title: Recursive code workspace (~/Code @org tree)
scope: general
status: active
summary: ~/Code is a recursive tree of @org dirs, each holding many independent git repos; tools and agents resolve projects by walking it.
params:
  - name: root
    description: Workspace root to walk.
    default: "~/Code"
appliesTo: ["~/Code/**"]
rules:
  - id: orgs
    level: must
    text: >
      Top-level @org dirs partition the workspace: @applications (apps/services you
      operate), @projects (platforms incl. @cocottetech, @magic-civilization, @lilith),
      @packages (shared libraries), @conventions (this repo), plus support buckets
      @scripts / @docs / @forks / @external / @archives / @work.
  - id: independent_repos
    level: must
    text: Each project under an @org is its own independent git repo. Never assume a single monorepo at the root.
    rationale: Repos are cloned/forge-managed per-project; cross-repo coupling is HTTP/registry, not filesystem.
  - id: per_project_infra
    level: should
    text: A deployable project owns its infra via a root .infra.yaml (see convention:infra-manifest). Shared infra (e.g. the managed PG cluster) is data-sourced, not owned per-project.
    rationale: Catch-all shared infra repos (uvlava-style) are superseded by per-project ownership.
  - id: support_buckets
    level: may
    text: Cross-cutting or transient items live in the support buckets, not inside project repos.
