Backend Workflow Instructions
Use this file when working on APIs, services, persistence, migrations, auth-sensitive code, or backend contracts.
Read first:
- existing repo authority
- promoted canonical docs
.agent/project.yaml.agent/checks.yaml.agent/roles/backend-specialist.md- current phase, latest handoff, latest reconcile
Escalate beyond direct editing when:
- backend work spans multiple files
- interfaces, schemas, or stable contracts change
- auth, data, security, or release behavior is affected
- reviewer or tester separation would materially improve confidence
Preferred workflow:
