+# Project Build and Fix Command
+
+Run all builds and intelligently fix any failures based on what changed.
+
+## Instructions
+
+1. **Run the build**
+
+   ```bash
+   npm run build
+   ```
+
+   This builds all packages and the UI application.
+
+2. **If the build succeeds**, report success and stop.
+
+3. **If the build fails**, analyze the failures:
+   - Note which build step failed and the error messages
+   - Check for TypeScript compilation errors, missing dependencies, or configuration issues
+   - Run `git diff main` to see what code has changed
+
+4. **Determine the nature of the failure**:
+   - **If the failure is due to intentional changes** (new features, refactoring, dependency updates):
+     - Fix any TypeScript type errors introduced by the changes
+     - Update build configuration if needed (e.g., tsconfig.json, vite.config.mts)
+     - Ensure all new dependencies are properly installed
+     - Fix import paths or module resolution issues
+
+   - **If the failure appears to be a regression** (broken imports, missing files, configuration errors):
+     - Fix the source code to restore the build
+     - Check for accidentally deleted files or broken references
+     - Verify build configuration files are correct
+
+5. **Common build issues to check**:
+   - **TypeScript errors**: Fix type mismatches, missing types, or incorrect imports
+   - **Missing dependencies**: Run `npm install` if packages are missing
+   - **Import/export errors**: Fix incorrect import paths or missing exports
+   - **Build configuration**: Check tsconfig.json, vite.config.mts, or other build configs
+   - **Package build order**: Ensure `build:packages` completes before building apps
+
+6. **How to decide if it's intentional vs regression**:
+   - Look at the git diff and commit messages
+   - If the change was deliberate and introduced new code that needs fixing → fix the new code
+   - If the change broke existing functionality that should still build → fix the regression
+   - When in doubt, ask the user
+
+7. **After making fixes**, re-run the build to verify everything compiles successfully.
+
+8. **Report summary** of what was fixed (TypeScript errors, configuration issues, missing dependencies, etc.).

+# Project Test and Fix Command
+
+Run all tests and intelligently fix any failures based on what changed.
+
+## Instructions
+
+1. **Run all tests**
+
+   ```bash
+   npm run test:all
+   ```
+
+2. **If all tests pass**, report success and stop.
+
+3. **If any tests fail**, analyze the failures:
+   - Note which tests failed and their error messages
+   - Run `git diff main` to see what code has changed
+
+4. **Determine the nature of the change**:
+   - **If the logic change is intentional** (new feature, refactor, behavior change):
+     - Update the failing tests to match the new expected behavior
+     - The tests should reflect what the code NOW does correctly
+
+   - **If the logic change appears to be a bug** (regression, unintended side effect):
+     - Fix the source code to restore the expected behavior
+     - Do NOT modify the tests - they are catching a real bug
+
+5. **How to decide if it's a bug vs intentional change**:
+   - Look at the git diff and commit messages
+   - If the change was deliberate and the test expectations are now outdated → update tests
+   - If the change broke existing functionality that should still work → fix the code
+   - When in doubt, ask the user
+
+6. **After making fixes**, re-run the tests to verify everything passes.
+
+7. **Report summary** of what was fixed (tests updated vs code fixed).

+# CLAUDE.md
+
+This file provides guidance to Claude Code (claude.ai/code) when working with code in this repository.
+
+## Project Overview
+
+Automaker is an autonomous AI development studio built as an npm workspace monorepo. It provides a Kanban-based workflow where AI agents (powered by Claude Agent SDK) implement features in isolated git worktrees.
