AI Integration

Leverage the power of AI with SeanStack's pattern metadata system. Every pattern is designed to work seamlessly with AI assistants for intelligent development.

How AI Integration Works

Pattern Metadata

Each pattern includes comprehensive metadata that describes its purpose, dependencies, and relationships.

{
  "name": "auth-form",
  "version": "1.2.0",
  "description": "Authentication form with validation",
  "dependencies": ["@seanstack/ui", "zod"],
  "customizable": ["styles", "validation", "fields"],
  "relationships": ["user-profile", "dashboard"]
}

Context Awareness

AI assistants can understand your entire project structure and make intelligent suggestions based on context.

Understands project structure
Recognizes customizations
Suggests compatible patterns
Maintains consistency
