+# Repository Guidelines
+
+## Project Structure & Module Organization
+- `src/` holds TypeScript source. Core entry points are `streamer.ts`, `api.ts`, and `index.ts`.
+- `src/adapters/` contains SQLite/Mongo/Postgres adapters; `src/contracts/` has contract examples; `src/exchanges/` has rate helpers; `src/types/` centralizes shared types.
+- `tests/` contains Jest specs (`**/*.spec.ts`) plus `tests/integration/` and `tests/helpers/`.
+- `dist/` is generated build output; `examples/` provides usage samples; `ecosystem.config.js` is a PM2 reference.
+
+## Build, Test, and Development Commands
+- `npm install` installs dependencies.
+- `npm run build` compiles TypeScript to `dist/`.
+- `npm run start` runs the local dev harness (`src/test.ts`) via ts-node.
+- `npm run watch` enables TypeScript watch mode.
+- `npm test` runs the Jest suite.
+- `npm run clean-tests` clears Jest cache if tests act stale.
+
+## Coding Style & Naming Conventions
+- TypeScript with CommonJS output; keep module boundaries within `src/`.
+- Indent 4 spaces; prefer single quotes (see `tslint.json`).
+- File naming conventions: `*.adapter.ts`, `*.contract.ts`, `*.spec.ts`; shared types live in `src/types/`.
+- TSLint rules in `tslint.json` are the baseline; match existing style before introducing new tooling.
+
+## Testing Guidelines
+- Framework: Jest + `ts-jest` (see `jest.config.js`).
+- Place specs under `tests/` and name `*.spec.ts` (example: `tests/utils.spec.ts`).
+- Use `tests/setup.ts` for shared mocks; integration tests live under `tests/integration/`.
+- No coverage thresholds are configured; add focused tests for new adapters, contracts, or API routes.
+
+## Commit & Pull Request Guidelines
+- Follow Conventional Commits with scopes, as in history: `feat(api): ...`, `fix(contract): ...`, `chore(deps): ...`, `docs(readme): ...`.
+- PRs should include: a clear summary, testing notes (`npm test`/`npm run build`), and docs/CHANGELOG updates for user-facing changes.
+
+## Configuration & Security Notes
+- Keys and usernames should come from env/config (see `src/config.ts`); never commit secrets.
+- When adding new config, document defaults and keep backward compatibility.

+
+## Overview
+
+Hive Stream is a Node.js library for streaming and reacting to blockchain actions on the Hive blockchain. It provides a layer for monitoring blockchain operations, executing contracts, and managing time-based actions. The library includes adapters for data persistence (SQLite, MongoDB) and supports custom smart contracts.
+
+## Development Commands
+
+### Building and Development
+- `npm run build` - Compiles TypeScript to JavaScript using tsconfig.build.json
+- `npm run watch` - Watches TypeScript files and recompiles on changes
+- `npm start` - Runs the test file (src/test.ts) using ts-node
+
+### Testing and Quality
+- `npm test` - Runs Jest tests with verbose output from tests/ directory
+- `npm run clean-tests` - Clears Jest cache
+
+### Code Quality
+- Uses TSLint with custom rules in tslint.json (single quotes, no console restrictions)
+- TypeScript configuration targets esnext with CommonJS modules
+- Jest configured with ts-jest for TypeScript testing
+
+## Code Style Guidelines
+- Always use curly braces for if statements and never shorthand
+
+## Architecture
+
+### Core Components
+
+**Streamer (`src/streamer.ts`)**: The main class that manages blockchain streaming, operation processing, and contract execution. Handles block processing, subscriptions, and maintains connection to Hive API nodes.
+
+**Contracts (`src/contracts/`)**: Smart contract implementations including dice, coinflip, and lotto games. Contracts follow a lifecycle pattern with `create()`, `destroy()`, and `updateBlockInfo()` methods.
+
+**Adapters (`src/adapters/`)**: Data persistence layer with base adapter class and implementations for SQLite and MongoDB. Adapters handle state management, block processing, and data storage.
+
+**Configuration (`src/config.ts`)**: Centralized configuration management supporting environment variables for keys, API endpoints, and blockchain parameters.
+
+### Key Features
+
+**Blockchain Streaming**: Monitors Hive blockchain for specific operations (transfers, custom JSON, posts, comments) with configurable block intervals and fallback API nodes.
+
+**Contract System**: Supports custom smart contracts that execute based on blockchain operations. Contracts can process transfers and custom JSON operations with automatic payload validation.
+
+**Time-based Actions**: Executes contract methods on scheduled intervals (3s, 30s, 1m, 15m, 30m, 1h, 12h, 24h, weekly).
