The Likes API exposes a single endpoint that returns every user who has sent you a like but whom you have not yet liked back — meaning no mutual match exists yet. This powers the LikesScreen in the Debuta mobile app, which lets users browse their admirers and decide whether to like them back (creating a match) or ignore them. The server queries the Match collection for documents where:
  1. The current user is in the usuarios array.
  2. esMatch is false — no mutual match yet.
  3. Another user’s like record points to the current user (like.para === me).
  4. The current user has not sent a like of their own in that document (like.de !== me).

Example

  -H "Authorization: Bearer eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9..."

​
Acting on a like

To like someone back and create a mutual match, call POST /api/matches/like/:targetId with the usuario.id value from this response: 
curl -X POST https://api.debuta.app/api/matches/like/64f1a2b3c4d5e6f7a8b9c0d1 \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9..."
A successful mutual like returns { "esMatch": true, ... } and emits a match:nuevo Socket.io event to both users.
The LikesScreen in the mobile app polls this endpoint on focus to refresh the list. Users who have already been responded to (liked back or disliked) will no longer appear here because the underlying Match document will either have esMatch: true or a dislike entry from the current user.
