Summary

This PR adds backend system architecture documentation for the SecureShift app-backend.

The document provides a structured overview of:

  • backend system context and major components
  • request and data flow
  • route, middleware, controller, service, model, adapter, and utility responsibilities
  • current vs target backend layering
  • RBAC and access-control considerations
  • data ownership and tenant-scoping risks
  • current API surface and mounted route groups
  • recent backend improvements and architecture impact
  • current gaps, architectural debt, and recommended roadmap

Purpose

The goal is to support backend onboarding, handover, maintainability, and future development planning.

This documentation is intended as a living technical reference for future SecureShift backend contributors. It captures current backend structure, known risks, and recommended next steps, including service-layer consolidation, RBAC cleanup, tenant-aware access control, regression testing, and future analytics readiness.

Notes

This PR is documentation-only and does not change runtime backend behaviour.
