Secrets: NPM_REPO_URL, NPM_USERNAME, NPM_PASSWORD. Auth is a generated
-.npmrc (registry= + _auth= base64 of user:pass) written from secrets at
-runtime — the committed .npmrc in a repo only points at the registry URL.
.npmrc written from secrets at runtime. It sets a scope-scoped registry,
+never a global one — @aetoskia:registry=$NPM_REPO_URL — plus a host-scoped
+auth line //<host>/:_auth=<base64(user:pass)>. The scope and host are derived
+from package.json and NPM_REPO_URL respectively. A global registry= would
+push public transitive deps through Verdaccio (which has no uplink) and 404
+npm install; a bare _auth= is rejected by modern npm. See
+93 – Library Registry.
package.json, so the same file
is reused verbatim across every npm package.PIP_USERNAME / PIP_PASSWORD, | Registry | +URL | +Backend | +CI secret | +
|---|---|---|---|
| PyPI | +https://pip.aetoskia.com |
+pypiserver (server-pi:6007) |
+PIP_REPO_URL |

| npm | +https://npm.aetoskia.com |
+Verdaccio (server-pi:6008) |
+NPM_REPO_URL |

Both are exposed through Traefik on the websecure entrypoint as bare
+origins — no path, no trailing slash. Set the secret values exactly as above.
Verdaccio here has no uplink / proxy, so it can only serve @aetoskia/*
+packages. A global registry=https://npm.aetoskia.com in .npmrc would route
+every dependency — including public transitive deps such as
+zod-to-json-schema (pulled in by @modelcontextprotocol/sdk) — through
+Verdaccio, which 404s on anything it does not host. Always scope the registry to
+the account:
Public deps then resolve from registry.npmjs.org and only @aetoskia/* hits
+the private registry. The auth line must be scoped to the host
+(//host/:_auth=), not a bare _auth= — modern npm rejects the bare form with
+ERR_INVALID_AUTH. The drone template derives both from the package scope and
+NPM_REPO_URL automatically; see
+90 – Drone Pipelines.
++The Drone pipeline runs each
+commands:list item in a separate shell, so +shell variables defined in one item do not survive into the next. Keep the +variable definitions and the commands that use them in the same|block.

