12-task implementation plan for the runtime boot-time check of the conformance system. Reifies the phantom-type brands from milestone i as non-enumerable runtime markers via Object.defineProperty, and ships assertFeatureConformance(container, manifest, symbols, ctx) which walks the manifest, resolves each use case from the feature's container, and throws ConformanceError synchronously when a binding is missing a required brand. Per-feature self-assertion: each bindProductionX(ctx) calls assertFeatureConformance at its tail, so the boot check runs once per feature and is forward-compatible with future apps wiring those binders. Also bundles the two forward-looking items the milestone-i reviewer flagged (re-export authManifest from auth root barrel; TODO breadcrumb in withAudit for future automation).

Conformance Milestone ii — assertFeatureConformance + boot wiring
For agentic workers: REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: Use
superpowers:subagent-driven-development(recommended) orsuperpowers:executing-plansto implement this plan task-by-task. Steps use checkbox (- [ ]) syntax for tracking.
Goal: Ship the boot-time runtime check of the conformance system. withSpan / withCapture / withAudit attach non-enumerable runtime markers; assertFeatureConformance(container, manifest, symbols, ctx) resolves each manifest-declared use case from the feature's container and verifies the bound function carries the required markers. Each feature's bindProductionX(ctx) self-asserts at the tail; pnpm dev refuses to boot on drift.
Architecture: The phantom-type seam shipped in milestone i becomes a reified type seam at runtime. Each wrapper attaches its brand as a non-enumerable, non-configurable property (Object.defineProperty(wrapped, "__instrumented", { value: true, enumerable: false, writable: false, configurable: false })). Predicate helpers (isInstrumented, isCaptured, isAudited) read those markers. assertFeatureConformance walks the manifest's useCases, resolves each binding by the symbol map the binder declares inline, and throws ConformanceError synchronously when a binding is missing a required brand. Per-feature self-assertion (called at the end of bindProductionAuth(ctx)) is forward-compatible: when cms and web-tanstack eventually wire bindProductionAuth, they inherit the boot check for free.
Tech Stack: TypeScript (strict), Vitest, Inversify (existing DI). Object.defineProperty for non-enumerable runtime markers. No new dependencies.

Task 1: Re-export authManifest from auth root barrel
Surfaces the manifest at the package boundary so future stories (and the boot-assertion's caller) can read it without a deep import.
Files:
-
Modify:
packages/auth/src/index.ts -
Step 1: Append the re-export
Add these lines at the bottom of packages/auth/src/index.ts:
// Feature conformance manifest (added in conformance milestone i, exposed
// here in milestone ii so the boot-time assertion and future tooling can
// read the contract from the package boundary).
export { authManifest, type AuthManifest } from "./feature.manifest";
- Step 2: Verify typecheck passes
Run: pnpm --filter @repo/auth typecheck
Expected: PASS.
- Step 3: Commit
git add packages/auth/src/index.ts
git commit -m "feat(auth): re-export authManifest + AuthManifest from package root"
Task 2: Add TODO breadcrumb in withAudit
The withAudit wrapper currently does nothing but cast (with a void auditLog; to silence unused). Leave a clear forward pointer for the future story that wires automated audit recording.
Files:
-
Modify:
packages/core-audit/src/with-audit.ts -
Step 1: Replace the function body's existing comment block
In packages/core-audit/src/with-audit.ts, the body currently looks like:
export function withAudit<Args extends unknown[], R>(
// The auditLog is part of the signature for two reasons: (1) callers must
// pass it at bind time, ensuring the dep is available, and (2) future
// versions of this wrapper will use it to emit audit events from the
// declarative manifest entry directly.
auditLog: IAuditLog,
fn: (...args: Args) => Promise<R>,
): Audited<(...args: Args) => Promise<R>> {
void auditLog;
return fn as Audited<(...args: Args) => Promise<R>>;
}
Adjust the inline comment to point at the future story that wires automated recording. Replace ONLY the inline comment on auditLog (do not touch the function body yet — Task 7 changes the body):
export function withAudit<Args extends unknown[], R>(
// TODO(conformance milestone iii+): wire automated recording from manifest
// `audits[]` declarations. For now, the wrapper exists to:
// (1) require callers to pass the auditLog at bind time (dep is available)
// (2) attach the `__audited` brand so the boot-time assertion can verify
// mutating use cases were bound through the audit-aware path.
auditLog: IAuditLog,
fn: (...args: Args) => Promise<R>,
): Audited<(...args: Args) => Promise<R>> {
void auditLog;
return fn as Audited<(...args: Args) => Promise<R>>;
}
The function body is unchanged in this task; we only enriched the comment.
