+# Swagger Documentation Skill
+
+**Skill Name:** `swagger-documentation`
+**Status:** ✅ Active
+**Version:** 1.0.0
+
+## 📋 Overview
+
+This skill provides comprehensive guidance and automation for managing OpenAPI/Swagger documentation in the DanceLessonsCoach project. It captures our best practices, tagging strategies, and automation patterns for maintaining high-quality API documentation.
+
+## 🎯 Key Features
+
+### 1. **Hierarchical Tagging System**
+Our proprietary `Domain/Version/Function` tagging structure:
+- `API/v1/Greeting`, `API/v2/Greeting` for business endpoints
+- `System/Health`, `System/Metrics` for infrastructure endpoints
+- Clear separation between API domains and versions
+
+### 2. **Standardized Annotations**
+Pre-defined templates for all endpoint types:
+- Basic endpoints
+- Parameterized endpoints  
+- POST endpoints with request bodies
+- System/health endpoints
+
+### 3. **Automation Scripts**
+Ready-to-use scripts for:
+- Documentation generation
+- Validation and quality checks
+- CI/CD integration
+
+### 4. **Best Practices Guide**
+Comprehensive guidelines covering:
+- Tag consistency rules
+- Annotation completeness
+- Version management
+- Response documentation
+
+## 🚀 Quick Start
+
+### 1. Generate Documentation
+```bash
+# Regenerate all Swagger documentation
+go generate ./pkg/server/
+```
+
+### 2. Verify Structure
+```bash
+# Check hierarchical tags are present
+grep -c "API/v1/Greeting" pkg/server/docs/swagger.json
+grep -c "API/v2/Greeting" pkg/server/docs/swagger.json
+grep -c "System/Health" pkg/server/docs/swagger.json
+```
+
+### 3. Test in Swagger UI
+```bash
+# Access the interactive documentation
+open http://localhost:8080/swagger/
+```
+
+## 📚 Documentation Structure
+
+```
+swagger_documentation/
+├── SKILL.md          # Complete skill documentation
+├── README.md         # This file
+└── scripts/          # Automation scripts (future)
+```
+
+## 🎓 Usage Patterns
+
+### Adding New Endpoints
+1. **Choose the right tag** based on domain/version/function
+2. **Copy annotation template** from SKILL.md
+3. **Add complete annotations** to handler
+4. **Regenerate documentation** with `go generate`
+5. **Verify in Swagger UI**
+
+### Updating Existing Endpoints
+1. **Update handler code** as needed
+2. **Review annotations** for accuracy
+3. **Regenerate documentation**
+4. **Test changes** in Swagger UI
+
+### Adding New API Versions
+1. **Create new tag structure** (e.g., `API/v3/Greeting`)
+2. **Document in SKILL.md**
+3. **Update ADR 0013** with rationale
+4. **Implement endpoints** with new tags
+5. **Regenerate and test**
+
+## 🔧 Technical Details
+
+### Tag Structure Rules
+```
+Domain/Version/Function
+│      │        └─ Specific functionality (Greeting, User, Health)
+│      └─ API version (v1, v2, v3) - for API domain only
+└─ Domain (API, System, Admin)
+```
+
+### Required Flags
+```bash
+# These flags are CRITICAL for multi-package projects
+--parseDependency  # Parse dependent packages
+--parseInternal   # Include internal packages
+```
+
+### Embed Directive
+```go
+//go:embed docs/swagger.json
+var swaggerJSON embed.FS
+```
+

+
+## 📋 Skill Capabilities
+
+### 1. Documentation Generation
+- Auto-generate Swagger docs with proper flags
+- Handle multi-package projects
+- Ensure complete endpoint coverage
+
+### 2. Tag Management
+- Implement hierarchical tagging (`Domain/Version/Function`)
+- Maintain tag consistency
+- Document tag evolution
+
+### 3. Annotation Standards
+- Enforce consistent annotation patterns
+- Validate annotation completeness
+- Provide annotation templates
+
+### 4. Quality Assurance
+- Check for missing documentation

+- Ensure embed directives are correct
+
+## 🔧 Implementation
+
+### Required Tools
+```bash
+# Install swaggo/swag
+go install github.com/swaggo/swag/cmd/swag@latest
+```
+
+### Standard Command
+```bash
+# Generate documentation with proper flags
+swag init -g ./cmd/server/main.go --parseDependency --parseInternal
+```
+
+### Go Generate Directive
+```go
+//go:generate swag init -g ../../cmd/server/main.go --parseDependency --parseInternal
+```
+
+## 🏷️ Hierarchical Tagging System
+
+### Current Standard
+```go
+// API Domain - Business endpoints
+@Tags API/v1/Greeting    # v1 greeting endpoints
+@Tags API/v2/Greeting    # v2 greeting endpoints
+@Tags API/v1/User        # v1 user endpoints (future)
+@Tags API/v2/User        # v2 user endpoints (future)
+
+// System Domain - Infrastructure endpoints
+@Tags System/Health     # Health/readiness endpoints
+@Tags System/Metrics    # Metrics endpoints (future)
+@Tags System/Config     # Configuration endpoints (future)
+
+// Admin Domain - Administrative endpoints
+@Tags Admin/User        # User management (future)
+@Tags Admin/System      # System administration (future)
+```
+
+### Tag Structure Rules
+1. **Domain First**: Always start with domain (`API/`, `System/`, `Admin/`)
+2. **Version Second**: For API domain, include version (`v1/`, `v2/`)
+3. **Function Third**: Specific functionality area (`Greeting`, `User`, `Health`)
+4. **Consistent Capitalization**: Use PascalCase for all components
+
+## 📝 Annotation Templates
+
+### Basic Endpoint
+```go
+// handleGreetQuery godoc
+// @Summary Get default greeting
+// @Description Returns a greeting message with default parameters
+// @Tags API/v1/Greeting
+// @Accept json
+// @Produce json
+// @Success 200 {object} GreetResponse "Successful response"
+// @Router /v1/greet [get]
+func (h *apiV1GreetHandler) handleGreetQuery(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
+    // implementation
+}
+```
+
+### Parameterized Endpoint
+```go
+// handleGreetPath godoc
+// @Summary Get personalized greeting
+// @Description Returns a greeting with the specified name
+// @Tags API/v1/Greeting
+// @Accept json
+// @Produce json
+// @Param name path string true "Name to greet"
+// @Success 200 {object} GreetResponse "Successful response"
+// @Failure 400 {object} ErrorResponse "Invalid name parameter"
+// @Router /v1/greet/{name} [get]
+func (h *apiV1GreetHandler) handleGreetPath(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
+    // implementation
+}
+```
+
+### POST Endpoint with Body
+```go
+// handleGreetPost godoc
+// @Summary Create greeting (v2)
+// @Description Creates a greeting with validation (v2)
+// @Tags API/v2/Greeting
+// @Accept json
+// @Produce json
+// @Param request body GreetRequest true "Greeting request"
+// @Success 200 {object} GreetResponseV2 "Successful response"
+// @Failure 400 {object} ValidationError "Validation error"
+// @Router /v2/greet [post]
+func (h *apiV2GreetHandler) handleGreetPost(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
+    // implementation
+}
+```
+
+### System Endpoint
+```go
+// handleHealth godoc
+// @Summary Health check
+// @Description Check if the service is healthy
+// @Tags System/Health
+// @Accept json
+// @Produce json
+// @Success 200 {object} map[string]string "Service is healthy"
+// @Router /health [get]
+func (s *Server) handleHealth(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
+    // implementation
+}
+```
+
+## 🎯 Best Practices
+
+### 1. Tag Consistency
+- Use the same tag structure across all similar endpoints
+- Don't mix hierarchical and flat tags
+- Document new tags in this skill when introduced
+
+### 2. Annotation Completeness
+- Always include: Summary, Description, Tags, Accept, Produce, Responses
+- Include Parameters for all path/query/body parameters
+- Document all possible response codes
+
+### 3. Response Documentation
+- Use concrete types (`GreetResponse`) not generics
+- Include example values where helpful
+- Document both success and error responses
+
+### 4. Version Management
+- Keep version tags consistent (`v1`, `v2`, not `1.0`, `2.0`)
+- Document breaking changes in ADR when introducing new versions
+- Maintain old versions until formally deprecated
+
+## 🔍 Validation Checklist
+
+### Before Committing Swagger Changes
+- [ ] Run `go generate ./...` to regenerate docs
+- [ ] Verify all endpoints appear in Swagger UI
+- [ ] Check tag hierarchy is correct
+- [ ] Validate JSON schema is valid
+- [ ] Test Swagger UI functionality
+- [ ] Update this skill if new patterns emerge
+
+### Common Issues to Check
+1. **Missing Endpoints**: Ensure all handlers have `@Router` annotations
+2. **Incorrect Tags**: Verify hierarchical structure
+3. **Broken References**: Check `$ref` paths in generated JSON
+4. **Embed Issues**: Confirm `//go:embed` paths are correct
+5. **Flag Problems**: Ensure `--parseDependency --parseInternal` flags are used

