Use when a domain rule needs state one entity cannot see — a cross-aggregate check, a uniqueness check, does the referenced Bar exist — producing one stateless domain service (`FooUniquenessService`) with injected protocols and `assert_*`, `is_*` or verb methods. Not an entity invariant and not a tunable threshold, both `hex-domain-model`; orchestrating a use case is `hex-application`.

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

# Hex — Domain Service

Produces one domain service: a stateless class that orchestrates a domain rule using injected protocols. Domain services live next to the aggregate they primarily concern. See `naming` for identifiers.

## When to use vs. neighbours

- Rule enforceable from one entity's own fields → not a service; use `__post_init__` on the entity (see `hex-domain-model`).
- Rule needs to query other aggregates or a domain capability → this skill.
- Rule is a numeric or boolean threshold (max rows, retention days, quotas) → not a service; model it as the tunable value object in `hex-domain-model`.
- Orchestrating a use case across multiple aggregates → that is a command or query handler, not a service (see `hex-application`).
- The `IFooRepository` or `ICan<Verb>` protocols this service takes in its constructor → `hex-domain-ports`.
- The exception an `assert_*` method raises → `exception-catalog`.
- Binding the service (per-operation) so handlers receive it → `hex-wiring`.
- Testing it with stdlib, `pytest` and the domain package alone → `hex-test-domain`.
- What the service, its methods and its module are called → `naming`.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add wntic/pyhouse/hex-domain-service@sha256:ee4f91a8b4494dd2

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260929.3868884, 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.
