ADR-001: Hybrid Architecture (Standalone + CODITECT Integration)

Status

Accepted - 2025-11-26

Context

The MEMORY-CONTEXT hybrid platform (coditect-dev-context) addresses the growing market need for GenAI context management across AI assistant platforms (Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, Cursor, etc.). We face a critical architectural decision that will determine market reach, development complexity, and long-term strategic positioning.

Market Opportunity

Standalone Context Management Market:

Total Addressable Market (TAM): $26B by 2030 (GenAI developer tools)
Serviceable Market (SAM): $5.2B (context management segment)
Target Users: 15M+ developers using AI assistants globally
Revenue Potential: $50-200/user/year for Pro/Enterprise tiers

CODITECT Integration Benefits:

Existing Platform: 50+ specialized agents, 72 commands, distributed intelligence
Competitive Differentiation: Seamless integration vs. external tools
Upsell Opportunity: Context management as gateway to full CODITECT platform
Code Reuse: Django multi-tenant, authentication, PostgreSQL patterns

Current Problems

Market Reach Limitation: CODITECT-only deployment restricts market to CODITECT users (currently <1,000)
Competitive Disadvantage: Standalone tools (NotebookLM, Context.ai) capture broader market
Development Complexity: Building both standalone AND integrated versions appears to duplicate effort
Strategic Risk: If CODITECT platform delayed, context management value locked inside ecosystem
Revenue Opportunity: Missing $26B standalone market while waiting for CODITECT traction

Requirements

Business Requirements:

Access to $26B standalone GenAI context management market
Maintain CODITECT competitive advantage through seamless integration
Support dual revenue streams (standalone SaaS + CODITECT upsell)
Enable pivot to standalone if CODITECT platform experiences delays
Minimize code duplication and maintenance overhead

Technical Requirements:

Support deployment as standalone SaaS application (FastAPI + React)
Support deployment as Django app within CODITECT platform
Share core logic (models, services, analytics engine) across both modes
Provide pluggable integration layer for CODITECT-specific features
Maintain independent release cycles for standalone vs. integrated versions

User Experience Requirements:

Standalone users get full-featured context management without CODITECT
CODITECT users get enhanced experience (agent integration, workflow automation)
Migration path from standalone to CODITECT (upgrade, not replacement)
Consistent data models and APIs across deployment modes

Decision

Implement hybrid architecture with pluggable integration layer

We will build a single codebase that supports both standalone deployment and CODITECT platform integration through a pluggable integration layer. The architecture separates core context management logic from deployment-specific concerns.

Key Components

1. Core Context Engine (Shared - 85% codebase)

Responsibilities:

Parse conversation data from unique_messages.jsonl
Correlate messages with Git commits via timestamp + semantic similarity
Link activities to project-plan.md goals and tasklist.md items
Generate embeddings for semantic search (OpenAI/Voyage AI)
Provide analytics (productivity metrics, focus areas, trend detection)
Hybrid search (keyword + semantic via RRF)

Implementation:

# core/context_engine.py
class ContextEngine:
    """Framework-agnostic core logic"""

    def __init__(self, storage_adapter: StorageAdapter, auth_adapter: AuthAdapter):
        self.storage = storage_adapter
        self.auth = auth_adapter
        self.correlation = CorrelationEngine()
        self.analytics = AnalyticsEngine()

    async def capture_activity(self, message: Message) -> Activity:
        """Capture and correlate activity (same logic for both modes)"""
        actor = self.auth.get_actor(message)
        commits = await self.correlation.find_related_commits(message)
        tasks = await self.correlation.find_related_tasks(message)

        activity = Activity(
            actor=actor,
            message=message,
            commits=commits,
            tasks=tasks,
            timestamp=message.timestamp
        )

        await self.storage.save_activity(activity)
        return activity

Technologies:

Python 3.11+ (async/await)
Pydantic (data validation, framework-agnostic models)
SQLAlchemy Core (framework-agnostic queries)
GitPython (Git correlation)

2. Integration Layer (Pluggable - 15% codebase)

Adapters:

a) Auth Adapter

# Standalone: JWT-based auth
class StandaloneAuthAdapter:
    def get_actor(self, message: Message) -> Actor:
        token = extract_jwt(message.headers)
        user = verify_jwt(token)
        return Actor(user_id=user.id, type='human')

# CODITECT: Django auth + agent identification
class CODITECTAuthAdapter:
    def get_actor(self, message: Message) -> Actor:
        if is_agent_message(message):
            agent = identify_agent(message.role)
            return Actor(agent_id=agent.id, type='agent')
        else:
            user = django.contrib.auth.get_user(message.request)
            return Actor(user_id=user.id, type='human')

b) Storage Adapter

# Standalone: Direct SQLAlchemy
class StandaloneStorageAdapter:
    async def save_activity(self, activity: Activity) -> None:
        async with self.session() as db:
            db.add(ActivityModel(**activity.dict()))
            await db.commit()

