The parent framework module forge.lthn.ai/core/go (at ../go) provides core libraries: core.E errors, io.Medium filesystem abstraction, config, i18n, and logging.
Most implementation code (ansible engine, build system, infra clients, release pipeline, devkit, SDK generators) lives in the parent framework. This repo contains CLI commands that wire those packages together, plus deployment integrations and infrastructure playbooks.
cmd/dev/— Multi-repo developer commands registered undercore dev. The main CLI surface (~4,700 LOC across 21 files).cmd/deploy/—core deploy servers— Coolify PaaS server/app listing.cmd/docs/—core docs sync— Documentation sync across the multi-repo workspace.cmd/setup/—core setup repo— Generate.coreconfiguration for a project.cmd/gitcmd/— Git helper commands (mirrors dev commands undercore git).cmd/vanity-import/— Vanity import path server (the default build target in.core/build.yaml).cmd/community/— Community landing page assets.deploy/coolify/— Coolify PaaS API HTTP client.deploy/python/— Embedded Python 3.13 runtime wrapper (adds ~50 MB to binary).locales/— Embedded i18n translation files (en.json).snapshot/—core.jsonrelease manifest generation.playbooks/— Ansible YAML playbooks for production infrastructure (Galera, Redis). Executed by the native Go Ansible engine, notansible-playbook.

infra/client.go (parent module) provides HTTP client abstraction with exponential backoff retry (3 retries, 100ms–5s), HTTP 429 rate-limit handling with Retry-After parsing, and configurable auth (Bearer, Basic, query params). Used by Hetzner Cloud/Robot, CloudNS, and Forgejo clients.
core build → auto-detects project type → produces artifacts in dist/
core build release → version detection → changelog generation → publish via configured publishers
Configuration lives in .core/build.yaml (targets, ldflags) and .core/release.yaml (publishers, changelog filters).