+
+**Multi-adapter Support**: Pluggable adapter system for different storage backends with automatic state persistence and action management.
+
+### Database Schema
+
+When using adapters, the library maintains:
+- Block state (last processed block number)
+- Time-based actions with scheduling metadata
+- Operation logs and contract execution history
+
+### Environment Variables
+
+Required for blockchain operations:
+- `ACTIVE_KEY` - For token transfers and active operations
+- `POSTING_KEY` - For posting operations and signatures
+
+### Deployment
+
+The library includes PM2 configuration in `ecosystem.config.js` for production deployment. The main entry point expects a compiled JavaScript file at the project root.
+
+### Testing Strategy
+
+Tests are located in `tests/` directory with:
+- Contract testing with mock data in `entrants.json`
+- Adapter testing for data persistence
+- Streamer functionality testing
+- Utility function testing
+
+The test setup in `tests/setup.ts` configures the testing environment for blockchain operations.

+# Hive-Stream Documentation
+
+## Introduction
+Hive Stream is a Node.js library for streaming Hive blockchain activity and routing it to contracts you define. Contracts can react to:
+- `custom_json` operations
+- transfer memos
+- time-based actions
+- escrow operations
+
+This document focuses on the contract system and how to build robust contracts using the new `defineContract`/`action` API.
+
+---
+
+## Concepts
+
+### Contracts
+A **contract** is a definition object with:
+- a **name**
+- one or more **actions**
+- optional **lifecycle hooks**
+
+Contracts are registered with the `Streamer` and called when a payload matches `contract` + `action`.
+
+### Actions
+An **action** is a handler function plus metadata such as:
+- the trigger (`custom_json`, `transfer`, or `time`)
+- the trigger (`custom_json`, `transfer`, `time`, `escrow_transfer`, `escrow_approve`, `escrow_dispute`, `escrow_release`, or `recurrent_transfer`)
+- an optional Zod schema to validate payloads
+- whether it requires an active key signature
+
+### Payload Identifier
+Hive Stream extracts payloads from:
+- **custom_json**: `op[1].json`
+- **transfer memo**: `op[1].memo`
+
+It expects a wrapper object that looks like:
+
+```
+{
+  "hive_stream": {
+    "contract": "mycontract",
+    "action": "doSomething",
+    "payload": { "any": "data" },
+    "meta": { "optional": true }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+The wrapper key `hive_stream` is the default `PAYLOAD_IDENTIFIER`. You can change it in config.
+
+---
+
+## Contract API
+
+### Define a Contract
+
+```ts
+import { defineContract, action } from 'hive-stream';
+
+const MyContract = defineContract({
+    name: 'mycontract',
+    actions: {
+        hello: action(async (payload, ctx) => {
+            console.log('hello', payload.name, ctx.sender);
+        }, {
+            trigger: 'custom_json'
+        })
+    }
+});
+```
+
+### Register a Contract
+
+```ts
+import { Streamer } from 'hive-stream';
+
+const streamer = new Streamer();
+await streamer.registerContract(MyContract);
+```
+
+### Unregister a Contract
+
+```ts
+await streamer.unregisterContract('mycontract');
+```
+
+### Contract Lifecycle Hooks
+
+```ts
+const MyContract = defineContract({
+    name: 'mycontract',
+    hooks: {
+        create: async ({ streamer, adapter, config }) => {
+            // initialize tables, cache config, etc
+        },
+        destroy: async ({ streamer, adapter }) => {
+            // cleanup resources
+        }
+    },
+    actions: { ... }
+});
+```
+
+---
+
+## Contract Context
+
+Every action receives a `ContractContext` with:
+
+- `trigger`: `custom_json | transfer | time | escrow_transfer | escrow_approve | escrow_dispute | escrow_release | recurrent_transfer`
+- `streamer`: access to Hive client and helpers
+- `adapter`: database adapter
+- `config`: resolved config values
+- `block`: `{ number, id, previousId, time }`
+- `transaction`: `{ id }`
+- `sender`: Hive account invoking the action
+- `transfer`: transfer details (only for `transfer` trigger)
+- `customJson`: custom JSON details (only for `custom_json` trigger)
+- `escrow`: escrow details (only for escrow triggers)
+- `operation`: raw operation data and operation type for advanced use cases
+
+### Example
+
+```ts
+action((payload, ctx) => {
+    console.log(ctx.trigger);
+    console.log(ctx.block.number, ctx.transaction.id);
+    if (ctx.transfer) {
+        console.log(ctx.transfer.amount, ctx.transfer.asset);
+    }
+});
+```
+
+---
+
+## Payload Validation (Zod)
+
+Use Zod to validate payloads and enforce strong inputs:
+
+```ts
+import { z } from 'zod';
+
+const schema = z.object({
+    amount: z.string().min(1),
+    to: z.string().min(1)
+});
+
+const MyContract = defineContract({
+    name: 'payments',
+    actions: {
+        send: action((payload, ctx) => {
+            // payload is validated here
+        }, { schema, trigger: 'custom_json' })
+    }
+});
+```
+
+If validation fails, the action is not executed and the error is logged.
