 ## Environment Variables
 
-When you run `deployment:prepare-local` or `deployment:prepare`, the CLI communicates with the Phoenix server, which generates environment variables and writes them to `.env.generated`.
+When you run `deployment:prepare-local` or `deployment:prepare`, the CLI communicates with the Phoenix server, which generates environment variables and writes them to `.env.generated`. `phoenix dev` does the same for its development deployment when it starts.
+
+### The generated env file
+
+A project has one generated env file. Phoenix keeps it in `.phoenix/`, as `.phoenix/.env.generated`, unless the project has a `.env.generated` in its root, which then is the one that counts.
+
+- `phoenix dev` reads and writes `.phoenix/.env.generated` in a project without a root `.env.generated`, and creates no file in the project root. In a project that has a root `.env.generated`, it reads and writes that file and `.phoenix/.env.generated` is not used.
+- The deployment and environment commands (`deployment:prepare`, `deployment:prepare-dev`, `deployment:prepare-local`, `deployment:build-envs` and the others with an `--outFile` option) write `.env.generated` in the project root unless `--outFile` or `OUT_FILE` names another file. Deploy pipelines read it there. Once one of them has written it, `phoenix dev` and `phoenix build` use it.
+- Everything that reads environment variables follows the same rule: the root `.env.generated` when it exists, otherwise `.phoenix/.env.generated`. The two files are never merged.
+- `phoenix clean` removes `.phoenix/` and with it `.phoenix/.env.generated`; the next `phoenix dev` prepares the development deployment again. A root `.env.generated` stays.
+
+This holds for a project on the application-spec pipeline. In a project on the legacy pipeline (see [Current and legacy project tooling](#current-and-legacy-project-tooling)), `phoenix dev` always reads and writes `.env.generated` in the project root.
 
 ### Data Flow
 
 ```
-spec/application.yaml → Server prepares environment → CLI writes .env.generated → Frontend/Webhooks read it
+spec/application.yaml → Server prepares environment → CLI writes the generated env file → Frontend/Webhooks read it
 ```
 
 ### Project Scripts
 
-When you run `phoenix sync` or `phoenix clean`, the CLI auto-generates standardized scripts in your `package.json`. These scripts are enforced — they cannot be overridden by custom scripts with the same name.

-Custom scripts you add to `package.json` are preserved during sync. Deprecated scripts (like `environment:create`, `deployment:register`) are automatically removed.
+`phoenix init` writes five scripts into `package.json`, each a shortcut for the CLI command of the same name:
+
+| Script   | Command          | Purpose                                       |
+| -------- | ---------------- | --------------------------------------------- |
+| `dev`    | `phoenix dev`    | Dev server with hot reload                    |
+| `build`  | `phoenix build`  | Production build                              |
+| `deploy` | `phoenix deploy` | Build and publish the project                 |
+| `check`  | `phoenix check`  | Run all checks (TypeScript, ESLint, Prettier) |
+| `fix`    | `phoenix fix`    | Auto-fix lint and formatting issues           |
+
+The scripts are yours: change, rename or delete them, and add your own. `phoenix sync` and `phoenix clean` leave the `scripts` section of `package.json` as it is, so they add no script, restore none you removed and remove none. Every CLI command also runs without a script, as `pnpm phoenix <command>`.
+
+A project may have other scripts than these five, such as `sync`, `test` or `verify:fix`; they are its own and stay as they are. All of this holds for a project on the application-spec pipeline, which `phoenix init` selects. In a project on the legacy pipeline (see [Current and legacy project tooling](#current-and-legacy-project-tooling)), `phoenix sync` and `phoenix clean` write their own set of scripts into `package.json` on every run, over scripts of the same name.

+Every other part of `package.json` keeps its order and formatting. `phoenix deps` installs nothing: it lists each change and names `pnpm install` as the next step, or says that nothing needed to change. Running it again changes nothing. It reads the spec to learn whether the project uses Clerk, so it stops with the spec's errors when the spec does not parse.
+
+This holds for a project on the application-spec pipeline. In a project on the legacy pipeline (see [Current and legacy project tooling](#current-and-legacy-project-tooling)), `phoenix deps` changes nothing and says that `phoenix sync` manages the dependencies.

