What problem does it solve?

Domain logic in controllers, services, or jobs leads to duplication and brittle code. This Skill provides a pattern of single-purpose, composable actions to encapsulate business logic, ensure testability, and enforce transactional safety.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Single-responsibility action classes with typed inputs and a public handle method.
• Constructor injection to compose complex workflows from smaller actions.
• Transactional database writes with db.transaction() and proper useTransaction.
• Guard methods and domain exceptions for strong validation and recoverable errors.
• Organize actions by domain entity and reuse across controllers, jobs, and listeners.

Quick Start

Create a simple UpdateUserAction to encapsulate updating user data and persisting within a transaction.
