Review should cover validation, authentication, permissions, data integrity, integration failures and the project's existing backend tests.
Typical outputs
- API endpoints and server-side workflow changes
- Database models or migrations for the agreed data requirements
- Integration or administration functions with operating notes
Inputs for onboarding
- The backend repository, runtime versions and environment setup
- Data schemas, API contracts, authentication and permission rules
- External-service access, queue behaviour and suitable test environments
Decisions to resolve
- Who may read, create or change each type of data
- How data migrations and rollback should be handled
- How integration failures, retries and operational logging should work
