Subject: [PATCH 1/4] feat: add thin CLI for Hatch

Implements CLI commands that wrap the JSON API layer:
- hatch capture <url> - Send request to endpoint and store it
- hatch inspect <endpoint> - Fetch requests as JSON
- hatch search <endpoint> - Search captured traffic
- hatch replay <request-id> - Replay a captured request
- hatch mock set <endpoint> - Configure mock response
- hatch doc generate <endpoint> - Output OpenAPI spec

Uses stdlib flag package for CLI parsing (boring tools philosophy).
All commands talk to running Hatch server via HTTP.

Subject: [PATCH 2/4] Clean up external tooling references from public-facing
 docs

- Remove Co-Authored-By line from CONTRIBUTING.md example
- Remove workspace access line from onboarding.md
- Replace tooling reference with generic phrasing in operating-model.md
- Add .mailmap to map ceo@paperclip.ing to ceo@elfoundation.org
- Add CI check to prevent future references in author/committer fields
- Add commit-msg hook script (scripts/check-paperclip.sh)

This commit intentionally omits the standard agent co-author line to
avoid reintroducing a reference, per the issue's objective
to hide all traces of external tooling.

+## Release Process
+
+### Creating a Release
+
+1. **Update CHANGELOG.md** with the new version and changes
+2. **Create a git tag** for the version:
+   ```bash
+   git tag -a v1.0.0 -m "Release v1.0.0"
+   git push origin v1.0.0
+   ```
+3. **GitHub Actions will automatically**:
+   - Build binaries for all platforms
+   - Create SHA256 checksums
+   - Generate SBOM
+   - Create GitHub Release with assets
+
+### Manual Release
+
+For manual releases or testing:
+
+```bash
+# Trigger workflow manually
+gh workflow run release.yml -f tag=v1.0.0
+
+# Or create tag and push
+git tag -a v1.0.0 -m "Release v1.0.0"
+git push origin v1.0.0
+```
+
+### Platform Support
+
+| Platform | Architecture | Binary Name |
+|----------|--------------|-------------|

 Caddy terminates TLS and reverse-proxies to the Hatch Go binary. The Hatch container only listens on `127.0.0.1:8080` — it's never directly exposed to the internet.
 
+## CLI Reference
+
+Hatch includes a powerful CLI for interacting with the server from the command line:
+
+```bash
+# Capture requests
+hatch capture https://api.example.com/webhook
+
+# Inspect captured traffic
+hatch inspect my-webhook
+
+# Search for specific requests
+hatch search my-webhook -query 'status:500'
+
+# Replay requests to other services
+hatch replay <request-id> -endpoint my-webhook -target https://httpbin.org/post
+
+# Configure mock responses
+hatch mock set my-webhook -status 200 -body '{"ok":true}'
+
+# Generate OpenAPI documentation
+hatch doc generate my-webhook > openapi.json
+```
+
+For detailed CLI documentation, see [docs/engineering/cli.md](docs/engineering/cli.md).

+# CLI Troubleshooting Guide
+
+Comprehensive troubleshooting guide for Hatch CLI issues.
+
+## Quick Diagnostics
+
+### Health Check
+
+First, verify the Hatch server is running and accessible:
+
+```bash
+# Check if server is responding
+curl -s http://localhost:8080/healthz
+
+# Expected output: ok
+
+# If using custom URL
+curl -s $HATCH_URL/healthz
+```
+
+### Version Check
+
+Verify you're using the correct version:
+
+```bash
+hatch version
+# Expected output: hatch v0.1.0
+
+# Check if binary is working
+hatch --help
+```
+
+### Connectivity Test
+
+Test network connectivity to the server:
+
+```bash
+# Test with verbose output
+curl -v http://localhost:8080/healthz
+
+# Test with specific timeout
+curl --connect-timeout 5 http://localhost:8080/healthz
+```
+
+## Common Error Messages
+
+### Connection Issues
+
+#### `Error: request failed: connection refused`
+
+**Cause:** The Hatch server is not running or not accessible.
+
+**Solutions:**
+
+1. Start the Hatch server:
+   ```bash
+   hatch serve
+   ```
+
+2. Check if the server is listening on the expected port:
+   ```bash
+   # Linux/macOS
+   netstat -tlnp | grep 8080
+   # or
+   lsof -i :8080
+   
+   # Windows
+   netstat -ano | findstr :8080
+   ```
+
+3. Verify the HATCH_URL environment variable:
+   ```bash
+   echo $HATCH_URL
+   # Should be http://localhost:8080 or your server URL
+   ```
+
+4. Check firewall settings:
+   ```bash
+   # Linux
+   sudo iptables -L -n | grep 8080
+   
+   # macOS
+   sudo pfctl -sr | grep 8080
+   ```
+
+#### `Error: request failed: dial tcp: lookup localhost: no such host`
+
+**Cause:** DNS resolution failure.
+
+**Solutions:**
+
+1. Use IP address instead of hostname:
+   ```bash
+   export HATCH_URL=http://127.0.0.1:8080
+   ```
+
+2. Check `/etc/hosts` file:
+   ```bash
+   grep localhost /etc/hosts
+   # Should contain: 127.0.0.1 localhost
+   ```
+
+#### `Error: request failed: context deadline exceeded`
+
+**Cause:** Request timeout.
+
+**Solutions:**
+
+1. Check server load:
+   ```bash
+   top -bn1 | grep hatch
+   ```
+
+2. Increase timeout (if using curl):
+   ```bash
+   curl --max-time 30 http://localhost:8080/healthz
+   ```
+
+3. Check network latency:
+   ```bash
+   ping localhost
+   ```
+
+### Authentication Errors
+
+#### `Error (HTTP 401): unauthorized`
+
+**Cause:** Authentication required but not provided.
+
+**Solutions:**
+
+1. Check if authentication is enabled:
+   ```bash
+   # Check server configuration
+   docker exec hatch-container env | grep AUTH
+   ```
+
+2. Provide authentication token:
+   ```bash
+   # For API requests
+   curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $HATCH_AUTH_TOKEN" http://localhost:8080/v1/endpoints
+   ```
+
+3. For development, disable authentication:
+   ```bash
+   # Start server without auth
+   HATCH_AUTH_ENABLED=false hatch serve
+   ```
+
+#### `Error (HTTP 403): forbidden`
+
+**Cause:** Insufficient permissions.
+
+**Solutions:**
+
+1. Check user roles and permissions
+2. Verify API token has required scopes
+3. Contact administrator for access
+
+### Request/Response Errors
+
+#### `Error (HTTP 400): bad request`
+
+**Cause:** Invalid request format.
+
+**Solutions:**
+
+1. Validate JSON format:
+   ```bash
+   echo '{"invalid":json}' | jq .
+   # Should show parse error
+   ```
+
+2. Check Content-Type header:
+   ```bash
+   curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"valid":"json"}' ...
+   ```
+
+3. Verify request body size:
+   ```bash
+   # Check body size
+   echo -n '{"data":"..."}' | wc -c
+   ```
+
+#### `Error (HTTP 404): endpoint not found`
+
+**Cause:** Requested resource doesn't exist.
+
+**Solutions:**
+
+1. List available endpoints:
+   ```bash
+   curl http://localhost:8080/v1/endpoints
+   ```
+
+2. Check endpoint ID spelling:
+   ```bash
+   # Case-sensitive
+   hatch inspect MyEndpoint  # Wrong
+   hatch inspect myendpoint  # Correct
+   ```
+
+3. Verify endpoint has captured requests:
+   ```bash
+   hatch inspect myendpoint -limit 1
+   ```
+
+#### `Error (HTTP 413): payload too large`
+
+**Cause:** Request body exceeds size limit.
+
+**Solutions:**
+
+1. Reduce request body size
+2. Compress data before sending
+3. Split into smaller chunks
+
+#### `Error (HTTP 429): too many requests`
+
+**Cause:** Rate limiting.
+
+**Solutions:**
+
+1. Implement backoff:
+   ```bash
+   # Exponential backoff script
+   for i in {1..5}; do
+     sleep $((2**i))
+     hatch capture /api -body '{"retry":'$i'}' && break
+   done
+   ```
+
+2. Check rate limit headers:
+   ```bash
+   curl -I http://localhost:8080/v1/endpoints
+   # Look for X-RateLimit-* headers
+   ```
+
+### Data Errors
+
+#### `Error: invalid character '}' looking for beginning of value`
+
+**Cause:** Malformed JSON in request body.
+
+**Solutions:**
+
+1. Validate JSON:
+   ```bash
+   echo '{"key":"value"}' | jq .
+   ```
+
+2. Use proper escaping:
+   ```bash
+   # Bash
+   hatch capture /api -body '{"key":"value with \"quotes\""}'
+   
+   # Use file input
+   echo '{"key":"value"}' > request.json
+   hatch capture /api -body @request.json
+   ```
+
+3. Check for invisible characters:
+   ```bash
+   cat -A request.json
+   ```
+
+#### `Error: unexpected end of JSON input`
+
+**Cause:** Incomplete JSON response.
+
+**Solutions:**
+
+1. Check server logs for errors
+2. Verify network connection wasn't interrupted
+3. Try with smaller payload
+
+### Storage Errors
+
+#### `Error: database is locked`
+
+**Cause:** SQLite database contention.
+
+**Solutions:**
+
+1. Reduce concurrent operations
+2. Check for long-running transactions:
+   ```bash
+   # Monitor database locks
+   sqlite3 hatch.db "PRAGMA journal_mode=WAL;"
+   ```
+
+3. Consider using PostgreSQL for production
+
+#### `Error: no space left on device`
+
+**Cause:** Disk space exhausted.
+
+**Solutions:**
+
+1. Check disk space:
+   ```bash
+   df -h
+   du -sh /var/lib/hatch
+   ```
+
+2. Clean old data:
+   ```bash
+   # Remove requests older than 7 days
+   curl -X DELETE "http://localhost:8080/v1/endpoints/myendpoint/requests?older_than=7d"
+   ```
+
+3. Configure data retention:
+   ```bash
+   # Set retention policy
+   HATCH_RETENTION_DAYS=30 hatch serve
+   ```
+

+  -body '{"event":"user.created","data":{"id":123}}'
+```
+
+**URL Handling:**
+
+- Full URLs: `https://api.example.com/webhook` → endpoint ID derived from path
+- Relative paths: `/my-endpoint` → used directly as endpoint ID
+- Empty/`/` → defaults to `default` endpoint
+
+### `hatch inspect <endpoint>`
+
+Fetch captured requests as JSON.
+
+**Options:**
+
+- `-limit N`: Maximum number of requests to return (default: 100)
+

+hatch inspect my-webhook -limit 10
+
+# Pretty-print JSON output
+hatch inspect my-webhook | jq .
+```
+
+**Output Format:**
+
+```json
+[
+  {
+    "id": "abc123",
+    "method": "POST",
+    "path": "/webhook",

+    "created_at": "2024-01-15T10:30:00Z"
+  }
+]
+```
+
+### `hatch search <endpoint>`
+
+Search captured traffic with query syntax.
+
+**Options:**

+| `POST` | Filter by HTTP method |
+| `user.created` | Search in request body |
+| `Content-Type:application/json` | Filter by header |
+
+**Examples:**
+
+```bash
+# Find all 500 errors
+hatch search my-webhook -query 'status:500'
+
+# Find POST requests
+hatch search my-webhook -query 'POST'
+
+# Search for specific content in body
+hatch search my-webhook -query 'user.created'
+
+# Combine queries
+hatch search my-webhook -query 'status:500 POST'
+```
+
+### `hatch replay <request-id>`
+
+Replay a previously captured request to a target URL.
+
+**Options:**
+
+- `-endpoint ENDPOINT`: Source endpoint ID (required)
+- `-target URL`: Target URL to replay to (required)
+
+**Examples:**
+
+```bash
+# Replay a request
+hatch replay abc123 -endpoint my-webhook -target https://httpbin.org/post
+
+# Replay to a local development server
+hatch replay def456 -endpoint api-calls -target http://localhost:3000/webhook
+
+# Replay to a different environment
+hatch replay ghi789 -endpoint production-webhook -target https://staging.example.com/webhook
+```
+
+**Use Cases:**
+
+- Test webhook handlers in development
+- Reproduce bugs by replaying failed requests
+- Load testing with captured traffic patterns
+- Migrating traffic between environments
+
+### `hatch mock set <endpoint>`
+
+Configure mock responses for an endpoint.
+
+**Options:**
+
+- `-status CODE`: HTTP status code (default: 200)
+- `-body BODY`: Response body (string or base64)
+- `-header KEY:VALUE`: Response header (repeatable)
+
+**Examples:**
+
+```bash
+# Return 200 with JSON body
+hatch mock set my-webhook -status 200 -body '{"ok":true}'
+
+# Return error response
+hatch mock set my-webhook -status 500 -body '{"error":"internal error"}'
+
+# Return with custom headers
+hatch mock set my-webhook \
+  -status 200 \
+  -header 'X-RateLimit-Remaining:100' \
+  -header 'Cache-Control:no-cache'
+
+# Simulate rate limiting
+hatch mock set my-webhook \
+  -status 429 \
+  -header 'Retry-After:60' \
+  -body '{"error":"rate limited"}'
+```
+
+**Mock Behavior:**
+
+- Once configured, all requests to the endpoint return the mock response
+- Mock configuration persists until server restart or explicit reconfiguration
+- Original request capture continues alongside mock responses
+
+### `hatch doc generate <endpoint>`
+
+Generate OpenAPI 3.1 specification for an endpoint based on captured traffic.
+
+**Examples:**
+
+```bash
+# Generate OpenAPI spec
+hatch doc generate my-webhook
+
+# Save to file
+hatch doc generate my-webhook > openapi.json
+
+# Use with Swagger UI
