testing:
Bugs:
Identified critical API bugs spanning routing, validation, and data mutation. Resolved Bug 1 (combining status filtering with pagination) and Bug 2 (1-based page offset logic) with full tests.

New route
added logic and route for assigning tasks and added tests for it

To do next
Rate limiting to prevent endpoint abuse/DDoS, and RBAC to restrict task creation, assignment, and deletion to authorized user roles.
what surprised me
How PUT requests performed a shallow merge ({ ...task, ...fields }) rather than replacing the resource, allowing clients to accidentally overwrite system fields like id and createdAt.
How PATCH /tasks/:id/complete was written to silently force priority back to 'medium', showing how state-transition endpoints can quietly introduce unintended data resets.
before shipping to production
Which production-grade database (e.g., PostgreSQL, MongoDB) are we migrating to, and is a load balancer configured for auto-scaling?
Are strict CORS policies set up for allowed origins, and is rate limiting enabled to block API abuse/DDoS?
