-
-This skill builds on questpie-core. It covers collections, globals, fields, relations, and localization -- the data modeling layer of QUESTPIE.
-
-## Imports
-
-Data model files import generated factories from the `#questpie/factories` alias:
-
-```ts
-import { collection, global } from "#questpie/factories";
-```
-
-Drizzle index helpers come from `drizzle-orm/pg-core`:
-
-```ts
-import { uniqueIndex, index } from "drizzle-orm/pg-core";
-```
-
-## Collections
-
-A collection is a database-backed data model. Each collection file exports a builder chain:
-
-```ts title="collections/posts.ts"
-import { collection } from "#questpie/factories";
-
-export default collection("posts")
-	.fields(({ f }) => ({
-		title: f.text(255).required(),
-		body: f.richText().localized(),
-		cover: f.upload({ to: "assets", mimeTypes: ["image/*"] }),
-		status: f
-			.select([
-				{ value: "draft", label: "Draft" },
-				{ value: "published", label: "Published" },
-			])
-			.default("draft"),
-		publishedAt: f.date(),
-	}))
-	.title(({ f }) => f.title)
-	.admin(({ c }) => ({
-		label: { en: "Posts" },
-		icon: c.icon("ph:article"),
-	}))
-	.options({ timestamps: true, versioning: true });
-```
-
-### Builder Chain Methods
-
-| Method                                          | Purpose                                 |
-| ----------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------- |
-| `.fields(({ f }) => ({...}))`                   | Define data fields                      |
-| `.title(({ f }) => f.name)`                     | Record display title                    |
-| `.admin(({ c }) => ({...}))`                    | Admin UI metadata (label, icon, hidden) |
-| `.indexes(({ table }) => [...])`                | Database indexes                        |
-| `.list(({ v, f }) => v.collectionTable({...}))` | List view config                        |
-| `.form(({ v, f }) => v.collectionForm({...}))`  | Form view config                        |
-| `.hooks({...})`                                 | Lifecycle hooks                         |
-| `.access({...})`                                | Access control rules                    |
-| `.preview({...})`                               | Live preview config                     |
-| `.options({...})`                               | Timestamps, versioning, soft delete     |
-| `.search({...})`                                | Search indexing                         |
-| `.searchable(string[])`                         | Searchable fields                       |
-
-### Collection Options
-
-```ts
-.options({
-  timestamps: true,   // adds createdAt, updatedAt
-  versioning: true,   // track content versions
-  softDelete: true,   // mark as deleted instead of removing
-})
-```
-
-### Indexes
-
-```ts
-import { uniqueIndex } from "drizzle-orm/pg-core";
-
-.indexes(({ table }) => [
-  uniqueIndex("posts_slug_unique").on(table.slug),
-])
-```
-
-### Live Preview
-
-```ts
-.preview({
-  enabled: true,
-  position: "right",     // "right" | "bottom"
-  defaultWidth: 50,
-  url: ({ record }) => `/posts/${record.slug}?preview=true`,
-})
-```
-
-Live Preview uses the existing admin `FormView`, Preview button, `LivePreviewMode`, and iframe. Do not introduce a separate visual-edit form API, a second default form view, or parallel preview API names.
-
-When workflow is the publication source for pages, public reads use `stage: "published"` and preview/draft-mode reads can load the working stage for authorized editors. Do not add duplicate publication booleans for the same concern.
-
-### Access Control
-
-```ts
-.access({
-  read: true,
-  create: ({ session }) => session?.user?.role === "admin",
-  update: ({ session }) => session?.user?.role === "admin",
-  delete: ({ session }) => session?.user?.role === "admin",
-})
-```
-
-### CRUD Operations (Server-Side)
-
-```ts
-const { collections } = context;
-
-// Find many
-const results = await collections.posts.find({
-	where: { status: "published" },
-	orderBy: { publishedAt: "desc" },
-	limit: 10,
-	offset: 0,
-});
-// results.docs: Post[], results.totalDocs: number
-
-// Find one
-const post = await collections.posts.findOne({ where: { id: "abc" } });
-
-// Create
-const newPost = await collections.posts.create({
-	title: "Hello",
-	body: "<p>World</p>",
-	status: "draft",
-});
-
-// Update
-await collections.posts.update({
-	where: { id: "abc" },
-	data: { status: "published" },
-});
-
-// Delete
-await collections.posts.delete({ where: { id: "abc" } });
-
-// Count
-const count = await collections.posts.count({ where: { status: "published" } });
-```
-
-## Globals
-
-A global is a singleton -- one record, no list view. Use for site-wide settings:
-
-```ts title="globals/site-settings.ts"
-import { global } from "#questpie/factories";
-
-export const siteSettings = global("siteSettings")
-	.fields(({ f }) => ({
-		shopName: f.text().required().default("My App"),
-		tagline: f.text().localized(),
-		logo: f.upload({ to: "assets" }),
-		contactEmail: f.email().required(),
-	}))
-	.admin(({ c }) => ({
-		label: { en: "Site Settings" },
-		icon: c.icon("ph:gear"),
-	}))
-	.options({ timestamps: true, versioning: true })
-	.access({
-		read: true,
-		update: ({ session }) => session?.user?.role === "admin",
-	});
-```
-
-### Global Builder Methods
-
-Globals share most methods with collections but do NOT support `.list()`, `.indexes()`, `.title()`, or `.preview()`.
