# CLAUDE.md  
  
## Project Overview  
Python web API using FastAPI and PostgreSQL.  
  
## Commands  
- python -m venv venv: Create virtual environment  
- source venv/bin/activate: Activate environment  
- pip install -r requirements.txt: Install dependencies  
- uvicorn main:app --reload: Start development server  
- pytest: Run tests  
  
## File Boundaries  
- Safe to edit: /app/, /tests/, /docs/  
- Never touch: /venv/, /__pycache__/, /.pytest_cache/  
  
## Rules  
- Use type hints for all functions  
- Follow PEP 8 style guidelines  
- Add docstrings to all classes and functions  
- Write tests for new endpoints  
  
## Code Examples  
```python  
# Good: Proper typing and documentation  
from typing import List, Optional  
  
def get_users(limit: int = 10, active_only: bool = True) -> List[User]:  
    """Retrieve users from database with optional filtering.  
  
    Args:  
        limit: Maximum number of users to return  
        active_only: Whether to filter for active users only  
  
    Returns:  
        List of User objects  
    """  
    return db.query(User).filter(User.is_active == active_only).limit(limit).all()  
  
# Bad: Missing types and documentation  
def get_users(limit=10, active=True):  
    return db.query(User).filter(User.is_active == active).limit(limit).all()
