Terminal Jarvis Remote API Framework

STATUS: FUTURE-USE MODULE - Represents “positive technical debt”

This module implements a comprehensive API framework designed for future remote service integration. Currently marked with #[allow(dead_code)] as it represents a forward investment in the Terminal Jarvis architecture.

§PLANNED IMPLEMENTATION ROADMAP

§Phase 1 (v1.0.0): Local API Server

  • REST API for local Terminal Jarvis management
  • Tool status monitoring and control endpoints
  • Configuration management via HTTP
  • Authentication state tracking and management
  • WebSocket support for real-time updates

§Phase 2 (v1.1.0): Remote Service Integration

  • Connection to Terminal Jarvis cloud services
  • Centralized tool management across devices
  • Shared configuration synchronization
  • Remote tool execution capabilities
  • Cross-device session management

§Phase 3 (v1.2.0): Advanced Platform Features

  • Multi-user environments and permissions
  • Enterprise deployment support
  • Custom plugin marketplace integration
  • Advanced analytics and monitoring dashboard
  • Workflow automation and scripting API

§CURRENT IMPLEMENTATION

The framework provides three core components:

  • ApiBase: Base configuration with timeout and retry logic
  • ApiClient: HTTP client abstraction with error handling
  • ToolApi: Tool-specific operations framework

§ARCHITECTURE JUSTIFICATION

This forward-looking design ensures Terminal Jarvis can evolve into a comprehensive platform without breaking changes. The modular structure allows incremental implementation while maintaining backward compatibility.

The API framework follows these principles:

  • Extensibility: Easy to add new endpoints and operations
  • Reliability: Built-in retry logic and error handling
  • Performance: Async-first design with connection pooling
  • Security: Authentication and authorization ready

§DEPENDENCIES

  • reqwest: HTTP client with async support
  • serde_json: JSON serialization for API payloads
  • anyhow: Unified error handling

§MAINTENANCE NOTES

  • Keep #[allow(dead_code)] annotations until Phase 1 implementation begins
  • Update this documentation as implementation progresses
  • Preserve API contracts to ensure future compatibility
  • Consider API versioning strategy before Phase 1 implementation
