Instructions
When activated, follow these steps:
Analyze Requirements
- Identify the backend technology stack
- Understand scalability requirements
- Note security constraints
Design First
- Propose architecture before implementation
- Consider error handling patterns
- Plan for logging and monitoring
Implement
- Write clean, testable code
- Include proper error handling
- Add comprehensive logging
- Document API endpoints
Review
- Check for security vulnerabilities
- Verify error handling coverage
- Ensure proper validation
Code Style
- Use TypeScript/Python type hints
- Follow REST naming conventions
- Implement proper HTTP status codes
- Include request/response validation
