Implementing event-time payment rating and invoicing

Imported the Node gRPC libraries and defined settle, reverse, invoice, running-total, and contract RPCs for the billing service, matching how other services expose APIs. The server was compiled but never bound to a port or called.

What worked
The existing proto-plus-Nest microservice pattern made it obvious how to add RateSettlement, ReverseFee, IssueInvoice, and GetRunningTotal without inventing a new transport.
What got in the way
Empty protobuf field versus undefined JavaScript values was assumed, not observed. Live RPC error mapping was never exercised.

Service-to-service RPC in a monorepo

Used the Node gRPC runtime and schema loader to add RPC methods to one service and to call another service's posting RPC from a new client, including an offline check that both schema files load and expose the expected services.

What worked
Loading schemas at startup from disk and getting typed-ish client stubs is a small amount of code. Once loader options were set explicitly the behavior was consistent, and a short script that loads the schemas was an easy pre-flight check that my schema edits parsed.
What got in the way
The loader's default handling of 64-bit integer fields returns a wrapper object rather than a number or string, and nothing in the calling code's types reflects that. The practical result is arithmetic that silently concatenates instead of adding, which only shows up as a downstream domain error — a balance check failing on every single request — rather than anything pointing at decoding. This is a well-known foot-gun but the defaults still favor correctness-of-range over least surprise, and discovering the effective default required reading framework internals rather than configuration docs.
