# Clean Architecture Monorepo Template Turborepo + pnpm monorepo organised by vertical features, with an **agent-first workflow** and **five conformance gates**. This template is built for **agent-driven development**. [Sandcastle](https://github.com/mattpocock/sandcastle) is the orchestration substrate; `pnpm work dispatch` is the entry point. See [ADR-019](./docs/decisions/adr-019-sandcastle-for-agent-orchestration.md) for the decision rationale and [`docs/guides/runbook.md`](./docs/guides/runbook.md) for end-to-end usage. ## Start here Read [`docs/guides/runbook.md`](./docs/guides/runbook.md) — day-1 onboarding (prerequisites, env vars, daily commands, troubleshooting, **Using Sandcastle for agent dispatch**). ## Quick reference ```bash pnpm install # Install + auto-wire husky pre-commit hooks pnpm dev # All dev servers (web-next:3000, cms:3001, web-tanstack:3002, storybook:6006) pnpm test # All tests pnpm typecheck # TypeScript across all packages pnpm lint # ESLint (incl. 8 conformance/* rules) pnpm conformance # Cross-feature event closure pnpm fallow # Whole-codebase: dead exports, dupes, complexity pnpm turbo boundaries # Workspace dependency graph pnpm work status # docs/work/ epic + story state docker compose up -d # Start PostgreSQL ``` ## Sandcastle setup (one-time) Required only if you'll use `pnpm work dispatch --execute` or `pnpm work decompose --execute` (agent dispatch). The dispatch loop runs the implementer / reviewer / decomposer agents inside an isolated Docker sandbox; the image is built once locally. ```bash # 1. Ensure Docker is running docker info >/dev/null # 2. Build the sandcastle image (reads .sandcastle/Dockerfile) pnpm exec sandcastle docker build-image # Tags as: sandcastle:template-vertical (derived from the root package.json name) # 3. Pick ONE auth path: # (a) Recommended — Claude Pro/Max subscription: claude login # one-time; ~/.claude/ becomes the auth source # (b) Fallback — API key: export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=sk-ant-... ``` **macOS users**: subscription auth needs an extra step. Claude Code stores credentials in the macOS Keychain by default, so the host's `~/.claude/` directory has no `.credentials.json` for the sandbox to read. Two workarounds: ```bash # (preferred for macOS subscription users) extract keychain -> file once: security find-generic-password -s "Claude Code-credentials" -a "$USER" -w \ > ~/.claude/.credentials.json chmod 600 ~/.claude/.credentials.json # Trade-off: credentials now live as a plaintext file at the path; refresh # when the token expires (re-run the same one-liner). The file is in your # home directory — chmod 600 + your home permissions are the protection. # OR fall back to API key — no host changes needed: export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=sk-ant-... ``` Linux + WSL users with `claude login` write `~/.claude/.credentials.json` directly; nothing extra needed. After the image exists, dispatch flows work without further setup: ```bash pnpm work dispatch # print plan (safe anywhere) pnpm work dispatch --execute # actually dispatch via sandcastle pnpm work decompose # print decompose plan pnpm work decompose --execute # decompose an approved PRD ``` To rebuild the image after changing `.sandcastle/Dockerfile`: ```bash pnpm exec sandcastle docker remove-image pnpm exec sandcastle docker build-image ``` See [`docs/guides/runbook.md` → Using Sandcastle](./docs/guides/runbook.md#using-sandcastle-for-agent-dispatch) for the full dispatch lifecycle, auth modes, and troubleshooting. ## Documentation map - **[`docs/guides/runbook.md`](./docs/guides/runbook.md)** — start here - **[`CLAUDE.md`](./CLAUDE.md)** — full conventions reference - **[`AGENTS.md`](./AGENTS.md)** — package map + boundary rules - **[`docs/guides/conformance-quickref.md`](./docs/guides/conformance-quickref.md)** — manifest + 5-gate daily reference - **[`docs/architecture/agent-first-workflow-and-conformance.md`](./docs/architecture/agent-first-workflow-and-conformance.md)** — full design - **[`docs/architecture/feature-conformance-explainer.html`](./docs/architecture/feature-conformance-explainer.html)** — interactive explainer ## Scaffolding ```bash pnpm turbo gen feature # Scaffold a feature (manifest + contracts + tests) pnpm turbo gen event # Event contract or handler (requires gen core-package events) pnpm turbo gen job # Background job pnpm turbo gen realtime # Realtime channel (requires gen core-package realtime) pnpm turbo gen core-package # Optional core: events / realtime / trpc / ui / audit pnpm turbo gen core-ui-component # Atomic-design component ``` **Generator-first is non-negotiable** — hand-rolled feature/event/job/realtime/component code is rejected by reviewer agents and may fail the CI scaffold-drift check. ## Optional packages Five core packages scaffold on demand: ```bash pnpm turbo gen core-package realtime # Socket.IO realtime layer (ADR-016) pnpm turbo gen core-package events # Cross-feature events + Payload jobs (ADR-015) pnpm turbo gen core-package trpc # tRPC server setup pnpm turbo gen core-package ui # Design system pnpm turbo gen core-package audit # DPA-compliant audit logging (ADR-018) ``` See [`docs/architecture/template-tiers.md`](./docs/architecture/template-tiers.md) for the full tier list.
