Domain Model Generator

• If docs/domain_model.md exists → Update mode: iterate the existing document.
• If docs/domain_model.md does not exist → Create mode: new document starting from scratch.

Step 2 — Gather inputs

Read the following files (if they exist):

1. docs/project_context.md — extract Domain Glossary and Business Rules sections as the base vocabulary.
2. docs/domain_model.md — previous version (Update mode only).
3. Any epic or flow file the user explicitly mentions.

Step 3 — Interactive exploration (one question at a time)

Ask high-value questions one at a time. Use exact terms from the Domain Glossary — no synonyms.

Cover the following areas (not all questions are required — stop when enough information is gathered):

• Entities: What are the main business objects?
• Attributes: What are the core attributes of each entity?
• State/lifecycle: Does this entity have states? What triggers transitions?
• Invariants: What rules must always hold (e.g., an Order must have at least one item)?
• Relationships: How do entities relate? What are the cardinalities?
• Domain events: What significant things happen in the system? What do they trigger?
• Workflows: Walk me through the happy path. What are the edge cases?

Rules:

• Never invent facts. If something is unknown, record it as an Open Question in the document.
• When enough information is gathered, confirm: "Ready for me to draft/update Domain Model v{N}?"

Step 4 — Generate document

Only after user confirmation. Use the canonical template below exactly.

• Output language: English.
• Vocabulary: Use Domain Glossary terms — no synonyms.
• Gaps: Use [PENDING: <description>] — never invent values or rules.

Step 5 — Write file

Write output to docs/domain_model.md in the target project repo.

• Create mode: Write the full document.
• Update mode: Append new entries to Change Log and Schema Evolution Log — never rewrite history.

Canonical template

# Domain Model & Data Model — <Project Name> (v<version>)

> **Purpose:** Living source of truth for domain concepts + how they map to the system's data model.
> **Audience:** Humans + AI assistants.
> **Rule:** Uses the **Domain Glossary** from `/docs/project_context.md` as the vocabulary contract.
> **Update rule:** Append changes to logs; don't rewrite history without recording it.

## 0) How to read and use this document

### What this model represents
- **Domain Model:** The business concepts (entities, states, rules) independent of implementation.
- **Data Model:** The current persisted representation (database schema) that supports those concepts.
- **Relationship:** The data model is an evolving approximation of the domain model (tradeoffs allowed, must be documented).

### How it evolves
- We iterate this document whenever: a new workflow is added/changed, a business rule changes, an entity/state/event changes, the DB schema changes.

### Source links
- Master Context: `/docs/project_context.md`
- Epics: `/docs/epics/`

## 1) Domain Glossary alignment
- Glossary source: `/docs/project_context.md#2-domain-glossary`
- Terms used heavily in this doc: <list terms>

---

## 2) Domain entities (conceptual)

### Entity: <EntityName>
**Description:** <what it is in business terms>

**Core attributes:**
- `<attr>`: <meaning>

**State / lifecycle (if applicable):**
- States: `<STATE_A>`, `<STATE_B>`, ...
- Valid transitions:
  - `<STATE_A>` → `<STATE_B>` when `<condition>`

**Invariants (must always hold):**
- INV-1: <rule>

**Relationships:**
- `<EntityName>` 1..N `<OtherEntity>` because <why>

---

## 3) Domain events (if applicable)

- **Event: `<EventName>`**
  - Trigger: <what causes it>
  - Payload (conceptual): <fields>
  - Consumers (conceptual): <who cares>

---

## 4) Main workflows

### Workflow: <Name> (happy path)
1. <Step>
2. <Step>

### Edge cases
- <Case>: <handling>

---

## 5) DB Schema (DBML — dbdiagram.io compatible)

\`\`\`dbml
Table <table_name> {
  id uuid [pk]
  <field> <type> [note: "<meaning>"]
}

Ref: <table_a.field> > <table_b.field>
\`\`\`
