# Mize
Mize is many things.
- a "strongly typed filesystem for the age of everyone having many devices"
- a stdlib replacement
- a framework to make malleable/extensible/configurable/debugable software fast
- a OS userspace (mainly linux but later also any other kernels)
- a library for COP = Configuration Oriented Programming
- a thing providing one single API through which any data can be interacted with
## Codebase Structure
```
packages/
├── src/ # Core Mize framework (Rust)
├── marts/ # Mize parts collection (Rust/TypeScript)
└── macros/ # Mize macros
```
## Key Components
All code written for, with or as part as mize (except for the small core) is written as a Mize Part. see `docs/part-system.md` for how that works.
To understand the main components of the architecture you can refer to `docs/architecture.md`.
## Require clarification and plan approval before making code changes
Before making any code changes other than the changelog, you must follow this two-step process:
### Step 1: Ask Clarifying Questions
- Always ask at least one clarifying question about the user's request
- Understand the full scope and context of what they're asking for
- Clarify any ambiguous requirements or edge cases
- Ask about preferred approaches if multiple solutions exist
- Confirm the expected behavior and user experience
### Step 2: Present Implementation Plan
- After receiving clarification, present a detailed implementation plan
- Break down the work into specific, actionable steps
- Identify which files will be created, modified, or deleted
- Explain the technical approach and any architectural decisions
- Highlight any potential risks, trade-offs, or dependencies
- Estimate the complexity and scope of changes
- **Wait for explicit user approval** before proceeding with any code changes
### Approval Requirements
- User must explicitly approve the plan with words like "yes", "approved", "proceed", "go ahead", or similar
- If the user suggests modifications to the plan, incorporate them and seek re-approval
- Do not assume silence or ambiguous responses mean approval
### Exceptions
- This process may be skipped only for trivial changes like fixing obvious typos or formatting
- When in doubt, always follow the full process rather than assuming an exception applies
### Example Workflow
1. User: "Add a login form to the app"
2. Assistant: "I'd like to clarify a few things about the login form: [questions]"
3. User: [provides answers]
4. Assistant: "Based on your requirements, here's my implementation plan: [detailed plan]. Does this approach look good to you?"
5. User: "Yes, that looks good"
6. Assistant: [writes plan to file].
7. Assistant: [proceeds with implementation].
