Authored in a parallel session alongside the TypeScript migration; committed separately so the two never share a commit. No TypeScript migration file is included here. Candidates becomes the queue of hiring decisions waiting on a person, rather than a second Talent Pool listing every application the org ever took. Final selection is DERIVED - there is no `final_selection` value in the `application_status` enum and none is added. The fact it reads is the existence of an interview row, a NOT NULL foreign key, rather than `job_applications.interview_id`, which the schema keeps as an unconstrained soft reference precisely so it may dangle. `status = 'interview'` is set both when an interview is arranged and when one is completed, so status alone cannot tell a queue of people who have been interviewed from a queue of people merely booked in. Seats on a position are counted from the employment records instead of a stored column. A `filled` counter would be a second source of truth, and the day it disagreed with `staff` nothing could say which was lying. Someone who has left frees their seat, and over-hiring floors at zero rather than going negative. `DEMO_FILL` is gone. `hiringRecords.js` padded the hires list with five invented people so Hired History read as a history rather than as three rows; the padding reached Analytics too, where "total hires" counted eight against a database holding three. Hires now come only from `staff`. Both paths that file an application on somebody's behalf now carry `worker_profile_id`, the link back to the talent-pool record. The column is nullable, so omitting it saved cleanly and failed silently: the application belonged to an email address rather than to a person, and the hire it became could not be traced back to the profile it came from. `HiredChronology` used to `return null` with no hires, taking the `chronology` node identity out of the DOM with it - so on an honest empty dataset the section could not be addressed by Owliver or the layout editor at all. It now renders an empty state inside the section it keeps. Nine new checks cover the above; `npm test` reports 1684/1691. SIX SSR PARITY CHECKS FAIL ON PURPOSE, and `scripts/__baseline__/README.md` documents each with verified tag counts. Five are the `DEMO_FILL` removal: the Hired History and Analytics baselines were captured while the padding was in effect and, because they render with queries disabled, the padding is all they contain. The sixth is this change to what Candidates says. Do not regenerate those baselines to clear them - two of the checks exist to prove the UI node tree migration added exactly two `<div>`s, and that proof needs the baseline to be pre-migration markup. Recapturing now would write post-migration markup into a file named `pre-migration` and the check would compare the current render against itself forever. The debt is held until the migration work lands, when both files are recaptured together. The seventh failure, the stale backend seed fixture, predates all of this.

KROW Demo
AI-powered hiring for event and hospitality staffing — a standalone demo build of KROW Forge.
Runs with no backend, no API keys and no real login. npm install && npm run dev and the app is fully
populated.
npm install
npm run dev # http://localhost:5173 — opens on /admin/login

Routes
The app opens on /admin/login. Everything else lives under /admin/* behind two guards:
ProtectedRoute (auth) and AdminRoute (admin session), rendered inside AdminLayout.
| Path | Page |

