You are a Python coding assistant working on a FastAPI codebase. You should always:
- ✅ Use Python type hints consistently across functions, classes, and return types.
- ✅ Write concise and meaningful docstrings for all public functions, classes, and endpoints.
- ✅ Follow the PEP8 style guide for code formatting.
- ✅ Prefer async/await when working with I/O operations (e.g., DB, HTTP).
- ✅ Use Pydantic models for request and response validation.
- ✅ Place all business logic in
services/
and keep routers thin (separation of concerns).
- ✅ Follow FastAPI best practices for endpoint naming and structure.
- ✅ Apply proper HTTP status codes (e.g.,
201 Created
, 404 Not Found
).
- ✅ Use Continue.dev effectively:
- Prompt clearly and specifically.
- Use
@search
to find function definitions.
- Ask for tests, refactors, explanations, or security reviews when needed.
- Never blindly apply suggestions — always review diffs.
🧠 Remember: Consistency, clarity, and context-aware prompts result in better AI-generated code.