# CODITECT: Django ORM with multi-tenant RLS
class CODITECTStorageAdapter:
    async def save_activity(self, activity: Activity) -> None:
        await Activity.objects.acreate(
            organization_id=get_current_org(),
            **activity.dict()
        )

c) Agent Integration Adapter

# Standalone: No-op (agents not available)
class StandaloneAgentAdapter:
    def invoke_agent(self, agent_name: str, task: str) -> None:
        raise NotImplementedError("Agents only available in CODITECT mode")

# CODITECT: Full agent integration
class CODITECTAgentAdapter:
    def invoke_agent(self, agent_name: str, task: str) -> AgentResult:
        from coditect.agents import AgentRegistry
        agent = AgentRegistry.get(agent_name)
        return agent.execute(task)

3. Deployment Configurations

Standalone Deployment:

# docker-compose.yml
services:
  api:
    image: coditect-context-api:latest
    environment:
      DEPLOYMENT_MODE: standalone
      AUTH_ADAPTER: StandaloneAuthAdapter
      STORAGE_ADAPTER: StandaloneStorageAdapter
  postgres:
    image: postgres:15
  weaviate:
    image: semitechnologies/weaviate:latest
  frontend:
    image: coditect-context-frontend:latest

CODITECT Integration:

# coditect_platform/settings.py
INSTALLED_APPS = [
    # ... existing apps
    'coditect_dev_context',  # Django app
]

# coditect_dev_context/apps.py
class CoditectDevContextConfig(AppConfig):
    default_auto_field = 'django.db.models.BigAutoField'
    name = 'coditect_dev_context'

    def ready(self):
        # Register with CODITECT platform
        from coditect.registry import register_module
        register_module('dev-context', version='1.0.0')

Implement adapters for both modes
Unit tests for core engine (80% coverage)

Phase 2: Standalone Deployment (Weeks 9-12)

FastAPI endpoints
React dashboard
Docker Compose deployment
Standalone documentation and marketing

Phase 3: CODITECT Integration (Weeks 13-14)

Django app wrapper
Agent integration
Multi-tenant RLS setup

Component	Shared %	Standalone-Specific	CODITECT-Specific
Core Engine	100%	0%	0%
Data Models	95%	5% (FastAPI schemas)	5% (Django models)
API Layer	60%	40% (FastAPI routes)	40% (Django views)
Frontend	90%	10% (auth UI)	10% (platform UI)
Overall	85%	~15%	~15%

Development Overhead: ~15% additional time (14 weeks vs. 12 weeks standalone-only)

Alternatives Considered

Alternative 1: Standalone Only (Fastest to Market)

Architecture:

FastAPI + React -> PostgreSQL + Weaviate

Advantages:

✅ Simplest implementation (12 weeks)
✅ Single deployment pipeline
✅ Fastest time to market
✅ No CODITECT dependencies
✅ Easy to pivot or sell separately

Rejected because:

❌ Zero CODITECT integration: Misses competitive advantage
❌ No agent features: Cannot leverage 50+ CODITECT agents
❌ Duplicate infrastructure: Standalone users can't upgrade to CODITECT
❌ Limited revenue: One-time sale vs. platform upsell
❌ Strategic misalignment: Doesn't strengthen CODITECT ecosystem

Score: 32/40 (B+)

Alternative 2: CODITECT-Only (Tightest Integration)

Architecture:

Django App -> CODITECT Platform -> PostgreSQL (shared)

Advantages:

✅ Deepest integration (agent workflows, multi-tenant, auth reuse)
✅ Code reuse with CODITECT platform (~60%)
✅ Single deployment model
✅ Zero auth/multi-tenant implementation
✅ Platform differentiation

Rejected because:

❌ Market limitation: Only CODITECT users (<1K vs. 15M+ AI assistant users)
❌ Revenue cap: Tied to CODITECT adoption rate
❌ Strategic risk: If CODITECT delayed, context value locked away
❌ No standalone option: Cannot capture $26B standalone market
❌ Difficult extraction: Hard to separate if CODITECT pivots

Score: 30/40 (B)

Alternative 3: Microservice Architecture

Architecture:

┌─────────────────────────────────────────┐
│  Standalone Frontend  │  CODITECT UI    │
└───────────┬───────────┴────────┬─────────┘
            │                    │

            ┌────────────▼─────────────┐
            │  PostgreSQL + Weaviate   │
            └──────────────────────────┘

Advantages:

✅ Independent scaling per service
✅ Technology flexibility (Go for performance, Python for ML)
✅ Team autonomy (separate teams per service)
✅ Fault isolation

Rejected because:

❌ Massive complexity: 3+ services vs. 1 codebase
❌ Operational overhead: Kubernetes, service mesh, distributed tracing required
❌ Development time: 20+ weeks (vs. 14 weeks hybrid)
❌ Cost: 3x infrastructure ($450/month vs. $150/month)
❌ Overkill for MVP: Premature optimization for <10K users
❌ Network latency: Cross-service calls add 10-50ms per request

Score: 28/40 (B-)

Alternative 4: Feature Flags (Single Codebase, Runtime Toggling)

Architecture:

# Single codebase with feature flags
if settings.DEPLOYMENT_MODE == 'standalone':
    use_jwt_auth()
elif settings.DEPLOYMENT_MODE == 'coditect':
    use_django_auth()

Advantages:

✅ Single codebase (DRY)
✅ No duplication
✅ Easy testing (toggle flags)

Rejected because:

❌ Code complexity: if/else everywhere (maintenance nightmare)
❌ Testing burden: Must test every flag combination (2^N test cases)
❌ Tight coupling: Hard to evolve modes independently
❌ Performance: Runtime checks on hot paths
❌ Deployment confusion: Wrong flag = broken deployment

Score: 29/40 (B)

Consequences

Positive

Business Impact

Dual Revenue Streams
- Standalone SaaS: $50-200/user/year × 10K users = $500K-2M ARR
- CODITECT upsell: 20% conversion × $500/user/year = +$100K ARR
- Total Year 1 Revenue Potential: $600K-2.1M
Market Expansion
- Addressable market: 15M AI assistant users (vs. <1K CODITECT users)
- Competitive positioning: Feature parity with NotebookLM, Context.ai
- Brand awareness: Standalone users discover CODITECT platform
Strategic Flexibility
- Can pivot to standalone if CODITECT delayed (independent product)
- Can sunset standalone if CODITECT dominates (migration path exists)
- Can sell standalone separately (exit option)

Technical Benefits

Code Reuse (85%)
- Core engine shared across both modes
- Single source of truth for models, correlation logic, analytics
- Bug fixes benefit both deployments
CODITECT Differentiation
- Agent integration (50+ specialized agents)
- Distributed intelligence (CODITECT brain access)
- Workflow automation (slash commands, skills)
- Multi-project coordination
Clean Architecture
- Adapter pattern enforces separation of concerns
- Core engine remains framework-agnostic
- Easy to add new deployment modes (e.g., VS Code extension)

Negative

Development Complexity

Additional Implementation Time
- 14 weeks (hybrid) vs. 12 weeks (standalone only)
- 15% overhead for integration layer
- Must maintain two sets of deployment docs
Testing Burden
- Unit tests for core (same)
- Integration tests for standalone (FastAPI + React)
- Integration tests for CODITECT (Django + platform)
- End-to-end tests for both modes
- Estimated: 20% more test code
Deployment Complexity
- Two deployment pipelines (Docker Compose vs. Django app)
- Two sets of infrastructure (standalone cloud vs. CODITECT platform)
- Two release cycles (can drift if not coordinated)

Operational Overhead

Support Complexity
- Bugs may be mode-specific (e.g., Django ORM vs. SQLAlchemy)
- Two documentation sites (standalone vs. CODITECT)
- Different feature sets (standalone vs. CODITECT-enhanced)
Code Drift Risk
- Temptation to add mode-specific hacks
- Must enforce strict adapter boundaries
- Requires code review discipline

Risks

Risk 1: Code Duplication Creep

Description: Over time, developers may duplicate logic in mode-specific code instead of extracting to shared core.

Likelihood: Medium (40%)

Impact: High (maintenance burden, bugs diverge across modes)

Mitigation:

Architectural review: Mandate core engine updates for shared logic
Code coverage: Require 80% coverage for core engine
Automated checks: CI/CD fails if shared code % drops below 80%
Quarterly refactoring: Dedicated sprint to extract duplicated code

Risk 2: CODITECT Integration Breaks

Description: CODITECT platform changes break Django integration without warning.

Likelihood: Medium (30%)

Impact: High (CODITECT users lose context management)

Mitigation:

Integration tests: Automated tests run against CODITECT platform daily
Version pinning: Lock to specific CODITECT platform version
Adapter versioning: Support multiple CODITECT versions via adapter selection
Rollback plan: Keep standalone mode working independently

Risk 3: Standalone Cannibalizes CODITECT

Description: Users adopt standalone context management and never upgrade to CODITECT.

Likelihood: Low (20%)

Impact: Medium (lost upsell revenue, but standalone revenue compensates)

Mitigation:

Feature differentiation: Reserve best features for CODITECT mode (agent workflows, automation)
Upgrade incentives: Offer discounts for standalone -> CODITECT migration
Value demonstration: Showcase CODITECT agents in standalone UI (read-only previews)
Data lock-in: Make migration to CODITECT seamless (one-click import)

Risk 4: Complexity Delays Launch

Description: 15% overhead compounds due to integration issues, delaying market entry.

Likelihood: Medium (35%)

Impact: High (competitor captures market first)

Mitigation:

Phased rollout: Launch standalone first (Week 12), CODITECT later (Week 14)
MVP discipline: Cut non-critical features to hit standalone deadline
Parallel development: Two developers (one per mode) after Week 8
Weekly checkpoints: Assess progress, adjust scope if slipping
