+# TimeTracker Project Rules (v2)
+0. GENERAL
+DONT OVERENGINEER.
+USE IN LINE REPLACEMENTS IF POSSIBLE.
+SOLVE TASKS AS FAST AS POSSIBLE. EACH REQUEST COSTS THE USER MONEY.
+1. ARCHITECTURE
+- Multi-tenancy enforced via company_id in all DB queries
+2. CODING PRACTICES
+- Type safety enforced (Go 1.21+ generics, TypeScript strict mode)
+- Domain types must match across backend (Go) and frontend (TypeScript)
+- All database access through repository interfaces
+- API handlers must use DTOs for input/output
+- Use tygo to generate TypeScript types after modifying Go types
+3. SECURITY
+- JWT authentication required for all API endpoints
+- RBAC implemented in middleware/auth.go
+- Input validation using github.com/go-playground/validator
+- No raw SQL - use GORM query builder
+4. DOCUMENTATION
+- Architecture decisions recorded in docu/ARCHITECTURE.md
+- Type relationships documented in docu/domain_types.md
+5. TESTING
+- 80%+ test coverage for domain logic
+- Integration tests for API endpoints
+- Model tests in backend/cmd/modeltest
+6. FRONTEND
+- Next.js App Router pattern required
+8. DEVELOPMENT WORKFLOW
+- Makefile commands are only available in the backend folder
+- Common make commands:
+  - make generate: Run code generation (tygo, swagger, etc.)
+  - make test: Run all tests
+  - make build: Build the application
+  - make run: Start the development server
+9. CUSTOM RULES
+- Add custom rules to .clinerules if:
+- Unexpected behavior is encountered
+- Specific conditions require warnings
+- New patterns emerge that need documentation
+- DO NOT FIX UNUSED IMPORTS - this is the job of the linter
+10.Implement a REST API update handling in Go using Gin that ensures the following behavior:
+- The update request is received as JSON.
+- If a field is present in the JSON and set to null, the corresponding value in the database should be removed.
+- If a field is missing in the JSON, it should not be modified.
+- If a field is present in the JSON and not null, it should be updated.
+- Use either a struct or a map to handle the JSON data.
+- Ensure the update logic is robust and does not unintentionally remove or overwrite fields.
+- Optional: Handle error cases like invalid JSON and return appropriate HTTP status codes.

+# Refactoring Plan for backend/internal/api/handlers
+
+## Goal
+
+Refactor the code in `backend/internal/api/handlers` to reduce repetition and create helper functions for boilerplate operations, utilizing functions from `backend/internal/api/utils/handler_utils.go` and creating new ones if necessary.
+
+## Analysis
+
+The following common patterns were identified in the handler files:
+
+1.  **Error Handling:** Each handler function repeats the same error handling pattern.
+2.  **DTO Binding:** Parsing the request body and handling potential errors.
+3.  **ID Parsing:** Parsing the ID from the URL and handling potential errors.
+4.  **DTO Conversion:** Converting between DTOs and models.
+5.  **Success Responses:** Calling `responses.SuccessResponse` with the appropriate HTTP status code and data.
+6.  **Not Found Responses:** Checking if a record exists and calling `responses.NotFoundResponse` if it doesn't.
+
+The `Update` handler is the most complex and has the most potential for refactoring.
+
+## Plan
+
+1.  **Implement a generic `HandleUpdate` function in `handler_utils.go`:** This function will encapsulate the common logic for updating entities, including parsing the ID, binding the JSON, converting the DTO to a model, calling the update function, and handling errors and not found cases. The function will also handle nullable fields correctly.
+2.  **Modify the existing handlers to use the new `HandleUpdate` function:** This will involve removing the duplicated code from each handler and calling the generic function instead.
+3.  **Create new helper functions in `handler_utils.go` if needed:** If there are any specific operations that are not covered by the existing utility functions, I will create new ones to handle them.
