tony d516e93323 chore: initial checkpoint - Tesla Roadtrip planner
- Proactive Grok integration (xAI API + local CLI fallback)
- Real road routing via OSRM (no more bird's-eye lines)
- Heavy structured logging for fast iteration
- Strong sanitization + geocoding + ErrorBoundary (no black screens)
- Playwright E2E tests (API diagnostic + full UI flow)
- scripts/dev.sh for one-command startup
- Clean .env.example + documentation

This is a stable checkpoint before further prompt/UI refinement.

# Tesla Roadtrip — Grok-Powered Planner (UK & Europe First)
Beautiful split-pane Tesla trip planner.
**Left side**: Natural language chat with Grok Drive (powered by the real xAI Grok API)
**Right side**: Interactive Leaflet map + live itinerary that updates as you talk
## First Release Focus
- United Kingdom
- Europe (France, Germany, Benelux, Switzerland, Spain)
## Key Features
- Real Grok intelligence via the xAI API
- Excellent Supercharger coverage awareness across the UK & Europe
- Metric units (km, Wh/km)
- Proactive route planning — just say where you want to go
- Safe, restricted tool use
## Tech Stack
- Vite + React + Tailwind + Leaflet (client)
- Express + Prisma + pino (server)
- Real xAI Grok API (with local `grok` CLI as optional path)
- Heavy structured logging for fast debugging
## Local Development
### 1. Install dependencies
```bash
npm install
cd client && npm install && cd ..
```
### 2. Set up environment variables
```bash
cp .env.example .env
```
Then edit `.env` and add your xAI API key:
```env
XAI_API_KEY=xai-YourKeyHere
```
You can get a key from: https://console.x.ai
### 3. Start the development environment
You have two options:
**Option A (Recommended)** Better developer experience:
```bash
./scripts/dev.sh
```
**Option B** Using npm:
```bash
npm run dev
```
Both commands will start:
- **Backend**: http://localhost:3000 (with detailed logging)
- **Frontend**: http://localhost:5173
### 4. Open the app
Visit: **http://localhost:5173**

## Useful Commands
| Command | Description |
|------------------------|------------------------------------------|
| `npm run dev` | Start both frontend and backend |
| `./scripts/dev.sh` | Recommended way to start (better output) |
| `npm run dev:server` | Start only the backend |
| `npm run dev:client` | Start only the frontend |

## Security & Philosophy
This project follows a strict security policy:
- No packages with known active critical or high vulnerabilities
- `react-markdown` / remark ecosystem avoided (LLM output sanitization via DOMPurify)
- All AI tool use is heavily restricted
- Maximum logging so we can debug the "chat → route → stops" flow easily
## Deployment Target
Will be deployed via Dokku on Hetzner with Gitea CI.
First launch target: United Kingdom & Europe.

## Need Help?
- Make sure your `XAI_API_KEY` is set (otherwise you'll get very basic responses)
- Check the backend terminal — it has extremely detailed logs
- The app is designed so you can iterate quickly by watching the logs
