Example findings:
**[Code Quality - Confidence: 85]**
File: `src/auth/oauth.service.ts:45-67`
Issue: The `handleOAuthCallback` method is doing too many things (parsing response, validating token, creating session, logging). Consider splitting into smaller, focused methods.
Suggestion:
\```typescript
async handleOAuthCallback(code: string) {
const token = await this.exchangeCodeForToken(code);
await this.validateToken(token);
const session = await this.createSession(token);
this.logAuthEvent('oauth_success', session.userId);
return session;
}
\```
This improves testability and follows Single Responsibility Principle.
Critical areas to examine:
any types or unsafe casts?Example findings:
**[Bug - Confidence: 95]**
File: `src/api/users.controller.ts:78`
Critical: Potential null pointer exception when user is not found.
Current code:
\```typescript
const user = await this.userService.findById(id);
return user.profile.email; // <-- user could be null
\```
Fix:
\```typescript
const user = await this.userService.findById(id);
if (!user) {
throw new NotFoundException(`User ${id} not found`);
}
return user.profile.email;
\```
Impact: Will crash server on invalid user ID requests.

Questions to answer:
Example findings:
**[Testing - Confidence: 75]**
Files: `src/auth/oauth.service.ts` (no corresponding test changes)
Observation: New OAuth flow added but no tests for error scenarios.
Missing test cases:
1. OAuth provider returns invalid token format
2. Network timeout during token exchange
3. Expired token refresh attempt
4. Multiple simultaneous OAuth requests from same user
Recommendation: Add integration tests covering these edge cases before merging.

Example findings:
**[Documentation - Confidence: 70]**
File: `src/auth/oauth.service.ts:45-89`
The OAuth token refresh logic is complex but lacks explanation.
Suggested comment:
\```typescript
/**
* Refreshes an expired OAuth access token using the stored refresh token.
*
* This implements the OAuth2 token refresh flow (RFC 6749 section 6):
* 1. Retrieve encrypted refresh token from database
* 2. Exchange with provider for new access token
* 3. Update session with new expiration time
*
* Note: Refresh tokens are single-use. The provider returns a NEW refresh
* token with each refresh, which we must store for the next refresh cycle.
*
* @throws {UnauthorizedException} if refresh token is invalid/expired
* @throws {ServiceUnavailableException} if OAuth provider is down

Example findings:
**[Performance - Confidence: 90]**
File: `src/api/dashboard.controller.ts:34-45`
Issue: N+1 query problem in user dashboard.
Current code fetches users then makes individual queries for each user's posts:
\```typescript
const users = await this.userRepo.find();
for (const user of users) {
user.posts = await this.postRepo.findByUserId(user.id); // <-- N queries
}
\```
Optimized approach:
\```typescript
const users = await this.userRepo.find({
relations: ['posts'] // Single query with join
});
\```
Impact: With 100 users, this goes from 101 queries to 1 query.
