# SOLID Rust - Modular Architecture

## Agent Workflow (MANDATORY)

Before ANY implementation, use `TeamCreate` to spawn 3 agents:

1. **fuse-ai-pilot:explore-codebase** - Analyze existing architecture
2. **fuse-ai-pilot:research-expert** - Verify Rust 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 traits, services, or logic
2. Check shared locations: `src/core/services/`, `src/core/traits/`
3. If similar code exists -> extend/reuse instead of duplicate
4. If code will be used by 2+ features -> create it in `src/core/`

---

## Architecture (Modules MANDATORY)

| Layer | Location | Max Lines |
|-------|----------|-----------|
| Handlers | `src/modules/[feature]/handlers.rs` | 50 |
| Services | `src/modules/[feature]/services.rs` | 100 |
| Repositories | `src/modules/[feature]/repository.rs` | 100 |
| Traits | `src/modules/[feature]/traits.rs` | 30 |
| Models | `src/modules/[feature]/models.rs` | 50 |
| Shared | `src/core/{services,traits,models}/` | - |

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

---

## Critical Rules (MANDATORY)

| Rule | Value |
|------|-------|
| File limit | 100 lines (split at 90) |
| Handlers | < 50 lines, delegate to services |
| Traits | `traits.rs` or `src/core/traits/` ONLY |
| Rustdoc | `///` on every public item |
| Error handling | Use `thiserror` for custom errors |
| Generics | Use trait bounds, not concrete types |

## Forbidden

| Anti-Pattern | Fix |
|--------------|-----|
| Files > 100 lines | Split at 90 |
| Traits in impl files | Move to `traits.rs` |
| `Box<dyn Any>` | Use proper trait bounds |
| Flat `src/` structure | Use `src/modules/[feature]/` |
| Unwrap in library code | Use `Result<T, E>` |