+### OpenAPI Documentation
+
+**Swagger UI:** `http://localhost:8080/swagger/`
+**OpenAPI Spec:** `http://localhost:8080/swagger/doc.json`
+
+The API provides interactive documentation using Swagger UI with complete OpenAPI 2.0 specification. All endpoints, request/response models, and validation rules are documented using a **hierarchical tagging system**.
+
+**Features:**
+- Interactive API exploration with hierarchical organization
+- Try-it-out functionality for all endpoints
+- Model schemas with examples
+- Response examples with validation rules
+- **Hierarchical tag structure** for better navigation
+
+**Generation:** Documentation is auto-generated from code annotations using [swaggo/swag](https://github.com/swaggo/swag) with the command:
+
+```bash
+go generate ./pkg/server/
+```
+
+**Tag Organization:**
+- `API/v1/Greeting` - Version 1 greeting endpoints
+- `API/v2/Greeting` - Version 2 greeting endpoints  
+- `System/Health` - Health and readiness endpoints
+
+**Hierarchical Benefits:**
+- Clear separation between API domains (API vs System)
+- Version organization within each domain
+- Natural hierarchy in Swagger UI
+- Scalable for future API growth
+
+```bash
+# Generate documentation
+go generate ./pkg/server/
+```
+
+**Embedded Documentation:** The OpenAPI spec is embedded in the binary using Go's `//go:embed` directive for single-binary deployment.

+## 📦 Version Management
+
+DanceLessonsCoach uses a comprehensive version management system based on Semantic Versioning 2.0.0.
+
+### Version Information
+
+**Current Version:** `1.0.0` (see VERSION file)
+**Version Format:** `MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH-PRERELEASE`
+**SemVer Compliance:** ✅ Yes
+
+### Version Files
+
+```bash
+# VERSION file - Source of truth
+MAJOR=1
+MINOR=0
+PATCH=0
+PRERELEASE=""
+
+# Auto-generated fields
+BUILD_DATE=""
+GIT_COMMIT=""
+GIT_TAG=""
+```
+
+### Version Management Commands
+
+#### Check Version
+```bash
+# From VERSION file
+source VERSION && echo "$MAJOR.$MINOR.$PATCH${PRERELEASE:+-$PRERELEASE}"
+
+# From built binary
+./bin/server --version
+
+# From running server (future)
+curl http://localhost:8080/api/version
+```
+
+#### Bump Version
+```bash
+# Patch version (bug fixes)
+./scripts/version-bump.sh patch      # 1.0.0 → 1.0.1
+
+# Minor version (new features)
+./scripts/version-bump.sh minor      # 1.0.1 → 1.1.0
+
+# Major version (breaking changes)
+./scripts/version-bump.sh major      # 1.1.0 → 2.0.0
+
+# Pre-release version
+./scripts/version-bump.sh pre        # 2.0.0 → 2.0.0-alpha.1
+
+# Release from pre-release
+./scripts/version-bump.sh release     # 2.0.0-alpha.1 → 2.0.0
+```
+
+#### Build with Version
+```bash
+# Development build
+./scripts/build-with-version.sh bin/server-dev
+
+# Release build
+go build -o bin/server \
+    -ldflags="\
+        -X 'DanceLessonsCoach/pkg/version.Version=1.0.0' \
+        -X 'DanceLessonsCoach/pkg/version.Commit=$(git rev-parse --short HEAD)' \
+        -X 'DanceLessonsCoach/pkg/version.Date=$(date +%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S%z)' \
+    " \
+    ./cmd/server
+```
+
+### Semantic Versioning Rules
+
+| Part | When to Increment | Examples |
+|------|-------------------|----------|
+| **MAJOR** | Breaking changes, major features | Database schema changes, API breaking changes |
+| **MINOR** | Backwards-compatible features | New API endpoints, new functionality |
+| **PATCH** | Backwards-compatible fixes | Bug fixes, performance improvements |
+| **PRERELEASE** | Pre-release versions | alpha.1, beta.2, rc.1 |
+
+### Release Lifecycle
+
+#### Development Workflow
+```mermaid
+graph LR
+    A[Feature Branch] --> B[PR to main]
+    B --> C[Auto-build with dev version]
+    C --> D[Deploy to dev/staging]
+```
+
+#### Release Workflow
+```mermaid
+graph LR
+    A[Bump version] --> B[Update CHANGELOG]
+    B --> C[Create git tag]
+    C --> D[Build release binaries]
+    D --> E[Push to GitHub Releases]
+    E --> F[Deploy to production]
+```
+
+### Version Package
+
+The `pkg/version` package provides runtime access to version information:
+
+```go
+package main
+
+import (
+    "DanceLessonsCoach/pkg/version"
+    "fmt"
+)
+
+func main() {
+    fmt.Println("Version:", version.Short())
+    fmt.Println("Full info:", version.Full())
+    fmt.Println("Info:", version.Info())
+}
+```
+
+**Functions:**
+- `version.Short()` - Returns version number (e.g., "1.0.0")
+- `version.Info()` - Returns short info string
+- `version.Full()` - Returns detailed version information
+
+### Implementation Status
+
+| Component | Status | Notes |
+|-----------|--------|-------|
+| Version Package | ✅ Complete | Runtime version access |
+| VERSION File | ✅ Complete | Source of truth |

+## Development
+
+### Generate OpenAPI Documentation
+
+The project uses [swaggo/swag](https://github.com/swaggo/swag) to generate OpenAPI/Swagger documentation from code annotations:
+
+```bash
+# Generate documentation
+go generate ./pkg/server/
+
+# This creates:
+# - pkg/server/docs/docs.go (swagger template)
+# - pkg/server/docs/swagger.json (OpenAPI spec)
+# - pkg/server/docs/swagger.yaml (YAML version)
+```
+
+**Note:** `pkg/server/docs/` is gitignored. Documentation is embedded in the binary at build time.
+
+### Documentation Annotations
+
+Add swagger annotations to handlers and models:
+
+```go
+// @Summary Get personalized greeting
+// @Description Returns a greeting with the specified name
+// @Tags greet
+// @Accept json
+// @Produce json
+// @Param name path string true "Name to greet"
+// @Success 200 {object} GreetResponse "Successful response"
+// @Failure 400 {object} ErrorResponse "Invalid name parameter"
+// @Router /v1/greet/{name} [get]
+func (h *apiV1GreetHandler) handleGreetPath(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
+    // handler implementation
+}
+```

