Stream API Pattern (Functional Processing)\n```java\n// Pattern: Find longest substring without repeating characters\nimport java.util.*;\nimport java.util.stream.*;\n\npublic class StreamPatterns {\n    /**\n     * Find length of longest substring without repeating characters.\n     * Uses Stream API for functional approach.\n     * Time: O(n), Space: O(min(n, alphabet_size))\n     *\n     * Example: \"abcabcbb\" -> 3 (substring \"abc\")\n     */\n    public static int lengthOfLongestSubstring(String s) {\n        if (s == null || s.isEmpty()) {\n            return 0;\n        }\n\n        // Sliding window with HashMap tracking character positions\n        Map<Character, Integer> charIndex = new HashMap<>();\n        int maxLength = 0;\n        int left = 0;\n\n        for (int right = 0; right < s.length(); right++) {\n            char c = s.charAt(right);\n\n            // If character seen AND it's within current window\n            if (charIndex.containsKey(c) && charIndex.get(c) >= left) {\n                // Move left pointer past previous occurrence\n                left = charIndex.get(c) + 1;\n            }\n\n            charIndex.put(c, right);\n            maxLength = Math.max(maxLength, right - left + 1);\n        }\n\n        return maxLength;\n    }\n\n    /**\n     * Stream API example: Group and count elements\n     * Time: O(n), Space: O(k) where k is unique elements\n     */\n    public static Map<String, Long> countFrequencies(List<String> items) {\n        return items.stream()\n            .collect(Collectors.groupingBy(\n                item -> item,\n                Collectors.counting()\n            ));\n    }\n\n    // Stream API Key Principles:\n    // 1. Functional pipeline: source -> intermediate ops -> terminal op\n    // 2. Lazy evaluation: operations not executed until terminal op\n    // 3. Collectors: groupingBy, partitioningBy, toMap, summarizingInt\n    // 4. Parallel streams: Use .parallel() for CPU-bound operations on large datasets\n    // 5. Avoid side effects: Don't modify external state in stream operations\n}\n```\n\n### 2. Binary Search Pattern\n```java\n// Pattern: Binary search on sorted array\npublic class BinarySearchPatterns {\n    /**\n     * Find median of two sorted arrays in O(log(min(m,n))) time.\n     *\n     * Strategy: Binary search on smaller array to find partition point\n     */\n    public static double findMedianSortedArrays(int[] nums1, int[] nums2) {\n        // Ensure nums1 is smaller for optimization\n        if (nums1.length > nums2.length) {\n            return findMedianSortedArrays(nums2, nums1);\n        }\n\n        int m = nums1.length;\n        int n = nums2.length;\n        int left = 0;\n        int right = m;\n\n        while (left <= right) {\n            int partition1 = (left + right) / 2;\n            int partition2 = (m + n + 1) / 2 - partition1;\n\n            // Handle edge cases with infinity\n            int maxLeft1 = (partition1 == 0) ? Integer.MIN_VALUE : nums1[partition1 - 1];\n            int minRight1 = (partition1 == m) ? Integer.MAX_VALUE : nums1[partition1];\n\n            int maxLeft2 = (partition2 == 0) ? Integer.MIN_VALUE : nums2[partition2 - 1];\n            int minRight2 = (partition2 == n) ? Integer.MAX_VALUE : nums2[partition2];\n\n            // Check if partition is valid\n            if (maxLeft1 <= minRight2 && maxLeft2 <= minRight1) {\n                // Found correct partition\n                if ((m + n) % 2 == 0) {\n                    return (Math.max(maxLeft1, maxLeft2) + Math.min(minRight1, minRight2)) / 2.0;\n                }\n                return Math.max(maxLeft1, maxLeft2);\n            } else if (maxLeft1 > minRight2) {\n                right = partition1 - 1;\n            } else {\n                left = partition1 + 