docs: add build + runtime network egress requirements
Lists the egress the build assumes (Go module proxy, toolchain download,
raw.githubusercontent for golangci-lint, github for non-proxied modules) and the
runtime assumes (LiteLLM gateway, brain-mcp, YouTube/Vimeo APIs, per-user BYO-AI
hosts only on opt-in), so a locked-down koala act_runner or dev env knows what to
allow or which GOPROXY to set. Notes the claude.ai sandbox allowlist is separate
and unrelated.

tapir

Watches a user's YouTube/Vimeo subscriptions and, when a subscribed channel posts a new video, summarizes it into highlights and takeaways using a local-first AI stack with an optional, per-user BYO-AI fallback. Standalone-first; feeding a personal knowledge base ("brain") is one optional sink, not the reason Tapir exists. Written in Go.

Status

Pre-code. The repository currently holds the guardrail documentation — vision, decisions, architecture, data model, and behavior specs — committed before implementation so the design intent is version-controlled and the build has something to be checked against.

Read these first (the guardrails)

Doc What it is
VISION.md Product vision, principles, and the staged Definition of Success. Stage 0 ("useful to me") is the gate before any multi-user work.
DECISIONS.md Architecture Decision Records (append-only). Why Go, why no Supabase, standalone-first, captions-first, etc.
docs/architecture/architecture.md C4 context + container diagrams, key sequence diagrams, and the Clean Architecture layering (Mermaid).
docs/data-model.md Entities and the per-user isolation model (Stage 0 / Stage 1 scope).
docs/use-cases/ Gherkin .feature files — the BDD behavior spec that seeds the test suite.

Approach

  • Clean Architecture / ports & adapters. A provider- and sink-agnostic engine depends only on interfaces (VideoSource, Summarizer, Sink, SecretStore). YouTube, Vimeo, the AI router, the user store, and the brain sink are adapters. "Standalone vs homelab" is a wiring choice, not two codebases.
  • TDD/BDD. The .feature files are the living behavior spec; the use-case core is tested through fake adapters. Behavior is specified as executable scenarios, not prose that drifts.
  • Trunk-Based Development. Commit directly to main, one logical change per commit, every commit deployable (see ADR-009). CI is the quality gate.

Conventions

Reuses homelab conventions: Go, Dex for identity, ESO + 1Password for secrets, Postgres for persistence. No new auth or secrets system (ADR-002).

Next

First implementation step: scaffold the Go service (engine + interfaces + the copied llm package), captions-first, with the store and brain sink adapters — decomposable into independent units suitable for a Claude Code swarm. Tracked as the first build issue.