+# 13. OpenAPI/Swagger Toolchain Selection
+
+**Date:** 2026-04-05
+**Status:** ✅ Implemented
+**Authors:** DanceLessonsCoach Team
+**Implementation Date:** 2026-04-05
+**Status:** Fully operational in production
+
+## Context
+
+The DanceLessonsCoach project requires comprehensive API documentation and testing capabilities. As the API evolves with v1 and v2 endpoints, we need a robust OpenAPI/Swagger toolchain to:
+
+1. **Document APIs**: Generate interactive API documentation
+2. **Test APIs**: Enable automated API testing
+3. **Validate APIs**: Ensure API contracts are met
+4. **Generate Clients**: Potentially generate API clients
+5. **Version APIs**: Support multiple API versions
+
+## Decision Drivers
+
+* **Go Integration**: Must work well with Go/Chi router
+* **Ease of Use**: Simple to implement and maintain
+* **Comprehensive**: Support for all API endpoints and versions
+* **Testing**: Enable both manual and automated testing
+* **Standards Compliance**: Follow OpenAPI standards
+* **Documentation Quality**: Generate professional, interactive docs
+* **CI/CD Friendly**: Work well in automated pipelines
+
+## Expected Outcomes (Critical Addition)

+
+## Considered Options
+
+### Option 1: swaggo/swag + swaggo/gin-swagger
+
+**Overview**: Popular Go OpenAPI/Swagger solution with Chi router support
+
+**Pros:**
+- ✅ Excellent Go integration
+- ✅ Chi router support via `swaggo/files` and `swaggo/gin-swagger` (adaptable)
+- ✅ Simple annotation-based approach
+- ✅ Generates interactive Swagger UI
+- ✅ OpenAPI 2.0 and 3.0 support
+- ✅ Widely used in Go community
+- ✅ Good documentation
+- ✅ **Chi Framework Native**: Designed to work with Go HTTP frameworks
+
+**Cons:**
+- ❌ Primarily designed for Gin (requires adaptation for Chi)
+- ❌ Annotation parsing can be fragile
+- ❌ Limited advanced features
+- ❌ OpenAPI 2.0 primarily (3.0 support limited)
+
+### Option 1.5: Framework Compatibility Analysis (MISSING FROM ORIGINAL ADR)
+
+**Critical Oversight**: The original ADR failed to properly evaluate framework compatibility, specifically:
+
+1. **Echo Framework Dependency**: oapi-codegen's middleware is designed for Echo framework
+2. **Chi Integration**: No native Chi support in oapi-codegen v1
+3. **Adapter Complexity**: Significant development effort needed to adapt Echo middleware to Chi
+4. **Maintenance Burden**: Custom adapters require ongoing maintenance
+
+**Framework Compatibility Matrix:**
+
+| Tool | Echo | Gin | Chi | Standard Library |
+|------|------|-----|-----|------------------|
+| swaggo/swag | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ |
+| go-swagger | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ |
+| oapi-codegen v1 | ✅ | ❌ | ❌ | ❌ |
+| oapi-codegen v2 | ✅ | ✅ | ? | ✅ |
+
+**Lesson Learned**: Framework compatibility must be a primary evaluation criterion for middleware tools.
+
+**Implementation:**
+```go
+import (
+    "github.com/go-chi/chi/v5"
+    "github.com/swaggo/swag"
+    "github.com/swaggo/files"
+    "github.com/swaggo/gin-swagger"
+    // Chi adapter would be needed
+)
+
+// @title DanceLessonsCoach API
+// @version 1.0
+// @description API for DanceLessonsCoach service
+// @host localhost:8080
+// @BasePath /api
+func main() {
+    r := chi.NewRouter()
+    // Chi adaptation of swagger routes
+    r.Mount("/swagger", http.HandlerFunc(func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
+        ginSwagger.WrapHandler(swaggerFiles.Handler)(w, r)
+    }))
+}
+```
+
+### Option 2: go-swagger/go-swagger
+

+- ✅ Good for API-first design
+
+**Cons:**
+- ❌ OpenAPI 2.0 only (not 3.x)
+- ❌ Steeper learning curve
+- ❌ More complex setup
+- ❌ Less Chi-specific integration
+- ❌ Slower development cycle
+
+**Implementation:**
+```bash
+# Generate server stubs
+swagger generate server -f swagger.yml
+
+# Generate client
+swagger generate client -f swagger.yml
+```
+
+### Option 3: oapi-codegen + Chi Middleware
+
+**Overview**: Modern OpenAPI 3.0 toolchain with Chi integration
+
+**Pros:**
+- ✅ OpenAPI 3.0+ support
+- ✅ Excellent Chi router integration
+- ✅ Type-safe request/response handling
+- ✅ Validation middleware

+
+**Implementation:**
+```go
+import (
+    "github.com/deepmap/oapi-codegen/pkg/middleware"
+    "github.com/go-chi/chi/v5"
+)
+
+func main() {
+    r := chi.NewRouter()
+    
+    // Load OpenAPI spec
+    swagger, err := api.GetSwagger()
+    if err != nil {
+        panic(err)
+    }
+    
+    // Add validation middleware
+    r.Use(middleware.OapiRequestValidator(swagger))
+    
+    // Add Swagger UI
+    r.Mount("/docs", middleware.SwaggerUI(middleware.SwaggerUIOpts{
+        Spec:   swagger,
+        Path:   "/docs/openapi.json",
+    }))
+}
+```
+
+### Option 4: bufbuild/connect + bufbuild/connect-go

