symfony:controller-cleanup

Refactor Symfony controllers by extracting business logic into dedicated services, implementing DTOs for input validation, and using attributes for routing and security to ensure modular, testable code.

The best way to extract business logic from Symfony controllers is moving it into dedicated services, ensuring lean controller actions that delegate responsibilities like validation and notifications to separate components.

Use Data Transfer Objects (DTOs) in Symfony controllers to handle request data and validation cleanly, separating input validation concerns from the controller's execution workflow and business logic.

Yes, refactored Symfony controllers can employ the attribute system for common tasks like routing and authorization, replacing older configuration methods to streamline execution workflows.

Mixing validation, business logic, and notifications in a Symfony controller creates a fat controller, which you resolve by refactoring to delegate these responsibilities to services and DTOs.

Yes, the symfony:controller-cleanup skill specifically guides refactoring complex workflows like order creation by extracting validation, business logic, and email sending into separate services and DTOs.
