Follow these guidelines for building robust, maintainable systems. + +## MANDATORY THINKING PROCESS + +**BEFORE any implementation, you MUST:** + +1. **Show Your Analysis** - Always start by explaining: + * What DDD patterns and SOLID principles apply to the request. + * Which layer(s) will be affected (Domain/Application/Infrastructure). + * How the solution aligns with ubiquitous language. + * Security and compliance considerations. +2. **Review Against Guidelines** - Explicitly check: + * Does this follow DDD aggregate boundaries? + * Does the design adhere to the Single Responsibility Principle? + * Are domain rules encapsulated correctly? + * Will tests follow the `MethodName_Condition_ExpectedResult()` pattern? + * Are Coding domain considerations addressed? + * Is the ubiquitous language consistent? +3. **Validate Implementation Plan** - Before coding, state: + * Which aggregates/entities will be created/modified. + * What domain events will be published. + * How interfaces and classes will be structured according to SOLID principles. + * What tests will be needed and their naming. + +**If you cannot clearly explain these points, STOP and ask for clarification.** + +## Core Principles + +### 1. **Domain-Driven Design (DDD)** + +* **Ubiquitous Language**: Use consistent business terminology across code and documentation. +* **Bounded Contexts**: Clear service boundaries with well-defined responsibilities. +* **Aggregates**: Ensure consistency boundaries and transactional integrity. +* **Domain Events**: Capture and propagate business-significant occurrences. +* **Rich Domain Models**: Business logic belongs in the domain layer, not in application services. + +### 2. **SOLID Principles** + +* **Single Responsibility Principle (SRP)**: A class should have only one reason to change. +* **Open/Closed Principle (OCP)**: Software entities should be open for extension but closed for modification. +* **Liskov Substitution Principle (LSP)**: Subtypes must be substitutable for their base types. +* **Interface Segregation Principle (ISP)**: No client should be forced to depend on methods it does not use. +* **Dependency Inversion Principle (DIP)**: Depend on abstractions, not on concretions. + +### 3. **.NET Good Practices** + +* **Asynchronous Programming**: Use `async` and `await` for I/O-bound operations to ensure scalability. +* **Dependency Injection (DI)**: Leverage the built-in DI container to promote loose coupling and testability. +* **LINQ**: Use Language-Integrated Query for expressive and readable data manipulation. +* **Exception Handling**: Implement a clear and consistent strategy for handling and logging errors. +* **Modern C# Features**: Utilize modern language features (e.g., records, pattern matching) to write concise and robust code. + +### 4. **Security & Compliance** 🔒 + +* **Domain Security**: Implement authorization at the aggregate level. +* **Financial Regulations**: PCI-DSS, SOX compliance in domain rules. +* **Audit Trails**: Domain events provide a complete audit history. +* **Data Protection**: LGPD compliance in aggregate design. + +### 5. **Performance & Scalability** 🚀 + +* **Async Operations**: Non-blocking processing with `async`/`await`. +* **Optimized Data Access**: Efficient database queries and indexing strategies. +* **Caching Strategies**: Cache data appropriately, respecting data volatility. +* **Memory Efficiency**: Properly sized aggregates and value objects. + +## DDD & .NET Standards + +### Domain Layer + +* **Aggregates**: Root entities that maintain consistency boundaries. +* **Value Objects**: Immutable objects representing domain concepts. +* **Domain Services**: Stateless services for complex business operations involving multiple aggregates. +* **Domain Events**: Capture business-significant state changes. +* **Specifications**: Encapsulate complex business rules and queries. + +### Application Layer + +* **Application Services**: Orchestrate domain operations and coordinate with infrastructure. +* **Data Transfer Objects (DTOs)**: Transfer data between layers and across process boundaries. +* **Input Validation**: Validate all incoming data before executing business logic. +* **Dependency Injection**: Use constructor injection to acquire dependencies. + +### Infrastructure Layer + +* **Repositories**: Aggregate persistence and retrieval using interfaces defined in the domain layer. +* **Event Bus**: Publish and subscribe to domain events. +* **Data Mappers / ORMs**: Map domain objects to database schemas. +* **External Service Adapters**: Integrate with external systems. + +### Testing Standards + +* **Test Naming Convention**: Use `MethodName_Condition_ExpectedResult()` pattern. +* **Unit Tests**: Focus on domain logic and business rules in isolation. +* **Integration Tests**: Test aggregate boundaries, persistence, and service integrations. +* **Acceptance Tests**: Validate complete user scenarios. +* **Test Coverage**: Minimum 85% for domain and application layers. + +### Development Practices + +* **Event-First Design**: Model business processes as sequences of events. +* **Input Validation**: Validate DTOs and parameters in the application layer. +* **Domain Modeling**: Regular refinement through domain expert collaboration. +* **Continuous Integration**: Automated testing of all layers. + +## Implementation Guidelines + +When implementing solutions, **ALWAYS follow this process**: + +### Step 1: Domain Analysis (REQUIRED) + +**You MUST explicitly state:** + +* Domain concepts involved and their relationships. +* Aggregate boundaries and consistency requirements. +* Ubiquitous language terms being used. +* Business rules and invariants to enforce. + +### Step 2: Architecture Review (REQUIRED) + +**You MUST validate:** + +* How responsibilities are assigned to each layer. +* Adherence to SOLID principles, especially SRP and DIP. +* How domain events will be used for decoupling. +* Security implications at the aggregate level. + +### Step 3: Implementation Planning (REQUIRED) + +**You MUST outline:** + +* Files to be created/modified with justification. +* Test cases using `MethodName_Condition_ExpectedResult()` pattern. +* Error handling and validation strategy. +* Performance and scalability considerations. + +### Step 4: Implementation Execution + +1. **Start with domain modeling and ubiquitous language.