-
-| Method                                     | Purpose                    |
-| ------------------------------------------ | -------------------------- |
-| `.fields(({ f }) => ({...}))`              | Define data fields         |
-| `.admin(({ c }) => ({...}))`               | Admin label and icon       |
-| `.form(({ v, f }) => v.globalForm({...}))` | Form layout                |
-| `.hooks({...})`                            | Lifecycle hooks            |
-| `.access({...})`                           | Read/update access control |
-| `.options({...})`                          | Timestamps, versioning     |
-
-### Global API
-
-```ts
-// Server-side
-const settings = await globals.siteSettings.get();
-await globals.siteSettings.update({ shopName: "New Name" });
-
-// Client-side
-const settings = await client.globals.siteSettings.get();
-await client.globals.siteSettings.update({ shopName: "New Name" });
-```
-
-## Fields
-
-Fields are defined inside `.fields()` using the `f` builder. Each field drives the database column, API validation, query operators, client types, and admin UI.
-
-### Field Types Overview
-
-| Field          | DB Type               | Use Case                        |

-| `f.text()`     | `varchar` / `text`    | Short strings, titles, slugs    |
-| `f.textarea()` | `text`                | Long text, descriptions         |
-| `f.richText()` | `text` (HTML)         | Rich formatted content          |

-| `f.datetime()` | `timestamp`           | Date + time                     |
-| `f.select()`   | `varchar`             | Single choice from list         |
-| `f.relation()` | FK column             | Reference to another collection |
-| `f.upload()`   | FK column             | File upload linked to storage   |

-
-See `references/field-types.md` for complete config options per field type.
-
-### Common Field Options
-
-Every field accepts:
-
-| Option        | Type                               | Description                              |
-| ------------- | ---------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------- |
-| `required`    | `boolean`                          | Field must have a value                  |
-| `default`     | `T`                                | Default value                            |
-| `label`       | `string \| Record<string, string>` | Display label (supports i18n)            |
-| `description` | `string \| Record<string, string>` | Help text                                |
-| `localized`   | `boolean`                          | Enable per-locale values                 |
-| `input`       | `"optional"`                       | Optional in API input but required in DB |
-| `meta`        | `object`                           | Admin UI rendering hints                 |
-| `virtual`     | `SQL`                              | SQL expression for computed fields       |
-
-### Virtual (Computed) Fields
-
-```ts
-import { sql } from "questpie";
-
-displayTitle: f.text().virtual(sql<string>`(
-    SELECT COALESCE(name, 'Unknown') || ' - ' ||
-    TO_CHAR("scheduledAt", 'YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI')
-    FROM appointments WHERE id = appointments.id
-  )`),
-```
-
-Virtual fields are read-only -- they appear in queries but cannot be written to.
-
-## Relations
-
-All relations are defined via `f.relation()` inside `.fields()`.
-
-### Belongs-To (Single)
-
-```ts
-author: f.relation("users").required(),
-barber: f.relation("barbers").required().onDelete("cascade"),
-```
-
-Creates a foreign key column pointing to the target collection's `id`.
-
-### Many-to-Many (Through Junction)
-
-Requires a junction collection plus `through`, `sourceField`, and `targetField`:
-
-```ts title="collections/barber-services.ts"
-import { collection } from "#questpie/factories";
-
-// Junction table
-export default collection("barberServices")
-	.fields(({ f }) => ({
-		barber: f.relation("barbers").required().onDelete("cascade"),
-		service: f.relation("services").required().onDelete("cascade"),
-	}))
-	.admin(({ c }) => ({ hidden: true }));
-```
-
-```ts title="collections/barbers.ts (inside .fields())"
-services: f.relation("services").manyToMany({
-  through: "barberServices",
-  sourceField: "barber",   // FK in junction pointing to THIS collection
-  targetField: "service",  // FK in junction pointing to TARGET collection
-}),
-```
-
-```ts title="collections/services.ts (inside .fields())"
-barbers: f.relation("barbers").manyToMany({
-  through: "barberServices",
-  sourceField: "service",
-  targetField: "barber",
-}),
-```
-
-### Querying Relations
-
-```ts
-// Include related data
-const barber = await collections.barbers.findOne({
-	where: { id: "abc" },
-	with: { services: true },
-});
-// barber.services: Service[]
-
-// Filter by relation
-const appointments = await collections.appointments.find({
-	where: { barber: barberId, status: "pending" },
-});
-```
-
-## Localization
-
-### Locale Configuration
-
-```ts title="config/app.ts"
-import { appConfig } from "questpie";
-
-export default appConfig({
-	locale: {
-		locales: [
-			{ code: "en", label: "English", fallback: true, flagCountryCode: "us" },
-			{ code: "sk", label: "Slovencina" },
-			{ code: "de", label: "Deutsch" },
-		],
-		defaultLocale: "en",
-	},
-});
-```
-
-### Localizing Fields
-
-Chain `.localized()` on any field that needs per-locale content:
-
-```ts
-name: f.text().required().localized(),
-description: f.textarea().localized(),
-price: f.number().required(),  // NOT localized -- same in all locales
-```
-
-Localizable types: `text`, `textarea`, `richText`, `select`, `array`, `blocks`.
