# BRIEFING — 2026-06-28T21:20:34-04:00

## Mission
Analyze the codebase and formulate a precise implementation strategy for adding image fields to Menu and MenuItem Prisma schema, shared types, backend routes, and MCP server tools.

## 🔒 My Identity
- Archetype: Explorer 2 (Backend & DB Specialist)
- Roles: Read-only investigator
- Working directory: /home/ti/git/homaroma/.agents/explorer_m2_2
- Original parent: 8e727cf6-d863-41ec-9bd2-f8dead86db2a
- Milestone: Milestone 2: Backend & DB

## 🔒 Key Constraints
- Read-only investigation — do NOT implement
- Follow AGENTS.md guidelines (do not guess field names, API contracts, routes, schema, etc.)

## Investigation State
- **Explored paths**:
  - `apps/backend/prisma/schema.prisma`
  - `packages/types/index.ts`
  - `apps/backend/src/routes/menus.ts`
  - `apps/mcp-server/menu-tools.ts`
  - `apps/mcp-server/menu-toolkit.ts`
  - `apps/spa/src/store/menuStore.ts`
  - `apps/website/src/components/navigation/menuTypes.ts`
- **Key findings**:
  - Found precise code blocks and line numbers for models/schemas.
  - Formulated full diff and migration scripts.
  - Checked integration of new properties in the MCP Server tools.
- **Unexplored areas**: None.

## Key Decisions Made
- Focused on minimal, backwards-compatible schema modifications using nullable (`String?` / optional) fields to ensure no disruption to existing data.
