ci: add Woodpecker CI for self-hosted builds

- Add .woodpecker.yml with build steps for api, worker, claudebox
- Update K8s manifests to use registry.threesix.ai/rdev/*
- Remove ghcr-secret imagePullSecrets (Zot is unauthenticated)

Builds will run on Woodpecker using kaniko, pushing to our internal
Zot registry. This eliminates the QEMU cross-compilation issues on
Apple Silicon.

+# Composable Monorepo Templates
+
+**When to use:** Implementing the monorepo skeleton, component templates, or the component addition API.
+
+## Overview
+
+Composable Monorepo Templates evolve rdev from single-template projects to full monorepo scaffolding:
+
+1. **Skeleton**: Every `POST /projects` creates the monorepo base (shared `pkg/`, scripts, CI)
+2. **Component Templates**: `POST /projects/{id}/components` adds services/workers/apps/cli
+3. **Deployment**: Target whole monorepo or individual components
+
+**Terminology:** "skeleton" = generated project code; "platform" = rdev itself. See [ai-lookup/terminology.md](../../../ai-lookup/terminology.md).
+
+**Plan Document:** `tmp/template-monorepo-plan.md`
+
+## Implementation Phases
+
+### Phase 1: Skeleton Template
+
+Create `templates/skeleton/` with base monorepo structure.
+
+**Files to create:**
+```
+internal/adapter/templates/templates/skeleton/
+├── CLAUDE.md.tmpl
+├── README.md.tmpl
+├── Procfile.tmpl
+├── docker-compose.yml.tmpl
+├── go.work.tmpl
+├── .golangci.yml
+├── .gitignore
+├── .woodpecker.yml.tmpl        # ⚠️ Template-provided CI (never AI-generated)
+├── .claude/
+│   ├── settings.local.json
+│   ├── guides/
+│   └── skills/
+├── scripts/
+│   ├── install.sh
+│   ├── quality.sh
+│   ├── dev.sh
+│   └── discover.sh
+└── pkg/
+    ├── go.mod.tmpl
+    ├── app/
+    ├── middleware/
+    ├── httpcontext/
+    ├── httpresponse/
+    ├── httpvalidation/
+    ├── logging/
+    ├── config/
+    └── httpclient/
+```
+
+**Critical: CI Must Be Templated**
+
+AI-generated `.woodpecker.yml` produces invalid YAML (broken anchor syntax). All CI comes from templates:
+- Skeleton provides base `.woodpecker.yml.tmpl`
+- Components provide `.woodpecker.step.yml.tmpl`
+- AddComponent service inserts component steps into main pipeline
+
+**Template Variables:**
+```go
+{{.ProjectName}}     // "acme"
+{{.GoModule}}        // "github.com/orchard9/acme"
+{{.Description}}     // "Project description"
+```
+
+**Provider Changes:**
+```go
+// internal/port/template_provider.go
+type TemplateProvider interface {
+    // Existing
+    GetTemplate(name string) (*Template, error)
+    ListTemplates() []Template
+
+    // New
+    GetSkeleton() (*Template, error)
+    GetComponentTemplate(componentType, templateName string) (*Template, error)
+    ListComponentTemplates(componentType string) []Template
+}
+```
+
+### Phase 1.5: Shared Packages (pkg/)
+
+Extract and combine packages from Aeries + Colix:
+
+| Package | Source | Key Files |
+|---------|--------|-----------|
+| `app/` | Aeries `pkg/chassis/` | `app.go` |
+| `middleware/` | Colix `pkg/middleware/` | `cors.go`, `recovery.go`, `request_id.go`, `logger.go` |
+| `httpcontext/` | Colix `pkg/httpcontext/` | `keys.go` |
+| `httpresponse/` | Both | `response.go`, `envelope.go` |
+| `httpvalidation/` | Colix `pkg/httpvalidation/` | `validator.go`, `errors.go` |
+| `logging/` | Both | `logger.go` |
+| `config/` | Aeries `pkg/config/` | `config.go` |
+| `httpclient/` | Both | `client.go` |
+
+### Phase 2: Component Templates
+
+Migrate existing templates to component format:
+
+```
+internal/adapter/templates/templates/components/
+├── service/           # Renamed from go-api
+│   ├── cmd/server/main.go.tmpl
+│   ├── internal/
+│   ├── Makefile.tmpl
+│   ├── Dockerfile.tmpl
+│   ├── component.yaml.tmpl
+│   └── .woodpecker.step.yml.tmpl  # CI step for this component type
+├── worker/            # NEW
+├── app-astro/         # Renamed from astro-landing
+├── app-react/         # NEW
+└── cli/               # NEW
+```
+
+Each component includes `.woodpecker.step.yml.tmpl` that defines its Kaniko build step.
+When components are added, the service renders this template and inserts it into the main pipeline.
+
+**Component Variables:**
+```go
+{{.ProjectName}}        // "acme"
+{{.ComponentName}}      // "auth-api"
+{{.ComponentNameCamel}} // "AuthApi"
+{{.GoModule}}           // "github.com/orchard9/acme"
+{{.Port}}               // 8080
+```
+
+### Phase 3: Add Component API
+
+Create endpoint for adding components to existing projects.
+
+**Handler:**
+```go
+// internal/handlers/components.go
+func (h *Handler) AddComponent(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
+    projectID := chi.URLParam(r, "projectID")
+
+    var req AddComponentRequest
+    if err := json.NewDecoder(r.Body).Decode(&req); err != nil {
+        api.Error(w, http.StatusBadRequest, "invalid request")
+        return
+    }
+
+    component, err := h.svc.AddComponent(r.Context(), projectID, req.Type, req.Name, req.Template)
+    if err != nil {
+        api.Error(w, http.StatusInternalServerError, err.Error())
+        return
+    }
+
+    api.OK(w, component)
+}
+```
+
+**Request/Response:**
+```go
+type AddComponentRequest struct {
+    Type     string `json:"type"`     // service, worker, app, cli
+    Name     string `json:"name"`     // auth-api, dashboard, etc.
+    Template string `json:"template"` // optional: specific variant
+}
+```
+
+**Service Logic:**
+```go
+func (s *Service) AddComponent(ctx context.Context, projectID, compType, name, template string) (*domain.Component, error) {
+    // 1. Render component template
+    // 2. Commit files to project repo
+    // 3. Update Procfile with new entry
+    // 4. Update go.work if Go component
+    // 5. Update CLAUDE.md routing
+    // 6. Update .woodpecker.yml with component's build step
