+# Database Connection Manager (dbmanager)
+
+A comprehensive database connection manager for Go that provides centralized management of multiple named database connections with support for PostgreSQL, SQLite, MSSQL, and MongoDB.
+
+## Features
+
+- **Multiple Named Connections**: Manage multiple database connections with names like `primary`, `analytics`, `cache-db`
+- **Multi-Database Support**: PostgreSQL, SQLite, Microsoft SQL Server, and MongoDB
+- **Multi-ORM Access**: Each SQL connection provides access through:
+  - **Bun ORM** - Modern, lightweight ORM
+  - **GORM** - Popular Go ORM
+  - **Native** - Standard library `*sql.DB`
+  - All three share the same underlying connection pool
+- **Configuration-Driven**: YAML configuration with Viper integration
+- **Production-Ready Features**:
+  - Automatic health checks and reconnection
+  - Prometheus metrics
+  - Connection pooling with configurable limits
+  - Retry logic with exponential backoff
+  - Graceful shutdown
+  - OpenTelemetry tracing support
+
+## Installation
+
+```bash
+go get github.com/bitechdev/ResolveSpec/pkg/dbmanager
+```
+
+## Quick Start
+
+### 1. Configuration
+
+Create a configuration file (e.g., `config.yaml`):
+
+```yaml
+dbmanager:
+  default_connection: "primary"
+
+  # Global connection pool defaults
+  max_open_conns: 25
+  max_idle_conns: 5
+  conn_max_lifetime: 30m
+  conn_max_idle_time: 5m
+
+  # Retry configuration
+  retry_attempts: 3
+  retry_delay: 1s
+  retry_max_delay: 10s
+
+  # Health checks
+  health_check_interval: 30s
+  enable_auto_reconnect: true
+
+  connections:
+    # Primary PostgreSQL connection
+    primary:
+      type: postgres
+      host: localhost
+      port: 5432
+      user: myuser
+      password: mypassword
+      database: myapp
+      sslmode: disable
+      default_orm: bun
+      enable_metrics: true
+      enable_tracing: true
+      enable_logging: true
+
+    # Read replica for analytics
+    analytics:
+      type: postgres
+      dsn: "postgres://readonly:pass@analytics:5432/analytics"
+      default_orm: bun
+      enable_metrics: true
+
+    # SQLite cache
+    cache-db:
+      type: sqlite
+      filepath: /var/lib/app/cache.db
+      max_open_conns: 1
+
+    # MongoDB for documents
+    documents:
+      type: mongodb
+      host: localhost
+      port: 27017
+      database: documents
+      user: mongouser
+      password: mongopass
+      auth_source: admin
+      enable_metrics: true
+```
+
+### 2. Initialize Manager
+
+```go
+package main
+
+import (
+    "context"
+    "log"
+
+    "github.com/bitechdev/ResolveSpec/pkg/config"
+    "github.com/bitechdev/ResolveSpec/pkg/dbmanager"
+)
+
+func main() {
+    // Load configuration
+    cfgMgr := config.NewManager()
+    if err := cfgMgr.Load(); err != nil {
+        log.Fatal(err)
+    }
+    cfg, _ := cfgMgr.GetConfig()
+
+    // Create database manager
+    mgr, err := dbmanager.NewManager(cfg.DBManager)
+    if err != nil {
+        log.Fatal(err)
+    }
+    defer mgr.Close()
+
+    // Connect all databases
+    ctx := context.Background()
+    if err := mgr.Connect(ctx); err != nil {
+        log.Fatal(err)
+    }
+
+    // Your application code here...
+}
+```
+
+### 3. Use Database Connections
+
+#### Get Default Database
+
+```go
+// Get the default database (as configured common.Database interface)
+db, err := mgr.GetDefaultDatabase()
+if err != nil {
+    log.Fatal(err)
+}
+
+// Use it with any query
+var users []User
+err = db.NewSelect().
+    Model(&users).
+    Where("active = ?", true).
+    Scan(ctx, &users)
+```
+
+#### Get Named Connection with Specific ORM
+
+```go
+// Get primary connection
+primary, err := mgr.Get("primary")
+if err != nil {
+    log.Fatal(err)
+}
+
+// Use with Bun
+bunDB, err := primary.Bun()
+if err != nil {
+    log.Fatal(err)
+}
+err = bunDB.NewSelect().Model(&users).Scan(ctx)
+
+// Use with GORM (same underlying connection!)
+gormDB, err := primary.GORM()
+if err != nil {
+    log.Fatal(err)
+}
+gormDB.Where("active = ?", true).Find(&users)
+
+// Use native *sql.DB
+nativeDB, err := primary.Native()
+if err != nil {
+    log.Fatal(err)
+}
+rows, err := nativeDB.QueryContext(ctx, "SELECT * FROM users WHERE active = $1", true)
+```
+
+#### Use MongoDB
+
+```go
+// Get MongoDB connection
+docs, err := mgr.Get("documents")
+if err != nil {
+    log.Fatal(err)
+}
+
+mongoClient, err := docs.MongoDB()
+if err != nil {
+    log.Fatal(err)
+}
+
+collection := mongoClient.Database("documents").Collection("articles")
+// Use MongoDB driver...
+```
+
+#### Change Default Database
+
+```go
+// Switch to analytics database as default
+err := mgr.SetDefaultDatabase("analytics")
+if err != nil {
+    log.Fatal(err)
+}
+
+// Now GetDefaultDatabase() returns the analytics connection
+db, _ := mgr.GetDefaultDatabase()
+```

+## Advanced Usage
+
+### Health Checks
+
+```go
+// Manual health check
+if err := mgr.HealthCheck(ctx); err != nil {
+    log.Printf("Health check failed: %v", err)
+}
+
+// Per-connection health check
+primary, _ := mgr.Get("primary")
+if err := primary.HealthCheck(ctx); err != nil {
+    log.Printf("Primary connection unhealthy: %v", err)
+
+    // Manual reconnect
+    if err := primary.Reconnect(ctx); err != nil {
+        log.Printf("Reconnection failed: %v", err)
+    }
+}
+```
+
+### Connection Statistics
+
+```go
+// Get overall statistics
+stats := mgr.Stats()
+fmt.Printf("Total connections: %d\n", stats.TotalConnections)
+fmt.Printf("Healthy: %d, Unhealthy: %d\n", stats.HealthyCount, stats.UnhealthyCount)
+
+// Per-connection stats
+for name, connStats := range stats.ConnectionStats {
+    fmt.Printf("%s: %d open, %d in use, %d idle\n",
+        name,
+        connStats.OpenConnections,
+        connStats.InUse,
+        connStats.Idle)
+}
+
+// Individual connection stats
+primary, _ := mgr.Get("primary")
+stats := primary.Stats()
+fmt.Printf("Wait count: %d, Wait duration: %v\n",
+    stats.WaitCount,
+    stats.WaitDuration)
+```
+
+### Prometheus Metrics
+
+The package automatically exports Prometheus metrics:
+
+- `dbmanager_connections_total` - Total configured connections by type
+- `dbmanager_connection_status` - Connection health status (1=healthy, 0=unhealthy)
+- `dbmanager_connection_pool_size` - Connection pool statistics by state
+- `dbmanager_connection_wait_count` - Times connections waited for availability
+- `dbmanager_connection_wait_duration_seconds` - Total wait duration
+- `dbmanager_health_check_duration_seconds` - Health check execution time
+- `dbmanager_reconnect_attempts_total` - Reconnection attempts and results
+- `dbmanager_connection_lifetime_closed_total` - Connections closed due to max lifetime
+- `dbmanager_connection_idle_closed_total` - Connections closed due to max idle time
+
+Metrics are automatically updated during health checks. To manually publish metrics:
+
+```go
+if mgr, ok := mgr.(*connectionManager); ok {
+    mgr.PublishMetrics()
+}
+```
+
+## Architecture
+
+### Single Connection Pool, Multiple ORMs
+
+A key design principle is that Bun, GORM, and Native all wrap the **same underlying `*sql.DB`** connection pool:
+
+```
+┌─────────────────────────────────────┐
+│        SQL Connection               │
+├─────────────────────────────────────┤
+│  ┌─────────┐  ┌──────┐  ┌────────┐ │
+│  │   Bun   │  │ GORM │  │ Native │ │
+│  └────┬────┘  └───┬──┘  └───┬────┘ │
+│       │           │         │      │
+│       └───────────┴─────────┘      │
+│              *sql.DB                │
+│         (single pool)               │
+└─────────────────────────────────────┘
+```
+
+**Benefits:**
+- No connection duplication
+- Consistent pool limits across all ORMs
+- Unified connection statistics
+- Lower resource usage
+
+### Provider Pattern
+
+Each database type has a dedicated provider:
+
+- **PostgresProvider** - Uses `pgx` driver
+- **SQLiteProvider** - Uses `glebarez/sqlite` (pure Go)
+- **MSSQLProvider** - Uses `go-mssqldb`
+- **MongoProvider** - Uses official `mongo-driver`
+
+Providers handle:
+- Connection establishment with retry logic
+- Health checking
+- Connection statistics
+- Connection cleanup
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Use Named Connections**: Be explicit about which database you're accessing
+   ```go
+   primary, _ := mgr.Get("primary")    // Good
+   db, _ := mgr.GetDefaultDatabase()   // Risky if default changes
+   ```
+
+2. **Configure Connection Pools**: Tune based on your workload
+   ```yaml
+   connections:
+     primary:
+       max_open_conns: 100  # High traffic API
+       max_idle_conns: 25
+     analytics:
+       max_open_conns: 10   # Background analytics
+       max_idle_conns: 2
+   ```
+
+3. **Enable Health Checks**: Catch connection issues early
+   ```yaml
+   health_check_interval: 30s
+   enable_auto_reconnect: true
+   ```
+
+4. **Use Appropriate ORM**: Choose based on your needs
+   - **Bun**: Modern, fast, type-safe - recommended for new code
+   - **GORM**: Mature, feature-rich - good for existing GORM code
+   - **Native**: Maximum control - use for performance-critical queries
+
+5. **Monitor Metrics**: Watch connection pool utilization
+   - If `wait_count` is high, increase `max_open_conns`
+   - If `idle` is always high, decrease `max_idle_conns`
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Connection Failures
+
+If connections fail to establish:
+
+1. Check configuration:
+   ```bash
+   # Test connection manually
+   psql -h localhost -U myuser -d myapp
+   ```
+
+2. Enable logging:
+   ```yaml
+   connections:
+     primary:
+       enable_logging: true
+   ```
+
+3. Check retry attempts:
+   ```yaml
+   retry_attempts: 5  # Increase retries
+   retry_max_delay: 30s
+   ```
+
+### Pool Exhaustion
+
+If you see "too many connections" errors:
+
+1. Increase pool size:
+   ```yaml
+   max_open_conns: 50  # Increase from default 25
+   ```
+
+2. Reduce connection lifetime:
+   ```yaml
+   conn_max_lifetime: 15m  # Recycle faster
+   ```