** +2. **Define aggregate boundaries and consistency rules.** +3. **Implement application services with proper input validation.** +4. **Adhere to .NET good practices like async programming and DI.** +5. **Add comprehensive tests following naming conventions.** +6. **Implement domain events for loose coupling where appropriate.** +7. **Document domain decisions and trade-offs.** + +### Step 5: Post-Implementation Review (REQUIRED) + +**You MUST verify:** + +* All quality checklist items are met. +* Tests follow naming conventions and cover edge cases. +* Domain rules are properly encapsulated. +* Financial calculations maintain precision. +* Security and compliance requirements are satisfied. + +## Testing Guidelines + +### Test Structure + +```csharp +[Fact(DisplayName = "Descriptive test scenario")] +public void MethodName_Condition_ExpectedResult() +{ + // Setup for the test + var aggregate = CreateTestAggregate(); + var parameters = new TestParameters(); + + // Execution of the method under test + var result = aggregate.PerformAction(parameters); + + // Verification of the outcome + Assert.NotNull(result); + Assert.Equal(expectedValue, result.Value); +} +``` + +### Domain Test Categories + +* **Aggregate Tests**: Business rule validation and state changes. +* **Value Object Tests**: Immutability and equality. +* **Domain Service Tests**: Complex business operations. +* **Event Tests**: Event publishing and handling. +* **Application Service Tests**: Orchestration and input validation. + +### Test Validation Process (MANDATORY) + +**Before writing any test, you MUST:** + +1. **Verify naming follows pattern**: `MethodName_Condition_ExpectedResult()` +2. **Confirm test category**: Which type of test (Unit/Integration/Acceptance). +3. **Check domain alignment**: Test validates actual business rules. +4. **Review edge cases**: Includes error scenarios and boundary conditions. + +## Quality Checklist + +**MANDATORY VERIFICATION PROCESS**: Before delivering any code, you MUST explicitly confirm each item: + +### Domain Design Validation + +* **Domain Model**: "I have verified that aggregates properly model business concepts." +* **Ubiquitous Language**: "I have confirmed consistent terminology throughout the codebase." +* **SOLID Principles Adherence**: "I have verified the design follows SOLID principles." +* **Business Rules**: "I have validated that domain logic is encapsulated in aggregates." +* **Event Handling**: "I have confirmed domain events are properly published and handled." + +### Implementation Quality Validation + +* **Test Coverage**: "I have written comprehensive tests following `MethodName_Condition_ExpectedResult()` naming." +* **Performance**: "I have considered performance implications and ensured efficient processing." +* **Security**: "I have implemented authorization at aggregate boundaries." +* **Documentation**: "I have documented domain decisions and architectural choices." +* **.NET Best Practices**: "I have followed .NET best practices for async, DI, and error handling." + +### Financial Domain Validation + +* **Monetary Precision**: "I have used `decimal` types and proper rounding for financial calculations." +* **Transaction Integrity**: "I have ensured proper transaction boundaries and consistency." +* **Audit Trail**: "I have implemented complete audit capabilities through domain events." +* **Compliance**: "I have addressed PCI-DSS, SOX, and LGPD requirements." + +**If ANY item cannot be confirmed with certainty, you MUST explain why and request guidance.** + +### Monetary Values + +* Use `decimal` type for all monetary calculations. +* Implement currency-aware value objects. +* Handle rounding according to financial standards. +* Maintain precision throughout calculation chains. + +### Transaction Processing + +* Implement proper saga patterns for distributed transactions. +* Use domain events for eventual consistency. +* Maintain strong consistency within aggregate boundaries. +* Implement compensation patterns for rollback scenarios. + +### Audit and Compliance + +* Capture all financial operations as domain events. +* Implement immutable audit trails. +* Design aggregates to support regulatory reporting. +* Maintain data lineage for compliance audits. + +### Financial Calculations + +* Encapsulate calculation logic in domain services. +* Implement proper validation for financial rules. +* Use specifications for complex business criteria. +* Maintain calculation history for audit purposes. + +### Platform Integration + +* Use system standard DDD libraries and frameworks. +* Implement proper bounded context integration. +* Maintain backward compatibility in public contracts. +* Use domain events for cross-context communication. + +**Remember**: These guidelines apply to ALL projects and should be the foundation for designing robust, maintainable financial systems. + +## CRITICAL REMINDERS + +**YOU MUST ALWAYS:** + +* Show your thinking process before implementing. +* Explicitly validate against these guidelines. +* Use the mandatory verification statements. +* Follow the `MethodName_Condition_ExpectedResult()` test naming pattern. +* Confirm financial domain considerations are addressed. +* Stop and ask for clarification if any guideline is unclear. + +**FAILURE TO FOLLOW THIS PROCESS IS UNACCEPTABLE** - The user expects rigorous adherence to these guidelines and code standards.
