# Implementation Summary

**Session ID**: `phase13-session01-astro-scaffold-and-workspace-wiring` **Package**: `public-website` **Completed**: 2026-06-01 **Duration**: 1 hour

***

## Overview

Created the static Astro workspace foundation for `@factionos/public-website`, wired it into the root npm workspace, preserved the existing planning files in `public-website/`, and validated the package with build, typecheck, dev server, format, lint, test, and security checks.

## Technical Decisions

1. **Temporary starter merge**: generated the Astro blog starter outside the live website directory so existing planning files were preserved.
2. **Static-only Astro posture**: kept the site on static output with no server adapter or hosted runtime dependencies.
3. **Package-local typecheck path**: used `astro sync && tsc --noEmit` instead of `@astrojs/check` to avoid reintroducing the vulnerable YAML language server chain.

***

## Test Results

| Metric   | Value            |
| -------- | ---------------- |
| Tests    | 9 command groups |
| Passed   | 9                |
| Coverage | N/A              |

***

## Lessons Learned

1. The website package needed its own `vite@7` resolution to stay aligned with Astro 6 even though the root workspace currently uses Vite 8.
2. The existing `public-website/` planning files were worth preserving as source guidance rather than starter content.

***

## Future Considerations

Items for future sessions:

1. Replace the starter placeholder landing page with the Phase 13 design and content system.
2. Add the remaining static publishing routes, metadata plumbing, and asset foundations for the full public website.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://faction-os.gitbook.io/faction-os-docs/.spec_system/archive/sessions/phase13-session01-astro-scaffold-and-workspace-wiring/implementation_summary.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