+3. Monitor wait stats:
+   ```go
+   stats := primary.Stats()
+   if stats.WaitCount > 1000 {
+       log.Warn("High connection wait count")
+   }
+   ```
+
+### MongoDB vs SQL Confusion
+
+MongoDB connections don't support SQL ORMs:
+
+```go
+docs, _ := mgr.Get("documents")
+
+// ✓ Correct
+mongoClient, _ := docs.MongoDB()
+
+// ✗ Error: ErrNotSQLDatabase
+bunDB, err := docs.Bun()  // Won't work!
+```
+
+SQL connections don't support MongoDB:
+
+```go
+primary, _ := mgr.Get("primary")
+
+// ✓ Correct
+bunDB, _ := primary.Bun()
+
+// ✗ Error: ErrNotMongoDB
+mongoClient, err := primary.MongoDB()  // Won't work!
+```
+
+## Migration Guide
+
+### From Raw `database/sql`
+
+Before:
+```go
+db, err := sql.Open("postgres", dsn)
+defer db.Close()
+
+rows, err := db.Query("SELECT * FROM users")
+```
+
+After:
+```go
+mgr, _ := dbmanager.NewManager(cfg.DBManager)
+mgr.Connect(ctx)
+defer mgr.Close()
+
+primary, _ := mgr.Get("primary")
+nativeDB, _ := primary.Native()
+
+rows, err := nativeDB.Query("SELECT * FROM users")
+```
+
+### From Direct Bun/GORM
+
+Before:
+```go
+sqldb, _ := sql.Open("pgx", dsn)
+bunDB := bun.NewDB(sqldb, pgdialect.New())
+
+var users []User
+bunDB.NewSelect().Model(&users).Scan(ctx)
+```
+
+After:
+```go
+mgr, _ := dbmanager.NewManager(cfg.DBManager)
+mgr.Connect(ctx)
+
+primary, _ := mgr.Get("primary")
+bunDB, _ := primary.Bun()
+
+var users []User
+bunDB.NewSelect().Model(&users).Scan(ctx)
+```

+PostgreSQL NOTIFY/LISTEN is a simple pub/sub mechanism that allows database clients to:
+- **LISTEN** on named channels to receive notifications
+- **NOTIFY** channels to send messages to all listeners
+- Receive asynchronous notifications without polling
+
+## Features
+
+- ✅ Subscribe to multiple channels simultaneously
+- ✅ Callback-based notification handling
+- ✅ Automatic reconnection on connection loss
+- ✅ Automatic resubscription after reconnection
+- ✅ Thread-safe operations
+- ✅ Panic recovery in notification handlers
+- ✅ Dedicated connection for listening (doesn't interfere with queries)
+
+## Usage
+
+### Basic Usage
+
+```go
+package main
+
+import (
+    "context"
+    "fmt"
+    "time"
+
+    "github.com/bitechdev/ResolveSpec/pkg/dbmanager/providers"
+)
+
+func main() {
+    // Create PostgreSQL provider
+    cfg := &providers.Config{
+        Name:     "primary",
+        Type:     "postgres",
+        Host:     "localhost",
+        Port:     5432,
+        User:     "postgres",
+        Password: "password",
+        Database: "myapp",
+    }
+
+    provider := providers.NewPostgresProvider()
+    ctx := context.Background()
+
+    if err := provider.Connect(ctx, cfg); err != nil {
+        panic(err)
+    }
+    defer provider.Close()
+
+    // Get listener
+    listener, err := provider.GetListener(ctx)
+    if err != nil {
+        panic(err)
+    }
+
+    // Subscribe to a channel
+    err = listener.Listen("events", func(channel, payload string) {
+        fmt.Printf("Received on %s: %s\n", channel, payload)
+    })
+    if err != nil {
+        panic(err)
+    }
+
+    // Send a notification
+    err = listener.Notify(ctx, "events", "Hello, World!")
+    if err != nil {
+        panic(err)
+    }
+
+    // Keep the program running
+    time.Sleep(1 * time.Second)
+}
+```
+
+### Multiple Channels
+
+```go
+listener, _ := provider.GetListener(ctx)
+
+// Listen to different channels with different handlers
+listener.Listen("user_events", func(channel, payload string) {
+    fmt.Printf("User event: %s\n", payload)
+})
+
+listener.Listen("order_events", func(channel, payload string) {
+    fmt.Printf("Order event: %s\n", payload)
+})
+
+listener.Listen("payment_events", func(channel, payload string) {
+    fmt.Printf("Payment event: %s\n", payload)
+})
+```
+
+### Unsubscribing
+
+```go
+// Stop listening to a specific channel
+err := listener.Unlisten("user_events")
+if err != nil {
+    fmt.Printf("Failed to unlisten: %v\n", err)
+}
+```
+
+### Checking Active Channels
+
+```go
+// Get list of channels currently being listened to
+channels := listener.Channels()
+fmt.Printf("Listening to: %v\n", channels)
+```
+
+### Checking Connection Status
+
+```go
+if listener.IsConnected() {
+    fmt.Println("Listener is connected")
+} else {
+    fmt.Println("Listener is disconnected")
+}
+```
+
+## Integration with DBManager
+
+When using the DBManager, you can access the listener through the PostgreSQL provider:
+
+```go
+// Initialize DBManager
+mgr, err := dbmanager.NewManager(dbmanager.FromConfig(cfg.DBManager))
+mgr.Connect(ctx)
+defer mgr.Close()
+
+// Get PostgreSQL connection
+conn, err := mgr.Get("primary")
+
+// Note: You'll need to cast to the underlying provider type
+// This requires exposing the provider through the Connection interface
+// or providing a helper method
+```
+
+## Use Cases
+
+### Cache Invalidation
+
+```go
+listener.Listen("cache_invalidation", func(channel, payload string) {
+    // Parse the payload to determine what to invalidate
+    cache.Invalidate(payload)
+})
+```
+
+### Real-time Updates
+
+```go
+listener.Listen("data_updates", func(channel, payload string) {
+    // Broadcast update to WebSocket clients
+    websocketBroadcast(payload)
+})
+```
+
+### Configuration Reload
+
+```go
+listener.Listen("config_reload", func(channel, payload string) {
+    // Reload application configuration
+    config.Reload()
+})
+```
+
+### Distributed Locking
+
+```go
+listener.Listen("lock_released", func(channel, payload string) {
+    // Attempt to acquire the lock
+    tryAcquireLock(payload)
+})
+```
+
+## Automatic Reconnection
+
+The listener automatically handles connection failures:
+
+1. When a connection error is detected, the listener initiates reconnection
+2. Once reconnected, it automatically resubscribes to all previous channels
+3. Notification handlers remain active throughout the reconnection process
+
+No manual intervention is required for reconnection.
+
+## Error Handling
+
+### Handler Panics
+
+If a notification handler panics, the panic is recovered and logged. The listener continues to function normally:
+
+```go
+listener.Listen("events", func(channel, payload string) {
+    defer func() {
+        if r := recover(); r != nil {
+            log.Printf("Handler panic: %v", r)
+        }
+    }()
+
+    // Your event processing logic
+    processEvent(payload)
+})
+```
+
+### Connection Errors
+
+Connection errors trigger automatic reconnection. Check logs for reconnection events when `EnableLogging` is true.
+
+## Thread Safety
+
+All `PostgresListener` methods are thread-safe and can be called concurrently from multiple goroutines.
+
+## Performance Considerations
+
+1. **Dedicated Connection**: The listener uses a dedicated PostgreSQL connection separate from the query connection pool
+2. **Asynchronous Handlers**: Notification handlers run in separate goroutines to avoid blocking
+3. **Lightweight**: NOTIFY/LISTEN has minimal overhead compared to polling
+
+## Comparison with Polling
+
+| Feature | NOTIFY/LISTEN | Polling |
+|---------|---------------|---------|
+| Latency | Low (near real-time) | High (depends on poll interval) |
+| Database Load | Minimal | High (constant queries) |
+| Scalability | Excellent | Poor |
+| Complexity | Simple | Moderate |
+
+## Limitations
+
+1. **PostgreSQL Only**: This feature is specific to PostgreSQL and not available for other databases
+2. **No Message Persistence**: Notifications are not stored; if no listener is connected, the message is lost
+3. **Payload Limit**: Notification payload is limited to 8000 bytes in PostgreSQL
+4. **No Guaranteed Delivery**: If a listener disconnects, in-flight notifications may be lost
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Keep Handlers Fast**: Notification handlers should be quick; for heavy processing, send work to a queue
+2. **Use JSON Payloads**: Encode structured data as JSON for easy parsing
+3. **Handle Errors Gracefully**: Always recover from panics in handlers
+4. **Close Properly**: Always close the provider to ensure the listener is properly shut down
+5. **Monitor Connection Status**: Use `IsConnected()` for health checks
+
+## Example: Real-World Application
+
+```go
+// Subscribe to various application events
+listener, _ := provider.GetListener(ctx)
+
+// User registration events
+listener.Listen("user_registered", func(channel, payload string) {
+    var event UserRegisteredEvent
+    json.Unmarshal([]byte(payload), &event)
+
+    // Send welcome email
+    sendWelcomeEmail(event.UserID)
+
+    // Invalidate user count cache
+    cache.Delete("user_count")
+})
+
+// Order placement events
+listener.Listen("order_placed", func(channel, payload string) {
+    var event OrderPlacedEvent
+    json.Unmarshal([]byte(payload), &event)
+
+    // Notify warehouse system
+    warehouse.ProcessOrder(event.OrderID)
+
+    // Update inventory cache
+    cache.Invalidate("inventory:" + event.ProductID)
+})
+
+// Configuration changes
+listener.Listen("config_updated", func(channel, payload string) {
+    // Reload configuration from database
+    appConfig.Reload()
+})
+```
+
+## Triggering Notifications from SQL
+
+You can trigger notifications directly from PostgreSQL triggers or functions:
+
+```sql
+-- Example trigger to notify on new user
+CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION notify_user_registered()
+RETURNS TRIGGER AS $$
+BEGIN
+    PERFORM pg_notify('user_registered',
+        json_build_object(
+            'user_id', NEW.id,
+            'email', NEW.email,
+            'timestamp', NOW()
+        )::text
+    );
+    RETURN NEW;
+END;
+$$ LANGUAGE plpgsql;
+
+CREATE TRIGGER user_registered_trigger
+AFTER INSERT ON users
+FOR EACH ROW
+EXECUTE FUNCTION notify_user_registered();
+```

+## Pushgateway Usage
+
+### Automatic Push (Batch Jobs)
+
+For jobs that run periodically, use automatic pushing:
+
+```go
+package main
+
+import (
+    "time"
+
+    "github.com/bitechdev/ResolveSpec/pkg/metrics"
+)
+
+func main() {
+    // Configure with automatic pushing every 30 seconds
+    config := &metrics.Config{
+        Enabled:             true,
+        Provider:            "prometheus",
+        Namespace:           "batch_job",
+        PushgatewayURL:      "http://pushgateway:9091",
+        PushgatewayJobName:  "data-processor",
+        PushgatewayInterval: 30, // Push every 30 seconds
+    }
+
+    provider := metrics.NewPrometheusProvider(config)
+    metrics.SetProvider(provider)
+
+    // Ensure cleanup on exit
+    defer provider.StopAutoPush()
+
+    // Your batch job logic here
+    processBatchData()
+}
+```
+
+### Manual Push (Short-lived Processes)
+
+For one-time jobs or when you want manual control:
+
+```go
+package main
+
+import (
+    "log"
+
+    "github.com/bitechdev/ResolveSpec/pkg/metrics"
+)
+
+func main() {

+        PushgatewayJobName: "migration-job",
+        // PushgatewayInterval: 0 (default - no auto-push)

+
+    provider := metrics.NewPrometheusProvider(config)

