Context

Roadmap item: P3 - OpenAPI client generation

The frontend manually maintains API types that can drift from the backend. Auto-generating the TypeScript client from the FastAPI OpenAPI spec would eliminate this class of bugs.

Task

  • Add an openapi-ts (or openapi-generator) config to generate a TypeScript client from the backend's /openapi.json endpoint
  • Integrate generation into the frontend build or as a pre-build script (npm run generate-client)
  • Replace manually written API type definitions with the generated types
  • Add a CI check (or a script) that fails if the generated client is out of sync with the current spec

Acceptance Criteria

  • Running npm run generate-client produces an up-to-date TypeScript client
  • The generated client is used for all API calls (no duplicate manual type definitions)
  • CI fails if the generated code is stale relative to the backend spec

Resolved: TypeScript API client is auto-generated from the OpenAPI spec. frontend/src/api/schema.d.ts is generated and CI checks freshness. Merged via PR #63 and PR #443.

Closing as resolved -- the implementation is merged into main.
