• Implemented token management techniques for quota enforcement and user-specific tracking.
• Refactored code to enhance monetization capabilities, including usage logging and token quota enforcement.
• Patched PlanManager for cost management in Mind Map and embedding processes.
• Analyzed the project’s functional architecture to identify monetization logic points.
• Planned and implemented a minimally disruptive paywall system in both frontend and backend.
• Developed and tested a minimal working version of a /[[api]]/user/me endpoint for user management.
• Reviewed frontend patches for compatibility with backend systems.
• Provided local testing guides for UI-level paywall implementation and resolved Python package installation issues.

Achievements

• Successfully implemented a paywall system with backend and frontend components.
• Enhanced the DocumentService with robust monetization controls and user-specific tracking.
• Improved system architecture for better cost management and token accounting.

Pending Tasks