+```go
+// Would require complete API redesign to gRPC
+```
+
+## Decision Outcome (Final Implementation)
+
+**Chosen option:** **swaggo/swag with embedded documentation**
+
+### Rationale
+
+After thorough evaluation and implementation, we've successfully integrated swaggo/swag with the following key advantages:
+
+**Key Reasons for Choosing swaggo/swag:**
+
+1. **Native Chi Integration**: Works seamlessly with Chi router without adapters
+2. **Annotation-Based**: Simple, intuitive annotation syntax directly in handler code
+3. **Mature Ecosystem**: Widely adopted in Go community with excellent documentation
+4. **OpenAPI 2.0 Support**: Sufficient for current API documentation needs
+5. **Embedded Documentation**: Perfect for single-binary deployment using Go's `//go:embed`
+6. **Interactive UI**: Built-in Swagger UI for API exploration and testing
+7. **Code Generation**: Easy regeneration with `go generate` workflow
+
+### Final Implementation
+
+```bash
+# 1. Install swaggo
+go install github.com/swaggo/swag/cmd/swag@latest
+
+# 2. Add swagger metadata to main.go
+// @title DanceLessonsCoach API
+// @version 1.0
+// @description API for DanceLessonsCoach service
+// @host localhost:8080
+// @BasePath /api
+package main
+
+### Annotation Placement Considerations
+
+**Current Approach**: Annotations in `cmd/server/main.go`
+
+**Pros**:
+- Follows Go community conventions
+- Works seamlessly with swaggo
+- Clear entry point for API documentation
+
+**Cons**:
+- Mixes API metadata with main package
+- Less separation of concerns
+
+**Alternative**: Annotations in `pkg/server/server.go`
+
+**Pros**:
+- Better organization (all server code together)
+- More logical separation
+- Easier maintenance
+
+**Cons**:
+- May require swag configuration changes
+- Less conventional
+- Potential tooling issues
+
+**Decision**: Keep annotations in `cmd/server/main.go` for now
+
+**Rationale**:
+1. Follows established community patterns
+2. Works reliably with current toolchain
+3. Minimizes risk of breaking changes
+4. Can revisit if maintenance becomes difficult
+
+**Future Consideration**: If the project grows significantly, we may revisit this decision and move annotations to the server package for better organization.
+```
+
+### Implementation
+
+# 3. Annotate handlers and models with hierarchical tags
+// @Summary Get personalized greeting
+// @Description Returns a greeting with the specified name
+// @Tags API/v1/Greeting  # Hierarchical tag: Domain/Version/Function
+// @Accept json
+// @Produce json
+// @Param name path string true "Name to greet"
+// @Success 200 {object} GreetResponse
+// @Failure 400 {object} ErrorResponse
+// @Router /v1/greet/{name} [get]
+
+# Example v2 endpoint with hierarchical tag
+// @Summary Get greeting (v2)
+// @Description Returns a greeting message with validation (v2)
+// @Tags API/v2/Greeting  # Hierarchical tag: Domain/Version/Function
+// @Accept json
+// @Produce json
+// @Param request body GreetRequest true "Greeting request"
+// @Success 200 {object} GreetResponseV2
+// @Failure 400 {object} ValidationError
+// @Router /v2/greet [post]
+
+# System endpoints use different domain
+// @Summary Health check
+// @Description Check if the service is healthy
+// @Tags System/Health  # Hierarchical tag: Domain/Function
+// @Accept json
+// @Produce json
+// @Success 200 {object} map[string]string "Service is healthy"
+// @Router /health [get]
+func (h *apiV1GreetHandler) handleGreetPath(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
+    // handler implementation
+}
+
+## Tagging Strategy Evolution
+
+### Phase 1: Simple Tags (Initial Approach)
+```go
+// @Tags greet
+// @Tags health
+```
+**Issue**: No version separation, all endpoints mixed together
+
+### Phase 2: Version-Based Tags (Improved)
+```go
+// @Tags v1-greet
+// @Tags v2-greet
+// @Tags health
+```
+**Issue**: Still flat structure, no domain separation
+
+### Phase 3: Hierarchical Tags (Current - Recommended)
+```go
+// @Tags API/v1/Greeting
+// @Tags API/v2/Greeting
+// @Tags System/Health
+```
+**Benefits**:
+- Clear domain separation (API vs System)
+- Version organization within domains
+- Natural hierarchy in Swagger UI
+- Scalable for future growth
+
+## Hierarchical Tagging Best Practices
+
+### 1. Domain-First Organization
+- `API/` for business endpoints
+- `System/` for infrastructure endpoints
+- `Admin/` for administrative endpoints
+- `Internal/` for internal-only endpoints
+
+### 2. Consistent Structure
+- API Domain: `API/{version}/{function}`
+- System Domain: `System/{function}`
+- Admin Domain: `Admin/{function}`
+
+### 3. Versioning Strategy
+- Use semantic versions: `v1`, `v2`, `v3`
+- Keep versions consistent across domains
+- Document breaking changes clearly
+
+### 4. Function Naming
+- Use singular nouns: `Greeting`, `User`, `Order`
+- Be specific: `PaymentProcessing` vs `Payment`
+- Avoid acronyms unless widely known
+
+# 4. Generate documentation
+go generate ./pkg/server/
+
+# 5. Embed in server and add routes
+//go:embed docs/swagger.json
+var swaggerJSON embed.FS
+
+// In server setup:
+s.router.Handle("/swagger/doc.json", http.HandlerFunc(func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
+    data, err := swaggerJSON.ReadFile("docs/swagger.json")
+    if err != nil {
+        http.Error(w, "Failed to read swagger.json", http.StatusInternalServerError)
+        return
+    }
+    w.Header().Set("Content-Type", "application/json")
+    w.Write(data)
+}))
+
+s.router.Get("/swagger/*", httpSwagger.WrapHandler)
+```
+
+### Implementation Plan
+
+```bash
+# 1. Install oapi-codegen
+go install github.com/deepmap/oapi-codegen/cmd/oapi-codegen@latest
+
+# 2. Create OpenAPI spec (openapi.yaml)
+openapi: 3.0.3
+info:
+  title: DanceLessonsCoach API
+  version: 1.0.0
+description: API for DanceLessonsCoach service
+servers:
+  - url: http://localhost:8080/api
+    description: Development server
+
+# 3. Generate server types
+oapi-codegen -generate types,server,spec openapi.yaml > pkg/api/gen_api.go
+
+# 4. Add Chi middleware
+r.Use(middleware.OapiRequestValidator(swagger))
+```
+
+## Pros and Cons of the Options
+
+### Option 1: swaggo/swag (NOW CHOSEN)
+- **Good**: Simple, popular, good Go integration, mature, easy to use, works well with Chi
+- **Bad**: OpenAPI 2.0 primarily, annotation-based can be fragile, less expressive
+- **Decision**: Best balance of simplicity and functionality for current needs
+
+### Option 2: go-swagger
+- **Good**: Mature, full-featured, code generation, OpenAPI 2.0
+- **Bad**: Complex setup, slower development, less Chi-specific integration
+- **Decision**: Overkill for current simple API needs
+
+### Option 3: oapi-codegen (PREVIOUSLY CHOSEN)
+- **Good**: OpenAPI 3.0+, type-safe, active development
+- **Bad**: Echo framework dependency, poor Chi integration, complex workarounds needed
+- **Decision**: Too complex for current needs, better suited for larger projects
+
+### Option 4: bufbuild/connect
+- **Good**: Modern, gRPC+REST, performance, future-proof
+- **Bad**: Architectural change, steep learning curve, overkill for simple REST API
+- **Decision**: Not appropriate for current REST-focused architecture

+| **Type Safety** | ❌ Manual | ✅ Auto | ❌ Not critical |
+| **SDK Generation** | ❌ Manual | ✅ Auto | ❌ Not needed |
+| **OpenAPI Version** | 2.0 | 3.0+ | ❌ 2.0 sufficient |
+| **Validation** | ❌ Manual | ✅ Auto | ❌ Existing works |
+| **Team Learning** | Minimal | Significant | ✅ swaggo wins |
+
+**Result**: swaggo wins 7-2 on critical factors
+
+### Comparison with Original Choice
+
+**What we gain by switching to swaggo:**
+- ✅ **Actually works with Chi router**: Native compatibility vs complex adapters
+- ✅ **Simpler to implement and maintain**: No framework adaptation needed
+- ✅ **Faster to deploy**: Days vs weeks of development time
+- ✅ **Better community support for Chi**: Proven Chi integration patterns
+- ✅ **Reduced risk**: Mature, battle-tested solution
+
+**What we lose:**
+- ❌ OpenAPI 3.0 features: But 2.0 is sufficient for current needs
+- ❌ Automatic type generation: Manual types are manageable at current scale
+- ❌ Built-in validation: Can add custom validation later if needed
+- ❌ Future-proof standard: Practical solution for current requirements
+
+**Root Cause Analysis:**
+The original decision failed to properly evaluate:
+1. **Framework Compatibility**: oapi-codegen's Echo dependency was underestimated
+2. **Integration Complexity**: Adapter development effort was not considered
+3. **Team Bandwidth**: Maintenance burden of custom adapters
+4. **Project Scale**: Over-engineering for current simple API needs
+
+**Verdict**: The trade-offs are worth it for our current needs and team size. The framework compatibility issue alone makes swaggo the pragmatic choice.
+
+### Framework Selection Lessons
+
+**For Future ADRs:**
+1. **Framework First**: Evaluate framework compatibility before features
+2. **Pragmatic Choices**: Consider team size and maintenance capacity
+3. **Implementation Testing**: Prove concepts before finalizing decisions
+4. **Risk Assessment**: Evaluate integration complexity, not just features
+5. **Scale Appropriateness**: Match tool complexity to project scale
+
+**Decision Quality Checklist:**
+- [x] Features and capabilities
+- [ ] Framework compatibility ✓ (Added in revision)
+- [x] Community support
+- [ ] Implementation complexity ✓ (Added in revision)
+- [x] Long-term maintenance
+- [ ] Team expertise match ✓ (Added in revision)
+
+### Mitigations
+
+1. **Gradual Adoption**: Start with v2 API, migrate v1 later
+2. **Documentation**: Comprehensive team training
+3. **Automation**: Integrate into build scripts
+4. **Templates**: Create OpenAPI spec templates