1;\n            }\n        }\n\n        throw new IllegalArgumentException(\"Input arrays must be sorted\");\n    }\n\n    // Binary Search Key Principles:\n    // 1. Sorted data: Binary search requires sorted input\n    // 2. Divide and conquer: Eliminate half of search space each iteration\n    // 3. Time complexity: O(log n) vs O(n) linear search\n    // 4. Edge cases: Empty arrays, single elements, duplicates\n    // 5. Integer overflow: Use left + (right - left) / 2 instead of (left + right) / 2\n}\n```\n\n### 3. HashMap Pattern (O(1) Lookup)\n```java\n// Pattern: Two sum problem with HashMap\nimport java.util.*;\n\npublic class HashMapPatterns {\n    /**\n     * Find indices of two numbers that sum to target.\n     * Time: O(n), Space: O(n)\n     */\n    public static int[] twoSum(int[] nums, int target) {\n        Map<Integer, Integer> seen = new HashMap<>();\n\n        for (int i = 0; i < nums.length; i++) {\n            int complement = target - nums[i];\n            if (seen.containsKey(complement)) {\n                return new int[] { seen.get(complement), i };\n            }\n            seen.put(nums[i], i);\n        }\n\n        return new int[] {}; // No solution found\n    }\n\n    // HashMap Key Principles:\n    // 1. O(1) lookup: Convert O(n²) nested loops to O(n) single pass\n    // 2. Trade space for time: Use memory to store seen values\n    // 3. Hash function: Good distribution prevents collisions\n    // 4. Load factor: Default 0.75 balances time vs space\n    // 5. ConcurrentHashMap: Use for thread-safe operations\n}\n```\n\n### 4. Graph Algorithms (JGraphT)\n```java\n// Pattern: Shortest path using JGraphT\nimport org.jgrapht.*;\nimport org.jgrapht.alg.shortestpath.*;\nimport org.jgrapht.graph.*;\nimport java.util.*;\n\npublic class GraphPatterns {\n    /**\n     * Find shortest path in weighted graph using Dijkstra.\n     * Time: O((V + E) log V) with binary heap\n     */\n    public static List<String> findShortestPath(\n            Graph<String, DefaultWeightedEdge> graph,\n            String source,\n            String target\n    ) {\n        DijkstraShortestPath<String, DefaultWeightedEdge> dijkstra =\n            new DijkstraShortestPath<>(graph);\n\n        GraphPath<String, DefaultWeightedEdge> path = dijkstra.getPath(source, target);\n\n        return path != null ? path.getVertexList() : Collections.emptyList();\n    }\n\n    /**\n     * Create directed weighted graph\n     */\n    public static Graph<String, DefaultWeightedEdge> createGraph() {\n        Graph<String, DefaultWeightedEdge> graph =\n            new DefaultDirectedWeightedGraph<>(DefaultWeightedEdge.class);\n\n        // Add vertices\n        graph.addVertex(\"A\");\n        graph.addVertex(\"B\");\n        graph.addVertex(\"C\");\n\n        // Add weighted edges\n        DefaultWeightedEdge edge = graph.addEdge(\"A\", \"B\");\n        graph.setEdgeWeight(edge, 5.0);\n\n        return graph;\n    }\n\n    // Graph Algorithm Key Principles:\n    // 1. JGraphT library: Production-ready graph algorithms\n    // 2. Dijkstra: Shortest path in weighted graphs (non-negative weights)\n    // 3. BFS: Shortest path in unweighted graphs\n    // 4. DFS: Cycle detection, topological sort\n    // 5. Time complexity: Consider |V| + |E| for graph operations\n}\n```\n\n### 5. Concurrent Collections Pattern\n```java\n// Pattern: Thread-safe collections for concurrent access\nimport java.util.concurrent.*;\nimport java.util.*;\n\npublic class ConcurrentPatterns {\n    /**\n     * Thread-safe queue for producer-consumer pattern.\n     * BlockingQueue handles synchronization automatically.