Cooperative web platform: federated content, commerce, events, and media processing. Each domain runs as an independent Quart microservice with its own database, communicating via HMAC-signed internal HTTP and ActivityPub events.

## S-expression files — reading and editing protocol
|
|
|
|
**Never use `Edit`, `Read`, or `Write` on `.sx` or `.sxc` files.** A hook blocks these tools on `.sx`/`.sxc` files. Use the `sx-tree` MCP server tools instead — they operate on the parsed tree, not raw text. Bracket errors are impossible by construction.
|
|
|
|
### Before doing anything in an `.sx` file
|
|
|
|
1. Call `sx_summarise` to get a structural overview of the whole file
|
|
2. Call `sx_read_subtree` on the region you intend to work in
|
|
3. Call `sx_get_context` on specific nodes to understand their position
|
|
4. Call `sx_find_all` to locate definitions or patterns by name
|
|
5. For project-wide searches, use `sx_find_across`, `sx_comp_list`, or `sx_comp_usage`
|
|
|
|
**Never proceed to an edit without first establishing where you are in the tree using the comprehension tools.**
|
|
|
|
### For every s-expression edit
|
|
|
|
**Path-based** (when you know the exact path):
|
|
1. Call `sx_read_subtree` on the target region to confirm the correct path
|
|
2. Call `sx_replace_node` / `sx_insert_child` / `sx_delete_node` / `sx_wrap_node`
|
|
3. Call `sx_validate` to confirm structural integrity
|
|
4. Call `sx_read_subtree` again on the edited region to verify the result
|
|
|
|
**Pattern-based** (when you can describe what to find):
|
|
- `sx_rename_symbol` — rename all occurrences of a symbol in a file
|
|
- `sx_replace_by_pattern` — find + replace first/all nodes matching a pattern
|
|
- `sx_insert_near` — insert before/after a pattern match (top-level)
|
|
- `sx_rename_across` — rename a symbol across all `.sx` files (use `dry_run=true` first)
|
|
|
|
### Creating new `.sx` files
|
|
|
|
Use `sx_write_file` — it validates the source by parsing before writing. Malformed SX is rejected.
|
|
|
|
### On failure
|
|
|
|
Read the error carefully. Fragment errors give the parse failure in the new source. Path errors tell you which segment was not found. Fix the specific problem and retry the tree edit. **Never fall back to raw file writes.**
|
|
|
|

## Deployment
|
|
|
|
- **Do NOT push** until explicitly told to. Pushes reload code to dev automatically.
|
|
- **NEVER push to `main`** — pushing to main triggers a **PRODUCTION deploy**. Only push to main when the user explicitly requests a production deploy. Work on the `macros` branch by default; merge to main only with explicit permission.
|
|

## SX Language — Canonical Reference
|
|
|
|
The SX language is defined by a self-hosting specification in `shared/sx/ref/`. **Read these files for authoritative SX semantics** — they supersede any implementation detail in `sx.js` or Python evaluators.
|
|
|
|
### Specification files
|
|
|
|
- **`shared/sx/ref/eval.sx`** — Core evaluator: types, trampoline (TCO), `eval-expr` dispatch, special forms (`if`, `when`, `cond`, `case`, `let`, `and`, `or`, `lambda`, `define`, `defcomp`, `defmacro`, `quasiquote`), higher-order forms (`map`, `filter`, `reduce`, `some`, `every?`, `for-each`), macro expansion, function/lambda/component calling.
|
|
- **`shared/sx/ref/parser.sx`** — Tokenizer and parser: grammar, string escapes, dict literals `{:key val}`, quote sugar (`` ` ``, `,`, `,@`), serializer.
|
|
- **`shared/sx/ref/primitives.sx`** — All ~80 built-in pure functions: arithmetic, comparison, predicates, string ops, collection ops, dict ops, format helpers, CSSX style primitives.
|
|
- **`shared/sx/ref/render.sx`** — Three rendering modes: `render-to-html` (server HTML), `render-to-sx`/`aser` (SX wire format for client), `render-to-dom` (browser). HTML tag registry, void elements, boolean attrs.
