Make me an API

Build a user authentication REST API using Node.js Express.

Requirements:
1. POST /auth/register - Sign up with email and password
2. POST /auth/login - Issue JWT token
3. GET /auth/me - Current user info (auth required)

Tech stack:
- Express 4.x, TypeScript
- bcrypt for password hashing
- jsonwebtoken for JWT management
- Zod for input validation

Output format: Show code in separate code blocks for each file.

Analyze the time complexity of the following Python function:

def find_duplicates(arr):
    seen = set()
    duplicates = []
    for item in arr:
        if item in seen:
            duplicates.append(item)
        else:
            seen.add(item)
    return duplicates

Write commit messages following these examples:

Example 1:
Change: Added social login buttons to login page
Commit: feat(auth): add social login buttons to login page

Example 2:
Change: Improved user list API response speed
Commit: perf(api): optimize user list query with pagination

Example 3:

<context>
This project is a Next.js 14 App Router-based e-commerce platform.
Database is PostgreSQL, ORM is Prisma.
</context>

<task>
Implement a product search API.
It must support full-text search.
</task>

# Bad (unnecessarily long prompt)
Hello! I'm working on a Python project right now,
and I was wondering if you might have time to look at the code below?
I would really appreciate it. The code is as follows...

# Good (concise prompt)
Optimize the following Python code. Target time complexity is O(n).

Analyze the bottlenecks in the following microservice architecture.
Let's think step by step.

Architecture:
- API Gateway -> User Service -> PostgreSQL
- API Gateway -> Order Service -> MongoDB
- Order Service -> Payment Service (HTTP)
- Payment Service -> External Payment API
- Order Service -> Notification Service (Kafka)

For each step:
1. List potential bottleneck factors for that service
2. Analyze what happens at 10,000 requests per second
3. Propose improvements

Analyze why this SQL query is slow and optimize it.
Let's think step by step.

SELECT u.name, COUNT(o.id) as order_count, SUM(o.total) as total_spent
FROM users u
LEFT JOIN orders o ON u.id = o.user_id
WHERE o.created_at >= '2025-01-01'
GROUP BY u.name
HAVING total_spent > 1000
ORDER BY total_spent DESC;

Design a caching strategy for the following system.

System: News feed service with 10 million daily views

Explore 3 different approaches:

Approach A: Redis-based centralized cache
- Analyze pros and cons
- Provide expected performance numbers

Approach B: CDN + edge caching
- Analyze pros and cons
- Provide expected performance numbers

Approach C: Hybrid (local cache + distributed cache + CDN)
- Analyze pros and cons
- Provide expected performance numbers

Finally, compare all approaches and select the most suitable strategy
for this system. Explain your choice from cost, performance, and
complexity perspectives.

Analyze the bugs in the following code from 3 different perspectives.

Code:
async function processOrders(orders) {
  const results = [];
  for (const order of orders) {
    const result = await processPayment(order);
    results.push(result);
  }
  return results;
}

Perspective 1 (Performance Engineer): Find performance issues
Perspective 2 (Security Engineer): Find security vulnerabilities
Perspective 3 (SRE Engineer): Find reliability issues

Synthesize findings from all perspectives to present a final improvement plan.

Follow this process to resolve the bug:

Problem: Intermittent 500 errors in production

Proceed in "Think -> Act -> Observe" format for each step:

Think 1: What information should I check first?
Act 1: Analyze the error logs
Observe 1: (Record the analysis results)

Think 2: What patterns are visible in the logs?
Act 2: (Decide next action)
Observe 2: (Record observations)

Repeat this process until you find the root cause.
At the end, present the fix code and prevention measures.

Perform the following task:

Step 1: Implement an authentication middleware meeting the requirements below
Step 2: Self-review your implementation - find security vulnerabilities, edge cases, performance issues
Step 3: Present the final version with all review issues fixed

Requirements:
- JWT-based authentication
- Token expiration handling
- Role-based access control
- Rate limiting integration

Decompose the following feature into subtasks and implement each one.

