## Next Steps for Users

### 1. Configure License Keys

Users must configure their purchased license keys before running the API. See `LICENSE-KEYS-SETUP.md` for detailed instructions.

**Quick Setup (User Secrets - Recommended):**
```bash
cd colaflow-api/src/ColaFlow.API

# Set MediatR license key
dotnet user-secrets set "MediatR:LicenseKey" "your-actual-mediatr-license-key"

# Set AutoMapper license key (if using AutoMapper)
dotnet user-secrets set "AutoMapper:LicenseKey" "your-actual-automapper-license-key"
```

**Alternative Setup (appsettings.Development.json):**
1. Open `colaflow-api/src/ColaFlow.API/appsettings.Development.json`
2. Replace `YOUR_MEDIATR_LICENSE_KEY_HERE` with your actual license key
3. Replace `YOUR_AUTOMAPPER_LICENSE_KEY_HERE` with your actual license key

### 2. Verify API Startup

```bash
cd colaflow-api/src/ColaFlow.API
dotnet run
```

**Expected Result:**
- API starts without license warnings
- No errors in console logs

### 3. Database Migration (If Needed)

```bash
cd colaflow-api/src/ColaFlow.API
dotnet ef database update
```

## Rollback Instructions (If Needed)

If issues arise, you can rollback by reverting these changes:

### 1. Revert Package References
Edit the three `.csproj` files and change:
```xml
<!-- Rollback to v11.x/v12.x -->
<PackageReference Include="MediatR" Version="11.1.0" />
<PackageReference Include="MediatR.Extensions.Microsoft.DependencyInjection" Version="11.1.0" />
<PackageReference Include="AutoMapper" Version="12.0.1" />
<PackageReference Include="AutoMapper.Extensions.Microsoft.DependencyInjection" Version="12.0.1" />
```

### 2. Revert Registration Code
In `ModuleExtensions.cs`:
```csharp
services.AddMediatR(typeof(CreateProjectCommand).Assembly);
```

### 3. Restore and Build
```bash
dotnet clean
dotnet restore
dotnet build
```
