Agent Development Guide

Development Environment

This project uses:

  • mise (mise.jdx.dev) - tool version manager and task runner
  • hk (hk.jdx.dev) - git hook manager
  • uv - fast Python package installer
  • ruff - linter and formatter
  • pytest - test runner

Setup

# Install dependencies
mise run install

# Or equivalently:
uv sync

Available Commands

mise run test       # Run tests
mise run test-v     # Run tests verbose
mise run test-cov   # Run tests with coverage report
mise run lint       # Run ruff linter
mise run lint-fix   # Run ruff with auto-fix
mise run format     # Run ruff formatter
mise run ci         # Full CI pipeline (sync + test + coverage)

Git Hooks

At the start of every agent session, verify hooks are installed:

ls -la .git/hooks/pre-commit

If hooks are not installed, install them with:

hk init --mise
mise run pre-commit

The project uses hk configured in hk.pkl:

  • pre-commit: runs ruff-format and ruff (with auto-fix)
  • pre-push: runs ruff check

Workflow Rules

Before Committing

  1. Always run the test suite - never commit code that fails tests:

    mise run test
    
  2. Always run the linter:

    mise run lint
    
  3. Fix any lint errors before committing (or let the pre-commit hook handle it).

  4. Review your changes using git diff to understand what will be committed.

On Failing Tests

When tests fail, determine whether it's an out-of-date test or a correctly failing test:

  • Out-of-date test: The test was written for old behavior that has legitimately changed. Update the test to match the new expected behavior.

  • Correctly failing test: The test correctly identifies a broken contract. Fix the implementation, not the test.

Never modify a test to make it pass without understanding why it failed.

Code Review

Before committing significant changes:

  • Run git diff to review all changes
  • Ensure new code follows existing patterns in the codebase
  • Check that type hints are added for new functions
  • Verify that tests exist for new functionality

Testing

Tests live in tests/ and follow the pattern test_*.py.

Run all tests:

mise run test

Run with coverage:

mise run test-cov

The project uses pytest with strict marker enforcement. Test configuration is in pyproject.toml under [tool.pytest.ini_options].

Architecture Notes

  • ntfy.py and mic.py are standalone modules with zero internal dependencies
  • eventbus.py provides thread-safe event publishing for decoupled communication
  • controller.py coordinates ntfy/mic monitoring
  • The render pipeline: fetch → render → effects → scroll → terminal output