|
|
- **`shared/sx/ref/bootstrap_js.py`** — Transpiler: reads the `.sx` spec files and emits `sx-ref.js`.
|
|
|
|
### Type system
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
number, string, boolean, nil, symbol, keyword, list, dict,
|
|
lambda, component, macro, thunk (TCO deferred eval)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Evaluation rules (from eval.sx)
|
|
|
|
1. **Literals** (number, string, boolean, nil) — pass through
|
|
2. **Symbols** — look up in env, then primitives, then `true`/`false`/`nil`, else error
|
|
3. **Keywords** — evaluate to their string name
|
|
4. **Dicts** — evaluate all values recursively
|
|
5. **Lists** — dispatch on head:
|
|
- Special forms (`if`, `when`, `cond`, `case`, `let`, `lambda`, `define`, `defcomp`, `defmacro`, `quote`, `quasiquote`, `begin`/`do`, `set!`, `->`)
|
|
- Higher-order forms (`map`, `filter`, `reduce`, `some`, `every?`, `for-each`, `map-indexed`)
|
|
- Macros — expand then re-evaluate
|
|
- Function calls — evaluate head and args, then: native callable → `apply`, lambda → bind params + TCO thunk, component → parse keyword args + bind params + TCO thunk
|
|
|
|
### Component calling convention
|
|
|
|
```lisp
|
|
(defcomp ~card (&key title subtitle &rest children)
|
|
(div :class "card"
|
|
(h2 title)
|
|
(when subtitle (p subtitle))
|
|
children))
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- `&key` params are keyword arguments: `(~card :title "Hi" :subtitle "Sub")`
|
|
- `&rest children` captures positional args as `children`
|
|
- Component body evaluated in merged env: `closure + caller-env + bound-params`
|
|
|
|
### Rendering modes (from render.sx)
|
|
|
|
| Mode | Function | Expands components? | Output |
|
|
|------|----------|-------------------|--------|
|
|
| HTML | `render-to-html` | Yes (recursive) | HTML string |
|
|
| SX wire | `aser` | No — serializes `(~name ...)` | SX source text |
|
|
| DOM | `render-to-dom` | Yes (recursive) | DOM nodes |
|
|
|
|
The `aser` (async-serialize) mode evaluates control flow and function calls but serializes HTML tags and component calls as SX source — the client renders them. This is the wire format for HTMX-like responses.
|
|
|
|
### Platform interface
|
|
|
|
Each target (JS, Python) must provide: type inspection (`type-of`), constructors (`make-lambda`, `make-component`, `make-macro`, `make-thunk`), accessors, environment operations (`env-has?`, `env-get`, `env-set!`, `env-extend`, `env-merge`), and DOM/HTML rendering primitives.
|
|
|

## Architecture Patterns
|
|
|
|
### Web Platform
|
|
|
|
- **App factory:** `create_base_app(name, context_fn, before_request_fns, domain_services_fn)` in `shared/infrastructure/factory.py` — creates Quart app with DB, Redis, CSRF, OAuth, AP, session management
|
|
- **Blueprint pattern:** Each blueprint exposes `register() -> Blueprint`, handlers stored in `_handlers` dict
|
|
- **Per-service database:** Each service has own PostgreSQL DB via PgBouncer; cross-domain data fetched via HTTP
|
|
- **Alembic per-service:** Each service declares `MODELS` and `TABLES` in `alembic/env.py`, delegates to `shared.db.alembic_env.run_alembic()`
|
|
- **Inter-service reads:** `fetch_data(service, query, params)` → GET `/internal/data/{query}` (HMAC-signed, 3s timeout)
|
|
- **Inter-service writes:** `call_action(service, action, payload)` → POST `/internal/actions/{action}` (HMAC-signed, 5s timeout)
|
|
- **Inter-service AP inbox:** `send_internal_activity()` → POST `/internal/inbox` (HMAC-signed, AP-shaped activities for cross-service writes)
|
|
- **Fragments:** HTML fragments fetched cross-service via `fetch_fragments()` for composing shared UI (nav, cart mini, auth menu)
|
|
- **Soft deletes:** Models use `deleted_at` column pattern
|
|
- **Context processors:** Each app provides its own `context_fn` that assembles template context from local DB + cross-service fragments
|
|
|
|
### Auth
|
|
|
|
- **Account** is the OAuth2 authorization server; all other apps are OAuth clients
|
|
- Per-app first-party session cookies (Safari ITP compatible), synchronized via device ID
|
|
- Grant verification: apps check grant validity against account DB (cached in Redis)
|
|
- Silent SSO: `prompt=none` OAuth flow for automatic cross-app login
|
|
- ActivityPub: RSA signatures, per-app virtual actor projections sharing same keypair
|
|
|
|
### SX Rendering Pipeline
|
|
|
|
The SX system renders component trees defined in s-expressions. Canonical semantics are in `shared/sx/ref/` (see "SX Language" section above). The same AST can be evaluated in different modes depending on where the server/client rendering boundary is drawn:
|
|
|
|
- `render_to_html(name, **kw)` — server-side, produces HTML. Maps to `render-to-html` in the spec.
