+# AGENTS.md - Coding Agent Guidelines for golib
+
+## Project Overview
+This is a Go library repository containing multiple independent packages:
+- **cookies**: HTTP cookie utilities
+- **env**: Environment variable helpers
+- **ezconf**: Configuration loader with ENV parsing
+- **hlog**: Logging with zerolog
+- **hws**: HTTP web server
+- **hwsauth**: Authentication middleware for hws
+- **jwt**: JWT token generation and validation
+- **tmdb**: The Movie Database API client
+
+Each package has its own `go.mod` and can be used independently.
+
+## Interactive Questions
+All questions in plan mode should use the opencode interactive question prompter for user interaction.
+
+## Build, Test, and Lint Commands
+
+### Running Tests
+```bash
+# Test all packages from repo root
+go test ./...
+
+# Test a specific package
+cd <package> && go test
+
+# Run a single test function
+cd <package> && go test -run TestFunctionName
+
+# Run tests with verbose output
+cd <package> && go test -v
+
+# Run tests matching a pattern
+cd <package> && go test -run "TestName.*"
+```
+
+### Building
+```bash
+# Each package is a library - no build needed
+# Verify code compiles:
+go build ./...
+
+# Or for specific package:
+cd <package> && go build
+```
+
+### Linting
+```bash
+# Use standard go tools
+go vet ./...
+go fmt ./...
+
+# Check formatting without changing files
+gofmt -l .
+```
+
+## Code Style Guidelines
+
+### Package Structure
+- Each package must have its own `go.mod` with module path: `git.haelnorr.com/h/golib/<package>`
+- Go version should be current (1.23.4+)
+- Each package should have a `doc.go` file with package documentation
+
+### Imports
+- Use standard library imports first
+- Then third-party imports
+- Then local imports from this repo (e.g., `git.haelnorr.com/h/golib/hlog`)
+- Group imports with blank lines between groups
+- Example:
+```go
+import (
+    "context"
+    "net/http"
+    
+    "github.com/pkg/errors"
+    "github.com/stretchr/testify/require"
+    
+    "git.haelnorr.com/h/golib/hlog"
+)
+```
+
+### Formatting
+- Use `gofmt` standard formatting
+- No tabs for alignment, use spaces inside structs
+- Line length: no hard limit, but prefer readability
+
+### Types
+- Use explicit types for struct fields
+- Config structs must have ENV comments (see below)
+- Prefer named return values for complex functions
+- Use generics where appropriate (see `hwsauth.Authenticator[T Model, TX DBTransaction]`)
+
+### Naming Conventions
+- Packages: lowercase, single word (e.g., `cookies`, `ezconf`)
+- Exported functions: PascalCase (e.g., `NewServer`, `ConfigFromEnv`)
+- Unexported functions: camelCase (e.g., `isValidHostname`, `waitUntilReady`)
+- Test functions: `Test<FunctionName>` or `Test<FunctionName>_<Case>` (underscore for sub-cases)
+- Variables: camelCase, descriptive names
+- Constants: PascalCase or UPPER_CASE depending on scope
+
+### Error Handling
+- Use `github.com/pkg/errors` for error wrapping
+- Wrap errors with context: `errors.Wrap(err, "context message")`
+- Return errors, don't panic (except in truly exceptional cases)
+- Validate inputs and return descriptive errors
+- Example:
+```go
+if config == nil {
+    return nil, errors.New("Config cannot be nil")
+}
+```
+
+### Configuration Pattern
+- Each package with config should have a `Config` struct
+- Provide `ConfigFromEnv() (*Config, error)` function
+- ENV comment format for Config struct fields:
+```go
+type Config struct {
+    Host string // ENV HWS_HOST: Host to listen on (default: 127.0.0.1)
+    Port uint64 // ENV HWS_PORT: Port to listen on (default: 3000)
+    SSL  bool   // ENV HWS_SSL: Enable SSL (required when using production)
+}
+```
+- Format: `// ENV ENV_NAME: Description (required <condition>) (default: <value>)`
+- Include "required" only if no default
+- Include "default" only if one exists
+
+### Testing
+- Use `testing` package from standard library
+- Use `github.com/stretchr/testify` for assertions (`require`, `assert`)
+- Table-driven tests for multiple cases:
+```go
+tests := []struct {
+    name    string
+    input   string
+    wantErr bool
+}{
+    {"valid case", "input", false},
+    {"error case", "", true},
+}
+```
+- Test files use `<package>_test` for black-box tests or `<package>` for white-box
+- Helper functions should use `t.Helper()`
+
+### Documentation
+- All exported functions, types, and constants must have godoc comments
+- Comments should start with the name being documented
+- Example: `// NewServer returns a new hws.Server with the specified configuration.`
+- Keep doc.go files up to date with package overview
+- Follow RULES.md for README and wiki documentation
+
+## Version Control (from RULES.md)
+- Do NOT make changes to master branch
+- Checkout a branch for new features
+- Version numbers use git tags - do NOT change manually
+- When updating docs, append branch name to version
+- Changes to golib-wiki repo should use same branch name
+
+## Testing Requirements (from RULES.md)
+- All features MUST have tests
+- Update existing tests when modifying features
+- New features require new tests
+
+## Documentation Requirements (from RULES.md)
+- Document via: docstrings, README.md, doc.go, wiki
+- README structure: Title+version, Features (NO EMOTICONS), Installation, Quick Start, Docs links, Additional info, License, Contributing, Related projects
+- Wiki location: `~/projects/golib-wiki`
+- Docstrings must conform to godoc standards
+
+## License
+- All modules use MIT License

