Python Web

Use for Python/SSR-first websites, landings, booking/order/catalog/admin systems, dashboards, BFFs, and small productized business apps. Local-business projects are a primary use case, not the skill name/boundary.

Prefer server-rendered HTML with FastAPI + Jinja2. Use HTMX for partial forms/updates and Alpine.js for tiny client-side state only when they simplify UX. Do not turn this into a React/TS-first app unless explicitly requested.

Triggers

• build/plan a Python FastAPI/Jinja2 site/app
• create a landing, small catalog/commerce, booking, ordering, dashboard, CRM/leads, cash-flow, or admin system
• scope a sellable web package from public/user-provided business data
• design FastAPI routes, Jinja templates, forms, SQLModel/Alembic persistence, auth/admin boundaries
• implement with uv, Tailwind, pytest, ruff, ty

Boundary

Covers:

• public-data discovery, brief, scope, project state, route map, template map, data model, form contracts
• FastAPI, Jinja2, Tailwind, HTMX/Alpine optional, Pydantic, SQLModel, Alembic
• SQLite local, PostgreSQL/Supabase/managed Postgres production
• responsive UI, accessibility, tests, deployment readiness

Excludes:

• frontend-heavy React/Next.js/SPAs by default
• fake reviews, spam, ToS bypass, private scraping
• sensitive medical records or unnecessary personal data
• enterprise architecture unless explicitly required

Stack

Default unless repo already has compatible Python conventions:

• Python 3.12+, uv
• FastAPI, Uvicorn, Jinja2
• Tailwind CSS; HTMX optional for partial updates/forms; Alpine.js optional for tiny state
• Pydantic validation; SQLModel ORM/models; Alembic migrations
• SQLite local; PostgreSQL/Supabase/Neon/Railway Postgres in production when needed
• Session-based admin auth by default; external auth only when required
• pytest, ruff format/check, ty check

Avoid Celery, Redis, React, GraphQL, or complex frontend build systems unless the requirement truly demands it.

Product Profiles

Pick one primary profile; list secondary modules separately.

| Profile | Use when | Core scope | | -------------------- | ---------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------- | | static-site | presence/content | pages, SEO, CTA, contact, map/social | | conversion-landing | one offer/campaign | offer, proof, FAQ, lead form, WhatsApp/events | | booking-system | appointments | services, availability, booking, admin status | | ordering-system | food/service orders | menu, cart, customer info, WhatsApp/admin hand | | catalog-commerce | products/light commerce | catalog, search, cart intent, admin catalog | | admin-dashboard | internal ops/cash-flow/leads | CRUD, summaries, filters, export, permissions | | custom-ops | specific workflow | domain model + one vertical slice |

Reference Map

• Research/business facts/sales positioning: references/discovery.md
• Package/module selection: references/product-catalog.md
• Routes, templates, DB, migrations, auth, deployment: references/architecture.md
• Coding workflow/patterns: references/implementation.md
• Final verification: references/checklists.md

Workflow

1. Inspect repo: uv/pyproject, scripts, FastAPI app, routes, templates, DB, migrations, tests. Reuse conventions.
2. Build Business Brief if business context matters: confirmed facts, user facts, assumptions, unknowns, goals.
3. Choose profile/package; define MVP, phase 2, out of scope.
4. Produce/update project state before nontrivial code:
   • SPEC.md
   • DESIGN.md
   • TODO.md
   • .spec/state.md
   • .spec/handoff.md
   • .mem/open-loops.md
5. Define route map, template map, flows, entities/tables, form contracts, auth/deployment assumptions, acceptance criteria.
6. Implement one vertical slice first: schema/model -> migration -> service -> FastAPI route -> Jinja page/partial -> validation states -> tests -> docs.
7. Validate with repo scripts; prefer uv run ruff format --check ., uv run ruff check ., uv run ty check, uv run pytest; for DB, uv run alembic upgrade head.

Architecture Defaults

Simple app:

app/{main.py,core,routes,templates,static,components,services}

Persisted/admin system:

app/
  main.py
  core/{config.py,security.py,templates.py}
  db/{session.py,models.py}
  features/{public,admin,bookings,orders,catalog,cashflow}
  templates/{layouts,pages,partials,components}
  static/{css,js}
  tests/
alembic/versions/

Dependency direction:

routes -> services -> db/session/models
routes -> templates
services -> db/session/models
models -> no routes/templates imports
templates -> no business logic

Keep business rules testable; IO/framework/provider code stays at edges.

Output

Planning responses include: summary, package/profile, MVP, phase 2, out of scope, route map, template map, data model, architecture, checklist, risks/questions, and state files updated.

Implementation responses include: files changed, behavior added, validation run, assumptions/remaining confirmations, and state updates when decisions or next steps changed.
