Common Commands

Development

# Start all apps in dev mode
pnpm dev

# Start specific app
pnpm --filter builder dev
pnpm --filter worker dev

# Start with HTTPS
pnpm --filter builder https

Build & Lint

# Build all packages (respects turbo dependency graph)
pnpm build

# Lint (uses Biome via Ultracite)
pnpm lint
pnpm fix          # auto-fix

# Type checking
pnpm --filter builder check-types

Database

# Full setup (migrate + seed)
pnpm --filter database db:setup

# Migration only
pnpm --filter database db:migrate

# Create new migration
pnpm --filter database make:migration <name>

# Studio (GUI)
pnpm --filter database db:studio

Code Quality

# Check circular dependencies
pnpm check:circular

# Check unused exports (knip)
pnpm check:unused

Package Management

• Use pnpm add <pkg> --filter <workspace> to add dependencies to specific workspace
• Workspace packages use @chatbotx.io/* scope
• Cross-workspace imports: @chatbotx.io/database/client, @chatbotx.io/ui/button, etc.
• Package exports are defined in each package.json exports field

Adding a New Workspace Package

When creating a new package (e.g. integrations/<channel>/):

1. Create package.json with "name": "@chatbotx.io/<name>"
2. Add "@chatbotx.io/<name>": "workspace:*" to consumer package.json dependencies
3. Run CI=true pnpm install --no-frozen-lockfile to link the package
   • MUST use CI=true to avoid TTY confirmation prompt in non-interactive shells
   • Without this step, imports of the new package will fail with Cannot find module

Turbo Pipeline

Defined in turbo.json:

• build depends on ^build (builds dependencies first), outputs .next/**, dist/**
• dev, https, packages:dev are persistent (long-running)
• db:migrate, db:setup, db:reset, db:studio are non-cached

Environment

• Root .env file is loaded by apps via dotenv -e ../../.env
• Env validation uses @t3-oss/env-core + Zod in keys.ts files
• SKIP_ENV_CHECK=true to bypass validation during build

Git Hooks

• lefthook manages pre-commit hooks (see lefthook.yml)
