Purpose

Common utilities and configuration used across all NexusAI services Keeping these here avoids duplicating and ensure consistent behavior

Exports

'getEnv(key, defaultValue?)'

Loads an environment variable by key. If no default is provided and the variable is missing, throws at startup rather than failing later on.

const { getEnv } = require('@nexusai/shared');
const PORT = getEnv('PORT', '3002');         // optional — falls back to 3002
const DB   = getEnv('SQLITE_PATH');          // required — throws if missing
