# ManagedCode.Communication
## Trigger On
- integrating `ManagedCode.Communication` into services or APIs
- replacing exception-driven result handling with explicit results
- reviewing service boundaries that return success or failure payloads
- documenting result-pattern usage across ASP.NET Core or application services
## Workflow
1. Confirm the boundary where the library belongs:
- service result contracts
- application manager boundaries
- API endpoints that translate results into HTTP responses
2. Keep result creation and error mapping explicit instead of mixing exceptions, nulls, and ad-hoc tuples.
3. Pattern-match result objects at the boundary that converts them into user-facing responses.
4. Do not hide domain failures behind generic success wrappers.
5. Validate positive, negative, and error-path handling after integration.

## Deliver
- guidance on where explicit result objects improve clarity
- usage boundaries for translating results into API or caller responses
- validation expectations for success and failure flows
## Validate
- result handling is consistent across the boundary that uses the library
- callers do not fall back to exception-only logic for normal failure cases
- negative and error scenarios are documented and tested
