Identify the API domain and operation name from nearby operations.
Add or update the request function, hook, operation barrel, domain barrel, and domain query keys as needed.
Keep request functions private to hooks.
Put invalidation in mutation hooks, not components.
Update component imports to consume domain hooks only.

Expected Output

UI-facing barrels export hooks only.
Components do not import raw request functions or query keys.
Mutations invalidate every query whose server data becomes stale.
Required IDs use enabled or hook options to avoid invalid requests.

Verification

Search changed components for direct useQuery, useMutation, raw request, or queryKeys usage.
Run npm --workspace @capture-flag/client run build.

Client API Hook Rules

Rules for client API operations in apps/client/src/api.

Always

Group API code by domain and operation under apps/client/src/api.
Split every operation into a request function, a React Query hook, and an operation index.ts.
Keep request functions free of React imports.
Keep request functions typed with the response type they return.
Use shared request helpers from src/api/client.ts so private API calls share the /api/v1 base URL, JSON handling, API error handling, and credentials: "include" behavior.
Use useQuery or useInfiniteQuery in query hooks according to the API shape, and useMutation in mutation hooks.
Keep query keys stable in a domain-level queryKeys.ts when hooks or mutations share them.
Keep object-valued query-key inputs stable and serializable, such as applied filter DTOs.
Use enabled in query hooks when required IDs or inputs are unavailable.
Invalidate affected query keys inside mutation hooks.
Import other domain query keys inside mutation hooks when the mutation makes cross-domain server state stale.
Use explicit named exports in UI-facing barrels.

Never

Do not call raw request functions from components.
Do not expose request functions from operation or domain barrels used by UI.
Do not import domain queryKeys into components.
Do not manually synchronize server lists in components after mutations.
Do not mirror query data into Zustand or local state unless a concrete UI-only draft workflow requires it.
Do not create a central src/api/queryKeys.ts unless data is genuinely cross-domain.
Do not use fetch directly outside src/api/client.ts unless the request is intentionally outside the app API contract.

Layout

Request file: apps/client/src/api/<domain>/<operation>/<operation>.ts.
Hook file: apps/client/src/api/<domain>/<operation>/use<Operation>.ts.
Operation barrel: apps/client/src/api/<domain>/<operation>/index.ts.
Domain barrel: apps/client/src/api/<domain>/index.ts.
Query keys: apps/client/src/api/<domain>/queryKeys.ts.

Reference: `ai/rules/client-state-rules.md`

Client State Rules

Rules for state ownership in apps/client.

Always

Use React Query as the source of truth for server state.
Let mutation hooks own cache invalidation with queryClient.invalidateQueries.
Use local component state for short-lived UI state owned by one component.
Lift state only to the nearest common owner that explicitly consumes it.
Use React Router params or search params for linkable, reload-safe, navigation state.
Keep selection state as IDs, not duplicated entity objects.
Reconcile selected IDs against current query data in a colocated hook.
Use useRouteContext to derive selected organization, project, config, and environment from route params, search params, and React Query data.
Use search params for route-owned selection that should survive reloads or shared links, such as SDK key config/environment and audit-log project scope.
Use focused ID-selection hooks such as useCollectionSelection for page-local collection selection that does not need to be linkable.
Move repeated, context-independent client hooks to src/core/hooks/<hook>.ts and import them directly from that file.
Keep state reset rules near the state owner.
Keep permission gates derived from route-context roles and shared permission helpers; client permission gates are UX only.

Never

Do not manually patch copied server arrays in components unless optimistic UI is explicitly required.
Do not copy React Query data into Zustand or local state just to pass it to children.
Do not import query keys into components; invalidation belongs in API mutation hooks.
Do not use React Context for mutable state. Context is only for stable values that do not change during app lifetime.
Do not add Zustand unless state is truly global, cross-feature, or cross-route and other ownership options are insufficient.
Do not use Zustand as an event bus for mutation results.

Ownership Order

React Query hooks under src/api/<domain> for server/cache state.
React Router params or search params for route/navigation state.
useRouteContext for selected route resources derived from navigation state plus server data.
Nearest common page component plus focused hooks for page workflow state.
Local useState or React Hook Form state for component-only state.
src/core/hooks/<hook>.ts only for repeated hooks that are independent of page/domain context.
Small domain-specific Zustand store only for cross-route client state with no server backing.
React Context only for stable constants or immutable services.

Reference: `ai/architecture/client-app.md`

Client App Architecture

apps/client is a Vite React application for the Capture Flag platform UI.

Entry And Routing

src/main.tsx owns top-level providers.
src/router.tsx owns React Router route definitions.
Route modules are lazy-loaded through the local lazyRoute() helper and should expose named exports.
src/layouts contains route layout wrappers that render shared shells, navigation, headers, and nested <Outlet /> regions.
src/pages contains route-level screens. Multi-file route screens use folder modules with index.ts named exports; simple one-file screens may stay as direct page files.
src/components contains shared UI used by multiple pages or sections.
src/core contains context-independent client utilities and reusable hooks organized by category.
src/api contains client request functions, React Query hooks, operation barrels, domain barrels, and domain query keys.
src/routing contains route path and route context helpers shared by pages and layouts.
src/stories contains shared Storybook fixtures and API mocks, not component stories.
src/test contains shared Vitest and Testing Library helpers.
PlatformLayout owns the authenticated shell, navigation frame, sidebar/header state, logout flow, and nested route outlet.
Selected organization, project, config, and environment state is derived by route helpers such as useRouteContext, not stored in a mutable layout context.

Route Map

/: redirects to /organizations.
/login: GitHub login screen.
/account: authenticated user account details and display name editing.
/organizations and /organizations/:organizationId: organization selection and organization members.
/organizations/:organizationId/projects and /organizations/:organizationId/projects/:projectId: project selection and project members.
/organizations/:organizationId/projects/:projectId/environments: environments for the selected project.
/organizations/:organizationId/projects/:projectId/configs and /organizations/:organizationId/projects/:projectId/configs/:configId: configs and public Config JSON preview.
/organizations/:organizationId/projects/:projectId/configs/:configId/flags: feature flags and remote config values.
/organizations/:organizationId/projects/:projectId/configs/:configId/segments: reusable targeting segments.
/organizations/:organizationId/projects/:projectId/sdk-keys: SDK key lifecycle for project configs/environments, with selected config/environment in ?configId= and ?environmentId= when needed.
/organizations/:organizationId/audit-logs: organization/project audit log timeline, with selected project in ?projectId= when needed.
*: redirects to /.

Data Flow

React Query owns server state such as authenticated user, organizations, projects, configs, environments, SDK keys, members, and feature flags.
API operations live under src/api/<domain>/<operation>.
Request functions perform HTTP calls and contain no React imports.
Query and mutation hooks are the UI-facing API.
Query hooks may use useQuery or useInfiniteQuery according to the API shape.
Mutation hooks invalidate affected query keys.
Mutations that affect derived server state may invalidate query keys from multiple API domains inside the mutation hook.
API request and hook tests mock successful responses and API errors instead of reaching a real backend.
Route params, search params, and server state are combined by useRouteContext for selected resources and redirect-safe navigation paths.
Permission gates in the client are UX only; API guards and services remain authoritative.

UI Composition

Route components compose page sections and own screen-level flow.
Repeated panels, forms, controls, lists, and empty states move into named components.
React component files should stay at or below 400 lines by splitting real responsibilities into focused files.
Short, fixed navigation or action sets should be rendered explicitly instead of through artificial arrays.
Page-specific components stay colocated under the page folder until reused elsewhere.
Layout-specific components stay colocated under src/layouts/<LayoutName> until reused by another layout or page.
Shared primitives live under src/components and are imported directly through aliases such as @components/Button.
Member management uses shared components/members primitives with page-specific role options.
Feature flag and segment page internals stay colocated under their page folders until reused.
Storybook stories live in a stories/ child folder beside the source area they cover.
Route-level and cross-page grouping stories live in src/pages/stories.
Shared Storybook data and fetch mocks live in src/stories and are reused by stories and page tests.