+hatch doc generate my-webhook > openapi.json
+docker run -p 8081:8080 -e SWAGGER_JSON=/openapi.json -v $(pwd):/usr/share/nginx/html/swagger swaggerapi/swagger-ui
+```
+
+**Output:**
+
+Generates a complete OpenAPI 3.1 JSON specification including:
+
+- All captured request/response patterns
+- Schema definitions inferred from traffic
+- Example values from real requests
+- Endpoint documentation
+
+## Common Workflows
+
+### Development Environment Setup
+
+```bash
+# 1. Start Hatch server
+hatch serve &
+
+# 2. Capture incoming webhooks
+hatch capture /api/webhooks -method POST -body '{"test":true}'
+
+# 3. Inspect captured traffic
+hatch inspect api/webhooks
+
+# 4. Configure mock for frontend development
+hatch mock set api/webhooks -status 200 -body '{"status":"ok"}'
+```
+
+### Bug Reproduction
+
+```bash
+# 1. Find the failing request
+hatch search api/payments -query 'status:500'
+
+# 2. Get request details
+hatch inspect api/payments -limit 5
+
+# 3. Replay to debug
+hatch replay <request-id> -endpoint api/payments -target http://localhost:8080/debug
+```
+
+### API Documentation Generation
+
+```bash
+# 1. Capture representative traffic
+for endpoint in users posts comments; do
+  curl -X POST http://hatch:8080/$endpoint -d '{"sample":"data"}'
+done
+
+# 2. Generate OpenAPI specs
+hatch doc generate users > users-api.json
+hatch doc generate posts > posts-api.json
+
+# 3. Combine into single spec (using jq)
+jq -s '.[0] * .[1]' users-api.json posts-api.json > combined-api.json
+```
+
+### Load Testing Preparation
+
+```bash
+# 1. Capture production traffic patterns
+hatch inspect api/critical-path -limit 1000 > traffic.json
+
+# 2. Extract request patterns
+jq -r '.[] | "\(.method) \(.path)"' traffic.json | sort | uniq -c | sort -rn
+
+# 3. Replay to load testing tool
+hatch inspect api/critical-path -limit 100 | \
+  jq -r '.[] | "hatch replay \(.id) -endpoint api/critical-path -target https://loadtest.example.com"'
+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Connection Issues
+
+**Problem:** `Error: request failed: connection refused`
+
+**Solution:** Ensure the Hatch server is running:
+
+```bash
+# Check if server is running
+curl http://localhost:8080/healthz
+
+# Start server if not running
+hatch serve
+```
+
+### Authentication Errors
+
+**Problem:** `Error (HTTP 401): unauthorized`
+
+**Solution:** Check if your Hatch instance requires authentication:
+
+```bash
+# For local development, ensure no auth is configured
+# For production, check HATCH_AUTH_TOKEN environment variable
+```
+
+### Request Not Found
+
+**Problem:** `Error (HTTP 404): endpoint not found`
+
+**Solution:** Verify the endpoint ID exists:
+
+```bash
+# List available endpoints
+curl http://localhost:8080/v1/endpoints
+
+# Check if endpoint has captured requests
+hatch inspect <endpoint-id> -limit 1
+```
+
+### JSON Parsing Errors
+
+**Problem:** `Error: invalid character '}' looking for beginning of value`
+
+**Solution:** Ensure request body is valid JSON:
+
+```bash
+# Use proper JSON escaping
+hatch capture /api -body '{"key":"value"}'
+
+# Or use a file
+hatch capture /api -body @request.json
+```
+
+### Permission Denied on Binary
+
+**Problem:** `Permission denied: ./hatch`
+
+**Solution:** Make the binary executable:
+
+```bash
+chmod +x hatch
+# Or move to a directory in PATH
+sudo mv hatch /usr/local/bin/
+```

