Stellify

AI-Native Code Composition Platform

Stellify is a platform where code exists as structured JSON in a database rather than text files. This enables AI to compose and control and even stream applications using a combination of APIs and database queries.

How Stellify Works

Code as Structured Data

Traditional development stores code as text files. Stellify stores code as structured JSON in PostgreSQL/MySQL, enabling:

• Granular editing - Change individual statements without parsing entire files
• Deduplication - Detect identical code via content hashing
• AI-friendly - Structured data is easier for AI to understand and modify
• Visual editing - UI can directly edit JSON representation

Traditional Development:
Write code -> Store in .php files -> Version control -> Deploy

Stellify Development:
Design/code -> Store as JSON -> Assemble to PHP/JS -> Deploy
                    |
              Reuse proven components across projects

Data Model Hierarchy

Stellify organizes code into a clear hierarchy:

Project (Application Container)
├── Routes (Pages & API Endpoints)
│   ├── Elements (UI Components)
│   │   └── Elements (Nested children)
│   └── Controller binding -> Method
│
├── Directories (File Organization)
│   └── Files (Classes/Controllers)
│       └── Methods (Functions)
│           └── Statements (Code Lines)
│               └── Clauses (Code Fragments)

Elements System (Frontend)

Elements are hierarchical UI components stored as JSON. They represent HTML structure and can be assembled into Blade templates.

Type	Purpose	Example HTML
s-wrapper	Generic container	<div>, <span>, <section>
s-input	Form inputs	<input>, <textarea>, <select>
s-form	Form element	<form>
s-media	Images/video	<img>, <video>, <audio>
s-loop	Iteration	@foreach
s-directive	Blade directives	@auth, @if

Methods System (Backend)

Methods are PHP functions stored as structured JSON:

Statements = Individual lines of code
Clauses = Pieces of a statement

// Code: $user = User::create($data);

Statement {
  type: "assignment",
  clauses: [
    { value: "$user", type: "variable" },
    { value: "=", type: "operator" },
    { value: "User::create($data)", type: "method_call" },
    { value: ";", type: "terminator" }
  ]
}

MCP Integration

Stellify integrates with AI assistants via the Model Context Protocol (MCP). The MCP server allows Claude Desktop and Claude Code CLI to build applications through natural language.

Example:

User: "Create a contact form on my homepage"

Claude uses MCP to:
1. Create route (/contact)
2. Convert HTML to elements (form, inputs, button)
3. Link to backend controller

Result: Complete contact form built in Stellify
