# Technical Standards Enforcement Task

## Purpose
Enforce technical standards across all development activities to ensure consistency, maintainability, and quality. This task provides systematic validation of code against established technical standards and best practices.

## Integration with Memory System
- **What patterns to search for**: Common standard violations, successful enforcement strategies, team compliance patterns, technical debt accumulation
- **What outcomes to track**: Standards compliance rates, technical debt trends, code quality metrics, team adoption success
- **What learnings to capture**: Effective enforcement approaches, standard evolution needs, team training requirements, automation opportunities

## Technical Standards Categories

### Code Standards
```yaml
code_standards:
  naming_conventions:
    - classes: PascalCase
    - functions: camelCase
    - constants: UPPER_SNAKE_CASE
    - files: kebab-case
  
  structure:
    - max_file_length: 500
    - max_function_length: 50
    - max_cyclomatic_complexity: 10
    - max_nesting_depth: 4
  
  documentation:
    - functions: required_jsdoc
    - classes: required_comprehensive
    - complex_logic: inline_comments_required
```

### Architecture Standards
- [ ] **Pattern Compliance**: Repository, Service, Controller patterns
- [ ] **Dependency Direction**: Clean architecture principles
- [ ] **Module Boundaries**: Clear separation of concerns
- [ ] **API Contracts**: Consistent interface design
- [ ] **Error Handling**: Standardized error propagation

### Security Standards
- [ ] **Authentication**: OAuth2/JWT implementation
- [ ] **Authorization**: RBAC implementation
- [ ] **Data Validation**: Input sanitization
- [ ] **Encryption**: Data at rest and in transit
- [ ] **Secrets Management**: No hardcoded credentials

### Performance Standards
- [ ] **Response Times**: <200ms for API calls
- [ ] **Query Optimization**: No N+1 queries
- [ ] **Caching Strategy**: Redis for hot data
- [ ] **Resource Limits**: Memory and CPU boundaries
- [ ] **Async Operations**: For long-running tasks

## Enforcement Process

### Step 1: Automated Validation
```python
def run_automated_checks():
    checks = {
        "linting": run_eslint_prettier(),
        "type_checking": run_typescript_check(),
        "test_coverage": run_coverage_report(),
        "security_scan": run_security_audit(),
        "performance": run_lighthouse_audit()
    }
    return aggregate_results(checks)
```

### Step 2: Manual Review Checklist
- [ ] **Architecture Alignment**: Follows established patterns
- [ ] **Code Clarity**: Self-documenting and readable
- [ ] **Error Scenarios**: All edge cases handled
- [ ] **Performance Impact**: No obvious bottlenecks
- [ ] **Security Considerations**: No vulnerabilities introduced

### Step 3: Standards Violation Tracking
```markdown
## Violation Report
**File**: {filepath}
**Standard**: {violated_standard}
**Severity**: {critical/high/medium/low}
**Description**: {what_is_wrong}
**Fix**: {how_to_fix}
**Reference**: {link_to_standard}
```

## Quality Gates

### Pre-Commit Gate
- [ ] Local linting passes
- [ ] Type checking passes
- [ ] Unit tests pass
- [ ] Commit message follows convention

### Pull Request Gate
- [ ] All automated checks pass
- [ ] Code coverage maintained
- [ ] No security vulnerabilities
- [ ] Performance benchmarks met
- [ ] Documentation updated

### Pre-Deploy Gate
- [ ] Integration tests pass
- [ ] Security scan clean
- [ ] Performance tests pass
- [ ] Rollback plan documented

## Enforcement Strategies

### Progressive Enhancement
1. **Warning Phase**: Notify but don't block
2. **Soft Enforcement**: Block with override option
3. **Hard Enforcement**: Block without override
4. **Continuous Monitoring**: Track compliance trends

### Team Enablement
```python
enablement_activities = {
    "training": ["standards workshop", "best practices session"],
    "documentation": ["standards wiki", "example repository"],
    "tooling": ["IDE plugins", "pre-commit hooks"],
    "mentoring": ["pair programming", "code review feedback"]
}
```

## Success Metrics
- Standards compliance rate >95%
- Technical debt ratio <5%
- Code review cycle time <2 hours
- Zero critical violations in production
- Team satisfaction with standards >80%

## Memory Integration
```python
# Standards enforcement memory
enforcement_memory = {
    "type": "standards_enforcement",
    "enforcement_run": {
        "timestamp": run_timestamp,
        "scope": files_checked,
        "standards": standards_applied
    },
    "violations": {
        "total": violation_count,
        "by_severity": severity_breakdown,
        "by_category": category_breakdown,
        "repeat_offenders": frequent_violations
    },
    "trends": {
        "compliance_rate": current_compliance,
        "improvement": vs_last_period,
        "problem_areas": persistent_issues
    },