- Step 2: Verify typecheck and tests still pass
pnpm --filter @repo/core-audit typecheck
pnpm --filter @repo/core-audit test with-audit
Both PASS, no regressions.
- Step 3: Commit
git add packages/core-audit/src/with-audit.ts
git commit -m "docs(core-audit): TODO breadcrumb for future audit recording automation"
Task 3: Scaffold docs/work record for story 02
Files:
-
Create:
docs/work/conformance-system-v1/02-boot-assertions/_story.md -
Step 1: Write the story file
Create docs/work/conformance-system-v1/02-boot-assertions/_story.md with EXACTLY this content:
---
id: 02-boot-assertions
epic: conformance-system-v1

type: technical-story
status: in-progress
feature: core-shared
depends-on: [01-define-feature-helper]

## Goal
Runtime boot-time verification that every manifest-declared use case is bound
through the brand-attaching wrappers. Each feature's `bindProductionX(ctx)`
self-asserts at the tail; `pnpm dev` refuses to boot on drift.
## Why
Type casts can mask unwrapped factories; manifest edits can drift from
binders without TypeScript noticing. Boot assertions catch what the type
system can't see — at zero cost during the inner agent feedback loop, and
synchronously at startup so failures fire loudly.
## Done when
- `withSpan`, `withCapture`, `withAudit` attach non-enumerable runtime markers
matching the type-level brand names
- `assertFeatureConformance(container, manifest, symbols, ctx)` resolves each
manifest use case and throws `ConformanceError` on a missing brand
- `auth.bindProductionAuth(ctx)` self-asserts at the tail
- `pnpm dev` boots cleanly for the existing `auth` wiring; rebinding `signIn`
with an unwrapped factory causes `pnpm dev` to throw at startup
## In scope
- Runtime marker attachment via `Object.defineProperty(fn, "__brand", { … })`
(non-enumerable, non-writable, non-configurable)
- `isInstrumented` / `isCaptured` / `isAudited` predicates
- `ConformanceError` class (extends `Error`)
- `assertFeatureConformance(container, manifest, symbols, ctx)` helper
- Wiring into `packages/auth/src/di/bind-production.ts` (tail-of-binder
self-assertion)
- `withAudit` upgraded from passthrough to a thin wrapper that attaches its
runtime brand without changing observable behaviour
## Out of scope
- `assertConformance` over a multi-feature container collection at the app's
`bindAll()` (current per-feature self-assertion is sufficient and
forward-compatible)
- Wiring boot assertions into `cms` and `web-tanstack` — neither has a
`bind-production.ts` yet; they'll inherit the check whenever they grow one
- Manifests for `blog`, `media`, `navigation`, `marketing-pages` (their
`bindProductionX` stays unchanged in this story)
- Automated audit recording driven by manifest `audits[]` declarations
(deferred to a later story)
## Tasks
- [ ] Re-export `authManifest` from auth root barrel
- [ ] TODO breadcrumb in `withAudit` pointing at future automation
- [ ] Runtime marker helpers (`attachBrand`, `isInstrumented`, `isCaptured`, `isAudited`)
- [ ] `withSpan` attaches runtime `__instrumented` marker
- [ ] `withCapture` attaches runtime `__captured` marker
- [ ] `withAudit` wraps + attaches runtime `__audited` marker
- [ ] `ConformanceError` class
- [ ] `assertFeatureConformance` helper + tests
- [ ] Conformance barrel + subpath exports updated
- [ ] `bindProductionAuth` self-asserts at the tail
- [ ] Final verification + story closeout
- Step 2: Commit
git add docs/work/conformance-system-v1/02-boot-assertions/_story.md
git commit -m "docs(work): story 02 — assertFeatureConformance + boot wiring"
Task 4: Runtime marker helpers — attachBrand + predicates
The runtime marker module is the heart of milestone ii: a small set of helpers that attach non-enumerable brand flags and read them back. The phantom-type brand names (__instrumented, __captured, __audited) become real (non-enumerable) properties at runtime.
