// GOOD: Explain WHY, not WHAT
// Use binary search because the list is always sorted and
// can contain millions of items - O(log n) vs O(n)
const index = binarySearch(items, target);
// GOOD: Explain complex business logic
// Users get 20% discount if they've been members for 2+ years
// AND have made 10+ purchases (per marketing team decision Q4 2024)
if (user.memberYears >= 2 && user.purchaseCount >= 10) {
applyDiscount(0.2);
}
// GOOD: Document workarounds
// HACK: Safari doesn't support this API, fallback to polling
// TODO: Remove when Safari adds support (tracking: webkit.org/b/12345)
if (!window.IntersectionObserver) {
startPolling();
}
// BAD: Stating the obvious
// Increment counter by 1
counter++;
// BAD: Explaining clear code
// Check if user is admin
if (user.role === 'admin') { ... }
// BAD: Outdated comments (worse than no comment)
// Returns the user's full name <-- Actually returns email now!

# ADR-001: Use PostgreSQL for Primary Database
## Status
Accepted
## Context
We need a database for storing user data and transactions.
Options considered: PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, DynamoDB.
## Decision
Use PostgreSQL with Supabase hosting.
## Rationale
- Strong ACID compliance needed for financial data
- Team has PostgreSQL experience
- Supabase provides auth and realtime features
- pgvector extension for future AI features
## Consequences
- Need to manage schema migrations
- May need read replicas for scale
- Team needs to learn Supabase-specific features
## Authentication Module
### Overview
Handles user authentication using JWT tokens with refresh rotation.
### Flow
1. User submits credentials to `/auth/login`
2. Server validates and returns access + refresh tokens
3. Access token used for API requests (15min expiry)
4. Refresh token used to get new access token (7d expiry)
### Dependencies
- `jsonwebtoken` - Token generation/validation
- `bcrypt` - Password hashing
- `redis` - Refresh token storage
### Configuration
- `JWT_SECRET` - Secret for signing tokens
- `ACCESS_TOKEN_EXPIRY` - Access token lifetime
- `REFRESH_TOKEN_EXPIRY` - Refresh token lifetime
Guide for creating high-quality MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers that enable LLMs to interact with external services through well-designed tools. Use when building MCP servers to integrate external APIs or services, whether in Python (FastMCP) or Node/TypeScript (MCP SDK).
Automatically creates user-facing changelogs from git commits by analyzing commit history, categorizing changes, and transforming technical commits into clear, customer-friendly release notes. Turns hours of manual changelog writing into minutes of automated generation.
Use when implementation is complete, all tests pass, and you need to decide how to integrate the work - guides completion of development work by presenting structured options for merge, PR, or cleanup
