Based on my exploration, I need to fix three issues in PR #6979:

Context from Exploration:

Issue 1: Error Handling Type Safety

Location: src/modules/kbv-ti-connect/main/ti-connect.ts - Lines 120-135: In trackCertificateType() function, error handler uses unsafe (error as Error).message and (error as Error).name - Lines 184-189: In error handler, uses error as Error cast

Current Code (lines 120-135):

} catch (error) {
  const tiEnvironment = TiEnvRepository.tiEnvValue || 'UNKNOWN'
  tiConnectEventObservability.send({
    traceId,
    functionName: 'onTiConnectDecryptKeyStoreListener',
    operation: 'read',
    direction: 'output',
    data: JSON.stringify({
      tiEnvironment: tiEnvironment,
      error: true,
      errorMessage: (error as Error).message,  // UNSAFE
      errorName: (error as Error).name,        // UNSAFE
    }),
  })
}

Issue 2: Algorithm Mapping Edge Case

Location: src/modules/gematik-crypto/services/utils/jwaMapper.ts

The 'none' algorithm currently returns { certificateType: 'RSA', curveName: 'unknown' } but RSA doesn't use curves - only ECC does.

Current Code:

if (jwa === 'none') {
  return { certificateType: 'RSA', curveName: 'unknown' }
}

Issue 3: Missing JSDoc

Location: src/modules/gematik-crypto/services/utils/jwaMapper.ts

export interface CertificateInfo {
  certificateType: 'ECC' | 'RSA'
  curveName?: string
}

This interface lacks JSDoc documentation explaining what it's for and when curveName is present.

Requirements:

1. Fix error handling to use instanceof Error checks instead of unsafe type casts
2. Fix algorithm mapping so 'none' doesn't set curveName (RSA should never have curveName)
3. Add JSDoc to CertificateInfo interface
4. Update tests if needed to reflect the 'none' algorithm fix

Please design an implementation plan that addresses all three issues safely without breaking existing functionality.

I'll explore the codebase to understand the current implementation and design a comprehensive fix for all three issues.

Now I have enough context. Let me create a comprehensive implementation plan. Based on my exploration, I have identified:

Analysis Summary

Issue 1: Unsafe Error Type Casting

Location: /Users/USER/workspace/doctolib/FHIR-1996_track-ecc-rsa-certificate-usage/src/modules/kbv-ti-connect/main/ti-connect.ts (lines 120-135 and 184-189)

The code uses unsafe type assertions (error as Error).message and (error as Error).name. Looking at the codebase patterns: - Line 191 in src/modules/kbv-ti-connect/services/index.ts shows the correct pattern: error instanceof Error ? error : new Error(String(error)) - Lines 97-98 in src/modules/ehr-exports/services/encrypted-fields-decryption-stream.ts show: error instanceof Error ? error.message : String(error)

Issue 2: Algorithm Mapping Logic Error

Location: /Users/USER/workspace/doctolib/FHIR-1996_track-ecc-rsa-certificate-usage/src/modules/gematik-crypto/services/utils/jwaMapper.ts (lines 45-51)

The 'none' algorithm returns { certificateType: 'RSA', curveName: 'unknown' } but RSA certificates never have curves - only ECC certificates do. The curveName should be omitted for RSA.

Issue 3: Missing JSDoc

Location: /Users/USER/workspace/doctolib/FHIR-1996_track-ecc-rsa-certificate-usage/src/modules/gematik-crypto/services/utils/jwaMapper.ts (lines 5-8)

The CertificateInfo interface lacks documentation explaining when curveName is present.

Implementation Plan

Step 1: Fix Error Handling in ti-connect.ts

Location: Lines 120-135 in trackCertificateType() function

Current unsafe code:

errorMessage: (error as Error).message,
errorName: (error as Error).name,

Safe replacement pattern (following codebase conventions):

errorMessage: error instanceof Error ? error.message : String(error),
errorName: error instanceof Error ? error.name : 'UnknownError',

Location: Lines 184-189 in onTiConnectDecryptKeyStoreListener()

Current unsafe code:

extra: extraLogParser({
  traceId: event.processId,
  error: error as Error,
}),

Safe replacement (following the pattern from index.ts:191):

extra: extraLogParser({
  traceId: event.processId,
  error: error instanceof Error ? error : new Error(String(error)),
}),

Step 2: Fix 'none' Algorithm Mapping

Location: /Users/USER/workspace/doctolib/FHIR-1996_track-ecc-rsa-certificate-usage/src/modules/gematik-crypto/services/utils/jwaMapper.ts (lines 45-51)

Current problematic code:

if (jwa === 'none') {
  return {
    certificateType: 'RSA',
    curveName: 'unknown',
  }
}

Fixed code (RSA should never have curveName):

if (jwa === 'none') {
  return { certificateType: 'RSA' }
}

Rationale: RSA certificates use modular arithmetic, not elliptic curves. Only ECC certificates have curves. Setting curveName: 'unknown' for RSA is semantically incorrect.