+# ResolveSpec - Body-Based REST API
+
+ResolveSpec provides a REST API where query options are passed in the JSON request body. This approach offers GraphQL-like flexibility while maintaining RESTful principles, making it ideal for complex queries and operations.
+
+## Features
+
+* **Body-Based Querying**: All query options passed via JSON request body
+* **Lifecycle Hooks**: Before/after hooks for create, read, update, delete operations
+* **Cursor Pagination**: Efficient cursor-based pagination with complex sorting
+* **Offset Pagination**: Traditional limit/offset pagination support
+* **Advanced Filtering**: Multiple operators, AND/OR logic, and custom SQL
+* **Relationship Preloading**: Load related entities with custom column selection and filters
+* **Recursive CRUD**: Automatically handle nested object graphs with foreign key resolution
+* **Computed Columns**: Define virtual columns with SQL expressions
+* **Database-Agnostic**: Works with GORM, Bun, or custom database adapters
+* **Router-Agnostic**: Integrates with any HTTP router through standard interfaces
+* **Type-Safe**: Strong type validation and conversion
+
+## Quick Start
+
+### Setup with GORM
+
+```go
+import "github.com/bitechdev/ResolveSpec/pkg/resolvespec"
+import "github.com/gorilla/mux"
+
+// Create handler
+handler := resolvespec.NewHandlerWithGORM(db)
+
+// IMPORTANT: Register models BEFORE setting up routes
+handler.registry.RegisterModel("core.users", &User{})
+handler.registry.RegisterModel("core.posts", &Post{})
+
+// Setup routes
+router := mux.NewRouter()
+resolvespec.SetupMuxRoutes(router, handler, nil)
+
+// Start server
+http.ListenAndServe(":8080", router)
+```
+
+### Setup with Bun ORM
+
+```go
+import "github.com/bitechdev/ResolveSpec/pkg/resolvespec"
+import "github.com/uptrace/bun"
+
+// Create handler with Bun
+handler := resolvespec.NewHandlerWithBun(bunDB)
+
+// Register models
+handler.registry.RegisterModel("core.users", &User{})
+
+// Setup routes (same as GORM)
+router := mux.NewRouter()
+resolvespec.SetupMuxRoutes(router, handler, nil)
+```
+
+## Basic Usage
+
+### Simple Read Request
+
+```http
+POST /core/users HTTP/1.1
+Content-Type: application/json
+
+```
+
+### With Preloading
+
+```http
+POST /core/users HTTP/1.1
+Content-Type: application/json
+
+```
+
+## Request Structure
+
+### Request Format
+
+```json

+### Complex Filtering Example
+
+```json
+{
+  "operation": "read",
+  "options": {
+    "filters": [
+      {
+        "column": "status",
+        "operator": "eq",
+        "value": "active"
+      },
+      {
+        "column": "age",
+        "operator": "gte",
+        "value": 18
+      },
+      {
+        "column": "email",
+        "operator": "ilike",
+        "value": "%@company.com"
+      }
+    ]
+  }
+}
+```
+
+## Preloading
+
+Load related entities with custom configuration:
+
+```json
+{
+  "operation": "read",
+  "options": {
+    "columns": ["id", "name", "email"],
+    "preload": [
+      {
+        "relation": "posts",
+        "columns": ["id", "title", "created_at"],
+        "filters": [
+          {
+            "column": "status",
+            "operator": "eq",
+            "value": "published"
+          }
+        ],
+        "sort": [
+          {
+            "column": "created_at",
+            "direction": "desc"
+          }
+        ],
+        "limit": 5
+      },
+      {
+        "relation": "profile",
+        "columns": ["bio", "website"]
+      }
+    ]
+  }
+}
+```
+
+## Cursor Pagination
+
+Efficient pagination for large datasets:
+
+### First Request (No Cursor)
+
+```json
+{
+  "operation": "read",
+  "options": {
+    "sort": [
+      {
+        "column": "created_at",
+        "direction": "desc"
+      },
+      {
+        "column": "id",
+        "direction": "asc"
+      }
+    ],
+    "limit": 50
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Next Page (Forward Cursor)
+
+```json
+{
+  "operation": "read",
+  "options": {
+    "sort": [
+      {
+        "column": "created_at",
+        "direction": "desc"
+      },
+      {
+        "column": "id",
+        "direction": "asc"
+      }
+    ],
+    "limit": 50,
+    "cursor_forward": "12345"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Previous Page (Backward Cursor)
+
+```json
+{
+  "operation": "read",
+  "options": {
+    "sort": [
+      {
+        "column": "created_at",
+        "direction": "desc"
+      },
+      {
+        "column": "id",
+        "direction": "asc"
+      }
+    ],
+    "limit": 50,
+    "cursor_backward": "12300"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Benefits over offset pagination**:
+* Consistent results when data changes
+* Better performance for large offsets
+* Prevents "skipped" or duplicate records
+* Works with complex sort expressions
+
+## Recursive CRUD Operations
+
+Automatically handle nested object graphs with intelligent foreign key resolution.
+
+### Creating Nested Objects
+
+```json
+{
+  "operation": "create",
+  "data": {
+    "name": "John Doe",
+    "email": "john@example.com",
+    "posts": [
+      {
+        "title": "My First Post",
+        "content": "Hello World",
+        "tags": [
+          {"name": "tech"},
+          {"name": "programming"}
+        ]
+      },
+      {
+        "title": "Second Post",
+        "content": "More content"
+      }
+    ],
+    "profile": {
+      "bio": "Software Developer",
+      "website": "https://example.com"
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Per-Record Operation Control with `_request`
+
+Control individual operations for each nested record:
+
+```json
+{
+  "operation": "update",
+  "data": {
+    "name": "John Updated",
+    "posts": [
+      {
+        "_request": "insert",
+        "title": "New Post",
+        "content": "Fresh content"
+      },
+      {
+        "_request": "update",
+        "id": 456,
+        "title": "Updated Post Title"
+      },
+      {
+        "_request": "delete",
+        "id": 789
+      }
+    ]
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Supported `_request` values**:
+* `insert` - Create a new related record
+* `update` - Update an existing related record
+* `delete` - Delete a related record
+* `upsert` - Create if doesn't exist, update if exists
+
+**How It Works**:
+1. Automatic foreign key resolution - parent IDs propagate to children
+2. Recursive processing - handles nested relationships at any depth
+3. Transaction safety - all operations execute atomically
+4. Relationship detection - automatically detects belongsTo, hasMany, hasOne, many2many
+5. Flexible operations - mix create, update, and delete in one request
+
+## Computed Columns
+
+Define virtual columns using SQL expressions:
+
+```json
+{
+  "operation": "read",
+  "options": {
+    "columns": ["id", "first_name", "last_name"],
+    "computedColumns": [
+      {
+        "name": "full_name",
+        "expression": "CONCAT(first_name, ' ', last_name)"
+      },
+      {
+        "name": "age_years",
+        "expression": "EXTRACT(YEAR FROM AGE(birth_date))"
+      }
+    ]
+  }
+}
+```
+
+## Custom Operators
+
+Add custom SQL conditions when needed:
+
+```json
+{
+  "operation": "read",
+  "options": {
+    "customOperators": [
+      {
+        "condition": "LOWER(email) LIKE ?",
+        "values": ["%@example.com"]
+      },
+      {
+        "condition": "created_at > NOW() - INTERVAL '7 days'"
+      }
+    ]
+  }
+}
+```
+
+## Lifecycle Hooks
+
+Register hooks for all CRUD operations:
+
+```go
+import "github.com/bitechdev/ResolveSpec/pkg/resolvespec"
+
+// Create handler
+handler := resolvespec.NewHandlerWithGORM(db)
+
+// Register a before-read hook (e.g., for authorization)
+handler.Hooks().Register(resolvespec.BeforeRead, func(ctx *resolvespec.HookContext) error {
+    // Check permissions
+    if !userHasPermission(ctx.Context, ctx.Entity) {
+        return fmt.Errorf("unauthorized access to %s", ctx.Entity)
+    }
+
+    // Modify query options
+    if ctx.Options.Limit == nil || *ctx.Options.Limit > 100 {
+        ctx.Options.Limit = ptr(100) // Enforce max limit
+    }
+
+    return nil
+})
+
+// Register an after-read hook (e.g., for data transformation)
+handler.Hooks().Register(resolvespec.AfterRead, func(ctx *resolvespec.HookContext) error {
+    // Transform or filter results
+    if users, ok := ctx.Result.([]User); ok {
+        for i := range users {
+            users[i].Email = maskEmail(users[i].Email)
+        }
+    }
+    return nil
+})
+
+// Register a before-create hook (e.g., for validation)
+handler.Hooks().Register(resolvespec.BeforeCreate, func(ctx *resolvespec.HookContext) error {
+    // Validate data
+    if user, ok := ctx.Data.(*User); ok {
+        if user.Email == "" {
+            return fmt.Errorf("email is required")
+        }
+        // Add timestamps
+        user.CreatedAt = time.Now()
+    }
+    return nil
+})
+```
+
+**Available Hook Types**:
+* `BeforeRead`, `AfterRead`
+* `BeforeCreate`, `AfterCreate`
+* `BeforeUpdate`, `AfterUpdate`
+* `BeforeDelete`, `AfterDelete`
+
+**HookContext** provides:
+* `Context`: Request context
+* `Handler`: Access to handler, database, and registry
+* `Schema`, `Entity`, `TableName`: Request info
+* `Model`: The registered model type
+* `Options`: Parsed request options (filters, sorting, etc.)
+* `ID`: Record ID (for single-record operations)
+* `Data`: Request data (for create/update)
+* `Result`: Operation result (for after hooks)
+* `Writer`: Response writer (allows hooks to modify response)
+
+## Model Registration
+
+```go
+type User struct {
+    ID        uint      `json:"id" gorm:"primaryKey"`
+    Name      string    `json:"name"`
+    Email     string    `json:"email"`
+    Status    string    `json:"status"`
+    CreatedAt time.Time `json:"created_at"`
+    Posts     []Post    `json:"posts,omitempty" gorm:"foreignKey:UserID"`
+    Profile   *Profile  `json:"profile,omitempty" gorm:"foreignKey:UserID"`
+}
+
+type Post struct {
+    ID        uint      `json:"id" gorm:"primaryKey"`
+    UserID    uint      `json:"user_id"`
+    Title     string    `json:"title"`
+    Content   string    `json:"content"`
+    Status    string    `json:"status"`
+    CreatedAt time.Time `json:"created_at"`
+    Tags      []Tag     `json:"tags,omitempty" gorm:"many2many:post_tags"`
+}
+
+// Schema.Table format
+handler.registry.RegisterModel("core.users", &User{})
+handler.registry.RegisterModel("core.posts", &Post{})

+    "testing"
+)
+
+func TestUserRead(t *testing.T) {

+    handler.registry.RegisterModel("core.users", &User{})
+
+    reqBody := map[string]interface{}{

+        "options": map[string]interface{}{
+            "columns": []string{"id", "name"},
+            "limit":   10,
+        },
+    }
+
+    body, _ := json.Marshal(reqBody)
+    req := httptest.NewRequest("POST", "/core/users", bytes.NewReader(body))
+    rec := httptest.NewRecorder()

 **Note:** Currently, expand falls back to preload behavior. Full JOIN expansion is planned for future implementation.
 
 #### `x-custom-sql-join`
-Raw SQL JOIN statement.
+Custom SQL JOIN clauses for joining tables in queries.
 
-**Format:** SQL JOIN clause
+**Format:** SQL JOIN clause or multiple clauses separated by `|`
+
+**Single JOIN:**
 ```
 x-custom-sql-join: LEFT JOIN departments d ON d.id = employees.department_id
 ```
 