/admin/login |
Admin sign-in — outside the protected boundary |
/admin |

lib/PageNotFound.jsx |
Legacy top-level paths (/overview, /positions, /candidates, /hired, /talent-pool,
/university, /analytics, /activity, /tracking) all Navigate into their /admin/*
equivalent, id preserved. Static route segments are declared before dynamic ones so
workspace/agents/new cannot be read as an agent whose id is "new".
Note.
App.jsxstill imports a set of pre-redesign Employer/Talent pages (Overview,Apply,WorkerProfile,KrowIdentity,EmployeeDashboard,DesignSystem, …) andlayouts/Layout.jsx. None of them are mounted on a route — they are unreachable at runtime and retained pending a decision on whether to re-route or remove them.
The backend seam
The production app talks to a Base44 backend through src/api/base44Client.js. This demo keeps that
module path, export name and full method contract, and swaps only the transport:
| Contract | Demo implementation |
|---|---|
base44.entities.<Name>.list/filter/get/create/update/delete |
api/store.js — in-memory records, mirrored to localStorage |
base44.integrations.Core.InvokeLLM |
api/aiEngine.js — local, deterministic |
base44.integrations.Core.UploadFile |
blob URLs, session-scoped |
base44.auth.* |
seeded employer/admin user, always signed in |
Because the seam did not move, everything above it — lib/krowHooks.js, lib/krowAi.js,
lib/krowScore.js, every page and component — is unchanged from the reference implementation.
The AI engine
Every AI workflow funnels through one call, InvokeLLM({ prompt, response_json_schema }).
api/aiEngine.js reimplements it locally: it recognises each workflow by the phrase its prompt opens
with, reads the structured fields the prompt already carries (Years Experience: 6,
Required Certifications: …, the talent-pool JSON block) and scores them deterministically.
Nine workflows are implemented: candidate screening, job-description generation, résumé building, interview questions, interview evaluation, talent matching, Owliver's conversation, Career DNA building and Proving Ground evaluation. Results respond to the data rather than being canned — the same input always returns the same output.
Skills and agents
Two registries discover their definitions from markdown at build time:
| Registry | Glob | Files |
|---|---|---|
lib/skills/registry.js |
import.meta.glob('/src/skills/**/*.md') |
18 Owliver skills, 5 workforce training skills |
lib/agents/registry.js |
import.meta.glob('/src/agents/**/*.md') |
9 agent definitions |
These globs are absolute paths. Moving or renaming src/skills/ or src/agents/ makes the
registry silently return nothing — no build error, no import failure, just an empty registry. Add
definitions by dropping a new .md file into the right folder; nothing else needs to change.
Demo data
Seeded in src/api/seed.js — positions, applicants, AI-scored candidates, interviews, hires,
talent-pool profiles, Proving Ground courses and an activity log; shift data in
src/api/attendanceSeed.js.
Edits persist to localStorage. To restore the shipped dataset:
// in the browser console
localStorage.removeItem('krow_demo_db'); location.reload();
Bumping STORAGE_VERSION in src/api/store.js (currently 8) invalidates saved snapshots
automatically, so changing the seed does not require a manual clear.
Design system
Tokens live in src/index.css as HSL CSS variables consumed by tailwind.config.js.
| Token | Value |
|---|---|
| Primary — KROW Blue | #0A39DF |
| Accent — KROW Yellow | #F9E547 |
| Pale Yellow | #F8E08E |
| Dark Navy | #333F48 |
| Mint | #D1E0D7 |
| Radius | 0.75rem |
| Headings | Sora |
| Body | Inter |
src/components/ds/ is the vocabulary the app actually writes in — Surface, KpiCard,
DataTable, PageHeader, Modal, toast and the rest, exported through ds/index.js.
src/components/ui/ holds the shadcn primitives those are built on. Surfaces use glass and
glass-card; the page background is the gradient-mesh utility.
Toasts go through ds/toast (a wrapper over react-hot-toast), rendered by <HotToaster> in
App.jsx.

The test harness
npm test boots a real Vite dev server in middleware mode and ssrLoadModules the actual
application modules, so it exercises the real @/ alias and import.meta.glob pipeline rather than
mocks. It also diffs Owliver's behaviour across eleven page contexts against a committed snapshot,
scripts/__baseline__/owliver-baseline.json; regenerate that deliberately with
node scripts/owliver-baseline.mjs --write, never to turn a red check green.
Because it loads modules by absolute path, the harness pins the locations of src/api/, src/lib/,
src/lib/skills/, src/lib/agents/, src/components/ai-assistant/, src/App.jsx,
src/layouts/AdminLayout.jsx and a handful of agent files. Move any of them and update
scripts/owliver-capture.mjs and scripts/skill-check.mjs in the same change.
Known-failing checks
Two checks fail on a clean checkout and are tracked as separate work, not regressions:
npm test— 834/835 pass;the seeded overtime climb is foundfails.npm run typecheck— 59 errors, all pre-existing JSDoc/inference gaps inlib/krowAi.js,lib/skills/*,lib/positionModel.jsand a few components.
Deployment
Dockerfile builds with node:22-alpine (capped at 1 GB heap for small hosts) and serves the
static dist/ from nginx:alpine using nginx.conf — gzip, immutable /assets/ caching and an
SPA fallback to index.html so client-side routes resolve on refresh.
