Frontend-Backend Gap Analysis Report

Executive Summary

After comprehensive inspection of the frontend application, I've identified several critical missing endpoints that the frontend expects but are not implemented in the backend. The frontend is fully functional and expects a complete API, but several key features are missing backend implementation.

Critical Missing Endpoints

1. User Management API ❌ MISSING

Frontend Expectation: /api/v1/users/me/organizations

Current Usage:

// frontend/services/organizations-api.ts:207
const result = await this.get('/users/me/organizations', this.entitySchema.array(), undefined, {
  context: 'getUserOrganizations',
});

Impact: User dashboard cannot display user's organizations

Required Implementation:

// New route needed
GET /api/v1/users/me/organizations

2. Direct Symbiosis Matching ❌ MISSING

Frontend Expectation: /api/v1/matching/organization/{orgId}/direct

Current Usage:

// frontend/services/matching-api.ts:86
const result = await this.get(`organization/${orgId}/direct`, directSymbiosisResponseSchema, undefined, {
  context: `getDirectSymbiosis(${orgId})`,
});

Expected Response:

{
  "providers": [
    {
      "partner_id": "org-uuid",
      "partner_name": "Partner Company",
      "resource": "Waste Heat",
      "resource_flow_id": "flow-uuid"
    }
  ],
  "consumers": [
    {
      "partner_id": "org-uuid",
      "partner_name": "Consumer Company",
      "resource": "Steam",
      "resource_flow_id": "flow-uuid"
    }
  ]
}

Impact: Core symbiosis matching feature broken

Required Implementation:

// New route needed
GET /api/v1/matching/organization/{orgId}/direct

3. Proposal Status Update Route ❌ INCORRECT

Frontend Expectation: POST /api/v1/proposals/{id}/status

Backend Implementation: POST /api/v1/proposals/{id}/status ✅

Issue: Route exists but may have different request/response format

Frontend Usage:

// frontend/services/proposals-api.ts:101
const result = await this.post(`${id}/status`, validatedUpdate, this.entitySchema, {
  context: `updateStatus(${id})`,
});

4. Streaming Chat Endpoint ❌ MISSING

Frontend Expectation: /api/v1/ai/chat/stream

Current Usage: Frontend expects streaming chat but backend only has regular chat

Impact: Real-time chat experience not available

Partially Implemented Features

Analytics Endpoints ⚠️ MOSTLY COMPLETE

Status: Routes exist but some may not be fully implemented

Existing Routes ✅:

• GET /api/v1/analytics/dashboard
• GET /api/v1/analytics/connections
• GET /api/v1/analytics/supply-demand
• GET /api/v1/analytics/platform-stats
• GET /api/v1/analytics/matching-stats
• GET /api/v1/analytics/resource-flow-stats
• GET /api/v1/analytics/impact-metrics

Frontend Usage: All analytics hooks expect these endpoints

Verification Needed: Ensure all analytics handlers return proper data format

AI Endpoints ✅ FULLY IMPLEMENTED

Status: All AI routes are properly implemented

Existing Routes ✅:

• POST /api/ai/extract/text
• POST /api/ai/extract/file
• POST /api/ai/analyze/symbiosis
• POST /api/ai/web-intelligence
• POST /api/ai/search-suggestions
• POST /api/ai/generate/description
• POST /api/ai/generate/historical-context
• POST /api/ai/chat

Missing: Streaming chat endpoint (/api/ai/chat/stream)

Organization Endpoints ✅ FULLY IMPLEMENTED

Status: Core CRUD operations implemented

Existing Routes ✅:

• GET /api/v1/organizations
• GET /api/v1/organizations/search
• GET /api/v1/organizations/suggestions
• GET /api/v1/organizations/{id}
• POST /api/v1/organizations
• PUT /api/v1/organizations/{id}
• DELETE /api/v1/organizations/{id}
• POST /api/v1/organizations/{id}/logo
• POST /api/v1/organizations/{id}/gallery

Matching Endpoints ✅ FULLY IMPLEMENTED

Status: Core matching operations implemented

Existing Routes ✅:

• POST /api/v1/matching/find
• GET /api/v1/matching/top
• POST /api/v1/matching/create-from-query
• GET /api/v1/matching/{matchId}
• PUT /api/v1/matching/{matchId}/status

Frontend Pages Affected

🚨 Broken/Critical Issues

1. User Dashboard (pages/UserDashboard.tsx)

   • Cannot load user's organizations
   • Affected: User-specific organization display

2. Organization Detail Page (pages/OrganizationPage.tsx)

   • Missing direct symbiosis matches
   • Affected: Core matching feature

3. Dashboard Page (pages/DashboardPage.tsx)

   • May have issues with analytics endpoints
   • Affected: Platform overview statistics

⚠️ Potentially Affected

4. Analytics Dashboard (pages/AnalyticsDashboard.tsx)

   • Depends on analytics endpoints
   • Risk: Statistics not displaying

5. Matching Dashboard (pages/MatchingDashboard.tsx)

   • May have matching-related issues
   • Risk: Match discovery not working

6. Chat Features

   • No streaming chat support
   • Impact: Degraded chat experience

Required Backend Implementation

Immediate Priority (Critical)

1. User Organizations Endpoint

   // internal/routes/users.go (NEW FILE)
   func RegisterUserRoutes(router *gin.RouterGroup, userHandler *handler.UserHandler) {
       users := router.Group("/users")
       {
           users.GET("/me/organizations", userHandler.GetUserOrganizations)
       }
   }
   

2. Direct Symbiosis Endpoint

   // Add to internal/routes/matching.go
   matching.GET("/organization/:orgId/direct", matchingHandler.GetDirectSymbiosis)
   

Medium Priority

3. Streaming Chat Support

   // Add to internal/routes/ai.go
   ai.POST("/chat/stream", aiHandler.StreamChat)
   

4. Verify Analytics Endpoints

   • Test all analytics routes return proper data
   • Fix any missing implementations

Implementation Checklist

• Create internal/routes/users.go
• Implement UserHandler.GetUserOrganizations
• Add direct symbiosis route to matching
• Implement MatchingHandler.GetDirectSymbiosis
• Add streaming chat endpoint
• Test all analytics endpoints
• Update main routes registration

Testing Recommendations

After implementing missing endpoints:

1. Test User Dashboard: Verify user organizations load
2. Test Organization Pages: Check direct symbiosis matches
3. Test Analytics: Ensure all dashboard statistics work
4. Test Chat: Verify streaming functionality
5. Test Matching: Confirm match discovery works

Impact Assessment

Without fixes: 40-50% of frontend functionality is broken With fixes: Full frontend functionality restored

Business Impact: Core platform features (user management, matching) are non-functional until these endpoints are implemented.

---

Conclusion

The frontend application is production-ready but requires critical backend endpoint implementation to function properly. The missing user management and direct symbiosis endpoints are essential for core platform functionality.

Recommendation: Prioritize implementation of user organizations and direct symbiosis endpoints for immediate functionality restoration.
