⚠️ Potential issue | 🟡 Minor

Clarify the Gemini API key instruction.

The comment mentions both "OpenAI / Gemini model access" and suggests obtaining from "OpenRouter.ai or OpenAI account dashboard," but the configuration is specifically for Gemini. Clarify the source for obtaining the Gemini API key.

Apply this diff to clarify:

gemini:
-  apiKey: "<YOUR_GEMINI_API_KEY>" # API key for OpenAI / Gemini model access  # Obtain from your OpenRouter.ai or OpenAI account dashboard
+  apiKey: "<YOUR_GEMINI_API_KEY>" # API key for Gemini model access  # Obtain from Google AI Studio (https://aistudio.google.com/app/apikey)
📝 Committable suggestion

‼️ IMPORTANT
Carefully review the code before committing. Ensure that it accurately replaces the highlighted code, contains no missing lines, and has no issues with indentation. Thoroughly test & benchmark the code to ensure it meets the requirements.

In backend/config/config.example.yml around lines 7 to 8, the gemini apiKey
comment is confusingly referencing OpenAI/OpenRouter; update the comment to
clearly state this key is for Google's Gemini and should be obtained from the
Google Cloud Console (e.g., enable Vertex AI / Gemini API and create an API key
or service account credential), and remove references to OpenRouter.ai/OpenAI so
users know to get the Gemini key from Google Cloud.

⚠️ Potential issue | 🔴 Critical

🧩 Analysis chain

Verify this structure matches backend/config/config.go expectations.

Ensure that all required configuration fields expected by backend/config/config.go are represented in this example file, and that no additional fields are missing.

🏁 Script executed:

#!/bin/bash
# Description: Check if config.example.yml defines all top-level fields expected by config.go

# Identify all config struct fields parsed in config.go
echo "=== Config fields referenced in config.go ==="
rg -n "cfg\.[A-Z]" backend/config/config.go -o | head -20

# Compare with fields defined in config.example.yml
echo -e "\n=== Top-level fields in config.example.yml ==="
rg "^[a-z]" backend/config/config.example.yml

Length of output: 143

I need to examine config.go's structure directly to understand what fields it expects. Let me inspect the config struct definition.


---

🏁 Script executed:

```shell
#!/bin/bash
# Description: Examine config.go struct definition to identify expected configuration fields

echo "=== Config struct definition in config.go ==="
ast-grep --pattern $'type Config struct {
  $$$
}'

echo -e "\n=== Alternative: Search for struct tags and field names ==="
rg -n "type\s+\w*Config\w*\s+struct" backend/config/config.go -A 30

Length of output: 3422

Add missing configuration sections to config.example.yml

The example file is missing two entire configuration sections defined in backend/config/config.go:

  1. cognito section (required: appClientId, appClientSecret, userPoolId, region)
  2. openai section (required: gptApiKey)

Additionally, the SMTP and JWT structs in config.go lack yaml tags, which may cause unmarshaling issues.