|
|
- `render_to_sx(name, **kw)` — server-side, produces SX wire format. Maps to `aser` in the spec. Component calls stay **unexpanded**.
|
|
- `render_to_sx_with_env(name, env, **kw)` — server-side, **expands known components** then serializes as SX wire format. Used by layout components that need Python context.
|
|
- `sx_page(ctx, page_sx)` — produces the full HTML shell (`<!doctype html>...`) with component definitions, CSS, and page SX inlined for client-side boot.
|
|
|
|
See the docstring in `shared/sx/async_eval.py` for the full evaluation modes table.
|
|
|
|
### Service SX Directory Convention
|
|
|
|
Each service has two SX-related directories:
|
|
|
|
- **`{service}/sx/`** — service-specific component definitions (`.sx` files with `defcomp`). Loaded at startup by `load_service_components()`. These define layout components, reusable UI fragments, etc.
|
|
- **`{service}/sxc/`** — page definitions and Python rendering logic. Contains `defpage` definitions (client-routed pages) and the Python functions that compose headers, layouts, and page content.
|
|
|
|
Shared components live in `shared/sx/templates/` and are loaded by `load_shared_components()` in the app factory.
|
|
|
|
### Art DAG
|
|
|
|
- **3-Phase Execution:** Analyze → Plan → Execute (tasks in `artdag/l1/tasks/`)
|
|
- **Content-Addressed:** All data identified by SHA3-256 hashes or IPFS CIDs
|
|
- **S-Expression Effects:** Composable effect language in `artdag/l1/sexp_effects/`
|
|
- **Storage:** Local filesystem, S3, or IPFS backends
|
|
- L1 ↔ L2: scoped JWT tokens; L2: password + OAuth SSO
|
|
|

## Dev Container Mounts
|
|
|
|
Dev bind mounts in `docker-compose.dev.yml` must mirror the Docker image's COPY paths. When adding a new directory to a service (e.g. `{service}/sx/`), add a corresponding volume mount (`./service/sx:/app/sx`) or the directory won't be visible inside the dev container. Hypercorn `--reload` watches for Python file changes; `.sx` file hot-reload is handled by `reload_if_changed()` in `shared/sx/jinja_bridge.py`.
|
|
|
|
## Key Config Files
|
|
|
|
- `docker-compose.yml` / `docker-compose.dev.yml` — service definitions, env vars, volumes
|
|
- `deploy.sh` / `dev.sh` — deployment and development scripts
|
|
- `shared/infrastructure/factory.py` — app factory (all services use this)
|
|
- `{service}/alembic/env.py` — per-service migration config
|
|
- `_config/app-config.yaml` — runtime YAML config (mounted into containers)
|
|
|
|
## Tools
|
|
|
|
- Use Context7 MCP for up-to-date library documentation
|
|
- Playwright MCP is available for browser automation/testing
|
|
|
