## 🏗️ Architecture

### Core Components

**Database Layer (`core/`)**
- `models.py` - SQLModel entities: Workspace, Message, LLMProviderConfig, Model, Setting, PromptTemplate
- `db.py` - Database engine, session management, and initialization
- `migration.py` - Alembic integration for schema migrations

**Repository Layer (`repositories/`)**
- CRUD operations for each entity
- Direct database access abstraction
- Files: `workspace.py`, `message.py`, `llm_provider_config.py`, `model.py`, `setting.py`, `prompt_template.py`

**Service Layer (`services/`)**
- Business logic and use cases
- Orchestrates repositories and external APIs
- Files: `workspace.py`, `chat.py`, `config.py`, `model_manager.py`, `provider_manager.py`, `prompt_manager.py`

**Adapter Layer (`adapters/`)**
- LangChain integration
- `base.py` - Abstract LLMAdapter interface
- `ollama.py` - Ollama-specific implementation

**TUI Layer (`tui/`)**
- Textual-based user interface
- `app.py` - Main TUI application
- `screens/` - UI screens for model/provider management
- `widgets/` - Custom UI components (chat bubbles, etc.)
- `styles/` - TCSS styling files
