Background

Patent.patent_id is annotated as int in types.py but every call site and API response treats it as a str (e.g., "US123456A2"). This mismatch causes mypy/pyright errors and could lead to subtle bugs if code branches on the type.

What to do

  1. Change the annotation of patent_id in types.py from int to str.
  2. Run mypy (or pyright) and fix any cascading type errors.
  3. Ensure all existing tests pass.

Acceptance criteria

  • types.py annotates patent_id: str.
  • mypy src/ exits 0 (or the pre-existing error count does not increase).
  • All existing tests continue to pass.
