LeanSpec Development Skill

Unified guide for all LeanSpec development: coding, commands, publishing, CI/CD, and runner research.

Quick Navigation

Core Principles

1. Use pnpm — Never npm or yarn
2. DRY — Extract shared logic, avoid duplication
3. Test What Matters — Business logic and data integrity, not presentation
4. Leverage Turborepo — Smart caching (19s → 126ms builds)
5. i18n is MANDATORY — Every user-facing string needs both en AND zh-CN (see I18N.md)
6. Follow Rust Quality — All code must pass cargo clippy -- -D warnings

Commands

Daily Development

pnpm install              # Install dependencies
pnpm dev                  # Start web UI + Rust HTTP server
pnpm dev:watch            # Same + auto-rebuild Rust on changes
pnpm dev:web              # Start web UI only
pnpm dev:desktop          # Start desktop app
pnpm build                # Build all TS packages
pnpm build:rust           # Build Rust (debug)
pnpm build:rust:release   # Build Rust (release)
pnpm typecheck            # ← NEVER SKIP before marking work complete
pnpm test                 # Run all tests
pnpm test:watch           # Watch mode
pnpm test:coverage        # With coverage
pnpm test:rust            # Rust tests only
pnpm format               # Format all code
pnpm cli                  # Run LeanSpec CLI

Validation

pnpm pre-push             # Quick: typecheck + clippy
pnpm pre-release          # Full: build + typecheck + test + lint

⚠️ Always run pnpm typecheck before marking work complete.

Rust

pnpm build:rust           # Debug build
pnpm build:rust:release   # Release build
pnpm check:rust           # Quick check without building
pnpm lint:rust            # Clippy with warnings as errors
pnpm format:rust          # Format Rust code
pnpm format:rust:check    # Check Rust formatting

# Low-level
cargo build --manifest-path rust/Cargo.toml
node scripts/copy-rust-binaries.mjs --debug

Documentation

pnpm docs:dev             # Start docs dev server
pnpm docs:build           # Build docs site

Desktop

pnpm dev:desktop          # Start desktop app in dev mode
cd packages/desktop
pnpm bundle:linux         # Debian package
pnpm bundle:macos         # DMG
pnpm bundle:windows       # NSIS installer

Critical Rules

Rules enforced by hooks or CI:

1. Light/Dark Theme — ALL UI must support both themes
2. i18n — Update BOTH en and zh-CN → I18N.md ⚠️ commonly forgotten
3. Regression Tests — Bug fixes MUST include failing-then-passing tests
4. Rust Quality — Must pass cargo clippy -- -D warnings
5. Rust Params Structs — Functions with >7 args must use a params struct (enforced by clippy.toml)
6. Use shadcn/ui — No native HTML form elements
7. cursor-pointer — All clickable items must use cursor-pointer

See RULES.md for complete requirements.

Publishing & Releases

Production Release (Recommended)

# 1. Update version (root only)
npm version patch  # or minor/major

# 2. Sync all packages
pnpm sync-versions

# 3. Validate everything
pnpm pre-release

# 4. Commit and push with tags
git add .
git commit -m "chore: release vX.X.X"
git push --follow-tags

# 5. Create GitHub Release (triggers publish workflow)
gh release create vX.X.X --title "vX.X.X" --notes "Release notes here"

Development Release

# Publish dev version via GitHub Actions
gh workflow run publish.yml --field dev=true

# Dry run (validates without publishing)
gh workflow run publish.yml --field dev=true --field dry_run=true

# Install and test
npm install -g lean-spec@dev
lean-spec --version

Version Management

• Root package.json is the single source of truth for versions
• pnpm sync-versions propagates to all packages (including Rust crates)
• CI automatically validates version alignment
• Never manually edit package versions — use npm version + pnpm sync-versions

Distribution Architecture

LeanSpec uses optional dependencies for platform-specific Rust binaries:

⚠️ Platform packages MUST be published before main packages. The CI workflow handles this automatically.

See PUBLISHING.md and NPM-DISTRIBUTION.md for details.

Changelog

Update CHANGELOG.md following Keep a Changelog format and Semantic Versioning.

Discovering Changes

# Commits since last tag
git log $(git describe --tags --abbrev=0)..HEAD --oneline

# Files changed since last release
git diff $(git describe --tags --abbrev=0)..HEAD --stat

Entry Format

Only include shipped/implemented changes — not planned specs, drafts, or WIP.

Add under ## [Unreleased] using these categories: Added, Changed, Fixed, Deprecated, Removed, Security, Technical.

- **Feature Name** ([spec 123](https://web.lean-spec.dev/specs/123)) - Brief description
  - Sub-bullet with implementation details

Writing Style

1. Bold feature name followed by description
2. Link related specs when applicable
3. Present tense — "Adds support for..." not "Added"
4. Be specific — include command names, flag names, component names
5. Group related changes under single bullet with sub-bullets
6. Include breaking changes with Breaking: prefix

Creating a Release

1. Move entries from [Unreleased] to new version: ## [X.Y.Z] - YYYY-MM-DD
2. Add release link at bottom: [X.Y.Z]: https://github.com/codervisor/lean-spec/releases/tag/vX.Y.Z

CI/CD (GitHub Actions)

All workflow interactions use the gh CLI. Check status before triggering new runs; minimum 30s between polls.

Available Workflows

Quick Reference

# Check status
gh run list --limit 10
gh run list --workflow ci.yml --limit 5
gh run view <run-id>
gh run watch <run-id>

# Trigger
gh workflow run ci.yml
gh workflow run publish.yml --field dev=true

# Debug failures
gh run view <run-id> --log-failed
gh run rerun <run-id> --failed

# Artifacts
gh run download <run-id>
gh run download <run-id> --name ui-dist

See CI-WORKFLOWS.md, CI-COMMANDS.md, and CI-TROUBLESHOOTING.md for details.

Runner Research

Research AI agent runners to keep LeanSpec's runner registry current as the ecosystem evolves.

Workflow

1. Read current state: rust/leanspec-core/src/sessions/runner.rs (RunnerRegistry::builtins())
2. Read catalog: runners-catalog.md
3. Research via web_search: Config format changes, CLI changes, new env vars, new capabilities, deprecations, new runners
4. Compare & identify gaps: Cross-reference findings against registry
5. Report: Minor updates → update catalog directly; major changes → create a spec

Runner Tiers

1. Tier 1 (high priority): Claude Code, Copilot, Cursor, Windsurf, Codex, Gemini
2. Tier 2 (medium): Kiro, Amp, Aider, Goose, Continue, Roo Code
3. Tier 3 (monitor): Droid, Kimi, Qodo, Trae, Qwen Code, OpenHands, Crush, CodeBuddy, Kilo, Augment
