Typical Domain-Entity Entry Points for Business Logic
Goal
When deciding which business-logic entry points to implement around a domain-entity type, prefer a standard set of entry points instead of inventing ad hoc operations.
Treat the domain entity as the organizing center. Start from the entity type, then choose the entry point kind that matches the business operation:
- create
- update
- find by id
- search
- delete by id
- explicit mark-as operations for finite-state changes
- explicit assign or add operations for entity associations
- explicit check-whether-can-be operations for boolean feasibility checks
Basic Entry Points
More from code-sherpas/agent-skills
neverthrow-return-types
Require `neverthrow`-based return types in TypeScript and JavaScript code whenever the surrounding technology allows it. Use when creating, refactoring, reviewing, or extending standalone functions, exported module functions, class methods, object methods, service methods, repository methods, and similar APIs that should expose explicit success and failure result types in their signatures. Prefer `Result<T, E>` for synchronous code and `ResultAsync<T, E>` for asynchronous code. Only skip a `neverthrow` return type when a framework, library, runtime interface, or externally imposed contract is incompatible and requires a different return shape.
19neverthrow-wrap-exceptions
Capture exceptions and promise failures with `neverthrow` instead of hand-written `try/catch` in TypeScript and JavaScript code. Use when wrapping synchronous functions that may throw, promise-returning functions that may throw before returning, existing `PromiseLike` values that may reject, or third-party APIs such as parsers, database clients, HTTP clients, file-system helpers, serializers, and SDK calls. Prefer `Result.fromThrowable` for synchronous throwers, `ResultAsync.fromThrowable` for promise-returning functions that may throw or reject, and `ResultAsync.fromPromise` when you already have a `PromiseLike` value in hand. Only keep `try/catch` when the language construct, cleanup requirement, or framework boundary truly requires it.
14atomic-design
Create or update web UI components with a strict reuse-first workflow. Use when building, refactoring, restyling, or extending frontend or template components while minimizing raw DOM or HTML by reusing or generalizing existing components first.
11write-persistence-representations
Create or update persistence-layer data representations in any stack, including ORM entities, schema definitions, table mappings, document models, collection definitions, and similar database-facing code. Use when agents needs to add or change persisted fields, identifiers, relationships, indexes, timestamps, auditing fields, or storage mappings in frameworks, libraries, or ORMs such as Prisma, TypeORM, Sequelize, Drizzle, Mongoose, Hibernate/JPA, Doctrine, Ecto, Active Record, or equivalent persistence technologies.
8business-logic
Identify, interpret, review, or write business logic in code. Use when an agent needs to decide whether code expresses business rules, business algorithms, or business workflows, or when it must implement, preserve, or refactor code that creates, stores, or transforms data according to real business policies.
8immutable-domain-entities
Require the immutable design pattern for domain entities. Use when an agent needs to create, modify, review, or interpret domain entities and should preserve identity while expressing state changes through new immutable instances. Domain entities must be modeled as immutable classes, not as plain type aliases or interfaces paired with standalone functions.
