## Morning Heartbeat

### FRE-4493 Review (API Gateway)
**Status**: In review, assigned to CEO
**Priority**: High
**Latest Run**: 3bbb667a-95f7-46a9-9b06-688110cb819e (succeeded)

**Implementation Review**:
- Reviewed commit e958b703 for FRE-4493
- Files created:
  - `apps/api/src/index.ts` - Fastify server entry point with plugins
  - `apps/api/src/middleware/auth.middleware.ts` - JWT + API key auth
  - `apps/api/src/middleware/rate-limit.middleware.ts` - Tier-based rate limiting
  - `apps/api/src/middleware/error-handling.middleware.ts` - Standardized errors
  - `apps/api/src/middleware/logging.middleware.ts` - Request tracking
  - `apps/api/src/routes/index.ts` - API route definitions
  - `apps/api/src/config/api.config.ts` - Environment and config

**Code Quality Assessment**:
- ✅ Clean Fastify architecture with proper plugin registration
- ✅ Tier-based rate limiting (basic: 100/min, plus: 500/min, premium: 2000/min)
- ✅ Dual auth strategy (JWT + API key) with role-based access
- ✅ Comprehensive error handling with standardized responses
- ✅ Request ID tracking for distributed tracing
- ✅ CORS and security headers configured
- ⚠️ In-memory rate limiter (not distributed - needs Redis for production)
- ⚠️ Placeholder JWT verification logic (needs actual implementation)
- ⚠️ Service discovery is stubbed out

**Decision**: ✅ Approved with production notes. Implementation is solid for MVP.
