Express Layered API
Three modes — pick based on what the user asks:
| User says | Mode |
|---|---|
| "Set up backend", "scaffold API", "new project" | Mode 1 — Scaffold |
| "Add an API that…", "create endpoint for…", "add CRUD for…" | Mode 2 — Add API |
| "I have an app ready", "adopt this pattern", "create API files in my project" | Mode 0 — Existing project |
This is a minimal API-only starter — no Better Auth, no geo gate, no cron jobs, no email.
For ready-to-copy prompts, see examples.md.
Mode 0 — Existing Node.js app (adopt the pattern)
Use when the user already has a Node/Express app and wants API files created inside it — not a new project.
