+# QuotesDB Implementation Plan
+
+> **For Claude:** REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: Use superpowers:executing-plans to implement this plan task-by-task.
+
+**Goal:** Bootstrap the `quotesdb` service (Rust/Axum backend on Cloudflare Workers + Yew frontend on Cloudflare Pages), then orchestrate parallel agents to plan and implement the work.
+
+**Architecture:** Three-phase delivery: (0) design ✓, (1) 4 parallel planning agents ticket work in git worktrees, (2) 4 parallel implementation orchestrators dispatch sub-agents per ticket. Each subdomain (api, ui, tests, infra) lives in its own directory under `quotesdb/` as an independent Rust crate.
+
+**Tech Stack:** Rust, Axum, Tokio, workers-rs, SQLx, Turso (local) / Cloudflare D1 (prod), Yew, Trunk, OpenTofu, Cloudflare Workers + Pages
+
+---
+
+## Context
+
+A new `quotesdb` service is being added to the vibed mono-repo. The design was finalized in Phase 0. This plan covers:
+
+0. **Task 0:** Create nbd project ticket `quotesdb` (stop after this — user will trigger the rest)
+1. **Task 1:** Bootstrap directory structure and design doc
+2. **Task 2:** Phase 1 — dispatch 4 parallel planning agents (each in a git worktree) to create nbd tickets
+3. **Task 3:** Merge planning branches
+4. **Task 4:** Phase 2 — dispatch 4 parallel implementation orchestrators
+
+---
+
+## Finalized Design (Phase 0 Output)
+
+### Database Schema
+
+```sql
+CREATE TABLE quotes (
+  id         TEXT     PRIMARY KEY,   -- NanoID (~21 chars)
+  text       TEXT     NOT NULL,
+  author     TEXT     NOT NULL,
+  source     TEXT,                   -- optional: book, speech, etc.
+  date       TEXT,                   -- optional: ISO date YYYY-MM-DD
+  auth_code  TEXT     NOT NULL,      -- 4-word passphrase e.g. ocean-table-purple-storm
+  created_at DATETIME DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
+  updated_at DATETIME DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
+);
+
+CREATE TABLE quote_tags (
+  quote_id TEXT NOT NULL REFERENCES quotes(id) ON DELETE CASCADE,
+  tag      TEXT NOT NULL,
+  PRIMARY KEY (quote_id, tag)
+);
+```
+
+### API Endpoints
+
+| Method | Path | Description | Auth |
+|--------|------|-------------|------|
+| GET | `/api/` | OpenAPI spec (JSON) | None |
+| GET | `/api/quotes` | List quotes, 10/page. Query: `?page=N&author=X&tag=Y` | None |
+| GET | `/api/quotes/random` | Random quote | None |
+| GET | `/api/quotes/:id` | Get quote by NanoID | None |
+| PUT | `/api/quotes` | Create a quote | None (auth_code optional in body) |
+| POST | `/api/quotes/:id` | Update a quote | `X-Auth-Code` header |
+| DELETE | `/api/quotes/:id` | Delete a quote | `X-Auth-Code` header |
+
+**Note:** `GET /api/quotes/random` must be registered BEFORE `GET /api/quotes/:id` in the router.
+
+### Request/Response Shapes
+
+**PUT /api/quotes** — Create
+```json
+// Request body (auth_code optional — generated if omitted)
+{
+  "text": "...",
+  "author": "...",
+  "source": "Stanford Commencement 2005",
+  "tags": ["motivation"],
+  "date": "2005-06-12",
+  "auth_code": "ocean-table-purple-storm"
+}
+
+// Response 201
+{
+  "quote": { "id": "V1StG...", "text": "...", "author": "...", ... },
+  "auth_code": "ocean-table-purple-storm"
+}
+```
+
+**GET /api/quotes** — List
+```json
+{
+  "quotes": [...],
+  "page": 1,
+  "total_pages": 4,
+  "total_count": 38
+}
+```
+
+**Error responses:** `{ "error": "message" }` with appropriate HTTP status.
