Bug

packages/render/src/module-loader.ts classified each stylesheet with surfaceOf(<absolute path>), and SURFACE_SEGMENT takes the first site|app|api|shared segment. The scaffold's own Dockerfile (scaffold-container.ts) runs from WORKDIR /app, so every absolute path started with app/. Every sheet (site modules, shared/global.scss, and node_modules/@ultimat3/ui) was classified as app. stylesFor('site') was empty, and styleTag() emitted no <link>, so every site or prerendered page rendered unstyled in production. Routing was not affected: the registry uses root-relative paths.

Fix

  • render: surfaceUnder(root, file) reads the surface below the root. A file outside the root is read the same way as before. A sheet under node_modules/ counts as a package sheet (null) whatever its directories are called. The loader classifies against setStylesheetRoot(root) (new in @ultimat3/render/server), which falls back to process.cwd() when unset. Naming the root reclassifies sheets that registered earlier, and bumps the revision only when an answer changes.
  • cli: loadApp(root) names the root before it imports any module.

Other surfaceOf / locateSurface callers, audited: routePathFromFile, checkSurfaceBoundary, boundary-cuts and island-harness all receive root-relative paths (loadApp / readAppSources relativise first). The stylesheet loader was the only absolute-path caller.

Tests (written first, failing before the fix)

  • surfaces.test.ts: /app and /srv/site/x roots, node_modules sheets, files outside the root, /apple prefix sibling
  • module-loader.test.ts: the registry under /app, and reclassification when the root is named after a sheet has loaded
  • prerender-app-root.test.ts: a real app on disk under …/app, prerendered. Before the fix the site document had no <link>. It now links a hashed file that carries the site CSS and the global layer, and no app/ CSS.
  • style-bundle.test.ts: under /app, the site gets its own content-hashed file. Its URL stays the same when the same bytes are re-registered or when app CSS is edited, and changes when the site CSS changes.

bun run verify: 14/20 passed, 6 skipped (nothing for them to check at the repo root).

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Fixed missing stylesheet links during prerendering when an app’s directory name caused stylesheets to be assigned to the wrong surface.
    • Stylesheets from installed packages are now included in the appropriate output, while app-only styles remain excluded from site styles.

… the absolute path

Under the scaffold container's WORKDIR /app every absolute stylesheet path starts with an app/
segment, so surfaceOf() classified every sheet (site modules, shared/global.scss, @ultimat3/ui)
as app: stylesFor('site') was empty and every site/prerendered document shipped with no
<link rel="stylesheet">.

- render: surfaceUnder(root, file) reads the surface below the root; a node_modules/ sheet is a
  package sheet (null). The loader classifies with it against setStylesheetRoot() (cwd when
  unset), and naming the root reclassifies sheets registered before it.
- cli: loadApp(root) names the root before importing any module.
- tests: surfaceUnder under /app and /srv/site/x, the loader registry under /app, a real app
  prerendered from a root named app/ links its site stylesheet, and the fingerprinted bundle
  under /app (own hashed site file; hash stable unless the site CSS changes).

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Stylesheet classification now uses paths relative to a configurable app root. The CLI sets this root before importing app modules. Tests cover root-relative classification, stylesheet bundles, and prerendered output.

Changes

Stylesheet classification

Layer / File(s) Summary
Classify paths relative to the app root
packages/render/src/surfaces.ts, packages/render/src/surfaces.test.ts
surfaceUnder classifies files relative to a normalized root, excludes files under node_modules/, and tests paths under named roots, outside the root, and with Windows separators.
Apply root-aware classification to registered stylesheets
packages/render/src/module-loader.ts, packages/render/src/module-loader.test.ts, packages/render/src/server.ts, packages/cli/src/style-bundle.test.ts
The stylesheet registry accepts a configurable root and reclassifies registered sheets when it changes. The server exports setStylesheetRoot. Tests cover classification, revision updates, and bundle contents and hashes.
Set the root before CLI app imports
packages/cli/src/app-load.ts, packages/cli/src/prerender-app-root.test.ts, CHANGELOG.md, .gitignore
loadApp sets the root before importing app modules. An integration test checks prerendered links and CSS contents. The changelog describes the correction, and .gitignore excludes the test fixture.

Resolve a relative root before classifying an absolute stylesheet path.

If loadApp('.') runs from /app, the scan supplies a path such as /app/apps/web/site/page.module.scss. The root . does not match that path. surfaceOf then reads the leading /app/ segment and classifies the site sheet as app. Resolve a relative root against the working directory before the prefix comparison.

loadApp('.') from /app named a relative root, which is a prefix of no absolute
path the Bun plugin hands the loader, so classification fell back to the
absolute path and the /app/ segment won again. Found in review of #528.