+    // 7. Return component metadata
+}
+```
+
+### Phase 4: Component-Aware Deployment
+
+Extend deploy to support component targets:
+
+```go
+type DeployRequest struct {
+    Component string `json:"component,omitempty"` // e.g., "services/auth-api"
+}
+
+// POST /projects/{id}/deploy                    → full monorepo
+// POST /projects/{id}/deploy/services/auth-api  → single component
+```
+
+### Phase 5: Discovery Scripts
+
+Scripts that walk the monorepo and operate on all components:
+
+```bash
+# scripts/discover.sh
+#!/bin/bash
+for type in services workers apps cli; do
+  for dir in "$type"/*/; do
+    [ -d "$dir" ] && echo "$type/$(basename $dir)"
+  done
+done
+
+# scripts/install.sh
+#!/bin/bash
+for service in services/*/; do
+  [ -f "$service/go.mod" ] && (cd "$service" && go mod download)
+done
+for app in apps/*/; do
+  [ -f "$app/package.json" ] && (cd "$app" && npm install)
+done
+
+# scripts/quality.sh
+#!/bin/bash
+golangci-lint run ./services/... ./workers/... ./cli/...
+for app in apps/*/; do
+  [ -f "$app/package.json" ] && (cd "$app" && npm run lint)
+done
+
+# scripts/dev.sh
+#!/bin/bash
+docker-compose up -d
+overmind start
+```
+
+### Phase 6: Quality Hooks
+
+Pre-commit hooks for monorepo quality:
+
+```bash
+# .githooks/pre-commit
+#!/bin/bash
+# File length check (500 lines)
+for file in $(git diff --cached --name-only --diff-filter=ACM | grep -E '\.(go|ts|tsx)$'); do
+  lines=$(wc -l < "$file")
+  if [ "$lines" -gt 500 ]; then
+    echo "Error: $file exceeds 500 lines ($lines)"
+    exit 1
+  fi
+done
+
+# Go formatting
+gofmt -l -w $(git diff --cached --name-only --diff-filter=ACM | grep '\.go$')
+
+# Linting
+golangci-lint run ./services/... ./workers/... ./cli/...
+```
+
+## Domain Model
+
+```go
+// internal/domain/component.go
+type ComponentType string
+
+const (
+    // Code components (scaffold template files)
+    ComponentTypeService  ComponentType = "service"
+    ComponentTypeWorker   ComponentType = "worker"
+    ComponentTypeAppAstro ComponentType = "app-astro"
+    ComponentTypeAppReact ComponentType = "app-react"
+    ComponentTypeCLI      ComponentType = "cli"
+
+    // Infrastructure components (provision resources)
+    ComponentTypePostgres ComponentType = "postgres"
+    ComponentTypeRedis    ComponentType = "redis"
+)
+
+type Component struct {
+    Type         ComponentType
+    Name         string
+    Template     string
+    Path         string            // "services/auth-api" or "infra/postgres"
+    Port         int               // from component.yaml or auto-assigned
+    Dependencies []string          // postgres, redis, etc.
+    BuildOrder   int
+}
+```
+
+## Infrastructure Components
+
+Infrastructure components (`postgres`, `redis`) don't scaffold files — they provision actual resources:
+
+### Adding Database (CockroachDB)
+
+```bash
+POST /projects/acme/components
+{
+  "type": "postgres",
+  "name": "main-db"
+}
+```
+
+This:
+1. Creates a CockroachDB database: `project_acme`
+2. Creates a database user with full permissions
+3. Stores `DATABASE_URL` and `DATABASE_URL_STAGING` in credential store
+
+### Adding Cache (Redis)
+
+```bash
+POST /projects/acme/components
+{
+  "type": "redis",
+  "name": "job-queue"
+}
+```
+
+This:
+1. Creates a Redis ACL user: `proj-acme`
+2. Scopes access to keys matching `project:acme:*`
+3. Stores `REDIS_URL`, `REDIS_URL_STAGING`, and `REDIS_PREFIX` in credential store
+
+## Credential Injection
+
+**Critical:** When code components are deployed, credentials are automatically injected.
+
+The `createInitialComponentDeployment()` function:
+1. Calls `fetchProjectCredentials(projectID)` to retrieve stored credentials
+2. Populates `DeploySpec.Secrets` with `DATABASE_URL`, `REDIS_URL`, etc.
+3. Deployer creates K8s Secret and mounts it as environment variables
+
+**Available credentials (if provisioned):**
+- `DATABASE_URL` - CockroachDB connection string
+- `DATABASE_URL_STAGING` - Staging database (same as prod currently)
+- `REDIS_URL` - Redis connection string with auth
+- `REDIS_URL_STAGING` - Staging Redis (same as prod currently)
+- `REDIS_PREFIX` - Key prefix for isolation (e.g., `project:acme:`)
+
+**Service Discovery:** Sibling services are also injected as env vars:
+- `AUTH_SVC_URL=http://acme-auth-svc:8001`
+- `CHAT_SVC_URL=http://acme-chat-svc:8002`
+
+**File Pointers:**
+- Credential injection: `internal/service/component_deploy.go:35-48, 160-212`
+- Infrastructure provisioning: `internal/service/component_infra.go`
+- Deployer secret creation: `internal/adapter/deployer/resources.go:81-135`
+```
+
+## API Reference
+
+**Important Route Note:** Project CRUD uses `/project` (singular), but component/build/pipeline operations use `/projects/{id}/...` (plural).
+
+### Create Project (Skeleton)
+
+```bash
+POST /project
+{
+  "name": "acme",
+  "description": "Acme Corp platform"
+}
+
+# Response: Creates monorepo skeleton in repo
+```
+
+### Add Component
+
+```bash
+POST /projects/acme/components
+{
+  "type": "service",
+  "name": "auth-api",
+  "template": "service"  # optional
+}
+
+# Response:
+{
+  "type": "service",
+  "name": "auth-api",
+  "path": "services/auth-api",
+  "port": 8001
+}
+```
+
+### Deploy
+
+```bash
+# Component deploy (single component at a time)
+POST /projects/acme/deploy
+{
+  "component": "services/auth-api"
+}
+
+# Note: Full monorepo deploy is handled by CI pipeline, not a single API call
+```
+
+### List Components
+
+```bash
+GET /projects/acme/components
+
+# Response:
+{
+  "components": [
+    {"type": "service", "name": "auth-api", "path": "services/auth-api", "port": 8001},
+    {"type": "app-react", "name": "dashboard", "path": "apps/dashboard", "port": 3001}
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+### Delete Project
