## What
Adds `.claude/docs/FRONTEND_PATTERNS.md`, a canonical frontend rule
contract for `site/src/` with ten stable rule IDs (FE1 to FE10), each
with short incorrect/correct examples using real repo idioms. Adds a
compact non-negotiables index at the top of `site/AGENTS.md` and links
the contract from the root `AGENTS.md` frontend routing line.
## Why
Frontend PRs keep drawing the same review findings. Mining the last 18
months of `site/` PR review data (330 closed/merged PRs, 1,105 inline
comments, 358 actionable pattern findings across 57 PRs) shows the
recurring themes, in order of frequency: missing Storybook interaction
coverage, loose TypeScript, component duplication and PR scope,
redundant comments, unhandled UI states, accessibility, react-query
misuse, and effect misuse. The guidance largely existed in
`site/AGENTS.md` already, but as unprioritized prose with no shared
vocabulary.
Stable rule IDs give reviewers, agents, and tooling one shared language
("FE7: re-typed query key"), and the rules are ordered by how often
reviewers actually flagged them.
This is the first PR of a stack of two:
1. This PR: the rule contract.
2. A `frontend-review` skill that audits diffs against these rules
pre-PR (#27408).
A third PR with a deterministic ratchet script (#27409) was closed; the
machine-checkable subset will be enforced through proper linting
instead.
## Notes for reviewers
The rule content is derived from your own review comments (for example,
the re-typed query key example in FE7 mirrors feedback on #27385). If a
rule does not match how you want the frontend built, the contract file
is the place to change it.

Coder is a self-hosted platform for cloud development environments and AI coding agents. Workspaces are defined with Terraform, connected through a secure Wireguard® tunnel, and automatically shut down when not used. Coder Agents runs a native AI coding agent whose loop executes in the control plane on your infrastructure, with no API keys in workspaces.
- Define cloud development environments in Terraform
- EC2 VMs, Kubernetes Pods, Docker Containers, etc.
- Automatically shutdown idle resources to save on costs
- Onboard developers in seconds instead of days
- Delegate coding work to AI agents on your infrastructure
- Bring any model (Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, Bedrock, self-hosted)
- No LLM credentials in workspaces, user identity on every action
- Centralized model governance, cost tracking, and audit logging
Quickstart
The most convenient way to try Coder is to install it on your local machine and experiment with provisioning cloud development environments using Docker (works on Linux, macOS, and Windows).
# First, install Coder
curl -L https://coder.com/install.sh | sh
# Start the Coder server (caches data in ~/.cache/coder)
coder server
# Navigate to http://localhost:3000 to create your initial user,
# create a Docker template and provision a workspace
Install
The easiest way to install Coder is to use the
install script for Linux
and macOS. For Windows, use the latest ..._installer.exe file from GitHub
Releases.
curl -L https://coder.com/install.sh | sh
You can run the install script with --dry-run to see the commands that will be used to install without executing them. Run the install script with --help for additional flags.
See install for additional methods.
Once installed, you can start a production deployment with a single command:
# Automatically sets up an external access URL on *.try.coder.app
coder server
# Requires a PostgreSQL instance (version 13 or higher) and external access URL
coder server --postgres-url <url> --access-url <url>
Use coder --help to get a list of flags and environment variables. See the install guides for a complete tutorial.
