## 🚧 In Progress

**Task**: Phase 3 - Data Collection Services (READY TO START)
- Status: Phase 2 complete, ready to build MeetingService and RaceService
- Blockers: None
- Next Step: Create MeetingService with database integration

---

## 🎯 Next Steps

1. Create MeetingService for fetching and storing meetings
2. Add database upsert logic to prevent duplicates
3. Write comprehensive tests for MeetingService
4. Create RaceService for fetching and storing race details
5. Implement change detection algorithm
6. Add BullMQ job queue integration

## 🧠 Session Memory

### Recent Decisions Made

**Decision**: Hybrid timezone approach for schedulers
- **Rationale**: Cron expressions use Pacific/Auckland (readable "6 AM"), calculations use UTC (accurate, DST-safe)
- **Alternatives Considered**:
  - Pure local time (rejected - DST bugs, conversion errors)
  - Pure UTC (rejected - unreadable cron expressions)
- **Trade-offs**: None - hybrid gives best of both worlds
- **Impact**: Morning scrape now runs at correct time (6 AM NZ, was 8 AM), eliminates DST transition bugs
- **Files Changed**: 7 scheduler files updated (config, base, 4 implementations, types)

**Decision**: Fixed Pino logger syntax in src/index.ts
- **Rationale**: Pino requires structured logging format: logger.info({ data }, 'message') not logger.info('message', data)
- **Alternatives Considered**: Using console.log (rejected - need structured logs for observability)
- **Trade-offs**: None - this is the correct pattern for Pino

**Decision**: Skip building app container initially, run infrastructure only
- **Rationale**: Faster iteration during development, can run app locally with `npm run dev`
- **Alternatives Considered**: Building full container every time (too slow for TDD)
- **Trade-offs**: App container exists but we'll develop locally for speed

### Patterns Established

- Structured logging with Pino: logger.info({ contextData }, 'message')
- Docker-first for infrastructure (postgres, redis, observability)
- Local development for app code (faster iteration)
- Environment variables loaded from .env via dotenv
- Prisma for database schema and migrations

### Files Modified

- `src/index.ts` - Fixed Pino logging syntax (lines 6-7, 15)
- `WORKING_CONTEXT.md` - Updated with session progress
