+## HTTP contract
+
+- Every response carries an `x-request-id` header (propagated from a safe incoming
+  `x-request-id`, or a fresh UUID). Every JSON log line for a request carries the same id.
+- Errors always use one envelope:
+  `{ "error": { "statusCode", "code", "message", "details?" }, "requestId" }`
+  Codes: `NOT_FOUND`, `VALIDATION_ERROR`, `BAD_REQUEST`/Fastify 4xx codes, `INTERNAL_ERROR`.
+  5xx messages are always generic; stack traces stay in server logs only.
+- Input validation is explicit per route: `parseJson(schema, body)` (zod) in the handler.
+- Log level via `LOG_LEVEL` env var (default `info`); logs are JSON only.

+# DESIGN — F-003 HTTP foundation and request context
+
+## Architecture
+All cross-cutting HTTP behavior lives in explicit, readable code:
+
+- `src/infrastructure/logging/logger.ts` — pino factory. JSON only, level from
+  `LOG_LEVEL` (default `info`), base field `service`. Accepts an optional writable
+  destination so tests can capture output without transports (no magic).
+- `src/shared/errors.ts` — `AppError` class (statusCode, code, message) and the
+  single `errorEnvelope(statusCode, code, message, requestId)` builder. Envelope v2:
+  `{ error: { statusCode, code, message }, requestId }`.
+- `src/shared/http-input.ts` — `parseJson(schema, input)` using zod. On failure
+  throws `AppError(400, VALIDATION_ERROR)` carrying field-level issues (field paths
+  only, never internal state).
+- `src/app/build-app.ts` — composition root wires everything explicitly:
+  - Fastify `genReqId`: trust incoming `x-request-id` only if it matches
+    `^[A-Za-z0-9._-]{1,128}$`; otherwise generate `crypto.randomUUID()`.
+  - `onRequest` hook: set `x-request-id` response header, start timer.
+  - `onResponse` hook: one JSON log line per request
+    `{ requestId, method, url, statusCode, durationMs }`.
+  - `setErrorHandler`: map `AppError` and Fastify errors to the envelope. 4xx expose
+    their message; >=500 always returns generic `Internal Server Error`. Errors are
+    logged with stack server-side, tagged with requestId.
+  - `setNotFoundHandler`: envelope with code `NOT_FOUND` + requestId.
+- `src/infrastructure/http/server.ts` — startup log lines through the logger.
+
+## Request id policy
+- Propagation is opt-in and sanitized; anything suspicious is replaced by a fresh UUID.
+- Response header name: `x-request-id`.
+
+## Validation policy
+- Validation is explicit per route: call `parseJson(schema, body)` inside the handler.
+- No schema decorators, no magic body binding. The F-003 deliverable is the hook
+  (helper + envelope integration), exercised by composition tests with a test-only
+  route registered on the built app.
+
+## Backward compatibility
+- `GET /health` response body unchanged; envelope gains fields (additive).
+
+## Files
+| File | Role |
+|---|---|
+| src/infrastructure/logging/logger.ts | pino factory |
+| src/shared/errors.ts | AppError + envelope v2 |
+| src/shared/http-input.ts | zod parse helper |
+| src/app/build-app.ts | hooks, genReqId, handlers |
+| src/infrastructure/http/server.ts | startup logging |
+| src/app/tests/http-foundation.test.ts | composition tests (request id, logs, envelope, no leak) |
+| src/shared/tests/http-input.test.ts | helper unit tests |
+
+## Risks / mitigations
+- Double logging (fastify internal + hooks): keep `logger: false` on Fastify, log only via explicit hooks.
+- Header injection through propagated id: strict regex + length cap.
+- 5xx leaking internals: handler returns fixed generic message for anything >=500; tests assert absence of thrown message/stack.

+# SPEC — F-003 HTTP foundation and request context
+
+## Problem
+Every request needs identity, structured logs and predictable errors. Today the app
+answers with ad-hoc console logging potential, no request correlation id, and an
+error envelope without request context.
+
+## Goal
+request_id everywhere, JSON logs, one error envelope, no magic.
+
+## Scope IN
+- request_id generated or propagated on every request
+- Structured JSON logging with request_id
+- Single error response envelope (v2: adds stable `code` + `requestId`)
+- Input validation hook on API layer (foundation helper, explicit usage)
+
+## Scope OUT
+- No tracing backend
+- No metrics backend
+- No production endpoints that consume validation yet (first consumer: F-005 identity)
+
+## Acceptance criteria
+1. Every response carries `request_id` (via `x-request-id` response header; error bodies also embed it).
+2. Every log line for a request carries the same request_id.
+3. Given an invalid request When handled Then the error envelope shape is stable.
+4. Internal stack traces never leak to API responses (5xx message is generic; stack stays server-side in logs).
+5. `./scripts/verify.sh` green.
+
+## Non-functional
+- JSON-only logs (no pretty printers in runtime).
+- Incoming `x-request-id` must be sanitized before reuse (length/charset limits).
+- No new framework magic: logging hooks and error handler are explicit code in the composition root.
+
+## Dependencies added
+- pino (JSON structured logging; Fastify ecosystem standard)
+- zod (explicit input validation; no decorators/annotations magic)
+Justification goes to `spec/tech.md`.

