+# Zacatl Microservice Framework
+
+A blazing fast, modular TypeScript microservice framework for Node.js, designed for rapid development of high-performance APIs and distributed systems. Zacatl enforces a clean, layered architecture, robust typing, and seamless collaboration between human and AI contributors.
+
+---
+
+## 1. How Humans and AI Agents Can Contribute
+
+- **Read the docs:** Always review `guidelines.yaml`, `context.yaml`, and `patterns.yaml` before making changes.
+- **Follow conventions:** Use dependency injection (`tsyringe`), maintain modularity, and respect the layered architecture.
+- **Testing:** All logic must be unit tested (`vitest`). Place tests in `test/unit/`, mirroring the `src/` structure.
+- **Documentation:** Update YAML docs with new patterns, features, or conventions. AI agents should parse YAML for context.
+- **Register everything:** All services, repositories, and handlers must be registered in the DI container.
+
+---

+  utils/                   # Utility functions (base64, hmac, etc.)
 ```
 
-## Usage
+- **Application:** Handles HTTP entry points, validation, and delegates to domain logic.
+- **Domain:** Pure business logic, models, and providers. No infrastructure dependencies.
+- **Infrastructure:** Persistence (MongoDB repositories), adapters, and external integrations.
+- **Platform:** Bootstraps the app, configures DI, and starts the server.
+
+---
+
+## 3. Core Architectural Concepts
+
+- **Layered (Hexagonal) Architecture:**
+  - Platform → Application → Domain → Infrastructure
+  - Strict separation of concerns; each layer has a single responsibility.
+- **Error Handling:** All errors extend `CustomError` (see `src/error/`).
+- **Validation:** Use `zod` schemas for all request/response validation.
+- **Service Registration:** Register handlers/services in the DI container.
+
+---
+
+## 4. Coding Standards for Humans and AI
+
+- **Naming:**
+  - Files/folders: lowercase, hyphens (e.g., `user-repository.ts`)
+  - Classes: PascalCase
+  - Functions/variables: camelCase, descriptive
+- **Code Style:**
+  - Clean, modular, and straightforward
+  - Use strong typing and TypeScript generics
+  - DRY principle: extract reusable logic
+  - Minimal comments; use tests to document behavior
+  - Validate all inputs and sanitize external data
+- **AI Patterns:**
+  - Replicate DI, modularity, and test structure
+  - Update YAML docs when generating new code
+
+---
+
+## 5. Dependency Injection (DI) Details
+
+- **DI Container:** All services, repositories, and handlers are registered using `tsyringe`.
+- **No direct instantiation:** Always resolve dependencies via DI.
+- **AI Registration:** When generating new components, ensure they are registered in the DI container.
+
+---
+
+## 6. Database Schema & Persistence
+
+- **MongoDB schemas:** Define all schemas in `src/micro-service/architecture/infrastructure/repositories/`.
+- **Repository pattern:** Extend `BaseRepository` for new collections.
+- **Schema best practices:**
+  - Favor embedding for related data
+  - Keep schemas minimal and property names concise
+  - Use references for large or independent data
+  - See `mongodb.yaml` for full guidelines
+
+---
+
+## 7. Error Management and Validation
+
+- **Error Classes:** All errors extend `CustomError` (see `src/error/`).
+- **Throw, don’t return:** Always throw errors for exceptional cases.
+- **Validation:** Use `zod` for all request/response validation. Place schemas in the Application layer.
+
+---
+
+## 8. Testing Philosophy and Setup
 
-### Basic Setup
+- **Framework:** Use `vitest` for all tests.
+- **Structure:** Place tests in `test/unit/`, mirroring the `src/` structure.
+- **Mocking:** Mock all external dependencies (DB, services) in tests.
+- **AI Testing:** When generating new logic, always add or update tests.

-### Creating Route Handlers
-
-```typescript
-import { z } from "zod";
-import { GetRouteHandler } from "@sentzunhat/zacatl";
-
-const UserSchema = z.object({
-  id: z.string(),
-  name: z.string(),
-  email: z.string().email(),
-});
-
-type User = z.infer<typeof UserSchema>;
-
-class GetUserHandler extends GetRouteHandler<unknown, User, unknown> {
-  constructor() {
-    super({
-      url: "/users/:id",
-      schema: {
-        response: {
-          200: UserSchema,
-        },
-      },
-    });
-  }
-
-  async handler(request, reply): Promise<User> {
-    const userId = request.params.id;
-    // Fetch user from database, etc.
