# Global Standards

## Logging
Import `createLogger` from `@sim/logger`. Use `logger.info`, `logger.warn`, `logger.error` instead of `console.log`. Inside API routes wrapped with `withRouteHandler`, loggers automatically include the request ID.

## API Route Handlers
All API route handlers must be wrapped with `withRouteHandler` from `@/lib/core/utils/with-route-handler`. Never export a bare `async function GET/POST/...` — always use `export const METHOD = withRouteHandler(...)`.

## Comments
Use TSDoc for documentation. No `====` separators. No non-TSDoc comments.

## Styling
Never update global styles. Keep all styling local to components.

## ID Generation
Never use `crypto.randomUUID()`, `nanoid`, or the `uuid` package directly. Use the utilities from `@sim/utils/id`:

- `generateId()` — UUID v4, use by default
- `generateShortId(size?)` — short URL-safe ID (default 21 chars), for compact identifiers

Both use `crypto.getRandomValues()` under the hood and work in all contexts including non-secure (HTTP) browsers.

```typescript
// ✗ Bad
import { nanoid } from 'nanoid'
import { v4 as uuidv4 } from 'uuid'
const id = crypto.randomUUID()

// ✓ Good
import { generateId, generateShortId } from '@sim/utils/id'
const uuid = generateId()
const shortId = generateShortId()
const tiny = generateShortId(8)
```

## Common Utilities
Use shared helpers from `@sim/utils` instead of writing inline implementations:

- `sleep(ms)` from `@sim/utils/helpers` — async delay. Never write `new Promise(resolve => setTimeout(resolve, ms))`
- `toError(value)` from `@sim/utils/errors` — normalize unknown caught values to `Error`. Never write `e instanceof Error ? e : new Error(String(e))`
- `getErrorMessage(value, fallback?)` from `@sim/utils/errors` — extract error message string. Never write `e instanceof Error ? e.message : 'fallback'`
- `structuredClone(value)` — built-in deep clone, no import needed. Never write `JSON.parse(JSON.stringify(obj))`
- `omit(obj, keys)` from `@sim/utils/object` — remove keys from object
- `filterUndefined(obj)` from `@sim/utils/object` — strip undefined-valued keys. Never write `Object.fromEntries(Object.entries(obj).filter(([, v]) => v !== undefined))`
- `truncate(str, maxLength, suffix?)` from `@sim/utils/string` — safe string truncation with ellipsis
- `backoffWithJitter(attempt, retryAfterMs, options?)` from `@sim/utils/retry` — exponential backoff with jitter
- `parseRetryAfter(header)` from `@sim/utils/retry` — parse HTTP `Retry-After` header to milliseconds

```typescript
// ✗ Bad
await new Promise(resolve => setTimeout(resolve, 1000))
const msg = error instanceof Error ? error.message : 'Unknown error'
const clone = JSON.parse(JSON.stringify(obj))
const filtered = Object.fromEntries(Object.entries(obj).filter(([, v]) => v !== undefined))

// ✓ Good
import { sleep } from '@sim/utils/helpers'
import { getErrorMessage, toError } from '@sim/utils/errors'
import { filterUndefined } from '@sim/utils/object'
await sleep(1000)
const msg = getErrorMessage(error, 'Unknown error')
const clone = structuredClone(obj)
const filtered = filterUndefined(obj)
```

## Package Manager
Use `bun` and `bunx`, not `npm` and `npx`.
