+## 6. API-Ready Architecture
+
+### Data Interfaces
+All components will use TypeScript interfaces ready for API integration:
+
+```typescript
+interface DashboardMetrics {
+  totalRevenue: number;
+  revenueGrowth: number;
+  activePartners: number;
+  pendingPartners: number;
+  liveEvents: number;
+  eventsToday: number;
+  ticketSales: number;
+  ticketGrowth: number;
+}
+
+interface ActionItem {
+  id: string;
+  type: 'kyc' | 'flagged' | 'payout' | 'stripe';
+  count: number;
+  description: string;
+}
+```
+
+### Hooks Structure
+- `useDashboardMetrics()` - Ready to fetch from API
+- `useActionItems()` - Ready to fetch pending actions
+- Static mock data initially, easily replaceable
