/errors/`)
|
||||
- [ ] Errors are not swallowed silently
|
||||
- [ ] Errors are specific (not generic "something went wrong")
|
||||
- [ ] Errors preserve context (where, when, why, what)
|
||||
- [ ] Recovery is attempted when possible; fail fast when not
|
||||
|
||||
### If Concurrency (see `domains/concurrency/`)
|
||||
- [ ] Shared state is minimized; immutability preferred
|
||||
- [ ] Locks are minimal in scope
|
||||
- [ ] Queues are bounded
|
||||
- [ ] Every blocking call has a timeout
|
||||
- [ ] Cancellation is supported
|
||||

### If DevOps (see `domains/devops/`)
|
||||
- [ ] The pipeline is the process (no manual steps)
|
||||
- [ ] Rollback path is known
|
||||
- [ ] Config is in code, not on the server
|
||||
- [ ] Environments are parity (dev = prod modulo data)
|
||||
|
||||
## Final Gate
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] Have I read the relevant domain's first-principles?
|
||||
- [ ] Have I run the domain-specific checklist?
|
||||
- [ ] Have I run the core checklist?
|
||||
- [ ] Are all failures either fixed or explicitly justified in the task notes?
|
||||
|
||||
If any unchecked item is not justified, the task is not complete. Do not mark done.

||||
|
||||
> A catalog of violations. Each entry names the principle it breaches. Use this to recognize and reject patterns on sight.
|

# Peer Review Checklist
|
||||
|
||||
> For human reviewers. Run this when reviewing a PR or a change. Complements `agent-checklist.md` (which the author ran before finishing).
|
||||
|
||||
## Purpose
|
||||
|
||||
A peer review is a second set of eyes on correctness, clarity, and completeness. It is not a gatekeeping ritual; it is a quality multiplier. The author ran the agent checklist; the reviewer checks what the author could not see.
|
||||
|
||||
## The Review
|
||||
|
||||
### Understanding (read first, judge never)
|
||||
- [ ] Read the PR description. What is the change trying to do?
|
||||
- [ ] Read the linked issue/spec. Does the change address it?
|
||||
- [ ] Read the changed files in order. Do not jump to judgment.
|
||||
|
||||
### Correctness (C1)
|
||||
- [ ] Does the change do what it claims?
|
||||
- [ ] Are there edge cases the author missed? (Comment, don't fix in review)
|
||||
- [ ] Are there failure cases unhandled?
|
||||
- [ ] Are the tests testing the right thing? (A test that cannot fail is theater)
|
||||
- [ ] Would this code fail in production? (Different from "does it pass CI")
|
||||
|
||||
### Clarity (C2)
|
||||
- [ ] Can you understand the change without asking the author?
|
||||
- [ ] Are names intent-revealing?
|
||||
- [ ] Is there a comment that explains *why* where the *why* is non-obvious?
|
||||
- [ ] Is the diff minimal? (Unrelated changes are review noise)
|
||||
|
||||
### Simplicity (C3)
|
||||
- [ ] Is there dead code introduced?
|
||||
- [ ] Is there premature abstraction?
|
||||
- [ ] Could the change be simpler? (Suggest, don't block unless egregious)
|
||||
- [ ] Is there a simpler approach the author may not have considered?
|
||||
|
||||
### Locality (C4)
|
||||
- [ ] Are related changes grouped?
|
||||
- [ ] Are unrelated changes separated (different PRs)?
|
||||
- [ ] Does a change require touching distant files unnecessarily?
|
||||
|
||||
### Reversibility (C5)
|
||||
- [ ] Is the change undoable?
|
||||
- [ ] Are there migrations? Do they have rollbacks?
|
||||
- [ ] Are there breaking changes? If so, is there a deprecation path?
|
||||
|
||||
### Composability (C6)
|
||||
- [ ] Does the change respect existing boundaries?
|
||||
- [ ] Does it introduce coupling that should be an interface?
|
||||
- [ ] Is the new code reusable, or one-off?
|
||||
|
||||
### Observability (C7)
|
||||
- [ ] Are there logs/metrics for the new behavior?
|
||||
- [ ] Are errors structured and traceable?
|
||||
- [ ] Are there no secrets in logs?
|
||||
|
||||
### Economy (C8)
|
||||
- [ ] Are there unbounded operations?
|
||||
- [ ] Is memory/time bounded?
|
||||
- [ ] Is the cost proportional to the need?
|
||||
|
||||
## Domain-Specific (if applicable)
|
||||
|
||||
Run the relevant domain section from `agent-checklist.md` (UI/UX, API, Security, Data, Testing, Performance, Observability, Errors, Concurrency, DevOps). The author ran it; the reviewer verifies.
|
||||
|
||||
## Review Etiquette
|
||||
|
||||
- **Comment, don't command.** "This could be X" not "Change this to X."
|
||||
- **Distinguish blocking from suggestions.** "Blocking: correctness bug. Suggestion: naming."
|
||||
- **Praise good code.** Reviews are not just for finding problems.
|
||||
- **Don't review style the linter should catch.** Fix the linter, not the PR.
|
||||
- **Ask questions.** "Why this approach?" often reveals more than "This is wrong."
|
||||
|
||||
## Approving
|
||||
|
||||
- Approve when: the change is correct, clear, and complete. Minor suggestions can be left for the author.
|
||||
- Request changes when: there is a correctness bug, a missing test, or a clarity problem that blocks understanding.
|
||||
- Reject when: the change should not exist (wrong direction, duplicate, scope-violating).
|
||||
|
||||
## What This Checklist is Not
|
||||
|
||||
- Not a style guide. Style is automated (linter, formatter).
|
||||
- Not a gatekeeping tool. The goal is quality, not perfection.
|
||||
- Not a substitute for the author's own checklist. The author runs `agent-checklist.md` first; this is the second pass.
