Phase 1: Foundation - Context

Gathered: 2026-04-10 Status: Ready for planning Mode: Auto-generated (infrastructure phase — discuss skipped)

## Phase Boundary

The Go binary connects to NetBox with all custom fields provisioned and a write-ahead queue buffering operations during downtime. This phase delivers the project scaffold, NetBox integration layer, HW-XXXXX ID assignment, catalog quality gate, and DragonFlyDB-backed write-ahead queue.

## Implementation Decisions

Claude's Discretion

All implementation choices are at Claude's discretion — pure infrastructure phase. Use ROADMAP phase goal, success criteria, and codebase conventions to guide decisions.

Key infrastructure context from user:

PostgreSQL at postgresql://homelabby:homelabby_2024_secure@10.5.0.109:5432/homelabby
DragonFlyDB (Redis-compatible) at redis://:nUq/IfoIQJf/kouckKHRQOk7vV0NwCuI@10.5.0.10:6379
NetBox at http://10.5.0.130:8000/api with token homelab-netbox-api-token-2024
SearXNG at http://10.5.0.129:8080/search (no auth)
All credentials stored in .env file
ClickHouse design system (pure black + neon volt) for UI — not Tokyo Night
Go backend with chi router, React TypeScript frontend embedded via go:embed
Single binary deployment