+
+## Common Commands
+
+```bash
+# Development
+npm run dev                 # Interactive launcher (choose web or electron)
+npm run dev:web             # Web browser mode (localhost:3007)
+npm run dev:electron        # Desktop app mode
+npm run dev:electron:debug  # Desktop with DevTools open
+
+# Building
+npm run build               # Build web application
+npm run build:packages      # Build all shared packages (required before other builds)
+npm run build:electron      # Build desktop app for current platform
+npm run build:server        # Build server only
+
+# Testing
+npm run test                # E2E tests (Playwright, headless)
+npm run test:headed         # E2E tests with browser visible
+npm run test:server         # Server unit tests (Vitest)
+npm run test:packages       # All shared package tests
+npm run test:all            # All tests (packages + server)
+
+# Single test file
+npm run test:server -- tests/unit/specific.test.ts
+
+# Linting and formatting
+npm run lint                # ESLint
+npm run format              # Prettier write
+npm run format:check        # Prettier check
+```
+
+## Architecture
+
+### Monorepo Structure
+
+```
+automaker/
+├── apps/
+│   ├── ui/           # React + Vite + Electron frontend (port 3007)
+│   └── server/       # Express + WebSocket backend (port 3008)
+└── libs/             # Shared packages (@automaker/*)
+    ├── types/        # Core TypeScript definitions (no dependencies)
+    ├── utils/        # Logging, errors, image processing, context loading
+    ├── prompts/      # AI prompt templates
+    ├── platform/     # Path management, security, process spawning
+    ├── model-resolver/    # Claude model alias resolution
+    ├── dependency-resolver/  # Feature dependency ordering
+    └── git-utils/    # Git operations & worktree management
+```
+
+### Package Dependency Chain
+
+Packages can only depend on packages above them:
+
+```
+@automaker/types (no dependencies)
+    ↓
+@automaker/utils, @automaker/prompts, @automaker/platform, @automaker/model-resolver, @automaker/dependency-resolver
+    ↓
+@automaker/git-utils
+    ↓
+@automaker/server, @automaker/ui
+```
+
+### Key Technologies
+
+- **Frontend**: React 19, Vite 7, Electron 39, TanStack Router, Zustand 5, Tailwind CSS 4
+- **Backend**: Express 5, WebSocket (ws), Claude Agent SDK, node-pty
+- **Testing**: Playwright (E2E), Vitest (unit)
+
+### Server Architecture
+
+The server (`apps/server/src/`) follows a modular pattern:
+
+- `routes/` - Express route handlers organized by feature (agent, features, auto-mode, worktree, etc.)
+- `services/` - Business logic (AgentService, AutoModeService, FeatureLoader, TerminalService)
+- `providers/` - AI provider abstraction (currently Claude via Claude Agent SDK)
+- `lib/` - Utilities (events, auth, worktree metadata)
+
+### Frontend Architecture
+
+The UI (`apps/ui/src/`) uses:
+
+- `routes/` - TanStack Router file-based routing
+- `components/views/` - Main view components (board, settings, terminal, etc.)
+- `store/` - Zustand stores with persistence (app-store.ts, setup-store.ts)
+- `hooks/` - Custom React hooks
+- `lib/` - Utilities and API client
+
+## Data Storage
+
+### Per-Project Data (`.automaker/`)
+
+```
+.automaker/
+├── features/              # Feature JSON files and images
+│   └── {featureId}/
+│       ├── feature.json
+│       ├── agent-output.md
+│       └── images/
+├── context/               # Context files for AI agents (CLAUDE.md, etc.)
+├── settings.json          # Project-specific settings
+├── spec.md               # Project specification
+└── analysis.json         # Project structure analysis
+```
+
+### Global Data (`DATA_DIR`, default `./data`)
+
+```
+data/
+├── settings.json          # Global settings, profiles, shortcuts
+├── credentials.json       # API keys
+├── sessions-metadata.json # Chat session metadata
+└── agent-sessions/        # Conversation histories
+```
+
+## Import Conventions
+
+Always import from shared packages, never from old paths:
+
+```typescript
+// ✅ Correct
+import type { Feature, ExecuteOptions } from '@automaker/types';
+import { createLogger, classifyError } from '@automaker/utils';
+import { getEnhancementPrompt } from '@automaker/prompts';
+import { getFeatureDir, ensureAutomakerDir } from '@automaker/platform';
+import { resolveModelString } from '@automaker/model-resolver';
+import { resolveDependencies } from '@automaker/dependency-resolver';
+import { getGitRepositoryDiffs } from '@automaker/git-utils';
+
+// ❌ Never import from old paths
+import { Feature } from '../services/feature-loader'; // Wrong
+import { createLogger } from '../lib/logger'; // Wrong
+```
+
+## Key Patterns
+
+### Event-Driven Architecture
+
+All server operations emit events that stream to the frontend via WebSocket. Events are created using `createEventEmitter()` from `lib/events.ts`.
