- `@warlock.js/context` is a tiny wrapper on Node.js's `AsyncLocalStorage`. You extend the abstract `Context<TStore>` class to declare what your context stores, and you get a typed get/set/run API that propagates through every async call inside the scope.

-

- `buildStore` is the **only** abstract method. Everything else is provided by `Context<TStore>`.
45
-
46
- ## Usage modes
47
-
48
- ### `run()` — scoped execution
49
-
50
- ```ts
51
- await userContext.run(
52
- { userId: "123", role: "admin", tenantId: "acme" },
53
- async () => {
54
- // Context is available throughout this async scope and any awaited calls inside it.
55
- const userId = userContext.get("userId"); // "123"
56
- const role = userContext.get("role"); // "admin"
57
-
58
- await someAsyncOperation(); // context propagates through awaits
59
- },
60
- );
61
- ```
62
-
63
- Use `run()` when you have a clear scope boundary (a request handler, a job, a CLI command). The context is auto-cleaned when the callback returns.
64
-
65
- ### `enter()` — middleware-style, no callback
66
-
67
- ```ts
68
- function authMiddleware(req, res, next) {
69
- userContext.enter({
70
- userId: req.user.id,
71
- role: req.user.role,
72
- tenantId: req.headers["x-tenant-id"],
73
- });
74
-
75
- next(); // context lives for the rest of the request
76
- }
77
- ```
78
-
79
- Use `enter()` when the framework doesn't give you a callback to wrap (Express-style middleware). Under the hood it's `AsyncLocalStorage.enterWith(store)`.
80
-
81
- ### `update()` — merge into the current context
82
-
83
- ```ts
84
- userContext.update({ role: "admin" });
85
- // existing store: { userId, role, tenantId } → { userId, role: "admin", tenantId }
86
- ```
87
-
88
- If there's no current store, `update` creates one with the partial (cast to the full type). Use for incremental enrichment as the request flows through layers.
89
-
90
- `update()` (and `set()`, which calls it) silently drops `__proto__` / `constructor` / `prototype` keys instead of merging them — merging with `Object.assign` would otherwise let a caller-shaped payload (e.g. `userContext.update(req.body)`) pollute `Object.prototype` for the whole process, since the context store is shared. The rest of the payload still merges normally; this closes only the prototype-pollution vector, not general trust of merged input — validate before you merge caller-supplied data.
91
-
92
- ## Reading
93
-
94
- ```ts
95
- const userId = userContext.get("userId"); // TStore[K] | undefined
96
- const store = userContext.getStore(); // TStore | undefined
97
- const inside = userContext.hasContext(); // boolean
98
- ```
99
-
100
- `get` is the daily-use accessor. `getStore` returns the whole record. `hasContext` distinguishes "key absent" from "no context at all" (which matters for safety checks at the framework boundary).
101
-
102
- ## Writing within a context
103
-
104
- ```ts
105
- userContext.set("role", "admin"); // sugar for update({ role: "admin" })
106
- ```
107
-
108
- Only call `set` inside an active context. Outside one, it enters a new context with just that key set — usually not what you want.
109
-
110
- ## Clearing
111
-
112
- ```ts
113
- userContext.clear();
114
- // replaces the current store with an empty object of TStore
115
- ```
116
-
117
- Rare in app code. The auto-cleanup at the end of `run()` is the normal path.
118
-
119
- ## Convenience getters via subclass
120
-
121
- Add domain-friendly getters on the subclass when a key is read a lot:
122
-
123
- ```ts
124
- class TenantContext extends Context<TenantStore> {
125
- public buildStore(payload?: Record<string, any>): TenantStore {
126
- return {
127
- tenantId: payload?.tenantId ?? "",
128
- tenantName: payload?.tenantName ?? "",
129
- config: payload?.config ?? {},
130
- };
131
- }
132
-
133
- public get tenantId() {
134
- return this.get("tenantId");
135
- }
136
-
137
- public get config() {
138
- return this.get("config");
139
- }
140
- }
141
- ```
142
-
143
- Now `tenantContext.tenantId` reads better than `tenantContext.get("tenantId")` at the call site.
144
-
145
- ## What it's NOT for
146
-
147
- - **Persistent state across requests.** AsyncLocalStorage is per-call-tree; data dies when the scope ends. Use a cache, a database, or a singleton for cross-request data.
148
- - **Thread-safe shared mutable state.** Each `run()` gets a fresh store. Two parallel `run()` calls don't see each other's updates.
149
- - **Sync code that doesn't `await` anything.** Works, but if there's no async boundary the context add-overhead is wasted — just pass the data as a parameter.

