# Operational Context

## System Runtime

### Production Environment
- Production URL: http://thrillwiki.com
- Django-based web application
- WSGI deployment
- Static file serving via staticfiles/

### Development Environment
- Command: python manage.py tailwind runserver
- Local development setup
- Debug mode configurations
- Development-specific settings

## Error Handling Patterns

### Application Errors
1. Django Error Pages
   - 404.html for not found
   - 500.html for server errors
   - Custom error templates
   - User-friendly messages

2. HTMX Error Handling
   - Partial template errors
   - Response status codes
   - Error feedback in UI
   - Graceful degradation

3. Form Validation
   - Server-side validation
   - Client-side checks
   - Error message display
   - Field-level feedback

### System Monitoring
1. Error Tracking
   - Django logging
   - Error reporting
   - Performance monitoring
   - User feedback collection

2. Performance Metrics
   - Page load times
   - Database query performance
   - Media processing speed
   - API response times

## Infrastructure Details

2. Data Integrity
   - Foreign key constraints
   - Validation rules
   - Transaction management
   - Backup procedures

### Caching Strategy
1. Template Caching

   - Query caching
   - Cache invalidation

2. Static Asset Caching
   - Browser caching
   - CDN configuration
   - Cache headers
   - Version control

## Performance Requirements

### Response Times
1. Page Load
   - Initial load < 2s
   - HTMX updates < 500ms
   - API responses < 200ms
   - Media loading optimized

2. Interactive Elements
   - UI feedback < 100ms
   - Form submission < 1s
   - Search results < 500ms
   - Media upload feedback

### Resource Usage
1. Server Resources
   - CPU utilization
   - Memory management
   - Disk space monitoring
   - Network bandwidth

2. Client Resources
   - JavaScript performance
   - DOM updates
   - Memory usage
   - Network requests

### Scalability Considerations
1. Database Scaling
   - Connection pooling
   - Query optimization
   - Index management
   - Partition strategy

2. Application Scaling
