# GitTally — Agent Instructions
This file is read by Claude Code (`CLAUDE.md`) and other AI coding agents (`AGENTS.md → CLAUDE.md`).
## Build and Test Commands
```bash
./gradlew build # compile + ktlintCheck + test
./gradlew ktlintFormat # auto-format before committing
./gradlew test # run all tests (can be slow, prefer single test)
./gradlew test --tests "de.hoennig.gittally.ApplicationContextTest" # example for running a single test class
```
Run the JAR directly:
```bash
java -jar build/libs/gittally-0.1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar --help
java -jar build/libs/gittally-0.1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar init
```
`ktlintFormat` must be run before `build` passes — the formatter is enforced as part of the `check` lifecycle.
## Architecture
GitTally is a lightweight, declarative CI/CD build system.
It is a dual-mode application: **CLI** (interactive, status, config) and **Server** (HTTP, persistent).
### Entry Point and CLI Wiring
Spring Boot starts via `GitTallyApplication`. A separate `CliRunner` component (in the same file) implements both `CommandLineRunner` (runs picocli) and `ExitCodeGenerator` (returns the exit code). `exitProcess` is called only from `main()` via `SpringApplication.exit()`**never** inside `run()`. This keeps the Spring context alive during tests.
Picocli commands are Spring `@Component` beans. The root command (`GitTallyCommand`) declares subcommands as class references in `@Command(subcommands = [...])`. Picocli resolves them from the Spring context via the auto-configured `IFactory` bean.
```
GitTallyApplication ← @SpringBootApplication
CliRunner ← CommandLineRunner + ExitCodeGenerator
GitTallyCommand ← root @Command, delegates to subcommands
commands/
InitCommand ← "init"
ServerCommand ← "server"
StatusCommand ← "status [--history]"
BuildCommand ← "build [<branch>]"
RetryCommand ← "retry"
ConfigPrintCommand ← "config:print [--full]"
```
`status`, `build`, and `retry` implement `Callable<Int>` for their exit codes (0 success, 1 build failure, 2 usage/config errors).
`build` and `retry` run builds through the async `BuildExecutor` but block until completion via `ConsoleBuildRunner`, which streams the live log to stdout and waits for the artifact persist before the JVM exits.
Branch arguments resolve legacy-style name fragments (`BranchNameResolution`); the CLI reuses `UiFormats` so console and web UI display the same formats.
The web application type is set to `none` in `application.yml`, so plain CLI runs never start a web server. The `server` subcommand launches a **second** `SpringApplication` with `WebApplicationType.SERVLET` and the `server` profile, then blocks until shutdown. `application-server.yml` switches the web type (`spring.main.*` properties beat programmatic builder settings), `CliRunner` is `@Profile("!server")` so the second context does not run picocli again, and the watcher poll loop starts only in the `server` profile (`ServerWatcherLifecycle`). The JSON API, artifact serving, and the web UI live in the `server` package; mutating endpoints are guarded by a generated control token under `.git/gittally/control-token`.
### Web UI
The UI is server-rendered Thymeleaf (`UiController`, templates under `src/main/resources/templates/`) plus one hand-written JavaScript file (`static/gittally.js`) — no SPA framework, no frontend build pipeline. Pages render the full state server-side; the script then polls the JSON API and re-renders table bodies from data. Every fetch has a timeout and failures flip an explicit error badge — never re-fetch and diff whole HTML pages, and never leave a spinner without an error path (the legacy defect). Polling pauses while the tab is hidden. `UiFormats`/`gittally.js` must produce the same display formats (timestamps, durations).
### Configuration System
GitTally is configured by two YAML files, deep-merged by `ConfigLoader` (later wins):
1. `.gittally.yml` at the repo root — committed, shared team settings.
2. `.git/gittally/.gittally.yml` — not committed; machine-specific overrides and secrets (`git.account`, `git.token`).
After merging, `branches.default` is merged into every other named branch entry as its fallback, then the result is bound to the `GitTallyConfig` data classes (`config/GitTallyConfig.kt`), which define the schema and all defaults.
Three places must stay in sync when config keys change: the `GitTallyConfig` data classes, the commented templates generated by `InitCommand`, and the reference in `docs/configuration.md`.
### Git Access
`GitService` shells out to the `git` CLI via `GitCommandRunner` (a thin `ProcessBuilder` wrapper; no JGit). Commands that need repo information take it as a constructor dependency so tests can mock it. HTTPS fetches authenticate via a temporary, secret-free `GIT_ASKPASS` script (`GitAskPass`) with credentials from config passed through environment variables.
### Build Execution
`BuildExecutor` runs builds asynchronously: up to `builds.maxConcurrent` branches concurrently (default 1), but never more than one build per branch at a time. Each branch builds in its own reusable git worktree at `.git/gittally/worktrees/<branchKey>` (`BranchWorkspaces`), checked out detached at the requested commit — the primary checkout is never used for builds. Status transitions are persisted via `BuildResultRepository` (JSON file under `.git/gittally/`), published to Gitea non-fatally, and emitted as `BuildStatusChangedEvent`s. Cancellation addresses a build by artifact key and terminates the whole process tree. Future code (watcher, server, UI) must not assume a single running build.