Files:
-
Create:
packages/core-shared/src/conformance/brand-runtime.ts -
Create:
packages/core-shared/src/conformance/brand-runtime.test.ts -
Step 1: Write the failing test
Create packages/core-shared/src/conformance/brand-runtime.test.ts with EXACTLY this content:

expect(isInstrumented(42)).toBe(false);

expect(isInstrumented({})).toBe(false);
});
});
- Step 2: Run test to verify it fails
pnpm --filter @repo/core-shared test conformance/brand-runtime
Expected: FAIL — module not found.
- Step 3: Write
brand-runtime.ts
Create packages/core-shared/src/conformance/brand-runtime.ts with EXACTLY this content:
/**
* Runtime brand attachment + predicates. The companion to the phantom-type
* brands defined in `./brands.ts`: at compile time the brand is a structural
* intersection; at runtime it is a non-enumerable, non-writable,
* non-configurable property with the same name.
*
* Why non-enumerable: a wrapped function should not leak the marker through
* `Object.keys`, `JSON.stringify`, `for…in`, or spread. The marker only
* shows up to explicit lookups via `Reflect.has` or direct property access.
*
* Why non-writable + non-configurable: the marker is meant to be permanent
* once attached. The wrapper is the only caller; the marker is a one-shot
* commitment, not a mutable flag.
*/
type Brand = "__instrumented" | "__captured" | "__audited";
/**
* Attaches the brand as a non-enumerable property on the given function.
* Returns the same reference (no allocation). Idempotent: calling twice with
* the same brand throws because the property is non-configurable — wrappers
* never double-wrap, so this is the correct safety net.
*/
export function attachBrand<F extends object>(fn: F, brand: Brand): F {
Object.defineProperty(fn, brand, {
value: true,
enumerable: false,
writable: false,
configurable: false,
});
return fn;
}
function hasBrand(fn: unknown, brand: Brand): boolean {
if (typeof fn !== "function" && (typeof fn !== "object" || fn === null)) {
return false;
}
return (fn as Record<string, unknown>)[brand] === true;
}
export function isInstrumented(fn: unknown): boolean {
return hasBrand(fn, "__instrumented");
}
export function isCaptured(fn: unknown): boolean {
return hasBrand(fn, "__captured");
}
export function isAudited(fn: unknown): boolean {
return hasBrand(fn, "__audited");
}
- Step 4: Run tests to verify they pass
pnpm --filter @repo/core-shared test conformance/brand-runtime
Expected: PASS, 6 tests.
- Step 5: Re-export from the conformance barrel
Append to packages/core-shared/src/conformance/index.ts (preserving existing exports):
export {
attachBrand,
isInstrumented,
isCaptured,
isAudited,
} from "./brand-runtime";
Re-run typecheck to confirm the barrel resolves:
pnpm --filter @repo/core-shared typecheck
PASS.
- Step 6: Commit
git add packages/core-shared/src/conformance/brand-runtime.ts packages/core-shared/src/conformance/brand-runtime.test.ts packages/core-shared/src/conformance/index.ts
git commit -m "feat(core-shared/conformance): runtime brand markers + isX predicates"
Task 5: withSpan attaches runtime __instrumented marker
Files:
-
Modify:
packages/core-shared/src/instrumentation/with-span.ts -
Modify:
packages/core-shared/src/instrumentation/with-span.test.ts -
Step 1: Add a failing runtime brand assertion to
with-span.test.ts
Append this new describe block at the END of packages/core-shared/src/instrumentation/with-span.test.ts (after the existing describe("withSpan — brand", …) block):
import { isInstrumented } from "@/conformance/brand-runtime";
describe("withSpan — runtime brand", () => {
it("attaches __instrumented as a non-enumerable property on the wrapped function", async () => {
const { tracer } = makeRecordingTracer();
const fn = async (a: number) => a + 1;
const wrapped = withSpan(tracer, { name: "test.brand", op: "use-case" }, fn);
expect(isInstrumented(wrapped)).toBe(true);
expect(Object.keys(wrapped)).not.toContain("__instrumented");
});
});
Note: place the import { isInstrumented } line near the top of the file alongside the other imports — the location of the import was shown inline above for context but it belongs in the imports block.
- Step 2: Run test to verify it fails
pnpm --filter @repo/core-shared test with-span
Expected: at least one new test FAILS — wrapped does not yet have __instrumented attached.
