# - AI Agent Instructions > Instructions for AI agents (Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, etc.) working on this module. ## Module Context - **Primary Language**: C# (.NET 10) - **Project Type**: Library / WebService / Worker - **Test Framework**: xUnit with Testcontainers ## Key Files | File | Purpose | |------|---------| | `src//__Libraries/StellaOps..Core/` | Core business logic | | `src//StellaOps..WebService/Program.cs` | Service entry point | | `src//__Tests/` | Test projects | ## Common Tasks ### Adding a New Feature 1. Start with the interface in `*.Core` 2. Implement in the appropriate layer 3. Add tests in the corresponding `*.Tests` project 4. Update API contracts if WebService ### Fixing a Bug 1. Write a failing test first 2. Fix the implementation 3. Verify all related tests pass ## Patterns to Follow - **Dependency Injection**: All dependencies via constructor injection - **Async/Await**: Propagate CancellationToken through all async chains - **Error Handling**: Use Result pattern, not exceptions for expected failures - **Logging**: Structured logging with semantic properties ## Anti-Patterns to Avoid - Direct `new HttpClient()` - use IHttpClientFactory - `DateTime.UtcNow` - use TimeProvider injection - `Guid.NewGuid()` - use IGuidGenerator injection - Culture-sensitive string operations - use InvariantCulture ## Testing Requirements - Unit tests for all public APIs - Integration tests for database operations - Snapshot tests for serialization - All tests must be deterministic ## Related Documentation - [Architecture](./architecture.md) - [CLAUDE.md](../../../CLAUDE.md) - Global coding rules - [src/__Tests/AGENTS.md](../../../src/__Tests/AGENTS.md) - Test infrastructure
