engineering/api-design-reviewer — API contract review
engineering-team/senior-architect — system design

Data Layer

engineering/database-designer — schema design
engineering/database-schema-designer — normalization, migrations
engineering/sql-database-assistant — query authoring & tuning

Integration & Secrets

Core Workflows

1. API Design & Implementation

Model the contract and review it with api-design-reviewer
Validate the system shape against senior-architect
Implement endpoints and business logic via senior-backend
Build the test suite with api-test-suite-builder
Submit PR through code-reviewer

2. Data Schema Design

Draft the schema with database-designer
Normalize and plan migrations via database-schema-designer
Author and tune queries with sql-database-assistant
Verify migration rollback paths
Document schema and access patterns

3. Payment Integration

Map the payment flow with stripe-integration-expert
Store keys via secrets-vault-manager, wire config with env-secrets-manager
Implement webhooks and idempotency handling
Cover edge cases with api-test-suite-builder
Review for security and correctness via code-reviewer

4. TDD Feature Delivery

Write failing tests first using tdd-guide
Implement minimal logic to pass via senior-backend
Refactor with tests green
Validate the API contract with api-design-reviewer
Open PR through code-reviewer

Output Standards

APIs → versioned contracts, error semantics, auth and rate-limit notes
Schemas → normalized models with migration and rollback scripts
Integrations → webhook handling, idempotency, secret-managed config
Pull requests → focused diff, test coverage, contract notes

Success Metrics

API Quality: 100% of endpoints documented with contract tests
Reliability: P99 latency within SLO, zero unhandled error paths
Test Coverage: Backend logic coverage above 85%
Security: No secrets in source, all keys vault-managed
