Default to using Bun instead of Node.js. - Use `bun ` instead of `node ` or `ts-node ` - Use `bun test` instead of `jest` or `vitest` - Use `bun build ` instead of `webpack` or `esbuild` - Use `bun install` instead of `npm install` or `yarn install` or `pnpm install` - Use `bun run ``` With the following `frontend.tsx`: ```tsx#frontend.tsx import React from "react"; import { createRoot } from "react-dom/client"; // import .css files directly and it works import './index.css'; const root = createRoot(document.body); export default function Frontend() { return

Hello, world!

; } root.render(); ``` Then, run index.ts ```sh bun --hot ./index.ts ``` For more information, read the Bun API docs in `node_modules/bun-types/docs/**.mdx`. ## Project invariants (Budget 2.0) - `src/domain/` is pure: no React, no IndexedDB, no `Date.now()`, no `new Date()` without an explicit argument. It must be testable with no DOM. - Money is a float. Always round with `roundMoney` from `src/domain/money.ts` after any division, after any FX conversion, and before persisting. - **`roundMoney(amount, digits)` takes a DIGIT COUNT, not a currency code.** Decimal places live in `Dataset.currencies`, because the owner defines currencies; resolve them with `digitsFor(dataset.currencies, code)`. The argument is required on purpose — a default of 2 is right for every currency the app shipped with, so a missed call site would pass every test and be silently wrong for the first zero-decimal currency added. - When splitting an amount, never round the last part independently. Compute it as `total - sum(others)` so the parts sum exactly to the whole. - `MonthId` is the string `"YYYY-MM"`. Stored data never contains `Date` objects. - **`Currency` is an open string code; `Dataset.currencies` is the authority.** There is no global list of valid currencies any more. A code is IDENTITY — it keys the FX table and every stored `Money` — so codes are normalised uppercase, are never editable, and a currency still referenced cannot be removed (`currencyUsage` names what refers to it). `parseDatasetJson` validates the table and every `Money` against it; that boundary check is what replaced the compile-time safety of the old closed union. - The envelope rollover fold has exactly one implementation, in `src/domain/fold.ts`. Year and summary views aggregate over it — they never reimplement the math. - Over-budget is always allowed. Never add validation that blocks it. - An amount field parses its own currency: "30$" is thirty dollars. Use `parseMoneyInput` (`src/ui/moneyInput.ts`) and keep the input `type="text"` — a number input discards the "$" before the parser ever sees it. - Base path comes from `BUN_PUBLIC_BASE_PATH`; never hardcode a subpath, and read it through a `try/catch` accessor — see the gotcha below. - A post's allocation is a dated series, `Post.rules: RuleVersion[]`, resolved by `ruleAt(post, monthId)`. `Post.standingRule` no longer exists. A post with no applicable version allocates zero; a per-month override still wins outright. - Posts are archived, never deleted, because purchases reference them. Archived posts still fold. ## Start here - `ARCHITECTURE.md` — layers, data flow, and why the non-obvious choices are what they are. Read it before changing anything structural. - `TODO.md` — queued work, each item carrying the reasoning already settled. - `PRODUCT.md` — who this is for and what must never break. - `docs/superpowers/specs/` — design decisions, including alternatives rejected. ## Gotchas that cost real bugs Each of these shipped once. Re-introducing one is a regression, not a style choice. - **Never read `event.target.value` inside a `mutate()` callback.** `mutate` defers behind the write queue; React resets the input's DOM value first, so you commit the old value. Capture into a `const` in the handler. `src/ui/eventCapture.test.ts` fails the build otherwise. - **`process.env.BUN_PUBLIC_*` must be read via `try/catch`** (see `readBasePathEnv`). Bun inlines the literal only when the variable is set; unset, the bare reference reaches the browser and throws before the app boots. A `typeof process` guard does not work — it survives inlining and discards the inlined value, silently breaking subpath deploys. - **Never define a bare `--accent` CSS variable.** shadcn owns it as a hover BACKGROUND paired with `--accent-foreground`; setting one without the other drops hover contrast below WCAG AA app-wide. Redefine shadcn tokens only in pairs — `src/cssPairs.test.ts` enforces it — and put brand colour on `--primary`, never `--accent`. Project tokens are `--budget-*`. - **A `var(--token)` naming a token `src/index.css` does not define paints NOTHING, silently.** An undefined custom property invalidates the whole declaration: no warning, no throw, no fallback. Renaming `--rule` this way killed the carry meter and no test noticed. `src/ui/cssTokens.test.ts` guards it. - **A React error boundary does not catch event-handler throws.** Domain functions that throw must be guarded at the call site when called from one. - **Do not "fix" a domain throw by making it return a fallback.** Silently wrong numbers are worse than a visible error in a budgeting app. ## Deliberately absent validation Adding a "missing" guard here is a regression: - going over budget, anywhere; - allocation percentages summing past 100%; - splits that do not sum to the total (the remainder-absorbing split reconciles them by design); - negative amounts — a refund is a normal line. ## Verification limits **There IS a browser here.** `google-chrome` is on PATH, and `scripts/screenshot.ts` drives it over CDP — it waits past the async IndexedDB read (which Chrome's own `--screenshot` does not, which is why the docs used to claim no browser existed), and it reports console errors and uncaught exceptions. Read the PNG it writes. Use it before claiming anything about layout. The whole recipe, from a running `bun run dev`: ```sh bun scripts/demo-data.ts /tmp/seed.js bun scripts/screenshot.ts http://localhost:3000/month/2026-09 /tmp/shot.png \ --eval-file=/tmp/seed.js --reload ``` Then read `/tmp/shot.png`. Other flags: `--dark`, `--full`, `--w/--h`, `--click=`, `--profile=` (keeps a service worker and IndexedDB across runs — required for anything stateful), `--eval-after-file` (observe a flow that ends in a navigation from the far side of it). Two things that would otherwise waste your time: - **`--reload` is not optional.** Chrome starts from a fresh profile each run, so the app re-seeds itself empty; seeding IndexedDB only takes effect on the next boot. Without it every screenshot shows an app full of zeros. - **This container's fontconfig resolves every generic family to Fira Code, a monospace font.** The UI then renders monospaced in a way no real user sees, and the last agent to look nearly "fixed" a font bug that did not exist. `scripts/screenshot-fonts.conf` corrects it and the script applies it automatically — do not undo that, and do not trust a screenshot taken with `FONTCONFIG_FILE` set to something else. Still **not** verifiable here, so do not claim it: real offline behaviour, the install and update prompts, opening the generated `.ods` in a spreadsheet, and anything about how the design *feels*. A screenshot proves a layout exists and is not broken; it does not prove it is good. Substitute a real check where one exists — structural validation of the `.ods`, curl against the dev server, pure-function tests — and state plainly what still needs a human.
