control-kody

Do not invent a throwaway curl script, scrape PR comments by hand, or rediscover account routes from routes.ts. Use the CLI and the Feature Map.

node tools/control-kody.ts doctor
node tools/control-kody.ts dev
node tools/control-kody.ts login
node tools/control-kody.ts request GET /account/waiting.json
node tools/control-kody.ts map waiting
node tools/control-kody.ts health --sha <merge-sha>
node tools/control-kody.ts preview -- --request 'GET /account/waiting.json' --check /account/waiting
node tools/control-kody.ts package-create --origin <preview> --package-name <leaf-or-@scope/leaf> [--head-ahead]

--kody-id is an alias for --package-name. npm run control-kody -- <command> is the same entry.

Feature Map

references/features/README.md is the human-readable index. tools/control-kody/feature-catalog.ts is the machine-readable source. map --check (and its node test) fail when a listed path leaves routes.ts or a required HTML route has no entry.

Load one feature file for the surface you are changing.

Seed users

• Local: jane@example.com / ilikecode (non-admin)
• Preview: me@kentcdodds.com / ilikecode (non-admin, empty until you create data through JSON APIs, or package-create for a saved package)
• /admin 403 and /mcp 401 are expected for those seeds

Proof

CI green is not enough for a user-visible account change. Prefer:

1. doctor then dev or preview
2. request / --check as the seed user with data for this change
3. A computerUse video or screenshot of the same page
4. After merge, health --origin https://kody.codes --sha <merge> (full SHA, unique short SHA, or a later descendant HEAD that contains the merge)
