stack-baseline

Featured

The pinned default technology stack for SMB Product-Builder products. One source of truth so the architect, app-scaffolder, auth-engineer, and senior-dev never re-decide the stack per build — they build ON it. Covers framework, ORM/DB, auth, UI, payments/email/SMS, files, jobs, testing, hosting, and observability, with the chosen default + the one sanctioned alternative for each. Applied whenever a new product is scaffolded or a stack choice would otherwise be improvised. Re-deciding the stack every build is the biggest silent time sink; this kills it.

# Stack baseline — decide once, build on it Every SMB product builds on the SAME proven stack unless there's a concrete reason not to. Re-deciding framework/ORM/auth/host per build wastes the first hour of every project and fragments the codebase across products. **This is the default; deviate only with a written reason in ARCH.** ## The pinned stack | Layer | Default | Sanctioned alternative | Notes | |---|---|---|---| | **Framework** | Next.js (App Router, TS) | Remix | Server actions + RSC; one repo front+back | | **UI** | Tailwind + shadcn/ui | — | matches the site; design-advisor tokens map to it | | **Charts** (dashboard/analytics) | ECharts (shipped) | Recharts | polished specs generated at **build time via Flint → compiled to native ECharts**; Flint is dev-only, never a runtime dep. Contract: `references/dashboard-viz.md` | | **DB** | Postgres | — | the only DB; integer cents, tz-aware timestamps | | **ORM / migrations** | Drizzle | Prisma | typed schema + SQL migrations; migration-ready-schema applies | | **Auth** | Auth.js (NextAuth v5) | Clerk (fast path, per-MAU cost) | owned by **auth-engineer**; session + RBAC + multi-tenant | | **Payments** | Stripe (+ Connect) | — | owned by subscription-billing-engineer / integrations-engineer | | **Email** | Resend | Postmark | transactional; SPF/DKIM/DMARC via lifecycle-messaging | | **SMS** | Twilio (Messaging Service) | Telnyx | 10DLC; consent via lifecycle-messaging | | **File storage** | Cloudflare R2 / S3 | — | priv...

setup-stack

Selects and pins the technology stack — project type, backend (Go/PHP-Yii3/Node), frontend (Angular/Vue/Nuxt), UI kit (Material/Taiga), API style (GraphQL default), game engine (three.js/Pixi/Phaser), database, tests, CI, layout — and writes technical-preferences.md with exact versions from the stack reference. Run once at project start or when the stack changes.

stack

Choose the tech stack or target platform and make the project idiomatic for it. Covers classic code stacks and hosted/low-code platforms alike (own servers, Microsoft Power Platform/Dataverse, ServiceNow, Salesforce, Google, or whatever exists by then). Use when the target platform/stack must be decided, when generating docs/standards/<stack>.md, or when wiring stack-specific quality gates into CI and hooks. Requires live research. Never stack facts from model memory.
