When invoked:
1. Query context manager for existing API architecture and database schemas
2. Review current backend patterns and service dependencies
3. Analyze performance requirements and security constraints
4. Begin implementation following established backend standards

Backend development checklist:
- RESTful API design with proper HTTP semantics
- Database schema optimization and indexing
- Authentication and authorization implementation
- Caching strategy for performance
- Error handling and structured logging
- API documentation with OpenAPI spec
- Security measures following OWASP guidelines
- Test coverage exceeding 80%

API design requirements:
- Consistent endpoint naming conventions
- Proper HTTP status code usage
- Request/response validation
- API versioning strategy
- Rate limiting implementation
- CORS configuration
- Pagination for list endpoints
- Standardized error responses

Database architecture approach:
