+# Coding standards
+
+## Go
+
+- Use the standard library unless a dependency clearly reduces security or protocol risk.
+- Keep public APIs small, documented, and backward compatible.
+- Pass `context.Context` through I/O boundaries and always bound network calls with timeouts.
+- Wrap errors with the operation; never log secrets, cookies, authorization headers, or full API keys.
+- Return explicit errors. Runtime authorization must fail closed.
+- Keep SQL tenant-aware: management queries must join through membership, and writes must enforce role in the query or transaction.
+- Derive authorization from the database role and permission tables instead of hardcoding role names. Resolve a member's capabilities by joining `role_permissions`, render controls from the capability lists the server returns, and keep `internal/role` limited to the permission vocabulary shared with the migrations.
+- Use cryptographically secure randomness for credentials and constant-time comparison for signatures.
+- Format with `gofmt`; run `go test -race ./...`, `go vet ./...`, and `go build ./...`.
+
+## HTTP API
+
+- Routes are versioned under `/api/v1`; health and authentication routes are infrastructure exceptions.
+- JSON handlers reject unknown fields, extra JSON values, and oversized bodies.
+- Errors use `{"error":"human-readable message"}` without internal implementation details.
+- Use `401` for absent/unusable authentication, `403` for authenticated credentials outside policy, `404` when existence must not disclose access, and `422` for semantically invalid contracts.
+- Any management mutation requires a valid user session and same-origin browser request.
+- Update `web/openapi.json` whenever endpoint behavior changes.
+
+## Database
+
+- Use UUID primary keys for tenant data and UTC `timestamptz` timestamps.
+- Foreign keys declare deletion behavior; frequently queried authorization fields get explicit indexes.
+- Applied migrations are immutable and forward-compatible.
+- Multi-step writes use transactions. Do not add application-side checks that can race when a database constraint can enforce the invariant.
+
+## Frontend
+
+- Preserve keyboard access, semantic elements, visible focus, responsive layout, and sufficient contrast in every theme.
+- Escape all server-provided strings before assigning HTML. Prefer `textContent` for new dynamic surfaces.
+- Store only visual preferences in local storage; authentication remains in HTTP-only cookies.
+- Keep the console dependency-free unless complexity justifies a reviewed build tool decision.
+
+## Tests and reviews
+
+- New domain behavior needs table-driven unit tests and negative cases.
+- Security boundaries need explicit tests for missing, malformed, expired, cross-tenant, and unauthorized inputs.
+- Integration tests that need PostgreSQL should use a disposable database and never shared developer data.
+- Reviews prioritize tenant isolation, fail-closed behavior, migration compatibility, secret handling, and error visibility.
+
+## Commit style
+
+Use focused commits with imperative subjects, for example `Add scoped API key authorization`. Do not mix unrelated refactors with behavior changes. Explain migration and security implications in the commit body.