+
+### Git Worktree Isolation
+
+Each feature executes in an isolated git worktree, created via `@automaker/git-utils`. This protects the main branch during AI agent execution.
+
+### Context Files
+
+Project-specific rules are stored in `.automaker/context/` and automatically loaded into agent prompts via `loadContextFiles()` from `@automaker/utils`.
+
+### Model Resolution
+
+Use `resolveModelString()` from `@automaker/model-resolver` to convert model aliases:
+
+- `haiku` → `claude-haiku-4-5`
+- `sonnet` → `claude-sonnet-4-20250514`
+- `opus` → `claude-opus-4-5-20251101`
+
+## Environment Variables
+
+- `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` - Anthropic API key (or use Claude Code CLI auth)
+- `PORT` - Server port (default: 3008)
+- `DATA_DIR` - Data storage directory (default: ./data)
+- `ALLOWED_ROOT_DIRECTORY` - Restrict file operations to specific directory
+- `AUTOMAKER_MOCK_AGENT=true` - Enable mock agent mode for CI testing

+
+### Project Structure
+
+Automaker is organized as an npm workspace monorepo:
+
+```
+automaker/
+├── apps/
+│   ├── ui/              # React + Vite + Electron frontend
+│   └── server/          # Express + WebSocket backend
+├── libs/
+│   ├── @automaker/types/            # Shared TypeScript types
+│   ├── @automaker/utils/            # Utility functions
+│   ├── @automaker/prompts/          # AI prompt templates
+│   ├── @automaker/platform/         # Platform abstractions
+│   ├── @automaker/model-resolver/   # AI model resolution
+│   ├── @automaker/dependency-resolver/ # Dependency management
+│   └── @automaker/git-utils/        # Git operations
+├── docs/                # Documentation
+└── package.json         # Root package configuration
+```
+
+**Key conventions:**
+
+- Always import from `@automaker/*` shared packages, never use relative paths to `libs/`
+- Frontend code lives in `apps/ui/`
+- Backend code lives in `apps/server/`
+- Shared logic should be in the appropriate `libs/` package
+

+
+## Pull Request Process
+
+This section covers everything you need to know about contributing changes through pull requests, from creating your branch to getting your code merged.
+
+### Branch Naming Convention
+
+We use a consistent branch naming pattern to keep our repository organized:
+
+```
+<type>/<description>
+```
+
+**Branch types:**
+
+| Type       | Purpose                  | Example                           |
+| ---------- | ------------------------ | --------------------------------- |
+| `feature`  | New functionality        | `feature/add-user-authentication` |
+| `fix`      | Bug fixes                | `fix/resolve-memory-leak`         |
+| `docs`     | Documentation changes    | `docs/update-contributing-guide`  |
+| `refactor` | Code restructuring       | `refactor/simplify-api-handlers`  |
+| `test`     | Adding or updating tests | `test/add-utils-unit-tests`       |
+| `chore`    | Maintenance tasks        | `chore/update-dependencies`       |
+
+**Guidelines:**
+
+- Use lowercase letters and hyphens (no underscores or spaces)
+- Keep descriptions short but descriptive
+- Include issue number when applicable: `feature/123-add-login`
+
+```bash
+# Create and checkout a new feature branch
+git checkout -b feature/add-dark-mode
+
+# Create a fix branch with issue reference
+git checkout -b fix/456-resolve-login-error
+```
+
+### Commit Message Format
+
+We follow the **Conventional Commits** style for clear, readable commit history:
+
+```
+<type>: <description>
+
+[optional body]
+```
+
+**Commit types:**
+
+| Type       | Purpose                     |
+| ---------- | --------------------------- |
+| `feat`     | New feature                 |
+| `fix`      | Bug fix                     |
+| `docs`     | Documentation only          |
+| `style`    | Formatting (no code change) |
+| `refactor` | Code restructuring          |
+| `test`     | Adding or updating tests    |
+| `chore`    | Maintenance tasks           |
+
+**Guidelines:**
+
+- Use **imperative mood** ("Add feature" not "Added feature")
+- Keep first line under **72 characters**
+- Capitalize the first letter after the type prefix
+- No period at the end of the subject line
+- Add a blank line before the body for detailed explanations
+
+**Examples:**
+
+```bash
+# Simple commit
+git commit -m "feat: Add user authentication flow"
+
+# Commit with body for more context
+git commit -m "fix: Resolve memory leak in WebSocket handler
+
+The connection cleanup was not being called when clients
+disconnected unexpectedly. Added proper cleanup in the
+error handler to prevent memory accumulation."
