📋 Decision Context

Question:

How to handle collateral damage from bulk find-and-replace when renaming an Nx library?

Task: Session 112: Fix backend-api build errors after library rename

🎯 Decision Made

Chosen:

After bulk rename of space-assistant to vitto-hub, backend-api's import paths were broken because the NestJS service file (space-assistant.service.ts) was NOT renamed but its import paths WERE changed. Fix: revert the backend import paths back to the original filename and class name.

Options Considered:

• No alternatives documented

💭 Reasoning

IDE find-and-replace changed ALL occurrences of the string 'space-assistant' to 'vitto-hub', including import paths in backend-api that referenced a local NestJS service file. The actual file on disk (space-assistant.service.ts) was never renamed because it's a backend service unrelated to the Angular library. The class SpaceAssistantService inside it also wasn't renamed. This caused 4 build errors: TS2307 Cannot find module './services/vitto-hub.service'. Fix was to revert the 2 import lines in ai-agents-public.controller.ts and ai-agents.module.ts back to './services/space-assistant.service' and fix the DI type from VittoHubService back to SpaceAssistantService.
