byndr-dev

An open platform for EPLAN teams, built on Cloudflare — data enrichment and automations in one place.

⚠️ Work in progress — largely conceptual. The design below describes where this is going; only the Foundation (Stage 1) is implemented today. Interfaces and scope will change. See ARCHITECTURE.md for the roadmap.

Why

EPLAN article databases are full of gaps: missing translations and descriptions. And useful events (a PDF export, a BOM change) never leave the desktop. byndr-dev tackles both:

• Data + Gym. Ingest a read-only snapshot of your article database, then let an LLM close text gaps (translations, descriptions) through an MCP server. The validators are deterministic and run on the server — the model proposes, the server decides. Proposals are reviewed like pull requests; once a human approves, the change is queued and a small local client writes it back into EPLAN.
• Automations. Route EPLAN events (PDF/BOM exports, project events) to where an engineering team actually looks — Microsoft Teams, email, a shared drive, or a plain webhook you control.

Principles

• The cloud never writes to EPLAN. It produces proposals and a write queue; a local client applies only human-approved changes.
• Overlay, never mutation. The gym's only output is proposals; it never edits ingested data.
• Your data stays yours. Real article data lives in a private database, never in this repository. You bring your own.
• Per-tenant from day one.

Quickstart (development)

npm install
npm run dev          # local worker
npm test             # run the test suite

Create a tenant (prints its API key once):

node scripts/create-tenant.mjs "My Team"

Self-hosting

byndr-dev runs on Cloudflare (Workers + D1 + Durable Objects); deploy it to your own Cloudflare account with Wrangler (see Quickstart). For teams that cannot use the cloud, a fully-local runtime via workerd / Miniflare — the same runtime the test suite already uses — is on the roadmap. Note: Wrangler configuration uses TOML or JSON(C), not YAML.
