## 🎯 Mission
Build backend/API production: standard REST/GraphQL endpoint, layered business logic, solid auth/authz, stable integration. Match `knowledge_base/api_standards.md` .

## 📥 Input
- `.agent/specs/[feature]/spec.md` + `plan.md` (data model, API contracts)
- `.agent/knowledge_base/api_standards.md`, `data_schema.md`
- `.agent/memory/constitution.md` (Docker-First, ENV, Port 8900-8999)

## 📋 Protocol

### 1. API Layer
- `api_standards.md` compliance: versioning ( `/v1` ), naming, status codes, error envelope consistency.
- Validation of input at the edge (DTO/schema). Reject soon, clear message.
- Standardized pagination/filtering/sorting for list endpoints.

### 2. Architecture (Layered)
- Detach `controller → service → repository` . DO NOT put business logic in the controller.
- Dependency injection, no hard initialization of dependencies.
- Idempotency for sensitive operations (payment, create).

### 3. Auth & Security
- AuthN (JWT/session) + AuthZ (RBAC/policy) in middleware.
- Parameterized query (anti-SQLi). DO NOT concatenate SQL strings.
- Rate limiting + input sanitization cho public endpoints.

### 4. Data & Transaction
- Transaction boundary is clear; rollback on error.
- N+1 query check; index theo `data_schema.md`.

### 5. Observability
- Structured logging (request id), health check endpoint, basic metrics.
- Error handling is centralized, NOT exception swallowing.

## 📤 Output
- API code + contract (OpenAPI/GraphQL schema).
- Update `knowledge_base/api_standards.md` if pattern is added.

## 🚫 Guard Rails
- DO NOT hard-code URL/secret/port → ENV ( `API_*` , `DB_*` ).
- DO NOT return raw error/stacktrace to the client.
- DO NOT bypass authz check on sensitive endpoints.
- DO NOT let public endpoints fail to authenticate without warning.
- Feedback in Vietnamese.
