**Week 1-2**: Foundation
- Set up Python project
- Implement basic models and schemas

**Week 2-3**: Core Services
- Implement code generation, compilation, execution
- Integrate with one LLM provider

**Week 3-4**: API Routes
- Build REST API
- Test with Postman/curl

**Week 4-5**: Integration Testing
- Full end-to-end tests
- Performance optimization

**Week 5+**: Production Ready
- Deployment
- Monitoring

## 🔧 Handling Dynamic LLM Configuration

### User Flow

```
User Sets LLM Config
  ↓
Store in UserLLMConfig (DB)
  ↓
On Code Generation Request:
  - Fetch user's config
  - Instantiate correct provider
  - Call generate_code()
  ↓
LLM generates TypeScript
```

### Implementation

**1. Database Schema** (if using SQLAlchemy):
```python
class UserLLMConfigDB(Base):
    __tablename__ = "user_llm_configs"
    
    id: Mapped[int] = mapped_column(primary_key=True)
    user_id: Mapped[str] = mapped_column(index=True)
    provider: Mapped[str]  # "openai", "anthropic", etc.
    model: Mapped[str]
    api_key: Mapped[str]  # Encrypted in production!
    api_base: Mapped[Optional[str]]
    parameters: Mapped[Optional[str]]  # JSON
    created_at: Mapped[datetime]
    updated_at: Mapped[datetime]
```

**2. API Endpoint to Update Config**:
```python
@app.post("/api/config/llm")
async def update_llm_config(
    config: UserLLMConfig,
    user_id: str = Depends(get_current_user),
):
    # Validate config can connect
    provider = LLMProviderFactory.get_provider(config)
    # Test API call (optional)
    
    # Save to DB
    db_config = UserLLMConfigDB(
        user_id=user_id,
        provider=config.provider.value,
        model=config.model,
        api_key=encrypt(config.api_key),  # Encrypt!
    )
    session.add(db_config)
    session.commit()
    
    return {"status": "saved"}
```

**3. Fetch & Use in Code Generation**:
```python
async def execute(self, request, user_id, user_llm_config):
    # user_llm_config comes from request dependency
    code = await self.code_gen.generate_code(
        CodeGenerationRequest(...),
        user_llm_config,  # User's chosen provider
    )
```

## 🚀 Migration Automation

### Using the Migration Script

```bash
# Analyze Rust codebase
python migrate_from_rust.py /path/to/goose-codebase

# Generate Python project structure
python migrate_from_rust.py /path/to/goose-codebase \
    --output vibe-python \
    --generate-project

# Generate only models
python migrate_from_rust.py /path/to/goose-codebase \
    --models-only

# Generate only services
python migrate_from_rust.py /path/to/goose-codebase \
    --services-only
```

The script will create:
- `models/auto_generated.py` - Pydantic models from Rust structs
- `services/auto_generated.py` - Service stubs
- `core/auto_generated_providers.py` - Provider adapters
- `MIGRATION_REPORT.md` - Analysis report

## 🆘 Common Issues & Solutions

### Issue 1: TypeScript Compilation Fails
**Solution**: Check `tsc` is installed globally
```bash
npm install -g typescript
tsc --version  # Should show version
```

### Issue 2: Node Process Hangs
**Solution**: Add timeout and process cleanup
```python
try:
    stdout, stderr = await asyncio.wait_for(
        process.communicate(),
        timeout=30,
    )
except asyncio.TimeoutError:
    process.kill()
    # Handle gracefully
```

### Issue 3: API Key Management
**Solution**: Use environment variables + encryption
```python
from cryptography.fernet import Fernet

CIPHER = Fernet(os.getenv("ENCRYPTION_KEY"))

def encrypt_key(key: str) -> str:
    return CIPHER.encrypt(key.encode()).decode()

def decrypt_key(encrypted: str) -> str:
    return CIPHER.decrypt(encrypted.encode()).decode()
```

### Issue 4: LLM API Rate Limits
**Solution**: Add retry logic with exponential backoff
```python
from tenacity import retry, stop_after_attempt, wait_exponential

@retry(
    stop=stop_after_attempt(3),
    wait=wait_exponential(multiplier=1, min=2, max=10)
)
async def generate_with_retry(self, ...):
    return await self.llm.generate(...)
```
