Added comprehensive implementation plan for development mode feature
and test configuration used during verification.
Files:
- docs/plans/2025-11-01-dev-mode-mock-ai.md: Complete 12-task plan
- configs/test_dev_mode.json: Test configuration for dev mode
These files document the feature implementation process and provide
reference configurations for testing.
Fix critical bug where dev mode was initializing the production database
path instead of the dev database path. The initialize_dev_database() call
now correctly uses get_db_path() to resolve to data/jobs_dev.db.
Impact:
- Before: DEV mode would reset data/jobs.db (production database)
- After: DEV mode correctly resets data/jobs_dev.db (dev database)
Testing:
- Verified database isolation between dev and prod
- Confirmed PRESERVE_DEV_DATA flag works correctly
- Validated dev mode banner and deployment mode detection
Documentation:
- Added comprehensive manual verification results
- Documented all test cases and outcomes
- Recorded fix details for future reference
Task: Task 12 - Manual Verification and Final Testing
Plan: docs/plans/2025-11-01-dev-mode-mock-ai.md
Add comprehensive design document for rebranding project from AI-Trader
to AI-Trader-Server. Includes 4-phase approach with validation
checkpoints, naming conventions, and success criteria.

Reorganize documentation into user-focused, developer-focused, and deployment-focused sections.
**New structure:**
- Root: README.md (streamlined), QUICK_START.md, API_REFERENCE.md
- docs/user-guide/: configuration, API usage, integrations, troubleshooting
- docs/developer/: contributing, development setup, testing, architecture
- docs/deployment/: Docker deployment, production checklist, monitoring
- docs/reference/: environment variables, MCP tools, data formats
**Changes:**
- Streamline README.md from 831 to 469 lines
- Create QUICK_START.md for 5-minute onboarding
- Create API_REFERENCE.md as single source of truth for API
- Remove 9 outdated specification docs (v0.2.0 API design)
- Remove DOCKER_API.md (content consolidated into new structure)
- Remove docs/plans/ directory with old design documents
- Update CLAUDE.md with documentation structure guide
- Remove orchestration-specific references
**Benefits:**
- Clear entry points for different audiences
- No content duplication
- Better discoverability through logical hierarchy
- All content reflects current v0.3.0 API
Add VOLUME_PATH environment variable to customize storage location for
all persistent data (data/, logs/, configs/ subdirectories).
Changes:
- .env.example: Add VOLUME_PATH variable with documentation
- docker-compose.yml: Use ${VOLUME_PATH:-.} for all volume mounts
- docs/DOCKER.md: Document custom volume location feature
Benefits:
- Store data outside project directory (e.g., on separate disk)
- Easier backup/restore (single directory)
- Clean separation of code and data
- Support for absolute or relative paths
Usage:
# In .env file
VOLUME_PATH=/home/user/trading-data
# Results in mounts:
/home/user/trading-data/data:/app/data
/home/user/trading-data/logs:/app/logs
/home/user/trading-data/configs:/app/configs
Defaults to current directory (.) if not set for backward compatibility.
Implement automatic detection of custom_config.json for simpler Docker usage.
No environment variables or command-line arguments needed for most users.
Changes:
- entrypoint.sh: Add smart config detection (custom_config.json > CLI arg > default_config.json)
- docker-compose.yml: Add configs volume mount for editing without rebuilds
- docs/DOCKER.md: Update documentation with simplified workflow
- .gitignore: Add custom_config.json to prevent accidental commits
Usage:
cp configs/default_config.json configs/custom_config.json
nano configs/custom_config.json
docker-compose up # Automatically uses custom_config.json
Simplifies user experience by following convention over configuration principle.
