 Flyer Crawler is a web application that uses the Google Gemini AI to extract, analyze, and manage data from grocery store flyers. Users can upload flyer images or PDFs, and the application will automatically identify items, prices, and sale dates, storing the structured data in a PostgreSQL database for historical analysis, price tracking, and personalized deal alerts.
 
-We are working on an app to help people save money, by finding good deals that are only advertized in store flyers/ads.  So, the primary purpose of the site is to make uploading flyers as easy as possible and as accurate as possible, and to store peoples needs, so sales can be matched to needs.

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.
-* Starting a transaction (`BEGIN`).
-* Executing the `callback` function, passing the transactional client to it.
-* 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.
-* In all cases, it will `RELEASE` the client back to the pool.

+   - 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.
 
 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.

 2. **Create a Reusable Validation Middleware**: A generic `validateRequest(schema)` middleware will be created. This middleware will take a `zod` schema, parse the incoming request against it, and handle success and error cases.

+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.

+Review the `src/services/apiClient.test.ts` file. It seems to have a lot of manual data creation for API payloads. Can we refactor it to use factories where appropriate, or create new factories for API payloads if needed?
+
+
+
+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.
