πŸ“Š sveltekit Γ— data-platform

Ship data platform on SvelteKit with sensible defaults.

SvelteKit is a TypeScript workable choice for data platform. GreatCTO auto-detects both β€” adds the data-platform archetype overlay, wires data-platform-specific gates, and runs 83 specialist agents around your existing SvelteKit workflow.

What changes when GreatCTO joins your SvelteKit project

Detection β†’ overlay β†’ gates β†’ reviewers.

1 Β· DETECT

Stack + archetype

GreatCTO reads your package.json and detects sveltekit + data-platform archetype from signals: imports, file structure, env vars, README hints.

2 Β· OVERLAY

Archetype pack

Attaches the data-platform archetype overlay: archetype-specific reviewer + compliance gates. Override if your specifics differ; the defaults are sensible for SvelteKit-style projects.

3 Β· GATES

SvelteKit-aware reviewers

qa-engineer runs tsc --strict / eslint / vitest --coverage; security-officer checks for prototype pollution + XSS sinks; performance-engineer reviews bundle size + cold-start times.

4 Β· MEMORY

Cross-project lessons

Bugs you've hit before in other SvelteKit projects (connection-pool exhaustion, ORM N+1 queries, retry storms) β€” the agent's Step 0 includes the prior detection order. MTTR drops 94 % on second occurrence (methodology).

⚐ gate:plan β€” your approval needed

Approve β†’ 3 senior-devs run in parallel worktrees β†’ 5 reviewers fan out in parallel β†’ gate:ship β†’ deploy. One real run walked stage-by-stage: /proof.

What ships

The first feature, SvelteKit-idiomatic.

This is the shape of what senior-dev drafts for "data-platform feature" β€” auth first, schema validation, and the audit line the data-platform reviewer requires before gate:ship opens.

// src/routes/data-platform/+server.ts β€” drafted by senior-dev, reviewed by 5 agents
import { json } from '@sveltejs/kit';
import { requireUser } from '$lib/auth';      // security-officer: auth before handler
import { auditLog } from '$lib/audit';        // gate:data-platform: every decision logged

export async function POST({ request, locals }) {
  const user = requireUser(locals);
  const body = schema.parse(await request.json());  // qa-engineer: zod enforced
  const result = await handle(body, user);
  await auditLog({ who: user.id, what: 'data-platform feature', confidence: result.confidence });
  return json(result);
}
Where this combo lands

What teams build with SvelteKit + the data-platform overlay.

1

dbt warehouses with model contracts and lineage.

2

Airflow / Spark pipelines with PII detection in logs.

3

BI layers with GDPR retention enforcement.

⚠ Honest caveat

SvelteKit (TypeScript) is not a typical fit for data platform. The archetype overlay still attaches, but you may want to override defaults more aggressively. Check the data-platform archetype page for the typical stack list and decide if your case is the right tool / right archetype.

Architecture

Every step of the pipeline, transparent.

No black-box "AI does it all" loop. GreatCTO is a deterministic state machine β€” 8 stages, 22 nodes, 2 human gates. Every node maps to a real agent on GitHub. Inspect the state machine β†’

Install

SvelteKit + GreatCTO in one command.

$ npx great-cto init

Free, MIT, runs locally. Built as a Claude Code plugin β€” install with one command.
