# Task 3: Implement EF Core SaveChangesInterceptor

**Story**: Story 1 - Audit Log Foundation (Phase 1)
**Estimated**: 6 hours

## Description

Implement EF Core SaveChangesInterceptor to automatically capture and log all Create/Update/Delete operations on auditable entities. This is the core mechanism for transparent audit logging.

## Acceptance Criteria

- [ ] AuditLogInterceptor class created
- [ ] Automatic detection of Create/Update/Delete operations
- [ ] Audit log entries created for each operation
- [ ] TenantId and UserId automatically captured
- [ ] Interceptor registered in DI container
- [ ] Performance overhead < 5ms per SaveChanges

## Implementation Details

**Files to Create**:

1. **Interceptor**: `colaflow-api/src/ColaFlow.Infrastructure/Interceptors/AuditLogInterceptor.cs`
```csharp
public class AuditLogInterceptor : SaveChangesInterceptor
{
    private readonly ITenantContext _tenantContext;
    private readonly IHttpContextAccessor _httpContextAccessor;

    public AuditLogInterceptor(ITenantContext tenantContext, IHttpContextAccessor httpContextAccessor)
    {
        _tenantContext = tenantContext;
        _httpContextAccessor = httpContextAccessor;
    }

    public override async ValueTask<InterceptionResult<int>> SavingChangesAsync(
        DbContextEventData eventData,
        InterceptionResult<int> result,
        CancellationToken cancellationToken = default)
    {
        if (eventData.Context is null) return result;

        var auditEntries = CreateAuditEntries(eventData.Context);

        // Add audit logs to context
        foreach (var auditEntry in auditEntries)
        {
            eventData.Context.Add(auditEntry);
        }

        return result;
    }

    private List<AuditLog> CreateAuditEntries(DbContext context)
    {
        var auditLogs = new List<AuditLog>();
        var entries = context.ChangeTracker.Entries()
            .Where(e => e.State == EntityState.Added ||
                        e.State == EntityState.Modified ||
                        e.State == EntityState.Deleted)
            .Where(e => IsAuditable(e.Entity))
            .ToList();

        foreach (var entry in entries)
        {
            var auditLog = new AuditLog
            {
                Id = Guid.NewGuid(),
                TenantId = _tenantContext.TenantId,
                EntityType = entry.Entity.GetType().Name,
                EntityId = GetEntityId(entry),
                Action = entry.State switch
                {
                    EntityState.Added => AuditAction.Create,
                    EntityState.Modified => AuditAction.Update,
                    EntityState.Deleted => AuditAction.Delete,
                    _ => throw new InvalidOperationException()
                },
                UserId = GetCurrentUserId(),
                Timestamp = DateTime.UtcNow,
                OldValues = entry.State == EntityState.Modified ? SerializeOldValues(entry) : null,
                NewValues = entry.State != EntityState.Deleted ? SerializeNewValues(entry) : null
            };

            auditLogs.Add(auditLog);
        }

        return auditLogs;
    }

    private bool IsAuditable(object entity)
    {
        // Check if entity implements IAuditable interface or is in auditable types list
        return entity is Project || entity is Epic || entity is Story || entity is WorkTask;
    }

    private Guid GetEntityId(EntityEntry entry)
    {
        var keyValue = entry.Properties.FirstOrDefault(p => p.Metadata.IsPrimaryKey())?.CurrentValue;
        return keyValue is Guid id ? id : Guid.Empty;
    }

    private Guid? GetCurrentUserId()
    {
        var userIdClaim = _httpContextAccessor.HttpContext?.User?.FindFirst(ClaimTypes.NameIdentifier);
        return userIdClaim != null ? Guid.Parse(userIdClaim.Value) : null;
    }

    private string? SerializeOldValues(EntityEntry entry)
    {
        var oldValues = entry.Properties
            .Where(p => p.IsModified)
            .ToDictionary(p => p.Metadata.Name, p => p.OriginalValue);
        return JsonSerializer.Serialize(oldValues);
    }

    private string? SerializeNewValues(EntityEntry entry)
    {
        var newValues = entry.Properties
            .Where(p => !p.Metadata.IsPrimaryKey())
            .ToDictionary(p => p.Metadata.Name, p => p.CurrentValue);
        return JsonSerializer.Serialize(newValues);
    }
}
```

2. **DI Registration**: Update `colaflow-api/src/ColaFlow.Infrastructure/DependencyInjection.cs`
```csharp
services.AddDbContext<ColaFlowDbContext>((serviceProvider, options) =>
{
    options.UseNpgsql(connectionString);
    options.AddInterceptors(serviceProvider.GetRequiredService<AuditLogInterceptor>());
});

services.AddScoped<AuditLogInterceptor>();
```

## Technical Notes

- Phase 1 captures basic Create/Update/Delete operations
- Changed Fields tracking (old vs new values diff) will be enhanced in Phase 2
- Performance optimization: Consider async operations and batching
- Use System.Text.Json for serialization (faster than Newtonsoft.Json)

## Testing

- Unit tests for interceptor logic
- Integration tests for automatic audit logging
- Performance benchmark: < 5ms overhead
- Verify TenantId and UserId are captured correctly
