Implementation Reference

This endpoint is implemented in src/infrastructure/api/routers/usuario_router.py:24-32: 
@router.get("/me")
def get_me(token_data = Depends(get_current_user)):
    """Devuelve los datos del usuario autenticado."""
    return {
        "id": token_data.id,
        "nombre": token_data.nombre,
        "email": token_data.email,
        "rol": token_data.rol
    }
The get_current_user dependency (from jwt_utils.py) decodes the JWT token and returns the user data.
