# CLAUDE.md - this project

Project instructions for Claude Code.

## Project

A Next.js (App Router) + Tailwind CSS v4 + Supabase + Stripe payments + Zod validation + Vitest project.

Stack: Next.js (App Router), Tailwind CSS v4, Supabase, Stripe payments, Zod validation, Vitest.

## Commands

- Dev server: `npm run dev`
- Production build (also type-checks): `npm run build`
- Lint: `npm run lint`
- New migration: `npx supabase migration new <name>`
- Generate TS types: `npx supabase gen types typescript --local > types/supabase.ts`
- Forward webhooks locally: `stripe listen --forward-to localhost:3000/api/webhooks/stripe`
- Unit tests: `npx vitest run`

## Project structure

- `app/` holds routes: `page.tsx`, `layout.tsx`, `loading.tsx`, `error.tsx`, `route.ts` for API handlers.
- Shared UI in `components/`, server-only helpers in `lib/` (mark them with `import "server-only"`).

## How to work in this repo

- Read the relevant files before editing. Follow the patterns already in the codebase over these generic rules.
- Make the smallest change that solves the task. Do not refactor or reformat unrelated code.
- Before saying a task is done, run the type-check, lint and tests listed under Commands and fix what you broke.
- If requirements are ambiguous, ask one clear question instead of guessing.
- Never commit secrets, API keys or `.env` files. Use env vars and keep `.env.example` up to date.
- Do not add a new dependency when the standard library or an existing dependency already covers it.
- Ask before adding, removing or upgrading any dependency.
- Ask before changing database schemas, auth, payments or CI configuration.
- Never delete files, drop data or run destructive commands (`rm -rf`, `git push --force`, `DROP TABLE`) without explicit approval.
- Keep each change under ~200 changed lines where possible; split larger work into steps.

## Next.js (App Router)

- Check the Next.js major version in `package.json` before using an API; follow the docs for that version.
- Components are Server Components by default. Add `"use client"` only to the smallest leaf component that needs state, effects, or browser APIs.
- Fetch data in Server Components or Server Actions, not in `useEffect`.
- In Next.js 15+, `params`, `searchParams`, `cookies()` and `headers()` are async: always `await` them.
- Mutations go through Server Actions (`"use server"`) or `route.ts` handlers. Validate every input on the server and re-check auth inside the action.
- After a mutation, call `revalidatePath()` or `revalidateTag()` instead of forcing the whole route dynamic.
- Use `next/image` for images, `next/font` for fonts and `next/link` for internal links.
- Export `metadata` or `generateMetadata` from every page for title, description and Open Graph tags.
- Only variables prefixed `NEXT_PUBLIC_` reach the browser. Never put secrets in them.
- In Next.js 16, `middleware.ts` is renamed `proxy.ts`. Use whichever file the project already has.

## Tailwind CSS v4

- Tailwind v4 is configured in CSS: `@import "tailwindcss";` plus `@theme { ... }` for design tokens. Do not create a `tailwind.config.js` unless the project already has one.
- Use theme tokens (colors, spacing) instead of arbitrary values like `w-[37px]`.
- Build responsive layouts mobile-first with `sm:`, `md:`, `lg:` prefixes.
- Extract repeated class lists into components, not `@apply` chains.
- Support dark mode with the `dark:` variant when the project uses it.

## Supabase

- Enable Row Level Security on every table and write explicit policies. No table ships without RLS.
- The anon/publishable key is public. The `service_role`/secret key bypasses RLS: use it only in trusted server code, never in the client.
- Change the schema with migration files in `supabase/migrations/`, not by clicking in the dashboard.
- On the server, verify the user with `supabase.auth.getUser()` (or `getClaims()`); do not trust `getSession()` alone for authorization.
- In SSR frameworks use `@supabase/ssr` (`createServerClient` / `createBrowserClient`), not the deprecated auth-helpers packages.
- Regenerate database types after each migration and type the client with them.

## Stripe payments

- Never trust prices or amounts from the client. Look up Price IDs and amounts on the server.
- Prefer Stripe Checkout or Payment Elements over custom card forms.
- Verify every webhook signature with the raw request body and the endpoint secret.
- Fulfil orders and update subscription status from webhooks, not from the success redirect.
- Make webhook handlers idempotent (store processed event IDs) and use idempotency keys on create calls.
- Use test-mode keys in development. The secret key is server-only.

## Zod validation

- Validate all untrusted input (request bodies, form data, env vars, third-party API responses) with a Zod schema at the boundary.
- Derive TypeScript types from schemas with `z.infer<typeof schema>`; do not hand-write duplicate types.
- Use `safeParse` where you need to return validation errors to the user.

## Vitest

- Co-locate tests next to the code as `*.test.ts(x)`.
- Test behaviour through public APIs; for components use Testing Library queries by role/label.
- Mock network calls at the boundary (e.g. MSW) rather than mocking internal modules.
- Every bug fix adds a test that fails without the fix.

## Avoid

- Do not add `"use client"` to layouts or pages just to silence an error; move the interactive part into a child component.
- Do not use the Pages Router (`pages/`) APIs such as `getServerSideProps` in an App Router project.