\n     */\n    public static class ProducerConsumer {\n        private final BlockingQueue<String> queue = new LinkedBlockingQueue<>(100);\n\n        public void produce(String item) throws InterruptedException {\n            queue.put(item); // Blocks if queue is full\n        }\n\n        public String consume() throws InterruptedException {\n            return queue.take(); // Blocks if queue is empty\n        }\n    }\n\n    /**\n     * Thread-safe map with atomic operations.\n     * ConcurrentHashMap provides better concurrency than synchronized HashMap.\n     */\n    public static class ConcurrentCache {\n        private final ConcurrentHashMap<String, String> cache = new ConcurrentHashMap<>();\n\n        public String getOrCompute(String key) {\n            return cache.computeIfAbsent(key, k -> expensiveComputation(k));\n        }\n\n        private String expensiveComputation(String key) {\n            // Simulated expensive operation\n            return \"computed_\" + key;\n        }\n    }\n\n    // Concurrent Collections Key Principles:\n    // 1. ConcurrentHashMap: Lock striping for better concurrency than synchronized\n    // 2. BlockingQueue: Producer-consumer with automatic blocking\n    // 3. CopyOnWriteArrayList: For read-heavy, write-rare scenarios\n    // 4. Atomic operations: computeIfAbsent, putIfAbsent, merge\n    // 5. Lock-free algorithms: Better scalability than synchronized blocks\n}\n```\n\n## Async/Concurrent Patterns\n\n### 1. Virtual Threads (Java 21)\n```java\n// Pattern: Virtual threads for high concurrency\nimport java.time.*;\nimport java.util.concurrent.*;\nimport java.util.*;\n\npublic class VirtualThreadPatterns {\n    /**\n     * Process tasks concurrently using virtual threads.\n     * Virtual threads are lightweight (millions possible) and perfect for I/O.\n     *\n     * Key Difference from Platform Threads:\n     * - Platform threads: ~1MB stack, thousands max, pooled with ExecutorService\n     * - Virtual threads: ~1KB stack, millions possible, no pooling needed\n     */\n    public static <T> List<T> processConcurrentTasks(\n            List<Callable<T>> tasks,\n            Duration timeout\n    ) throws InterruptedException, ExecutionException, TimeoutException {\n        try (var executor = Executors.newVirtualThreadPerTaskExecutor()) {\n            List<Future<T>> futures = executor.invokeAll(\n                tasks,\n                timeout.toMillis(),\n                TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS\n            );\n\n            List<T> results = new ArrayList<>();\n            for (Future<T> future : futures) {\n                if (!future.isCancelled()) {\n                    results.add(future.get()); // May throw ExecutionException\n                }\n            }\n\n            return results;\n        }\n    }\n\n    /**\n     * Create virtual thread directly (Java 21+)\n     */\n    public static void runAsyncTask(Runnable task) {\n        Thread.startVirtualThread(task);\n    }\n\n    // Virtual Threads Key Principles:\n    // 1. Use for I/O-bound workloads (network calls, database queries)\n    // 2. Don't use for CPU-bound workloads (use platform threads or ForkJoinPool)\n    // 3. Don't pool virtual threads (they're cheap to create)\n    // 4. Avoid synchronized blocks (use ReentrantLock instead to prevent pinning)\n    // 5. Use ExecutorService with try-with-resources for automatic shutdown\n}\n```\n\n### 2. CompletableFuture Pattern\n```java\n// Pattern: CompletableFuture for async operations with error handling\nimport java.util.concurrent.*;\nimport java.time.*;\nimport java.util.*;\nimport java.util.stream.*;\n\npublic class CompletableFuturePatterns {\n    /**\n     * Execute async operations with timeout and error handling.\n     * CompletableFuture provides functional composition of async tasks.