+
+```bash
+DELETE /project/acme
+```
+
+### List Component Templates
+
+```bash
+GET /templates/components
+
+# Response shows available component types: service, worker, app-astro, app-react, cli
+```
+
+## Routing Patterns
+
+### Service URL Convention
+
+Services are accessed via a consistent URL pattern:
+
+```
+https://{project-domain}/api/{service-name}/...
+```
+
+**Examples:**
+- `https://acme.threesix.ai/api/auth/login` → auth-api service
+- `https://acme.threesix.ai/api/chat/messages` → chat-api service
+- `https://acme.threesix.ai/` → frontend app (no `/api/` prefix)
+
+### How Routing Works
+
+```
+[Client] → [Cloudflare DNS] → [Ingress Controller] → [K8s Service] → [Pod]
+
+1. DNS: *.threesix.ai → cluster IP
+2. Ingress: Routes by host + path prefix
+3. Service: Load balances to pods
+4. Pod: Runs your container on assigned port
+```
+
+### Configuring Routes in Trees
+
+When adding services via cookbook trees, routes are configured automatically based on component type and name:
+
+```yaml
+# Adding a service creates these routes:
+add-auth-service:
+  action: api
+  method: POST
+  endpoint: "/projects/{{ .outputs.create-project.project_id }}/components"
+  body:
+    type: service
+    name: auth  # Routes to /api/auth/*
+```
+
+**Port assignment:** Services get auto-assigned ports (8001, 8002, ...). The ingress handles external-to-internal port mapping.
+
+### Common Routing Mistakes
+
+| Mistake | Symptom | Fix |
+|---------|---------|-----|
+| Missing `/api/` prefix in client | 404 on service calls | Use `/api/{service}/...` |
+| Hardcoded localhost:8001 | Works locally, fails in K8s | Use relative paths or env vars |
+| Wrong service name in path | 404 or wrong service | Match name from component add |
+| CORS errors | Browser blocks requests | Ensure middleware/cors.go is configured |
+| Trailing slash mismatch | 301 redirect loops | Be consistent: `/api/auth` not `/api/auth/` |
+
+### Multi-Service Routing
+
+When multiple services exist, they share the domain but have isolated path prefixes:
+
+```yaml
+# Project with 3 services
+components:
+  - type: service, name: auth    # /api/auth/*
+  - type: service, name: chat    # /api/chat/*
+  - type: service, name: billing # /api/billing/*
+  - type: app-react, name: web   # /* (catch-all for frontend)
+```
+
+**Frontend API calls:**
+```typescript
+// In React app - use relative paths
+fetch('/api/auth/login', { method: 'POST', body: ... })
+fetch('/api/chat/messages')
+fetch('/api/billing/invoices')
+```
+
+### Internal Service Communication
+
+Services communicate internally via K8s service names, not external URLs:
+
+```yaml
+# Service discovery environment variables (auto-injected)
+AUTH_SVC_URL=http://acme-auth-svc:8001
+CHAT_SVC_URL=http://acme-chat-svc:8002
+
+# In code - use env vars
+authURL := os.Getenv("AUTH_SVC_URL")
+resp, err := http.Get(authURL + "/internal/validate-token")
+```
+
+**Internal vs External:**
+- **External** (from browser): `https://acme.threesix.ai/api/auth/...`
+- **Internal** (service-to-service): `http://acme-auth-svc:8001/...`
+
+Internal routes can have endpoints not exposed externally (e.g., `/internal/*`).
+
+## Testing
+
+```go
+func TestAddComponent(t *testing.T) {
+    // Setup project first
+    project := createTestProject(t, "test-monorepo")
+
+    // Add service component
+    req := AddComponentRequest{
+        Type:     "service",
+        Name:     "auth-api",
+        Template: "go-api",
+    }
+
+    component, err := svc.AddComponent(ctx, project.ID, req.Type, req.Name, req.Template)
+    require.NoError(t, err)
+
+    assert.Equal(t, "service", string(component.Type))
+    assert.Equal(t, "auth-api", component.Name)
+    assert.Equal(t, "services/auth-api", component.Path)
+
+    // Verify files created in repo
+    files, err := gitea.ListFiles(project.Owner, project.Name, "services/auth-api")
+    require.NoError(t, err)
+    assert.Contains(t, files, "cmd/server/main.go")
+    assert.Contains(t, files, "Makefile")
+}
+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Component endpoint returns 404
+
+The component service is only initialized when `GITEA_URL`, `GITEA_TOKEN`, and template provider are all configured. Check startup logs for "component service initialized":
+
+```bash
+kubectl logs -n rdev deployment/rdev-api | grep "component service"
+```
+
+If missing, verify the rdev-api deployment has the required env vars.
+
+### Component addition fails with "directory exists"
+
+The component path already exists. Either delete it or choose a different name.
+
+### Component addition fails with "connection refused"
+
+**Hairpin NAT issue.** rdev-api is trying to reach Gitea via external URL which doesn't work from within the cluster. Use internal service hostnames:
+
+```yaml
+# In deployments/k8s/base/rdev-api.yaml
+- name: GITEA_URL
+  value: "http://gitea.threesix.svc.cluster.local"
+```
+
+See [ops/networking.md](../ops/networking.md) for details.
+
+### CI pipeline linter errors
+
+Woodpecker may show linter warnings about oneOf/anyOf validation. These are usually benign. Check for actual schema violations like invalid `when.event` values.
+
+**Critical:** The `.woodpecker.yml` marker must be exactly `# COMPONENT_STEPS_BELOW` on its own line. If the marker has trailing text (like `- Do not remove`), it will be appended to the last line of inserted component steps, corrupting the YAML.
+
+**File Pointer:** `internal/adapter/templates/templates/skeleton/.woodpecker.yml.tmpl:11`
+
+### Procfile not updating
+
+Check that the template includes the Procfile.tmpl and the service has write access to the repo.
+
+### go.work not syncing
+
+Run `./scripts/discover.sh` to verify component detection, then manually run `go work sync`.

