 ### Shared Package (packages/shared)
 
+The shared package is compiled to `dist/` (CommonJS). All imports must use `@calchat/shared` (NOT `@calchat/shared/src/...`). Server `dev` and `build` scripts automatically build shared first.

+Multi-stage build: compiles shared + server in build stage, copies only `dist/` and production dependencies to runtime stage. `.dockerignore` excludes `node_modules`, `dist`, `apps/client`, `.git`, `.env`, `*.md`.

 ### Environment Variables
 Server requires `.env` file in `apps/server/`:
