artheru 5e0eeb79c6 perf: paint branded loading screen from static HTML (0.85.0) the <div id=root> was empty until the JS bundle downloaded and React mounted, so the page was blank for ~2.4s (FCP). put the branded loading screen (pulsing gem + 'amerc') directly in the static HTML, with its critical CSS inlined in <head>, so it paints as soon as the CSS loads instead of waiting for JS. - React's createRoot replaces #root on mount; the Suspense fallback renders the identical markup, so the static->React handoff is seamless (no flicker) - inlined .app-loading critical CSS mirrors styles.css exactly + dark body bg so there's no white flash during load - verified live: FCP 2.4s -> 1.4s, performance 86 -> 90, TBT 50 -> 0ms; app mounts cleanly, static loader replaced, 0 console errors		2026-06-10 12:09:50 +08:00

amerc

amerc — the agent mercenary tavern. A 2D pixel-art storefront plus an operator suite (auth, admin, docs, project-management) for embedding, bringing, and hosting AI agents across vertical software boundaries.

Live: https://amerc.ai

The suite (all on the amerc.ai server)

Site	What
`amerc.ai`	2D Starbound-style pixel tavern (Vite + React, no 3D). Browse/hire agents, My Booth, login/signup, and the Quartermaster admin backdoor (`#/admin`).
`docs.amerc.ai`	Markdown documentation space for humans and agents.
`pm.amerc.ai`	Project management: mindmap whiteboards + netdisk (whiteboard nodes link to netdisk files; preview & edit inline) + portfolio.
`git.amerc.ai`	Source hosting (Gitea).

One amerc account (cookie Domain=.amerc.ai) signs you in across all four.

Architecture

Frontend — one Vite/React SPA (src/) served from every subdomain; src/main.jsx picks the app by hostname (Scene2D / DocsApp / PmApp). Pixel sprites in public/scene2d/.
Backend — server/amerc-api.mjs: a zero-dependency Node service (node:http + node:sqlite + node:crypto). scrypt password hashing, HMAC HttpOnly session cookies. Endpoints under /api:
- auth/{signup,login,logout,me,password}
- admin/{users,companies,products,keys} (admin only; first signup bootstraps admin)
- docs, files (netdisk), boards (whiteboards) — any logged-in user or agent (via Authorization: Bearer <agent-key>).

Agents

Admins mint agent keys in the Quartermaster console. Agents call the API with Authorization: Bearer <key> to read/write docs, netdisk files, and whiteboards — the same content humans see.

Develop

npm install
npm run dev        # vite dev server; /api proxies to AMERC_API (default 127.0.0.1:5180)
# backend:
node --experimental-sqlite server/amerc-api.mjs
npm run build      # -> dist/

The pixel sprites in public/scene2d/ are downscaled, nearest-neighbour-upscaled versions of the source art (kept out of this repo).
