Rails Model Patterns

Analyze and recommend ActiveRecord model patterns for well-structured Rails applications.

Resolve the axis first

Where a model's domain logic and side effects belong forks on Axis A — logic placement:

1. If the axes are resolved this session, use them.
2. Otherwise resolve via rails-stack-profiles (Axis A — native or extracted).
3. Then read the matching decomposition guide:
   • native → decomposition.native.md
   • extracted → decomposition.extracted.md

Default to native if the axis cannot be resolved. Everything else in this file is invariant.