- Step 3: Update
with-span.tsto attach the runtime marker
Update packages/core-shared/src/instrumentation/with-span.ts. The current file (after milestone i Task 11's brand-preserving overload) needs an attachBrand call before the return. Replace the body of the implementation function so it looks like this — note the new import and the attachBrand(wrapped, "__instrumented") line:
import type { ITracer, SpanOpts } from "./tracer.interface";
import type { Instrumented } from "../conformance/brands";
import { attachBrand } from "../conformance/brand-runtime";
export function withSpan<Args extends unknown[], R, Extra extends object>(
tracer: ITracer,
opts: SpanOpts | ((args: Args) => SpanOpts),
fn: ((...args: Args) => Promise<R>) & Extra,
): Instrumented<((...args: Args) => Promise<R>) & Extra>;
export function withSpan<Args extends unknown[], R>(
tracer: ITracer,
opts: SpanOpts | ((args: Args) => SpanOpts),
fn: (...args: Args) => Promise<R>,
): Instrumented<(...args: Args) => Promise<R>>;
export function withSpan<Args extends unknown[], R>(
tracer: ITracer,
opts: SpanOpts | ((args: Args) => SpanOpts),
fn: (...args: Args) => Promise<R>,
): Instrumented<(...args: Args) => Promise<R>> {
const wrapped: (...args: Args) => Promise<R> = (...args) => {
const resolved = typeof opts === "function" ? opts(args) : opts;
return tracer.startSpan(resolved, () => fn(...args));
};
attachBrand(wrapped, "__instrumented");
// Cast is the type-level concession — the brand is now also a non-enumerable
// runtime property attached above by `attachBrand`.
return wrapped as Instrumented<(...args: Args) => Promise<R>>;
}
Important: keep BOTH overload signatures (the brand-preserving one added in milestone i Task 11 plus the original). The implementation signature is the third one shown; only the body changes (adds attachBrand call, updated comment).
- Step 4: Run typecheck and tests
pnpm --filter @repo/core-shared typecheck
pnpm --filter @repo/core-shared test with-span
Both PASS. All existing tests still green plus the new runtime brand test.
- Step 5: Commit
git add packages/core-shared/src/instrumentation/with-span.ts packages/core-shared/src/instrumentation/with-span.test.ts
git commit -m "feat(core-shared/instrumentation): withSpan attaches runtime __instrumented marker"
Task 6: withCapture attaches runtime __captured marker
Same pattern as Task 5.
Files:
-
Modify:
packages/core-shared/src/instrumentation/with-capture.ts -
Modify:
packages/core-shared/src/instrumentation/with-capture.test.ts -
Step 1: Add a failing runtime brand assertion to
with-capture.test.ts
Append this new describe block at the END of packages/core-shared/src/instrumentation/with-capture.test.ts. Also add import { isCaptured } from "@/conformance/brand-runtime"; near the other imports at the top of the file:
describe("withCapture — runtime brand", () => {
it("attaches __captured as a non-enumerable property on the wrapped function", async () => {
const logger = makeLogger();
const fn = async (a: number) => a + 1;
const wrapped = withCapture(logger, { layer: "use-case" }, fn);
expect(isCaptured(wrapped)).toBe(true);
expect(Object.keys(wrapped)).not.toContain("__captured");
});
});
- Step 2: Run test to verify it fails
pnpm --filter @repo/core-shared test with-capture
Expected: new test FAILS.
- Step 3: Update
with-capture.tsto attach the runtime marker
Modify packages/core-shared/src/instrumentation/with-capture.ts. Add the attachBrand import alongside the existing imports at the top:
import type { ILogger } from "./logger.interface";
import type { Captured } from "../conformance/brands";
import { attachBrand } from "../conformance/brand-runtime";
import { isReported, markReported } from "./reported-flag";
Keep the existing JSDoc block intact (do not modify the doc text). Modify the body of withCapture so it ends with attachBrand(wrapped, "__captured"); before the return:
export function withCapture<Args extends unknown[], R>(
logger: ILogger,
tags: Record<string, string>,
fn: (...args: Args) => Promise<R>,
): Captured<(...args: Args) => Promise<R>> {
const wrapped: (...args: Args) => Promise<R> = async (...args) => {
try {
return await fn(...args);
} catch (err) {
if (!isReported(err)) {
logger.captureException(err, { tags });
markReported(err);
}
throw err;
}
};
attachBrand(wrapped, "__captured");
return wrapped as Captured<(...args: Args) => Promise<R>>;
}
- Step 4: Run typecheck and tests
pnpm --filter @repo/core-shared typecheck
pnpm --filter @repo/core-shared test with-capture
Both PASS.