+
+# Documentation update
+git commit -m "docs: Update API documentation"
+
+# Refactoring
+git commit -m "refactor: Simplify state management logic"
+```

+
+## Code Style Guidelines
+
+Automaker uses automated tooling to enforce code style. Run `npm run format` to format code and `npm run lint` to check for issues. Pre-commit hooks automatically format staged files before committing.
+
+---
+
+## Testing Requirements
+
+Testing helps prevent regressions. Automaker uses **Playwright** for end-to-end testing and **Vitest** for unit tests.
+
+### Running Tests
+
+Use these commands to run tests locally:
+
+| Command                        | Description                           |
+| ------------------------------ | ------------------------------------- |
+| `npm run test`                 | Run E2E tests (Playwright)            |
+| `npm run test:server`          | Run server unit tests (Vitest)        |
+| `npm run test:packages`        | Run shared package tests              |
+| `npm run test:all`             | Run all tests                         |
+| `npm run test:server:coverage` | Run server tests with coverage report |
+
+**Before submitting a PR**, always run the full test suite:
+
+```bash
+npm run test:all
+```
+
+### Test Frameworks
+
+#### End-to-End Tests (Playwright)
+
+E2E tests verify the entire application works correctly from a user's perspective.
+
+- **Framework:** [Playwright](https://playwright.dev/)
+- **Location:** `e2e/` directory
+- **Test ports:** UI on port 3007, Server on port 3008
+
+**Running E2E tests:**
+
+```bash
+# Run all E2E tests
+npm run test
+
+# Run with headed browser (useful for debugging)
+npx playwright test --headed
+
+# Run a specific test file
+npm test --workspace=@automaker/ui -- tests/example.spec.ts
+```
+
+**E2E Test Guidelines:**
+
+- Write tests from a user's perspective
+- Use descriptive test names that explain the scenario
+- Clean up test data after each test
+- Use appropriate timeouts for async operations
+- Prefer `locator` over direct selectors for resilience
+
+#### Unit Tests (Vitest)
+
+Unit tests verify individual functions and modules work correctly in isolation.
+
+- **Framework:** [Vitest](https://vitest.dev/)
+- **Location:** In the `tests/` directory within each package (e.g., `apps/server/tests/`)
+
+**Running unit tests:**
+
+```bash
+# Run all server unit tests
+npm run test:server
+
+# Run with coverage report
+npm run test:server:coverage
+
+# Run package tests
+npm run test:packages
+
+# Run in watch mode during development
+npx vitest --watch
+```
+
+**Unit Test Guidelines:**
+
+- Keep tests small and focused on one behavior
+- Use descriptive test names: `it('should return null when user is not found')`
+- Follow the AAA pattern: Arrange, Act, Assert
+- Mock external dependencies to isolate the unit under test
+- Aim for meaningful coverage, not just line coverage
+
+### Writing Tests
+
+#### When to Write Tests
+
+- **New features:** All new features should include tests
+- **Bug fixes:** Add a test that reproduces the bug before fixing
+- **Refactoring:** Ensure existing tests pass after refactoring
+- **Public APIs:** All public APIs must have test coverage
+
+### CI/CD Pipeline
+
+Automaker uses **GitHub Actions** for continuous integration. Every pull request triggers automated checks.
