INCLUDED_MODULES

The starter is opinionated where it should be,and extensible where it matters.

This is not a demo landing page wrapped around empty routes. The major app surfaces already exist and share the same design system and data model.

Architecture

Next.js App Router foundation

Route groups, metadata helpers, loading states, error boundaries, and page conventions are already wired in the codebase.

Auth

Authentication and permissions

Better Auth sessions, guarded dashboard routes, role checks, and auth flows for login, signup, and magic-link style access.

Agents

Agent-ready API and CLI auth

API keys, CLI device login, refresh rotation, and versioned machine endpoints give scripts and agent (OpenClaw, Codex, Claude Code, etc.) access without reusing browser session cookies.

Compare API key, OAuth, and device auth

Monetization

Billing workflow

Creem checkout, customer portal handoff, webhook handling, and subscription records are connected end to end.

Build production Creem billing

Operations

Admin operations

User, payment, subscription, and upload management screens give you a working back office instead of an empty shell.

Data

Typed database layer

Drizzle models, query helpers, and server-side data access keep the app consistent without hand-written SQL scattered around the UI.

Storage

Direct and server uploads

Cloudflare R2 upload flows support browser uploads, server uploads, and administrative cleanup without leaking storage details into the UI.

Content

Content and SEO primitives

Markdown blog content, Content Collections indexing, metadata generation, sitemap output, and structured page shells are included for marketing content.

i18n

Localization-ready routing

Locale persistence, marketing URL handling, and translated UI strings are in place for Multilingual.

Quality

Testing and regression coverage

Jest covers units and routes, while Playwright smoke tests exercise auth redirects, API key flows, CLI device auth, admin gating, and locale routing in a real browser.