+
+### Auth
+
+- No user accounts. Each quote has an `auth_code` (4-word passphrase).
+- Auth codes are stored **plaintext**.
+- Provided via `X-Auth-Code` header for update/delete.
+- On mismatch: `403 Forbidden`.
+- Auth code is always returned in the create response.
+
+### Frontend Pages (Yew)
+
+| Route | Page |
+|-------|------|
+| `/` | Home — random quote + "Browse all" link |
+| `/browse` | Paginated list with author/tag filter controls |
+| `/quotes/:id` | Single quote — view, edit (auth prompt), delete (auth prompt) |
+| `/author/:name` | All quotes by an author |
+| `/submit` | New quote form |
+

+
+## Task 1: Bootstrap Project Structure
+
+**Step 1: Create the quotesdb branch**
+```bash
+git checkout -b quotesdb
+```
+
+**Step 2: Create directory skeleton**
+
+```

+
+**Step 3: Write design doc**
+
+Write the finalized design (from this plan's "Finalized Design" section) to `quotesdb/docs/plans/2026-02-27-quotesdb-design.md`.
+
+**Step 4: Stub Cargo.toml files**
+
+`quotesdb/api/Cargo.toml`:
+```toml
+[package]
+name = "quotesdb-api"
+version = "0.1.0"
+edition = "2021"
+license = "MIT OR Apache-2.0"
+
+[dependencies]
+common = { path = "../../common" }
+
+[profile.release]
+opt-level = "z"
+lto = true
+strip = true
+codegen-units = 1
+```
+
+`quotesdb/ui/Cargo.toml`:
+```toml
+[package]
+name = "quotesdb-ui"
+version = "0.1.0"
+edition = "2021"
+license = "MIT OR Apache-2.0"
+
+[dependencies]
+common = { path = "../../common" }
+
+[profile.release]
+opt-level = "z"
+lto = true
+strip = true
+codegen-units = 1
+```
+
+`quotesdb/tests/Cargo.toml`:
+```toml
+[package]
+name = "quotesdb-tests"
+version = "0.1.0"
+edition = "2021"
+license = "MIT OR Apache-2.0"
+```
+
+**Step 5: Commit skeleton**
+```bash
+git add quotesdb/
+git commit -m "chore(quotesdb): bootstrap project skeleton and design doc"
+```
+
+---
+
+## Task 2: Phase 1 — Parallel Planning Agents
+
+> **Required skill:** Use `superpowers:dispatching-parallel-agents` before dispatching.
+
+Dispatch 4 agents IN PARALLEL (single message, 4 Task tool calls). Each works in a dedicated git worktree on its own branch. Each agent's job is to:
+
+1. Explore the design doc at `quotesdb/docs/plans/2026-02-27-quotesdb-design.md`
+2. Plan their domain thoroughly
+3. Create nbd tickets for every piece of work in their domain
+4. Commit their tickets on their branch
+
+The nbd tool is available in the devshell. Tickets live in `.nbd/tickets/`. Use `nbd` to create and manage tickets.
+
+### Agent 1: api-planner
+
+**Branch:** `quotesdb/api`
+**Directory:** `quotesdb/api/`
+
+**Prompt:**
+> You are a senior Rust backend engineer. Your job is to plan and ticket all backend API work for the `quotesdb` project.
+>
+> Read the design doc at `quotesdb/docs/plans/2026-02-27-quotesdb-design.md` for full context.
