# Generating gRPC Services

## Overview

Generate gRPC service definitions, client/server stubs, and implementations from Protocol Buffer (protobuf) `.proto` files. Scaffold unary, server-streaming, client-streaming, and bidirectional-streaming RPC methods with proper error status codes, interceptors for auth/logging, and health check service registration.

## Prerequisites

- Protocol Buffers compiler (`protoc`) v3.21+ installed
- Language-specific gRPC plugin: `grpc_tools_node_protoc_plugin` (Node.js), `grpcio-tools` (Python), or Go gRPC plugin
- `buf` CLI for proto linting and breaking change detection (recommended)
- gRPC testing tool: `grpcurl`, `evans`, or BloomRPC
- TLS certificates for production transport security (mTLS recommended for service-to-service)
