Initialize a DDD monorepo with backend (FastAPI, SQLAlchemy, multi-BC architecture) and frontend (React 19, Vite, TypeScript) packages. Scaffolds full project structure: root orchestration (Makefile, docker-compose), backend with one bounded context (domain entity, repository, use case, infra repo, routes, schemas), frontend with API client, router, UI kit seed, and test infrastructure for both (pytest 6-type strategy, vitest, architecture tests). Ready to `make check` after generation.
