Seed Scripts

Seeds populate the system-level data that drives the platform. All seeds are idempotent — safe to re-run.

Running Seeds

cd API-honeyhimself

# Run all seeds (in dependency order)
npm run seed:all

# Or individually:
npm run seed:plans
npm run seed:stage-types
npm run seed:screening-questions
npm run seed:dev-org

Scripts use npx tsx (not ts-node). seed:all delegates to a master script (seedAll.ts) that runs in dependency order:

{
  "scripts": {
    "seed:plans": "npx tsx src/scripts/seedPlans.ts",
    "seed:stage-types": "npx tsx src/scripts/seedStageTypes.ts",
    "seed:screening-questions": "npx tsx src/scripts/seedScreeningQuestions.ts",
    "seed:dev-org": "npx tsx src/scripts/seedDevOrg.ts",
    "seed:all": "npx tsx src/scripts/seedAll.ts",
    "seed:interview-questions": "npx tsx src/scripts/seedInterviewQuestions.ts"
  }
}

Note: seed:interview-questions is defined but NOT included in seed:all — deferred to Phase 1B. seed:dsa-problems and seed:scenario-questions are similarly deferred to their respective phases.

seedPlans.ts

Inserts 4 Plan documents. Uses upsert on key to remain idempotent.

Plan	maxActiveJobs	maxCandidates	maxInterviews/mo	Premium
free	1	10	30	—
starter	5	50	200	—
pro	20	200	1 000	analytics, branding
enterprise	-1	-1	-1	all

(-1 = unlimited)

---

seedStageTypes.ts

Inserts 6 StageTypeConfig documents. These drive all frontend dropdowns and form rendering logic. Uses upsert on key.

See StageTypeConfig docs for full config for each stage type.

---

seedScreeningQuestions.ts

Inserts 22 ScreeningQuestion documents with source: 'system'. Questions grouped by category:

• Work Authorization
• Availability
• Salary Expectations
• Remote Work
• Notice Period
• Experience Level
• Technical Skills
• Communication

Uses content hash dedup (findOneAndUpdate with $setOnInsert).

---

seedDevOrg.ts

Dev-only one-time script. For each existing User that has no organizationId, creates an Organization doc and sets User.organizationId. Idempotent — skips if org already exists.

Requires seed:plans to have run first (org is created on the free plan).

---

seedInterviewQuestions.ts (Phase 1B — not in seed:all)

Inserts ~30 InterviewQuestion docs with source: 'system'. Categories:

• Behavioral (behavioral)
• Technical (technical)
• Culture Fit (culture_fit)
• Situational (situational)

Run manually when starting Phase 1B work. Will be added to seed:all in Phase 1B.

---

seedDsaProblems.ts (Phase 3 — not in seed:all)

Inserts 20+ DSAProblem docs with source: 'system'. Distribution:

• 8 easy
• 8 medium
• 4 hard

Topics: arrays, hash maps, trees, graphs, dynamic programming, binary search, sorting.

Each problem includes:

• Full problem statement
• 2–3 visible examples
• 5–10 test cases (mix of visible and hidden)
• Starter code in JS, Python, Java, C++
• Time + memory limits

---

seedScenarioQuestions.ts (Phase 4 — not in seed:all)

Inserts system ScenarioQuestion docs across:

• system_design
• api_design
• behavioral
• sales
• marketing
• product

Each includes evaluationRubric and followUpGuide for the AI interviewer.