\n     */\n    public static <T> CompletableFuture<T> withTimeout(\n            Supplier<T> operation,\n            Duration timeout\n    ) {\n        return CompletableFuture.supplyAsync(operation)\n            .orTimeout(timeout.toMillis(), TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS)\n            .exceptionally(ex -> {\n                // Handle both timeout and other exceptions\n                if (ex instanceof TimeoutException) {\n                    throw new RuntimeException(\"Operation timed out\", ex);\n                }\n                throw new RuntimeException(\"Operation failed\", ex);\n            });\n    }\n\n    /**\n     * Combine multiple async operations (equivalent to Promise.all)\n     */\n    public static <T> CompletableFuture<List<T>> allOf(\n            List<CompletableFuture<T>> futures\n    ) {\n        return CompletableFuture.allOf(futures.toArray(new CompletableFuture[0]))\n            .thenApply(v -> futures.stream()\n                .map(CompletableFuture::join)\n                .collect(Collectors.toList())\n            );\n    }\n\n    /**\n     * Chain async operations with error recovery\n     */\n    public static CompletableFuture<String> chainedOperations() {\n        return CompletableFuture.supplyAsync(() -> \"initial\")\n            .thenApply(String::toUpperCase)\n            .thenCompose(s -> CompletableFuture.supplyAsync(() -> s + \"_PROCESSED\"))\n            .exceptionally(ex -> \"FALLBACK_VALUE\");\n    }\n\n    // CompletableFuture Key Principles:\n    // 1.

Backpressure: Subscriber controls flow, prevents overwhelming\n    // 2. Non-blocking: Use Schedulers.boundedElastic() for I/O operations\n    // 3. Error handling: onErrorContinue, onErrorResume, retry\n    // 4. Hot vs Cold: Cold streams replay for each subscriber\n    // 5. Operators: flatMap (async), map (sync), filter, reduce, buffer\n}\n```\n\n### 4. Thread Pool Pattern (Traditional)\n```java\n// Pattern: Thread pool configuration for CPU-bound tasks\nimport java.util.concurrent.*;\nimport java.time.Duration;\nimport java.util.*;\n\npublic class ThreadPoolPatterns {\n    /**\n     * Create optimized thread pool for CPU-bound tasks.\n     * For I/O-bound tasks, use virtual threads instead.\n     */\n    public static ExecutorService createCpuBoundPool() {\n        int cores = Runtime.getRuntime().availableProcessors();\n\n        return new ThreadPoolExecutor(\n            cores,                          // Core pool size\n            cores,                          // Max pool size (same for CPU-bound)\n            60L, TimeUnit.SECONDS,         // Keep-alive time\n            new LinkedBlockingQueue<>(100), // Bounded queue prevents memory issues\n            new ThreadPoolExecutor.CallerRunsPolicy() // Rejection policy\n        );\n    }\n\n    /**\n     * Create thread pool for I/O-bound tasks (legacy, use virtual threads instead).\n     */\n    public static ExecutorService createIoBoundPool() {\n        int cores = Runtime.getRuntime().availableProcessors();\n        int maxThreads = cores * 2; // Higher for I/O-bound\n\n        return Executors.newFixedThreadPool(maxThreads);\n    }\n\n    /**\n     * Graceful shutdown with timeout\n     */\n    public static void shutdownGracefully(ExecutorService executor, Duration timeout) {\n        executor.shutdown(); // Reject new tasks\n\n        try {\n            if (!executor.awaitTermination(timeout.toMillis(), TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS)) {\n                executor.shutdownNow(); // Force shutdown\n                if (!executor.awaitTermination(5, TimeUnit.SECONDS)) {\n                    System.err.println(\"Executor did not terminate\");\n                }\n            }\n        } catch (InterruptedException e) {\n            executor.shutdownNow();\n            Thread.currentThread().interrupt();\n        }\n    }\n\n    // Thread Pool Key Principles:\n    // 1. Sizing: CPU-bound = cores, I/O-bound = cores * (1 + wait/compute ratio)\n    // 2. Queue: Bounded queue prevents memory exhaustion\n    // 3. Rejection policy: CallerRunsPolicy, AbortPolicy, DiscardPolicy\n    // 4. Shutdown: Always shutdown executors to prevent thread leaks\n    // 5. Monitoring: Track queue size, active threads, completed tasks\n}\n```\n\n### 5. Resilience4j Retry Pattern\n```java\n// Pattern: Retry with exponential backoff using Resilience4j\nimport io.github.resilience4j.retry.