## Iron Laws

1. **ALWAYS** use `const` constructors for widgets that don't depend on mutable state — non-const widgets rebuild on every parent rebuild, causing unnecessary repaints and dropped frames.
2. **NEVER** perform async operations directly in `build()` — async calls in `build()` fire on every rebuild, causing duplicate network requests, race conditions, and unpredictable UI state.
3. **ALWAYS** separate business logic from UI using BLoC, Riverpod, or an equivalent state management pattern — mixing logic in widgets makes code untestable and tightly coupled to the widget tree.
4. **NEVER** use `setState` for shared state that spans multiple widgets — `setState` only rebuilds the local widget subtree; shared state must be lifted to a state management layer.
5. **ALWAYS** implement null safety fully (no `!` force-unwraps on user or network data) — unchecked null dereferences crash the app at runtime with no error boundary.

## Anti-Patterns

| Anti-Pattern                       | Why It Fails                                                          | Correct Approach                                                              |
| ---------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Non-const stateless widgets        | Rebuilt on every parent setState; wastes frame budget                 | Add `const` to all stateless widget constructors and their instantiation      |
| Calling `Future` in `build()`      | Re-fires on every rebuild; duplicates API calls and causes flickering | Use `FutureBuilder` with a stored `Future` field initialized in `initState`   |
| Business logic in widgets          | Untestable; coupled to widget lifecycle; duplicated across screens    | Move logic to BLoC/Cubit or Riverpod providers; widgets observe state only    |
| `setState` for cross-widget state  | Only rebuilds local subtree; sibling widgets stay stale               | Use `InheritedWidget`, `Provider`, or BLoC streams for shared state           |
| Force-unwrapping nullable API data | Runtime null crash with no recovery path                              | Use null-aware operators (`?.`, `??`) and handle null states explicitly in UI |

## Memory Protocol (MANDATORY)

**Before starting:**

```bash
cat .claude/context/memory/learnings.md
```

**After completing:** Record any new patterns or exceptions discovered.