- - [`@warlock.js/context/orchestrate-contexts/SKILL.md`](@warlock.js/context/orchestrate-contexts/SKILL.md) — running multiple contexts together via the `contextManager` singleton.
154
-
155
- ## Things NOT to do
156
-
157
- - Don't make every cross-cutting concern a context. Build one when it has its own lifecycle (request, db transaction, trace span). For one-off data, a function argument is clearer.
158
- - Don't capture the store reference outside the scope — it's freed when `run()` ends. Read the value out before exiting the scope if you need it later.
159
- - Don't mutate the store object directly without `update`/`set` — works, but obscures intent. The methods exist to make state changes searchable.
160
- - Don't share one context instance across unrelated concerns. One typed context per domain concept reads better than one fat `globalContext`.

- # Orchestrate contexts — `contextManager`
7
-
8
- `contextManager` is a singleton that knows about every registered `Context` and runs them all together so you don't write nested `run()` calls by hand.
9
-
10
- ## Why use it
11
-
12
- You can call `context.run(store, fn)` directly when you only have one context. With two or more, the manager handles the nesting:
13
-
14
- ```ts
15
- // ❌ Without the manager — fragile, easy to forget a layer
16
- await requestContext.run(reqStore, async () =>
17
- databaseContext.run(dbStore, async () =>
18
- tenantContext.run(tenantStore, async () => handle()),
19
- ),
20
- );
21
-
22
- // ✅ With the manager — one call, deterministic order
23
- await contextManager.runAll({ request: reqStore, database: dbStore, tenant: tenantStore }, handle);
24
- ```
25
-
26
- ## Register contexts at boot
27
-
28
- ```ts
29
- import { contextManager } from "@warlock.js/context";
30
- import { requestContext } from "./request-context";
31
- import { databaseContext } from "./database-context";
32
- import { tenantContext } from "./tenant-context";
33
-
34
- contextManager
35
- .register("request", requestContext)
36
- .register("database", databaseContext)
37
- .register("tenant", tenantContext);
38
- ```
39
-
40
- Returns the manager — chain registrations. Names must be unique; re-registering with the same name overwrites.
41
-
42
- ## Build stores + run
43
-
44
- The typical flow is two-step: build initial stores from a request-like payload, then run.
45
-
46
- ```ts
47
- app.use(async (req, res, next) => {
48
- const stores = contextManager.buildStores({
49
- request: req,
50
- response: res,
51
- tenantId: req.headers["x-tenant-id"],
52
- });
53
-
54
- await contextManager.runAll(stores, async () => {
55
- await next();
56
- });
57
- });
58
- ```
59
-
60
- `buildStores(payload)` calls each registered context's `buildStore(payload)` (the abstract method on `Context<TStore>` — see [`@warlock.js/context/define-context/SKILL.md`](@warlock.js/context/define-context/SKILL.md)) and returns `{ [contextName]: store }`.
61
-
62
- `runAll(stores, fn)` nests every context's `run()` in registration order, then invokes `fn` at the innermost layer. All contexts are active inside `fn`.
63
-
64
- ## `enterAll()` — middleware without a callback
65
-
66
- When the framework doesn't give you a callback to wrap (e.g. Express middleware where you call `next()` and return):
67
-
68
- ```ts
69
- function contextMiddleware(req, res, next) {
70
- const stores = contextManager.buildStores({ request: req, response: res });
71
- contextManager.enterAll(stores);
72
- next();
73
- }
74
- ```
75
-
76
- `enterAll` calls `enter()` on each registered context whose name has a **truthy** store value — a `name` with no key (or a falsy value like `undefined`) is skipped, leaving any already-active store for that context untouched. The entered contexts live for the rest of the request. Each can still be `clear()`-ed later. Use `runAll` when you can — `enterAll` doesn't auto-clean.
77
-
78
- ## Lookup + introspection
79
-
80
- ```ts
81
- contextManager.hasContext("tenant"); // boolean
82