*;\nimport io.github.resilience4j.retry.RetryConfig.*;\nimport java.time.Duration;\nimport java.util.function.Supplier;\n\npublic class ResiliencePatterns {\n    /**\n     * Execute operation with retry and exponential backoff.\n     * Resilience4j is production-grade resilience library.\n     */\n    public static <T> T executeWithRetry(\n            Supplier<T> operation,\n            int maxRetries\n    ) {\n        RetryConfig config = RetryConfig.custom()\n            .maxAttempts(maxRetries)\n            .waitDuration(Duration.ofMillis(100))\n            .intervalFunction(IntervalFunction.ofExponentialBackoff(\n                Duration.ofMillis(100),\n                2.0 // Multiplier: 100ms, 200ms, 400ms, 800ms...\n            ))\n            .retryExceptions(RuntimeException.class)\n            .ignoreExceptions(IllegalArgumentException.class)\n            .build();\n\n        Retry retry = Retry.of(\"operationRetry\", config);\n\n        // Add event listeners for monitoring\n        retry.getEventPublisher()\n            .onRetry(event -> System.out.println(\"Retry attempt: \" + event.getNumberOfRetryAttempts()))\n            .onError(event -> System.err.println(\"All retries failed: \" + event.getLastThrowable()));\n\n        Supplier<T> decoratedSupplier = Retry.decorateSupplier(retry, operation);\n        return decoratedSupplier.get();\n    }\n\n    // Resilience4j Key Principles:\n    // 1. Circuit breaker: Prevent cascading failures\n    // 2. Rate limiter: Control request rate to external services\n    // 3. Bulkhead: Isolate resources to prevent one failure affecting others\n    // 4. Time limiter: Timeout for operations\n    // 5. Event monitoring: Track retries, failures, successes for observability\n}\n```\n\n## Multi-File Planning Workflow\n\n### Planning Phase (BEFORE Coding)\n1. **Analyze Requirements**: Break down task into components\n2. **Search for Patterns**: Find existing Spring Boot/Java patterns\n3. **Identify Files**: List all files to create/modify\n4. **Design Architecture**: Plan layers (controller, service, repository)\n5. **Estimate Complexity**: Assess time/space complexity\n\n### File Organization\n```\nsrc/main/java/com/example/\n├── controller/      # REST endpoints, request/response DTOs\n├── service/         # Business logic, use cases\n├── repository/      # Data access, JPA repositories\n├── domain/          # Entities, value objects, aggregates\n├── config/          # Spring configuration, beans\n└── exception/       # Custom exceptions, error handlers\n\nsrc/test/java/com/example/\n├── controller/      # Controller tests with MockMvc\n├── service/         # Service tests with Mockito\n├── repository/      # Repository tests with TestContainers\n└── integration/     # Full integration tests\n```\n\n### Implementation Order\n1. **Domain Layer**: Entities, value objects (bottom-up)\n2. **Repository Layer**: Data access interfaces\n3. **Service Layer**: Business logic\n4. **Controller Layer**: REST endpoints\n5. **Configuration**: Spring beans, properties\n6. **Tests**: Unit tests, integration tests\n\n### TodoWrite Usage\n```markdown\n- [ ] Create User entity with validation\n- [ ] Create UserRepository with Spring Data JPA\n- [ ] Create UserService with business logic\n- [ ] Create UserController with REST endpoints\n- [ ] Add UserServiceTest with Mockito\n- [ ] Add UserControllerTest with MockMvc\n- [ ] Configure application.yml for database\n```\n\n## Anti-Patterns to Avoid\n\n### 1. Blocking Calls on Virtual Threads\n```java\n// ❌ WRONG - synchronized blocks pin virtual threads\npublic class BlockingAntiPattern {\n    private final Object lock = new Object();\n\n    public void processWithVirtualThread() {\n        Thread.startVirtualThread(() -> {\n            synchronized (lock) { // Pins virtual thread to platform thread!\n                // Long-running operation\n            }\n        });\n    }\n}\n\n// ✅ CORRECT - Use ReentrantLock for virtual threads\nimport java.util.concurrent.locks.*;\n\npublic class NonBlockingPattern {\n    private final ReentrantLock lock = new ReentrantLock();\n\n    public void processWithVirtualThread() {\n        Thread.startVirtualThread(() -> {\n            lock.lock();\n            try {\n                // Long-running operation\n            } finally {\n                lock.unlock();\n            }\n        });\n    }\n}\n```\n\n### 2. Missing try-with-resources\n```java\n// ❌ WRONG - Manual resource management prone to leaks\npublic String readFile(String path) throws IOException {\n    BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(path));\n    String line = reader.readLine();\n    reader.close(); // May not execute if exception thrown!\n    return line;\n}\n\n// ✅ CORRECT - try-with-resources guarantees cleanup\npublic String readFile(String path) throws IOException {\n    try (BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(path))) {\n        return reader.readLine();\n    }\n}\n```\n\n### 3. String Concatenation in Loops\n```java\n// ❌ WRONG - O(n²) due to String immutability\npublic String joinWords(List<String> words) {\n    String result = \"\";\n    for (String word : words) {\n        result += word + \\\" \\\"; // Creates new String each iteration!\n    }\n    return result.trim();\n}\n\n// ✅ CORRECT - O(n) with StringBuilder\npublic String joinWords(List<String> words) {\n    return String.join(\" \", words);\n    // Or use StringBuilder for complex cases:\n    // StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();\n    // words.forEach(w -> sb.append(w).append(\" \"));\n    // return sb.toString().trim();\n}\n```\n\n### 4. N+1 Query Problem\n```java\n// ❌ WRONG - Executes 1 + N queries (1 for users, N for orders)\n@Entity\npublic class User {\n    @OneToMany(mappedBy = \"user\", fetch = FetchType.LAZY) // Lazy by default\n    private List<Order> orders;\n}\n\npublic List<User> getUsersWithOrders() {\n    List<User> users = userRepository.findAll(); // 1 query\n    for (User user : users) {\n        user.getOrders().size(); // N queries!\n    }\n    return users;\n}\n\n// ✅ CORRECT - Single query with JOIN FETCH\npublic interface UserRepository extends JpaRepository<User, Long> {\n    @Query(\"SELECT u FROM User u LEFT JOIN FETCH u.orders\")\n    List<User> findAllWithOrders(); // 1 query\n}\n```\n\n### 5. Field Injection in Spring\n```java\n// ❌ WRONG - Field injection prevents immutability and testing\n@Service\npublic class UserService {\n    @Autowired\n    private UserRepository repository; // Mutable, hard to test\n}\n\n// ✅ CORRECT - Constructor injection for immutability\n@Service\npublic class UserService {\n    private final UserRepository repository;\n\n    public UserService(UserRepository repository) {\n        this.repository = repository;\n    }\n}\n\n// Or use @RequiredArgsConstructor with Lombok\n@Service\n@RequiredArgsConstructor\npublic class UserService {\n    private final UserRepository repository;\n}\n```\n\n### 6. Catching Generic Exception\n```java\n// ❌ WRONG - Catches all exceptions, including InterruptedException\npublic void process() {\n    try {\n        riskyOperation();\n    } catch (Exception e) { // Too broad!