+#### M1 EF Core Navigation Property Warnings Fix - COMPLETE ✅
+
+**Task Completed**: 2025-11-03 14:00
+**Responsible**: Backend Agent
+**Issue Severity**: Warning (not blocking, but improper configuration)
+
+**Problem Root Cause**:
+- EF Core was creating shadow properties (ProjectId1, EpicId1, StoryId1) for foreign keys
+- Value objects (ProjectId, EpicId, StoryId) were incorrectly configured as foreign keys
+- Navigation properties referenced private backing fields instead of public properties
+- Led to SQL queries using incorrect column names and redundant columns
+
+**Warning Messages Resolved**:
+```
+Entity type 'Epic' has property 'ProjectId1' created by EF Core as shadow property
+Entity type 'Story' has property 'EpicId1' created by EF Core as shadow property
+Entity type 'WorkTask' has property 'StoryId1' created by EF Core as shadow property
+```
+
+**Solution Implemented**:
+- Changed foreign key configuration to use string column names instead of property expressions
+- Updated navigation property references from "_epics" to "Epics" (use property names, not field names)
+- Applied fix to all entity configurations: ProjectConfiguration, EpicConfiguration, StoryConfiguration, WorkTaskConfiguration
+
+**Configuration Changes Example**:
+```csharp
+// BEFORE (Incorrect - causes shadow properties):
+.HasMany(p => p.Epics)
+    .WithOne()
+    .HasForeignKey(e => e.EpicId)  // ❌ Tries to use value object as FK
+    .HasPrincipalKey(p => p.Id);
+
+// AFTER (Correct - uses string reference):
+.HasMany("Epics")  // ✅ Use property name string
+    .WithOne()
+    .HasForeignKey("ProjectId")  // ✅ Use column name string
+    .HasPrincipalKey("Id");
+```
+
+**Database Migration**:
+- [x] Deleted old migration: 20251102220422_InitialCreate
+- [x] Created new migration: 20251103000604_FixValueObjectForeignKeys
+- [x] Applied migration successfully to PostgreSQL database

+#### M1 Exception Handling Refactoring - COMPLETE ✅
+
+**Migration to IExceptionHandler Standard**:
+- [x] Deleted GlobalExceptionHandlerMiddleware.cs (legacy custom middleware)
+- [x] Created GlobalExceptionHandler.cs using .NET 8+ IExceptionHandler interface
+- [x] Complies with RFC 7807 ProblemDetails standard
+- [x] Handles 4 exception types:
+  - ValidationException → 400 Bad Request
+  - DomainException → 400 Bad Request
+  - NotFoundException → 404 Not Found
+  - Other exceptions → 500 Internal Server Error
+- [x] Includes traceId for log correlation
+- [x] **Testing**: ValidationException now returns 400 (not 500) ✅
+- [x] Updated Program.cs registration: `builder.Services.AddExceptionHandler<GlobalExceptionHandler>()`
+
+**Files Modified**:

 ### Architecture Decisions

+- **2025-11-03**: **EF Core Value Object Foreign Key Configuration** (CONFIRMED)
+  - **Decision**: Use string-based foreign key configuration for value object IDs
+  - **Rationale**: Avoid shadow properties, cleaner SQL queries, proper DDD value object handling
+  - **Implementation**: Changed from `.HasForeignKey(e => e.EpicId)` to `.HasForeignKey("ProjectId")`
+  - **Impact**: Eliminated EF Core warnings, improved query performance, better alignment with DDD principles
+
+- **2025-11-03**: **Kanban Board API Design** (CONFIRMED)
+  - **Decision**: Dedicated UpdateTaskStatus endpoint for drag & drop operations
+  - **Endpoint**: PUT /api/v1/tasks/{id}/status
+  - **Rationale**: Separate status updates from general task updates, optimized for UI interactions
+  - **Impact**: Simplified frontend drag & drop logic, better separation of concerns
+
+- **2025-11-03**: **Frontend Drag & Drop Library Selection** (CONFIRMED)
+  - **Decision**: Use @dnd-kit (core + sortable) for Kanban board drag & drop
+  - **Rationale**: Modern, accessible, performant, TypeScript support, better than react-beautiful-dnd
+  - **Alternative Considered**: react-beautiful-dnd (no longer maintained)
+  - **Impact**: Smooth drag & drop UX, accessibility compliant, future-proof
+
+- **2025-11-03**: **API Endpoint Design Pattern** (CONFIRMED)
+  - **Decision**: RESTful nested resources for hierarchical entities
+  - **Pattern**:
+    - `/api/v1/projects/{projectId}/epics` - Create epic under project
+    - `/api/v1/epics/{epicId}/stories` - Create story under epic
+    - `/api/v1/stories/{storyId}/tasks` - Create task under story
+  - **Rationale**: Clear hierarchy, intuitive API, follows REST best practices
+  - **Impact**: Consistent API design, easy to understand and use
+
+- **2025-11-03**: **Exception Handling Standardization** (CONFIRMED)
+  - **Decision**: Adopt .NET 8+ standard `IExceptionHandler` interface
+  - **Rationale**: Follow Microsoft best practices, RFC 7807 compliance, better testability
+  - **Deprecation**: Custom middleware approach (GlobalExceptionHandlerMiddleware)
+  - **Implementation**: GlobalExceptionHandler with ProblemDetails standard
+  - **Impact**: Improved error responses, proper HTTP status codes (ValidationException → 400)
+
+- **2025-11-03**: **Package Version Strategy** (CONFIRMED)
+  - **Decision**: Upgrade to MediatR 13.1.0 + AutoMapper 15.1.0 (commercial versions)
+  - **Rationale**: Access to latest features, commercial support, license compliance
+  - **License**: LuckyPennySoftware commercial license (valid until November 2026)
+  - **Configuration**: License keys stored in appsettings.Development.json
+  - **Impact**: No more deprecation warnings, improved API compatibility
+
+- **2025-11-02**: **Frontend Technology Stack Confirmation** (CONFIRMED)
+  - **Decision**: Next.js 16 + React 19 (latest stable versions)
+  - **Server State**: TanStack Query v5 (data fetching, caching, synchronization)
+  - **Client State**: Zustand (UI state management)
+  - **UI Components**: shadcn/ui (accessible, customizable components)
+  - **Forms**: React Hook Form + Zod (type-safe validation)
+  - **Rationale**: Latest stable versions, excellent developer experience, strong TypeScript support
+
 - **2025-11-02**: **Naming Convention Standards** (CONFIRMED)
  - **Decision**: Keep "Infrastructure" naming (not "InfrastructureDataLayer")
  - **Rationale**: Follows industry standard (70% of projects use "Infrastructure")
