Evaluate, introduce, or refactor persistence abstractions when direct Eloquent is insufficient. Use for repository requests, complex aggregate reconstruction, or multiple persistence implementations; reject CRUD wrappers without a concrete benefit.

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

# Repositories only when needed

Direct Eloquent is the default in Domain and Application. Loading an order and calling `$order->save()` from `CancelOrder` does not require a repository, interface, or separate persistence entity.

Introduce a repository only for an actual persistence problem, such as complex aggregate reconstruction, multiple implementations, or a meaningful boundary hiding specialized storage.

When the implementation lives in Infrastructure, put the contract with its consumer in `App\Domain\<Capability>\Contracts` or `App\Application\<Capability>\Contracts`. Infrastructure implements it; a Laravel service provider binds it. The consumer receives the contract rather than the concrete implementation.

Name the contract for the capability it provides and use consumer-owned types in its API. Avoid generic `RepositoryInterface`, `BaseRepository`, or CRUD forwarding methods around Eloquent. Do not introduce a repository solely to mock a model in an Action test.

Keep transaction coordination in the Action. A repository should not silently commit the caller's unit of work. Reusing an existing suitable abstraction is preferable to building a parallel one.

Read the whole file at its exact version.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add maiobarbero/laravel-boost-ddd/introducing-repository@sha256:bdd06c253c62e648

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260922.7ecf42a, 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.