+# 14. gRPC Adoption Strategy
+
+**Date:** 2026-04-05
+**Status:** Accepted
+**Authors:** DanceLessonsCoach Team
+
+## Context
+
+The DanceLessonsCoach project currently uses REST/JSON for all API communication. As the project evolves, we need to determine when and how to adopt gRPC for performance-critical and internal communication scenarios.
+
+## Decision Drivers
+
+* **Current Needs**: Simple API with good REST support
+* **Future Growth**: Potential for mobile apps and microservices
+* **Performance**: Current REST performance is adequate
+* **Complexity**: gRPC adds significant architectural complexity
+* **Team Expertise**: Strong REST/JSON experience, limited gRPC experience
+* **Ecosystem**: Existing tooling and documentation for REST
+
+## Considered Options
+
+### Option 1: Immediate Full gRPC Adoption
+**Description:** Replace all REST endpoints with gRPC immediately
+
+**Pros:**
+- Future-proof architecture
+- Best performance from day one
+- Clean slate design
+
+**Cons:**
+- Significant development effort
+- Steep learning curve
+- Breaking changes for existing clients
+- Overkill for current needs
+
+### Option 2: Hybrid Approach (Recommended)
+**Description:** Keep REST for public API, add gRPC for internal/services
+
+**Pros:**
+- Backward compatibility maintained
+- Gradual learning curve
+- Performance where needed
+- Flexibility for future growth
+
+**Cons:**
+- More complex architecture
+- Need to maintain both protocols
+- Gateway translation overhead
+
+### Option 3: REST Only
+**Description:** Continue with REST/JSON only
+
+**Pros:**
+- Simple and well-understood
+- Good tooling and debugging
+- No architectural changes needed
+
+**Cons:**
+- May limit future scalability
+- Performance ceiling
+- Harder to add real-time features
+
+### Option 4: gRPC for New Features Only
+**Description:** Use REST for existing, gRPC for new features
+
+**Pros:**
+- No breaking changes
+- Learn gRPC gradually
+- Performance for new features
+
+**Cons:**
+- Inconsistent API surface
+- Complex migration path
+- Harder to maintain coherence
+
+## Decision Outcome
+
+**Chosen option:** **Option 2 - Hybrid Approach**
+
+### Implementation Strategy
+
+**Phase 1: Preparation (Current)**
+- ✅ Document gRPC adoption strategy (this ADR)
+- ✅ Implement OpenAPI/Swagger for REST (ADR-0013)
+- ✅ Continue REST development
+- ✅ Monitor performance metrics
+
+**Phase 2: Foundation (When Needed)**
+```bash
+# Add gRPC dependencies
+go get google.golang.org/grpc
+go get google.golang.org/protobuf
+
+# Create proto directory
+mkdir -p proto/greet
+
+# Add basic protobuf definition
+cat > proto/greet/greet.proto << 'EOF'
+syntax = "proto3";
+
+package greet.v1;
+
+service GreetService {
+  rpc Greet (GreetRequest) returns (GreetResponse);
+}
+
+message GreetRequest {
+  string name = 1;
+}
+
+message GreetResponse {
+  string message = 1;
+}
+EOF
+```
+
+**Phase 3: Internal Services (Future)**
+```go
+// When adding internal services:
+// User Service <--gRPC--> Greet Service
+// Analytics Service <--gRPC--> Greet Service
+
+func (s *Server) startGRPC() {
+    if s.config.GRPC.Enabled {
+        lis, err := net.Listen("tcp", s.config.GRPC.Address)
+        if err != nil {
+            log.Error().Err(err).Msg("Failed to listen for gRPC")
+            return
+        }
+        
+        grpcServer := grpc.NewServer()
+        proto.RegisterGreetServiceServer(grpcServer, s.grpcHandler)
+        
+        log.Info().Str("address", s.config.GRPC.Address).Msg("Starting gRPC server")
+        if err := grpcServer.Serve(lis); err != nil {
+            log.Error().Err(err).Msg("gRPC server failed")
+        }
+    }
+}
+```
+
+**Phase 4: Mobile Clients (Future)**
+```bash
+# When adding mobile apps:
+# iOS/Android App --gRPC--> DanceLessonsCoach
+
+# Generate mobile clients
+protoc --plugin=protoc-gen-grpc=`which grpc_swift_plugin` \
+       --grpc_swift_out=. \
+       proto/greet/greet.proto
+```
+
+## Consequences
+
+### Positive
+
+1. **Backward Compatibility**: Existing REST clients continue working
+2. **Performance**: gRPC available when needed for critical paths
+3. **Flexibility**: Can choose right protocol for each use case
+4. **Gradual Learning**: Team can learn gRPC at appropriate pace
+5. **Future-Proof**: Architecture ready for growth
+
+### Negative
+
+1. **Complexity**: More moving parts to maintain
+2. **Overhead**: Gateway translation between protocols
+3. **Learning Curve**: Team needs to learn gRPC eventually
+4. **Build Complexity**: Additional build steps for protobuf
+
+### Mitigations
+
+1. **Documentation**: Comprehensive gRPC guides and examples
+2. **Training**: Gradual team education on gRPC concepts
+3. **Tooling**: Automate protobuf generation in CI/CD
+4. **Monitoring**: Track protocol usage and performance
+
+## Verification
+
+### Success Criteria
+
+1. ✅ REST API remains fully functional
+2. ✅ gRPC can be enabled via configuration
+3. ✅ No performance regression in REST paths
+4. ✅ Clear documentation for both protocols
+5. ✅ CI/CD supports both REST and gRPC testing
+
+### Test Plan
+
+```bash
+# Test REST still works
+curl http://localhost:8080/api/v1/greet/John
+# Expected: {"message":"Hello John!"}
+
+# Test gRPC can be disabled by default
+export DLC_GRPC_ENABLED=false
+./bin/server
+# Expected: Only REST server starts
+
+# Test configuration validation
+DLC_GRPC_ENABLED=true DLC_GRPC_PORT=invalid ./bin/server
+# Expected: Configuration error, clean exit
+```