+### `phoenix variants`
+
+Show several options over the configurator and wait for your pick. It is built for coding agents: when a decision is a matter of taste, such as the edge of a table top, how glossy a finish is or where a control sits, the agent writes one file per option, you choose in the browser, and the command hands your answer back to the agent.
+
+```bash
+phoenix variants .phoenix/variants/table-edge --title 'Which edge suits the table?' --description 'Only the edge of the top differs.'
+```
+
+Every `<id>.variant.js` script or `<id>.html` page in the folder is one option, shown in file-name order. Each script edits frontend project files on top of the same captured baseline. Original is always the first choice and restores that baseline. Switching options removes the previous option's edits and applies the selected script; the editor dialog has any number of choices on the left and your already loaded configurator on the right.
+
+```js
+// .phoenix/variants/brand/blue.variant.js
+export const title = 'Blue brand'
+export const description = 'A blue primary colour with the current layout.'
+
+export default ({ read, write, remove }) => {
+  const file = 'src/handlers/theme.ts'
+  write(file, read(file).replace("main: '#E93335'", "main: '#2364aa'"))
+}
+```
+
+`read(path)` always reads the baseline. `write(path, contents)` replaces or creates a file; `remove(path)` deletes it. Scripts run in the browser and collect edits; Phoenix validates and writes the batch locally. Supported files are YAML under `spec/` outside `spec/admin/`, and TypeScript under `src/components`, `transformers`, `handlers`, `elements` and `_`-prefixed shared folders. Expressions, actions and invariants also run on the server, so a script cannot edit them.
+
+For standalone UI or branding proposals, write self-contained HTML files. Each page renders in its own iframe when selected; its `<title>` names the option and `<meta name="description" content="...">` describes it. HTML and scripts may share a set if their file names give distinct option ids.
+
+```html
+<!-- .phoenix/variants/brand/blue.html -->
+<!doctype html>
+<title>Blue studio</title>
+<meta name="description" content="A calm blue identity with generous spacing." />
+<style>
+  body {
+    margin: 0;
+    padding: 40px;
+    background: #f0f5fa;
+    color: #163b66;
+    font-family: sans-serif;
+  }
+</style>
+<h1>Made for your everyday.</h1>
+<button>Design your table</button>
+```
+
+Scripts run once per selection. The completed file batch calls the existing rebuild queue directly, without a separate file-change event stream or a watcher that reapplies the option.
+
+Use script options for controls, layout, brand, lights, visual effects, materials, positions, components, elements and transformers. Changes to the model, schemas, data or deployment settings are rejected before any files are written. Environment files, webhooks, their shared implementation dependencies, dependencies and uploaded assets cannot be overridden. Files connected through symbolic links are also excluded, so restoring the baseline preserves the original files. No server preparation or webhook rebuild runs for a variant transaction.
+
+Picking a script keeps its exact implementation in the project. Picking an HTML page returns the selected proposal for the agent to implement; the page itself changes no project source files. Choosing Original keeps the captured baseline. Users finish by confirming Original or another option. Escape stays available to the configurator, and clicking the backdrop leaves the comparison open. The agent can use `--close` to restore the baseline source files without giving an answer. Phoenix records recovery information on disk and restores interrupted previews at the next `phoenix dev` start. It never overwrites a file edited outside the preview: switching options over such an edit is refused, and when the comparison ends, or is restored at the next start, that file is left as it is with a warning in the dev log while the others are restored. Other source changes made while a comparison is open are rebuilt once it ends.

+
+Known limits:
+
+- Variant transactions start rebuilding immediately, bypassing the normal file-watcher debounce. Hot reload still needs to parse and apply the updated implementation. There is no wait for UI or scene loading to settle; allow a visible transition to finish before judging or choosing.
+- Only one option is displayed at a time; simultaneous comparison is not supported.
+- For script options and Original, the dialog moves the existing configurator into the preview and returns it on close, preserving the loaded scene, camera and UI state. Opening the dialog starts no second application or initial loading screen. Configuration interactions still change the current configuration; restoring source files does not undo them.
+- Custom scripts are trusted project code. Their file API stages edits; scripts must not make network requests or other side effects.
+- Binary assets, CSS files, locale catalog changes, dependency changes and edits requiring a full application restart are unsupported.
+- Storybook `story-dev` has no variant previews. A project on the legacy pipeline has no variant previews; the command says so and exits.
+
+Generated projects carry the `phoenix-variants` agent skill, which tells coding agents when to offer options, how to write each kind and what to do with your answer.

