What Docracy does

Docracy is built for low-friction signing:

• upload a PDF or start from a template
• add signers and place fields
• send a sequential signing chain with no signer account required
• email the finished PDF and completion certificate automatically

The free anonymous flow stores document state in Cloudflare KV, PDFs in R2, sends mail through Resend, and deletes documents after a short retention window. Paid workspaces add accounts, dashboard/history, AI features, reusable templates, automations, integrations, and team workflows.

Architecture

• apps/web — React + Vite frontend
• apps/worker — Cloudflare Worker API, cron reminders, billing hooks, D1 indexing for paid accounts
• apps/connector — remote MCP server
• packages/shared — shared types and HMAC token sign/verify logic

Core infra:

• Cloudflare KV for document state
• Cloudflare R2 for PDFs and uploads
• Cloudflare D1 for paid-account derived indexing only
• Cloudflare Pages for the frontend
• Resend for email delivery

Important design rules

• D1 is a derived index, never the source of truth.
• Anonymous/free documents do not depend on D1.
• Shared code is intentionally minimal; only cross-cutting token logic belongs in packages/shared.
• Never commit .env or .dev.vars.

Local development

npm install
cp apps/worker/.dev.vars.example apps/worker/.dev.vars
npm run dev:worker
npm run dev:web
npm run dev:connector

Without RESEND_API_KEY, outgoing emails are logged to the worker console instead.

Local URLs

• web: http://localhost:5173
• worker: http://127.0.0.1:8787

Typical local flow

1. Open http://localhost:5173/prepare
2. Upload a PDF
3. Add signers
4. Place fields
5. Submit
6. Copy signing links from the worker console
7. Complete the signing flow

Trigger the daily reminder cron locally

curl "http://127.0.0.1:8787/__scheduled?cron=0+8+*+*+*"

Tests

npm test

Deployment

Worker

npm run deploy:worker

Web

npm run deploy:web

Deploy from apps/web so Cloudflare Pages also bundles functions/ (the same-origin /api/* proxy). Uploading only dist/ from the repo root skips those functions and breaks API calls on the custom domain.

Connector

npm run deploy:connector

One-time setup checklist

• create a Resend account and API key
• provision Cloudflare KV, R2, and D1
• set worker secrets such as TOKEN_SECRET and RESEND_API_KEY
• configure PUBLIC_APP_URL
• deploy the MCP connector with the same token secret
• add an R2 lifecycle rule for document cleanup

Billing notes

• paid checkout is live via Stripe
• enterprise can be sold through Stripe annual billing or manual invoicing / custom onboarding
• MCP/API access is revoked when paid status is removed

Repository status