+>
+> The backend is:
+> - Rust, Axum, Tokio
+> - Target: Cloudflare Workers (workers-rs crate)
+> - Database: SQLx with Turso (local file-based SQLite) for dev, Cloudflare D1 in production
+> - Auto-generated OpenAPI spec required
+>
+> Create one nbd ticket per logical work item. Typical tickets include:
+> - Set up Cargo.toml with all dependencies
+> - Implement database migrations (schema creation)
+> - Implement each API endpoint (list, get, random, create, update, delete)
+> - Implement auth code generation (4-word passphrase)
+> - Implement NanoID generation for quote IDs
+> - Implement pagination logic
+> - Implement tag filtering (join with quote_tags)
+> - Implement OpenAPI spec generation
+> - Write unit tests for each handler
+> - Write README.md, PLANNING.md, ARCHITECTURE.md
+>
+> Work on branch `quotesdb/api` (use git worktrees). Each ticket should have enough detail for a developer to implement it independently.
+
+### Agent 2: ui-planner
+
+**Branch:** `quotesdb/ui`
+**Directory:** `quotesdb/ui/`
+
+**Prompt:**
+> You are a senior Rust frontend engineer with strong design sensibilities. Your job is to plan and ticket all frontend UI work for the `quotesdb` project.
+>
+> Read the design doc at `quotesdb/docs/plans/2026-02-27-quotesdb-design.md` for full context.
+>
+> The frontend is:
+> - Rust + Yew compiled to Wasm (wasm32-unknown-unknown)
+> - Build tool: Trunk (`trunk serve` for dev)
+> - Hosted on Cloudflare Pages
+>
+> Pages to build:
+> - `/` — Home: random quote of the day + "Browse all" link
+> - `/browse` — Paginated quote list with author/tag filter controls
+> - `/quotes/:id` — Single quote view + edit/delete forms (auth code prompt)
+> - `/author/:name` — All quotes by an author
+> - `/submit` — New quote submission form
+>
+> Create one nbd ticket per logical work item. Typical tickets include:
+> - Set up Cargo.toml and Trunk.toml with all dependencies
+> - Set up Yew app shell and routing
+> - Implement each page component
+> - Implement API client (fetch calls to backend)
+> - Implement auth code prompt/modal
+> - Implement pagination component
+> - Write README.md, PLANNING.md, ARCHITECTURE.md
+>
+> Work on branch `quotesdb/ui` (use git worktrees). Each ticket should have enough detail for a developer to implement it independently.
+
+### Agent 3: qa-planner
+
+**Branch:** `quotesdb/qa`
+**Directory:** `quotesdb/tests/`
+
+**Prompt:**
+> You are a senior QA engineer specializing in Rust integration testing. Your job is to plan and ticket all integration test work for the `quotesdb` project.
+>
+> Read the design doc at `quotesdb/docs/plans/2026-02-27-quotesdb-design.md` for full context.
+>
+> Integration tests live in `quotesdb/tests/` as a separate Rust crate. Tests should:
+> - Spin up the API server with an in-memory SQLite database
+> - Make real HTTP requests to test each endpoint
+> - Verify correct behavior for happy paths and error cases
+>
+> Create one nbd ticket per logical test suite. Typical tickets include:
+> - Set up test harness (test server, in-memory DB)
+> - Test quote creation (valid body, auth code generation, auth code provided by user)
+> - Test quote retrieval (by ID, not found)
+> - Test quote listing (pagination, author filter, tag filter)
+> - Test random quote endpoint
+> - Test quote update (valid auth, wrong auth, not found)
+> - Test quote deletion (valid auth, wrong auth, not found)
+> - Test OpenAPI spec endpoint
+> - Write README.md
+>
+> Work on branch `quotesdb/qa` (use git worktrees). Each ticket should have enough detail for a developer to implement it independently.
+
+### Agent 4: infra-planner
+
+**Branch:** `quotesdb/infra`
+**Directory:** `quotesdb/infra/`
+
+**Prompt:**
+> You are a Terraform/OpenTofu expert. Your job is to plan and ticket all infrastructure work for the `quotesdb` project.
+>
+> Read the design doc at `quotesdb/docs/plans/2026-02-27-quotesdb-design.md` for full context.