-⚠️ **Note:** Not yet fully implemented.
+**Multiple JOINs:**
+```
+x-custom-sql-join: LEFT JOIN departments d ON d.id = e.dept_id | INNER JOIN roles r ON r.id = e.role_id
+```
+
+**Features:**
+- Supports any type of JOIN (INNER, LEFT, RIGHT, FULL, CROSS)
+- Multiple JOINs can be specified using the pipe `|` separator
+- JOINs are sanitized for security
+- Can be specified via headers or query parameters
+- **Table aliases are automatically extracted and allowed for filtering and sorting**
+
+**Using Join Aliases in Filters and Sorts:**
+
+When you specify a custom SQL join with an alias, you can use that alias in your filter and sort parameters:
+
+```
+# Join with alias
+x-custom-sql-join: LEFT JOIN departments d ON d.id = employees.department_id
+
+# Sort by joined table column
+x-sort: d.name,employees.id
+
+# Filter by joined table column
+x-searchop-eq-d.name: Engineering
+```
+
+The system automatically:
+1. Extracts the alias from the JOIN clause (e.g., `d` from `departments d`)
+2. Validates that prefixed columns (like `d.name`) refer to valid join aliases
+3. Allows these prefixed columns in filters and sorts

+# RestHeadSpec - Header-Based REST API
+
+RestHeadSpec provides a REST API where all query options are passed via HTTP headers instead of the request body. This provides cleaner separation between data and metadata, making it ideal for GET requests and RESTful architectures.
+
+## Features
+
+* **Header-Based Querying**: All query options via HTTP headers
+* **Lifecycle Hooks**: Before/after hooks for create, read, update, delete operations
+* **Cursor Pagination**: Efficient cursor-based pagination with complex sorting
+* **Advanced Filtering**: Field filters, search operators, AND/OR logic
+* **Multiple Response Formats**: Simple, detailed, and Syncfusion-compatible responses
+* **Single Record as Object**: Automatically return single-element arrays as objects (default)
+* **Base64 Support**: Base64-encoded header values for complex queries
+* **Type-Aware Filtering**: Automatic type detection and conversion
+* **CORS Support**: Comprehensive CORS headers for cross-origin requests
+* **OPTIONS Method**: Full OPTIONS support for CORS preflight
+
+## Quick Start
+
+### Setup with GORM
+
+```go
+import "github.com/bitechdev/ResolveSpec/pkg/restheadspec"
+import "github.com/gorilla/mux"
+
+// Create handler
+handler := restheadspec.NewHandlerWithGORM(db)
+
+// IMPORTANT: Register models BEFORE setting up routes
+handler.Registry.RegisterModel("public.users", &User{})
+handler.Registry.RegisterModel("public.posts", &Post{})
+
+// Setup routes
+router := mux.NewRouter()
+restheadspec.SetupMuxRoutes(router, handler, nil)
+
+// Start server
+http.ListenAndServe(":8080", router)
+```
+
+### Setup with Bun ORM
+
+```go
+import "github.com/bitechdev/ResolveSpec/pkg/restheadspec"
+import "github.com/uptrace/bun"
+
+// Create handler with Bun
+handler := restheadspec.NewHandlerWithBun(bunDB)
+
+// Register models
+handler.Registry.RegisterModel("public.users", &User{})
+
+// Setup routes (same as GORM)
+router := mux.NewRouter()
+restheadspec.SetupMuxRoutes(router, handler, nil)
+```
+
+## Basic Usage
+
+### Simple GET Request
+
+```http
+GET /public/users HTTP/1.1
+Host: api.example.com
+X-Select-Fields: id,name,email
+X-FieldFilter-Status: active
+X-Sort: -created_at
+X-Limit: 50
+```
+
+### With Preloading
+
+```http
+GET /public/users HTTP/1.1
+X-Select-Fields: id,name,email,department_id
+X-Preload: department:id,name
+X-FieldFilter-Status: active
+X-Limit: 50
+```
+
+## Common Headers

+
+## Lifecycle Hooks
+
+RestHeadSpec supports lifecycle hooks for all CRUD operations:
+
+```go
+import "github.com/bitechdev/ResolveSpec/pkg/restheadspec"
+
+// Create handler
+handler := restheadspec.NewHandlerWithGORM(db)
+
+// Register a before-read hook (e.g., for authorization)
+handler.Hooks.Register(restheadspec.BeforeRead, func(ctx *restheadspec.HookContext) error {
+    // Check permissions
+    if !userHasPermission(ctx.Context, ctx.Entity) {
+        return fmt.Errorf("unauthorized access to %s", ctx.Entity)
+    }
+
+    // Modify query options
+    ctx.Options.Limit = ptr(100) // Enforce max limit
+
+    return nil
+})
+
+// Register an after-read hook (e.g., for data transformation)
+handler.Hooks.Register(restheadspec.AfterRead, func(ctx *restheadspec.HookContext) error {
+    // Transform or filter results
+    if users, ok := ctx.Result.([]User); ok {
+        for i := range users {
+            users[i].Email = maskEmail(users[i].Email)
+        }
+    }
+    return nil
+})
+
+// Register a before-create hook (e.g., for validation)
+handler.Hooks.Register(restheadspec.BeforeCreate, func(ctx *restheadspec.HookContext) error {
+    // Validate data
+    if user, ok := ctx.Data.(*User); ok {
+        if user.Email == "" {
+            return fmt.Errorf("email is required")
+        }
+        // Add timestamps
+        user.CreatedAt = time.Now()
+    }
+    return nil
+})
+```
+
+**Available Hook Types**:
+* `BeforeRead`, `AfterRead`
+* `BeforeCreate`, `AfterCreate`
+* `BeforeUpdate`, `AfterUpdate`
+* `BeforeDelete`, `AfterDelete`
+
+**HookContext** provides:
+* `Context`: Request context
+* `Handler`: Access to handler, database, and registry
+* `Schema`, `Entity`, `TableName`: Request info
+* `Model`: The registered model type
+* `Options`: Parsed request options (filters, sorting, etc.)
+* `ID`: Record ID (for single-record operations)
+* `Data`: Request data (for create/update)
+* `Result`: Operation result (for after hooks)
+* `Writer`: Response writer (allows hooks to modify response)
+
+## Cursor Pagination
+
+RestHeadSpec supports efficient cursor-based pagination for large datasets:
+
+```http
+GET /public/posts HTTP/1.1
+X-Sort: -created_at,+id
+X-Limit: 50
+X-Cursor-Forward: <cursor_token>
+```
+
+**How it works**:
+1. First request returns results + cursor token in response
+2. Subsequent requests use `X-Cursor-Forward` or `X-Cursor-Backward`
+3. Cursor maintains consistent ordering even with data changes
+4. Supports complex multi-column sorting
+
+**Benefits over offset pagination**:
+* Consistent results when data changes
+* Better performance for large offsets
+* Prevents "skipped" or duplicate records
+* Works with complex sort expressions
+
+**Example with hooks**:
+
+```go
+// Enable cursor pagination in a hook
+handler.Hooks.Register(restheadspec.BeforeRead, func(ctx *restheadspec.HookContext) error {
+    // For large tables, enforce cursor pagination
+    if ctx.Entity == "posts" && ctx.Options.Offset != nil && *ctx.Options.Offset > 1000 {
+        return fmt.Errorf("use cursor pagination for large offsets")
+    }
+    return nil
+})
+```
+
+## Response Formats
+
+RestHeadSpec supports multiple response formats:
+
+**1. Simple Format** (`X-SimpleApi: true`):
+
+```json
+[
+  { "id": 1, "name": "John" },
+  { "id": 2, "name": "Jane" }
+]
+```
+
+**2. Detail Format** (`X-DetailApi: true`, default):
+
+```json
+{
+  "success": true,
+  "data": [...],
+  "metadata": {
+    "total": 100,
+    "filtered": 100,
+    "limit": 50,
+    "offset": 0
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**3. Syncfusion Format** (`X-Syncfusion: true`):
+
+```json
+{
+  "result": [...],
+  "count": 100
+}
+```
+
+## Single Record as Object (Default Behavior)
+
+By default, RestHeadSpec automatically converts single-element arrays into objects for cleaner API responses.
+
+**Default behavior (enabled)**:
+
+```http
+GET /public/users/123
+```
+
+```json
+{
+  "success": true,
+  "data": { "id": 123, "name": "John", "email": "john@example.com" }
+}
+```
+
+**To disable** (force arrays):
+
+```http
+GET /public/users/123
+X-Single-Record-As-Object: false
+```
+
+```json
+{
+  "success": true,
+  "data": [{ "id": 123, "name": "John", "email": "john@example.com" }]
+}
+```
+
+**How it works**:
+* When a query returns exactly **one record**, it's returned as an object
+* When a query returns **multiple records**, they're returned as an array
+* Set `X-Single-Record-As-Object: false` to always receive arrays
+* Works with all response formats (simple, detail, syncfusion)
+* Applies to both read operations and create/update returning clauses
+
+## CORS & OPTIONS Support
+
+RestHeadSpec includes comprehensive CORS support for cross-origin requests:
+
+**OPTIONS Method**:
+
+```http
+OPTIONS /public/users HTTP/1.1
+```
+
+Returns metadata with appropriate CORS headers:
+
+```http
+Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *
+Access-Control-Allow-Methods: GET, POST, OPTIONS
+Access-Control-Allow-Headers: Content-Type, Authorization, X-Select-Fields, X-FieldFilter-*, ...
+Access-Control-Max-Age: 86400
+Access-Control-Allow-Credentials: true
+```
+
+**Key Features**:
+* OPTIONS returns model metadata (same as GET metadata endpoint)
+* All HTTP methods include CORS headers automatically
+* OPTIONS requests don't require authentication (CORS preflight)
+* Supports all HeadSpec custom headers (`X-Select-Fields`, `X-FieldFilter-*`, etc.)
+* 24-hour max age to reduce preflight requests
+
+**Configuration**:
+
+```go
+import "github.com/bitechdev/ResolveSpec/pkg/common"
+
+// Get default CORS config
+corsConfig := common.DefaultCORSConfig()
+
+// Customize if needed
+corsConfig.AllowedOrigins = []string{"https://example.com"}
+corsConfig.AllowedMethods = []string{"GET", "POST", "PUT", "DELETE", "OPTIONS"}
+```
+
+## Advanced Features
+
+### Base64 Encoding
+
+For complex header values, use base64 encoding:
+
+```http
+GET /public/users HTTP/1.1
+X-Select-Fields-Base64: aWQsbmFtZSxlbWFpbA==
+```
+
+### AND/OR Logic
+
+Combine multiple filters with AND/OR logic:
+
+```http
+GET /public/users HTTP/1.1
+X-FieldFilter-Status: active
+X-SearchOp-Gte-Age: 18
+X-Filter-Logic: AND
+```
+
+### Complex Preloading
+
+Load nested relationships:
+
+```http
+GET /public/users HTTP/1.1
+X-Preload: posts:id,title,comments:id,text,author:name
+```
+
+## Model Registration
+
+```go
+type User struct {
+    ID    uint   `json:"id" gorm:"primaryKey"`
+    Name  string `json:"name"`
+    Email string `json:"email"`
+    Posts []Post `json:"posts,omitempty" gorm:"foreignKey:UserID"`
+}
+
+// Schema.Table format
+handler.Registry.RegisterModel("public.users", &User{})
+```
+
+## Complete Example
+
+```go
+package main
+
+import (
+    "log"
+    "net/http"
+
+    "github.com/bitechdev/ResolveSpec/pkg/restheadspec"
+    "github.com/gorilla/mux"
+    "gorm.io/driver/postgres"
+    "gorm.io/gorm"
+)
+
+type User struct {
+    ID     uint   `json:"id" gorm:"primaryKey"`
+    Name   string `json:"name"`
+    Email  string `json:"email"`
+    Status string `json:"status"`
+}
+
+func main() {
+    // Connect to database
+    db, err := gorm.Open(postgres.Open("your-connection-string"), &gorm.Config{})
+    if err != nil {
+        log.Fatal(err)
+    }
+
+    // Create handler
+    handler := restheadspec.NewHandlerWithGORM(db)
+
+    // Register models
+    handler.Registry.RegisterModel("public.users", &User{})
+
+    // Add hooks
+    handler.Hooks.Register(restheadspec.BeforeRead, func(ctx *restheadspec.HookContext) error {
+        log.Printf("Reading %s", ctx.Entity)
+        return nil
+    })
+
+    // Setup routes
+    router := mux.NewRouter()
+    restheadspec.SetupMuxRoutes(router, handler, nil)
+
+    // Start server
+    log.Println("Server starting on :8080")
+    log.Fatal(http.ListenAndServe(":8080", router))
+}
+```
+
+## Testing
+
+RestHeadSpec is designed for testability:
+
+```go
+import (
+    "net/http/httptest"
+    "testing"
+)
+
+func TestUserRead(t *testing.T) {
+    handler := restheadspec.NewHandlerWithGORM(testDB)
+    handler.Registry.RegisterModel("public.users", &User{})
+
+    req := httptest.NewRequest("GET", "/public/users", nil)
+    req.Header.Set("X-Select-Fields", "id,name")
+    req.Header.Set("X-Limit", "10")
+
+    rec := httptest.NewRecorder()
+    // Test your handler...
+}
+```

