# Module: Frontend Web App
## Responsibilities
- Render the ClawSec website for home, skills catalog/detail, and advisory feed/detail experiences.
- Render repository wiki content from `wiki/` markdown and expose per-page `llms.txt` links.
- Provide resilient JSON fetch behavior that handles SPA HTML fallback cases.
- Display install commands, checksums, and advisory metadata in a browser-focused UX.
## Key Files
- `index.tsx`: React bootstrap and root mount.
- `App.tsx`: Router map and page entry wiring.
- `pages/Home.tsx`: Landing page, install card, animated platform/file labels.
- `pages/SkillsCatalog.tsx`: Catalog fetch/filter state machine and empty-state handling.
- `pages/SkillDetail.tsx`: Loads `skill.json`, checksums, README/SKILL docs with markdown renderer.
- `pages/FeedSetup.tsx`: Advisory listing UI with pagination.
- `pages/AdvisoryDetail.tsx`: Advisory deep-dive view and source links.
- `pages/WikiBrowser.tsx`: In-app wiki renderer with wiki-page and `llms.txt` links.
- `components/Layout.tsx` + `components/Header.tsx`: Shared shell and nav behavior.
## Public Interfaces
- Browser routes:
- `/`
- `/skills`
- `/skills/:skillId`
- `/feed`
- `/feed/:advisoryId`
- `/wiki/*`
- Static fetch targets:
- `/skills/index.json`
- `/skills/<skill>/skill.json`
- `/skills/<skill>/checksums.json`
- `/advisories/feed.json`
- `/wiki/llms.txt`
- `/wiki/<page>/llms.txt`
- Display contracts:
- `SkillMetadata`, `SkillJson`, `SkillChecksums`, `AdvisoryFeed`, `Advisory` from `types.ts`.
## Inputs and Outputs
Inputs/outputs are summarized in the table below.
| Type | Name | Location | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Input | Skills index JSON | `/skills/index.json` | List of published skills and metadata. |
| Input | Skill payload files | `/skills/<id>/skill.json`, markdown docs, `checksums.json` | Detail-page content and integrity table. |
| Input | Advisory feed JSON | `/advisories/feed.json`, then `https://clawsec.prompt.security/advisories/feed.json` (legacy mirror fallback to `/releases/latest/download/feed.json`) | Advisory list/detail content. |
| Output | Route-specific UI states | Browser view state | Loading, empty, error, and populated experiences. |
| Output | Copy-to-clipboard commands | Clipboard API | Install and checksum snippets copied for users. |
## Configuration
- Build/runtime config comes from:
- `vite.config.ts` (port, host, path alias)
- `index.html` Tailwind config + custom fonts/colors
- `constants.ts` (`ADVISORY_FEED_URL`, `LOCAL_FEED_PATH`)
- Wiki markdown source lives in `wiki/`; `scripts/generate-wiki-llms.mjs` generates `public/wiki/**/llms.txt` (via `predev`/`prebuild`).
- Runtime behavior assumptions:
- JSON responses may be empty or HTML fallback and must be validated.
- Advisory list pagination uses `ITEMS_PER_PAGE = 9`.
## Example Snippets
```tsx
// Catalog fetch logic guards against HTML fallback responses
const contentType = response.headers.get('content-type') ?? '';
const raw = await response.text();
if (!raw.trim() || contentType.includes('text/html') || isProbablyHtmlDocument(raw)) {
setSkills([]);
setFilteredSkills([]);
return;
}
```
```tsx
// Route map defined in App.tsx
<Route path="/skills/:skillId" element={<SkillDetail />} />
<Route path="/feed/:advisoryId" element={<AdvisoryDetail />} />
<Route path="/wiki/*" element={<WikiBrowser />} />
```
## Edge Cases
- Missing `skills/index.json` returns empty catalog instead of hard failure.
- Some environments return `index.html` for missing JSON paths with status `200`; code defends against this.
- Skill detail tolerates missing/malformed checksums and missing markdown docs.
- Advisory detail handles absent optional fields (`cvss_score`, `reporter`, `references`).
## Tests
| Test Type | Location | Notes |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Type/lint/build checks | `scripts/prepare-to-push.sh` + CI | Frontend confidence comes from static checks and build success. |
| App-wide CI gates | `.github/workflows/ci.yml` | Multi-OS TypeScript/ESLint/build checks. |
| Manual smoke checks | `npm run dev` | Validate route rendering and fetch paths during development. |
