Roadmap item: P3 - Nice to Have - OpenAPI client generation

Frontend API types are currently maintained manually, which causes drift from the backend schema over time.

What to do

  • Add openapi-typescript (or swagger-typescript-api) to the frontend dev dependencies
  • Add a generate:api npm script that fetches the FastAPI OpenAPI spec and generates a typed client into src/api/generated/
  • Refactor frontend API calls to use the generated client
  • Add the generation step to CI so type drift is detected

Acceptance criteria

  • Running npm run generate:api produces an up-to-date typed client
  • Frontend compiles without type errors using the generated client
  • CI fails if the generated client is out of sync with the spec
  • README documents how to regenerate the client

Triage: Already Resolved

TypeScript API client generation is set up. Files exist at frontend/src/api/client.ts, frontend/src/api/openapi.json, and frontend/src/api/schema.d.ts. The CI pipeline checks that generated types are up to date. Merged in commit cbc8f44.

Closing as resolved.