+# OAuth2 Authentication Guide
+
+## Overview
+
+The security package provides OAuth2 authentication support for any OAuth2-compliant provider including Google, GitHub, Microsoft, Facebook, and custom providers.
+
+## Features
+
+- **Universal OAuth2 Support**: Works with any OAuth2 provider
+- **Pre-configured Providers**: Google, GitHub, Microsoft, Facebook
+- **Multi-Provider Support**: Use all OAuth2 providers simultaneously
+- **Custom Providers**: Easy configuration for any OAuth2 service
+- **Session Management**: Database-backed session storage
+- **Token Refresh**: Automatic token refresh support
+- **State Validation**: Built-in CSRF protection
+- **User Auto-Creation**: Automatically creates users on first login
+- **Unified Authentication**: OAuth2 and traditional auth share same session storage
+
+## Quick Start
+
+### 1. Database Setup
+
+```sql
+-- Run the schema from database_schema.sql
+CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS users (
+    id SERIAL PRIMARY KEY,
+    username VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL UNIQUE,
+    email VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL UNIQUE,
+    password VARCHAR(255),
+    user_level INTEGER DEFAULT 0,
+    roles VARCHAR(500),
+    is_active BOOLEAN DEFAULT true,
+    created_at TIMESTAMP DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
+    updated_at TIMESTAMP DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
+    last_login_at TIMESTAMP,
+    remote_id VARCHAR(255),
+    auth_provider VARCHAR(50)
+);
+
+CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS user_sessions (
+    id SERIAL PRIMARY KEY,
+    session_token VARCHAR(500) NOT NULL UNIQUE,
+    user_id INTEGER NOT NULL REFERENCES users(id) ON DELETE CASCADE,
+    expires_at TIMESTAMP NOT NULL,
+    created_at TIMESTAMP DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
+    last_activity_at TIMESTAMP DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
+    ip_address VARCHAR(45),
+    user_agent TEXT,
+    access_token TEXT,
+    refresh_token TEXT,
+    token_type VARCHAR(50) DEFAULT 'Bearer',
+    auth_provider VARCHAR(50)
+);
+
+-- OAuth2 stored procedures (7 functions)
+-- See database_schema.sql for full implementation
+```
+
+### 2. Google OAuth2
+
+```go

+        Secure:   true,
+    })
+

+})
+```
+
+### 3. GitHub OAuth2
+
+```go
+oauth2Auth := security.NewGitHubAuthenticator(
+    "your-github-client-id",
+    "your-github-client-secret",
+    "http://localhost:8080/auth/github/callback",
+    db,
+)
+
+// Same routes pattern as Google
+router.HandleFunc("/auth/github/login", ...)
+router.HandleFunc("/auth/github/callback", ...)
+```
+
+### 4. Microsoft OAuth2
+
+```go
+oauth2Auth := security.NewMicrosoftAuthenticator(
+    "your-microsoft-client-id",
+    "your-microsoft-client-secret",
+    "http://localhost:8080/auth/microsoft/callback",
+    db,
+)
+```
+
+### 5. Facebook OAuth2
+
+```go
+oauth2Auth := security.NewFacebookAuthenticator(
+    "your-facebook-client-id",
+    "your-facebook-client-secret",
+    "http://localhost:8080/auth/facebook/callback",
+    db,
+)
+```
+
+## Custom OAuth2 Provider
+
+```go
+oauth2Auth := security.NewDatabaseAuthenticator(db).WithOAuth2(security.OAuth2Config{
+    ClientID:     "your-client-id",
+    ClientSecret: "your-client-secret",
+    RedirectURL:  "http://localhost:8080/auth/callback",
+    Scopes:       []string{"openid", "profile", "email"},
+    AuthURL:      "https://your-provider.com/oauth/authorize",
+    TokenURL:     "https://your-provider.com/oauth/token",
+    UserInfoURL:  "https://your-provider.com/oauth/userinfo",
+    DB:           db,
+    ProviderName: "custom",
+
+    // Optional: Custom user info parser
+    UserInfoParser: func(userInfo map[string]any) (*security.UserContext, error) {
+        return &security.UserContext{
+            UserName:  userInfo["username"].(string),
+            Email:     userInfo["email"].(string),

+            Claims:    userInfo,
+        }, nil
+    },
+})
+```
+
+## Protected Routes
+
+```go
+// Create security provider
+colSec := security.NewDatabaseColumnSecurityProvider(db)
+rowSec := security.NewDatabaseRowSecurityProvider(db)
+provider, _ := security.NewCompositeSecurityProvider(oauth2Auth, colSec, rowSec)

+    userCtx, _ := security.GetUserContext(r.Context())
+    json.NewEncoder(w).Encode(userCtx)
+})
+```
+
+## Token Refresh
+
+OAuth2 access tokens expire after a period of time. Use the refresh token to obtain a new access token without requiring the user to log in again.
+
+```go
+router.HandleFunc("/auth/refresh", func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {

+        Provider     string `json:"provider"` // "google", "github", etc.
+    }
+    json.NewDecoder(r.Body).Decode(&req)
+
+    // Default to google if not specified
+    if req.Provider == "" {
+        req.Provider = "google"
+    }
+
+    // Use OAuth2-specific refresh method
+    loginResp, err := oauth2Auth.OAuth2RefreshToken(r.Context(), req.RefreshToken, req.Provider)
+    if err != nil {
+        http.Error(w, err.Error(), http.StatusUnauthorized)
+        return
+    }
+
+    // Set new session cookie
+    http.SetCookie(w, &http.Cookie{
+        Name:     "session_token",
+        Value:    loginResp.Token,
+        Path:     "/",
+        MaxAge:   int(loginResp.ExpiresIn),
+        HttpOnly: true,
+        Secure:   true,
+    })
+
+    json.NewEncoder(w).Encode(loginResp)
+})
+```
+
+**Important Notes:**
+- The refresh token is returned in the `LoginResponse.RefreshToken` field after successful OAuth2 callback
+- Store the refresh token securely on the client side
+- Each provider must be configured with the appropriate scopes to receive a refresh token (e.g., `access_type=offline` for Google)
+- The `OAuth2RefreshToken` method requires the provider name to identify which OAuth2 provider to use for refreshing
+
+## Logout
+
+```go
+router.HandleFunc("/auth/logout", func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
+    userCtx, _ := security.GetUserContext(r.Context())
+    
+    oauth2Auth.Logout(r.Context(), security.LogoutRequest{
+        Token:  userCtx.SessionID,
+        UserID: userCtx.UserID,
+    })
+
+    http.SetCookie(w, &http.Cookie{
+        Name:   "session_token",
+        Value:  "",
+        MaxAge: -1,
+    })
+
+    w.WriteHeader(http.StatusOK)
+})
+```
+
+## Multi-Provider Setup
+
+```go
+// Single DatabaseAuthenticator with ALL OAuth2 providers
+auth := security.NewDatabaseAuthenticator(db).
+    WithOAuth2(security.OAuth2Config{
+        ClientID:     "google-client-id",
+        ClientSecret: "google-client-secret",
+        RedirectURL:  "http://localhost:8080/auth/google/callback",
+        Scopes:       []string{"openid", "profile", "email"},
+        AuthURL:      "https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth",
+        TokenURL:     "https://oauth2.googleapis.com/token",
+        UserInfoURL:  "https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v2/userinfo",
+        ProviderName: "google",
+    }).
+    WithOAuth2(security.OAuth2Config{
+        ClientID:     "github-client-id",
+        ClientSecret: "github-client-secret",
+        RedirectURL:  "http://localhost:8080/auth/github/callback",
+        Scopes:       []string{"user:email"},
+        AuthURL:      "https://github.com/login/oauth/authorize",
+        TokenURL:     "https://github.com/login/oauth/access_token",
+        UserInfoURL:  "https://api.github.com/user",
+        ProviderName: "github",
+    })
+
+// Get list of configured providers
+providers := auth.OAuth2GetProviders() // ["google", "github"]
+
+// Google routes
+router.HandleFunc("/auth/google/login", func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
+    state, _ := auth.OAuth2GenerateState()
+    authURL, _ := auth.OAuth2GetAuthURL("google", state)
+    http.Redirect(w, r, authURL, http.StatusTemporaryRedirect)
+})
+
+router.HandleFunc("/auth/google/callback", func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
+    loginResp, err := auth.OAuth2HandleCallback(r.Context(), "google", 
+        r.URL.Query().Get("code"), r.URL.Query().Get("state"))
+    // ... handle response
+})
+
+// GitHub routes
+router.HandleFunc("/auth/github/login", func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
+    state, _ := auth.OAuth2GenerateState()
+    authURL, _ := auth.OAuth2GetAuthURL("github", state)
+    http.Redirect(w, r, authURL, http.StatusTemporaryRedirect)
+})
+
+router.HandleFunc("/auth/github/callback", func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
+    loginResp, err := auth.OAuth2HandleCallback(r.Context(), "github",
+        r.URL.Query().Get("code"), r.URL.Query().Get("state"))
+    // ... handle response
+})
+
+// Use same authenticator for protected routes - works for ALL providers
+provider, _ := security.NewCompositeSecurityProvider(auth, colSec, rowSec)
+securityList, _ := security.NewSecurityList(provider)
+```
+
+## Configuration Options
+
+### OAuth2Config Fields
+
+| Field | Type | Description |
+|-------|------|-------------|
+| ClientID | string | OAuth2 client ID from provider |
+| ClientSecret | string | OAuth2 client secret |
+| RedirectURL | string | Callback URL registered with provider |
+| Scopes | []string | OAuth2 scopes to request |
+| AuthURL | string | Provider's authorization endpoint |
+| TokenURL | string | Provider's token endpoint |
+| UserInfoURL | string | Provider's user info endpoint |
+| DB | *sql.DB | Database connection for sessions |
+| UserInfoParser | func | Custom parser for user info (optional) |
+| StateValidator | func | Custom state validator (optional) |
+| ProviderName | string | Provider name for logging (optional) |
+
+## User Info Parsing
+
+The default parser extracts these standard fields:
+- `sub` → RemoteID
+- `email` → Email, UserName
+- `name` → UserName
+- `login` → UserName (GitHub)
+
+Custom parser example:
+
+```go
+UserInfoParser: func(userInfo map[string]any) (*security.UserContext, error) {
+    // Extract custom fields
+    ctx := &security.UserContext{
+        UserName:  userInfo["preferred_username"].(string),
+        Email:     userInfo["email"].(string),
+        RemoteID:  userInfo["sub"].(string),
+        UserLevel: 1,
+        Roles:     []string{"user"},
+        Claims:    userInfo, // Store all claims
+    }
+
+    // Add custom roles based on provider data
+    if groups, ok := userInfo["groups"].([]interface{}); ok {
+        for _, g := range groups {
+            ctx.Roles = append(ctx.Roles, g.(string))
+        }
+    }
+
+    return ctx, nil
+}
+```
+
+## Security Best Practices
+
+1. **Always use HTTPS in production**
+   ```go
+   http.SetCookie(w, &http.Cookie{
+       Secure:   true,  // Only send over HTTPS
+       HttpOnly: true,  // Prevent XSS access
+       SameSite: http.SameSiteLaxMode, // CSRF protection
+   })
+   ```
+
+2. **Store secrets securely**
+   ```go
+   clientID := os.Getenv("GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID")
+   clientSecret := os.Getenv("GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET")
+   ```
+
+3. **Validate redirect URLs**
+   - Only register trusted redirect URLs with OAuth2 providers
+   - Never accept redirect URL from request parameters
+
+5. **Session expiration**
+   - OAuth2 sessions automatically expire based on token expiry
+   - Clean up expired sessions periodically:
+   ```sql
+   DELETE FROM user_sessions WHERE expires_at < NOW();
+   ```
+
+4. **State parameter**
+   - Automatically generated with cryptographic randomness
+   - One-time use and expires after 10 minutes
+   - Prevents CSRF attacks
+
+## Implementation Details
+
+All database operations use stored procedures for consistency and security:
+- `resolvespec_oauth_getorcreateuser` - Find or create OAuth2 user
+- `resolvespec_oauth_createsession` - Create OAuth2 session
+- `resolvespec_oauth_getsession` - Validate and retrieve session
+- `resolvespec_oauth_deletesession` - Logout/delete session
+- `resolvespec_oauth_getrefreshtoken` - Get session by refresh token
+- `resolvespec_oauth_updaterefreshtoken` - Update tokens after refresh
+- `resolvespec_oauth_getuser` - Get user data by ID
+
+## Provider Setup Guides
+
+### Google
+
+1. Go to [Google Cloud Console](https://console.cloud.google.com/)
+2. Create a new project or select existing
+3. Enable Google+ API
+4. Create OAuth 2.0 credentials
+5. Add authorized redirect URI: `http://localhost:8080/auth/google/callback`
+6. Copy Client ID and Client Secret
+
+### GitHub
+
+1. Go to [GitHub Developer Settings](https://github.com/settings/developers)
+2. Click "New OAuth App"
+3. Set Homepage URL: `http://localhost:8080`
+4. Set Authorization callback URL: `http://localhost:8080/auth/github/callback`
+5. Copy Client ID and Client Secret
+
+### Microsoft
+
+1. Go to [Azure Portal](https://portal.azure.com/)
+2. Register new application in Azure AD
+3. Add redirect URI: `http://localhost:8080/auth/microsoft/callback`
+4. Create client secret
+5. Copy Application (client) ID and secret value
+
+### Facebook
+
+1. Go to [Facebook Developers](https://developers.facebook.com/)
+2. Create new app
+3. Add Facebook Login product
+4. Set Valid OAuth Redirect URIs: `http://localhost:8080/auth/facebook/callback`
+5. Copy App ID and App Secret
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### "redirect_uri_mismatch" error
+- Ensure the redirect URL in code matches exactly with provider configuration
+- Include protocol (http/https), domain, port, and path
+
+### "invalid_client" error
+- Verify Client ID and Client Secret are correct
+- Check if credentials are for the correct environment (dev/prod)
+
+### "invalid_grant" error during token exchange
+- State parameter validation failed
+- Token might have expired
+- Check server time synchronization
+
+### User not created after successful OAuth2 login
+- Check database constraints (username/email unique)
+- Verify UserInfoParser is extracting required fields
+- Check database logs for constraint violations
+
+## Testing
+
+```go
+func TestOAuth2Flow(t *testing.T) {
+    // Mock database
+    db, mock, _ := sqlmock.New()
+    
+    oauth2Auth := security.NewGoogleAuthenticator(
+        "test-client-id",
+        "test-client-secret",
+        "http://localhost/callback",
+        db,
+    )
+
+    // Test state generation
+    state, err := oauth2Auth.GenerateState()
+    assert.NoError(t, err)
+    assert.NotEmpty(t, state)
+
+    // Test auth URL generation
+    authURL := oauth2Auth.GetAuthURL(state)
+    assert.Contains(t, authURL, "accounts.google.com")
+    assert.Contains(t, authURL, state)
+}
+```

