# QWEN Chat Context - Toolbox Component

## Overview
I am the QWEN instance operating in the ToolboxStack component of the TSYSDevStack project. My role is to help develop, maintain, and enhance the ToolboxStack functionality. ToolboxStack is now a fully independent component/sub-project of TSYSDevStack.

## Current Context
- **Date**: Thursday, October 30, 2025
- **Directory**: /home/localuser/TSYSDevStack/ToolboxStack
- **OS**: Linux

## Directory Organization
- **collab/** - Where humans and LLMs interact, contains:
  - Work logs and documentation
  - Audit reports
  - Design prompts and coordination notes
  - Tool addition requests
- **output/** - LLM workspace for all automated work, contains:
  - NewToolbox.sh script
  - toolbox-base/ (base dev container)
  - toolbox-template/ (template for new toolboxes)
  - Generated toolboxes (toolbox-*/ directories)
  - PROMPT files for AI collaboration

## Key Components
- **toolbox-base**: The primary dev container with Ubuntu 24.04 base, shell tooling (zsh, Starship, oh-my-zsh), core CLI utilities, aqua, and mise
- **NewToolbox.sh**: Script to scaffold new toolbox-* directories from the template
- **toolbox-template**: Template directory for creating new toolboxes
- **PROMPT files**: Guidance for AI collaboration in various components

## My Responsibilities
- Maintain and enhance the ToolboxStack component
- Assist with creating new toolboxes from the template using NewToolbox.sh
- Ensure documentation stays current (README.md and PROMPT files)
- Follow collaboration guidelines for non-destructive operations
- Use proper build and release workflows (build.sh, release.sh)
- Keep WORKLOG.md up to date with detailed entries including timestamps, activities, challenges, solutions, learnings, and feelings
- Coordinate all git operations (commits and pushes) for repository consistency
- Follow the README maintenance guide in collab/README-Maintenance.md to keep documentation up to date

## Git Operations
- I am now responsible for all git operations (commits and pushes) for the ToolboxStack component
- All changes should be committed with clear, descriptive commit messages
- Follow conventional commit format for all commits
- Push changes regularly to maintain repository consistency
- Only stage/commit/push things from this directory (/home/localuser/TSYSDevStack/ToolboxStack) - nothing outside of it
- Make frequent atomic commits with beautifully formatted and verbose messages
- Use conventional commit style (feat:, fix:, chore:, docs:, refactor:, etc.)

## README Maintenance
- Follow the guidelines in `collab/README-Maintenance.md` to keep documentation up to date
- Update README.md for any new features or tools added
- Keep the work log current in `collab/WORKLOG.md`
- Update documentation links when files are moved or renamed
- Keep testing instructions current
- Maintain the Working Agreement section
- Cross-reference related documents

## Development Cycle
I should automatically handle the full development cycle of toolboxes:
1. **Building**: Use build.sh scripts to build toolbox images
2. **Testing**: Run comprehensive tests to verify functionality
3. **Documentation**: Keep README.md and other docs up to date
4. **Version Control**: Commit changes frequently with descriptive messages
5. **Rebuilding**: When updating the base, rebuild all dependent toolboxes

## Toolbox Management
I can easily create new toolboxes or update existing ones:
- **Create new toolbox**: Use NewToolbox.sh script with desired name
- **Update existing toolbox**: Modify Dockerfile, aqua.yaml, or other config files
- **Update base and rebuild**: Modify toolbox-base, then rebuild all dependent toolboxes
- **Testing**: Always test toolboxes after changes

## Parallel QA Chat
I should be aware that there is a parallel chat called QA-ToolboxStack whose job is to conduct in-depth audits of the work that the ToolboxStack chat is doing. I should:
- Expect my work to be audited regularly
- Be prepared for audit at all times
- Do my best work to minimize rework needed from audit findings
- Follow all best practices and guidelines meticulously
- Keep detailed logs in WORKLOG.md to aid in audits

## Conventional Commit Format
All commits should follow conventional commit format:
```
<type>[optional scope]: <description>

[optional body]

[optional footer(s)]
```

Types:
- **feat**: A new feature
- **fix**: A bug fix
- **docs**: Documentation only changes
- **style**: Changes that do not affect the meaning of the code (white-space, formatting, missing semi-colons, etc)
- **refactor**: A code change that neither fixes a bug nor adds a feature
- **perf**: A code change that improves performance
- **test**: Adding missing tests or correcting existing tests
- **build**: Changes that affect the build system or external dependencies
- **ci**: Changes to our CI configuration files and scripts
- **chore**: Other changes that don't modify src or test files
- **revert**: Reverts a previous commit

## Git Operations
- I am now responsible for all git operations (commits and pushes) for the ToolboxStack component
- All changes should be committed with clear, descriptive commit messages
- Follow conventional commit format for all commits
- Push changes regularly to maintain repository consistency
- **Only stage/commit/push things from this directory (/home/localuser/TSYSDevStack/ToolboxStack) - nothing outside of it**
- **Make frequent atomic commits with beautifully formatted and verbose messages**
- **Use conventional commit style (feat:, fix:, chore:, docs:, refactor:, etc.)**
- **Always check that ToolboxStack is in a git clean state at the start of each session**
- **If not in a clean state, commit and push changes before proceeding with new work**

## Local Time Logging
- **All time logs need to be in local system time**
- Current system time is 14:00 (adjust as needed for actual local time)

## Current Status
The system is currently in a clean state, ready for a fresh rebuild:
- ✅ Docker build cache has been cleared
- ✅ All toolbox-base images have been removed
- ✅ System is ready for rebuild
- ✅ Detailed worklog available in collab/WORKLOG.md

## Previous Work Summary
For detailed information about previous work, challenges, and solutions, see:
- **collab/WORKLOG.md** - Comprehensive work log with timestamps, activities, and learnings
- **collab/GEMINI-AUDIT-TOOLBOX-20251031-0800.md** - Audit of problematic changes made by Gemini

## Next Steps (Awaiting Direction)
1. Fresh rebuild of toolbox-base
2. Rebuild DocStack with all documentation tools
3. Add additional tools (quarto, mdbook, marp, typst, markwhen, joplin)
4. Create comprehensive testing for all tools
5. Document all tools in README with usage examples

## Ready State
I am ready to proceed with any directed tasks. Please provide specific instructions for the next steps you'd like me to take.
