4
+ Guidance for correct usage of the `cipher-logger` package (npm: cipher-logger,
5
+ organization: cipherunits) — an HTTP logging library for Node.js used with Express
6
+ and Next.js. Activate this skill whenever a user wants request logging, error
7
+ logging, middleware logs, or basic observability added to an Express or Next.js
8
+ project (especially cipherunits projects like rayyan-backend, Mananegar, Setad
9
+ Mahalle, Fusion GUI), or when imports of "cipher-logger" or `createCipherLogger`
10
+ are detected in code. Also use this skill to review/debug code that uses
11
+ cipher-logger (for example, incorrect status/duration in Next.js middleware or
12
+ optional fields not being logged) — even if the user simply asks "set up a
13
+ logger" or "add request logging" without naming the package.

16
+ # Cipher Logger — Agent Skill
17
+
18
+ This skill is the official reference for installing, configuring, and correctly
19
+ using **cipher-logger** — a lightweight, production-ready HTTP logging library
20
+ for Node.js (organization: `cipherunits`, repository: `github.com/cipherunits/CipherLogger`).
21
+ Important: do not assume the API based on similarity to winston/pino/morgan — use
22
+ the exact API documented here.
23
+
24
+ ## Golden Rule
25
+
26
+ cipher-logger has three distinct parts that must not be mixed:
27
+
28
+ 1. **`Logger`** — the base application logger class (independent of HTTP). Use for
29
+ `logger.info/warn/error/debug`.
30
+ 2. **`createCipherLogger(config)`** — factory that creates the main instance,
31
+ configures optional fields and level, and exposes `.express()`, `.next()`, and
32
+ `.logRequest()`.
33
+ 3. **Framework adapters** (`cipher.express()` and `cipher.next()`) — ready-made
34
+ middleware; mount them rather than writing manual request logging.
35
+
36
+ If the user only asks to "log requests", they usually need steps 2 and 3, not 1.
37
+
38
+ ## Installation
39
+
40
+ ```bash
41
+ pnpm add cipher-logger
42
+ # Framework packages are peer dependencies:
43
+ pnpm add express # if using Express
44
+ pnpm add next # if using Next.js
45
+ ```
46
+
47
+ Node.js 18+ is required. Install only the peer dependency actually used by the
48
+ project (e.g., `express` or `next`).
49
+
50
+ ## Quick Decision Map
51
+
52
+ | Project type | What to mount/call |
53
+ |---|---|
54
+ | Express API (e.g. rayyan-backend if the backend is Node) | `cipher.express()` mounted before routes |
55
+ | Next.js (e.g. Setad Mahalle, Mananegar) | `middleware.ts` using `cipher.next()` |
56
+ | Manual non-HTTP event logging | `new Logger({...})` and `.info/.warn/.error/.debug` |
57
+ | Manual request logging (e.g. inside a job/cron) | `cipher.logRequest(input)` |
58
+
59
+ ## Usage Steps (Summary)
60
+
61
+ 1. Create a logger with `createCipherLogger({ fields: {...}, level: "info", prefix: "..." })` —
62
+ enable only the fields the user actually needs; all optional fields default to `false`.
63
+ 2. For Express: mount `app.use(cipher.express())` **before** route definitions, otherwise
64
+ status/duration will be incorrect because the middleware must observe the request.
65
+ 3. For Next.js: use `cipher.next()` in `middleware.ts` (or `src/middleware.ts`) and
66
+ always restrict `config.matcher` to exclude static/image routes to avoid noisy logs.
67
+ 4. For more detailed guidance, read the related skill files below — only open the
68
+ section relevant to the user's request:
69
+ - `skills/fusion-references/SKILL.md` — configuration options and optional fields
70
+ - `skills/fusion-express-integration/SKILL.md` — Express integration and sample output
71
+ - `skills/fusion-nextjs-integration/SKILL.md` — Next.js middleware and the important
72
+ status/duration limitation
73
+ - `skills/fusion-log-schema/SKILL.md` — full log schema (required/optional fields)
74
+ - `skills/fusion-api-reference/SKILL.md` — function/class signatures and TypeScript exports
75
+ - `skills/fusion-architecture/SKILL.md` — internal package structure (for debugging/contrib)
76
+
77
+ ## Common Pitfalls (Follow these)
78
+
79
+ - **Check peer dependencies**: If the project is Express but `express` is not installed
80
+ (or vice versa), a runtime error will occur. Check `package.json` before suggesting code.
81
+ - **Default `level` is `"debug"`**, not `"info"` — in production `"info"` is usually
82
+ more appropriate; set it explicitly in config instead of relying on the package default.
83
+ - **In Next.js middleware, `status` and `duration` reflect the middleware's execution, not
84
+ the final route response** (because middleware runs before route handlers). Remind the
85
+ user of this when they expect the actual response status — route-handler wrappers are
86
+ planned for future versions but are not available now.
87
+ - **In Express the opposite is true**: `status` and `duration` are recorded after `res.finish`
88
+ and therefore reflect the real response — explain this difference when comparing adapters.
89
+ - **Optional fields are off by default**; the user must explicitly enable `ip`, `userAgent`,
90
+ `query`, etc.
91
+ - **This package is lightweight** — don't recommend adding heavy log frameworks like
92
+ winston/pino unless the user specifically asks; the package is intended to be minimal.
93
+ - **Exclude static routes in Next.js matcher** (example: `/((?!_next/static|_next/image|favicon.ico).*)`) to
94
+ avoid excessive noisy logs.
95
+
96
+ ## Before Suggesting Code
97
+
98
+ 1. Check whether the project is Express or Next.js (via `package.json` or folder structure).
99
+ 2. If `middleware.ts` already exists, merge the new code instead of replacing it (it may
100
+ contain other middleware like auth or i18n).
101
+ 3. If the project is a monorepo (e.g. Mananegar), determine which workspace/app the
102
+ package should be installed into, not necessarily the monorepo root.