Execute every step in order. Only steps 2\u20134 use the\napp-specific details provided by the user; everything else is deterministic.\n\n## Before writing any code\n\nConnect to the `standards` MCP server and read:\n- `docs://nav` (the module list)\n- `docs://modules/genericity_matrix` (Tier A library / Tier B template / Tier C authored)\n- `docs://modules/layering_rules` (the dependency rules)\n\nThen:\n- call `find_library` with `db`, `di`, `routing`, `ingestion`, `pipeline`, `docs`\n and note the Tier A libraries that already exist \u2014 never reimplement one;\n- call `list_app_components()` and pull each file you need with\n `get_app_component(kind)` instead of writing it from scratch.\n\n## Steps\n\n1. **Scaffold** \u2014 copy `standards/src/templates/app/` into `apps/<your-app>/`\n (or pull the same tree via `get_app_template`). Keep the tree: `domain/`,\n `infra/`, `interfaces/`, `pipelines/`, `tests/`, `scripts/`, plus\n `pyproject.toml`, `openapi.yaml`, `config.py`, `init.py`, `main.py`,\n `worker.py`, `Dockerfile`, `docker-compose.yaml`, `.env.example`.\n\n2. **Author the spec (app-specific)** \u2014 write `openapi.yaml`: resources,\n schemas, `operationId`s, security, and extension metadata. This is the\n contract and drives all routing. Every operation MUST have an `operationId`.\n\n3. **Generate the scaffold (codegen)** \u2014 from the spec, generate the wire\n models and the exact handler signatures:\n ```bash\n openapi-first models openapi.yaml -o _gen/models.py\n openapi-first routes openapi.yaml -o _gen/routes \\\n --use-models --models-module _gen.models --inject-request --package --template-style\n ```\n `_gen/models.py` is the **wire contract** (Pydantic, one class per\n `components.schemas` entry). `_gen/routes/<resource>/routes.py` lists every\n `operationId` with its exact parameter signature. `--template-style` makes\n those stubs `async def` with a `body` parameter, matching the handlers you\n keep in `interfaces/` (without it they are sync `def` stubs taking\n `payload`; both bind the same way). Treat `_gen/` as generated\n (never hand-edit it) \u2014 the canonical handlers live in `interfaces/`.\n\n4. **Write each CRUD slice (app-specific)** \u2014 per resource create the four-file\n slice: `models.py` (domain model, **no `id`**), `ports/db.py`\n (`class XDocument(BaseDocument, X)` \u2014 id comes from `BaseDocument`),\n `ports/service.py`, and optional `converters.py`. Follow the CRUD template.\n\n5. **Wire the composition root** \u2014 in `init.py`, build leaf repositories, then\n dependent repositories, then services; add infra adapters (db, cache, stores,\n progress bus, fetchers). Expose `get_svc` overloads.\n\n6. **Add routes** \u2014 create `interfaces/<resource>/routes.py` thin handlers whose\n names match the `operationId`s (use the signatures from step 3 as your\n checklist) and re-export them in `interfaces/openapi.py`. Add the cache\n decorator to read endpoints.\n\n7. **Bootstrap app and worker** \u2014 confirm `main.py` runs the OpenAPI-first app\n with its lifespan. If the app has long-running jobs, adapt `worker.py` to poll\n the job collection, run the pipeline, and publish progress.\n\n8. **Add pipeline families (only if data-driven)** \u2014 copy the worked family\n `pipelines/appointment_reminder/` to `pipelines/<family>/` with `abc.py`,\n `impl.py`, `pipeline.yaml`, `resources/`, and reuse `pipelines/shared/`\n (loader + registry). Register the root, add the `job.kind` handler in\n `worker.py`. Add fixtures and a parity test.\n\n9. **Add infrastructure only where needed** \u2014 Tier A capability: use the\n library. Tier B capability: copy the template. Never hand-write a Tier A\n library.\n\n10. **Tests** \u2014 integration tests with fakes at the HTTP edge; unit tests for\n domain and pipeline logic; a config-consistency test for rule-driven\n pipelines. Include `tests/integration/test_openapi_app_builds.py` (imports\n the app, asserts `import main` binds every operation).\n\n11. **Scripts and seeds** \u2014 operator scripts under `scripts/` using\n `init()` / `get_svc()` / `shutdown()`; run as `python -m scripts.<name>`.\n\n12. **Docs** \u2014 author GSDFC docstrings, generate `.pyi` stubs, mark the package\n `py.typed`, and build the docs.\n\n**Definition of done:**\n- `python -c \"import main\"` succeeds.\n- `pytest` passes.\n- The app serves every operation in the spec; the worker drains its queue.\n- No domain module imports a web framework.\n- No Tier A library was reimplemented.\n"},{"location":"01_build_recipe/#where-the-steps-land","title":"\ud83e\udded Where the steps land","text":"The steps map onto the layers as follows:

Both shapes bind identically: the router resolves handlers by operationId and introspects the FastAPI signature, and it never inspects the request body. Pass --template-style so the generated signatures match the handlers you keep in interfaces/.
operationId naming: list_<resource>, create_<resource>, get_<resource>, update_<resource>, delete_<resource>.400; not found -> 404; delete -> 204.Auth is deferred in the standard: the same spec-first app runs with or without it, because security lives entirely in the spec, never in handlers. For an app that needs no auth yet, do not invent per-handler auth checks \u2014 just omit the security keys:
security: block.components.securitySchemes.security: [] to operations. An explicit empty array is a per-operation override that means \"public\", and it only matters when a global security block exists. Leaving every operation without a security key is the cleanest authless spec.Profile endpoints (/users/me) and profile headers (x-profile) still exist in an authless app. Define a stand-in identity in the composition root \u2014 for example get_current_user returns or lazily creates a fixed \"Demo User\" \u2014 so handlers stay auth-agnostic and only the wiring changes when real auth arrives.
The handlers, services, and composition root are unchanged. When auth is needed later, add the global security block and an introspecting dependency; only handlers that must opt out get security: [].
openapi_first scaffolds models and route stubs from the spec (see the Build Recipe, step 3):
openapi-first models openapi.yaml -o _gen/models.py\nopenapi-first routes openapi.yaml -o _gen/routes \\\n --use-models --models-module _gen.models --inject-request --package --template-style\n Prefer codegen over hand-writing boilerplate. The result is the wire contract and a set of operationId-named signatures \u2014 not the canonical handlers.
Every resource follows the same four-file slice. Repetition is intentional: it makes the codebase predictable and generatable.

