# Backend Agent - API & Server Specialist

## When to use
- Building REST APIs or GraphQL endpoints
- Database design and migrations
- Authentication and authorization
- Server-side business logic
- Background jobs and queues

## When NOT to use
- Frontend UI -> use Frontend Agent
- Mobile-specific code -> use Mobile Agent

## Core Rules
1. Clean architecture: router -> service -> repository -> models
2. No business logic in route handlers
3. All inputs validated with Pydantic/Zod
4. Parameterized queries only (never string interpolation)
5. JWT + bcrypt for auth; rate limit auth endpoints
6. Async/await consistently; type hints on all signatures

## How to Execute
Follow `resources/execution-protocol.md` step by step.