Feature: Real-time chat system (WebSocket-based)

Decomposition:
1. First divide the feature into independent modules
2. Define each module's interface (inputs/outputs)
3. Implement modules in order starting from those with no dependencies
4. Explain how to integrate the modules
5. Show the overall flow as a sequence diagram

Explain Kubernetes core concepts using a restaurant analogy.

For each concept:

Concepts to cover: Pod, Deployment, Service, Ingress, ConfigMap, Secret, PVC

I'm building an automated AI code review system.

Create the optimal system prompt that meets these requirements:

1. Purpose: Automated PR code review
2. Input: Code changes in Git diff format
3. Output: Structured review comments
4. Review areas: Security, performance, readability, test coverage
5. Tone: Constructive and educational
6. Language: English

The prompt should include:
- Role definition
- Detailed review criteria
- Output format template
- Exception handling rules
- 1 few-shot example

Generate code while strictly adhering to the following principles:

Principle 1 - Security: Never include OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities
Principle 2 - Accessibility: Meet WCAG 2.1 AA standards
Principle 3 - Performance: Meet Core Web Vitals standards
Principle 4 - Maintainability: Follow SOLID principles
Principle 5 - Testing: Write at least 2 test cases for each function

After each code block, show a checklist of which principles are met.

Here is the existing service pattern in the project:

<existing_pattern>
// services/user.service.ts
export class UserService {
  constructor(
    private readonly userRepo: UserRepository,
    private readonly logger: Logger,
  ) {}

  async findById(id: string): Promise<Result<User, ServiceError>> {
    try {
      const user = await this.userRepo.findById(id);
      if (!user) {
        return err(new NotFoundError('User', id));
      }
      return ok(user);
    } catch (error) {
      this.logger.error('Failed to find user', { id, error });
      return err(new InternalError('Failed to find user'));
    }
  }
}
</existing_pattern>

Write a ProductService in the same style as this pattern.
Required methods: findById, findAll (with pagination), create, update, delete

As my debugging partner, help me solve the following problem.

Symptom: User automatically logged out 3 minutes after login

What I know:
- JWT token expiration is set to 1 hour
- Cannot reproduce in local environment
- Only occurs in production
- Started after March 14th deployment

What I've tried:
- Checked token expiration time -> normal
- Checked browser cookies -> token disappears

Guide me with questions:
1. What possible causes haven't I checked yet?
2. What specific steps would verify each cause?
3. What do you reason is the most likely cause?

Review the following code according to this checklist.

Review checklist:
1. Correctness: Does it work as intended?
2. Security: Are there SQL injection, XSS, CSRF vulnerabilities?
3. Performance: Are there unnecessary computations, N+1 queries, memory leaks?
4. Error handling: Are all failure paths properly handled?
5. Readability: Do variable and function names convey meaning well?
6. Testability: Is the structure easy to test?
7. Extensibility: Is it flexible to requirement changes?

Output format:
Mark each item as Pass/Fail/Warning.
For Fail or Warning, provide specific improved code.

Severity: Critical > Major > Minor > Suggestion

Write comprehensive tests for the following function.

Function:
```typescript
export function calculateDiscount(
  originalPrice: number,
  membershipTier: 'basic' | 'silver' | 'gold' | 'platinum',
  couponCode?: string,
): { finalPrice: number; discountRate: number; appliedDiscounts: string[] } {
  // ... implementation
}

### Technique 25: Refactoring with Specific Goals

Provide specific refactoring goals.

```text
Refactor the following code.

Refactoring goals:
1. Function separation: One function = one responsibility
2. Remove magic numbers: Replace with meaningful constants
3. Apply early return pattern: Eliminate nested if statements
4. Strengthen type safety: Use union types and type guards

Refactoring process:
- Show before and after side by side
- Explain the reason for each change
- Confirm that behavior has not changed