- Step 5: Commit
git add packages/core-shared/src/instrumentation/with-capture.ts packages/core-shared/src/instrumentation/with-capture.test.ts
git commit -m "feat(core-shared/instrumentation): withCapture attaches runtime __captured marker"
Task 7: withAudit wraps + attaches runtime __audited marker
Milestone i implemented withAudit as a passthrough cast (return fn as Audited<...>). For runtime brand detection that doesn't pollute the caller's fn, the wrapper now creates a thin wrapper function and attaches the marker to that new function. Observable behaviour is unchanged.
Files:
-
Modify:
packages/core-audit/src/with-audit.ts -
Modify:
packages/core-audit/src/with-audit.test.ts -
Step 1: Update the test to assert the runtime brand AND identity invariants
Replace the entire contents of packages/core-audit/src/with-audit.test.ts with:
import { describe, it, expect, expectTypeOf, vi } from "vitest";
import { withAudit, type Audited } from "@/with-audit";
import type { IAuditLog } from "@/audit-log.interface";
import { isAudited } from "@repo/core-shared/conformance";
function makeAuditLog(): IAuditLog {
return {
record: vi.fn().mockResolvedValue(undefined),
eraseSubject: vi.fn().mockResolvedValue(undefined),
};
}
describe("withAudit", () => {
it("returns an Audited<F>", () => {
const auditLog = makeAuditLog();
const fn = async (_input: { id: string }) => ({ ok: true });
const wrapped = withAudit(auditLog, fn);
expectTypeOf(wrapped).toMatchTypeOf<Audited<typeof fn>>();
});
it("attaches __audited as a non-enumerable property on the wrapped function", () => {
const auditLog = makeAuditLog();
const fn = async () => ({ ok: true });
const wrapped = withAudit(auditLog, fn);
expect(isAudited(wrapped)).toBe(true);
expect(Object.keys(wrapped)).not.toContain("__audited");
});
it("does NOT pollute the original input function with the brand", () => {
const auditLog = makeAuditLog();
const fn = async () => ({ ok: true });
const wrapped = withAudit(auditLog, fn);
expect(isAudited(fn)).toBe(false);
expect(wrapped).not.toBe(fn);
});
it("passes input and output through unchanged", async () => {
const auditLog = makeAuditLog();
const fn = async (input: { id: string }) => ({ ok: true, id: input.id });
const wrapped = withAudit(auditLog, fn);
const result = await wrapped({ id: "abc" });
expect(result).toEqual({ ok: true, id: "abc" });
});
it("propagates errors", async () => {
const auditLog = makeAuditLog();
const err = new Error("boom");
const wrapped = withAudit(auditLog, async () => {
throw err;
});
await expect(wrapped()).rejects.toBe(err);
});
});
Note the new third test: wrapped !== fn and fn is NOT branded. This pins down the wrap-not-passthrough invariant.
- Step 2: Run tests to verify they fail
pnpm --filter @repo/core-audit test with-audit
Expected: at least the new tests FAIL (the current passthrough makes wrapped === fn and isAudited(wrapped) returns false).
- Step 3: Update
with-audit.tsto wrap + attach the runtime brand
Replace the entire body of packages/core-audit/src/with-audit.ts with:
import type { IAuditLog } from "./audit-log.interface";
import { attachBrand } from "@repo/core-shared/conformance";
/**
* Phantom-type brand attached at wrap time by `withAudit`. The conformance
* system uses this as the type-level seam for mutating use cases that
* declare `audits: [...]` in their manifest — without `__audited`, the
* binding is not assignable to `ProductionUseCase<I, O, M>` when M demands
* it. At runtime the brand is a non-enumerable property attached by
* `attachBrand` from `@repo/core-shared/conformance`, so the boot-time
* assertion can verify the binding went through the audit-aware path.
*/
export type Audited<F> = F & { readonly __audited: true };
/**
* Use-case wrapper applied at DI bind time. The wrapper is a thin closure
* that forwards to `fn` unchanged and carries the `__audited` brand. The
* forward closure (instead of returning `fn` directly) keeps the brand on
* a fresh function so the caller's original `fn` is not mutated — important
* when the same factory output is used elsewhere unwrapped (dev-seed paths,
* tests).
*/
export function withAudit<Args extends unknown[], R>(
// TODO(conformance milestone iii+): wire automated recording from manifest
// `audits[]` declarations. For now, the wrapper exists to:
// (1) require callers to pass the auditLog at bind time (dep is available)
// (2) attach the `__audited` brand so the boot-time assertion can verify
// mutating use cases were bound through the audit-aware path.
auditLog: IAuditLog,
fn: (...args: Args) => Promise<R>,
): Audited<(...args: Args) => Promise<R>> {
void auditLog;
const wrapped: (...args: Args) => Promise<R> = (...args) => fn(...args);
attachBrand(wrapped, "__audited");
return wrapped as Audited<(...args: Args) => Promise<R>>;
}
attachBrand is imported from @repo/core-shared/conformance — Task 4 added that export to the conformance barrel, so the import should resolve cleanly. If it doesn't, complete Task 4 first.
- Step 4: Run typecheck and tests
pnpm --filter @repo/core-audit typecheck
pnpm --filter @repo/core-audit test with-audit
Both PASS. 5 tests green.
- Step 5: Commit
git add packages/core-audit/src/with-audit.ts packages/core-audit/src/with-audit.test.ts
git commit -m "feat(core-audit): withAudit wraps and attaches runtime __audited marker"

conformance-error.ts
Create packages/core-shared/src/conformance/conformance-error.ts with EXACTLY this content:
/**
* Thrown by `assertFeatureConformance` when a binding does not match the
* manifest's declared shape. The boot assertion lets this propagate
* synchronously so `pnpm dev` refuses to start on drift.
*/
export class ConformanceError extends Error {
constructor(message: string) {
super(message);
this.name = "ConformanceError";
// Maintain a proper prototype chain across down-compilation.
Object.setPrototypeOf(this, ConformanceError.prototype);
}
}
- Step 4: Run test to verify it passes
pnpm --filter @repo/core-shared test conformance/conformance-error
Expected: PASS, 2 tests.
- Step 5: Commit
git add packages/core-shared/src/conformance/conformance-error.ts packages/core-shared/src/conformance/conformance-error.test.ts
git commit -m "feat(core-shared/conformance): ConformanceError class"
Task 9: Extend conformance barrel with ConformanceError
Brand-runtime exports were added to the barrel in Task 4. This task adds the ConformanceError export. (assertFeatureConformance will be added in Task 10.)
Files:
-
Modify:
packages/core-shared/src/conformance/index.ts -
Step 1: Append the
ConformanceErrorre-export
Add this line to the bottom of packages/core-shared/src/conformance/index.ts:
export { ConformanceError } from "./conformance-error";
- Step 2: Verify typecheck
pnpm --filter @repo/core-shared typecheck
PASS.

- Step 2: Run test to verify it fails
pnpm --filter @repo/core-shared test conformance/assert-bindings
Expected: FAIL (module not found).
- Step 3: Write

Create packages/core-shared/src/conformance/assert-bindings.ts with EXACTLY this content:

*
* Called at the tail of each feature's `bindProductionX(ctx)` so:
* - `pnpm dev` refuses to boot on drift (synchronous throw)
* - The check runs once per feature, not per request
* - Future apps that wire `bindProductionX` inherit the check for free
*
* The `symbols` map is declared inline by the feature's binder; the manifest
* holds the contract, the binder holds the container symbols. This keeps
* the manifest free of DI-coupling while letting each feature declare its

- Step 4: Re-export
assertFeatureConformancefrom the conformance barrel
Append to packages/core-shared/src/conformance/index.ts:
export { assertFeatureConformance } from "./assert-bindings";
- Step 5: Run tests and typecheck
pnpm --filter @repo/core-shared typecheck
pnpm --filter @repo/core-shared test conformance/assert-bindings
Both PASS. 7 tests green.
- Step 6: Commit
git add packages/core-shared/src/conformance/assert-bindings.ts packages/core-shared/src/conformance/assert-bindings.test.ts packages/core-shared/src/conformance/index.ts
git commit -m "feat(core-shared/conformance): assertFeatureConformance helper"
Task 11: Wire assertFeatureConformance into bindProductionAuth
Files:
-
Modify:
packages/auth/src/di/bind-production.ts -
Step 1: Add the imports
Open packages/auth/src/di/bind-production.ts. Add these two import lines alongside the existing imports at the top:
import { assertFeatureConformance } from "@repo/core-shared/conformance";
import { authManifest } from "../feature.manifest";
(The AuthManifest type import added in milestone i Task 11 stays as-is.)
