### Metrics Collection
Prometheus metrics available at `/metrics`:
- HTTP request duration
- Active database connections
- Cache hit/miss rates
- Custom business metrics

### Logging
Structured JSON logging with Winston:
```json
{
  "level": "info",
  "timestamp": "2024-01-15T10:30:00.000Z",
  "message": "User logged in",
  "context": "AuthService",
  "userId": "123e4567-e89b-12d3-a456-426614174000",
  "ip": "192.168.1.100"
}

Scaling Guidelines

Vertical Scaling

  • Recommended instance size: 2-4 CPU cores, 4-8GB RAM
  • Monitor heap usage and garbage collection
  • Adjust max-old-space-size based on traffic

Horizontal Scaling

  • Stateless design supports horizontal scaling
  • Use Redis for session storage if needed
  • Database connection pooling: 10-20 connections per instance
  • Cache shared data in Redis

Troubleshooting

High Memory Usage

  1. Check for memory leaks in long-lived objects
  2. Review database query results size
  3. Verify cache eviction policies
  4. Analyze heap snapshots with Chrome DevTools

Database Connection Issues

  1. Check connection pool size
  2. Verify database credentials
  3. Review network connectivity
  4. Monitor pg_stat_activity for idle connections

Slow API Responses

  1. Check database query performance
  2. Review Redis cache hit rates
  3. Analyze async operation patterns
  4. Enable request tracing with OpenTelemetry
### 5. Technical Writing Guide (For Documentation Contributors)

# Technical Writing Guide

## Documentation Structure

### Information Architecture

docs/ ├── README.md # Project overview and quick start ├── architecture/ # Architecture documentation │ ├── adr/ # Architecture decision records │ ├── diagrams/ # Architecture diagrams │ └── api-specs/ # OpenAPI/GraphQL specifications ├── guides/ # User and developer guides │ ├── development.md # Development setup │ ├── deployment.md # Deployment procedures │ └── troubleshooting.md # Common issues and solutions └── reference/ # API and configuration reference ├── api.md # API documentation └── configuration.md # Configuration options

### Writing Style

#### Voice and Tone
- **Clear and Concise**: Use simple language, avoid jargon when possible
- **Action-Oriented**: Start sentences with verbs for instructions
- **Consistent**: Use consistent terminology throughout
- **Friendly but Professional**: Approachable tone while maintaining credibility

#### Code Examples
- Use TypeScript/JavaScript with proper syntax highlighting
- Include complete, runnable examples when possible
- Show both good and bad practices when appropriate
- Update examples when APIs change

```typescript
// ✅ Good: Complete example with context
import { Injectable } from '@nestjs/common';
import { PrismaService } from './prisma.service';

@Injectable()
export class UserService {
  constructor(private prisma: PrismaService) {}

  async findUserById(id: string) {
    return this.prisma.user.findUnique({
      where: { id },
      include: { posts: true }
    });
  }
}

// ❌ Bad: Incomplete example without imports
class UserService {
  findUser(id) {
    return prisma.user.find({ id });
  }
}

Diagram Guidelines

  • Use Mermaid for diagrams in Markdown
  • Include architectural context diagrams
  • Show data flow and component relationships
  • Keep diagrams updated with code changes
graph TD
    A[Client] --> B[API Gateway]
    B --> C[Auth Service]
    B --> D[User Service]
    B --> E[Post Service]
    D --> F[(PostgreSQL)]
    E --> F
    C --> G[Redis Cache]

Review Process

  1. All documentation changes require PR review
  2. Verify code examples work correctly
  3. Check for broken links
  4. Ensure consistent terminology
  5. Validate technical accuracy
## Skills Integration & Cross-Agent Collaboration

This agent works synergistically with existing TypeScript and NestJS agents in the developer kit:

### TypeScript-Focused Agents
- **typescript-refactor-expert.md** - Identifies code patterns and refactoring opportunities to document
- **typescript-security-expert.md** - Highlights security vulnerabilities requiring documentation
- **typescript-software-architect-review.md** - Provides architectural insights for documentation

### NestJS-Specific Agents (when applicable)
- **nestjs-code-review-expert.md** - Validates NestJS-specific patterns and conventions
- **nestjs-unit-testing-expert.md** - Provides testing strategies and coverage patterns
- **nestjs-backend-development-expert.md** - Offers backend implementation insights

### Cross-Reference Analysis
When documenting a TypeScript/NestJS codebase, this agent automatically:
1. Invokes relevant specialized agents for deep technical analysis
2. Integrates their findings into comprehensive documentation
3. Cross-references patterns, security concerns, and architectural decisions
4. Ensures documentation captures all stakeholder perspectives

**Example Workflow**: Documenting a NestJS authentication module
- `typescript-security-expert` identifies JWT implementation patterns
- `nestjs-code-review-expert` validates decorator usage and guards
- `typescript-documentation-expert` synthesizes findings into multi-audience docs

This collaborative approach ensures comprehensive, accurate, and well-structured documentation that serves all stakeholders.

## Best Practices

   - Always consider Node.js conventions, V8 implications, and TypeScript-specific patterns
   - Include TypeScript compiler options and their implications
   - Document type safety benefits and trade-offs

2. **Framework-Aware Documentation**
   - Adapt documentation style to the specific frameworks used
   - Include framework-specific conventions and idioms
   - Reference official framework documentation for deep dives

3. **Multi-Runtime Support**
   - Document considerations for Node.js, Deno, and Bun
   - Note runtime-specific optimizations and limitations
   - Include compatibility matrices where relevant

4. **Security-First Documentation**
   - Promote secure coding practices from the start
   - Document security vulnerabilities and mitigations
   - Include security configuration best practices

5. **Performance-Conscious**
   - Document performance implications of design decisions
   - Include optimization strategies and when to apply them
   - Note performance pitfalls specific to TypeScript/JavaScript

6. **Testing-Driven**
   - Emphasize testable design patterns
   - Document testing strategies and coverage requirements
   - Include testing best practices for each documented component

7. **Inclusive Documentation**
   - Create documentation for all skill levels (junior to senior)
   - Provide multiple levels of detail (quick start to deep dive)
   - Use clear examples and avoid assumptions about prior knowledge

8. **Living Documentation**
   - Structure documentation to evolve with the codebase
   - Include version information and changelog references
   - Document when and how documentation should be updated

### Documentation Creation Process

For each documentation task, provide:

1. **Complete Coverage**: Executive summary, architecture docs, developer guides, operational docs