+# Cookbook Tree System
+
+Checkpoint-based cookbook execution with YAML tree definitions. Enables resumable, debuggable E2E test workflows.
+
+## Quick Reference
+
+```bash
+# Validate tree and show execution plan (safe preview)
+./cookbooks/scripts/tree-runner.sh run landing-page --project-name my-test --dry-run
+
+# Run a tree (creates checkpoint on each step)
+./cookbooks/scripts/tree-runner.sh run landing-page --project-name my-test
+
+# Run with auto-cleanup on exit
+./cookbooks/scripts/tree-runner.sh run landing-page --project-name my-test --auto-teardown
+
+# Resume from last checkpoint after failure
+./cookbooks/scripts/tree-runner.sh resume landing-page
+
+# Run only a specific step (debugging)
+./cookbooks/scripts/tree-runner.sh only landing-page wait-pipeline
+
+# Check status of a tree run
+./cookbooks/scripts/tree-runner.sh status landing-page
+
+# Teardown resources (runs tree's teardown section)
+./cookbooks/scripts/tree-runner.sh teardown landing-page
+
+# List all available trees
+./cookbooks/scripts/tree-runner.sh list
+
+# Clean checkpoint (discard state)
+./cookbooks/scripts/tree-runner.sh clean landing-page
+```
+
+### Global Flags
+
+| Flag | Description |
+|------|-------------|
+| `--dry-run` | Validate tree and show execution plan without running |
+| `--auto-teardown` | Run teardown steps on exit (success or failure) |
+
+## Dependencies
+
+Required tools (pre-flight checks verify these):
+- `yq` - YAML parser (`brew install yq`)
+- `jq` - JSON parser (`brew install jq`)
+- `curl` - HTTP client (usually pre-installed)
+
+Required environment variables:
+- `RDEV_API_URL` - API endpoint (e.g., `https://rdev.masq-ops.orchard9.ai`)
+- `RDEV_API_KEY` - API key for authentication
+
+Optional:
+- `API_TIMEOUT` - Seconds before API calls timeout (default: 60)
+
+## Tree YAML Format
+
+Tree definitions live in `cookbooks/trees/` and define workflow steps as a DAG.
+
+```yaml
+name: landing-page

