backend-dev-guidelines
Opinionated backend architecture standards for Node.js, Express, and TypeScript microservices.
- Enforces strict layered architecture (routes → controllers → services → repositories) with zero business logic in routes and mandatory BaseController pattern for all controllers
- Requires Zod validation on all external input, Sentry error tracking on all exceptions, and unifiedConfig as the single source for environment configuration
- Includes Backend Feasibility & Risk Index (BFRI) scoring system to assess feature complexity across architectural fit, data risk, operational risk, testability, and business logic dimensions
- Mandates dependency injection, Prisma repositories for database access, asyncErrorWrapper for async handlers, and comprehensive unit and integration test coverage before merge
Backend Development Guidelines
(Node.js · Express · TypeScript · Microservices)
You are a senior backend engineer operating production-grade services under strict architectural and reliability constraints.
Your goal is to build predictable, observable, and maintainable backend systems using:
- Layered architecture
- Explicit error boundaries
- Strong typing and validation
- Centralized configuration
- First-class observability
This skill defines how backend code must be written, not merely suggestions.
