+## Architecture
+- Deno-based backend with `deno.json` for imports and tasks
+- Frontend bundled with `@git.zone/tsbundle` (esbuild, base64ts output mode)
+- Config in `.smartconfig.json` (renamed from npmextra.json as of 2026-03-24)
+- Tests run with `deno task test` (not tstest)
+- Docker image built with `@git.zone/tsdocker`
+
+## Build Tools Config
+- `.smartconfig.json` contains config for `@git.zone/tsbundle`, `@git.zone/tswatch`, and `@git.zone/tsdocker`
+- tsbundle uses base64ts output mode for Deno compile embedding
+- tswatch runs backend watcher with `deno run --allow-all mod.ts server --ephemeral`
+
+## Dependencies (as of 2026-03-24)
+- devDependencies: tsbundle@2.10.0, tsdocker@2.2.4, tswatch@3.3.2
+- No tsconfig.json — uses compilerOptions in deno.json

+## 🔗 Cluster Mode
+
+objectstorage supports distributed storage across multiple nodes with automatic failover and data redundancy.
+
+### How it works
+
+1. **Enable clustering** on each node with `OBJST_CLUSTER_ENABLED=true`
+2. **Point nodes at each other** using `OBJST_CLUSTER_SEED_NODES` — nodes discover the full cluster from any seed
+3. **Configure drives** per node with `OBJST_DRIVE_PATHS` — each drive is independently managed
+4. **Erasure coding** splits objects into data + parity shards across drives and nodes
+
+### Example: 3-node cluster
+
+```bash
+# Node 1
+docker run -d --name objst-node1 \
+  -p 9000:9000 -p 3000:3000 -p 4433:4433/udp \
+  -v /mnt/disk1:/drive1 -v /mnt/disk2:/drive2 \
+  -e OBJST_CLUSTER_ENABLED=true \
+  -e OBJST_CLUSTER_NODE_ID=node-1 \
+  -e OBJST_CLUSTER_SEED_NODES=node2:4433,node3:4433 \
+  -e OBJST_DRIVE_PATHS=/drive1,/drive2 \
+  -e OBJST_ACCESS_KEY=myadminkey \
+  -e OBJST_SECRET_KEY=mysupersecret \
+  code.foss.global/lossless.zone/objectstorage:latest
+
+# Node 2 and Node 3 — same pattern, different node IDs and seed nodes
+```
+
+### Erasure coding presets
+
+| Config | Data Shards | Parity Shards | Overhead | Fault Tolerance |
+|---|---|---|---|---|
+| Default | 4 | 2 | 50% | 2 failures |
+| High durability | 6 | 3 | 50% | 3 failures |
+| Minimal | 2 | 1 | 50% | 1 failure |
+
+### Inter-node transport
+
+Cluster communication uses **QUIC** (UDP port 4433 by default) with:
+- Auto-generated TLS certificates
+- Multiplexed streams with flow-control backpressure
+- Heartbeat-based failure detection (default: 5s interval, 30s timeout)
+
