What

A new code-style rule, ai-context/code-style/request-state-is-container-scoped.md. A class that holds data for one request and is registered in the root container (a DataLoader, a cache of rows, a registry requests add to) uses inContainerScope(), never inSingletonScope().

The rule covers:

  • why: a root singleton is one instance per process, shared by every request and tenant, and built from the root's registrations only, so it never sees what extensions register per request. That is how the CMS DataLoaders served stale entries, and how the OpenSearch registries and the Cognito identity provider missed extension registrations.
  • when a root singleton is right: process-wide state that is identical for every tenant (the GraphQL schema cache, the JWKS store, the encryption key cache, the SQL TableManager's verified tables).
  • how transient, registerInstance and registerFactory registrations fit in.

It's added to the rule table in README.md, and check-the-layer-below-before-caching.md links to it from its "memoizing provider must be registered per request" section.

Docs only.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Documentation
    • Added guidance for registering request-specific state per request container, with clarification on how container scopes affect cached values.
    • Updated caching guidance to cover tenant isolation and linked to the related request-state guidance.

New rule: a class holding data for one request, registered in the root
container, uses inContainerScope(), never inSingletonScope(). A root
singleton is one instance per process, shared by every request and
tenant and blind to per-request extension registrations; that is how the
CMS DataLoaders served stale entries. The rule also says when a root
singleton is right (process-wide caches like the GraphQL schema cache).

✅ Nothing worth flagging. The diff looks consistent with the PR's stated intent and the code-style rules.

This is a small, coherent docs-only PR that adds a new code-style rule and cross-links it from one existing rule, matching its stated intent exactly.

Automated, non-blocking heads-up from an LLM. It can be wrong — use your judgment. Regenerates on every push.

📝 Walkthrough

The code-style documentation adds guidance on dependency registration scopes for request-specific state and updates related caching guidance.

Changes: Request state scope guidance

Layer / File(s) Summary
Document request-state and caching scopes
ai-context/code-style/request-state-is-container-scoped.md, ai-context/code-style/check-the-layer-below-before-caching.md, ai-context/code-style/README.md
The new guidance describes container-scoped request state and other registration lifetimes. The caching guidance now links to it and recommends inContainerScope() for memoizing providers registered in the root. The README table lists the new rule.

Make the registration instructions consistent.

Line 50 says “never at root,” but these lines allow root registration with inContainerScope(). This also conflicts with ai-context/code-style/request-state-is-container-scoped.md, Lines 14-15, which describes one instance per resolving container. Replace the blanket prohibition with wording that says root registration is safe with inContainerScope() when requests resolve through child containers, but not with a root singleton.
