Repository placement should prevent domain models from reaching outward for data.
Placement Rules
-
Aggregate code: no repository dependencies.
-
Application/use-case layer: depends on repository interfaces and orchestrates loading/saving.
-
Domain layer: may define repository abstractions only when the project convention treats them as domain contracts, but aggregates still must not call them.
-
Infrastructure/interface adapters: implement repositories using databases, APIs, or files.
Workflow
-
Find repository interfaces, implementations, and all call sites.
-
Move calls from domain objects into use cases or domain services invoked by use cases.
-
Keep persistence mapping outside aggregates.
-
Align package placement with the project's architecture style.
Detailed Reference
For non-trivial implementation, review, or refactoring work, read references/details.md before giving final guidance. It contains the detailed rules, examples, smells, and migration notes that do not belong in the short invocation body.
Output
Return a placement map, violations, corrected dependencies, and file moves.