+# OAuth2 Refresh Token - Quick Reference
+
+## Quick Setup (3 Steps)
+
+### 1. Initialize Authenticator
+```go
+auth := security.NewGoogleAuthenticator(
+    "client-id",
+    "client-secret", 
+    "http://localhost:8080/auth/google/callback",
+    db,
+)
+```
+
+### 2. OAuth2 Login Flow
+```go
+// Login - Redirect to Google
+router.HandleFunc("/auth/google/login", func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
+    state, _ := auth.OAuth2GenerateState()
+    authURL, _ := auth.OAuth2GetAuthURL("google", state)
+    http.Redirect(w, r, authURL, http.StatusTemporaryRedirect)
+})
+
+// Callback - Store tokens
+router.HandleFunc("/auth/google/callback", func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
+    loginResp, _ := auth.OAuth2HandleCallback(
+        r.Context(),
+        "google",
+        r.URL.Query().Get("code"),
+        r.URL.Query().Get("state"),
+    )
+    
+    // Save refresh_token on client
+    // loginResp.RefreshToken - Store this securely!
+    // loginResp.Token - Session token for API calls
+})
+```
+
+### 3. Refresh Endpoint
+```go
+router.HandleFunc("/auth/refresh", func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
+    var req struct {
+        RefreshToken string `json:"refresh_token"`
+    }
+    json.NewDecoder(r.Body).Decode(&req)
+    
+    // Refresh token
+    loginResp, err := auth.OAuth2RefreshToken(r.Context(), req.RefreshToken, "google")
+    if err != nil {
+        http.Error(w, err.Error(), 401)
+        return
+    }
+    
+    json.NewEncoder(w).Encode(loginResp)
+})
+```
+
+---
+
+## Multi-Provider Example
+
+```go
+// Configure multiple providers
+auth := security.NewDatabaseAuthenticator(db).
+    WithOAuth2(security.OAuth2Config{
+        ProviderName: "google",
+        ClientID:     "google-client-id",

+    
+    json.NewEncoder(w).Encode(loginResp)
+})
+```

+    } else {
+        // Refresh failed - redirect to login
+        window.location.href = '/login';
+    }
+}
+```

+
+## Database Stored Procedures
+
+- `resolvespec_oauth_getrefreshtoken(refresh_token)` - Get session by refresh token
+- `resolvespec_oauth_updaterefreshtoken(update_data)` - Update tokens after refresh
+- `resolvespec_oauth_getuser(user_id)` - Get user data
+
+All procedures return: `{p_success bool, p_error text, p_data jsonb}`
+
+---
+
+## Common Errors
+
+| Error | Cause | Solution |
+|-------|-------|----------|
+| `invalid or expired refresh token` | Token revoked/expired | Re-authenticate user |
+| `OAuth2 provider 'xxx' not found` | Provider not configured | Add with `WithOAuth2()` |
+| `failed to refresh token with provider` | Provider rejected request | Check credentials, re-auth user |
+
+---
+
+## Security Checklist
+
+- [ ] Use HTTPS for all OAuth2 endpoints
+- [ ] Store refresh tokens securely (HttpOnly cookies or encrypted storage)
+- [ ] Set cookie flags: `HttpOnly`, `Secure`, `SameSite=Strict`
+- [ ] Implement rate limiting on refresh endpoint
+- [ ] Log refresh attempts for audit
+- [ ] Rotate tokens on refresh
+- [ ] Revoke old sessions after successful refresh
+
+---
+
+## Testing
+
+```bash
+# 1. Login and get refresh token
+curl http://localhost:8080/auth/google/login
+# Follow OAuth2 flow, get refresh_token from callback response
+
+# 2. Refresh token
+curl -X POST http://localhost:8080/auth/refresh \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{"refresh_token":"ya29.xxx","provider":"google"}'
+
+# 3. Use new token
+curl http://localhost:8080/api/protected \
+  -H "Authorization: Bearer sess_abc123..."
+```
+
+---
+
+## Pre-configured Providers
+
+```go
+// Google
+auth := security.NewGoogleAuthenticator(clientID, secret, redirectURL, db)
+
+// GitHub  
+auth := security.NewGitHubAuthenticator(clientID, secret, redirectURL, db)
+
+// Microsoft
+auth := security.NewMicrosoftAuthenticator(clientID, secret, redirectURL, db)
+
+// Facebook
+auth := security.NewFacebookAuthenticator(clientID, secret, redirectURL, db)
+
+// All providers at once
+auth := security.NewMultiProviderAuthenticator(db, map[string]security.OAuth2Config{
+    "google": {...},
+    "github": {...},
+})
+```
+
+---
+
+## Provider-Specific Notes
+
+### Google
+- Add `access_type=offline` to get refresh token
+- Add `prompt=consent` to force consent screen
+```go
+authURL += "&access_type=offline&prompt=consent"
+```
+
+### GitHub
+- Refresh tokens not always provided
+- May need to request `offline_access` scope
+
+### Microsoft
+- Use `offline_access` scope for refresh token
+
+### Facebook
+- Tokens expire after 60 days by default
+- Check app settings for token expiration policy

+# OAuth2 Refresh Token Implementation
+
+## Overview
+
+OAuth2 refresh token functionality is **fully implemented** in the ResolveSpec security package. This allows refreshing expired access tokens without requiring users to re-authenticate.
+
+## Implementation Status: ✅ COMPLETE
+
+### Components Implemented
+
+1. **✅ Database Schema** - Tables and stored procedures
+2. **✅ Go Methods** - OAuth2RefreshToken implementation
+3. **✅ Thread Safety** - Mutex protection for provider map
+4. **✅ Examples** - Working code examples
+5. **✅ Documentation** - Complete API reference
+
+---
+
+## 1. Database Schema
+
+### Tables Modified
+
+```sql
+-- user_sessions table with OAuth2 token fields
+CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS user_sessions (
+    id SERIAL PRIMARY KEY,
+    session_token VARCHAR(500) NOT NULL UNIQUE,
+    user_id INTEGER NOT NULL REFERENCES users(id) ON DELETE CASCADE,
+    expires_at TIMESTAMP NOT NULL,
+    created_at TIMESTAMP DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
+    last_activity_at TIMESTAMP DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
+    ip_address VARCHAR(45),