+
+## Integration Guides
+
+### Stripe Webhooks
+
+See [Webhook Integration - Stripe Example](webhook-integration.md#example-1-stripe-webhook-testing)
+
+### GitHub Webhooks
+
+See [Webhook Integration - GitHub Example](webhook-integration.md#example-2-github-webhook-debugging)
+
+### Slack Integration
+
+See [Webhook Integration - Slack Example](webhook-integration.md#example-3-slack-integration-testing)
+
+## Use Cases
+
+### 1. Development Environment
+
+Use Hatch as a local mock server for frontend development.
+
+```bash
+# Configure mocks for your API
+hatch mock set api/users -status 200 -body '[]'
+hatch mock set api/auth -status 200 -body '{"token":"mock-token"}'
+
+# Frontend code uses http://localhost:8080 as API base
+```
+
+### 2. Testing & QA
+
+Capture production traffic patterns and replay them in testing.
+
+```bash
+# Capture traffic
+hatch inspect api/critical-path -limit 1000 > traffic.json
+
+# Replay in test environment
+cat traffic.json | jq -r '.[].id' | while read id; do
+  hatch replay "$id" -endpoint api/critical-path -target http://staging:8080
+done
+```
+
+### 3. API Documentation
+
+Generate OpenAPI specs from real traffic.
+
+```bash
+# Capture representative traffic
+hatch capture /api/users -method GET
+hatch capture /api/users -method POST -body '{"name":"test"}'
+
+# Generate documentation
+hatch doc generate api/users > users-api.json
+```
+
+### 4. Load Testing
+
+Replay captured traffic for load testing.
+
+```bash
+# Capture production patterns
+hatch inspect api/critical-path -limit 1000 > load-test-traffic.json
+
+# Create load test script
+cat > load-test.sh << 'EOF'
+#!/bin/bash
+for i in {1..100}; do
+  hatch inspect api/critical-path -limit 10 | \
+    jq -r '.[] | "hatch replay \(.id) -endpoint api/critical-path -target http://loadtest:8080"' | \
+    bash &
+done
+wait
+EOF
+chmod +x load-test.sh
+```
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Use descriptive endpoint names**
+   ```bash
+   # Good
+   hatch capture /webhooks/stripe-payments
+   hatch capture /api/v2/users
+   
+   # Bad
+   hatch capture /a
+   hatch capture /test
+   ```
+
+2. **Include relevant headers**
+   ```bash
+   hatch capture /webhooks/github \
+     -header 'X-GitHub-Event:push' \
+     -header 'X-Hub-Signature:sha1=abc123'
+   ```
+
+3. **Organize by environment**
+   ```bash
+   # Development
+   hatch mock set dev/api/users -status 200 -body '[]'
+   
+   # Staging
+   hatch mock set staging/api/users -status 200 -body '[{"id":1}]'
+   ```
+
+4. **Use search for debugging**
+   ```bash
+   # Find all errors
+   hatch search api/webhooks -query 'status:500'
+   
+   # Find specific events
+   hatch search webhooks/stripe -query 'payment_intent'
+   ```