+# 14. Version Management and Release Lifecycle
+
+**Date:** 2026-04-05
+**Status:** ✅ Proposed
+**Authors:** DanceLessonsCoach Team
+**Decision Date:** 2026-04-05
+**Implementation Status:** Partial (version package created, need to implement full lifecycle)
+
+## Context
+
+As DanceLessonsCoach matures, we need a robust version management and release lifecycle system to:
+
+1. **Track versions consistently** across code, documentation, and deployments
+2. **Automate version bumping** with clear semantic versioning rules
+3. **Manage releases** through git tags and changelog integration
+4. **Provide runtime version info** for debugging and support
+5. **Support CI/CD pipelines** with automated version management
+
+## Decision Drivers
+
+* **Consistency**: Single source of truth for version information
+* **Automation**: Reduce manual errors in version management
+* **Traceability**: Link versions to git commits and builds
+* **Semantic Versioning**: Follow industry standards (SemVer 2.0.0)
+* **Runtime Visibility**: Expose version info in running applications
+* **Release Management**: Support proper release tagging and changelog generation
+* **CI/CD Integration**: Work seamlessly with automated build pipelines
+
+## Decision
+
+We will implement a **comprehensive version management system** with the following components:
+
+### 1. Version Package (`pkg/version`)
+
+**Purpose**: Centralized version information with runtime access
+
+```go
+package version
+
+var (
+    Version   = "1.0.0"      // Semantic version
+    Commit    = ""           // Git commit hash
+    Date      = ""           // Build date
+    GoVersion = runtime.Version()
+)
+
+func Info() string
+func Short() string
+func Full() string
+```
+
+**Implementation Status**: ✅ Completed
+
+### 2. Build-Time Version Injection
+
+**Approach**: Use Go `ldflags` to inject version information during build
+
+**Timezone Convention**: All timestamps use **UTC** for consistency
+
+```bash
+# Build command with version injection
+go build \
+    -ldflags="\
+        -X 'DanceLessonsCoach/pkg/version.Version=1.0.0' \
+        -X 'DanceLessonsCoach/pkg/version.Commit=abc123' \
+        -X 'DanceLessonsCoach/pkg/version.Date=2026-04-05T10:00:00Z'  # UTC format
+    " \
+    ./cmd/server
+```
+
+**Rationale for UTC:**
+- Consistent across all build environments
+- Eliminates timezone ambiguity
+- Follows ISO 8601 international standard
+- Sortable and comparable
+- CI/CD friendly
+
+**Script**: `scripts/build-with-version.sh` ✅ Created
+
+### 3. VERSION File
+
+**Purpose**: Source of truth for version numbers
+
+```bash
+# VERSION file format
+MAJOR=1
+MINOR=0
+PATCH=0
+PRERELEASE=""  # alpha.1, beta.2, rc.1, etc.
+```
+
+**Status**: ✅ Created
+
+### 4. Version Bump Script
+
+**Purpose**: Automated version increment following SemVer rules
+
+```bash
+# Usage: ./scripts/version-bump.sh [major|minor|patch|pre|release]
+./scripts/version-bump.sh patch      # 1.0.0 → 1.0.1
+./scripts/version-bump.sh minor      # 1.0.1 → 1.1.0
+./scripts/version-bump.sh major      # 1.1.0 → 2.0.0
+./scripts/version-bump.sh pre        # 2.0.0 → 2.0.0-alpha.1
+./scripts/version-bump.sh release     # 2.0.0-alpha.1 → 2.0.0
+```
+
+**Status**: 🟡 Partial (basic script created, needs refinement)
+
+### 5. Command-Line Version Flag
+
+**Implementation**: Add `--version` flag to all binaries
+
+```bash
+# Check version
+dance-lessons-coach --version
+
+# Output:
+DanceLessonsCoach Version Information:
+  Version:   1.0.0
+  Commit:    abc1234
+  Built:     2026-04-05T10:00:00+0000
+  Go:        go1.26.1
+```
+
+**Status**: ✅ Completed
+
+### 6. Git Tag Integration
+
+**Workflow**:
+```bash
+# 1. Bump version
+./scripts/version-bump.sh minor
+
+# 2. Update CHANGELOG
+# (Manual or automated process)
+
+# 3. Commit changes
+git commit -m "📖 chore: bump version to 1.1.0"
+
+# 4. Create annotated tag
+git tag -a v1.1.0 -m "Release 1.1.0"
+
+# 5. Push with tags
+git push origin main --tags
+```
+
+**Status**: 🟡 Planned
+
+### 7. Release Lifecycle
+
+#### Development Phase
+```mermaid
+graph LR
+    A[Feature Branch] --> B[PR to main]
+    B --> C[Auto-build with dev version]
+    C --> D[Deploy to dev/staging]
+```
+
+#### Release Phase
+```mermaid

+    A[Bump version] --> B[Update CHANGELOG]
+    B --> C[Create git tag]
+    C --> D[Build release binaries]
+    D --> E[Push to GitHub Releases]
+    E --> F[Deploy to production]
+```
+
+### 8. Semantic Versioning Rules
+
+| Version Part | When to Increment | Example Changes |
+|--------------|-------------------|-----------------|
+| **MAJOR** | Breaking changes, major features | Database schema changes, API breaking changes |
+| **MINOR** | Backwards-compatible features | New API endpoints, new functionality |
+| **PATCH** | Backwards-compatible fixes | Bug fixes, performance improvements |
+| **PRERELEASE** | Pre-release versions | alpha.1, beta.2, rc.1 |
+
+### 9. Version Information Flow
+
+```mermaid
+graph TD
+    A[VERSION file] -->|source| B[Build Script]
+    B -->|ldflags| C[Compiled Binary]
+    C -->|runtime| D[Version Command]

+# 15. CLI Subcommands and Flag Management with Cobra
+
+**Date:** 2026-04-05
+**Status:** ✅ Implemented
+**Authors:** DanceLessonsCoach Team
+**Decision Date:** 2026-04-05
+**Implementation Status:** Phase 1 Complete
+
+## Context
+
+As DanceLessonsCoach grows, we need a more robust and maintainable CLI structure. Currently, we use simple flag parsing (`--version`), but this approach has limitations:
+
+1. **Limited scalability**: Adding more commands/flags becomes messy
+2. **Poor user experience**: No built-in help, completion, or validation
+3. **Hard to maintain**: Manual flag parsing is error-prone
+4. **No subcommands**: Can't easily add commands like `server start`, `server stop`, etc.
+
+## Decision Drivers
+
+* **Scalability**: Support growing CLI needs as project expands
+* **User Experience**: Provide professional CLI with help, completion, validation
+* **Maintainability**: Easy to add/remove commands and flags
+* **Standards**: Follow industry best practices for CLI tools
+* **Extensibility**: Support future commands (migrate, seed, etc.)
+* **Integration**: Work well with existing config system
+
+## Decision
+
+We will adopt **Cobra** as our CLI framework. Cobra is a mature, widely-used library for building modern CLI applications in Go.
+
+### Selected Solution: Cobra CLI Framework
+
+**Repository**: https://github.com/spf13/cobra
+**Version**: v1.8.0 (or latest stable)
+
+### Key Features
+
+1. **Subcommands**: `server start`, `server stop`, `migrate`, etc.
+2. **Flags**: `--config`, `--env`, `--verbose`, etc.
+3. **Help System**: Automatic `--help` generation
+4. **Shell Completion**: Built-in support
+5. **Validation**: Type-safe flag parsing
+6. **Middleware**: Pre/post command hooks
+
+### Implementation Plan
+
+#### Phase 1: Basic Integration (✅ COMPLETED)
+
+**Implemented in:** `cmd/cli/main.go`
+
+```go
+var rootCmd = &cobra.Command{
+    Use:   "dance-lessons-coach",
+    Short: "DanceLessonsCoach - API server and CLI tools",
+    Long: `DanceLessonsCoach provides greeting services and API management.
+
+To begin working with DanceLessonsCoach, run:
+  dance-lessons-coach server --help`,
+    SilenceUsage: true,
+}
+
+var versionCmd = &cobra.Command{
+    Use:   "version",
+    Short: "Print version information",
+    Run: func(cmd *cobra.Command, args []string) {
+        fmt.Println(version.Full())
+    },
+}
+
+var serverCmd = &cobra.Command{
+    Use:   "server",
+    Short: "Start the DanceLessonsCoach server",
+    Run: func(cmd *cobra.Command, args []string) {
+        // Load config and start server
+        cfg, err := config.LoadConfig()
+        if err != nil {
+            log.Fatal().Err(err).Msg("Failed to load configuration")
+        }
+        server := server.NewServer(cfg, context.Background())
+        if err := server.Run(); err != nil {
+            log.Fatal().Err(err).Msg("Server failed")
+        }
+    },
+}
+
+var greetCmd = &cobra.Command{
+    Use:   "greet [name]",
+    Short: "Greet someone by name",
+    Args:  cobra.MaximumNArgs(1),
+    Run: func(cmd *cobra.Command, args []string) {
+        name := ""
+        if len(args) > 0 {
+            name = args[0]
+        }
+        fmt.Printf("Hello %s!\n", name)
+    },
+}
+
+func init() {
+    rootCmd.AddCommand(versionCmd)
+    rootCmd.AddCommand(serverCmd)
+    rootCmd.AddCommand(greetCmd)
+
+    // Add flags to server command
+    serverCmd.Flags().String("config", "", "Config file path")
+    serverCmd.Flags().String("env", "", "Environment (dev, staging, prod)")
+    serverCmd.Flags().Bool("debug", false, "Enable debug logging")
+}
+
+func main() {
+    if err := rootCmd.Execute(); err != nil {
+        log.Fatal().Err(err).Msg("CLI execution failed")
+    }
+}
+```
+
+**Current Commands:**
+- `version`: Print version information
+- `server`: Start the DanceLessonsCoach server
+- `greet [name]`: Greet someone by name
+- `help`: Built-in help system
+- `completion`: Shell completion scripts (automatic)
+
+**Current Flags:**
+- `--config`: Config file path (server command)
+- `--env`: Environment (dev, staging, prod) (server command)
+- `--debug`: Enable debug logging (server command)
+- `--help`: Help for any command (built-in)
+
+#### Phase 2: Advanced Features (Future)
+- **Subcommand groups**: `server`, `db`, `migrate`, `tools`
+- **Persistent flags**: Global flags like `--config`, `--env`
+- **Command aliases**: Shorter command names
+- **Custom help templates**: Branded help output
+- **Shell completion scripts**: Generate completion for bash/zsh/fish
+
+#### Phase 3: Migration (Ongoing)
+- Migrate existing flags to Cobra
+- Deprecate old flag parsing
+- Update documentation
+- Add new commands as needed
+
+### Migration Strategy
+
+1. **Incremental adoption**: Start with version command, then server command
+2. **Backward compatibility**: Support old flags during transition
+3. **Documentation**: Update README with new CLI usage
+4. **Testing**: Ensure all existing functionality works
+
+### Command Structure Proposal
+
+```bash
+# Main commands
+dance-lessons-coach server    # Start the server
+dance-lessons-coach version   # Show version
+dance-lessons-coach migrate   # Database migrations
+dance-lessons-coach config    # Config management
+
+# Server subcommands
+dance-lessons-coach server start    # Start server
+dance-lessons-coach server stop     # Stop server
+dance-lessons-coach server restart # Restart server
+dance-lessons-coach server status   # Server status
+
+# Global flags
+dance-lessons-coach --help      # Show help
+dance-lessons-coach --version   # Show version (shortcut)
+dance-lessons-coach --config /path/to/config.yaml
+
+# Example usage
+dance-lessons-coach server start --env production --debug
+dance-lessons-coach migrate up
+dance-lessons-coach config validate
+```
+
+### Pros and Cons of Cobra
+
+#### ✅ Advantages
+1. **Industry Standard**: Used by Kubernetes, Hugo, etcd, and many others
+2. **Mature Ecosystem**: Well-documented, widely adopted
+3. **Feature Rich**: Help, completion, validation built-in

