Repo Constraints
- This repo currently tests
alchemy@2.0.0-beta.57 with effect@4.0.0-beta.84.
- Keep provider implementation code inside Alchemy v2 lifecycle methods.
- Do not call
Effect.runPromise in library/provider internals.
- Prefer typed tagged errors for recoverable cloud/API failures.
- Keep Azure SDK client construction behind
AzureClientsLive.
Patterns
- Use
Effect.gen for sequential provider lifecycle logic.
- Use
Effect.tryPromise({ try, catch }) at async boundaries.
- Use
Effect.catchIf(isNotFound, ...) for idempotent delete/read recovery.
- Use
Context.Service and Layer for credentials/services.
- Keep secret values in
Redacted until SDK/API boundaries.
Review Checklist
- Are
A, E, and R meaningful and not accidentally widened?
- Are errors recoverable by tag/predicate?
- Is polling bounded and failure explicit?
- Are resources deleted idempotently?
- Are TypeScript assertions hiding an inference/design problem?
