Digital Production Factory 276ed71f31 Initial commit: Clean DSS implementation
Migrated from design-system-swarm with fresh git history.
Old project history preserved in /home/overbits/apps/design-system-swarm

Core components:
- MCP Server (Python FastAPI with mcp 1.23.1)
- Claude Plugin (agents, commands, skills, strategies, hooks, core)
- DSS Backend (dss-mvp1 - token translation, Figma sync)
- Admin UI (Node.js/React)
- Server (Node.js/Express)
- Storybook integration (dss-mvp1/.storybook)

Self-contained configuration:
- All paths relative or use DSS_BASE_PATH=/home/overbits/dss
- PYTHONPATH configured for dss-mvp1 and dss-claude-plugin
- .env file with all configuration
- Claude plugin uses ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} for portability

DSS Context Map - Read This First

CRITICAL FOR AI AGENTS: This file maps the entire DSS documentation hierarchy. Read this first when starting a new session to understand where information lives.

📘 TIER 1: Foundational Contracts (Always Loaded)

These files define the immutable contracts and philosophy of DSS. They change only through semantic versioning.

System Architecture

  • File: docs/01_core/ARCHITECTURE.md
  • Contains: System design, component boundaries, technology stack
  • Updated When: Major architectural decisions are made

API Contracts

  • File: docs/01_core/API_CONTRACTS.md
  • Contains: Complete API specification, endpoint contracts, error codes
  • Updated When: New endpoints added or contracts change

Design System Philosophy

  • File: docs/01_core/PRINCIPLES.md
  • Contains: Core principles, design philosophy, development values
  • Updated When: Core philosophy evolves

📊 TIER 2: Current State (Always Loaded)

These files reflect the current state of the system in production.

Project Status

  • File: docs/02_status/PROJECT_STATUS.md
  • Contains: Deployment status, active bugs, roadmap

Implementation Summary

  • File: docs/02_status/IMPLEMENTATION_SUMMARY.md
  • Contains: What has been built (phases 1-5C)

Project Overview

  • File: README.md (in root)
  • Contains: Quick start, project description

📖 TIER 3: Reference Guides (Load as Needed)

  • Integration: docs/03_reference/INTEGRATION_GUIDE.md
  • Migration: docs/03_reference/MIGRATION_GUIDE.md
  • MCP Tools: docs/03_reference/MCP_TOOLS_SPEC.md
  • Production: docs/03_reference/PRODUCTION_READINESS.md

📦 TIER 4: Historical Archive

Location: docs/archive/pre_optimization/

Do NOT load these for normal work. These are historical snapshots from past phases.


🎯 Core Principles

  1. Single Source of Truth - Each concept documented once
  2. Foundational Contracts - API specs and principles are immutable
  3. Current State Transparency - Status always reflects production
  4. Progressive Detail - Quick ref → guides → specs
  5. Phase Agnostic - Docs independent of dev phases
  6. Knowledge Persistence - Deep context in .knowledge/ graph
  7. MCP First - Design system tools are first-class citizens