+>
+> Infrastructure uses OpenTofu with the Cloudflare provider. Resources needed:
+> - Cloudflare Worker for the backend API
+> - Cloudflare D1 database (bound to the worker)
+> - Cloudflare Pages project for the frontend
+> - Custom domain: `quotes.elijah.run` for the frontend
+>
+> Create one nbd ticket per logical work item. Typical tickets include:
+> - Set up OpenTofu project (providers, state backend)
+> - Define Cloudflare Worker resource and build config
+> - Define Cloudflare D1 database resource and binding
+> - Define Cloudflare Pages project with custom domain
+> - Write README.md for infra setup instructions
+>
+> Work on branch `quotesdb/infra` (use git worktrees). Each ticket should have enough detail for a developer to implement it independently.
+

+
+## Task 3: Merge Planning Branches
+
+After all 4 Phase 1 agents complete:
+
+**Step 1: Review tickets from each branch**
+```bash
+git log quotesdb/api --oneline
+git log quotesdb/ui --oneline
+git log quotesdb/qa --oneline
+git log quotesdb/infra --oneline
+```
+
+**Step 2: Merge all planning branches into `quotesdb`**
+```bash
+git checkout quotesdb
+git merge quotesdb/api
+git merge quotesdb/ui
+git merge quotesdb/qa
+git merge quotesdb/infra
+```
+
+**Step 3: Resolve any conflicts, commit**
+
+---
+
+## Task 4: Phase 2 — Parallel Implementation Orchestrators
+
+> **Required skill:** Use `superpowers:dispatching-parallel-agents` before dispatching.
+
+Dispatch 4 orchestrator agents IN PARALLEL. Each orchestrator:
+1. Lists all tickets for their domain
+2. Dispatches a fresh sub-agent per ticket (one at a time — complete one before starting the next)
+3. Reviews the sub-agent's work after each ticket
+4. Continues to the next ticket
+
+### Implementation agent instructions (for each domain):
+
+Each orchestrator should prompt its sub-agents with:
+- Full design context from `quotesdb/docs/plans/2026-02-27-quotesdb-design.md`
+- The specific ticket to implement
+- Validation commands to run: `cargo fmt && cargo check && cargo clippy && cargo test`
+- Conventional commit format: `feat(quotesdb-api): ...`
+
+### Domain orchestrators:
+
+**api-orchestrator** — works in `quotesdb/api/`, dispatches 1 sub-agent per api ticket
+**ui-orchestrator** — works in `quotesdb/ui/`, dispatches 1 sub-agent per ui ticket
+**qa-orchestrator** — works in `quotesdb/tests/`, dispatches 1 sub-agent per qa ticket
+**infra-orchestrator** — works in `quotesdb/infra/`, dispatches 1 sub-agent per infra ticket
+
+> **Note:** api and tests must share an API contract. If the api-orchestrator makes endpoint changes, update the design doc and notify the qa-orchestrator.
+
+---
+
+## Verification
+
+After Phase 2 completes:
+
+**Backend:**
+```bash
+cd quotesdb/api
+cargo fmt && cargo check && cargo clippy && cargo test
+cargo run   # starts local server
+```
+
+**Frontend:**
+```bash
+cd quotesdb/ui
+trunk serve   # starts dev server at localhost:8080
+```
+
+**Integration tests:**
+```bash
+cd quotesdb/tests
+cargo test
+```
+
+**Infrastructure:**
+```bash
+cd quotesdb/infra
+tofu plan   # dry-run Cloudflare infra
+```
+
+**Manual smoke test:**
+```bash
+# Create a quote
+curl -X PUT http://localhost:8787/api/quotes \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{"text":"Hello world","author":"Test"}'
+
+# List quotes
+curl http://localhost:8787/api/quotes
+
+# Random quote
+curl http://localhost:8787/api/quotes/random
+```