+```
+
+### Template Variables
+
+Variables are expanded using Go template syntax (`{{ .path }}`):
+
+- `.vars.<name>` - Variables from CLI flags or tree defaults
+- `.outputs.<step>.<key>` - Outputs captured from previous steps
+
+## Checkpoint Format
+
+Checkpoints are stored in `cookbooks/.checkpoints/` (gitignored) as JSON:
+
+```json
+{
+  "tree": "landing-page",
+  "run_id": "landing-page-1706889600",
+  "status": "partial",
+  "vars": {
+    "project_name": "test-landing"
+  },
+  "steps": {
+    "create-project": {
+      "status": "completed",
+      "started_at": "2025-02-01T10:00:00Z",
+      "completed_at": "2025-02-01T10:00:05Z",
+      "output": {
+        "project_id": "test-landing",
+        "domain": "test-landing.threesix.ai"
+      }
+    },
+    "wait-pipeline": {
+      "status": "failed",
+      "started_at": "2025-02-01T10:00:05Z",
+      "completed_at": "2025-02-01T10:05:00Z",
+      "error": "Pipeline #3 failed with status: failure"
+    }
+  },
+  "last_completed_step": "create-project"
+}
+```
+
+### Checkpoint Status Values
+
+- `pending` - Tree started but no steps completed
+- `partial` - Some steps completed, some pending/failed
+- `completed` - All steps completed successfully
+- `failed` - A step failed with `on_error: fail`
+
+## Creating a New Tree
+
+1. Create `cookbooks/trees/<name>.yaml`
+2. Define steps with dependencies
+3. Add teardown section
+4. Test with `tree-runner.sh run <name> --project-name test-$(date +%s)`
+
+### Best Practices
+
+- **Always include teardown** - Clean up resources even if the tree fails
+- **Use descriptive step names** - They appear in status output
+- **Set on_error: continue for non-critical steps** - Pipeline failures shouldn't block site verification
+- **Capture outputs** - Pass data between steps via outputs, not hardcoded values
+- **Use vars for inputs** - Makes trees reusable with different parameters
+
+### Common Mistakes
+
+#### 1. YAML Indentation Errors
+
+YAML requires consistent indentation with **spaces only** (no tabs). Steps must be indented under `steps:`:
+
+```yaml
+# WRONG - tabs or inconsistent spacing
+steps:
+	create-project:    # Tab character - will fail
+    action: api
+
+# CORRECT - 2-space indent
+steps:
+  create-project:
+    action: api
+```
+
+#### 2. Missing Output Dependencies
+
+If you reference `{{ .outputs.step-name.key }}`, the referencing step **must** have `step-name` in its `depends_on` array. Validation will catch this:
+
+```yaml
+# WRONG - references create-project but doesn't depend on it
+wait-pipeline:
+  action: wait_pipeline
+  project_id: "{{ .outputs.create-project.project_id }}"
+  # Missing: depends_on: [create-project]
+
+# CORRECT
+wait-pipeline:
+  depends_on: [create-project]
+  action: wait_pipeline
+  project_id: "{{ .outputs.create-project.project_id }}"
+```
+
+**Error message:** `wait-pipeline: references outputs from "create-project" but does not depend on it (directly or transitively)`
+
+**Note:** Transitive dependencies are valid. If A depends on B, and B depends on C, then A can use outputs from C.
+
+#### 3. Template Escaping in Shell Commands
+
+Shell commands with template variables need proper quoting to handle spaces and special characters:
+
+```yaml
+# RISKY - unquoted expansion
+action: shell
+command: curl https://{{ .outputs.create-project.domain }}/api/health
+
+# SAFER - quoted expansion
+action: shell
+command: 'curl "https://{{ .outputs.create-project.domain }}/api/health"'
+```
+
+#### 4. Outputs Array Syntax
+
+Outputs must be an array of single-key objects, not a flat object:
+
+```yaml
+# WRONG - flat object
+outputs:
+  project_id: .data.name
+  domain: .data.domain
+
+# CORRECT - array of objects
+outputs:
+  - project_id: .data.name
+  - domain: .data.domain
+```
+
+#### 5. Circular Dependencies
+
+Dependencies form a DAG (directed acyclic graph). Cycles cause validation failures:
+
+```yaml
+# WRONG - circular dependency
+step-a:
+  depends_on: [step-b]
+step-b:
+  depends_on: [step-a]  # Creates cycle!
+
+# CORRECT - linear or fan-out dependencies
+step-a:
+  depends_on: []
+step-b:
+  depends_on: [step-a]
+step-c:
+  depends_on: [step-a]  # Fan-out OK
+```
+
+**Error message:** `Dependency cycle detected`
+
+#### 6. Hardcoded Values Instead of Outputs
+
+Avoid hardcoding values that should come from previous steps:
+
+```yaml
+# WRONG - hardcoded project name
+wait-pipeline:
+  depends_on: [create-project]
+  action: wait_pipeline
+  project_id: "my-test-project"  # Should use output!
+
+# CORRECT - use captured output
+wait-pipeline:
+  depends_on: [create-project]
+  action: wait_pipeline
+  project_id: "{{ .outputs.create-project.project_id }}"
+```
+
+## Migrating from Script to Tree
+
+Compare script steps to tree steps:
+
+| Script Pattern | Tree Equivalent |
+|----------------|-----------------|
+| `api_call POST /project "$json"` | `action: api`, `method: POST` |
+| `wait_for_pipeline "$project"` | `action: wait_pipeline` |
+| `wait_for_site "$domain" 30 5 "$project"` | `action: wait_site` |
+| `diagnose_pipeline_failure "$project"` | `action: diagnose`, `type: pipeline` |
+| `curl ... \| jq ...` | `action: shell`, `command: "..."` |
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Pre-flight check failures
+```
+Pre-flight checks failed:
+  ✗ RDEV_API_URL environment variable is not set
+  ✗ RDEV_API_KEY environment variable is not set
+```
+Set the required environment variables before running trees.
+
+### Tree not found
+```
+Error: Tree 'foo' not found
+Available trees: landing-page, composable-app, sdlc-flow
+```
+Check that `cookbooks/trees/foo.yaml` exists.
+
+### yq not found
+```
+Error: yq is required but not installed
+```
+Install with `brew install yq`.
+
+### Resume finds no checkpoint
+```
+No checkpoint found for tree 'landing-page'
+```
+Run `tree-runner.sh run landing-page ...` first.
+
+### Step failed but outputs missing
+```
+Error: Output 'project_id' not found in step 'create-project'
+```
+The step may have failed silently. Check the checkpoint file:
+```bash
+cat cookbooks/.checkpoints/landing-page.json | jq '.steps["create-project"]'
+```
+
+### API timeout
+```
+curl: (28) Operation timed out
+```
+Increase timeout with `API_TIMEOUT=120 ./tree-runner.sh run ...`
+
+## Available Trees
+
+### Basic Trees
+
+| Tree | Description |
+|------|-------------|
+| `landing-page` | Single-page landing site with astro |
+| `composable-app` | Multi-component monorepo with service + app |
+| `sdlc-flow` | Feature lifecycle with SDLC orchestration |
+
+### Aeries Trees (Multi-Phase Game Development)
+
+Multi-phase workflow demonstrating progressive complexity for an AI agent simulation game:
+
+| Tree | Description | Infrastructure |
+|------|-------------|----------------|
+| `aeries-1-genesis` | Monolith: Core API + React app for agent creation | Postgres |
+| `aeries-2-simulation` | Extraction: Simulation service via strangler pattern | - |
+| `aeries-3-society` | Social layer: Spatial service + Redis pub/sub | Redis |
+
+**Running the Aeries sequence:**
+```bash
+# Phase 1: Create the monolith
+./tree-runner.sh run aeries-1-genesis --project-name aeries-test
+
+# Phase 2: Extract simulation service (operates on existing project)
+./tree-runner.sh run aeries-2-simulation --project-id aeries-test
+
+# Phase 3: Add social layer
+./tree-runner.sh run aeries-3-society --project-id aeries-test
+```
+
+These trees demonstrate:
+- **Multi-phase patterns** - Later phases take `project_id` not `project_name`
+- **Build polling** - Shell-based waits for long-running SDLC builds
+- **Service extraction** - Strangler pattern via `/extract-service` command
+- **No teardown in phases 2+** - Project lifecycle owned by Phase 1
+
+### Slackpath Trees (Reference Architectures)
+
+Progressive complexity paths for building Slack-like platforms:
+
+| Tree | Description | Infrastructure |
+|------|-------------|----------------|
+| `slackpath-1-authenticated-service` | Identity layer: User auth, JWT, protected routes | CockroachDB |
+| `slackpath-2-async-worker-pipeline` | Background jobs: Producer/consumer with Redis | Redis |
+| `slackpath-3-realtime-chat` | WebSockets: Pub/sub broadcasting | Redis |
+| `slackpath-4-microservice-constellation` | Service mesh: Auth + Chat + Worker coordination | CockroachDB + Redis |
+
+**Running a slackpath:**
+```bash
+./cookbooks/scripts/tree-runner.sh run slackpath-1-authenticated-service \
+  --project-name auth-test-$(date +%s)
+```
+
+These trees demonstrate:
+- Infrastructure provisioning (`type: postgres`, `type: redis`)
+- Automatic credential injection (`DATABASE_URL`, `REDIS_URL`)
+- SDLC-driven implementation via `/implement-feature` prompts
+- End-to-end verification scripts

