ADR-015: Edge type constraints as named Module entries
Status
Accepted
Context
Edge type constraints (allowedSourceTypes/allowedTargetTypes) could be stored only as DB columns (JSON text arrays) or as first-class parts of the schema with validation and serialization.
Decision
Edge type constraints are named Module entries (e.g., TriggeredEdgeConstraints), not just DB columns. This gives them schema validation (Value.Check) and serialization (JSON Schema with $defs). The repository layer projects these entries to the existing edge_types.allowedSourceTypes/allowedTargetTypes columns. The DB schema doesn't change — Module entries are the source of truth, DB columns are the persistence projection.
Empty constraint arrays [] mean "no restriction" (any node type valid). Omitting the *EdgeConstraints entry means the same. An explicit entry with empty arrays is invalid.
Consequences
- Constraints are validatable at the schema level, not just at the DB layer
moduleToDbSchema()extracts constraint entries to DB columns- Constraint data survives serialization/deserialization cycles via JSON Schema
$defs - DB columns remain
