Added three new documents with nine Mermaid diagrams to make the strangler fig strategy visible: - README: container topology diagram at the start, with the proxy entry point and three seams labelled - docs/architecture.md: five diagrams tracing the exact implementation: - The four seams and who holds authority at each boundary - How by-id read goes through the resolver, but list-read bypasses it - Case lifecycle state machine (the strategy in one picture) - Take-ownership sequence with failure windows annotated - Write-through error round-trip showing zero validation logic crossed - docs/playbook.md: how to apply this to a production system: - Write-path decision tree (five read/write patterns) - Cutover ordering diagram (side-effects-free first, least recoverable last) - Seven transferable rules with pointers to the files that demonstrate them - Scope diagram of what's proven vs. left as your decisions Resolved all 13 dangling § citations (to an absent spec doc) by linking to the actual files or dropping them. Replaced portal-frontend/README.md boilerplate with accurate content. All diagrams parse and link-check clean. Co-Authored-By: Claude Haiku 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

# ADR-001: A register decision takes effect independently of case closure
|
|
|
|
## Status
|
|
Accepted.
|
|
|
|
## Context
|
|
`case-framework` (seam D, a stand-in for a maintained vendor case-management
|
|
framework) refuses `POST /cases/{id}/closure-request` with **409 Conflict**
|
|
while any task on the case is still open. That rule belongs to the framework
|
|
and is not ours to change — it is a conformist integration by design
|
|
(seam D, `New.Infrastructure.CaseFramework/CaseFrameworkGateway.cs`).
|
|
|
|
The new domain's own rule is different: once an assessment (approve/reject) is
|
|
recorded on a `RegistrationApplication`, that decision is legally in effect
|
|
immediately. It cannot wait for an administrative task (e.g. a filing or
|
|
notification step) to be ticked off in a separate system.
|
|
|
|
These two rules can genuinely conflict: an assessment can be recorded while a
|
|
case-framework task is still open, at which point the case cannot yet be
|
|
closed.
|
|
|
|
## Decision
|
|
Recording an assessment and requesting case closure are treated as two
|
|
separate, non-transactional steps:
|
|
|
|
1. `POST /api/worklist/owned/{id}/assessment` records the decision on the
|
|
aggregate and commits it. This always succeeds if the domain invariants are
|
|
satisfied, regardless of case-framework's task state.
|
|
2. The handler then calls `POST /cases/{id}/closure-request` on seam D as a
|
|
best-effort follow-up. A `409` here is an **expected, non-exceptional**
|
|
outcome, not a failure: the assessment is not rolled back, and the response
|
|
reports `closurePending: true` instead of an error.
|
|
|
|
The user-facing consequence: the outcome is decided immediately, with the UI
|
|
showing `Besluit vastgelegd. Administratieve afsluiting in afwachting.` when
|
|
closure is still pending. Administrative closure catches up whenever the
|
|
remaining task is completed — a scenario this demo does not automate, since it
|
|
is not a claim about the framework, only proof that it can lag safely.
|
|
|
|
## Consequences
|
|
- The domain layer's assessment-recording method must not be coupled to
|
|
case-framework's closure semantics — it has none of that knowledge, by
|
|
design (New.Domain/New.Application never reference the case-framework
|
|
client, see Architecture.Tests rules 1 and 8).
|
|
- A case can sit in "decided but not administratively closed" indefinitely.
|
|
That is accepted, not a bug: it is the visible cost of a conformist
|
|
integration whose task-completion timing this system does not control.
|
|
- No compensating transaction exists for a closure-request failure, because
|
|
there is nothing to compensate — the assessment was correct and complete on
|
|
its own terms.