+hatch capture /api/critical-path -limit 1000
+
+# Export traffic patterns
+hatch inspect api/critical-path -limit 1000 > traffic-patterns.json
+```
+
+### Analyze Traffic
+
+```bash
+# Analyze request distribution
+jq -r '.[] | "\(.method) \(.path)"' traffic-patterns.json | \
+  sort | uniq -c | sort -rn
+
+# Find slow requests (if timing data available)
+jq '.[] | select(.duration > 1000)' traffic-patterns.json
+
+# Identify error patterns
+jq '.[] | select(.status >= 400)' traffic-patterns.json
+```
+
+### Replay for Load Testing
+
+```bash
+# Create load test script
+cat > load-test.sh << 'EOF'
+#!/bin/bash
+ENDPOINT="api/critical-path"
+TARGET="https://loadtest.example.com"
+REQUESTS=$(hatch inspect $ENDPOINT -limit 100)
+
+echo "$REQUESTS" | jq -r '.[] | .id' | while read -r id; do
+  echo "Replaying request $id"
+  hatch replay "$id" -endpoint "$ENDPOINT" -target "$TARGET"
+  sleep 0.1  # Rate limiting
+done
+EOF
+
+chmod +x load-test.sh
+./load-test.sh
+```
+

+
+Set up a comprehensive mock server for frontend development.
+
+### Create Mock Endpoints
+
+```bash
+# User API mock
+hatch mock set api/users \
+  -status 200 \
+  -header 'Content-Type:application/json' \
+  -body '[
+    {"id":1,"name":"John Doe","email":"john@example.com"},
+    {"id":2,"name":"Jane Smith","email":"jane@example.com"}
+  ]'
+
+# Authentication mock
+hatch mock set api/auth \
+  -status 200 \
+  -header 'Content-Type:application/json' \
+  -body '{"token":"mock-jwt-token-123","expires_in":3600}'
+
+# Error responses
+hatch mock set api/errors \
+  -status 401 \
+  -header 'Content-Type:application/json' \
+  -body '{"error":"unauthorized","message":"Invalid credentials"}'
+```
+
+### Frontend Integration
+
+```javascript
+// Frontend code using mock API
+const API_BASE = 'http://localhost:8080';
+
+// Fetch users
+const response = await fetch(`${API_BASE}/api/users`);
+const users = await response.json();
+
+// Login
+const loginResponse = await fetch(`${API_BASE}/api/auth`, {
+  method: 'POST',
+  headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' },
+  body: JSON.stringify({ email: 'user@example.com', password: 'pass' })
+});
+```
+
+## Best Practices
+
+### 1. Use Descriptive Endpoint Names
+
+```bash
+# Good
+hatch capture /webhooks/stripe-payments
+hatch capture /api/v2/users
+
+# Bad
+hatch capture /a
+hatch capture /test
+```
+
+### 2. Include Relevant Headers
+
+```bash
+# Capture with all relevant headers
+hatch capture /webhooks/github \
+  -header 'X-GitHub-Event:push' \
+  -header 'X-Hub-Signature:sha1=abc123' \
+  -header 'Content-Type:application/json'
+```
+
+### 3. Organize by Environment
+
+```bash
+# Development
+hatch mock set dev/api/users -status 200 -body '[]'
+
+# Staging
+hatch mock set staging/api/users -status 200 -body '[{"id":1}]'
+```
+
+### 4. Use Search for Debugging
+
+```bash
+# Find all errors
+hatch search api/webhooks -query 'status:500'
+
+# Find specific event types
+hatch search webhooks/stripe -query 'payment_intent'
+```
+
+### 5. Document Your Mocks
+
+```bash
+# Add comments to mock configuration
+hatch mock set api/users \
+  -status 200 \
+  -header 'X-Mock-Description:Returns list of test users'
+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Common Issues
+
+1. **Connection refused**: Ensure Hatch server is running (`hatch serve`)
+2. **Endpoint not found**: Check endpoint ID with `curl http://localhost:8080/v1/endpoints`
+3. **Request not captured**: Verify request format and headers
+4. **Mock not working**: Check if mock is configured for the correct endpoint
+
+### Debug Mode
+
+```bash
+# Enable debug logging
+DEBUG=true hatch serve
+
+# Check server logs
+docker logs -f hatch-container
+```
+
+### Performance Issues
+
+```bash
+# Limit concurrent connections
+hatch inspect api/heavy-endpoint -limit 10
+
+# Use pagination for large datasets
+hatch inspect api/large-dataset -limit 50
+```
