This file provides guidance to Claude Code when working with code in this repository.

Project Overview

QBit CMS: QQQ QBit: a headless CMS (sites, pages, menus, blog, media, projects, photos and publishing) as standard QQQ tables, extracted from the kof22 website. Design: QRun-IO/qqq#1083 (decisions D1 to D17, all accepted). Implementation in progress.

Build Commands

./mvnw compile          # Compile (always use the wrapper: Maven 3.10 cannot read the parent POM)
./mvnw test             # Unit tests
./mvnw verify           # Unit tests + JaCoCo gate (70% instructions, 90% classes)

Architecture

Entry point: CmsQBitProducer implements QBitMetaDataProducer<CmsQBitConfig> in com.kingsrook.qbits.cms. The producer builds every table, possible-value source, app and widget itself (no package scanning); CmsFeature flags switch feature areas on and off. The schema is a prefix-parameterized Liquibase changelog the host includes and runs (src/main/resources/qbit-cms/db/changelog/); the qbit never runs DDL.

Packages:

• CmsQBitConfig, CmsFeature, CmsTables (logical names and table definitions), CmsRuntime, CmsSchemaCheck (startup check), CmsStartupMode.
• core/model: CORE entities. Their TABLE_NAME and possible-value source names are logical; the builder adds the prefix.
• metadata: CmsTableBuilder (tables, possible values, joins, child lists, associations, permission rules), CmsAppBuilder and CmsAreas (apps and homes).
• home: CmsHomeRenderer and CmsHtml (one renderer for every home; reads run with PermissionEnforcement.ENFORCE).
• security: CmsRole, CmsSecurity, CmsOpenReadsPermissionChecker.
• Schema: src/main/resources/qbit-cms/db/changelog/qbit-cms.changelog.yaml. Its changesets are append-only once released, and docs/ddl/postgres.sql is generated from it.

Naming (owner rule)

• Tables are lowercase snake_case prefixed with the full qbit name: cms_<name>. The QQQ table name and the backend (SQL) name are identical; possible-value sources take the table name.
• Permissions use the full qbit name: cms.<table>.<action> and cms.<action> (for example cms.cms_page.edit, cms.publish).
• Qbit data lives in standard, visible QQQ tables, secured by permissions and record security locks, never hidden.
• Processes run as table or record actions, never in the nav.

Code Style

• 3-space indentation, opening braces on the next line, return (x);.
• Javadoc flower-box comments (/***** with ** lines) on every class and method.
• Fluent setters (withX()).
• Wrapper types (Integer, Boolean) in config and entities.

Dependencies

• Java 21.
• Parent com.kingsrook:qbit-build-parent:2.0.0 (qqq 4.0.0). The default-active qqq-snapshot profile imports qqq-bom-pom:4.1.0-RC.4 ahead of it, as in qbit-quick-search (ADR-0007). Remove that activation when the parent moves to 4.1.
• Tests: JUnit 5, AssertJ.

Release

• CircleCI qqq-orb 0.6.8.
• develop publishes SNAPSHOTs.
• A release/* branch publishes RCs (the orb bumps the version).
• A v* tag publishes the release.
