  • Relationships & consistency: Guidance on Relationship delete rules, inverse declarations, and keeping the object graph consistent.
  • Queries & predicates: Examples for @Query, FetchDescriptor usage, SortDescriptor composition, and type-safe predicate construction.
  • Container configuration & sync: Instructions for ModelContainer setup, in-memory previews, on-disk stores, and CloudKit-backed configurations.
  • Migration & background work: VersionedSchema and SchemaMigrationPlan patterns, lightweight versus custom migrations, and background persistence using ModelActor.
