1. Database Choices

• Choice: SQLite instead of PostgreSQL
• Reason: Lightweight proof-of-concept focused on functionality
• Trade-off: Sacrificed concurrent write performance for simplicity
• Future: Migration path to PostgreSQL for production scale

2. Frontend State Management

• Choice: TanStack Query over Redux
• Reason: Simpler server state management, reduced boilerplate
• Trade-off: Less control over complex client state
• Future: Consider Zustand for client state if complexity grows

3. AI Model Selection

• Choice: GPT-4 for all AI operations
• Reason: Best performance for understanding governance context
• Trade-off: Higher latency and cost compared to smaller models
• Future: Fine-tune smaller models for specific tasks

4. Authentication System

• Choice: Wallet-based authentication only
• Reason: Natural fit for blockchain interaction
• Trade-off: Limited user management capabilities
• Future: Add traditional auth for non-blockchain features