 - **JSON decoding:** ALWAYS use `api.DecodeJSON(r, &req)` to decode request bodies. NEVER use raw `json.NewDecoder(r.Body).Decode()`. The helper handles nil body, EOF, and returns typed errors. Decode error message is always `"invalid request body"`.
 - **Validation:** Use `validate.New()` accumulator for 2+ field checks in handlers: `v := validate.New(); v.Required(req.Name, "name"); v.Required(req.Type, "type"); if err := v.Error() { ... }`. Single-field checks can stay inline. NEVER duplicate validation logic that exists in `internal/validate`.
 - **Error wrapping:** ALWAYS use `%w` (not `%v`) when wrapping errors in `fmt.Errorf`. Using `%v` stringifies the error and breaks `errors.Is`/`errors.As` chains. For non-error types (structs, slices), create a typed error implementing `error` instead of stringifying with `%v`.
+- **Context propagation:** NEVER use `context.Background()` in handlers, services, or adapters that receive a context parameter. Always derive from parent context. Use `context.WithoutCancel(ctx)` for fire-and-forget goroutines that need tracing but independent cancellation.

+## Gap 0: Design Reference Capture & Processing
+
+**Current:** No mechanism for users to provide visual inspiration. Features are described purely in text.
+
+**Required:** Users can provide URLs or screenshots as design references, which inform the Architect's questions and the Blueprint's design system section.

+```
+
+### Two Input Types
+
+| Input | Capture Method | Storage |
+|-------|----------------|---------|
+| **URL** | Playwright screenshots the page automatically | `/references/{blueprintId}/{refId}.png` |
+| **Screenshot** | User uploads image (drag/drop, paste, file picker) | Same storage path |
+
+### Implementation Required
+
+1. **Reference Capture Service:**
+   - For URLs: Reuse `verify_executor.go` pattern (Playwright pod)
+   - For uploads: Standard file upload handling
+   - Store thumbnails alongside Blueprint
+
+2. **Chat Endpoint Enhancement:**
+   - Accept `references[]` array in request body
+   - Process references before LLM call
+   - Include reference images in Architect prompt context
+
+3. **Architect Prompt Updates:**
+   - Describe what it observes in natural language
+   - Ask clarifying questions about design intent
+   - Extract structured design tokens into Blueprint
+
+4. **Blueprint Schema:**
+   - Add `references.items[]` array
+   - Add `sections.designSystem` section
+   - Track which references informed which design decisions
+
+5. **Plan Pane Rendering:**
+   - Show reference thumbnails in UI
+   - Display extracted design tokens
+   - Allow user to add annotations
+
+### Complexity: Medium
+
+- URL capture reuses existing Playwright infrastructure
+- File upload is standard pattern
+- Main work is Architect prompt engineering for visual understanding
+- LLM vision capabilities needed (Claude can see images natively)
+
+---
+
+## Gap 1: Blueprint Storage & Chat API
+
+**Current:** Features are created via `POST /sdlc/features` with a complete spec. No iterative refinement.
+
+**Required:** Multi-turn conversation that builds a Blueprint incrementally.
+
+### What's Missing

+└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
+```
+
+### Implementation Required
+
+1. **Database Tables:**
+   - `blueprints` - stores structured Blueprint JSON
+   - `blueprint_messages` - conversation history with snapshots
+
+2. **API Endpoints:**
+   - `POST /projects/{id}/blueprint/chat` - send message, get reply + updated blueprint
+   - `GET /projects/{id}/blueprints` - list blueprints
+   - `GET /projects/{id}/blueprints/{id}` - get specific blueprint
+   - `DELETE /projects/{id}/blueprints/{id}` - discard draft
+
+3. **Service Layer:**
+   - `ArchitectService` - manages conversation, calls LLM, updates Blueprint
+
+### Complexity: Medium
+- Schema is defined (see app-vision.md)
+- Standard CRUD + LLM integration
+- Most work is in prompt engineering for Architect
+
+---
+
+## Gap 2: Architect Agent Persona
+
+**Current:** We have coding agents (`/implement-feature`). They write code, not specs.
+
+**Required:** An agent that asks questions, fills in a structured Blueprint, knows when to stop.
+
+### What's Missing

+│  ...continues until Blueprint is complete...                    │
+└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
+```
+
+### Implementation Required
+
+1. **System Prompt:**
+   - `.claude/agents/architect.md` - detailed persona
+   - Structured output format (reply + Blueprint JSON)
+   - Question strategy (when to ask vs assume)
+
+2. **Structured Output Parsing:**
+   - LLM returns `{reply: string, blueprint: Blueprint}`
+   - Validate Blueprint against schema
+   - Handle partial updates (delta vs full replacement)
+
+3. **Completeness Logic:**
+   - `isReadyToBuild(blueprint)` function
+   - Clear rules for when questions are resolved
+   - Override mechanism for user to force build
+
+### Complexity: Medium-High
+- Prompt engineering is iterative
+- Structured output from LLMs can be fragile
+- Need fallback handling for malformed responses
+
+---
+
+## Gap 3: Operation Tracking (Tree Runner in DB)
+
+**Current:** Tree workflows run via shell script (`tree-runner.sh`). State in local JSON files.
+
+**Required:** Operations tracked in database, queryable via API, streamable to UI.
+
+### What's Missing

