Codebase Architecture Refactoring Complete 🏗️
Published on December 13, 2025 by David Rug

The past weeks have been spent on a comprehensive refactoring of the entire InterBrain codebase. While invisible to users, this work is foundational for everything that comes next.


Before & After


The codebase has been transformed from scattered files to self-contained feature slices.

Before: Scattered Architecture


Problems:
• Commands separated from the features they serve
• Monolithic files with mixed responsibilities
• Hard to know where to find or add functionality

After: Vertical Slice Architecture


Each feature now owns its commands, services, components, state, and documentation - all in one place.



Documentation & Navigability


Every feature now has comprehensive documentation organized in a clear cascade:



Both human contributors and AI agents can now navigate from high-level overview down to implementation details. This dramatically improves development velocity - whether fixing bugs, adding features, or understanding how things work.


By the Numbers


What's Next: Private Beta


This refactoring lays the foundation to prepare the InterBrain for a private beta launch. Clean architecture and comprehensive documentation mean faster iteration on user feedback.

The last steps before launching:

1. Onboarding Tutorial - A guided introduction for new users
2. Feedback Pipeline - Making it effortless for testers to report issues
3. Known Issues - Fixing remaining bugs that affect core functionality

The private beta will be a small group of testers helping identify rough edges before broader release. Stay tuned for the announcement!
