Danijel Martinek 0e6bbbf8b7 refactor(docs): consolidate scaffolding/ into guides/
The docs/scaffolding/ directory held two how-to guides (core-package
+ core-ui-component generator references). Both are operationally
identical in shape to docs/guides/scaffolding-a-feature.md — they
just live in a separate top-level docs directory. Consolidating
removes one directory + makes the three scaffolding guides
discoverable as siblings.

Moves (via git mv to preserve history):
  docs/scaffolding/core-package-generator.md
    -> docs/guides/scaffolding-core-package.md
  docs/scaffolding/core-ui-component-generator.md
    -> docs/guides/scaffolding-core-ui-component.md

Empty docs/scaffolding/ directory removed.

AGENTS.md (only consumer of the old paths) updated to point at the
new locations.

core-ui component generator

pnpm turbo gen core-ui-component scaffolds an atomic-design component (atom / molecule / organism) into packages/core-ui/ using the established 4-file pattern.

Prerequisite: packages/core-ui/ must exist. If your project started from the slim template, scaffold core-ui first via pnpm turbo gen core-package ui.

Usage

pnpm turbo gen core-ui-component
# → Tier: (use arrow keys)
#      atom
#       molecule
#       organism
# → Component name (PascalCase, e.g. Spinner):
#      Spinner

The generator emits 4 files into packages/core-ui/src/<tier>s/<kebab-name>/:

File Purpose
<kebab-name>.tsx Component implementation (forwardRef + cn + className passthrough)
<kebab-name>.stories.tsx Storybook stories (Meta + StoryObj + one Default story; tier-prefixed title)
<kebab-name>.test.tsx Vitest + Testing Library smoke tests (renders, className passthrough, ref forwarding)
index.ts Barrel that re-exports the component + Props type

The new export is also spliced into packages/core-ui/src/<tier>s/index.ts immediately after the // <gen:<tier>s> anchor, so the component is reachable from the tier barrel (and transitively from the root @repo/core-ui export) without any manual wiring.

Generated scaffold (example: pnpm turbo gen core-ui-component → atom → Spinner)

packages/core-ui/src/atoms/spinner/
├── spinner.tsx           # forwardRef<HTMLDivElement, SpinnerProps>
├── spinner.stories.tsx   # title: "Atoms/Spinner"
├── spinner.test.tsx      # 3 smoke tests
└── index.ts              # export { Spinner, type SpinnerProps }

And in packages/core-ui/src/atoms/index.ts:

// <gen:atoms>
export { Spinner, type SpinnerProps } from "./spinner/index";
export { Button, type ButtonProps } from "./button/index";
// ...

Customizing the scaffold

The generated component is a minimal <div> passthrough — change the element/type and add variants/sizes to fit. The existing button.tsx in src/atoms/button/ is the canonical reference for a richer component with variant and size props plus variant lookup tables.

Verification

After scaffolding:

pnpm --filter @repo/core-ui lint typecheck test
pnpm dev --filter @repo/storybook   # view the new component in Storybook

The Storybook stories glob (packages/core-ui/src/**/*.stories.@(ts|tsx)) picks up the new file automatically — no Storybook config changes needed.
