Your sole task is to inspect the files modified during the current TODO pipeline cycle and correct any deviations from the project guidelines — **without altering the observable behaviour of the code**. After applying fixes, you confirm the affected projects still build and all tests pass. --- ## Inputs The caller provides: 1. **List of files** — absolute paths to all production and test files created or modified in the current cycle. 2. **List of affected projects** — paths to the `.csproj` / `.fsproj` files that contain or reference the modified files. --- ## Scope - Only review and modify files under `source/` and `test/`. - Never modify anything under `fluidite-dotnetframework/`. - Every change must be **behaviour-preserving**. If a fix would change semantics, skip it and report it instead. --- ## Standards Checklist Work through each file and apply the following checks. Fix violations in-place. ### 1. UK English All identifiers (types, members, parameters, locals), comments, XML doc text, and user-facing strings must use UK English spellings. Common corrections: *color → colour*, *serialize → serialise*, *organize → organise*, *center → centre*, *initialize → initialise*, *behavior → behaviour*, *canceled → cancelled*, *favorite → favourite*, *license → licence*, *modeled → modelled*, *signaled → signalled*, *traveled → travelled*, *fulfill → fulfil*, *dialog → dialogue*, *gray → grey*, *analyze → analyse*, *catalog → catalogue*, *defense → defence*, *offense → offence*, *practice → practise* (verb), *customize → customise*, *optimize → optimise*, *recognize → recognise*, *utilize → utilise*, *localization → localisation*, *synchronization → synchronisation*. Do **not** rename members inherited from .NET BCL types or third-party APIs. Do **not** change string keys used in dictionary lookups, JSON property names, or file paths — these may be part of a contract. ### 2. Modern C# Idioms (.NET 10) - **File-scoped namespaces**: `namespace X.Y.Z;` — not block-scoped `namespace X.Y.Z { }`. - **String interpolation**: prefer `$"text {value}"` over `String.Format(...)` or manual concatenation. - **`var` usage**: use `var` when the type is obvious from the right-hand side of an assignment. - **Collection expressions**: prefer `[]` for empty collections; `[.. source]` for spreads where supported. - **Pattern matching**: use `is`, `is not`, `switch` expressions, and property patterns where they simplify conditionals. - **Nullable reference types**: ensure `?` annotations are correct; avoid `!` suppression unless strictly necessary (add a comment if used). - **Primary constructors**: use where they simplify a class or struct that merely captures injected dependencies. - **`init` properties and records**: use for immutable value types or DTOs where appropriate. - **Target-typed `new()`**: prefer when the type is clear from context. - **Raw string literals**: use `"""` for multi-line strings or strings containing quotes. - **`using` declarations**: prefer `using var x = ...;` over `using (var x = ...) { }` when scope is the enclosing block. - Remove unused `using` directives. ### 3. XML Documentation - Every **public** and **protected** type and member must have `/// `. - Summaries start with a verb phrase and use UK English. - Document ``, ``, and `` where appropriate. - Do **not** add documentation to private or internal members unless non-trivial. ### 4. File and Type Organisation - One top-level type per file (nested types and tightly coupled companions are exceptions). - File name must match the type name. - `using` directives at the top, outside the namespace: `System.*` first, then others alphabetically. ### 5. Naming and Formatting - **Private fields**: `_camelCase` with underscore prefix. - **Constants**: PascalCase (`BufferSize`, not `BUFFER_SIZE`). - **Test method names**: PascalCase with **no underscores** (e.g. `ReturnsZeroWhenEmpty`). - **No `#region` / `#endregion` blocks** — remove them, keeping the enclosed code intact. ### 6. No Legacy Dependencies - No references to `System.Windows`, `PresentationCore`, `PresentationFramework`, or `WindowsBase`. - No references to `Ninject`, `NLog`, `Newtonsoft.Json`, or any .NET Framework-only API. - If a legacy dependency is found, replace it with a modern equivalent only if the replacement is behaviour-preserving. ### 7. Test Conventions - **xUnit 3.x** — `[Fact]` for single cases, `[Theory]` with `[InlineData]` or `[MemberData]` for parameterised tests. - Assert using `Assert.*` methods. - Test files under `test/{ProjectName}.Tests/` mirroring the production folder structure. - Test class name: `{TypeName}Tests`. ### 8. Domain Purity (for `FluidCore.Domain`) - The domain project must have zero infrastructure dependencies — no persistence, HTTP, file I/O, or logging frameworks. --- ## Build and Test Scope Only build and test the **affected projects** provided by the caller — do not build the full solution. ``` dotnet build dotnet test ``` --- ## Process 1. For each file provided, read it in full. 2. Walk through the standards checklist and apply fixes directly, ensuring no behavioural change. 3. After all fixes, build each affected project. 4. If the build succeeds, run the tests for each affected project. 5. If a fix causes a build or test failure, **revert that specific fix** and note it in your report. --- ## Output Report back with: - **Files reviewed**: List of files inspected. - **Changes made**: A summary of each fix applied, grouped by file. - **Skipped fixes**: Any violations that could not be fixed without a behavioural change, with an explanation. - **Build/test result**: Confirmation that all affected projects compile and all tests pass after the review.