+
+---
+
+## Triggers
+
+Actions can be scoped to a trigger:
+
+- `custom_json`: called when a custom JSON payload matches
+- `transfer`: called when a transfer memo matches
+- `time`: called by a `TimeAction`
+- `escrow_transfer`: called when escrow transfer payload in `json_meta` matches
+- `escrow_approve`: available as a trigger for escrow-related contracts
+- `escrow_dispute`: available as a trigger for escrow-related contracts
+- `escrow_release`: available as a trigger for escrow-related contracts
+- `recurrent_transfer`: called when recurrent transfer memo payload matches
+
+```ts
+action(handler, { trigger: 'transfer' });
+```
+
+You can also allow multiple triggers:
+
+```ts
+action(handler, { trigger: ['custom_json', 'transfer'] });
+```
+
+---
+
+## Active Key Enforcement
+
+Some actions should only run when the transaction is signed with an active key. Mark them with:
+
+```ts
+action(handler, { trigger: 'custom_json', requiresActiveKey: true });
+```
+
+This prevents posting-key JSONs from triggering sensitive actions like withdrawals.
+
+---
+
+## Error Handling
+
+- Errors inside contract actions are caught and logged.
+- **Time actions** bubble errors back into the scheduler so the action does **not** increment execution count if it fails.
+
+Write actions defensively and always validate inputs.
+
+---
+
+## Time-Based Actions
+
+Time-based actions let you run contract logic on a schedule:
+
+```ts
+import { TimeAction } from 'hive-stream';
+
+const matchAction = new TimeAction('30s', 'exchange-matcher', 'exchange', 'matchOrders', { limit: 50 });
+await streamer.registerAction(matchAction);
+```
+
+The action must have `trigger: 'time'` in its definition.
+
+---
+
+## Adapter Requirements
+
+Contracts can use any adapter, but some require SQL features:
+
+- **SQL adapters** (SQLite/Postgres) support `adapter.query(...)`.
+- **MongoDB adapter** does not support raw SQL.
+
+If a contract uses `adapter.query`, it must document that it requires a SQL adapter.
+
+---
+
+## Building Contracts Step-by-Step
+
+1. **Define the contract** with `defineContract`.
+2. **Define actions** with `action`, specifying trigger and optional schema.
+3. **Use hooks** (`create`, `destroy`) to initialize tables or cache configuration.
+4. **Validate input** using Zod.
+5. **Use `ctx`** for block/transaction context.
+6. **Return void** (actions are fire-and-forget).
+7. **Register the contract** with the streamer.
+
+---
+
+## Example Contract
+
+```ts
+import { defineContract, action } from 'hive-stream';
+import { z } from 'zod';
+
+const tipSchema = z.object({
+    message: z.string().max(280).optional()
+});
+
+export const TipJar = defineContract({
+    name: 'tipjar',
+    actions: {
+        tip: action(async (payload, ctx) => {
+            if (!ctx.transfer) {
+                throw new Error('Transfer context required');
+            }
+
+            console.log(`Tip from ${ctx.sender}: ${ctx.transfer.amount} ${ctx.transfer.asset}`);
+            if (payload.message) {
+                console.log(`Message: ${payload.message}`);
+            }
+        }, {
+            schema: tipSchema,
+            trigger: 'transfer'
+        })
+    }
+});
+```
+
+---
+

+## Exchange Contract Guide
+
+The exchange contract gives you a basic on-chain orderbook experience backed by a SQL adapter.
+
+### Features
+- Deposits via transfer memo
+- Internal balances (available + locked)
+- Order placement and cancellation
+- Order matching
+- Withdrawals (active key required)
+- Internal transfers between exchange users
+- Maker/taker fees (basis points)
+- Order book snapshots for API consumption
+
+### Notes
+- Requires a SQL adapter (SQLite or Postgres).

+
+### Configuration Options
+```
+createExchangeContract({
+  name: 'exchange',
+  account: 'my-exchange',
+  feeAccount: 'my-exchange-fees',
+  makerFeeBps: 10,
