For example, a service function that needs to update a user's points and create a budget in a single transaction cannot easily do so if both underlying repository methods create their own transactions.
 
 ## Decision
 
 We will implement a standardized "Unit of Work" pattern through a high-level `withTransaction` helper function. This function will abstract away the complexity of transaction management.
 
 1. **`withTransaction` Helper**: A new helper function, `withTransaction<T>(callback: (client: PoolClient) => Promise<T>): Promise<T>`, will be created. This function will be responsible for:
-
+   - Acquiring a client from the database pool.
-* Acquiring a client from the database pool.
+   - Starting a transaction (`BEGIN`).
-* Starting a transaction (`BEGIN`).
+   - Executing the `callback` function, passing the transactional client to it.
-* Executing the `callback` function, passing the transactional client to it.
+   - If the callback succeeds, it will `COMMIT` the transaction.
-* If the callback succeeds, it will `COMMIT` the transaction.
+   - If the callback throws an error, it will `ROLLBACK` the transaction and re-throw the error.
-* If the callback throws an error, it will `ROLLBACK` the transaction and re-throw the error.
+   - In all cases, it will `RELEASE` the client back to the pool.
-* In all cases, it will `RELEASE` the client back to the pool.
 
 2. **Repository Method Signature**: Repository methods that need to be part of a transaction will be updated to optionally accept a `PoolClient` in their constructor or as a method parameter. By default, they will use the global pool. When called from within a `withTransaction` block, they will be passed the transactional client.
 3. **Service Layer Orchestration**: Service-layer functions that orchestrate multi-step operations will use `withTransaction` to ensure atomicity. They will instantiate or call repository methods, providing them with the transactional client from the callback.

+RULES:
+1) if you do not have a file that you need, stop, and request it immediately.
+2) never remove logging or comments
+3) you cannot ever use 'any' or 'unknown' to solve possible typescript issues
+4) when creating new files, output there entire path in your explanation, to make it easier to know where to save those new files and directories to
+5) add comments when you can, as that will help ensure ideas persist into the app
+6) Your knowledge of package version, like nodejs, is always old, like a year or more old - ask me for the best version to use, as your knowledge is incomplete
+7) Stop making predictions and/or guessing at solutions.  Focus on adding logging and debugging to issues that are not solved right away.
+8) Do not make obsequious statements - we're here to do a job, not get patted on the shoulder for insignificant achievements.
+9) Provide me with the npm command to execute rather than wanting to edit the package.json file. That is not the correct way to handle a package update.
+10) Provide the code solution in DIFF format for brevity.
+11) Always add logging and debugging to prove a solution works, and only remove logging and debugging when it is not possible to adapt it to the new conditions.

+
+The `useApi` hook has complex state management. Can you suggest a way to simplify it, perhaps by using a reducer or a state machine?
+
+
+
+
+
+Are there any opportunities to improve the mock factories themselves, for example, by adding more realistic default data?

+
+NO CODE just outline the steps
+
+
+Gemini
+Outlining the Implementation Path
+Gemini 2.5 generated this response due to high traffic on Gemini 3
+
+Of course! Here is a step-by-step outline of how to add a new "Recipes Created" statistic to your AdminStatsPage.
+
+Backend Steps
+
+
+Update Database Query:
+
+In the database repository file responsible for fetching admin statistics (e.g., admin.db.ts), you'll need to add a query that performs a COUNT(*) on your recipes table.
+
+
+Update Service Layer:
+
+The service function that aggregates the statistics (which is called by your API controller) needs to be modified to execute the new recipe count query.
+The result of this query should be added to the statistics object that is returned.
+
+
+Update API Endpoint:
+
+The controller for the /api/admin/stats endpoint must be updated to include the new recipeCount field in the JSON object it sends to the frontend.
+Frontend Steps
+
+
+Update AppStats Type:
+
+In src/services/apiClient.ts, where the AppStats type is defined, add the new property: recipeCount: number;.
+Update Mock Factory:
+
+In src/tests/utils/mockFactories.ts, modify the createMockAppStats function. Add recipeCount to the defaultStats object with a default value (e.g., recipeCount: 500). This ensures any test that uses the factory will not break due to the missing property.
+
+
+
+
+
+Update AdminStatsPage Component (AdminStatsPage.tsx):
+
+Import a suitable icon for recipes, like BookOpenIcon, at the top of the file.
+Inside the main div where the other StatCard components are rendered, add a new one for the recipe count:
+jsx
+<StatCard title="Total Recipes" value={stats.recipeCount.toLocaleString()} icon={<BookOpenIcon className="w-6 h-6" />} />
+Update AdminStatsPage Tests (AdminStatsPage.test.tsx):
+
+In the test 'should display stats cards when data is fetched successfully', update the mockStats object to include a value for recipeCount. Add a new expect assertion to verify that the "Total Recipes" title and its corresponding value are rendered.
+In the test 'should format large numbers with commas for readability', add a large number for recipeCount in the mock data and assert that it is rendered with commas.
+In the test 'should correctly display zero values for all stats', add recipeCount: 0 to the mock data and increase the expected count of "0" elements found in the document from 5 to 6.