An app never implements registration, login, password hashing, or token issuance itself.
The agent does not need an MCP bundle for the auth-server. It reads the pinned OpenAPI contract (below) and declares a bearer security scheme in its own spec; openapi_first then generates the verifying dependency. No auth code is written.
The auth-server OpenAPI document is pinned in the standards bundle and served as an MCP resource:
docs://spec\n It is the authoritative client contract (OpenAPI 3.1). Read it to learn the endpoints and the request/response schemas:
Endpoint PurposePOST /register Create a user (201, returns PublicUser) POST /login Authenticate and issue a JWT (LoginResponse) GET /me Current user's PublicUser (bearer required) POST /logout Stateless logout (LogoutResponse) POST /introspect Internal token introspection (active, user) The pinned snapshot is versioned (currently 0.0.5). If the caller has a live auth-server and needs the current contract, they can pass the full endpoint ({AUTH_SERVER}/openapi.json) and read it directly instead of the pin.
Authentication is added by editing the app's own openapi.yaml \u2014 nothing else. Declare a global bearer requirement and point the scheme at the auth server (values come from the environment):
security:\n - bearerAuth: []\npaths:\n # ...\ncomponents:\n securitySchemes:\n bearerAuth:\n type: http\n scheme: bearer\n bearerFormat: JWT\n x-server-url: \"{AUTH_SERVER}\"\n x-introspect-path: \"/introspect\"\n x-login-path: \"/login\"\n x-register-path: \"/register\"\n x-logout-path: \"/logout\"\n x-me-path: \"/me\"\n openapi_first reads securitySchemes + security and generates a FastAPI dependency that extracts the bearer token, POSTs {\"token\": <jwt>} to {AUTH_SERVER}/introspect, and returns the user when active == true. It raises 401 on an invalid or inactive token and 503 when the auth server is unreachable. The generated handlers receive the authenticated user \u2014 you author no authentication code.

Watch Drone: Type A publishes the wheel/sdist, Type B publishes the npm package, Type C builds and deploys the image; all three first assert tag == version.x.y.(z+1).The version file and the tag are two facts that must agree; nothing in git enforces that by itself. A mismatch is not a theoretical risk \u2014 a package can be tagged 0.0.2 while its pyproject.toml still says 0.0.1, and the publish step (which compares the file against the index) then skips the build entirely, so 0.0.2 never reaches the index while looking like a release.