Step 3: Update Test for 'none' Algorithm

Location: /Users/USER/workspace/doctolib/FHIR-1996_track-ecc-rsa-certificate-usage/src/modules/gematik-crypto/services/utils/__tests__/jwaMapper.test.ts (lines 53-58)

Current test expecting wrong behavior:

it('handles none algorithm as unknown RSA', () => {
  expect(JWAMapper.mapJWAToCertificateInfo('none')).toEqual({
    certificateType: 'RSA',
    curveName: 'unknown',
  })
})

Updated test:

it('handles none algorithm as RSA without curve', () => {
  expect(JWAMapper.mapJWAToCertificateInfo('none')).toEqual({
    certificateType: 'RSA',
  })
})

Step 4: Add JSDoc to CertificateInfo Interface

Location: /Users/USER/workspace/doctolib/FHIR-1996_track-ecc-rsa-certificate-usage/src/modules/gematik-crypto/services/utils/jwaMapper.ts (lines 1-8)

Current code:

/**
 * Maps JWA (JSON Web Algorithm) strings to certificate tracking format
 * Used to convert JWSUtils output to Datadog tracking events
 */
export interface CertificateInfo {
  certificateType: 'ECC' | 'RSA'
  curveName?: string
}

Enhanced with proper JSDoc:

/**
 * Maps JWA (JSON Web Algorithm) strings to certificate tracking format
 * Used to convert JWSUtils output to Datadog tracking events
 */

/**
 * Certificate information extracted from JWA algorithm
 * @property certificateType - The type of certificate: ECC (Elliptic Curve Cryptography) or RSA
 * @property curveName - The elliptic curve name (e.g., 'brainpoolP256r1', 'P-256'). 
 *                       Only present for ECC certificates. RSA certificates do not have curves.
 */
export interface CertificateInfo {
  certificateType: 'ECC' | 'RSA'
  curveName?: string
}

Implementation Sequence

1. Fix ti-connect.ts error handling (2 locations) - Lines 132-133: Replace unsafe type casts with instanceof checks - Line 189: Replace unsafe cast with proper error conversion

2. Fix jwaMapper.ts 'none' algorithm - Remove curveName from 'none' algorithm return value

3. Update jwaMapper.test.ts - Update test expectation to match corrected behavior

4. Add JSDoc to CertificateInfo - Document when curveName is present vs absent

Testing Strategy

1. Run existing tests to ensure no regressions: ```bash npm test src/modules/gematik-crypto/services/utils/tests/jwaMapper.test.ts

2. **TypeScript compilation check**:
 ```bash
 tsc --noEmit

3. ESLint check: ```bash npm run lint:js

4. **Prettier check**:
 ```bash
 npm run format:check

Risk Assessment

Low Risk Changes: - Error handling fixes are defensive improvements with no behavioral changes - JSDoc addition is pure documentation

Medium Risk Changes: - The 'none' algorithm fix changes the data structure returned, but: - The 'none' algorithm is for unsigned tokens (no certificate) - It's an edge case that shouldn't occur in production - The CertificateInfo interface already has optional curveName, so consumers must handle its absence

Dependencies

No cross-file dependencies. All changes are localized to: 1. /Users/USER/workspace/doctolib/FHIR-1996_track-ecc-rsa-certificate-usage/src/modules/kbv-ti-connect/main/ti-connect.ts 2. /Users/USER/workspace/doctolib/FHIR-1996_track-ecc-rsa-certificate-usage/src/modules/gematik-crypto/services/utils/jwaMapper.ts 3. /Users/USER/workspace/doctolib/FHIR-1996_track-ecc-rsa-certificate-usage/src/modules/gematik-crypto/services/utils/__tests__/jwaMapper.test.ts
