PHP Domain Clarification

Before Coding

Check whether the domain invariants are explicit enough to implement safely.

If not, ask concise clarifying questions before starting implementation.

Do this especially when a change affects externally visible behavior, identifiers, persistence shape, cross-context data scoping, or consistency between related outputs.

Clarify Ambiguous Terms

When a term, parameter, or concept is reused across different meanings, clarify what it means for the affected type or workflow.

Ask for examples when names suggest one concept but are used for another.

Clarify Scoping

Clarify whether a tenant, user group, context, configuration, or request value is only used for presentation and metadata, or whether it should restrict behavior and returned data.
