itsrubberduck a4da7e76ee docs: Backend-Repo unter seinem aktuellen Namen nennen
GitHub hat OpenSquawk-LiveATC-api in OpenSquawk-API umbenannt. Der Link im
README zeigte nur noch über den Redirect dorthin — für ein öffentliches
Self-Host-Repo ist das die falsche erste Anlaufstelle.

OpenSquawk - Project Guide

Architecture

  • Nuxt 4 (Vue 3 SFC) frontend in /app
  • H3 server handlers in /server
  • Shared types/utils in /shared
  • MongoDB models in /server/models
  • Python backend (OpenSquawk-API) — owns PM session state and routing decisions; runs on http://127.0.0.1:8000

Key Files

  • /shared/utils/communicationsEngine.ts — Core state machine composable (used by /pm live ATC). Drives local cursor and TTS; Python backend owns the authoritative state.
  • /app/composables/useRadioBackend.ts — Typed wrapper around the Python backend REST API (createSession, transmit, deleteSession, fetchFlows)
  • /server/utils/openai.tsgetOpenAIClient() only (TTS via /api/atc/say, STT via /api/atc/ptt). The old routeDecision() LLM router has been removed; routing lives in the Python backend.
  • /server/services/decisionFlowService.ts — Builds/edits MongoDB-backed decision trees for the flow editor (/server/api/editor/flows*). There is no Nuxt /api/decision-flows/runtime route — /pm fetches the runtime flow directly from the Python backend.
  • /app/pages/pm.vue — Live ATC page (speech-to-text, PTT, text input)
  • /app/pages/classroom.vue — Classroom learning mode (separate system, does NOT use communicationsEngine)

Live ATC Flow (/pm) — current

  1. startMonitoring()fetchRuntimeTree('icao_atc_decision_tree', radioBackendUrl) loads the YAML flow from Python backend into the local engine (for cursor tracking / TTS)
  2. startMonitoring()radioBackend.createSession('icao_atc_decision_tree') creates an authoritative server-side session; stores backendSessionId
  3. User inputs (PTT or text) → handlePilotTransmission()
  4. radioBackend.transmit(backendSessionId, transcript) → Python backend runs regex routing, readback evaluation, and side effects; returns next_state_id, controller_say_template, auto_advanced_states, flags
  5. moveToSilent(stateId) called for each auto-advanced state then the final state — advances local cursor without triggering further auto-transitions
  6. scheduleControllerSpeech(controller_say_template) speaks the ATC reply via TTS
  7. PTT path: STT still goes to Nuxt (POST /api/atc/ptt); transcription result then calls step 4

Decision Tree States

States have role: 'pilot' | 'atc' | 'system'. The engine supports two template field naming conventions:

  • Old schema: say_tpl, utterance_tpl (MongoDB/legacy)
  • New schema: say_template, expected_pilot_template (Python backend YAML)

Both are handled transparently by stateSayTpl() and stateUtteranceTpl() helpers in communicationsEngine.ts.

Template variables use {{variable}} (new) or {variable} (old) — both are rendered by renderTpl().

Transitions: next, ok_next, bad_next, timer_next, auto_transitions.

Environment Variables

  • NUXT_PUBLIC_RADIO_BACKEND_URL — URL of the Python backend (default http://127.0.0.1:8000)

Commands

  • bun run dev — dev server (Nuxt)
  • Python backend: see OpenSquawk-API/README.md
