memstead_cli/

setup.rs

//! Engine setup from global CLI flags. Produces an `Engine`
//! synchronously (no tokio) for the CLI to call into directly.
//!
//! Post-rebuild there is one workspace marker: `.memstead/workspace.toml`
//! at the workspace root. The `mem-repo` Cargo feature decides
//! which engine factory consumes it — full routes through
//! [`memstead_git_branch::workspace_store::engine_from_workspace_root`]
//! (git-branch backends plus folder + archive), lean routes through
//! [`memstead_base::Engine::from_workspace_root`] (folder + archive
//! only).
//!
//! [`CliEngine`] wraps either flavour; subcommands match-dispatch on
//! it. The `WorkspaceShape` variant is retained so the lean build
//! can still surface an actionable "this is the lean binary, your
//! workspace has git-branch mounts" error when the operator points a
//! lean binary at a full workspace — the shape tag is derived from
//! `mem-repo/.git` co-existing with the marker rather than the
//! marker itself.