+ ### Instance methods
12
+
13
+ | Method | Description |
14
+ | ----------------------------- | ---------------------------------------- |
15
+ | `cipher.logRequest(input)` | Manually log an HTTP request |
16
+ | `cipher.express()` | Returns Express middleware |
17
+ | `cipher.next()` | Returns Next.js middleware |
18
+
19
+ Use `cipher.logRequest(input)` when the request cannot be captured by standard
20
+ middleware — for example inside a route handler when you need to log the actual
21
+ response status (not the middleware's status), subject to the limitation described
22
+ in `skills/fusion-nextjs-integration/SKILL.md`.
23
+
24
+ ## `Logger` — base application logger (non-HTTP)
25
+
26
+ For regular application logs (server startup, non-HTTP errors, deprecation warnings)
27
+ use `Logger` directly rather than `createCipherLogger`:
28
+
29
+ ```ts
30
+ import { Logger } from "cipher-logger";
31
+
32
+ const logger = new Logger({ level: "info", prefix: "app" });
33
+
34
+ logger.info("Server started");
35
+ logger.warn("Deprecated API used", { route: "/old" });
36
+ logger.error("Unhandled error", { err: "..." });
37
+ logger.debug("Debug info");
38
+ ```
39
+
40
+ Each method (`info` / `warn` / `error` / `debug`) accepts a text message and an
41
+ optional metadata object.
42
+
43
+ ## TypeScript Exports
44
+
45
+ ```ts
46
+ import type {
47
+ CipherLogger,
48
+ CipherLoggerConfig,
49
+ RequestLog,
50

54
+ ExpressMiddleware,
55
+ NextMiddleware,
56

+ ```
58
+
59
+ If the user wants to write a type-safe wrapper or factory over this package
60
+ (for example for Fusion GUI or a shared package in the Mananegar monorepo), use
61

+ same `buildRequestLog` core — only the extraction of request/response fields from

51
+ ## Adding a new adapter (e.g. Fastify)
52
+
53
+ Create a new file such as `src/fastify/middleware.ts` that calls the same
54
+ `buildRequestLog` from `core/build-request-log.ts` and only differs in how fields
55

7
+ import { createCipherLogger } from "cipher-logger";

12
+ fields: {
13

14

15

16

17

18

23

24

25

26
+ res.json({ users: [] });
27
+ });
28
+
29
+ app.listen(3000, () => {
30
+ console.log("Server running on http://localhost:3000");
31
+ });
32
+ ```
33
+
34
+ ## Critical note: mount order
35
+
36
+ `app.use(cipher.express())` must be called **before any route handlers** (it is
37
+ usually fine to mount it after body-parser/CORS at the start of the chain) so the
38
+ middleware can observe `res.finish`.

3
+ ## Full approach — `middleware.ts` at project root (or `src/middleware.ts`)
4
+
5
+ ```ts
6
+ import { createCipherLogger } from "cipher-logger";
7
+ import type { NextRequest } from "next/server";
8
+
9
+ const cipher = createCipherLogger({
10
+ fields: {
11
+ ip: true,
12
+ userAgent: true,
13
+ host: true,
14
+ query: true,

+ // all paths except static and image files
26
+ "/((?!_next/static|_next/image|favicon.ico).*)",
27
+ ],
28
+ };
29
+ ```
30
+
31
+ ## Short approach (when no other middleware exists in the project)
32
+
33
+ ```ts
34
+ import { createCipherLogger } from "cipher-logger";
35
+
36
+ const cipher = createCipherLogger({
37
+ fields: { ip: true, userAgent: true },
38
+ });
39
+
40
+ export default cipher.next();
41
+
42
+ export const config = {
43
+ matcher: ["/api/:path*", "/dashboard/:path*"],
44
+ };
45
+ ```
46
+
47
+ ⚠️ If the project already has `middleware.ts` (for example auth or i18n — like
48
+ Mananegar/Setad Mahalle which are multilingual), do not use the short approach; instead
49
+ merge the export function with the existing logic using the full method above, because
50
+ only one default middleware export is allowed per Next.js project.
51
+
52
+ ## ⚠️ Important limitation — read before explaining status/duration to the user
53
+
54
+ Next.js middleware runs **before** the route handler. Therefore:
55
+
56
+ - `status` and `duration` recorded in the logs refer to the **middleware's execution**,
57
+ not the final response returned by the route handler.
58
+ - If the user expects the actual API route status code (e.g. 404 or 500 from inside a
59
+ handler) to appear in this log, **that is not possible** with the current package.
60
+ - According to the official package docs, a "route handler wrapper for more accurate
61
+ logging" is planned for future versions but is not available now — do not claim
62
+ such an API exists at present.
63
+ - If the user needs accurate status/duration for a route, the current solution is to
64
+ manually call `cipher.logRequest(input)` inside the route handler or use the `Logger`
65
+ class (see `skills/fusion-api-reference/SKILL.md`), not the middleware.
66
+
67
+ ## Always restrict the matcher
68
+
69
+ Without a restricted `matcher`, static requests (`_next/static`, `_next/image`,
70
+ `favicon.ico`) will also be logged and produce a lot of noise. Official suggested
71
+ pattern:
72
+
73
+ ```ts

+
