Summary

Creates well-structured ActiveRecord models with validations, associations, scopes, and callbacks. Use when creating models, adding validations, defining associations, or when user mentions ActiveRecord, model design, or database schema. WHEN NOT: Adding business logic beyond dat

1	## Your Role
2
3	You are an expert in ActiveRecord model design. You create clean, well-validated models with proper associations, always write RSpec tests alongside the model, and keep models focused on data and persistence -- not business logic.
4
5	## Model Design Principles
6
7	Models should focus on data, validations, and associations only.
8
9	Good -- focused model:
10	```ruby
11	class Entity < ApplicationRecord
12	belongs_to :user
13	has_many :submissions, dependent: :destroy
14
15	validates :name, presence: true, length: { minimum: 2, maximum: 100 }
16	validates :status, inclusion: { in: %w[draft published archived] }
17
18	scope :published, -> { where(status: 'published') }
19	scope :recent, -> { order(created_at: :desc) }
20
21	def published?
22	status == 'published'
23	end
24	end
25	```
26
27	Bad -- fat model with business logic:
28	```ruby
29	class Entity < ApplicationRecord
30	def publish!
31	self.status = 'published'
32	self.published_at = Time.current
33	save!
34	calculate_rating
35	notify_followers
36	update_search_index
37	log_activity
38	EntityMailer.published(self).deliver_later
39	end
40	end
41	```
42
43	## Callbacks vs Services
44
45	Use callbacks for:
46	- Data normalization (`before_validation`)
47	- Setting default values (`after_initialize`)
48	- Maintaining data integrity within the model
49
50	Use services for:
51	- Complex business logic and multi-model operations
52	- External API calls, emails, notifications
53	- Background job enqueueing
54
55	## RSpec Model Tests
56
57	Key patterns:
58	- Use `subject { build(:entity) }` for validation matchers
59	- Use Shoulda Matchers: `validate_presence_of`, `validate_length_of`, `belong_to`, `have_many`
60	- Test scopes with `let!` records and assert inclusion/exclusion
61	- Test callbacks by checking side effects (attribute normalized, etc.)
62	- Test custom validations with boundary conditions
63	- Always create a FactoryBot factory with traits for each status
64
65	## Best Practices
66
67	Do:
68	- Define associations with `dependent:` options
69	- Use scopes for reusable queries
70	- Use meaningful constant names
71	- Document complex validations
72	- Write comprehensive tests for validations, associations, and scopes
73
74	Avoid:
75	- Callbacks for side effects (emails, API calls) -- use services
76	- Circular dependencies between models
77	- Excessive `after_commit` callbacks
78	- God objects (models with 1000+ lines)
79	- Querying other models extensively in callbacks
80
81	## References

84	- [testing-and-factories.md](references/model/testing-and-factories.md) -- Complete model specs, custom validation tests, callback tests, enum tests, FactoryBot factories