+// Package cookies provides utilities for handling HTTP cookies in Go web applications.
+// It includes functions for setting secure cookies, deleting cookies, and managing

+//
+// The package follows security best practices by setting the HttpOnly flag on all
+// cookies to prevent XSS attacks. The SetCookie function allows you to specify the
+// name, path, value, and max-age for cookies.
+//
+// The pagefrom functionality helps with user experience by remembering where a user
+// was before being redirected to login/register pages, then redirecting them back
+// after successful authentication.
+//
+// Example usage:
+//
+//	// Set a session cookie
+//	cookies.SetCookie(w, "session", "/", "abc123", 3600)
+//
+//	// Delete a cookie
+//	cookies.DeleteCookie(w, "old_session", "/")

+//	// Handle pagefrom tracking

+Environment variable utilities for Go applications with type safety and default values.

+## Features
+
+- Type-safe environment variable parsing
+- Support for all basic Go types (string, int variants, uint variants, bool, time.Duration)
+- Graceful fallback to default values
+- Comprehensive boolean parsing with multiple truthy/falsy values
+- Full test coverage

+## Installation
+
+```bash
+go get git.haelnorr.com/h/golib/env
+```
+
+## Quick Start
+
+```go
+package main
+
+import (
+    "fmt"
+    "time"
+    "git.haelnorr.com/h/golib/env"
+)
+
+func main() {
+    // String values
+    host := env.String("HOST", "localhost")
+    
+    // Integer values (all sizes supported)
+    port := env.Int("PORT", 8080)
+    timeout := env.Int64("TIMEOUT_SECONDS", 30)
+    
+    // Unsigned integer values
+    maxConnections := env.UInt("MAX_CONNECTIONS", 100)
+    
+    // Boolean values (supports many formats)
+    debug := env.Bool("DEBUG", false)
+    
+    // Duration values
+    requestTimeout := env.Duration("REQUEST_TIMEOUT", 30*time.Second)
+    
+    fmt.Printf("Server: %s:%d\n", host, port)
+    fmt.Printf("Debug: %v\n", debug)
+    fmt.Printf("Timeout: %v\n", requestTimeout)

+// Package env provides utilities for reading environment variables with type safety
+// and default values. It supports common Go types including strings, integers (all sizes),
+// unsigned integers (all sizes), booleans, and time.Duration values.
+//
+// The package follows a simple pattern where each function takes a key name and a
+// default value, returning the parsed environment variable or the default if the
+// variable is not set or cannot be parsed.
+//
+// Example usage:
+//
+//	port := env.Int("PORT", 8080)
+//	debug := env.Bool("DEBUG", false)
+//	timeout := env.Duration("TIMEOUT", 30*time.Second)
+//
+// All functions gracefully handle missing environment variables by returning the
+// provided default value. They also handle parsing errors by falling back to the
+// default value.
