What problem does it solve?

The backend startup skill provides a reliable, repeatable method to launch the Budget Buddy FastAPI backend server with automated checks for environment readiness, port availability, and common startup issues.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Guided startup: validates the project context, port status, and base_path configuration to prevent misconfigurations.
  • Safety checks: ensures CORS middleware is present and correctly configured to allow frontend access during development.
  • Verification: performs post-startup checks to confirm the API is reachable at the expected endpoint.

Quick Start

Start the backend from the project root using the recommended startup command and verify the API responds successfully.