- const tenant = contextManager.getContext<TenantContext>("tenant");
83
- // returns the registered instance or undefined
84
- contextManager.unregister("debug"); // remove a context
85
- contextManager.clearAll(); // clear stores on every context
86
- ```
87
-
88
- `getContext<T>` returns the registered instance cast to `T` (the generic is constrained to `Context<any>`, so pass the concrete context class — `getContext<TenantContext>("tenant")`). It's an unchecked cast: an unknown `name` returns `undefined`, and a wrong type argument won't be caught at runtime. Useful in shared utilities that want to read from a context without importing it at the call site.
89
-
90
- ## Order matters
91
-
92
- `runAll` nests in **registration order**. The first-registered context is the outermost layer. If contexts have ordering constraints (database before tenant because tenant resolves via the db), register them in that order.
93
-
94
- ```ts
95
- contextManager
96
- .register("trace", traceContext) // outermost — runs first
97
- .register("request", requestContext)
98
- .register("database", databaseContext)
99
- .register("tenant", tenantContext); // innermost — runs last, inside all others
100
- ```
101
-
102
- ## Real-world: multi-tenant request lifecycle
103
-
104
- ```ts
105
- import { Context, contextManager } from "@warlock.js/context";
106
- import { randomUUID } from "crypto";
107
-
108
- class TraceContext extends Context<{ traceId: string; startTime: number }> {
109
- public buildStore(): { traceId: string; startTime: number } {
110
- return { traceId: randomUUID(), startTime: Date.now() };
111
- }
112
-
113
- public get traceId() {
114
- return this.get("traceId");
115
- }
116
- }
117
-
118
- class RequestContext extends Context<{ request: any; response: any }> {
119
- public buildStore(payload?: any) {
120
- return { request: payload?.request, response: payload?.response };
121
- }

157
-
158
- - Don't register the same context under two names — every context is its own singleton and shares its store across registrations, but multiple names confuse `buildStores` (the payload is split per name).
159
- - Don't `runAll` an empty stores map — every key without a registered context is silently ignored, and missing contexts get `{}` as their store. Better to construct the stores explicitly and fail loudly when a key is missing.
160
- - Don't use the manager when only one context applies. `context.run(store, fn)` is shorter and has the same semantics.
161
- - Don't expect `enterAll()` to auto-clean. It's a one-way setup — pair with `clearAll()` at the end of the request, or just use `runAll` when you can.

+ # Orchestrate contexts — `contextManager`
7
+
8
+ `contextManager` is a singleton that knows about every registered `Context` and runs them all together so you don't write nested `run()` calls by hand.
9
+
10
+ ## Why use it
11
+
12
+ You can call `context.run(store, fn)` directly when you only have one context. With two or more, the manager handles the nesting:
13
+
14
+ ```ts
15
+ // ❌ Without the manager — fragile, easy to forget a layer
16
+ await requestContext.run(reqStore, async () =>
17
+ databaseContext.run(dbStore, async () =>
18
+ tenantContext.run(tenantStore, async () => handle()),
19
+ ),
20
+ );
21
+
22
+ // ✅ With the manager — one call, deterministic order
23
+ await contextManager.runAll({ request: reqStore, database: dbStore, tenant: tenantStore }, handle);
24
+ ```
25
+
26
+ ## Register contexts at boot
27
+
28
+ ```ts
29
+ import { contextManager } from "@warlock.js/context";
30
+ import { requestContext } from "./request-context";
31
+ import { databaseContext } from "./database-context";
32
+ import { tenantContext } from "./tenant-context";
33
+
34
+ contextManager
35
+ .register("request", requestContext)
36
+ .register("database", databaseContext)
37
+ .register("tenant", tenantContext);
38
+ ```
39
+
40
+ Returns the manager — chain registrations. Names must be unique; re-registering with the same name overwrites.
41
+
42
+ ## Build stores + run
43
+
44
