# Example: API Feature Implementation

## User Request

> "Create an implementation plan for the User Profile API spec"

## Workflow Execution

### Step 1: Fetch Specification

```
Notion:notion-search
query: "User Profile API spec"
query_type: "internal"
```

Found: "User Profile API Specification" in Engineering Specs

```
Notion:notion-fetch
id: "user-profile-api-spec-page-id"
```

### Step 2: Parse Specification

**Spec Content Extracted:**

```markdown
# User Profile API Specification

## Overview
RESTful API for user profile management

## Requirements

### Functional
- FR-1: Get user profile by ID
- FR-2: Update user profile (name, bio, avatar)
- FR-3: Upload profile avatar
- FR-4: Get user's public profile (limited fields)
- FR-5: Search users by name

### Non-Functional
- NFR-1: Response time < 200ms (p95)
- NFR-2: Support 1000 concurrent users
- NFR-3: Avatar upload < 5MB
- NFR-4: GDPR compliant (data portability)

## API Endpoints

GET /api/v1/users/:id
PUT /api/v1/users/:id
POST /api/v1/users/:id/avatar
GET /api/v1/users/:id/public
GET /api/v1/users/search

## Data Model
- id (UUID)
- email (string, unique)
- name (string)
- bio (text, max 500 chars)
- avatar_url (string)
- created_at (timestamp)
- updated_at (timestamp)

## Security
- Authentication: JWT bearer token
- Authorization: Users can only update own profile
- Rate limiting: 100 req/min per user

## Acceptance Criteria
- AC-1: All endpoints return proper HTTP status codes
- AC-2: Validation errors return 400 with error details
- AC-3: Unauthorized access returns 401
- AC-4: Rate limit exceeded returns 429
- AC-5: Avatar images stored in S3
```

### Step 3: Create Implementation Plan

```
Notion:notion-create-pages

parent: { page_id: "engineering-plans-parent-id" }

pages: [{
  properties: {
    "title": "Implementation Plan: User Profile API"
  },
  content: "[Implementation plan]"
}]
```

**Implementation Plan Created:**

```markdown
# Implementation Plan: User Profile API

## Overview
Build RESTful API for user profile management with CRUD operations, avatar upload, and search functionality.

## Linked Specification
<mention-page url="...">User Profile API Specification</mention-page>

## Requirements Summary

### Functional Requirements
- ✅ Get user profile (authenticated)
- ✅ Update profile fields (name, bio)
- ✅ Upload avatar with image processing
- ✅ Public profile view (limited fields)
- ✅ User search by name

### Non-Functional Requirements
- **Performance**: < 200ms response time (p95)
- **Scalability**: 1000 concurrent users
- **Storage**: Avatar files < 5MB to S3
- **Compliance**: GDPR data portability

### Acceptance Criteria
- All endpoints with proper status codes
- Input validation with error details
- JWT authentication required
- Rate limiting enforced
- Avatars stored in S3

## Technical Approach

### Architecture
- **Framework**: Express.js (Node.js)
- **Database**: PostgreSQL
- **Storage**: AWS S3 for avatars
- **Cache**: Redis for profile data
- **Search**: PostgreSQL full-text search

### Key Design Decisions
1. **JWT Authentication**: Stateless auth, scales horizontally
2. **S3 for Avatars**: Offload storage, CDN integration ready
3. **Redis Caching**: Reduce DB load for frequently accessed profiles
4. **Rate Limiting**: Token bucket algorithm, per-user limits

## Dependencies

### External Dependencies
- AWS S3 bucket created ✅
- Redis instance available ✅
- PostgreSQL database provisioned ✅

### Internal Dependencies
- JWT authentication service (exists)
- User database table (exists)
- Logging infrastructure (exists)

### Blockers
None currently

## Risks & Mitigation

### Risk 1: Image Processing Performance
- **Probability**: Medium
- **Impact**: Medium
- **Mitigation**: Use background job queue for processing, return signed upload URL immediately

### Risk 2: S3 Upload Failures
- **Probability**: Low
- **Impact**: Medium
- **Mitigation**: Implement retry logic with exponential backoff, fallback to local storage temporarily

### Risk 3: Rate Limiting Complexity
- **Probability**: Low
- **Impact**: Low
- **Mitigation**: Use proven library (express-rate-limit with Redis store)

### Risk 4: Search Performance
- **Probability**: Medium
- **Impact**: Medium
- **Mitigation**: Add database indexes, consider Elasticsearch if needed later