- Step 2: Call the assertion at the tail
At the very end of the bindProductionAuth(ctx) function body — AFTER all bindings have been registered and AFTER the existing // <gen:event-handlers> / // <gen:jobs> / // <gen:realtime-handlers> anchor comments — add:
// Boot-time conformance check: refuses to start if any use-case binding
// is missing a required brand (withSpan / withCapture / withAudit).
assertFeatureConformance(
authContainer,
authManifest,
{
signIn: AUTH_SYMBOLS.ISignInUseCase,
signUp: AUTH_SYMBOLS.ISignUpUseCase,
signOut: AUTH_SYMBOLS.ISignOutUseCase,
},
ctx,
);
The closing } of the function should come immediately after.
- Step 3: Run typecheck and tests
pnpm --filter @repo/auth typecheck
pnpm --filter @repo/auth test
Both PASS. 81 tests green, no regressions.
- Step 4: Verify web-next boots cleanly
pnpm --filter @repo/web-next test
PASS. The existing bind-production.test.ts exercises bindAllDevSeed / bindAllProduction; both should now silently pass the conformance assertion for auth.
- Step 5: Commit
git add packages/auth/src/di/bind-production.ts
git commit -m "feat(auth): bindProductionAuth self-asserts conformance at tail"
Task 12: Final verification + story closeout
Files:
-
Modify:
docs/work/conformance-system-v1/02-boot-assertions/_story.md -
Modify:
docs/work/conformance-system-v1/_epic.md -
Step 1: Run the full verification matrix
pnpm typecheck
pnpm test
pnpm lint
pnpm turbo boundaries
All four MUST pass. If any fail, STOP and report — do not attempt to fix in this task.
- Step 2: Tick the story's task checkboxes and flip status
Edit docs/work/conformance-system-v1/02-boot-assertions/_story.md:
(a) Change frontmatter status: in-progress → status: done.
(b) Change all 11 - [ ] task checkboxes in the Tasks section to - [x]:
## Tasks
- [x] Re-export `authManifest` from auth root barrel
- [x] TODO breadcrumb in `withAudit` pointing at future automation
- [x] Runtime marker helpers (`attachBrand`, `isInstrumented`, `isCaptured`, `isAudited`)
- [x] `withSpan` attaches runtime `__instrumented` marker
- [x] `withCapture` attaches runtime `__captured` marker
- [x] `withAudit` wraps + attaches runtime `__audited` marker
- [x] `ConformanceError` class
- [x] `assertFeatureConformance` helper + tests
- [x] Conformance barrel + subpath exports updated
- [x] `bindProductionAuth` self-asserts at the tail
- [x] Final verification + story closeout
- Step 3: Tick story 02 in the epic
Edit docs/work/conformance-system-v1/_epic.md. Change:
- [ ] 02 — `assertConformance` + boot wiring (later plan)
to:
- [x] [02 — `assertFeatureConformance` + boot wiring](02-boot-assertions/_story.md)
(Note: changes the text to a proper link AND ticks the checkbox in one edit.)
- Step 4: Commit the milestone close
git add docs/work/conformance-system-v1/02-boot-assertions/_story.md docs/work/conformance-system-v1/_epic.md
git commit -m "docs(work): close story 02 — assertFeatureConformance + boot wiring"

What comes next (separate plans)
- Milestone iii — AST-aware ESLint rules. Five rules in
@repo/core-eslint:manifest-usecase-signature-matches,no-undeclared-event-publish,no-undeclared-audit,required-cores-installed,feature-must-have-manifest. Read the manifest, walk the use-case AST, surface drift in the editor. - Milestone iv — CI drift gate.
pnpm conformanceaggregates event closure, generator drift, required-cores ↔ workspace mismatch. - Generator updates.
turbo gen featureemitsfeature.manifest.ts+ contracts stubs + test stubs in canonical shape; CI re-runs and diffs. - Apply the conformance pattern to
blog,media,navigation,marketing-pages. Each gets its own manifest + self-asserting bind-production (1 small plan per feature, or one bundled plan). - Dev-seed slot typing. Extend
ProductionUseCase<I, O, M>(or define a siblingDevSeedUseCase<...>) tobind-dev-seed.tspaths so the same drift catches in dev mode. - Future:
withAuditautomation. Wire automated audit emission from manifestaudits[]declarations (deferred per TODO inwithAudit).