+ The typical flow is two-step: build initial stores from a request-like payload, then run.
45
+
46
+ ```ts
47
+ app.use(async (req, res, next) => {
48
+ const stores = contextManager.buildStores({
49
+ request: req,
50
+ response: res,
51
+ tenantId: req.headers["x-tenant-id"],
52
+ });
53
+
54
+ await contextManager.runAll(stores, async () => {
55
+ await next();
56
+ });
57
+ });
58
+ ```
59
+
60
+ `buildStores(payload)` calls each registered context's `buildStore(payload)` (the abstract method on `Context<TStore>` — see [`@warlock.js/context/define-context/SKILL.md`](@warlock.js/context/define-context/SKILL.md)) and returns `{ [contextName]: store }`.
61
+
62
+ `runAll(stores, fn)` nests every context's `run()` in registration order, then invokes `fn` at the innermost layer. All contexts are active inside `fn`.
63
+
64
+ ## `enterAll()` — middleware without a callback
65
+
66
+ When the framework doesn't give you a callback to wrap (e.g. Express middleware where you call `next()` and return):
67
+
68
+ ```ts
69
+ function contextMiddleware(req, res, next) {
70
+ const stores = contextManager.buildStores({ request: req, response: res });
71
+ contextManager.enterAll(stores);
72
+ next();
73
+ }
74
+ ```
75
+
76
+ `enterAll` calls `enter()` on each registered context whose name has a **truthy** store value — a `name` with no key (or a falsy value like `undefined`) is skipped, leaving any already-active store for that context untouched. The entered contexts live for the rest of the request. Each can still be `clear()`-ed later. Use `runAll` when you can — `enterAll` doesn't auto-clean.
77
+
78
+ ## Lookup + introspection
79
+
80
+ ```ts
81
+ contextManager.hasContext("tenant"); // boolean
82
+ const tenant = contextManager.getContext<TenantContext>("tenant");
83
+ // returns the registered instance or undefined
84
+ contextManager.unregister("debug"); // remove a context
85
+ contextManager.clearAll(); // clear stores on every context
86
+ ```
87
+
88
+ `getContext<T>` returns the registered instance cast to `T` (the generic is constrained to `Context<any>`, so pass the concrete context class — `getContext<TenantContext>("tenant")`). It's an unchecked cast: an unknown `name` returns `undefined`, and a wrong type argument won't be caught at runtime. Useful in shared utilities that want to read from a context without importing it at the call site.
89
+
90
+ ## Order matters
91
+
92
+ `runAll` nests in **registration order**. The first-registered context is the outermost layer. If contexts have ordering constraints (database before tenant because tenant resolves via the db), register them in that order.
93
+
94
+ ```ts
95
+ contextManager
96
+ .register("trace", traceContext) // outermost — runs first
97
+ .register("request", requestContext)
98
+ .register("database", databaseContext)
99
+ .register("tenant", tenantContext); // innermost — runs last, inside all others
100
+ ```
101
+
102
+ ## Real-world: multi-tenant request lifecycle
103
+
104
+ ```ts
105
+ import { Context, contextManager } from "@warlock.js/context";
106
+ import { randomUUID } from "crypto";
107
+
108

109

110

111
+ }
112
+
113
+ public get traceId() {
114
+ return this.get("traceId");
115
+ }
116
+ }
117
+
118
+ class RequestContext extends Context<{ request: any; response: any }> {
119
+ public buildStore(payload?: any) {
120
+ return { request: payload?.request, response: payload?.response };
121
+ }
122
+ }
123
+
124
+ class TenantContext extends Context<{ tenantId: string }> {
125
+ public buildStore(payload?: any) {
126
+ return { tenantId: payload?.tenantId ?? "" };
127
+ }
128
+ }
129
+
130
+ export const traceContext = new TraceContext();
131
+ export const requestContext = new RequestContext();
132
+ export const tenantContext = new TenantContext();
133
+
134
+ contextManager
135
+ .register("trace", traceContext)
136
+ .register("request", requestContext)
137
+ .register("tenant", tenantContext);
138

139

141

145

148

150
+
151
+ await routeAndDispatch(req, res);
152

153
