What it does
Detects anemic domain models, validates and refactors them into rich domain models, and enforces tactical DDD patterns (Entities, Value Objects, Aggregates, Domain Services, Domain Events). Use when the user asks to validate, review, or check domain models or DDD code; detect anemia; refactor domain objects; improve encapsulation; or mentions terms like "anemic model", "rich domain", "aggregate", "value object", "domain event", "ubiquitous language", "is this good DDD", "does this follow DDD", or "check my domain". Do NOT use for module or service boundary design, architectural decomposition, strategic DDD context mapping, or code outside the domain layer (DTOs, controllers, infrastructure adapters).
Tactical DDD, Rich Domain Modeling
Workflow
Determine the user's intent first:
| Intent | Phases to run |
|---|---|
| "validate / review / check / is this correct?" | Phase 1 + 2 only → report findings, ask before refactoring |
| "fix / refactor / improve / clean up" | Phase 1 + 2 + 3 |
| "how should I design / model this?" | Load reference.md directly |
Phase 1, Detect
Load detection.md and scan the target code for anemia signals. Produce a severity score and list of affected classes.
Phase 2, Assess
For each affected class, determine the correct building block:
| Has unique identity tracked over time? | Has invariants tying multiple objects? | → Building Block |
|---|---|---|
| Yes | , | Entity |
| No | , | Value Object |
| Yes (root) + children with shared invariants | Yes | Aggregate |
| Operation spans multiple Aggregates/doesn't belong to any | , | Domain Service |
Prefer Value Objects over Entities. Prefer small Aggregates over large ones.
If intent was validate/review: stop here. Report findings using the output format below. Ask "Would you like me to apply these fixes?" before proceeding.
Phase 3, Refactor
Load refactoring.md for step-by-step moves. Apply in this order:
- Replace setter chains with a single expressive method
- Move service logic into the Aggregate that owns it
- Add business guards at the top of each method
- Publish a Domain Event after each successful state change
- Replace primitive types with Value Objects
For deep pattern questions (boundary design, event modeling, service vs. entity decision), load reference.md.
