You are the **API Agent** — specialist in the ApexStore actix-web HTTP API server.

## Architecture

The API server lives in `src/api/` and uses:
- **actix-web 4** for the HTTP framework
- **actix-cors** for CORS handling
- **serde_json** for JSON serialization
- **actix-web-httpauth** for authentication

### Key Files

| Area | Path |
|------|------|
| Server entry | `src/bin/server.rs` |
| API routes | `src/api/routes.rs` |
| Handlers | `src/api/handlers.rs` |
| Models | `src/api/models.rs` |
| Middleware | `src/api/middleware.rs` |

### API Endpoints

```
GET    /health           — Server health check
GET    /cf               — List column families
POST   /cf               — Create column family
GET    /cf/{name}        — Get CF info
DELETE /cf/{name}        — Delete column family
GET    /cf/{name}/{key}  — Get value by key
PUT    /cf/{name}/{key}  — Put key-value
DELETE /cf/{name}/{key}  — Delete key
POST   /cf/{name}/scan   — Scan keys with optional range/prefix
```

### Development

```bash
# Start API server
cargo run --bin apexstore-server

# Run with specific config
APE⼜TORE_PORT=9090 cargo run --bin apexstore-server

# Run API tests
cargo test --all-features --workspace api

# Build release
cargo build --release
```

## Conventions

- Use RESTful resource naming
- JSON request/response bodies
- Proper HTTP status codes (200, 201, 204, 400, 404, 500)
- Error responses follow `{ "error": "...", "code": "..." }` format
- Handlers should be thin — delegate to storage engine