The runtime is selected per branch behind the `BuildRunner` interface: `DispatchingBuildRunner` (`@Primary`) routes to native `ProcessBuildRunner` (the default) or to `DockerBuildRunner` when `branches.<name>.docker.enabled`. The Docker runner shells out to the `docker` CLI (no SDK): it (re)builds the configured image when the Dockerfile inputs changed (tracked via the `org.gittally.build-inputs-sha256` image label), maintains a per-repo Gradle cache volume, mounts the worktree and the Docker socket into a labelled (`org.hoennig.gittally`) `--rm --init` container, and repairs workspace ownership in-container after each command. The returned `Process` is the attached `docker run` client, so log streaming and termination work exactly like native builds.
### Watcher
`Watcher` replaces the legacy blocking main loop with a non-blocking fixed-delay poll cycle: fetch origin, enqueue due branches (changed local, recent new origin, due auto-build slots) via `BuildExecutor`, then prune results, artifacts, and stale worktrees. Nothing is scheduled until `Watcher.start()` is called explicitly (server/watch mode) — CLI commands and tests never start the loop. "Already built" is tracked via the result repository, not by moving local branch refs. Auto-build slot state lives in `.git/gittally/auto-builds.json`; watcher health is exposed via `Watcher.state()`.
### System Metrics
`SystemMetricsCollector` samples CPU (`/proc/stat` deltas), RAM (`/proc/meminfo`), disk, and repository size every 60s, but only after `ServerMetricsLifecycle` (server profile) calls `start()` — like the watcher, nothing is scheduled in CLI runs or tests. Min/max/avg aggregation state persists as JSON in the artifact root (`ArtifactStore.rootDir()`), so restarts continue the series. Unavailable sources (e.g. no `/proc` outside Linux) yield null metrics served as HTTP 200 by `GET /api/system` — the `/system` page shows `n/a`, never an error.
### Package Structure
All production code lives under `de.hoennig.gittally`, with sub-packages `commands` (picocli subcommands), `config` (YAML config loading and schema), `git` (git CLI access), `gitea` (Gitea commit-status API client), `build` (build execution, results, workspaces), `artifacts` (filesystem artifact store), `watcher` (branch polling, auto-builds, startup recovery), `metrics` (system resource sampling and aggregation), and `server` (JSON API controllers, Thymeleaf UI, artifact serving, control token, watcher and metrics lifecycles). Tests mirror this structure under `src/test/kotlin`.
## Testing Conventions
Tests use **Kotest `FunSpec`** style. `SpringExtension` is registered globally in `io.kotest.provided.ProjectConfig` — do not add it per-spec.
```kotlin
class MyTest : FunSpec() {
init {
test("description") { ... }
beforeEach { ... }
}
}
```
Use `shouldBe`, `shouldNotBe`, `shouldThrow` etc. from `io.kotest.matchers`.
### Mocking in Spring Slice Tests
Use `@MockkBean` from `springmockk` to inject MockK mocks into the Spring context:
```kotlin
@WebMvcTest(SomeController::class)
class SomeControllerTest : FunSpec() {
@MockkBean
lateinit var someService: SomeService
init {
beforeEach { clearMocks(someService) }
// full MockK syntax: every { } / verify { }
}
}
```
Alternatively, register mocks via `@TestConfiguration` without the springmockk dependency:
```kotlin
@WebMvcTest(SomeController::class)
@Import(SomeControllerTest.Mocks::class)
class SomeControllerTest : FunSpec() {
@TestConfiguration
class Mocks {
@Bean fun someService(): SomeService = mockk()
}
@Autowired lateinit var someService: SomeService
init {
beforeEach { clearMocks(someService) }
}
}
```
Pure unit tests (no Spring context) use MockK directly without any Spring wiring.
## File-Formatting
### Markdown
Write documentation in English in Markdown files.
In Markdown, use a single line per sentence.
Keep sentences short.
## Documentation
- `docs/GitTally-Konzept.md` — product concept and target architecture (in German): git-centric CI, builds in Docker, one instance per repository, status reported back to Gitea.
- `docs/configuration.md` — configuration reference; keep in sync with `GitTallyConfig` and the `init` templates.
- `docs/bootstrapping.md` — how `init` prepares a repository.
- `docs/plan/` — the step-by-step rewrite plan; `docs/plan/README.md` explains how to execute a step, `docs/plan/00-legacy-analysis.md` summarizes the legacy bash script.
## Key Architectural Decisions
All major decisions are in `docs/adrs/`. Run `adr-status` (after `source .envrc`) for a one-line summary of each. Decisions in force:
- **Test framework**: Kotest + MockK + WireMock + Testcontainers (ADR 0001)
- **Gradle**: 8.14.5 (ADR 0002)
- **Spring Boot**: 4.0.6 (ADR 0003)