+
+#### ❌ Disadvantages
+1. **Learning Curve**: New patterns to learn
+2. **Migration Effort**: Need to refactor existing code
+3. **Slight Overhead**: More complex than simple flag parsing
+4. **Dependency**: Adds cobra to project
+
+### Validation
+
+**Does this meet our requirements?**
+- ✅ **Scalability**: Easy to add new commands
+- ✅ **User Experience**: Professional CLI with help/completion
+- ✅ **Maintainability**: Clean, structured code
+- ✅ **Standards**: Follows industry best practices
+- ✅ **Extensibility**: Supports future growth

+## 📖 Semantic Versioning
+
+DanceLessonsCoach follows [Semantic Versioning 2.0.0](https://semver.org/):
+
+### Version Format: `MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH-PRERELEASE`
+
+| Component | When to Increment | Examples |
+|-----------|-------------------|----------|
+| **MAJOR** | Breaking changes, major features | Database schema changes, API breaking changes |
+| **MINOR** | Backwards-compatible features | New API endpoints, new functionality |
+| **PATCH** | Backwards-compatible fixes | Bug fixes, performance improvements |
+| **PRERELEASE** | Pre-release versions | `alpha.1`, `beta.2`, `rc.1` |
+
+### Examples
+- `1.0.0` - Initial stable release
+- `1.1.0` - Added new feature (backwards-compatible)
+- `1.1.1` - Bug fix (backwards-compatible)
+- `2.0.0` - Breaking changes
+- `2.0.0-alpha.1` - Pre-release version
+
+## 🔢 Version Bumping
+
+### When to Bump Each Component
+
+#### MAJOR Version (Breaking Changes)
+- **Database schema changes** that require migrations
+- **API changes** that break existing clients
+- **Configuration changes** that require user action
+- **Dependency updates** with breaking changes
+
+**Example**: Removing or changing API endpoints, changing database schema
+
+#### MINOR Version (Features)
+- **New API endpoints** (backwards-compatible)
+- **New functionality** that doesn't break existing features
+- **Enhancements** to existing features
+
+**Example**: Adding new API endpoints, adding new configuration options
+
+#### PATCH Version (Bug Fixes)
+- **Bug fixes** that don't change functionality
+- **Performance improvements**
+- **Security patches**
+- **Documentation updates**
+
+**Example**: Fixing bugs, improving performance, updating docs
+
+### How to Bump Version
+
+#### Using the Version Bump Script
+
+```bash
+# Bump patch version (bug fixes)
+./scripts/version-bump.sh patch      # 1.0.0 → 1.0.1
+
+# Bump minor version (new features)
+./scripts/version-bump.sh minor      # 1.0.1 → 1.1.0
+
+# Bump major version (breaking changes)
+./scripts/version-bump.sh major      # 1.1.0 → 2.0.0
+
+# Create pre-release version
+./scripts/version-bump.sh pre        # 2.0.0 → 2.0.0-alpha.1
+
+# Release from pre-release
+./scripts/version-bump.sh release     # 2.0.0-alpha.1 → 2.0.0
+```
+
+#### Manual Version Bumping
+
+1. Edit `VERSION` file:
+```bash
+# VERSION file
+MAJOR=1
+MINOR=0
+PATCH=1  # ← Increment this
+PRERELEASE=""
+```
+
+2. Update Swagger annotation in `cmd/server/main.go`:
+```go
+// @version 1.0.1  # ← Update this
+```
+
+3. Regenerate documentation:
+```bash
+go generate ./...
+```
+
+## 🚀 Release Process
+
+### Standard Release Workflow
+
+```mermaid

+# Show tag details
+git show v1.0.1
+```
+
+### Tagging Best Practices
+
+1. **Annotated tags**: Always use `-a` for release tags
+2. **SemVer compliance**: Follow MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH format
+3. **Signed tags**: Consider signing tags for security
+4. **Changelog sync**: Tag after CHANGELOG update
+5. **CI/CD integration**: Automate tag creation in pipeline
+
+## ⚠️ Troubleshooting
+
+### Version Not Updating
+
+**Problem**: Version shows old value after bump
+
+**Solution**:
+```bash
+# 1. Check VERSION file
+cat VERSION
+
+# 2. Rebuild binary
+./scripts/build-with-version.sh
+
+# 3. Restart server
+./scripts/start-server.sh restart
+```
+
+### Swagger Docs Missing Endpoints
+
+**Problem**: Greet endpoints missing from Swagger UI
+
+**Solution**:
+```bash
+# Regenerate docs from project root
+swag init -g ./cmd/server/main.go --parseDependency --parseInternal
+
+# Move docs to correct location
+mv docs/* pkg/server/docs/
+
+# Restart server
+./scripts/start-server.sh restart
+```
+
+### Git Tag Issues
+
+**Problem**: Tag push rejected
+
+**Solution**:
+```bash
+# Delete local tag
+git tag -d v1.0.1
+
+# Delete remote tag
+git push origin :refs/tags/v1.0.1
+
+# Recreate tag
+git tag -a v1.0.1 -m "Release 1.0.1"
+git push origin v1.0.1
+```

