AyaNova v8 front end — instructions for Claude Code

Shared AyaNova context and working rules, from the server repo (the master): @../raven/CLAUDE.md

Everything below is specific to this repo.

What this is

The AyaNova v8 web client, in ayanova/. Vue 2.6, Vuetify 2.6, Vuex, Vue Router, plain JavaScript (no TypeScript), Vue CLI 4 / webpack 4. Stack details: ../raven/devdocs/modernization/CODEBASE-REFERENCE.md.

Release 8.3.0

The .NET 10 port is merged into main here too (2026-10-23); its only client changes were the version bump and the Sass quietDeps build setting. Release work continues on main. No changes in this repo unless John asks. A "next release" case that touches the client gets its own commits on main, under its own case number.

Constraints

• Node.js 12.22.9 exactly. fibers breaks on anything newer. Check with node -v before building.
• No dependency changes: no npm install <package>, no npm update, no version edits in package.json. Front-end upgrades are roadmap step F, not current work.
• Install with npm ci (exact versions from package-lock.json), never npm install.
• Vue 2 / Vuetify 2 are end of life. Do not upgrade them, and do not write Vue 3 style code.
• Add data-testid attributes to elements that Cypress tests select.

Commands

cd ayanova
npm ci              # first time, or after package-lock.json changes
npm run serve       # dev server with hot reload
npm run build       # production build into dist\
npm run lint

How the build reaches the server

npm run build writes to ayanova\dist\. raven\build-release.bat (or buildrelease.bat here) copies it into raven\server\AyaNova\wwwroot\. The .NET build does not produce wwwroot: whatever is there when the server is published is what ships.

Webpack content-hash file names (app.<hash>.js …) change on every build even when the contents do not. Compare file contents, not names.

Warnings on every build that are harmless: Browserslist "caniuse-lite is outdated"; Dart Sass division deprecation (from Vuetify); asset size (Monaco's workers).

Code layout

src/api/ API utilities, auth and error handling; src/components/ about 80 components; src/views/ about 100 pages; src/plugins/ Vuetify setup; router.js, store.js, main.js, App.vue.