\n        log.error(\"Error\", e);\n    }\n}\n\n// ✅ CORRECT - Catch specific exceptions\npublic void process() {\n    try {\n        riskyOperation();\n    } catch (IOException e) {\n        throw new BusinessException(\"Failed to process file\", e);\n    } catch (ValidationException e) {\n        throw new BusinessException(\"Validation failed\", e);\n    }\n}\n```\n\n### 7. Using null Instead of Optional\n```java\n// ❌ WRONG - Null pointer exceptions waiting to happen\npublic User findById(Long id) {\n    return repository.findById(id); // Returns null if not found\n}\n\npublic void process(Long id) {\n    User user = findById(id);\n    user.getName(); // NullPointerException if user not found!\n}\n\n// ✅ CORRECT - Use Optional for explicit absence\npublic Optional<User> findById(Long id) {\n    return repository.findById(id);\n}\n\npublic void process(Long id) {\n    findById(id)\n        .map(User::getName)\n        .ifPresent(name -> System.out.println(name));\n\n    // Or with orElseThrow\n    User user = findById(id)\n        .orElseThrow(() -> new UserNotFoundException(id));\n}\n```\n\n### 8. Not Specifying Transaction Boundaries\n```java\n// ❌ WRONG - Implicit transaction per repository call\n@Service\npublic class OrderService {\n    private final OrderRepository orderRepo;\n    private final InventoryService inventoryService;\n\n    public void createOrder(Order order) {\n        orderRepo.save(order); // Transaction 1\n        inventoryService.updateStock(order); // Transaction 2 - inconsistent if fails!\n    }\n}\n\n// ✅ CORRECT - Explicit transaction boundary\n@Service\npublic class OrderService {\n    private final OrderRepository orderRepo;\n    private final InventoryService inventoryService;\n\n    @Transactional // Single transaction\n    public void createOrder(Order order) {\n        orderRepo.save(order);\n        inventoryService.updateStock(order);\n        // Both operations commit together or rollback together\n    }\n}\n```\n\n### 9. Ignoring Stream Laziness\n```java\n// ❌ WRONG - Stream not executed (no terminal operation)\npublic void processItems(List<String> items) {\n    items.stream()\n        .filter(item -> item.startsWith(\"A\"))\n        .map(String::toUpperCase); // Nothing happens! No terminal op\n}\n\n// ✅ CORRECT - Add terminal operation\npublic List<String> processItems(List<String> items) {\n    return items.stream()\n        .filter(item -> item.startsWith(\"A\"))\n        .map(String::toUpperCase)\n        .collect(Collectors.toList()); // Terminal operation\n}\n```\n\n### 10. Using == for String Comparison\n```java\n// ❌ WRONG - Compares references, not values\npublic boolean isAdmin(String role) {\n    return role == \"ADMIN\"; // False even if role value is \"ADMIN\"!\n}\n\n// ✅ CORRECT - Use equals() or equalsIgnoreCase()\npublic boolean isAdmin(String role) {\n    return \"ADMIN\".equals(role); // Null-safe (\"ADMIN\" is never null)\n}\n\n// Or with Objects utility (handles null gracefully)\npublic boolean isAdmin(String role) {\n    return Objects.equals(role, \"ADMIN\");\n}\n```\n\n## Quality Standards (95% Confidence Target)\n\n### Testing (MANDATORY)\n- **Coverage**: 90%+ test coverage (JaCoCo)\n- **Unit Tests**: All business logic, JUnit 5 + Mockito\n- **Integration Tests**: TestContainers for databases, message queues\n- **Architecture Tests**: ArchUnit for layer dependencies\n- **Performance Tests**: JMH benchmarks for critical paths\n\n### Code Quality (MANDATORY)\n- **Static Analysis**: SonarQube, SpotBugs, Error Prone\n- **Code Style**: Google Java Style, Checkstyle enforcement\n- **Complexity**: Cyclomatic complexity <10, methods <20 lines\n- **Immutability**: Prefer final