-Typically NOT localized: `number`, `boolean`, `date`, `relation`.
-
-### Localized Arrays
-
-Arrays can be localized as a whole -- each locale gets its own array:
-
-```ts
-navigation: f.object({
-	label: f.text().required(),
-	href: f.text().required(),
-}).array().localized(),
-```
-
-### Querying Localized Content
-
-```ts
-// Server-side -- locale comes from request context
-const services = await collections.services.find({ where: { isActive: true } });
-
-// Client-side -- set locale explicitly
-client.setLocale("sk");
-const services = await client.collections.services.find({
-	where: { isActive: true },
-});
-```
-
-### Admin UI Locale (Separate)
-
-The admin panel has its own locale config for the interface language:
-
-```ts title="config/admin.ts"
-import { adminConfig } from "#questpie/factories";
-
-export default adminConfig({
-	locale: {
-		locales: ["en", "sk"],
-		defaultLocale: "en",
-	},
-});
-```
-
-This controls the admin interface language, NOT content locales.
-
-## Nested Objects and Reusable Patterns
-
-Use helper functions to avoid repetition in object fields:
-
-```ts
-.fields(({ f }) => {
-  const daySchedule = () => ({
-    isOpen: f.boolean().default(true),
-    start: f.time(),
-    end: f.time(),
-  });
-
-  return {
-    workingHours: f.object({
-      fields: () => ({
-        monday: f.object({ fields: daySchedule }),
-        tuesday: f.object({ fields: daySchedule }),
-        wednesday: f.object({ fields: daySchedule }),
-      }),
-    }),
-  };
-})
-```
-
-## Form Layout
-
-```ts
-.form(({ v, f }) =>
-  v.collectionForm({
-    sidebar: {
-      position: "right",
-      fields: [f.isActive, f.avatar],
-    },
-    fields: [
-      {
-        type: "section",
-        label: { en: "Contact Information" },
-        layout: "grid",
-        columns: 2,
-        fields: [f.name, f.slug, f.email, f.phone],
-      },
-      {
-        type: "section",
-        label: { en: "Profile" },
-        fields: [f.bio],
-      },
-    ],
-  }),
-)
-```
-
-## Common Mistakes
-
-### CRITICAL: Using `.relations()` method
-
-The `.relations()` builder method was removed. All relations are now defined via `f.relation()` inside `.fields()`.
-
-```ts
-// WRONG -- .relations() does not exist
-collection("posts").relations({ author: belongsTo("users") });
-
-// CORRECT -- use f.relation() inside .fields()
-collection("posts").fields(({ f }) => ({
-	author: f.relation("users"),
-}));
-```
-
-### HIGH: Forgetting `export default`
-
-Codegen discovers collections/globals by their default export. Without it, the file is silently ignored.
-
-```ts
-// WRONG -- no default export, codegen won't find it
-export const posts = collection("posts").fields(/* ... */);
-
-// CORRECT
-export default collection("posts").fields(/* ... */);
-```
-
-Note: named exports alongside default are fine (e.g., `export const posts = ...` followed by `export default posts`).
-
-### HIGH: manyToMany without junction table config
-
-A many-to-many relation MUST specify `through`, `sourceField`, and `targetField`. Use `.hasMany({ foreignKey })` for a plain one-to-many reverse relation.
-
-```ts
-// WRONG -- missing through/sourceField/targetField
-services: f.relation("services").manyToMany({});
-
-// CORRECT
-services: f.relation("services").manyToMany({
-	through: "barberServices",
-	sourceField: "barber",
-	targetField: "service",
-});
-```
-
-### MEDIUM: Forgetting `.localized()`
-
-If content should vary by locale but the field does not chain `.localized()`, queries with different locales will return the same value.
-
-### MEDIUM: Object fields -- function vs plain object
-
-Both `f.object({ fields: {...} })` and `f.object({ fields: () => ({...}) })` are valid. Use the function form when reusing helpers or referencing `f`.