+
+#### CI Checks
+
+The following checks must pass before your PR can be merged:
+
+| Check             | Description                                   |
+| ----------------- | --------------------------------------------- |
+| **Format**        | Verifies code is formatted with Prettier      |
+| **Build**         | Ensures the project compiles without errors   |
+| **Package Tests** | Runs tests for shared `@automaker/*` packages |
+| **Server Tests**  | Runs server unit tests with coverage          |
+
+#### CI Testing Environment
+
+For CI environments, Automaker supports a mock agent mode:
+
+```bash
+# Enable mock agent mode for CI testing
+AUTOMAKER_MOCK_AGENT=true npm run test
+```
+
+This allows tests to run without requiring a real Claude API connection.
+
+#### Viewing CI Results
+
+1. Go to your PR on GitHub
+2. Scroll to the "Checks" section at the bottom
+3. Click on any failed check to see detailed logs
+4. Fix issues locally and push updates
+
+#### Common CI Failures
+
+| Issue               | Solution                                      |
+| ------------------- | --------------------------------------------- |
+| Format check failed | Run `npm run format` locally                  |
+| Build failed        | Run `npm run build` and fix TypeScript errors |
+| Tests failed        | Run `npm run test:all` locally to reproduce   |
+| Coverage decreased  | Add tests for new code paths                  |
+
+### Coverage Requirements
+
+While we don't enforce strict coverage percentages, we expect:
+
+- **New features:** Should include comprehensive tests
+- **Bug fixes:** Should include a regression test
+- **Critical paths:** Must have test coverage (authentication, data persistence, etc.)
+
+To view coverage reports locally:
+
+```bash
+npm run test:server:coverage
+```
+
+This generates an HTML report you can open in your browser to see which lines are covered.

+3. Leave the browser tab open for 5+ minutes without interaction
+4. Try to move a card
+
+### Expected Behavior
+
+The card should move to the new column.
+
+### Actual Behavior
+
+The UI shows "Connection lost" and the card doesn't move.
+
+### Logs
+
+[WebSocket] Connection closed: 1006
+```
+
+### Feature Requests
+
+We welcome ideas for improving Automaker! Here's how to submit a feature request:
+
+#### Before Requesting
+
+1. **Check existing issues** - Your idea may already be proposed or in development
+2. **Consider scope** - Think about whether the feature fits Automaker's mission as an autonomous AI development studio
+
+#### Feature Request Template
+
+A good feature request includes:
+
+- **Title:** A brief, descriptive title
+- **Problem Statement:** What problem does this feature solve?
+- **Proposed Solution:** How do you envision this working?
+- **Alternatives Considered:** What other approaches did you consider?
+- **Additional Context:** Mockups, examples, or references that help explain your idea
+
+**Example Feature Request:**
+
+```markdown
+## Feature: Dark Mode Support
+
+### Problem Statement
+
+Working late at night, the bright UI causes eye strain and doesn't match
+my system's dark theme preference.
+
+### Proposed Solution
+
+Add a theme toggle in the settings panel that allows switching between
+light and dark modes. Ideally, it should also detect system preference.
+
+### Alternatives Considered
+
+- Browser extension to force dark mode (doesn't work well with custom styling)
+- Custom CSS override (breaks with updates)
+
+### Additional Context
+
+Similar to how VS Code handles themes - a dropdown in settings with
+immediate preview.
+```
+
+### Security Issues
+
+**Important:** If you discover a security vulnerability, please do NOT open a public issue. Instead:
+
+1. Join our [Discord server](https://discord.gg/jjem7aEDKU) and send a direct message to the user `@webdevcody`
+2. Include detailed steps to reproduce
+3. Allow time for us to address the issue before public disclosure
+
+We take security seriously and appreciate responsible disclosure.

+
+For maximum security, run Automaker in an isolated Docker container that **cannot access your laptop's files**:
+
+```bash
+# 1. Set your API key (bash/Linux/Mac - creates UTF-8 file)

+npm run build:electron:linux   # Linux (AppImage + DEB, x64)
+
+# Output directory: apps/ui/release/
 ```
 
+#### Docker Deployment
+
+Docker provides the most secure way to run Automaker by isolating it from your host filesystem.
+
+```bash
+# Build and run with Docker Compose
+docker-compose up -d
+
+# Access UI at http://localhost:3007
+# API at http://localhost:3008
+
+# View logs
+docker-compose logs -f
+
+# Stop containers
+docker-compose down
+```
+
+##### Configuration
+
+Create a `.env` file in the project root if using API key authentication:
+
+```bash
+# Optional: Anthropic API key (not needed if using Claude CLI authentication)
+ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=sk-ant-...