+
+To keep the conversation that led to a build, place a reviewed UTF-8 transcript in `conversation.log` at the project root before deploying. Deploy automatically includes it in the private source archive. Download the build's sources from Studio to read it; access is the same as for the rest of that build's sources. The build extractor skips the log, so it is not an application build input or a public asset. Missing logs produce a warning and deployment continues. Directories, links and special files at that path are rejected.
+
+The Phoenix agent skill explains how to prepare the transcript: prefer a native session export; otherwise mark a reconstruction as incomplete. Preserve available user/assistant messages and tool calls, cap individual tool results at 16 KiB with explicit truncation markers, and reference images rather than embedding them. Include the agent, export time, source and known omissions. Review and redact credentials or unrelated sensitive content before approving upload. The CLI uploads the file as supplied; it does not collect agent history, redact content, check freshness or verify completeness. Remove the file from the project root to deploy without it. The log counts toward the source archive's existing size limits; there is no separate conversation upload or viewer.

A project that runs Prettier directly, as `prettier --check .` or from an editor, can add its own `.prettierignore`. To commit it, add a `!.prettierignore` line after the Phoenix block of `.gitignore`, because that block lists the file. The legacy pipeline writes `.prettierignore` on every sync.

+With the application-spec pipeline, the project's TypeScript settings are in `.phoenix/tsconfig.json`, which sync rewrites with the rest of `.phoenix/`. The root `tsconfig.json` is the one editors and tools find: sync writes it only when the project has none, as a single line that extends the generated settings, and it is yours to commit and to add to:
+
+```json
+{ "extends": "./.phoenix/tsconfig.json" }
+```
+
+The only root `tsconfig.json` sync replaces is the full file earlier SDK versions generated there, recognised by its settings; any other stays as it is. `phoenix dev`, `phoenix build` and the webhook bundle do not resolve `paths` aliases, so an alias added to the root file passes `phoenix check` and fails the build. `phoenix check` type-checks with the root `tsconfig.json`, or with `.phoenix/tsconfig.json` when the project has none. The legacy pipeline writes the full `tsconfig.json` on every sync.

 ### Agent Guidance
 
-Coding agents (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor) read `AGENTS.md` and the Phoenix agent skills. `AGENTS.md` is written once with the build commands, the do-not-edit list and a pointer to the skills; after that it is yours. The `phoenix`, `phoenix-cli`, `phoenix-feedback` and `phoenix-review` skills carry the SDK conventions, CLI tooling and review checklist, and the `phoenix-create-configurator` skill walks the agent from your product documents and assets to a reviewed configurator in five stages. Phoenix keeps them in step with the installed SDK, including the reference files inside a skill folder. During the internal beta, a project created from a canary build of the SDK gets one more section in the `phoenix` skill: once per conversation the agent checks for a newer canary and, after telling you, updates the project's SDK and runs `phoenix sync`. Other skill folders are never touched.
+Coding agents (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor) read the Phoenix agent skills. An `AGENTS.md` is yours to add for your own instructions; sync does not write one. The `phoenix`, `phoenix-cli`, `phoenix-feedback` and `phoenix-review` skills carry the SDK conventions, CLI tooling and review checklist, and the `phoenix-create-configurator` skill walks the agent from your product documents and assets to a reviewed configurator in five stages. The `phoenix-variants` skill has the agent show you several options over the dev preview when a decision is a matter of taste, and build the one you pick. Phoenix keeps them in step with the installed SDK, including the reference files inside a skill folder. During the internal beta, a project created from a canary build of the SDK gets one more section in the `phoenix` skill: once per conversation the agent checks for a newer canary and, after telling you, updates the project's SDK and runs `phoenix sync`. Other skill folders are never touched.
 
 Projects created by earlier SDK versions had this guidance in `CLAUDE.md`, `.cursor/rules/phoenix.mdc` and `commands/review.md`. Sync removes the SDK block from the first two, keeps your own text around it, deletes a file that held nothing else, and deletes the review commands; use the `phoenix-review` skill instead of `/review`.
 
 ### Markers for Partial Auto-Generation
 
-`.gitignore` preserves custom entries between markers:
+`.gitignore` holds the Phoenix entries between two marker lines. Sync rewrites that block and keeps everything outside it:
 
 ```gitignore
-# phoenix-start
+# ===== BEGIN PHOENIX AUTO-GENERATED =====
 # ... Phoenix-managed ignores ...
-# phoenix-end
+# ===== END PHOENIX AUTO-GENERATED =====
 
-# Your custom ignores below (preserved)
+# Your custom ignores (preserved)
 my-custom-folder/
 ```
 
+With the application-spec pipeline (see [Current and legacy project tooling](?path=/docs/phoenix-phoenix-cli--docs#current-and-legacy-project-tooling)), sync writes `.gitignore` only when the project is inside a git repository: the project folder or one of its parent folders holds a `.git` entry. Outside a repository it neither creates the file nor changes one that is already there. Run `git init` before the first sync, or sync again after it, to get the file. The legacy pipeline writes the file in every project.
