Behavioral confidence for Fastify services.

APOPHIS lets you write behavioral contracts next to route schemas and check behavior across operations, states, and protocol flows.

Behavior Example

One route contract. One create/read consistency bug.

Route:

app.post('/users', {
  schema: {
    'x-category': 'constructor',
    'x-ensures': [
      'response_code(GET /users/{response_body(this).id}) == 200'
    ]
  }
}, async (request, reply) => {
  const { name } = request.body;
  const id = `usr-${Date.now()}`;
  reply.status(201);
  return { id, name };
});

APOPHIS output:

Contract violation
POST /users
Profile: quick
Seed: 42

Expected
  response_code(GET /users/{response_body(this).id}) == 200

Observed
  GET /users/usr-123 returned 404

Why this matters
  The resource created by POST /users is not retrievable.

Replay
  apophis replay --artifact reports/apophis/failure-2026-04-28T12-30-22Z.json

Next
  Check the create/read consistency for POST /users and GET /users/{id}.

JSON Schema cannot express this relationship. APOPHIS turns it into an executable check.

Why It Matters

• JSON Schema checks shape: Does the response have the right fields?
• APOPHIS checks behavior: Does creating a user make it retrievable? Does updating change persist? Does deleting make it inaccessible?

Production outages often come from behavior drift as well as invalid payload shapes. APOPHIS checks behavior at the route-contract layer.

Three Modes

Mode	Purpose	Default Environments
verify	Deterministic CI and local contract verification	local, test, CI
observe	Runtime visibility and drift detection without blocking	staging, prod
qualify	Run scenario, stateful, and chaos checks for critical flows	local, test, staging

Quickstart

Three commands to the first targeted behavior check:

npm install apophis-fastify fastify @fastify/swagger
apophis init --preset safe-ci
apophis verify --profile quick --routes "POST /users"

See docs/getting-started.md for the full walkthrough.

Trust and Safety

• Deterministic replay: Every failure includes a seed and a one-command replay.
• CI-safe default path: verify is deterministic and safe for CI pipelines.
• Production-safe observe path: observe is non-blocking by default.
• Qualify path gated away from prod: qualify is blocked in production by default.
• Explicit environment boundaries: Config rejects unknown keys and unsafe environment mixes.

LLM-Coded Services

APOPHIS gives coding agents a constrained, repeatable way to encode and verify behavior:

• Official scaffolds (safe-ci, llm-safe, platform-observe, protocol-lab)
• apophis doctor checks for missing dependencies, malformed config, and unsafe modes
• CI policy guards catch unknown keys, unsafe environments, and missing seeds
• Generated code follows the same pattern in every repo

See docs/llm-safe-adoption.md for templates and CI policy.

Advanced Cases

• Protocol flows — OAuth, multi-step negotiations
• Stateful lifecycle testing — Constructor/mutator/observer/destructor sequences
• Outbound dependency contracts — WIMSE, SPIFFE, JWT
• Chaos and adversity qualification — Controlled fault injection

Operator Resources

• Troubleshooting matrix — Categorized failure classes with resolution steps
• Adoption certification scorecard — Review template for team rollout

CTAs