+
+---
+
+## 2. Go Implementation
+
+### Method Signature
+
+```go
+func (a *DatabaseAuthenticator) OAuth2RefreshToken(
+    ctx context.Context,
+    refreshToken string,
+    providerName string,
+) (*LoginResponse, error)
+```
+
+**Location:** `pkg/security/oauth2_methods.go:375`
+
+### Implementation Flow
+
+```
+1. Validate provider exists
+   ├─ getOAuth2Provider(providerName) with RLock
+   └─ Return error if provider not configured
+
+2. Get session from database
+   ├─ Call resolvespec_oauth_getrefreshtoken(refreshToken)
+   └─ Parse session data {user_id, access_token, token_type, expiry}
+
+3. Refresh token with OAuth2 provider
+   ├─ Create oauth2.Token from stored data
+   ├─ Use provider.config.TokenSource(ctx, oldToken)
+   └─ Call tokenSource.Token() to get new token
+
+4. Generate new session token
+   └─ Use OAuth2GenerateState() for secure random token
+
+5. Update database
+   ├─ Call resolvespec_oauth_updaterefreshtoken()
+   └─ Store new session_token, access_token, refresh_token
+
+6. Get user data
+   ├─ Call resolvespec_oauth_getuser(user_id)
+   └─ Build UserContext
+
+7. Return LoginResponse
+   └─ {Token, RefreshToken, User, ExpiresIn}
+```
+
+### Thread Safety
+
+**Mutex Protection:** All access to `oauth2Providers` map is protected with `sync.RWMutex`
+
+```go
+type DatabaseAuthenticator struct {
+    oauth2Providers      map[string]*OAuth2Provider
+    oauth2ProvidersMutex sync.RWMutex  // Thread-safe access
+}
+
+// Read operations use RLock
+func (a *DatabaseAuthenticator) getOAuth2Provider(name string) {
+    a.oauth2ProvidersMutex.RLock()
+    defer a.oauth2ProvidersMutex.RUnlock()
+    // ... access map
+}
+
+// Write operations use Lock
+func (a *DatabaseAuthenticator) WithOAuth2(cfg OAuth2Config) {
+    a.oauth2ProvidersMutex.Lock()
+    defer a.oauth2ProvidersMutex.Unlock()
+    // ... modify map
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+## 3. Usage Examples
+
+### Single Provider (Google)
+
+```go
+package main
+
+import (
+    "database/sql"
+    "encoding/json"
+    "net/http"
+    "github.com/bitechdev/ResolveSpec/pkg/security"
+    "github.com/gorilla/mux"
+)
+
+func main() {
+    db, _ := sql.Open("postgres", "connection-string")
+    
+    // Create Google OAuth2 authenticator
+    auth := security.NewGoogleAuthenticator(
+        "your-client-id",
+        "your-client-secret",
+        "http://localhost:8080/auth/google/callback",
+        db,
+    )
+    
+    router := mux.NewRouter()
+    
+    // Token refresh endpoint
+    router.HandleFunc("/auth/refresh", func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
+        var req struct {
+            RefreshToken string `json:"refresh_token"`
+        }
+        json.NewDecoder(r.Body).Decode(&req)
+        
+        // Refresh token (provider name defaults to "google")
+        loginResp, err := auth.OAuth2RefreshToken(r.Context(), req.RefreshToken, "google")
+        if err != nil {
+            http.Error(w, err.Error(), http.StatusUnauthorized)
+            return
+        }
+        
+        // Set new session cookie
+        http.SetCookie(w, &http.Cookie{
+            Name:     "session_token",
+            Value:    loginResp.Token,
+            Path:     "/",
+            MaxAge:   int(loginResp.ExpiresIn),
+            HttpOnly: true,
+            Secure:   true,
+        })
+        
+        json.NewEncoder(w).Encode(loginResp)
+    })
+    
+    http.ListenAndServe(":8080", router)
+}
+```
+
+### Multi-Provider Setup
+
+```go
+// Single authenticator with multiple OAuth2 providers
+auth := security.NewDatabaseAuthenticator(db).
+    WithOAuth2(security.OAuth2Config{
+        ClientID:     "google-client-id",
+        ClientSecret: "google-client-secret",
+        RedirectURL:  "http://localhost:8080/auth/google/callback",
+        Scopes:       []string{"openid", "profile", "email"},
+        AuthURL:      "https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth",
+        TokenURL:     "https://oauth2.googleapis.com/token",
+        UserInfoURL:  "https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v2/userinfo",
+        ProviderName: "google",
+    }).
+    WithOAuth2(security.OAuth2Config{
+        ClientID:     "github-client-id",
+        ClientSecret: "github-client-secret",
+        RedirectURL:  "http://localhost:8080/auth/github/callback",
+        Scopes:       []string{"user:email"},
+        AuthURL:      "https://github.com/login/oauth/authorize",
+        TokenURL:     "https://github.com/login/oauth/access_token",
+        UserInfoURL:  "https://api.github.com/user",
+        ProviderName: "github",
+    })
+
+// Refresh endpoint with provider selection
+router.HandleFunc("/auth/refresh", func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
+    var req struct {
+        RefreshToken string `json:"refresh_token"`
+        Provider     string `json:"provider"` // "google" or "github"
+    }
+    json.NewDecoder(r.Body).Decode(&req)
+    
+    // Refresh with specific provider
+    loginResp, err := auth.OAuth2RefreshToken(r.Context(), req.RefreshToken, req.Provider)
+    if err != nil {
+        http.Error(w, err.Error(), http.StatusUnauthorized)
+        return
+    }
+    
+    json.NewEncoder(w).Encode(loginResp)
+})
+```
+
+### Client-Side Usage
+
+```javascript
+// JavaScript client example
+async function refreshAccessToken() {
+    const refreshToken = localStorage.getItem('refresh_token');
+    const provider = localStorage.getItem('auth_provider'); // "google", "github", etc.
+    
+    const response = await fetch('/auth/refresh', {
+        method: 'POST',
+        headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' },
+        body: JSON.stringify({
+            refresh_token: refreshToken,
+            provider: provider
+        })
+    });
+    
+    if (response.ok) {
+        const data = await response.json();
+        
+        // Store new tokens
+        localStorage.setItem('access_token', data.token);
+        localStorage.setItem('refresh_token', data.refresh_token);
+        
+        console.log('Token refreshed successfully');
+        return data.token;
+    } else {
+        // Refresh failed - redirect to login

+## 4. API Reference
+
+### DatabaseAuthenticator Methods
+
+| Method | Signature | Description |
+|--------|-----------|-------------|
+| `OAuth2RefreshToken` | `(ctx, refreshToken, provider) (*LoginResponse, error)` | Refreshes expired OAuth2 access token |
+| `WithOAuth2` | `(cfg OAuth2Config) *DatabaseAuthenticator` | Adds OAuth2 provider (chainable) |
+| `OAuth2GetAuthURL` | `(provider, state) (string, error)` | Gets authorization URL |
+| `OAuth2HandleCallback` | `(ctx, provider, code, state) (*LoginResponse, error)` | Handles OAuth2 callback |
+| `OAuth2GenerateState` | `() (string, error)` | Generates CSRF state token |
+| `OAuth2GetProviders` | `() []string` | Lists configured providers |
+
+### LoginResponse Structure
+
+```go
+type LoginResponse struct {
+    Token        string       // New session token
+    RefreshToken string       // New refresh token (may be same as input)
+    User         *UserContext // User information
+    ExpiresIn    int64        // Seconds until expiration
+}
+
+type UserContext struct {
+    UserID    int      // Database user ID
+    UserName  string   // Username
+    Email     string   // Email address
+    UserLevel int      // Permission level
+    SessionID string   // Session token
+    RemoteID  string   // OAuth2 provider user ID
+    Roles     []string // User roles
+    Claims    map[string]any // Additional claims
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+## 5. Important Notes
+
+### Provider Configuration
+
+**For Google:** Add `access_type=offline` to get refresh token on first login:
+
+```go
+auth := security.NewGoogleAuthenticator(clientID, clientSecret, redirectURL, db)
+// When generating auth URL, add access_type parameter
+authURL, _ := auth.OAuth2GetAuthURL("google", state)
+authURL += "&access_type=offline&prompt=consent"
+```
+
+**For GitHub:** Refresh tokens are not always provided. Check provider documentation.
+
+### Token Storage
+
+- Store refresh tokens securely on client (localStorage, secure cookie, etc.)
+- Never log refresh tokens
+- Refresh tokens are long-lived (days/months depending on provider)
+- Access tokens are short-lived (minutes/hours)
+
+### Error Handling
+
+Common errors:
+- `"invalid or expired refresh token"` - Token expired or revoked
+- `"OAuth2 provider 'xxx' not found"` - Provider not configured
+- `"failed to refresh token with provider"` - Provider rejected refresh request
+
+### Security Best Practices
+
+1. **Always use HTTPS** for token transmission
+2. **Store refresh tokens securely** on client
+3. **Set appropriate cookie flags**: `HttpOnly`, `Secure`, `SameSite`
+4. **Implement token rotation** - issue new refresh token on each refresh
+5. **Revoke old tokens** after successful refresh
+6. **Rate limit** refresh endpoints
+7. **Log refresh attempts** for audit trail
+
+---
+
+## 6. Testing
+
+### Manual Test Flow
+
+1. **Initial Login:**
+   ```bash
+   curl http://localhost:8080/auth/google/login
+   # Follow redirect to Google
+   # Returns to callback with LoginResponse containing refresh_token
+   ```
+
+2. **Wait for Token Expiry (or manually expire in DB)**
+
+3. **Refresh Token:**
+   ```bash
+   curl -X POST http://localhost:8080/auth/refresh \
+     -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+     -d '{
+       "refresh_token": "ya29.a0AfH6SMB...",
+       "provider": "google"
+     }'
+   
+   # Response:
+   {
+     "token": "sess_abc123...",
+     "refresh_token": "ya29.a0AfH6SMB...",
+     "user": {
+       "user_id": 1,
+       "user_name": "john_doe",
+       "email": "john@example.com",
+       "session_id": "sess_abc123..."
+     },
+     "expires_in": 3600
+   }
+   ```
+
+4. **Use New Token:**
+   ```bash
+   curl http://localhost:8080/api/protected \
+     -H "Authorization: Bearer sess_abc123..."
+   ```
+
+### Database Verification
+
+```sql
+-- Check session with refresh token
+SELECT session_token, user_id, expires_at, refresh_token, auth_provider
+FROM user_sessions
+WHERE refresh_token = 'ya29.a0AfH6SMB...';
+
+-- Verify token was updated after refresh
+SELECT session_token, access_token, refresh_token, 
+       expires_at, last_activity_at
+FROM user_sessions
+WHERE user_id = 1
+ORDER BY created_at DESC
+LIMIT 1;
+```
+
+---
+
+## 7. Troubleshooting
+
+### "Refresh token not found or expired"
+
+**Cause:** Refresh token doesn't exist in database or session expired
+
+**Solution:**
+- Check if initial OAuth2 login stored refresh token
+- Verify provider returns refresh token (some require `access_type=offline`)
+- Check session hasn't been deleted from database
+
+### "Failed to refresh token with provider"
+
+**Cause:** OAuth2 provider rejected the refresh request
+
+**Possible reasons:**
+- Refresh token was revoked by user
+- OAuth2 app credentials changed
+- Network connectivity issues
+- Provider rate limiting
+
+**Solution:**
+- Re-authenticate user (full OAuth2 flow)
+- Check provider dashboard for app status
+- Verify client credentials are correct
+
+### "OAuth2 provider 'xxx' not found"
+
+**Cause:** Provider not registered with `WithOAuth2()`
+
+**Solution:**
+```go
+// Make sure provider is configured
+auth := security.NewDatabaseAuthenticator(db).
+    WithOAuth2(security.OAuth2Config{
+        ProviderName: "google", // This name must match refresh call
+        // ... other config
+    })
+
+// Then use same name in refresh
+auth.OAuth2RefreshToken(ctx, token, "google") // Must match ProviderName
+```

