Instructions

When to Use

Use for pnpm workspaces + Turborepo with Next apps.
Prefer github-actions-ci to wire the pipelines into Actions.
Prefer container-local-dev for Dockerized local stacks.

Structure pnpm workspaces + Turborepo for one or more Next.js apps and shared packages.

Define pnpm-workspace.yaml globs; separate apps/* and packages/*.
turbo.json pipelines: build depends on ^build; cache outputs for Next .next and dist folders.
Internal packages: TypeScript project references or transpilePackages in Next when consuming local UI libs.
Env: root vs app .env; never duplicate secrets in git.
Versioning: single lockfile; align Node engine field.

Outcomes

Folder tree + turbo.json task outline + pnpm filter examples.

Output Rules

Commands use pnpm and turbo only; match user lockfile if mixed.

Scope and boundaries

In scope: workspace layout, turbo pipelines, Next consumption of local packages.
Out of scope: Nx-specific generators, Bazel.

Safety

Read-only unless editing config files is explicitly requested.

Troubleshooting

Module not found across workspace: check package.json exports and TypeScript paths.
Turbo cache too aggressive: outputs keys wrong for Next - fix globs.