Shared Core Utilities

Context-independent helpers and reusable client hooks live under src/core/<category>/<name>.ts.
Current core categories include date, json, strings, validation, and hooks.
Each core file exports one function or hook; import it from the direct file path such as src/core/date/toDate.
Do not add index.ts barrels under src/core; multiple helpers require multiple explicit imports.
Core tests live under src/core/<category>/__tests__/<name>.test.ts next to the category they cover.
Client tests live in __tests__/ child folders beside the source area they cover, mirroring Storybook stories/ folders.
Shared test setup and helpers live under src/test and provide Testing Library render helpers, React Query providers, and fetch response mocks.
Coverage is run with npm --workspace @capture-flag/client run test:coverage and should stay at 90% or higher for configured client targets.
Page, domain, API, or route-specific helpers stay colocated with their owning feature until they become context-independent reuse.

Client Test And Story Layout

API request and hook tests live in src/api/__tests__ and cover operation behavior through mocked fetch responses.
Shared component tests live in src/components/__tests__; member component tests live in src/components/members/__tests__.
Page tests live in src/pages/<PageName>/__tests__ when they cover one page folder.
Page subsection tests live in src/pages/<PageName>/<section>/__tests__ when they cover colocated page internals such as feature flags or segments.
Root-level client tests live in src/__tests__ only for source files owned directly by src, such as permissions.ts.
Shared component stories live in src/components/stories; member component stories live in src/components/members/stories.
Layout stories live in src/layouts/<LayoutName>/stories.
Page and page subsection stories live in the owning page folder's stories/ child folder.
Cross-page route or panel grouping stories live in src/pages/stories and use route parameters plus shared mock data to render realistic page states.
Do not place component stories in src/stories; that folder is reserved for shared Storybook data, routes, and API mocks.

Form Flow

React Hook Form owns field state and submission.
Zod schemas parse and validate form values.
API mutation hooks submit normalized payloads and refresh server state.

Why this is canonical:

Splits the raw request from the React Query mutation hook.
Keeps cache invalidation inside the mutation hook.
Exposes hooks through operation and domain barrels instead of exposing request functions to UI code.
Uses useInfiniteQuery for cursor-paginated APIs.
Keeps cross-domain cache invalidation inside mutation hooks when derived server state changes.

Canonical pattern from apps/client/src/api/projects/createProject.

Request Function

export function createProject({ name, organizationId }: CreateProjectInput) {
  return postJson<Project>(`/organizations/${organizationId}/projects`, { name });
}

The request function performs HTTP work only. It does not import React.

Mutation Hook

export function useCreateProject({ organizationId, onSuccess }: UseCreateProjectOptions) {
  const queryClient = useQueryClient();

  return useMutation({
    mutationFn: (name: string) => createProject({ name, organizationId }),
    onSuccess: (project) => {
      void queryClient.invalidateQueries({ queryKey: projectQueryKeys.list(organizationId) });
      onSuccess?.(project);
    },
  });
}

The mutation hook owns cache invalidation. Components consume the hook, not the request function or query keys.

Operation Barrel

export { useCreateProject } from "./useCreateProject";

Operation and domain barrels expose hooks to UI code.

Infinite Query Hook

export function useGetAuditLogs({ enabled = true, filters, organizationId }: UseGetAuditLogsInput) {
  return useInfiniteQuery({
    enabled: Boolean(enabled && organizationId),
    getNextPageParam: (lastPage) => lastPage.nextCursor,
    initialPageParam: null as string | null,
    queryFn: ({ pageParam }) =>
      getAuditLogs({
        filters: {
          ...filters,
          ...(pageParam ? { cursor: pageParam } : {}),
        },
        organizationId,
      }),
    queryKey: auditLogQueryKeys.list(organizationId, filters),
  });
}

Infinite query hooks still keep raw HTTP work in the request function and use serializable filter DTOs in query keys.

Cross-Domain Invalidation

onSuccess: (_value, variables) => {
  void queryClient.invalidateQueries({ queryKey: featureFlagQueryKeys.list(configId) });
  void queryClient.invalidateQueries({
    queryKey: featureFlagQueryKeys.activity(configId, variables.featureFlagId),
  });
  void queryClient.invalidateQueries({
    queryKey: configQueryKeys.preview(configId, variables.environmentId),
  });
  void queryClient.invalidateQueries({ queryKey: auditLogQueryKeys.all });
};

When a mutation changes derived server state, the mutation hook imports and invalidates every affected domain query key. Components still do not import query keys.