+# Passkey Authentication Quick Reference
+
+## Overview
+Passkey authentication (WebAuthn/FIDO2) is now integrated into the DatabaseAuthenticator. This provides passwordless authentication using biometrics, security keys, or device credentials.
+
+## Setup
+
+### Database Schema
+Run the passkey SQL schema (in database_schema.sql):
+- Creates `user_passkey_credentials` table
+- Adds stored procedures for passkey operations
+
+### Go Code
+```go
+// Create passkey provider
+passkeyProvider := security.NewDatabasePasskeyProvider(db, 
+    security.DatabasePasskeyProviderOptions{
+        RPID:     "example.com",
+        RPName:   "Example App",
+        RPOrigin: "https://example.com",
+        Timeout:  60000,
+    })
+
+// Create authenticator with passkey support
+auth := security.NewDatabaseAuthenticatorWithOptions(db, 
+    security.DatabaseAuthenticatorOptions{
+        PasskeyProvider: passkeyProvider,
+    })
+
+// Or add passkey to existing authenticator
+auth = security.NewDatabaseAuthenticator(db).WithPasskey(passkeyProvider)
+```
+
+## Registration Flow
+
+### Backend - Step 1: Begin Registration
+```go
+options, err := auth.BeginPasskeyRegistration(ctx, 
+    security.PasskeyBeginRegistrationRequest{
+        UserID:      1,
+        Username:    "alice",
+        DisplayName: "Alice Smith",
+    })
+// Send options to client as JSON
+```
+
+### Frontend - Step 2: Create Credential
+```javascript
+// Convert options from server
+options.challenge = base64ToArrayBuffer(options.challenge);
+options.user.id = base64ToArrayBuffer(options.user.id);
+
+// Create credential
+const credential = await navigator.credentials.create({
+    publicKey: options
+});
+
+// Send credential back to server
+```
+
+### Backend - Step 3: Complete Registration
+```go
+credential, err := auth.CompletePasskeyRegistration(ctx, 
+    security.PasskeyRegisterRequest{
+        UserID:            1,
+        Response:          clientResponse,
+        ExpectedChallenge: storedChallenge,
+        CredentialName:    "My iPhone",
+    })
+```
+
+## Authentication Flow
+
+### Backend - Step 1: Begin Authentication
+```go
+options, err := auth.BeginPasskeyAuthentication(ctx,
+    security.PasskeyBeginAuthenticationRequest{
+        Username: "alice", // Optional for resident key
+    })
+// Send options to client as JSON
+```
+
+### Frontend - Step 2: Get Credential
+```javascript
+// Convert options from server
+options.challenge = base64ToArrayBuffer(options.challenge);
+
+// Get credential
+const credential = await navigator.credentials.get({
+    publicKey: options
+});
+
+// Send assertion back to server
+```
+
+### Backend - Step 3: Complete Authentication
+```go
+loginResponse, err := auth.LoginWithPasskey(ctx,
+    security.PasskeyLoginRequest{
+        Response:          clientAssertion,
+        ExpectedChallenge: storedChallenge,
+        Claims: map[string]any{
+            "ip_address": "192.168.1.1",
+            "user_agent": "Mozilla/5.0...",
+        },
+    })
+// Returns session token and user info
+```
+
+## Credential Management
+
+### List Credentials
+```go
+credentials, err := auth.GetPasskeyCredentials(ctx, userID)
+```
+
+### Update Credential Name
+```go
+err := auth.UpdatePasskeyCredentialName(ctx, userID, credentialID, "New Name")
+```
+
+### Delete Credential
+```go
+err := auth.DeletePasskeyCredential(ctx, userID, credentialID)
+```
+
+## HTTP Endpoints Example
+
+### POST /api/passkey/register/begin
+Request: `{user_id, username, display_name}`
+Response: PasskeyRegistrationOptions
+
+### POST /api/passkey/register/complete
+Request: `{user_id, response, credential_name}`
+Response: PasskeyCredential
+
+### POST /api/passkey/login/begin
+Request: `{username}` (optional)
+Response: PasskeyAuthenticationOptions
+
+### POST /api/passkey/login/complete
+Request: `{response}`
+Response: LoginResponse with session token
+
+### GET /api/passkey/credentials
+Response: Array of PasskeyCredential
+
+### DELETE /api/passkey/credentials/{id}
+Request: `{credential_id}`
+Response: 204 No Content
+
+## Database Stored Procedures
+
+- `resolvespec_passkey_store_credential` - Store new credential
+- `resolvespec_passkey_get_credential` - Get credential by ID
+- `resolvespec_passkey_get_user_credentials` - Get all user credentials
+- `resolvespec_passkey_update_counter` - Update sign counter (clone detection)
+- `resolvespec_passkey_delete_credential` - Delete credential
+- `resolvespec_passkey_update_name` - Update credential name
+- `resolvespec_passkey_get_credentials_by_username` - Get credentials for login
+
+## Security Features
+
+- **Clone Detection**: Sign counter validation detects credential cloning
+- **Attestation Support**: Stores attestation type (none, indirect, direct)
+- **Transport Options**: Tracks authenticator transports (usb, nfc, ble, internal)
+- **Backup State**: Tracks if credential is backed up/synced
+- **User Verification**: Supports preferred/required user verification
+
+## Important Notes
+
+1. **WebAuthn Library**: Current implementation is simplified. For production, use a proper WebAuthn library like `github.com/go-webauthn/webauthn` for full verification.
+
+2. **Challenge Storage**: Store challenges securely in session/cache. Never expose challenges to client beyond initial request.
+
+3. **HTTPS Required**: Passkeys only work over HTTPS (except localhost).
+
+4. **Browser Support**: Check browser compatibility for WebAuthn API.
+
+5. **Relying Party ID**: Must match your domain exactly.
+
+## Client-Side Helper Functions
+
+```javascript
+function base64ToArrayBuffer(base64) {
+    const binary = atob(base64);
+    const bytes = new Uint8Array(binary.length);
+    for (let i = 0; i < binary.length; i++) {
+        bytes[i] = binary.charCodeAt(i);
+    }
+    return bytes.buffer;
+}
+
+function arrayBufferToBase64(buffer) {
+    const bytes = new Uint8Array(buffer);
+    let binary = '';
+    for (let i = 0; i < bytes.length; i++) {
+        binary += String.fromCharCode(bytes[i]);
+    }
+    return btoa(binary);
+}
+```
+
+## Testing
+
+Run tests: `go test -v ./pkg/security -run Passkey`
+
+All passkey functionality includes comprehensive tests using sqlmock.

+## Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)
+
+### Overview
+
+- **Optional per-user** - Enable/disable 2FA individually
+- **TOTP standard** - Compatible with Google Authenticator, Microsoft Authenticator, Authy, 1Password, etc.
+- **Configurable** - SHA1/SHA256/SHA512, 6/8 digits, custom time periods
+- **Backup codes** - One-time recovery codes with secure hashing
+- **Clock skew** - Handles time differences between client/server
+
+### Setup
+
+```go
+// 1. Wrap existing authenticator with 2FA support
+baseAuth := security.NewDatabaseAuthenticator(db)
+tfaProvider := security.NewMemoryTwoFactorProvider(nil) // Use custom DB implementation in production
+tfaAuth := security.NewTwoFactorAuthenticator(baseAuth, tfaProvider, nil)
+
+// 2. Use as normal authenticator
+provider := security.NewCompositeSecurityProvider(tfaAuth, colSec, rowSec)
+securityList := security.NewSecurityList(provider)
+```
+
+### Enable 2FA for User
+
+```go
+// 1. Initiate 2FA setup
+secret, err := tfaAuth.Setup2FA(userID, "MyApp", "user@example.com")
+// Returns: secret.Secret, secret.QRCodeURL, secret.BackupCodes
+
+// 2. User scans QR code with authenticator app
+// Display secret.QRCodeURL as QR code image
+
+// 3. User enters verification code from app
+code := "123456" // From authenticator app
+err = tfaAuth.Enable2FA(userID, secret.Secret, code)
+// 2FA is now enabled for this user
+
+// 4. Store backup codes securely and show to user once
+// Display: secret.BackupCodes (10 codes)
+```
+
+### Login Flow with 2FA
+
+```go
+// 1. User provides credentials
+req := security.LoginRequest{
+    Username: "user@example.com",
+    Password: "password",
+}
+
+resp, err := tfaAuth.Login(ctx, req)
+
+// 2. Check if 2FA required
+if resp.Requires2FA {
+    // Prompt user for 2FA code
+    code := getUserInput() // From authenticator app or backup code
+    
+    // 3. Login again with 2FA code
+    req.TwoFactorCode = code
+    resp, err = tfaAuth.Login(ctx, req)
+    
+    // 4. Success - token is returned
+    token := resp.Token
+}
+```
+
+### Manage 2FA
+
+```go
+// Disable 2FA
+err := tfaAuth.Disable2FA(userID)
+
+// Regenerate backup codes
+newCodes, err := tfaAuth.RegenerateBackupCodes(userID, 10)
+
+// Check status
+has2FA, err := tfaProvider.Get2FAStatus(userID)
+```
+
+### Custom 2FA Storage
+
+**Option 1: Use DatabaseTwoFactorProvider (Recommended)**
+
+```go
+// Uses PostgreSQL stored procedures for all operations
+db := setupDatabase()
+
+// Run migrations from totp_database_schema.sql
+// - Add totp_secret, totp_enabled, totp_enabled_at to users table
+// - Create user_totp_backup_codes table
+// - Create resolvespec_totp_* stored procedures
+
+tfaProvider := security.NewDatabaseTwoFactorProvider(db, nil)
+tfaAuth := security.NewTwoFactorAuthenticator(baseAuth, tfaProvider, nil)
+```
+
+**Option 2: Implement Custom Provider**
+
+Implement `TwoFactorAuthProvider` for custom storage:
+
+```go
+type DBTwoFactorProvider struct {
+    db *gorm.DB
+}
+
+func (p *DBTwoFactorProvider) Enable2FA(userID int, secret string, backupCodes []string) error {
+    // Store secret and hashed backup codes in database
+    return p.db.Exec("UPDATE users SET totp_secret = ?, backup_codes = ? WHERE id = ?", 
+        secret, hashCodes(backupCodes), userID).Error
+}
+
+func (p *DBTwoFactorProvider) Get2FASecret(userID int) (string, error) {
+    var secret string
+    err := p.db.Raw("SELECT totp_secret FROM users WHERE id = ?", userID).Scan(&secret).Error
+    return secret, err
+}
+
+// Implement remaining methods: Generate2FASecret, Validate2FACode, Disable2FA,
+// Get2FAStatus, GenerateBackupCodes, ValidateBackupCode
+```
+
+### Configuration
+
+```go
+config := &security.TwoFactorConfig{
+    Algorithm:  "SHA256",  // SHA1, SHA256, SHA512
+    Digits:     8,         // 6 or 8
+    Period:     30,        // Seconds per code
+    SkewWindow: 2,         // Accept codes ±2 periods
+}
+
+totp := security.NewTOTPGenerator(config)
+tfaAuth := security.NewTwoFactorAuthenticator(baseAuth, tfaProvider, config)
+```
+
+### API Response Structure
+
+```go
+// LoginResponse with 2FA
+type LoginResponse struct {
+    Token              string              `json:"token"`
+    Requires2FA        bool                `json:"requires_2fa"`
+    TwoFactorSetupData *TwoFactorSecret    `json:"two_factor_setup,omitempty"`
+    User               *UserContext        `json:"user"`
+}
+
+// TwoFactorSecret for setup
+type TwoFactorSecret struct {
+    Secret      string   `json:"secret"`         // Base32 encoded
+    QRCodeURL   string   `json:"qr_code_url"`    // otpauth://totp/...
+    BackupCodes []string `json:"backup_codes"`   // 10 recovery codes
+}
+
+// UserContext includes 2FA status
+type UserContext struct {
+    UserID           int    `json:"user_id"`
+    TwoFactorEnabled bool   `json:"two_factor_enabled"`
+    // ... other fields
+}
+```
+
+### Security Best Practices
+
+- **Store secrets encrypted** - Never store TOTP secrets in plain text
+- **Hash backup codes** - Use SHA-256 before storing
+- **Rate limit** - Limit 2FA verification attempts
+- **Require password** - Always verify password before disabling 2FA
+- **Show backup codes once** - Display only during setup/regeneration
+- **Log 2FA events** - Track enable/disable/failed attempts
+- **Mark codes as used** - Backup codes are single-use only
