NOTE: The "Ethereal Glass" dark design previously described here was reverted. The live app uses the light "Field Manual" system below.
Element
Spec
Background
Warm off-white (#FAFAF7) with subtle grain/border texture
Vitest — tests colocated in __tests__/ mirroring src/ structure
Prisma — generate client on postinstall
Path aliases — @/ maps to src/
Custom design tokens — defined in Tailwind config, not arbitrary values
Package manager — Use Bun exclusively (bun.lock, not npm package-lock.json)
Guardrails
DO NOT
❌ Commit .env or secrets
❌ Use thick-stroked icons (Phosphor weight="light" always)
❌ Add dependencies without checking if 50 lines of custom code suffice
❌ Skip Prisma generate after schema changes
❌ Use Inter/Roboto fonts
❌ Scatter AI prompts across components (keep in src/lib/)
DO
✅ Use Space Grotesk for headings, Plus Jakarta Sans for body
✅ Run bun run test before PRs
✅ Run bun run build before deploy
✅ Keep AI prompts centralized in src/lib/
✅ Document new env vars
✅ Add truthfulness warnings on AI-generated resume/coach content