+└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
+```
+
+### Implementation Required
+
+1. **Database Tables:**
+   - `operations` - tracks running/completed operations
+   - `operation_events` - event log for replay/streaming
+
+2. **Service Layer:**
+   - `OrchestratorService` - manages operation lifecycle
+   - Port tree-runner logic from bash to Go
+   - Event emission during execution
+
+3. **API Endpoints:**
+   - `POST /projects/{id}/operations` - start operation
+   - `GET /projects/{id}/operations/{id}` - get status
+   - `GET /projects/{id}/operations/{id}/stream` - SSE stream
+
+4. **Worker Integration:**
+   - SDLC executor emits events as it progresses
+   - Events written to `operation_events` table
+   - SSE handler reads from table and streams
+
+### Complexity: High
+- Tree runner logic is non-trivial (dependencies, outputs, error handling)
+- SSE streaming requires careful connection management
+- Need to handle operation cancellation, resumption
+
+---
+
+## Gap 4: Real-Time Progress Streaming
+
+**Current:** Webhooks fire on build complete. No per-step visibility.
+
+**Required:** SSE stream showing "Designing schema... Writing handlers... Running tests..."

+└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
+```
+
+### Implementation Required
+
+1. **SDLC Executor Changes:**
+   - Emit events at phase transitions
+   - Emit progress within phases (task completion)
+   - Write events to `operation_events` table
+
+2. **SSE Handler:**
+   - `GET /operations/{id}/stream`
+   - Long-lived connection
+   - Read events from DB (or Redis pub/sub)
+   - Handle client disconnection gracefully
+
+3. **Event Types:**
+   ```go
+   type OperationEvent struct {
+       Type      string    // "phase", "progress", "artifact", "error", "complete"
+       Phase     string    // "spec", "design", "implement", "test", "deploy"
+       Status    string    // "in_progress", "complete", "failed"
+       Message   string    // Human-readable
+       Progress  float64   // 0.0 to 1.0 for granular progress
+       Timestamp time.Time
+   }
+   ```
+
+### Complexity: Medium
+- SSE is straightforward in Go
+- Main work is instrumenting SDLC executor
+- Need to balance granularity vs noise

+
+## Gap 5: Blueprint → SDLC Feature Conversion
+
+**Current:** SDLC features are created manually with spec documents.
+
+**Required:** Automated conversion from structured Blueprint to SDLC feature spec.

+1. **Spec Template:**
+   ```markdown
+   # Feature: {{.Feature}}
+
+   ## Summary
+   {{.Summary}}
+
+   ## Data Model
+   {{range .Sections.DataModel.Entities}}

+   {{end}}
+
+   ## Assumptions
+   {{range .Assumptions}}
+   - {{.Assumption}}
+   {{end}}
+   ```
+
+2. **Conversion Service:**
+   - Takes Blueprint, renders spec.md
+   - Creates SDLC feature via existing API
+   - Links Blueprint to created feature (`built_feature_slug`)
+
+### Complexity: Low
+- Template rendering is straightforward
+- SDLC feature creation already exists
+- Main work is template design
+
+---
+
+## Gap 6: Frontend (Next.js Studio)
+
+**Current:** No frontend. All interaction via API/CLI.
+
+**Required:** Three-pane interface (Chat, Plan, Preview).
+
+### What's Missing
+
+Everything. This is a new application.
+
+### Implementation Required
+
+1. **Project Setup:**
+   - Next.js 14 with App Router
+   - Tailwind CSS for styling
+   - Authentication (integrate with rdev auth)
+
+2. **Core Components:**
+   ```
+   apps/studio/
+   ├── app/
+   │   ├── page.tsx              # Template selection
+   │   ├── projects/

+       └── sse.ts               # SSE connection manager
+   ```
+
+3. **State Management:**
+   - Blueprint state (updated on each chat response)
+   - Operation state (updated via SSE)
+   - UI state (which pane is focused, etc.)
+
+4. **Key Interactions:**
+   - Send chat message → receive reply + blueprint
+   - Click "Build It" → start operation → show progress
+   - Operation complete → refresh preview iframe
+
+### Complexity: Medium
+- Standard Next.js app
+- SSE client requires careful handling
+- Most complexity is in polish and UX
+
+---
+
+## Gap 7: Platform Service Infrastructure
+
+**Current:** Projects manage their own integrations. No shared services, no credential management.
+
+**Required:** A service catalog with provisioning, credential injection, and upgrade paths for existing projects.
+
+### The "Upgrade" Problem

+Build infrastructure with simplest service first, then add complexity:
+
+| Order | Service | Why This Order |

+### Complexity: High
+
+- Service catalog is straightforward (YAML/DB)
+- Each provisioner is unique (Loki vs Resend vs PostHog)
+- Credential encryption and management needs care
+- Integration templates need to handle Go + Node + various frameworks
+- PR creation requires git operations
+
+### Starting Point: Logging with Loki
+
+```go
+// internal/adapter/loki/provisioner.go
+type LokiProvisioner struct {
+    lokiURL    string
+    adminToken string  // For tenant creation if using multi-tenant Loki
+}
+
+func (p *LokiProvisioner) Provision(ctx context.Context, req ProvisionRequest) (*ProvisionResult, error) {
+    // For single-tenant Loki, just create a unique label prefix
+    tenantID := fmt.Sprintf("project-%s", req.ProjectID)
+
+    return &ProvisionResult{
+        Credentials: map[string]string{
+            "LOKI_URL":       p.lokiURL,
+            "LOKI_TENANT_ID": tenantID,
+        },
+        Config: map[string]string{
+            "service_name": req.ProjectName,
+        },
+    }, nil
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+## Gap 8: Dual Environment Support
+
+**Current:** Single deployment per project. Main branch = production.
+
+**Required:** Staging + Production environments. Build deploys to staging, "Publish" promotes to production.
+
+### The Environment Model
+

