Use when generating or modifying any Spring Boot class — controllers, services, repositories, DTOs, mappers, or configuration. Enforces strict layer separation and prevents business logic from leaking across boundaries.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Layered Architecture

## Layer Rules

```
@RestController        ← HTTP only. No business logic. No JPA entities in responses.
      ↓ DTOs
@Service               ← All business logic lives here. Orchestrates repositories.
      ↓ Domain objects / Entities
@Repository            ← Data access only. No business logic. Returns entities or projections.
      ↓ JPA / JDBC
Database
```

## Controller Layer
- Handles HTTP: parsing requests, validating input (`@Valid`), returning responses
- Calls ONE service method per endpoint — no orchestration in controllers
- Never returns `@Entity` classes directly — always map to response DTOs
- Never injects `@Repository` — always goes through a `@Service`
- Exception handling via `@ControllerAdvice`, never try/catch in controllers

```java
// ✅ GOOD
@PostMapping("/orders")
public ResponseEntity<OrderResponse> createOrder(@Valid @RequestBody CreateOrderRequest request) {
    Order order = orderService.createOrder(request);
    return ResponseEntity.status(HttpStatus.CREATED).body(OrderResponse.from(order));
}

// ❌ BAD — business logic in controller
@PostMapping("/orders")

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add rrezartprebreza/spring-boot-skills/layered-architecture@sha256:6c39a7ed14dbd436

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261017.a317397, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
