# Project Rules

## General Development

- **NEVER** commit or push without explicit confirmation

## Build and Lint

- **ALWAYS** run `npm run lint` after modifying TypeScript or JavaScript files
- Run `npm run bootstrap` after changing plugin runtime or MCP server code

## Plugin System

### Backend Constraints

- Always use `UpdateSource::Plugin` when calling database methods from plugin events
- Never send timestamps (`createdAt`, `updatedAt`) from TypeScript - Rust backend controls these
- Backend uses `NaiveDateTime` (no timezone) so avoid sending ISO timestamp strings

### MCP Server

- MCP server has **no active window context** - cannot call `window.workspaceId()`
- Get workspace ID from `workspaceCtx.yaak.workspace.list()` instead

## Rust Type Generation

- Run `cargo test --package yaak-plugins` (and for other crates) to regenerate TypeScript bindings after modifying Rust event types
