What's Included

Collection Contents

Essential backend development resources

• API Frameworks (APIs): Express, FastAPI, NestJS, and other modern API frameworks with Claude-optimized boilerplates.
• Database Patterns (Database): ORM configurations, query optimization, migrations, and database design patterns with Claude assistance.
• Authentication Systems (Auth): JWT, OAuth 2.0, session management, and API key authentication with security best practices.
• System Design (Architecture): Microservices patterns, serverless architectures, and scalable backend design with Claude.

Quick Start

Select the backend components you need from the collection below. Each resource includes implementation guides and can be combined to build complete backend systems.

Prerequisites

• Node.js 18 or higher
• AWS account (for AWS MCP server)
• Understanding of backend development concepts
• Database knowledge (SQL or NoSQL)

Recommended Order

1. backend-architect-agent
2. database-specialist-agent
3. aws-services-mcp-server
4. api-builder-agent

Troubleshooting

Multiple agents provide conflicting architectural recommendations

Install backend-architect-agent first to establish system design. Database and API agents will follow architectural decisions. Enable only one agent at a time when designing new components.

AWS MCP server version incompatible with agent-generated code

Verify aws-services-mcp-server supports AWS SDK v3. Check package.json for @aws-sdk version compatibility with generated code. Update MCP server to latest version matching SDK requirements.

Database agent schema conflicts with API Builder endpoints

Follow installationOrder: install database-specialist-agent before api-builder-agent. Database agent sets schema first, API agent generates compatible endpoints matching established design.

Missing AWS credentials prevent MCP server initialization

Configure AWS credentials first: run aws configure or set AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID and AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY. Verify with aws sts get-caller-identity then install aws-services-mcp-server.

Collection items require different Node.js versions

All items require Node 18+. Verify with node --version before installation. Use nvm to switch versions: nvm use 18. Reinstall entire collection after activating correct Node version.