+# TESTS — F-003 HTTP foundation and request context
+
+## Unit — src/shared/tests/http-input.test.ts
+1. parseJson returns parsed value for valid input
+2. parseJson throws AppError 400 VALIDATION_ERROR with field issues for invalid input
+3. parseJson rejects non-object input when schema expects object
+
+## Composition — src/app/tests/http-foundation.test.ts
+(app built with logger writing to an in-memory stream)
+
+1. GET /health responds 200 with x-request-id header (UUID shape)
+2. Valid incoming x-request-id is propagated: same value in response header and in the request log line
+3. Malicious x-request-id (bad charset / >128 chars) is replaced by generated UUID; log line carries the generated id
+4. Unknown route -> 404 envelope { error: { statusCode: 404, code: NOT_FOUND, message }, requestId } + x-request-id header
+5. Invalid JSON body on test route -> 400, envelope shape stable, requestId present
+6. Schema-invalid body on test route -> 400 code VALIDATION_ERROR, issues mention field path only
+7. Handler throwing Error('secret internal detail') -> 500 generic message, response body contains neither the message nor a stack; error log line contains requestId and stack
+8. Every request produces exactly one 'request completed' log line carrying the requestId
+
+## Manual / QA
+- verify.sh green; live curl shows x-request-id header and JSON envelope on unknown route.

+## Key decisions
+1. **pino** for JSON structured logging: Fastify ecosystem standard, fast, boring. Fastify's own logger stays OFF (`logger: false`); logging happens through explicit onRequest/onResponse hooks so there is exactly one log line per request and zero hidden log paths.
+2. **zod** for the input validation hook: explicit `parseJson(schema, body)` calls inside handlers. No decorators, no magic binding. F-003 ships the hook; first real consumer is F-005 identity.
+3. **request_id policy**: propagate incoming `x-request-id` only when it matches `^[A-Za-z0-9._-]{1,128}$` (header-injection defense); otherwise `crypto.randomUUID()`. Response header `x-request-id` on every response; error envelopes also embed requestId.
+4. **Error envelope v2** (additive): `{ error: { statusCode, code, message }, requestId }`. Codes: NOT_FOUND, VALIDATION_ERROR, INTERNAL_ERROR, or upstream Fastify error codes for known 4xx. >=500 always answers the generic `Internal Server Error`; stack goes to logs tagged with requestId, never to the client.
+5. **Logger injection**: `buildApp({ logger? })` — tests capture logs through an in-memory destination. No transports, no env sniffing in tests.
+
+## Boundaries
+- Cross-cutting code lives in `shared` and `infrastructure/logging`; composition wiring only in `src/app`. Modules (health) untouched.
+
+## Open risks
+- Envelope change touches F-001 test expectations (additive; tests will be updated in build).

+
+## Why documentation applies
+F-003 defines the API-wide HTTP contract (request id, error envelope, validation hook) that every future module consumes.
+
+## Documents reviewed/produced
+- `project/README.md`: new "HTTP contract" section — x-request-id policy, envelope shape + codes, no-stack-leak guarantee, parseJson validation pattern, LOG_LEVEL. (Applied via a build-stage bounce because `project/` writes require build/implementer/running.)
+- `spec/tech.md`: pino + zod justification rows added at build stage.
+- `specs/F-003-http-foundation/` SPEC/DESIGN/TASKS/TESTS consistent with implementation.
+
+## Verification
+- README HTTP contract section matches tested behavior (cross-checked against qa.json live probes and test suite).
+- Envelope documented as v2 (additive over F-001), codes enumerated.
+
+## Pending docs (not this ticket)
+- Per-module validation schemas documented as modules land (F-005+).

+  GET /nope          -> 404 envelope v2 with requestId matching log line
+  POST /health bad json -> 400; log code FST_ERR_CTP_INVALID_JSON_BODY with same requestId as response
+  server logs: one "request completed" JSON line per request carrying requestId
+```
+
+## Known limitations
+- Fastify 4xx parse-error messages are exposed as-is (e.g. "Unexpected token"); they carry no internals and are standard.
+- Validation hook is exercised via a test-only route (/__test/echo registered in composition test); first production consumer arrives with F-005.
+
+## Follow-up work
+- F-004 config/flags will centralize LOG_LEVEL handling.
+- F-005 identity first real parseJson consumer.

+- Sugerencia de orden: F-004 → F-005 (identity necesita config/flags limpio para secrets).
 
 ## Bitácora
-- 2026-08-14: F-001 DONE y F-002 DONE, todos los gates APPROVED, verify.sh verde.
+- 2026-08-14: F-001, F-002 y F-003 DONE; todos los gates APPROVED; verify.sh verde.
 - Dev PostgreSQL + Redis siguen corriendo (mdv-dev-postgres, mdv-dev-redis) para los próximos tickets.
