INTENT — coulomb-social

Project Name

coulomb-social

One-Line Intent

coulomb-social reimplements the coulomb.social co-creation platform — currently stuck on bubble.io — as a first-class application on the Railiance / NetKingdom / HelixForge stack, so product evolution can move at agentic coding speed instead of low-code stall.

Purpose

coulomb.social is Coulomb's co-creation marketplace: people and teams find each other around shared projects and complementary capabilities. The live product still runs on bubble.io. That path is stalled: low-code velocity no longer matches the rest of the Coulomb fleet, content and UI are hard to evolve with agents, and the platform cannot meet the business-app service contract (tenancy, backup, cost attribution, image provenance).

This repository is the owning home for the rebuild:

  1. Parity capture — inventory and export everything that matters in the bubble.io app (UI surfaces, workflows, data types, content, integrations).
  2. Cut decisions — decide rebuild-as-is vs reduced v1 with an explicit human gate.
  3. Implementation — deliver a standalone service on the proven business delivery lane (vergabe-teilnahme evidence), under the business-app service contract.
  4. Cutover — migrate members and content off bubble.io when the new stack is ready.

Binky Hedgehog GmbH is client #1 of its own platform (DR-2 B). The app is not a Core Hub extension; it is a normal client-facing business application.

Core Idea

Exit bubble.io by duplicating the product surface into an agentic, code-owned stack — not by bolting more low-code onto a stalled base.

The rebuild is deliberately product-faithful first: UI and content parity matter so the community does not experience a feature cliff at cutover. Scope reductions, if any, are explicit decisions (CSOC-WP-0001-T03), not accidental omissions.

Platform Shape (decided)

Concern Decision
Shape Standalone service — own repo, own DB, own release values (DR-2 B)
Tenancy Instance-per-client deployment; tenant-keyed data model from migration one (DR-1 C)
Identity App-local member accounts in v1; auth behind a single module for later OIDC (DR-3 A)
Delivery lane commit-SHA images → gitea.coulomb.social/coulomb/coulomb-socialrailiance-apps values → railiance01
Contract the-custodian canon/standards/business-app-service-contract_v0.1.md §§16

What Success Looks Like

  1. Full inventory of the bubble.io product (pages, workflows, data, integrations) is recorded in this repo.
  2. Exportable data is mapped to a relational, tenant-keyed model and rehearsal-imported at least once.
  3. A human-gated feature cut (rebuild-as-is vs reduced v1) is decided and recorded.
  4. v1 implementation satisfies the business-app service contract before serving members.
  5. Members and content can cut over from bubble.io without relying on the low-code platform for further development.

Design Principles

  1. Own the product in code — UI, domain model, and content pipelines live in git so agents can change them safely.
  2. Parity before cleverness — match the existing product surface before inventing net-new platform features.
  3. Contract first — tenancy keying, backup/restore path, ops-hub registration, and cost attribution keys are not afterthoughts.
  4. Reuse the delivery lane — follow vergabe-teilnahme patterns for build, image, and railiance-apps release; do not invent a second path.
  5. Stack boundaries — Railiance owns runtime hosting, NetKingdom owns platform identity/secrets direction, HelixForge owns capability vocabulary; this repo owns the coulomb.social product.

Scope Summary

In: product rebuild, bubble exit assessment, data migration, UI/content parity, app-local auth, railiance delivery packaging.

Out: owning Railiance/NetKingdom/HelixForge platform code; remaining on bubble.io as the long-term development surface; Core Hub embedding.
