| description | Create repository classes for persisting entities. Dispatches between Ivy.repo() (default) and JPA/SQL (advanced) approaches. |
Persistence Decision
When user needs data persistence, choose the approach:
Does the user explicitly request SQL/JPA/database/persistence-utils?
├── NO → Load `ivy-repo.md` — DEFAULT (simple, no DB config needed)
└── YES → Load `jpa-persistence.md` (requires databases.yaml, persistence.xml, DAOs)
DEFAULT: Always load ivy-repo.md unless the user explicitly asks for:
- SQL database, JPA entities, Hibernate, persistence-utils
- DAO classes, CriteriaQuery, AuditableIdEntity
- databases.yaml, persistence.xml configuration
- An existing project already uses the JPA pattern
Always Load One
- Default persistence (Ivy Business Data) → Load
ivy-repo.md
- JPA/SQL persistence (entities, DAOs, services, database config) → Load
jpa-persistence.md
After Using This Skill
MANDATORY: After creating or modifying any entity or repository using Ivy.repo(), run the checklist in ivy-repo-verify.md to catch common errors (duplicate key violations, manual ID issues).
Entity/Model Definition
Both approaches use axon-ivy-java-data skill for creating model classes and enums.