-    return {
-      id: userId,
-      name: "John Doe",
-      email: "john@example.com",
-    };
-  }
-}
-```
-
-### Database Integration
-
-```typescript
-import { Schema } from "mongoose";
-import { singleton } from "tsyringe";
-import { BaseRepository } from "@sentzunhat/zacatl";
-
-interface Product {
-  name: string;
-  price: number;
-  description: string;
-}
-
-const productSchema = new Schema<Product>({
-  name: { type: String, required: true },
-  price: { type: Number, required: true },
-  description: { type: String, required: true },
-});
-
-@singleton()
-export class ProductRepository extends BaseRepository<Product> {
-  constructor() {
-    super({ name: "Product", schema: productSchema });
-  }
-
-  async findByName(name: string) {
-    return this.model.findOne({ name }).exec();
-  }
-}
-```
-
-## Architecture
-
-The framework is organized into four main layers:
-
-- **Application**: REST entry points (routes and hooks) and i18n configuration
-- **Domain**: Business logic providers and services
-- **Infrastructure**: Repositories and external dependencies
-- **Platform**: Service startup, database connections, and server configuration
-
-Each layer is designed to be extensible and testable, supporting clean code principles.
+---
 
-## Configuration
+## 10. Configuration and Environment Variables
 
-- **Localization**: Place locale JSON files in `src/locales/` (e.g., `en.json`)
-- **Environment Variables**:
+- **Localization:** Place locale JSON files in `src/locales/` (e.g., `en.json`)
+- **Environment Variables:**
   - `SERVICE_NAME` - Service name
   - `NODE_ENV` - Environment (development, production, test)
   - `CONNECTION_STRING` - Database connection string

+
+origin: mongodb_schema_design_guidelines.md
+source: MongoDB_schema_design_guidelines.pdf
+
+principles:
+  - favor_embedding:
+      rule: Embed related data within a single document when possible to improve performance by reducing the need for joins/queries.
+      rationale: Embedded documents ensure related data is retrieved together, enhancing read performance for one-to-few/one-to-many relationships.
+  - minimalism_and_simplicity:
+      rule: Design schemas with simplicity and minimalism. Use nested objects to reflect natural data hierarchies.
+      rationale: Minimal schemas are easier to understand, maintain, and scale.
+  - property_naming:
+      rule: Use single-word property names when possible; otherwise, limit to two words.
+      rationale: Short, concise property names reduce errors and improve readability.
+  - document_size_and_cardinality:
+      rule: Keep document size within MongoDB’s 16MB limit. Avoid embedding data that could grow unbounded (high-cardinality relationships).
+      rationale: Large documents degrade performance and complicate replication/backup. Use references for large/independent data.
+  - lifecycle_consistency:
+      rule: Embed data only if it shares a lifecycle with the parent document. Use references if embedded data is accessed/updated independently.
+      rationale: Aligning lifecycles ensures consistent, predictable schema behavior.
+
+flexibility:
+  - These guidelines are best practices and should be adapted to specific application requirements and data access patterns.
+  - The recommendation for concise property names is flexible, but clarity and consistency are critical.
+
+conclusion:
+  - Following these guidelines will help ensure MongoDB schemas are optimized for performance, maintainability, and scalability.
+  - Adapt as needed for your application’s needs.

+# Zacatl Project Onboarding & Usage
+
+Welcome to Zacatl! This project uses structured YAML documentation for all context, architecture, coding standards, and best practices.
+
+## Getting Started
+
+- **Project context, architecture, and component summaries:**
+  See [`context.yaml`](./context.yaml)
+- **Coding standards, naming conventions, and best practices:**
+  See [`guidelines.yaml`](./guidelines.yaml)
+- **Design and usage patterns:**
+  See [`patterns.yaml`](./patterns.yaml)
+- **MongoDB schema design guidelines:**
+  See [`mongodb.yaml`](./mongodb.yaml)
+
+## Setup
+
+1. Install dependencies:
+   ```zsh
+   npm install
+   ```
+2. Run tests:
+   ```zsh
+   npm test
+   ```
+3. Explore the codebase, starting from `src/`.
+
+## Contributing
+
+- Follow the guidelines in `guidelines.yaml` and `patterns.yaml`.
+- Update `context.yaml`, `guidelines.yaml`, `patterns.yaml`, or `mongodb.yaml` with any new patterns or conventions.
+- Place all tests in the `test/` directory, mirroring the `src/` structure.
+
+For any questions, refer to the YAML documentation or contact the maintainers.
