# AGENTS.md — Proof of Work Self-hosted multi-user workout logger (Next.js app) packaged as a StartOS 0.4 `s9pk`, published to a private Start9 registry. > **Inbox check:** At session start, if `~/Projects/standards/INBOX.md` exists, scan it for > items tagged `(proof-of-work)` and surface them before proposing next steps; triage with `/triage`. ## Stack (versions that matter) - **Next.js 15** (App Router, server components + server actions, SSE streaming) — dynamic request APIs are async (see Conventions) - **React 19**, **TypeScript 5**, **TailwindCSS 3** - **Prisma 5** ORM over **SQLite** (WAL mode; tuned at boot) - **bcrypt** (native — NOT bcryptjs), **zod 3** for validation - **Vitest 4** for tests - **@start9labs/start-sdk** for the 0.4 packaging layer - Node **>= 20** to build ## Layout (two projects in one repo) ``` proof-of-work/ ← the Next.js app (THIS is where you run npm) app/ ← App Router routes; app/api/** = route handlers app/main/ ← authed UI; navigation.tsx = sidebar components/ ← React components (workouts/, ai/, settings/) lib/ai/ ← AI subsystem (see below) lib/ai/providers/ ← claude.ts openai.ts gemini.ts ollama.ts + index.ts (getProvider; openai.ts exports both openai + openai-compatible = 5 registered providers) prisma/schema.prisma ← schema (mirror; real DB migrates via entrypoint ALTERs) prisma/*.seed.json ← curated exercise library + AI templates (reconciled each boot) tests/ ← Vitest specs (ai-*.test.ts, routes-*.test.ts, ...) start9/0.4/ ← StartOS packaging wrapper docker_entrypoint.sh ← boot: first-boot seed, additive ALTERs, library reconcile Makefile / s9pk.mk ← s9pk build (ARCHES := x86) startos/versions/ ← one file per ExVer version + index.ts (the version graph) ~/.proof-of-work/ ← publish.sh + unpublish.sh (NOT in repo; self-hosted registry) ``` `workout-planner/` is scratch (only `logs/`) — ignore. `start9/0.4/*.s9pk` are build artifacts. ## Commands Run app commands **from `proof-of-work/`** (running tsc/vitest/next from repo root fails — wrong cwd): ```bash cd proof-of-work npm run dev # local dev server npm run build # next build (run this to catch route/type errors before shipping) npm run lint # next lint npm test # vitest run (full suite) npx vitest run tests/ai-pricing.test.ts # single file npx vitest run -t "findPrice" # single test by name npx tsc --noEmit # typecheck only npx prisma generate # REQUIRED after editing schema.prisma (else TS can't see new fields) npm run db:seed # seed InstanceSettings singleton (NO users/library — see below) npm run create-admin -- you@example.com pw "Name" # create first admin locally (--force resets existing) ``` Build/sideload the s9pk (from `start9/0.4/`): `make x86` then `make install`. Targets come from `s9pk.mk` (the wrapper `Makefile` just sets `ARCHES := x86`): - `make x86` — build the x86 s9pk. - `make install` — sideload the newest local `.s9pk` to the StartOS box at `host:` in `~/.startos/config.yaml` (via `start-cli package install`). - `make publish` — upload every `.s9pk` to the S3 bucket (`s9pk-s3base:`) and index it on `registry:` from `~/.startos/config.yaml` (via `s3cmd` + `start-cli s9pk publish`). **Distinct from `~/.proof-of-work/publish.sh`** below. - `make clean` — remove build artifacts. Both `install` and `publish` read host/registry config from `~/.startos/config.yaml`, which is **not in the repo** — verify against the live setup, not from a checkout. Canonical publish path for this project: `~/.proof-of-work/publish.sh` (builds, uploads to FileBrowser, registers) — separate from the generic `make publish`. Unpublish: `~/.proof-of-work/unpublish.sh`. `npm run db:seed` (= `tsx prisma/seed.ts`) seeds **only the `InstanceSettings` singleton** — deliberately NO users and NO curated library (the library attaches at admin-creation and via the boot-time ensure). It is **live, not dead** — invoked at Docker image-build time (`start9/0.4/Dockerfile`) and the local-dev first-run path. `npm run create-admin` (= `tsx scripts/create-admin.ts`) is the local-dev equivalent of the StartOS "Set admin credentials" action: creates the first admin + seeds their library; `--force` to reset/promote an existing account. Runtime first-boot/upgrade seeding is handled separately by `docker_entrypoint.sh`. ## Conventions - **Versioning is ExVer**: `1.1.0:4` (note