🔧 Fixes Applied (Your Work on Personal Laptop)

(a) Dependency Injection Implementation

File: app/core/dependencies.py - Created centralized service registry - Initialized all singleton service instances - Proper dependency wiring (OpenAI client → services → pipelines) - Enables FastAPI Depends() pattern in routers

Impact: Makes all Sonnet services actually usable in production

(b) Documentation Organization

Changes: - Moved root docs into docs/ structure - START_HERE.mddocs/00_overview/start_here.md - QUICK_START.mddocs/20_runbooks/quick_start.md - PLAN.mddocs/30_design/plan.md - IMPLEMENTATION_COMPLETE.mddocs/90_ops/implementation_complete.md - ARTIFACTS/*docs/Artifacts/* - postman/QUICK_REFERENCE.mddocs/Postman/QUICK_REFERENCE.md - MkDocs navigation enabled

Impact: Professional, searchable documentation structure

(c) Endpoint Fixes (Python Files)

Files Modified: - app/api/routers/wallet.py: Implemented actual wallet endpoints using WalletReservationService - app/api/routers/admin.py: Fixed admin endpoints to use dependencies - app/core/auth.py: Fixed to work with service client pattern - app/services/wallet_reservation.py: Fixed return value structure - app/services/quiz_generator.py: Fixed imports - app/services/deduplication.py: Fixed type hints - app/services/text_normalizer.py: Fixed type hints

Impact: Endpoints 1, 4, 8 now working correctly

Pending Integration (Services Ready, Endpoints Need Wiring)

  1. Chat with RAG: RetrievalPipeline ready, chat router needs integration
  2. Quiz Generation: QuizGeneratorService ready, quiz router needs integration
  3. PDF Ingestion: IngestionService ready, ingestion router needs creation
  4. Scraper Sync: ScraperService ready, scraper router needs integration
  5. File Upload: UploadService ready, upload router needs creation

📝 Architectural Improvements Implemented

1. Dependency Injection Pattern

Before (Sonnet implementation):

# Services defined but not wired
class WalletReservationService:
    def __init__(self, supabase: Client):
        self.supabase = supabase

After (Your fix):

# app/core/dependencies.py
wallet_service = WalletReservationService(supabase=supabase_service)

# app/api/routers/wallet.py
from app.core/dependencies import wallet_service

@router.get("/balance")
async def get_balance(user: dict = Depends(get_current_user)):
    return wallet_service.get_balance(user["id"])

Impact: Singleton pattern, proper dependency injection, services actually callable

2. Service Initialization Order

Dependency Graph (from dependencies.py):

OpenAI Client ────┬──→ EmbeddingService ──→ RetrievalPipeline
                  ├──→ GPTMiniService ─────→ RetrievalPipeline
                  └──→ QuizGeneratorService

Supabase Client ──┬──→ WalletReservationService
                  ├──→ IngestionService
                  ├──→ ScraperService
                  └──→ EmbeddingService

Pinecone Client ──→ PineconeAdapter ──→ EmbeddingService ──→ RetrievalPipeline

CacheService ─────────────────────────────→ RetrievalPipeline

3. Router Integration Pattern

Working Example (wallet.py):

# Import singleton from dependencies
from app.core.dependencies import wallet_service

# Use in endpoint with dependency injection
@router.get("/balance")
async def get_balance(user: dict = Depends(get_current_user)):
    balance_data = wallet_service.get_balance(UUID(user["id"]))
    return WalletBalanceResponse(**balance_data)

Still TODO (chat.py, quiz.py, etc.): - Need to import and use singletons from dependencies - Need to wire services into endpoint functions - Need to replace stub responses with actual service calls

🎓 Lessons Learned

What Worked Well

  • ✅ Service design: All services well-structured and testable
  • ✅ Migrations: Proper schema design with correct naming convention
  • ✅ Models: Pydantic models match database schema
  • ✅ Middleware: Request-ID and rate limiting working
  • ✅ Dependency injection: Clean singleton pattern

What Needed Fixes

  • ⚠️ Initial stub routers didn't work: Needed actual implementation (your fixes)
  • ⚠️ Missing dependency injection: Services weren't wired to routers (your fix)
  • ⚠️ Service initialization: Needed singleton pattern (your dependencies.py)
  • ⚠️ Type hints: Some services had missing imports (your fixes)

Remaining Work

  • ⏳ Wire remaining routers to use dependency singletons
