# ln-770-crosscutting-setup
**Type:** L2 Domain Coordinator
**Category:** 7XX Project Bootstrap
**Parent:** ln-700-project-bootstrap
Coordinates cross-cutting concerns configuration for .NET and Python projects.
---
## Overview
| Aspect | Details |
|--------|---------|
| **Input** | Project root directory |
| **Output** | Configured logging, error handling, CORS, health checks, API docs |
| **Workers** | ln-771 to ln-775 |
| **Stacks** | .NET (ASP.NET Core), Python (FastAPI) |
---
## Phase 1: Detect Project Stack
Determine the technology stack by scanning project files.
**Detection Rules:**
| File Pattern | Stack | Framework |
|--------------|-------|-----------|
| `*.csproj` | .NET | ASP.NET Core |
| `pyproject.toml` or `requirements.txt` + FastAPI | Python | FastAPI |
**Actions:**
1. Glob for `*.csproj` files
2. If not found, Glob for `pyproject.toml` or `requirements.txt`
3. If Python, check for FastAPI in dependencies
4. Store detected stack in Context Store
**Context Store Initial:**
```json
{
"STACK": ".NET" | "Python",
"FRAMEWORK": "ASP.NET Core" | "FastAPI",
"PROJECT_ROOT": "/path/to/project",
"FRAMEWORK_VERSION": "8.0" | "0.109.0"
}
```
---
## Phase 2: Check Existing Configuration
Scan for already configured cross-cutting concerns.
**Detection Patterns:**
| Concern | .NET Pattern | Python Pattern |
|---------|--------------|----------------|
| Logging | `Serilog` in *.csproj, `UseSerilog` in Program.cs | `structlog` in requirements, logging config |
| Error Handling | `GlobalExceptionMiddleware`, `UseExceptionHandler` | `@app.exception_handler`, exception_handlers.py |
| CORS | `AddCors`, `UseCors` | `CORSMiddleware` |
| Health Checks | `AddHealthChecks`, `MapHealthChecks` | `/health` routes |
| API Docs | `AddSwaggerGen`, `UseSwagger` | FastAPI auto-generates |
**Actions:**
1. Grep for each pattern
2. Mark configured concerns as `skip: true`
3. Update Context Store with findings
**Context Store Updated:**
```json
{
"concerns": {
"logging": { "configured": false },
"errorHandling": { "configured": false },
"cors": { "configured": true, "skip": true },
"healthChecks": { "configured": false },
"apiDocs": { "configured": false }
}
}
```
---
## Phase 3: Invoke Workers (Conditional)
Delegate to workers only for unconfigured concerns.
**Worker Invocation Order:**
| Order | Worker | Condition | Skill Call |
|-------|--------|-----------|------------|
| 1 | ln-771-logging-configurator | `logging.configured == false` | `/skill ln-771-logging-configurator` |
| 2 | ln-772-error-handler-setup | `errorHandling.configured == false` | `/skill ln-772-error-handler-setup` |
| 3 | ln-773-cors-configurator | `cors.configured == false` | `/skill ln-773-cors-configurator` |
| 4 | ln-774-healthcheck-setup | `healthChecks.configured == false` | `/skill ln-774-healthcheck-setup` |
| 5 | ln-775-api-docs-generator | `apiDocs.configured == false` | `/skill ln-775-api-docs-generator` |
**Invocations (conditional — skip if concern already configured):**
```
Skill(skill: "ln-771-logging-configurator", args: "{STACK} {FRAMEWORK}")
Skill(skill: "ln-772-error-handler-setup", args: "{STACK} {FRAMEWORK}")
Skill(skill: "ln-773-cors-configurator", args: "{STACK} {FRAMEWORK}")
Skill(skill: "ln-774-healthcheck-setup", args: "{STACK} {FRAMEWORK}")
Skill(skill: "ln-775-api-docs-generator", args: "{STACK} {FRAMEWORK}")
```
**Pass Context Store to each worker.**
**Worker Response Format:**
```json
{
"status": "success" | "skipped" | "error",
"files_created": ["path/to/file.cs"],
"packages_added": ["Serilog.AspNetCore"],
"message": "Configured structured logging with Serilog"
}
```
---
## Phase 4: Generate Aggregation File
Create a single entry point for all cross-cutting services.
