Previously, colors were only enabled when stdout was a TTY, which caused
colored output to be stripped when the server ran as a subprocess. Now
colors are enabled by default in Node.js and can be disabled with
LOG_COLORS=false if needed.
Also removed the unused isTTY() function.
- Replaced console.log and console.error statements with logger methods from @automaker/utils in various UI components, ensuring consistent log formatting and improved readability.
- Enhanced error handling by utilizing logger methods to provide clearer context for issues encountered during operations.
- Updated multiple views and hooks to integrate the new logging system, improving maintainability and debugging capabilities.
This update significantly enhances the observability of UI components, facilitating easier troubleshooting and monitoring.
- Introduced a new command for fetching and validating GitHub issues, allowing users to address issues directly from the command line.
- Added a release command to bump the version of the application and build the Electron app, ensuring version consistency across UI and server packages.
- Updated package.json files for both UI and server to version 0.7.1, reflecting the latest changes.
- Implemented version utility in the server to read the version from package.json, enhancing version management across the application.
- Introduced a restricted file system wrapper to ensure all file operations are confined to the script's directory, enhancing security.
- Updated various modules to utilize the new secure file system methods, replacing direct fs calls with validated operations.
- Enhanced path validation in the server routes and context loaders to prevent unauthorized access to the file system.
- Adjusted environment variable handling to use centralized methods for reading and writing API keys, ensuring consistent security practices.
This change improves the overall security posture of the application by enforcing strict file access controls and validating paths before any operations are performed.
Address code review feedback from Gemini Code Assist:
1. Reduce duplication in ClaudeProvider catch block
- Consolidate error creation logic into single path
- Use conditional message building instead of duplicate blocks
- Improves maintainability and follows DRY principle
2. Better separation of concerns in error utilities
- Move default retry-after (60s) logic from extractRetryAfter to classifyError
- extractRetryAfter now only extracts explicit values
- classifyError provides default using nullish coalescing (?? 60)
- Clearer single responsibility for each function
3. Update test to match new behavior
- extractRetryAfter now returns undefined for rate limits without explicit value
- Default value is tested in classifyError tests instead
All 162 tests still passing ✅
Builds successfully with no TypeScript errors ✅
- Add rate_limit error type to ErrorInfo classification
- Implement isRateLimitError() and extractRetryAfter() utilities
- Enhance ClaudeProvider error handling with actionable messages
- Add comprehensive test coverage (8 new tests, 162 total passing)
**Problem:**
When hitting API rate limits, users saw cryptic 'exit code 1' errors
with no explanation or guidance on how to resolve the issue.
**Solution:**
- Detect rate limit errors (429) and extract retry-after duration
- Provide clear, user-friendly error messages with:
* Explanation of what went wrong
* How long to wait before retrying
* Actionable tip to reduce concurrency in auto-mode
- Preserve original error details for debugging
**Changes:**
- libs/types: Add 'rate_limit' type and retryAfter field to ErrorInfo
- libs/utils: Add rate limit detection and extraction logic
- apps/server: Enhance ClaudeProvider with better error messages
- tests: Add 8 new test cases covering rate limit scenarios
**Benefits:**
✅ Clear communication - users understand the problem
✅ Actionable guidance - users know how to fix it
✅ Better debugging - original errors preserved
✅ Type safety - proper TypeScript typing
✅ Comprehensive testing - all edge cases covered
See CHANGELOG_RATE_LIMIT_HANDLING.md for detailed documentation.
- Introduced a new utility function `loadContextFiles` to load project-specific context files from the `.automaker/context/` directory, enhancing agent prompts with project rules and guidelines.
- Updated `AgentService` and `AutoModeService` to utilize the new context loading functionality, combining context prompts with existing system prompts for improved agent performance.
- Added comprehensive documentation on the context files system, including usage examples and metadata structure, to facilitate better understanding and implementation.
- Removed redundant context loading logic from `AutoModeService`, streamlining the codebase.
These changes aim to improve the agent's contextual awareness and adherence to project-specific conventions.
Changes:
- Added a new package, @automaker/prompts, containing AI prompt templates for enhancing user-written task descriptions.
- Implemented four enhancement modes: improve, technical, simplify, and acceptance, each with corresponding system prompts and examples.
- Updated relevant packages to utilize the new prompts package, ensuring backward compatibility with existing imports.
- Enhanced documentation to include usage examples and integration details for the new prompts.
Benefits:
✅ Streamlined AI prompt management across the codebase
✅ Improved clarity and usability for AI-powered features
✅ Comprehensive documentation for developers
All tests passing.
Convert all shared library packages from CommonJS to ESM for consistency
with apps/server and modern JavaScript standards.
Changes:
- Add "type": "module" to package.json for all libs
- Update tsconfig.json to use "NodeNext" module/moduleResolution
- Add .js extensions to all relative imports
Packages migrated:
- @automaker/dependency-resolver (already ESM, added .js extension)
- @automaker/git-utils (CommonJS → ESM)
- @automaker/model-resolver (CommonJS → ESM)
- @automaker/platform (CommonJS → ESM)
- @automaker/utils (CommonJS → ESM)
Benefits:
✅ Consistent module system across all packages
✅ Better tree-shaking and modern bundling support
✅ Native browser support (future-proof)
✅ Fixes E2E CI server startup issues
All tests passing: 632/632 server tests