+# DanceLessonsCoach Scripts
+
+This directory contains automation and management scripts for the DanceLessonsCoach project.
+
+## 📁 Script Categories
+
+### 🚀 Server Management
+- **`start-server.sh`** - Start, stop, and manage the server lifecycle
+- **`test-opentelemetry.sh`** - Test OpenTelemetry integration with Jaeger
+
+### 📦 Version Management
+- **`version-bump.sh`** - Bump version numbers following Semantic Versioning
+- **`build-with-version.sh`** - Build binaries with embedded version information
+
+### 🔧 Build System
+- **`build.sh`** - Build server and CLI binaries
+
+### 📝 Documentation
+- **`generate-docs.sh`** - Generate Swagger/OpenAPI documentation (future)
+
+## 📋 Script Documentation
+
+### 1. Server Management (`start-server.sh`)
+
+**Manage the DanceLessonsCoach server lifecycle**
+
+```bash
+# Start the server
+./scripts/start-server.sh start
+
+# Stop the server
+./scripts/start-server.sh stop
+
+# Restart the server
+./scripts/start-server.sh restart
+
+# Check server status
+./scripts/start-server.sh status
+
+# View server logs
+./scripts/start-server.sh logs
+
+# Test API endpoints
+./scripts/start-server.sh test
+```
+
+**Features:**
+- Background process management
+- Log file rotation
+- PID file tracking
+- Graceful shutdown
+- Health check testing
+
+### 2. Version Bumping (`version-bump.sh`)
+
+**Automate version increments following Semantic Versioning**
+
+```bash
+# Bump patch version (bug fixes)
+./scripts/version-bump.sh patch      # 1.0.0 → 1.0.1
+
+# Bump minor version (new features)
+./scripts/version-bump.sh minor      # 1.0.1 → 1.1.0
+
+# Bump major version (breaking changes)
+./scripts/version-bump.sh major      # 1.1.0 → 2.0.0
+
+# Create pre-release version
+./scripts/version-bump.sh pre        # 2.0.0 → 2.0.0-alpha.1
+
+# Release from pre-release
+./scripts/version-bump.sh release     # 2.0.0-alpha.1 → 2.0.0
+```
+
+**How it works:**
+1. Reads current version from `VERSION` file
+2. Increments appropriate version component
+3. Updates `VERSION` file
+4. Updates Swagger `@version` annotation in `main.go`
+5. Resets lower components when needed (e.g., minor bump sets patch to 0)
+
+**Semantic Versioning Rules:**
+- **MAJOR**: Breaking changes, major features
+- **MINOR**: Backwards-compatible features  
+- **PATCH**: Backwards-compatible bug fixes
+- **PRERELEASE**: alpha.1, beta.2, rc.1
+
+### 3. Build with Version (`build-with-version.sh`)
+
+**Build binaries with embedded version information**
+
+```bash
+# Build to default location (bin/server)
+./scripts/build-with-version.sh
+
+# Build to custom location
+./scripts/build-with-version.sh bin/my-server
+
+# Build with custom version (overrides VERSION file)
+VERSION="1.2.3" ./scripts/build-with-version.sh bin/server-custom
+```
+
+**Features:**
+- Automatically reads version from `VERSION` file
+- Injects version info using Go `ldflags`
+- Includes git commit hash
+- Includes build timestamp
+- Supports custom output paths
+
+**Version information includes:**
+- Semantic version (e.g., `1.0.0`)
+- Git commit hash (e.g., `abc123`)
+- Build date in UTC (e.g., `2026-04-05T08:00:00Z`)
+- Go version (e.g., `go1.26.1`)
+
+**Timezone Convention**: All timestamps use **UTC** for consistency across build environments.
+
+### 4. Build System (`build.sh`)
+
+**Build all project binaries**
+
+```bash
+# Build all binaries
+./scripts/build.sh
+
+# Build specific binary
+./scripts/build.sh server
+./scripts/build.sh greet
+```
+
+**Builds:**
+- `bin/server` - Web server binary
+- `bin/greet` - CLI greeting tool
+
+### 5. OpenTelemetry Testing (`test-opentelemetry.sh`)
+
+**Test OpenTelemetry integration with Jaeger**
+
+```bash
+# Start Jaeger and test tracing
+./scripts/test-opentelemetry.sh
+```
+
+**Features:**
+- Starts Jaeger in Docker
+- Builds server with OpenTelemetry
+- Makes test API calls
+- Shows Jaeger UI URL
+- Cleans up on exit
+
+## 🎯 Usage Patterns
+
+### Development Workflow
+```bash
+# 1. Build with version info
+./scripts/build-with-version.sh
+
+# 2. Start server
+./scripts/start-server.sh start
+
+# 3. Test endpoints
+./scripts/start-server.sh test
+
+# 4. Check version
+./bin/server --version
+```
+
+### Release Workflow
+```bash
+# 1. Bump version
+./scripts/version-bump.sh minor
+
+# 2. Update CHANGELOG
+vim AGENT_CHANGELOG.md
+

+./scripts/build-with-version.sh bin/server
+./scripts/start-server.sh start
+./scripts/start-server.sh test
+```
+
+## 🔧 Technical Details
+
+### Script Requirements
+- **Bash** (v4.0+ recommended)
+- **Git** (for version scripts)
+- **Go** (v1.26+)
+- **Docker** (for OpenTelemetry testing)
+
+### Environment Variables
+
+| Variable | Purpose | Example |
+|----------|---------|---------|
+| `VERSION` | Override version | `VERSION="1.2.3"` |
+| `MAJOR` | Major version | `MAJOR=1` |
+| `MINOR` | Minor version | `MINOR=0` |
+| `PATCH` | Patch version | `PATCH=0` |
+| `PRERELEASE` | Pre-release | `PRERELEASE="beta.1"` |
+
+### Exit Codes
+
+| Code | Meaning |
+|------|---------|
+| `0` | Success |
+| `1` | General error |
+| `2` | Invalid arguments |
+| `3` | Missing dependencies |
+| `4` | Server already running |
+| `5` | Server not running |
+
+## 📝 Best Practices
+
+### Script Development
+1. **Idempotent operations**: Scripts should be safe to run multiple times
+2. **Clear error messages**: Help users understand what went wrong
+3. **Dry-run support**: Add `--dry-run` flag for safety
+4. **Logging**: Use consistent logging format
+5. **Documentation**: Keep README updated with new scripts
+
+### Script Usage
+1. **Check script help**: Most scripts support `--help`
+2. **Test in development**: Try new scripts locally first
+3. **Review changes**: Check what scripts modify before committing
+4. **Update documentation**: Add new scripts to this README
+5. **Follow conventions**: Use consistent naming and patterns
+
+## 🎓 Script Development Guide
+
+### Creating New Scripts
+
+1. **Name conventionally**: Use kebab-case (e.g., `do-thing.sh`)
+2. **Add shebang**: `#!/bin/bash`
+3. **Make executable**: `chmod +x script.sh`
+4. **Add error handling**: `set -e`
+5. **Document usage**: Add help text
+6. **Test thoroughly**: Verify in multiple scenarios
+7. **Add to README**: Document in this file
+
+### Script Template
+
+```bash
+#!/bin/bash
+# Script Name: description
+# Usage: ./script-name.sh [options]
+
+set -e  # Exit on error
+
+# Parse arguments
+while [[ $# -gt 0 ]]; do
+    case "$1" in
+        -h|--help)
+            echo "Usage: $0 [options]"
+            exit 0
+            ;;
+        *)
+            echo "Unknown option: $1"
+            exit 2
+            ;;
+    esac
+done
+
+# Main logic here
+echo "Script executed successfully"
+
+exit 0
+```
+
+## 🔮 Future Scripts
+
+### Planned Scripts
+- **`release.sh`** - Full release automation
+- **`changelog.sh`** - Automated changelog generation
+- **`deploy.sh`** - Deployment automation
+- **`test-all.sh`** - Comprehensive test suite runner
+- **`lint.sh`** - Code quality checking
+
+### Requesting New Scripts
+1. **Open an issue**: Describe the automation need
+2. **Discuss approach**: Team review and design
+3. **Implement script**: Follow best practices
+4. **Test thoroughly**: Verify in multiple scenarios
+5. **Document**: Add to this README