Execute every step in order. Only steps 2\u20134 use the\napp-specific details provided by the user; everything else is deterministic.\n\n## Before writing any code\n\nConnect to the `standards` MCP server and read:\n- `docs://nav` (the module list)\n- `docs://modules/genericity_matrix` (Tier A library / Tier B template / Tier C authored)\n- `docs://modules/layering_rules` (the dependency rules)\n\nThen:\n- call `find_library` with `db`, `di`, `routing`, `ingestion`, `pipeline`, `docs`\n and note the Tier A libraries that already exist \u2014 never reimplement one;\n- call `list_app_components()` and pull each file you need with\n `get_app_component(kind)` instead of writing it from scratch.\n\n## Steps\n\n1. **Scaffold** \u2014 copy `standards/src/templates/app/` into `apps/<your-app>/`\n (or pull the same tree via `get_app_template`). Keep the tree: `domain/`,\n `infra/`, `interfaces/`, `pipelines/`, `tests/`, `scripts/`, plus\n `pyproject.toml`, `openapi.yaml`, `config.py`, `init.py`, `main.py`,\n `worker.py`, `Dockerfile`, `docker-compose.yaml`, `.env.example`.\n\n2. **Author the spec (app-specific)** \u2014 write `openapi.yaml`: resources,\n schemas, `operationId`s, security, and extension metadata. This is the\n contract and drives all routing. Every operation MUST have an `operationId`.\n\n3. **Generate the scaffold (codegen)** \u2014 from the spec, generate the wire\n models and the exact handler signatures:\n ```bash\n openapi-first models openapi.yaml -o _gen/models.py\n openapi-first routes openapi.yaml -o _gen/routes \\\n --use-models --models-module _gen.models --inject-request --package --template-style\n ```\n `_gen/models.py` is the **wire contract** (Pydantic, one class per\n `components.schemas` entry). `_gen/routes/<resource>/routes.py` lists every\n `operationId` with its exact parameter signature. `--template-style` makes\n those stubs `async def` with a `body` parameter, matching the handlers you\n keep in `interfaces/` (without it they are sync `def` stubs taking\n `payload`; both bind the same way). Treat `_gen/` as generated\n (never hand-edit it) \u2014 the canonical handlers live in `interfaces/`.\n\n4. **Write each CRUD slice (app-specific)** \u2014 per resource create the four-file\n slice: `models.py` (domain model, **no `id`**), `ports/db.py`\n (`class XDocument(BaseDocument, X)` \u2014 id comes from `BaseDocument`),\n `ports/service.py`, and optional `converters.py`. Follow the CRUD template.\n\n5. **Wire the composition root** \u2014 in `init.py`, build leaf repositories, then\n dependent repositories, then services; add infra adapters (db, cache, stores,\n progress bus, fetchers). Expose `get_svc` overloads.\n\n6. **Add routes** \u2014 create `interfaces/<resource>/routes.py` thin handlers whose\n names match the `operationId`s (use the signatures from step 3 as your\n checklist) and re-export them in `interfaces/openapi.py`. Add the cache\n decorator to read endpoints.\n\n7. **Bootstrap app and worker** \u2014 confirm `main.py` runs the OpenAPI-first app\n with its lifespan. If the app has long-running jobs, adapt `worker.py` to poll\n the job collection, run the pipeline, and publish progress.\n\n8. **Add pipeline families (only if data-driven)** \u2014 copy the worked family\n `pipelines/appointment_reminder/` to `pipelines/<family>/` with `abc.py`,\n `impl.py`, `pipeline.yaml`, `resources/`, and reuse `pipelines/shared/`\n (loader + registry). Register the root, add the `job.kind` handler in\n `worker.py`. Add fixtures and a parity test.\n\n9. **Add infrastructure only where needed** \u2014 Tier A capability: use the\n library. Tier B capability: copy the template. Never hand-write a Tier A\n library.\n\n10. **Tests** \u2014 integration tests with fakes at the HTTP edge; unit tests for\n domain and pipeline logic; a config-consistency test for rule-driven\n pipelines. Include `tests/integration/test_openapi_app_builds.py` (imports\n the app, asserts `import main` binds every operation).\n\n11. **Scripts and seeds** \u2014 operator scripts under `scripts/` using\n `init()` / `get_svc()` / `shutdown()`; run as `python -m scripts.<name>`.\n\n12. **Docs** \u2014 author GSDFC docstrings, generate `.pyi` stubs, mark the package\n `py.typed`, and build the docs.\n\n**Definition of done:**\n- `python -c \"import main\"` succeeds.\n- `pytest` passes.\n- The app serves every operation in the spec; the worker drains its queue.\n- No domain module imports a web framework.\n- No Tier A library was reimplemented.\n"},{"location":"01_build_recipe/#where-the-steps-land","title":"\ud83e\udded Where the steps land","text":"The steps map onto the layers as follows:

operationId naming: list_<resource>, create_<resource>, get_<resource>, update_<resource>, delete_<resource>.400; not found -> 404; delete -> 204.Auth is deferred in the standard: the same spec-first app runs with or without it, because security lives entirely in the spec, never in handlers. For an app that needs no auth yet, do not invent per-handler auth checks \u2014 just omit the security keys:
security: block.components.securitySchemes.security: [] to operations. An explicit empty array is a per-operation override that means \"public\", and it only matters when a global security block exists. Leaving every operation without a security key is the cleanest authless spec.Profile endpoints (/users/me) and profile headers (x-profile) still exist in an authless app. Define a stand-in identity in the composition root \u2014 for example get_current_user returns or lazily creates a fixed \"Demo User\" \u2014 so handlers stay auth-agnostic and only the wiring changes when real auth arrives.
The handlers, services, and composition root are unchanged. When auth is needed later, add the global security block and an introspecting dependency; only handlers that must opt out get security: [].
openapi_first scaffolds models and route stubs from the spec (see the Build Recipe, step 3):
openapi-first models openapi.yaml -o _gen/models.py\nopenapi-first routes openapi.yaml -o _gen/routes \\\n --use-models --models-module _gen.models --inject-request --package --template-style\n Prefer codegen over hand-writing boilerplate.

An app never implements registration, login, password hashing, or token issuance itself.
The agent does not need an MCP bundle for the auth-server. It reads the pinned OpenAPI contract (below) and declares a bearer security scheme in its own spec; openapi_first then generates the verifying dependency. No auth code is written.
The auth-server OpenAPI document is pinned in the standards bundle and served as an MCP resource:
docs://spec\n It is the authoritative client contract (OpenAPI 3.1). Read it to learn the endpoints and the request/response schemas:
Endpoint PurposePOST /register Create a user (201, returns PublicUser) POST /login Authenticate and issue a JWT (LoginResponse) GET /me Current user's PublicUser (bearer required) POST /logout Stateless logout (LogoutResponse) POST /introspect Internal token introspection (active, user) The pinned snapshot is versioned (currently 0.0.5). If the caller has a live auth-server and needs the current contract, they can pass the full endpoint ({AUTH_SERVER}/openapi.json) and read it directly instead of the pin.
Authentication is added by editing the app's own openapi.yaml \u2014 nothing else. Declare a global bearer requirement and point the scheme at the auth server (values come from the environment):
security:\n - bearerAuth: []\npaths:\n # ...\ncomponents:\n securitySchemes:\n bearerAuth:\n type: http\n scheme: bearer\n bearerFormat: JWT\n x-server-url: \"{AUTH_SERVER}\"\n x-introspect-path: \"/introspect\"\n x-login-path: \"/login\"\n x-register-path: \"/register\"\n x-logout-path: \"/logout\"\n x-me-path: \"/me\"\n openapi_first reads securitySchemes + security and generates a FastAPI dependency that extracts the bearer token, POSTs {\"token\": <jwt>} to {AUTH_SERVER}/introspect, and returns the user when active == true. It raises 401 on an invalid or inactive token and 503 when the auth server is unreachable. The generated handlers receive the authenticated user \u2014 you author no authentication code.

The agent neither authors nor merges the MR, and never tags before the merge. After the user confirms the MR is merged/squashed and says to proceed:

Watch Drone: Type A publishes the wheel/sdist, Type B publishes the npm package, Type C builds and deploys the image; all three first assert tag == version.x.y.(z+1).The version file and the tag are two facts that must agree; nothing in git enforces that by itself. A mismatch is not a theoretical risk \u2014 a package can be tagged 0.0.2 while its pyproject.toml still says 0.0.1, and the publish step (which compares the file against the index) then skips the build entirely, so 0.0.2 never reaches the index while looking like a release. The Drone guard turns that silent no-op into a hard failure.