+```
+
+**Note:** Most users authenticate via Claude CLI instead of API keys. See [Claude CLI Authentication](#claude-cli-authentication-optional) below.
+
+##### Working with Projects (Host Directory Access)
+
+By default, the container is isolated from your host filesystem. To work on projects from your host machine, create a `docker-compose.override.yml` file (gitignored):
+
+```yaml
+services:
+  server:
+    volumes:
+      # Mount your project directories
+      - /path/to/your/project:/projects/your-project
+```
+
+##### Claude CLI Authentication (Optional)
+
+To use Claude Code CLI authentication instead of an API key, mount your Claude CLI config directory:
+
+```yaml
+services:
+  server:
+    volumes:
+      # Linux/macOS
+      - ~/.claude:/home/automaker/.claude
+      # Windows
+      - C:/Users/YourName/.claude:/home/automaker/.claude
+```
+
+**Note:** The Claude CLI config must be writable (do not use `:ro` flag) as the CLI writes debug files.
+
+##### GitHub CLI Authentication (For Git Push/PR Operations)
+
+To enable git push and GitHub CLI operations inside the container:
+
+```yaml
+services:
+  server:
+    volumes:
+      # Mount GitHub CLI config
+      # Linux/macOS
+      - ~/.config/gh:/home/automaker/.config/gh
+      # Windows
+      - 'C:/Users/YourName/AppData/Roaming/GitHub CLI:/home/automaker/.config/gh'
+
+      # Mount git config for user identity (name, email)
+      - ~/.gitconfig:/home/automaker/.gitconfig:ro
+    environment:
+      # GitHub token (required on Windows where tokens are in Credential Manager)
+      # Get your token with: gh auth token
+      - GH_TOKEN=${GH_TOKEN}
+```
+
+Then add `GH_TOKEN` to your `.env` file:
+
+```bash
+GH_TOKEN=gho_your_github_token_here
+```
+
+##### Complete docker-compose.override.yml Example
+
+```yaml
+services:
+  server:
+    volumes:
+      # Your projects
+      - /path/to/project1:/projects/project1
+      - /path/to/project2:/projects/project2
+
+      # Authentication configs
+      - ~/.claude:/home/automaker/.claude
+      - ~/.config/gh:/home/automaker/.config/gh
+      - ~/.gitconfig:/home/automaker/.gitconfig:ro
+    environment:
+      - GH_TOKEN=${GH_TOKEN}
+```
+
+##### Architecture Support
+
+The Docker image supports both AMD64 and ARM64 architectures. The GitHub CLI and Claude CLI are automatically downloaded for the correct architecture during build.
+
+### Testing
+
+#### End-to-End Tests (Playwright)
+
+```bash
+npm run test            # Headless E2E tests
+npm run test:headed     # Browser visible E2E tests
+```
+
+#### Unit Tests (Vitest)
+
+```bash
+npm run test:server              # Server unit tests
+npm run test:server:coverage     # Server tests with coverage
+npm run test:packages            # All shared package tests
+npm run test:all                 # Packages + server tests
+```
+
+#### Test Configuration
+
+- E2E tests run on ports 3007 (UI) and 3008 (server)

+- `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` - Your Anthropic API key for Claude Agent SDK (not needed if using Claude Code CLI)
 
-### Persistent Setup (Optional)
+#### Optional - Server
+
+- `PORT` - Server port (default: 3008)
+- `DATA_DIR` - Data storage directory (default: ./data)
+- `ENABLE_REQUEST_LOGGING` - HTTP request logging (default: true)
+
+#### Optional - Security
+
+- `AUTOMAKER_API_KEY` - Optional API authentication for the server

+
+### Authentication Setup
+
+#### Option 1: Claude Code CLI (Recommended)
+
+Install and authenticate the Claude Code CLI following the [official quickstart guide](https://code.claude.com/docs/en/quickstart).
+
+Once authenticated, Automaker will automatically detect and use your CLI credentials. No additional configuration needed!