### .NET: Extensions/ServiceExtensions.cs
Generate based on configured workers:
```
// Structure only - actual code generated via MCP ref
public static class ServiceExtensions
{
public static IServiceCollection AddCrosscuttingServices(
this IServiceCollection services,
IConfiguration configuration)
{
// Calls added based on configured workers:
// services.AddLogging(configuration); // if ln-771 ran
// services.AddCorsPolicy(configuration); // if ln-773 ran
// services.AddHealthChecks(); // if ln-774 ran
// services.AddSwaggerServices(); // if ln-775 ran
return services;
}
}
```
### Python: middleware/__init__.py
Generate based on configured workers:
```
# Structure only - actual code generated via MCP ref
def configure_middleware(app):
# Middleware added based on configured workers:
# configure_logging(app) # if ln-771 ran
# configure_error_handlers(app) # if ln-772 ran
# configure_cors(app) # if ln-773 ran
# configure_health_routes(app) # if ln-774 ran
pass
```
---
## Phase 5: Summary Report
Display summary of all configured concerns.
**Output Format:**
```

## Workers
| Worker | Purpose | Stacks |
|--------|---------|--------|
| [ln-771-logging-configurator](../ln-771-logging-configurator/SKILL.md) | Structured logging | .NET (Serilog), Python (structlog) |
| [ln-772-error-handler-setup](../ln-772-error-handler-setup/SKILL.md) | Global exception middleware | .NET, Python |
| [ln-773-cors-configurator](../ln-773-cors-configurator/SKILL.md) | CORS policy configuration | .NET, Python |
| [ln-774-healthcheck-setup](../ln-774-healthcheck-setup/SKILL.md) | /health endpoints | .NET, Python |
| [ln-775-api-docs-generator](../ln-775-api-docs-generator/SKILL.md) | Swagger/OpenAPI | .NET (Swashbuckle), Python (FastAPI built-in) |

## Context Store Interface
Workers receive and return via Context Store:
**Input to Workers:**
```json
{
"STACK": ".NET",
"FRAMEWORK": "ASP.NET Core",
"FRAMEWORK_VERSION": "8.0",
"PROJECT_ROOT": "/path/to/project",
"ENVIRONMENT": "Development"
}
```
**Output from Workers:**
```json
{
"status": "success",
"files_created": [],
"packages_added": [],
"registration_code": "services.AddLogging(configuration);"
}
```
---
## Idempotency
This skill is idempotent:
- Phase 2 detects existing configuration
- Workers skip if already configured
- Aggregation file preserves existing entries
---
## Critical Rules
- **Skip already configured concerns** — Phase 2 detection must gate worker invocation (set `skip: true`)
- **Pass Context Store to every worker** — workers depend on `STACK`, `FRAMEWORK`, `PROJECT_ROOT`
- **Generate aggregation file only for workers that ran** — do not add registration calls for skipped concerns
- **Support only .NET and Python** — detect via `*.csproj` or `pyproject.toml`/`requirements.txt` + FastAPI
- **Idempotent execution** — re-running must not duplicate configs or break existing setup
**TodoWrite format (mandatory):**
```
- Detect project stack (in_progress)
- Check existing configuration (pending)
- Invoke ln-771-logging-configurator (pending)
- Invoke ln-772-error-handler-setup (pending)
- Invoke ln-773-cors-configurator (pending)
- Invoke ln-774-healthcheck-setup (pending)
- Invoke ln-775-api-docs-generator (pending)
- Generate aggregation file (pending)
- Summary report (pending)
```
