<objective> SOLID Ruby enforces a modular architecture for Ruby 4.0+/Rails 8.1+: every feature lives under `app/modules/[feature]/` (controllers, services, repositories, contracts, models) with shared code in `app/modules/core/`, contracts (duck-typing modules) live only in `contracts/` directories, `# frozen_string_literal: true` is required in every file, and every public method carries YARD documentation.

Before writing any new code it requires a DRY check against `app/modules/core/services` and `app/modules/core/contracts`. See `solid-principles.md` for the overview, the per-principle references for SRP/OCP/LSP/ISP/DIP detail, and the templates for module/service/contract/model/error/test scaffolding. </objective>

SOLID Ruby - Modular Architecture

Agent Workflow (MANDATORY)

Before ANY implementation, spawn 3 agents in parallel, one `Agent` call each with a `name`:

1. **fuse-ai-pilot:explore-codebase** - Analyze existing architecture 2. **fuse-ai-pilot:research-expert** - Verify Ruby/Rails docs via Context7 3. **fuse-ai-pilot:sniper** - Post-implementation validation

---

DRY - Reuse Before Creating (MANDATORY)

**Before writing ANY new code:** 1. **Grep the codebase** for similar modules, services, or logic 2. Check shared locations: `app/modules/core/services/`, `app/modules/core/contracts/` 3. If similar code exists -> extend/reuse instead of duplicate 4. If code will be used by 2+ features -> create it in `app/modules/core/`

---

Architecture (Modules MANDATORY)

| Layer | Location | |-------|----------| | Controllers | `app/modules/[feature]/controllers/` | | Services | `app/modules/[feature]/services/` | | Repositories | `app/modules/[feature]/repositories/` | | Contracts | `app/modules/[feature]/contracts/` | | Models | `app/modules/[feature]/models/` | | Shared | `app/modules/core/{services,contracts,concerns}/` |

**NEVER use flat `app/` structure - always `app/modules/[feature]/`**

---

Critical Rules (MANDATORY)

| Rule | Value | |------|-------| | File limit | `FUSE_SOLID_MAX_LINES` | | Controllers | Thin, delegate to services | | Contracts | `contracts/` directory ONLY (duck typing modules) | | YARD doc | Every public method documented | | Frozen string | `# frozen_string_literal: true` in every file | | Concerns | Use for shared behavior (like interfaces) |
