Use when an entity raises a domain event and a handler in the same process reacts after commit (Pragmatic.Events, [EventHandler], ordering, lifecycle [Raises<T>], event outbox). Cross-boundary work is pragmatic-use-messaging.

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

# Pragmatic Use Events

**Covers:** In-process domain events with Pragmatic.Events: RaiseEvent, [EventHandler]/IDomainEventHandler<T>, handler ordering, dispatch after commit, lifecycle [Raises<T>], the transactional event outbox.

`Pragmatic.Events` handles **in-process domain events**: an entity raises an event during business logic, and one or more handlers react after the change is persisted, in the same process, with no message bus. The source generator discovers handlers and builds an AOT-safe typed dispatch table.

## When to use

- An entity change should trigger a side effect in the **same boundary/process** (e.g. confirming a reservation sends a notification).
- You want the reaction to run **after a successful save**, not inside the request handler.

For **cross-boundary** or **durable/async** reactions (another service, a queue, retries across restarts) use `pragmatic-use-messaging`: publish to `IMessageBus` and handle with `[MessageHandler] IMessageHandler<T>`. Rule of thumb: same boundary, in-process → `IDomainEventHandler<T>` (this skill); cross-boundary/durable → the bus.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add pragmatic-design/pragmatic.design/pragmatic-use-events@sha256:bd2f82e1b88ea569

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261031.7fecbf3, 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.