+
+#### Option 2: Direct API Key
+
+If you prefer not to use the CLI, you can provide an Anthropic API key directly using one of these methods:
+
+##### 2a. Shell Configuration
 
 Add to your `~/.bashrc` or `~/.zshrc`:
 
 ```bash
-export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY="YOUR_API_KEY_HERE"
+export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY="sk-ant-..."
 ```
 
-Then restart your terminal or run `source ~/.bashrc`.
+Then restart your terminal or run `source ~/.bashrc` (or `source ~/.zshrc`).
+
+##### 2b. .env File
+
+Create a `.env` file in the project root (gitignored):
+
+```bash
+ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=sk-ant-...
+PORT=3008
+DATA_DIR=./data
+```
+
+##### 2c. In-App Storage
+
+The application can store your API key securely in the settings UI. The key is persisted in the `DATA_DIR` directory.

+Automaker is built as an npm workspace monorepo with two main applications and seven shared packages:
+
+```text
+automaker/
+├── apps/
+│   ├── ui/          # React + Vite + Electron frontend
+│   └── server/      # Express + WebSocket backend
+└── libs/            # Shared packages
+    ├── types/                  # Core TypeScript definitions
+    ├── utils/                  # Logging, errors, utilities
+    ├── prompts/                # AI prompt templates
+    ├── platform/               # Path management, security
+    ├── model-resolver/         # Claude model aliasing
+    ├── dependency-resolver/    # Feature dependency ordering
+    └── git-utils/              # Git operations & worktree management
+```
+
+### How It Works
+
+1. **Feature Definition** - Users create feature cards on the Kanban board with descriptions, images, and configuration
+2. **Git Worktree Creation** - When a feature starts, a git worktree is created for isolated development
+3. **Agent Execution** - Claude Agent SDK executes in the worktree with full file system and command access
+4. **Real-time Streaming** - Agent output streams via WebSocket to the frontend for live monitoring
+5. **Plan Approval** (optional) - For spec/full planning modes, agents generate plans that require user approval
+6. **Multi-Agent Tasks** (spec mode) - Each task in the spec gets a dedicated agent for focused implementation
+7. **Verification** - Features move to "Waiting Approval" where changes can be reviewed via git diff
+8. **Integration** - After approval, changes can be committed and PRs created from the worktree
+
+### Key Architectural Patterns
+
+- **Event-Driven Architecture** - All server operations emit events that stream to the frontend
+- **Provider Pattern** - Extensible AI provider system (currently Claude, designed for future providers)
+- **Service-Oriented Backend** - Modular services for agent management, features, terminals, settings
+- **State Management** - Zustand with persistence for frontend state across restarts
+- **File-Based Storage** - No database; features stored as JSON files in `.automaker/` directory
+
+### Security & Isolation
+
+- **Git Worktrees** - Each feature executes in an isolated git worktree, protecting your main branch
+- **Path Sandboxing** - Optional `ALLOWED_ROOT_DIRECTORY` restricts file access
+- **Docker Isolation** - Recommended deployment uses Docker with no host filesystem access
+- **Plan Approval** - Optional plan review before implementation prevents unwanted changes
+
+### Data Storage
+
+Automaker uses a file-based storage system (no database required):
+
+#### Per-Project Data
+
+Stored in `{projectPath}/.automaker/`:
+
+```text
+.automaker/
+├── features/              # Feature JSON files and images
+│   └── {featureId}/
+│       ├── feature.json   # Feature metadata
+│       ├── agent-output.md # AI agent output log
+│       └── images/        # Attached images
+├── context/               # Context files for AI agents
+├── settings.json          # Project-specific settings
+├── spec.md               # Project specification
+├── analysis.json         # Project structure analysis
+└── feature-suggestions.json # AI-generated suggestions
+```
+
+#### Global Data
+
+Stored in `DATA_DIR` (default `./data`):
+
+```text
+data/
+├── settings.json          # Global settings, profiles, shortcuts
+├── credentials.json       # API keys (encrypted)
+├── sessions-metadata.json # Chat session metadata
+└── agent-sessions/        # Conversation histories
+    └── {sessionId}.json
+```