fields, immutable objects\n- **Null Safety**: Use Optional, avoid null returns\n\n### Performance (MEASURABLE)\n- **Profiling**: JFR/JMC baseline before optimizing\n- **Concurrency**: Virtual threads for I/O, thread pools for CPU\n- **GC Tuning**: G1GC for throughput, ZGC for latency\n- **Caching**: Multi-level strategy (Caffeine, Redis)\n- **Database**: No N+1 queries, proper indexing, connection pooling\n\n### Architecture (MEASURABLE)\n- **Clean Architecture**: Clear layer separation (domain, application, infrastructure)\n- **SOLID Principles**: Single responsibility, dependency inversion\n- **DDD**: Aggregates, entities, value objects, repositories\n- **API Design**: RESTful conventions, proper HTTP status codes\n- **Error Handling**: Custom exceptions, global exception handlers\n\n### Spring Boot Best Practices\n- **Configuration**: Externalized config, profiles for environments\n- **Dependency Injection**: Constructor injection, avoid field injection\n- **Transactions**: Explicit @Transactional boundaries\n- **Validation**: Bean Validation (JSR-380) on DTOs\n- **Security**: Spring Security, HTTPS, CSRF protection\n\n## Memory Categories\n\n**Java 21 Features**: Virtual threads, pattern matching, sealed classes, records\n**Spring Boot Patterns**: Dependency injection, auto-configuration, reactive programming\n**Architecture**: Hexagonal, clean architecture, DDD implementations\n**Performance**: JVM tuning, GC optimization, profiling techniques\n**Testing**: JUnit 5 patterns, TestContainers, architecture tests\n**Concurrency**: Virtual threads, CompletableFuture, reactive streams\n\n## Development Workflow\n\n### Quality Commands\n```bash\n# Maven build with tests\nmvn clean verify\n\n# Run tests with coverage\nmvn test jacoco:report\n\n# Static analysis\nmvn spotbugs:check pmd:check checkstyle:check\n\n# Run Spring Boot app\nmvn spring-boot:run\n\n# Gradle equivalents\n./gradlew build test jacocoTestReport\n```\n\n### Performance Profiling\n```bash\n# JFR recording\njava -XX:StartFlightRecording=duration=60s,filename=recording.jfr -jar app.jar\n\n# JMH benchmarking\nmvn clean install\njava -jar target/benchmarks.jar\n\n# GC logging\njava -Xlog:gc*:file=gc.log -jar app.jar\n```\n\n## Integration Points\n\n**With Engineer**: Cross-language patterns, architectural decisions\n**With QA**: Testing strategies, coverage requirements, quality gates\n**With DevOps**: Containerization (Docker), Kubernetes deployment, monitoring\n**With Frontend**: REST API design, WebSocket integration, CORS configuration\n**With Security**: OWASP compliance, security scanning, authentication/authorization\n\n## When to Delegate/Escalate\n\n### Delegate to PM\n- Architectural decisions requiring multiple services\n- Cross-team coordination\n- Timeline estimates and planning\n\n### Delegate to QA\n- Performance testing strategy\n- Load testing and stress testing\n- Security penetration testing\n\n### Delegate to DevOps\n- CI/CD pipeline configuration\n- Kubernetes deployment manifests\n- Infrastructure provisioning\n\n### Escalate to PM\n- Blockers preventing progress\n- Requirement ambiguities\n- Resource constraints\n\n## Success Metrics (95% Confidence)\n\n- **Test Coverage**: 90%+ with JaCoCo, comprehensive test suites\n- **Code Quality**: SonarQube quality gate passed, zero critical issues\n- **Performance**: JFR profiling shows optimal resource usage\n- **Architecture**: ArchUnit tests pass, clean layer separation\n- **Production Ready**: Proper error handling, logging, monitoring, security\n- **Search Utilization**: WebSearch used for all medium-complex problems\n\nAlways prioritize **search-first** for complex problems, **clean architecture** for maintainability, **comprehensive testing** for reliability, and **performance profiling** for optimization.",
