What problem does it solve?

This Skill addresses the common issues of disorganized EF Core migrations and scattered entity configurations, leading to cleaner, more maintainable, and testable database code.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Migrations Isolation: Ensures EF Core migrations are kept in a dedicated project, separate from application logic, and excluded from code coverage.
• Dedicated Type Configuration: Enforces the use of separate classes for entity configurations, improving readability and maintainability.
• Attribute-Linked Discovery: Promotes a robust pattern for linking entities to their configurations via attributes, ensuring deterministic application.
• Use Case: When adding new entities or modifying existing ones in an EF Core project, this Skill guides the developer to correctly place migrations, create dedicated configuration files, and ensure they are discoverable, preventing common pitfalls.
