Agent rules for dbmole-mcp

Applies to every change in this repo, by any agent or human.

Code style

• 4-space indentation
• No semicolons where possible (semicolons: asNeeded)
• Single quotes where possible
• Functions as const fn = () => {} where possible
• No trailing commas before a closing }, ], ) (trailingCommas: none)
• Biome enforces all of the above — run npm run lint:fix before every commit
• Line width 100

TypeScript discipline

• No as unknown as X double-casts anywhere
• No @ts-ignore / @ts-expect-error / any in src/
• In tests prefer typed fakes (see test/unit/helpers.ts); a single as cast is a last resort, only when there is genuinely no typed way
• Types must line up by construction — if they don't, fix the design, not the cast

Testing

• TDD: write the failing test first, watch it fail, implement, watch it pass
• Full coverage: unit tests (mocked IO) + integration tests via testcontainers
• Coverage thresholds ≥90% lines/functions on the unit project — never lower them
• npm run test:unit (fast), npm run test:int (needs Docker)

Commits

• Conventional Commits: <type>(<scope>): <imperative summary>
• Subject ≤50 chars (hard cap 72), no trailing period
• Body only when the why is not obvious from the diff; wrap at 72
• NO AI attribution: no Co-Authored-By: Claude ..., no "Generated with ..."
• No emoji

Project constraints

• stdout is the MCP protocol channel — diagnostics go to console.error ONLY, never console.log
• ESM with NodeNext resolution: relative imports need the .js extension
• MCP SDK v1 (@modelcontextprotocol/sdk): registerTool takes a ZodRawShape (plain object of zod fields), NOT z.object(); subpath imports (server/mcp.js, server/stdio.js, client/index.js, inMemory.js, types.js)
• zod 3 (import * as z from 'zod')
