Intermediate (Dynamic) Skill

Actions

init (Project Initialization)

1. Create Next.js + Tailwind project structure
2. Configure bkend.ai MCP (.mcp.json)
3. Create CLAUDE.md (Level: Dynamic specified)
4. Create docs/ folder structure
5. src/lib/bkend.ts client template
6. Initialize the pipeline store — writeBkitMemory() in lib/pdca/status.js, which writes .bkit/state/memory.json (the migrated path of .bkit-memory.json). This holds the project level and the 9-phase pipelineStatus, read by the pipeline Stop hooks for phases 5, 6 and 9. It is NOT where the PDCA phase lives — that is .bkit/state/pdca-status.json.

Core Patterns

bkend.ai Client Setup

// lib/bkend.ts - REST Service API Client
const API_BASE = process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_BKEND_API_URL || 'https://api.bkend.ai/v1';
const PROJECT_ID = process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_BKEND_PROJECT_ID!;
const ENVIRONMENT = process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_BKEND_ENV || 'dev';

async function bkendFetch(path: string, options: RequestInit = {}) {
  const token = localStorage.getItem('bkend_access_token');
  const res = await fetch(`${API_BASE}${path}`, {
    ...options,
    headers: {
      'Content-Type': 'application/json',
      'x-project-id': PROJECT_ID,
      'x-environment': ENVIRONMENT,
      ...(token && { Authorization: `Bearer ${token}` }),
      ...options.headers,
    },
  });
  if (!res.ok) throw new Error(await res.text());
  return res.json();
}

export const bkend = {
  auth: {
    signup: (body: {email: string; password: string}) => bkendFetch('/auth/email/signup', {method: 'POST', body: JSON.stringify(body)}),
    signin: (body: {email: string; password: string}) => bkendFetch('/auth/email/signin', {method: 'POST', body: JSON.stringify(body)}),
    me: () => bkendFetch('/auth/me'),
    refresh: (refreshToken: string) => bkendFetch('/auth/refresh', {method: 'POST', body: JSON.stringify({refreshToken})}),
    signout: () => bkendFetch('/auth/signout', {method: 'POST'}),
  },
  data: {
    list: (table: string, params?: Record<string,string>) => bkendFetch(`/data/${table}?${new URLSearchParams(params)}`),
    get: (table: string, id: string) => bkendFetch(`/data/${table}/${id}`),
    create: (table: string, body: any) => bkendFetch(`/data/${table}`, {method: 'POST', body: JSON.stringify(body)}),
    update: (table: string, id: string, body: any) => bkendFetch(`/data/${table}/${id}`, {method: 'PATCH', body: JSON.stringify(body)}),
    delete: (table: string, id: string) => bkendFetch(`/data/${table}/${id}`, {method: 'DELETE'}),
  },
};

Authentication Hook

// hooks/useAuth.ts
import { create } from 'zustand';
import { persist } from 'zustand/middleware';
import { bkend } from '@/lib/bkend';

interface AuthState {
  user: User | null;
  isLoading: boolean;
  login: (email: string, password: string) => Promise<void>;
  logout: () => void;
}

export const useAuth = create<AuthState>()(
  persist(
    (set) => ({
      user: null,
      isLoading: false,

      login: async (email, password) => {
        set({ isLoading: true });
        const { user, token } = await bkend.auth.login({ email, password });
        set({ user, isLoading: false });
      },

      logout: () => {
        bkend.auth.logout();
        set({ user: null });
      },
    }),
    { name: 'auth-storage' }
  )
);

Data Fetching (TanStack Query)

// List query
const { data, isLoading, error } = useQuery({
  queryKey: ['items', filters],
  queryFn: () => bkend.collection('items').find(filters),
});

// Single item query
const { data: item } = useQuery({
  queryKey: ['items', id],
  queryFn: () => bkend.collection('items').findById(id),
  enabled: !!id,
});

// Create/Update (Mutation)
const mutation = useMutation({
  mutationFn: (newItem) => bkend.collection('items').create(newItem),
  onSuccess: () => {
    queryClient.invalidateQueries(['items']);
  },
});

Protected Route

// components/ProtectedRoute.tsx
'use client';

import { useAuth } from '@/hooks/useAuth';
import { redirect } from 'next/navigation';

export function ProtectedRoute({ children }: { children: React.ReactNode }) {
  const { user, isLoading } = useAuth();

  if (isLoading) return <LoadingSpinner />;
  if (!user) redirect('/login');

  return <>{children}</>;
}

Data Model Design Principles

// Base fields (auto-generated)
interface BaseDocument {
  _id: string;
  createdAt: Date;
  updatedAt: Date;
}

// User reference
interface Post extends BaseDocument {
  userId: string;        // Author ID (reference)
  title: string;
  content: string;
  tags: string[];        // Array field
  metadata: {            // Embedded object
    viewCount: number;
    likeCount: number;
  };
}

MCP Integration

Claude Code CLI (Recommended)

claude mcp add bkend --transport http https://api.bkend.ai/mcp

.mcp.json (Per Project)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "bkend": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://api.bkend.ai/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Authentication

• OAuth 2.1 + PKCE (browser auto-auth)
• No API Key/env vars needed
• First MCP request opens browser -> login to bkend console -> select Organization -> approve permissions
• Verify: "Show my bkend projects"

## Environment Variables (.env.local)

NEXT_PUBLIC_BKEND_API_URL=https://api.bkend.ai/v1 NEXT_PUBLIC_BKEND_PROJECT_ID=your-project-id NEXT_PUBLIC_BKEND_ENV=dev

Note: Project ID is found in bkend console (console.bkend.ai).
Via MCP: "Show my project list" -> backend_project_list

## Limitations

❌ Complex backend logic (serverless function limits) ❌ Large-scale traffic (within BaaS limits) ❌ Custom infrastructure control ❌ Microservices architecture

## When to Upgrade

Move to **Enterprise Level** if you need:

→ "Traffic will increase significantly" → "I want to split into microservices" → "I need my own server/infrastructure" → "I need complex backend logic"

## bkit Features for Dynamic Level (v1.5.1)

### Output Style: bkit-pdca-guide (Recommended)

For optimal PDCA workflow experience, activate the PDCA guide style:

/output-style bkit-pdca-guide

This provides:
- PDCA status badges showing current phase progress
- Gap analysis suggestions after code changes
- Automatic next-phase guidance with checklists

### Agent Teams (2 Teammates)

Dynamic projects support Agent Teams for parallel PDCA execution:

| Role | Agents | PDCA Phases |
|------|--------|-------------|
| developer | bkend-expert | Do, Act |
| qa | qa-monitor, gap-detector | Check |

**To enable:**
1. Set environment: `CLAUDE_CODE_EXPERIMENTAL_AGENT_TEAMS=1`
2. Start team mode: `/pdca team {feature}`
3. Monitor progress: `/pdca team status`

### Agent Memory (Auto-Active)

All bkit agents automatically remember project context across sessions.
No setup needed — agents use `project` scope memory for this codebase.

## Common Mistakes

| Mistake | Solution |
|---------|----------|
| CORS error | Register domain in bkend.ai console |
| 401 Unauthorized | Token expired, re-login or refresh token |
| Data not showing | Check collection name, query conditions |
| Type error | Sync TypeScript type definitions with schema |