the colon). Every release = a new `start9/0.4/startos/versions/vMAJOR.MINOR.PATCH.N.ts` file, imported into `versions/index.ts` and promoted to `current` (previous `current` moves into `other[]`). - **Bump the version BEFORE building the s9pk** — Start9 0.4 won't recognize a rebuild as an update otherwise. - **Schema changes are additive ALTERs in `docker_entrypoint.sh`**, guarded by `PRAGMA table_info` checks. Keep `schema.prisma` in sync as the mirror, but the entrypoint is what migrates live `/data`. Never write a destructive migration. - **Commit subject** = `vX.Y.Z:N — short summary`, imperative, body explains the *why*. - **Git remote is self-hosted** (a private Start9 registry + a FileBrowser artifact host), NOT GitHub. The actual registry/file-host URLs are constants in `~/.proof-of-work/{publish,unpublish}.sh`; FileBrowser creds live in `~/.keysat/filebrowser.env` (outside the repo, gitignored). Default branch is `master`. - **Authorization tiers**: whole-instance routes (`settings/{export,import}-db`) are **admin-only** (`!user.isAdmin → 403`); per-user data routes scope by `user.id`. Custom-URL AI providers (Ollama, OpenAI-compatible — anything with `requiresBaseUrl`) are **admin-only** (SSRF surface); fixed-URL cloud providers (claude/openai/gemini) stay per-user. Gate the server route AND hide the control in the UI. - **Cross-user id ownership**: any route writing `SetLog`s or `ProgramExercise`s from a **client-supplied `exerciseId`** must validate it via `findUnownedExerciseIds(userId, ids)` (`lib/exerciseOwnership.ts`) → `400 { error, details: bad }`. Unknown vs. foreign ids are deliberately indistinguishable (no existence oracle). Applied to all workout-write routes (create/PATCH/add-sets/import-save) + both program routes. (Server-*derived* ids, e.g. program-day `start`, are already owned — no check needed.) - **Login must not leak account existence**: both login paths (`app/auth/login/actions.ts`, `app/api/auth/route.ts`) call `verifyPasswordOrDummy` (`lib/auth.ts`) so an unknown email spends the same bcrypt as a real one. Never reintroduce an early `if (!user) return` *before* the compare — that's the timing oracle. - **Malformed JSON body must return 400, not 500.** Routes whose catch maps `instanceof z.ZodError → 400` parse via `readJsonBody(request)` (`lib/http.ts` — throws a `ZodError` on bad JSON, so the existing branch handles it with no catch change). `safeParse`-style routes (`me/import`, `admin/signups`) wrap `request.json()` in an explicit `try/catch → 400`. (AI/admin routes using `.catch(() => ({}))` are a third, pre-existing pattern — unify if you touch them.) - **Next 15 dynamic APIs are async — `await` them.** Route-handler context `params`, page/layout `params` + `searchParams`, and `cookies()`/`headers()` are all Promises. Established idiom (keeps handler bodies untouched): `[id]` routes take `context: { params: Promise<{…}> }` then `const params = await context.params`; server pages take `props` then `const params = await props.params` / `const searchParams = await props.searchParams`. Route tests pass `params: Promise.resolve({…})`. All routes are dynamic, so the Next 15 "uncached by default" change is a no-op here. - **The container runs the Node server as non-root.** `docker_entrypoint.sh` runs as root only to prep `/data` (seed, ALTERs, library reconcile), then `chown -R nextjs:nodejs "$DATA_DIR"` and `exec su-exec nextjs:nodejs node /app/server.js` (su-exec added in the Dockerfile runner stage). Any new entrypoint step that needs root must run *before* that final line. - **Auth forms retry their server action once on a transport failure**: `LoginForm`/`SignupForm` wrap the action in `retryOnTransportError` (`lib/retryAction.ts`). iOS Safari drops the first POST on a stale keep-alive socket (`NSURLErrorNetworkConnectionLost`, "The network connection was lost") → the client catch showed "An unexpected error occurred". Retry only on a *thrown* error; a returned `{ error }` is a real result and passes through. - Tests live in `proof-of-work/tests/`; mock server-action deps with `vi.hoisted()` + `vi.mock`. Route tests run against a real temp SQLite DB (`tests/helpers/db.ts`) with `getCurrentUser` mocked. - **Before editing the AI subsystem (`proof-of-work/lib/ai/**` or the generate/generations routes), read `docs/guides/ai-subsystem.md`** — provider abstraction, SSE/lenient-JSON, pricing/model menus, and the background-runner architecture live there. ## Always - Run `npx prisma generate` after any `schema.prisma` edit, then `npx tsc --noEmit`. - Run `npm test` AND `npm run build` before shipping a version. - Add the boot-time `ALTER TABLE` (with an existence guard) for any new column, in `docker_entrypoint.sh`. - Treat API keys / secrets as plaintext in `/data` BY DESIGN (threat model: the operator owns `/data`). Reference env-var names (`DATABASE_URL`, etc.); never hardcode values. - Keep migrations idempotent and additive; data already on a user's server must survive upgrades. - Verify the published file actually changed (size / 404 / Last-Modified) after publish.sh. ## Never - **Never add `Co-Authored-By` / "Generated with" trailers** to commits — the user authors commits solo. (This was done wrong in earlier commits; do not repeat.) - **Never reintroduce nonce-based CSP** — it broke first paint. Use the static `'unsafe-inline'` CSP in `next.config.js`. - **Never run app commands from the repo root** — always `cd proof-of-work` first. - **Never export non-HTTP-method symbols from a `route.ts`** — Next.js rejects the build (helpers go in `lib/`, e.g. `lib/ai/activateConfig.ts`). - **Never commit `app.db`, `*.bak`, or any user data** — they're gitignored; double-check `git status` before `git add`. - **Never click Uninstall on a StartOS package during a data cutover** — it destroys the volume; use Stop. - **Never assume GitHub** — don't add a GitHub remote or push there. ## Current state Latest version is **1.2.0:3** — **P3 hardening**: closes the login timing oracle (`verifyPasswordOrDummy` — unknown email now spends one bcrypt too) and enforces `exerciseId` ownership on all workout-write routes + both program routes via the shared `lib/exerciseOwnership.ts` (see Conventions). **Built + sideloaded** to the StartOS box (`immense-voyage.local`, 2026-06-15, on `master`) as `proof-of-work_x86_64.s9pk` (80M, git `f540a47`). Verified before build: tsc clean (app + packaging), lint clean (only pre-existing warnings), **221 tests pass**, `next build` succeeds. Registry empty, **publishing parked** (sideload-only via `make install`). Also shipped this session: **1.2.0:2** — iOS Safari login/signup first-tap retry (`lib/retryAction.ts`; see Conventions). Prior: **1.2.0:1** — Next 15 / React 19 upgrade. No schema/data change in any of the three. **Pending on-box check (one pass covers all):** confirm 1.2.0:3 boots clean in StartOS → Logs (entrypoint logs `launching … as nextjs`, app writes `/data` as uid 1001, no permission errors — also clears the long-standing 1.1.0:9 non-root check), **and** the Safari first-tap proof from 1.2.0:2 — log in from Safari on iPhone/iPad and confirm the *first* Sign In tap works. If it still occasionally fails, grab the Web Inspector error (iPad→Mac): `-1005` confirms the retry is right; anything else points at a proxy↔container keep-alive mismatch. Working: workout logging, programs (manual + AI), multi-user, curated library, full AI subsystem (5 providers, multi-config, background generation, history detail, cost/duration, Ollama auto-detect, infinite-scroll exercise history). Next steps (priority order): 1. **Finish the P3 hardening batch** (`ROADMAP.md` → Security & hardening — timing oracle + exerciseId ownership now DONE): CSP `unsafe-eval`, `/api/health` info disclosure, rate-limit map leak, configurable/shorter sessions (currently 30-day), text max-length. Also unify the 3rd JSON-parse pattern (`try{json}catch{→{}}`) in `programs/[id]/days/[dayId]/start`. 2. Tiered AI prompt formatting (`ROADMAP.md` → AI quality). 3. (Later) **Next 15→16** when ready — `next lint` deprecated in 15.5 (removed in 16) + Next 16 breaking changes; its own tested bump. Open/parked: rate-limit per-IP correctness depends on the StartOS proxy forwarding real client IPs (unverified on the box). `publish.sh` Step-3 registry no-op (parked w/ publishing). Community-registry 4 blockers (`ROADMAP.md` → Packaging). Git remote: `origin` → self-hosted Gitea at `ssh://git@immense-voyage.local:59916/grant/proof-of-work.git`; `master` tracks it. (`~/.proof-of-work/{publish,unpublish}.sh` registry/FileBrowser hosts are separate from this code remote.)
