ArchiTools — Project Context for AI Assistants

This file provides all context needed for Claude Code, Sonnet, or any AI model to work on this project from scratch.


Quick Start

npm install
npm run dev          # http://localhost:3000
npx next build       # verify zero errors before pushing
git push origin main # auto-deploys via Portainer webhook

Project Overview

ArchiTools is a modular internal web dashboard for an architecture/engineering office group of 3 companies:

  • Beletage (architecture)
  • Urban Switch (urbanism)
  • Studii de Teren (geotechnics)

It runs on an on-premise Ubuntu server at 10.10.10.166, containerized with Docker, managed via Portainer, served by Nginx Proxy Manager.

Stack

Layer Technology
Framework Next.js 16.x, App Router, TypeScript (strict)
Styling Tailwind CSS v4, shadcn/ui
Database PostgreSQL (10.10.10.166:5432) via Prisma v6 ORM
Storage DatabaseStorageAdapter (PostgreSQL) — localStorage fallback available
File Storage MinIO (10.10.10.166:9002 API / 9003 UI) — client configured, adapter pending
Auth NextAuth v4 + Authentik OIDC (auth.beletage.ro)
Deploy Docker multi-stage, Portainer CE, Nginx Proxy Manager
Repo Gitea at https://git.beletage.ro/gitadmin/ArchiTools
Language Code in English, UI in Romanian

Architecture Principles

  • Module platform, not monolith — each module isolated with own types/services/hooks/components
  • Feature flags gate module loading (disabled = zero bundle cost)
  • Storage abstraction: StorageService interface with adapters (database default via Prisma, localStorage fallback)
  • Cross-module tagging system as shared service
  • Auth via Authentik SSO — NextAuth v4 + OIDC, group→role/company mapping
  • All entities include visibility / createdBy fields from day one
  • Company logos — theme-aware (light/dark variants), dual-rendered for SSR safety

The Registratura module includes a full legal deadline tracking engine for Romanian construction permitting:

  • 16 deadline types across 5 categories (Avize, Completări, Analiză, Autorizare, Publicitate)
  • Working days vs calendar days with Romanian public holiday support (including Orthodox Easter via Meeus algorithm)
  • Backward deadlines (e.g., AC extension: 45 working days BEFORE expiry)
  • Chain deadlines (resolving one prompts adding the next)
  • Tacit approval (auto-detected when overdue + applicable type)
  • Tabbed UI: "Registru" tab (existing registry) + "Termene legale" tab (deadline dashboard)

Key files:

  • services/working-days.ts — Romanian holidays, addWorkingDays(), isWorkingDay()
  • services/deadline-catalog.ts — 16 DeadlineTypeDef entries
  • services/deadline-service.tscreateTrackedDeadline(), resolveDeadline(), aggregateDeadlines()
  • components/deadline-dashboard.tsx — Stats + filters + table
  • components/deadline-add-dialog.tsx — 3-step wizard (category → type → date preview)

Deployment Pipeline

git push origin main
  → Gitea webhook fires
    → Portainer CE detects new commit
      → Manual "Pull and redeploy" in Portainer (CE doesn't auto-rebuild)
        → Docker multi-stage build (~1-2 min)
          → Container starts on :3000
            → Nginx Proxy Manager routes to tools.beletage.ro

Docker

  • Dockerfile: 3-stage build (deps → builder → runner), node:20-alpine, non-root user
  • Dockerfile includes npx prisma generate before build step
  • docker-compose.yml: single service, port 3000, all env vars hardcoded (Portainer CE can't inject env vars)
  • output: 'standalone' in next.config.ts is required
  • @prisma/client must be in dependencies (not devDependencies) for runtime

Development Rules

TypeScript Strict Mode Gotchas

  • array.split()[0] returns string | undefined — use .slice(0, 10) instead
  • Record<string, T>[key] returns T | undefined — always guard with null check
  • Spread of possibly-undefined objects: { ...obj[key], field } — check existence first
  • lucide-react Icons: cast through unknownReact.ComponentType<{ className?: string }>

Conventions

  • Code: English
  • UI text: Romanian
  • Components: functional, 'use client' directive where needed
  • State: localStorage via useStorage('module-name') hook
  • IDs: uuid v4
  • Dates: ISO strings (YYYY-MM-DD for display, full ISO for timestamps)
  • No emojis in code or UI unless explicitly requested

Storage Performance Rules

  • NEVER use storage.list() followed by storage.get() in a loop — this is an N+1 query bug
  • list() fetches ALL items (keys+values) from DB but discards values, then each get() re-fetches individually
  • ALWAYS use storage.exportAll() (namespaced) or storage.export(namespace) (service-level) to batch-load
  • Filter items client-side after a single fetch: for (const [key, value] of Object.entries(all)) { ... }
  • After mutations (add/update), either do optimistic local state update or a single refresh() — never both
  • NEVER store large binary data (base64 files) inside entity JSON — this makes list loading transfer tens of MB
  • For modules with attachments: use exportAll({ lightweight: true }) for listing, storage.get() for single-entry full load
  • The API ?lightweight=true parameter strips data/fileData strings >1KB from JSON values server-side
  • Future: move file data to MinIO; only store metadata (name, size, type, url) in the entity JSON

Module Development Pattern

Every module follows:

src/modules/<name>/
├── components/     # React components
├── hooks/          # Custom hooks (use-<name>.ts)
├── services/       # Business logic (pure functions)
├── types.ts        # TypeScript interfaces
├── config.ts       # ModuleConfig metadata
└── index.ts        # Public exports

Before Pushing

  1. npx next build — must pass with zero errors
  2. Test the feature manually on localhost:3000
  3. Commit with descriptive message
  4. git push origin main — Portainer auto-deploys

Model Recommendations

Task Type Claude OpenAI Google Notes
Bug fixes, config Haiku 4.5 GPT-4o-mini Gemini 2.5 Flash Fast, cheap
Features, tests, UI Sonnet 4.6 GPT-5.2 Gemini 3 Flash Best value — Opus-class quality at Sonnet price
New modules, architecture Opus 4.6 GPT-5.3-Codex Gemini 3 Pro Complex multi-file, business logic

Default: Sonnet 4.6 for most work. See ROADMAP.md for per-task recommendations.

Session Handoff Tips

  • Read this CLAUDE.md first — it has all context
  • Read ROADMAP.md for the complete task list with dependencies
  • Check docs/ for deep dives on specific systems
  • Check src/modules/<name>/types.ts before modifying any module
  • Always run npx next build before committing
  • Push to main → Portainer auto-deploys via Gitea webhook
  • The 16 docs in docs/ total ~10,600 lines — search them for architecture questions