+│  └─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘   │
+└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
+```
+
+### Implementation Required
+
+#### 1. DNS Changes
+
+```go
+// On project creation, create both records (prod may be placeholder)
+CreateDNSRecord("staging.cool-project.threesix.ai", stagingIP)
+CreateDNSRecord("cool-project.threesix.ai", prodIP)  // Or placeholder until first publish
+```
+
+#### 2. K8s Deployment Model
+
+```yaml
+# Option A: Two deployments in same namespace
+apiVersion: apps/v1
+kind: Deployment
+metadata:
+  name: cool-project-staging
+  namespace: cool-project
+---
+apiVersion: apps/v1
+kind: Deployment
+metadata:
+  name: cool-project-production
+  namespace: cool-project
+
+# Option B: Two namespaces (cleaner isolation)
+# cool-project-staging namespace
+# cool-project-production namespace
+```
+
+**Recommendation:** Same namespace, two deployments. Simpler to manage, secrets can be shared or scoped.
+
+#### 3. Database Model
+
+Two options:
+
+**A. Same database, schema prefixes:**
+```sql
+-- Staging tables
+staging_users, staging_posts, staging_...
+
+-- Production tables
+prod_users, prod_posts, prod_...
+```
+
+**B. Separate databases (cleaner):**
+```
+cool-project-staging (CockroachDB database)
+cool-project-production (CockroachDB database)
+```
+
+**Recommendation:** Separate databases. Cleaner isolation, no risk of cross-env data access.
+
+#### 4. Project Schema Updates
+
+```sql
+ALTER TABLE projects ADD COLUMN environments JSONB NOT NULL DEFAULT '{
+  "staging": {"enabled": true, "deployed_at": null},
+  "production": {"enabled": false, "deployed_at": null, "published_at": null}
+}';
+```
+
+#### 5. Publish API
+
+```
+POST /projects/{projectId}/publish
+{
+  "fromEnvironment": "staging",  // Usually staging
+  "toEnvironment": "production"
+}
+
+Response:
+{
+  "operationId": "op_xyz789",
+  "status": "publishing",
+  "streamUrl": "/operations/{operationId}/stream"
+}
+```
+
+**Publish Flow:**
+1. Validate staging is healthy
+2. Provision production credentials for any services (if not exist)
+3. Run migrations on production database
+4. Deploy staging image to production deployment
+5. Health check production
+6. Update DNS if needed
+7. Update project.environments.production
+
+### Complexity: Medium
+
+- DNS: Already have CloudflareAdapter, just create two records
+- K8s: Straightforward deployment duplication
+- Database: CockroachDB adapter supports multiple databases
+- Main complexity is the publish flow coordination
+
+### Defer Until After Gap 7
+
+Dual environments can work with platform services, but we can build Gap 7 (services) first:
+- Services provision for a single environment initially
+- Then extend to environment-aware provisioning
+- Then add the publish flow that syncs services to production
+
+---
+
+## Summary: Work Required
+
+| Gap | Effort | Dependencies | Critical Path |
+|-----|--------|--------------|---------------|
+| 0. Design References | 2-3 days | Gap 1 (storage) | Yes (for design flows) |
+| 1. Blueprint Storage | 2-3 days | None | Yes |
+| 2. Architect Agent | 3-5 days | Gap 1 | Yes |
+| 3. Operation Tracking | 4-6 days | None | Yes |
+| 4. Progress Streaming | 2-3 days | Gap 3 | Yes |
+| 5. Blueprint → SDLC | 1-2 days | Gap 1 | Yes |
+| 6. Frontend | 5-7 days | Gaps 1-5 | Yes |
+| 7. Platform Services | 5-8 days | None (can start now) | Parallel track |
+| 8. Dual Environments | 3-5 days | Gap 7 | After services work |
+
+**Total Estimate:** 4-5 weeks of focused work (Gaps 7-8 can parallel with 1-6)
+
+**Service Rollout (within Gap 7):**
+1. Logging (Loki) - 2 days
+2. Email (Resend) - 2 days
+3. Stats (PostHog) - 2 days
+4. Auth (Clerk) - 3 days
+
+**Note:** Gap 0 (Design References) can be implemented in parallel with Gap 2 (Architect Agent) since both involve Architect prompt engineering. The reference capture infrastructure (Gap 0) builds on Gap 1's storage layer.
+
+### Critical Path

+Gap 3 (Operations) ─┴──► Gap 4 (Streaming) ────────┘
+
+
+Parallel Track:
+
+Gap 7 (Services) ──► Logging ──► Email ──► Stats ──► Auth
+        │
+        └──► Gap 8 (Environments) ──► Publish Flow
+```
+
+Gap 7 can start immediately and run parallel to the Studio work.
+Gap 8 depends on Gap 7 for service credential handling per environment.

+
+## Risk Assessment
+
+| Risk | Likelihood | Impact | Mitigation |
+|------|------------|--------|------------|
+| Architect outputs malformed JSON | High | Medium | JSON schema validation, retry logic |
+| SSE connections drop | Medium | Low | Client-side reconnection, event replay from DB |
+| Blueprint schema too restrictive | Medium | Medium | Start minimal, add sections iteratively |
+| LLM latency affects chat UX | Low | High | Stream partial responses, show typing indicator |
+| Build failures leave broken state | Low | Medium | SDLC already handles partial state |
+
+---
+
+## What's NOT a Gap
+
+These are already solved by the current rdev foundation:
+
+- **Project provisioning** - K8s, DNS, git all work
+- **Template seeding** - Composable monorepo templates
+- **SDLC execution** - Classifier + worker + artifact tracking
+- **CI/CD** - Woodpecker integration
+- **Database provisioning** - CockroachDB adapter
+- **Webhooks** - Event dispatcher with retry
+
+The foundation is solid. The gaps are about **exposing** existing capabilities through a conversational UI, not rebuilding core functionality.
