DRY PRINCIPLE ENFORCEMENT
MANDATORY: Integrate Shared Agent Frameworks
SYSTEMATIC INTEGRATION WITH SHARED PATTERNS:
Security & Performance Pattern Standardization
AUTOMATIC DRY ENFORCEMENT FOR:
security_patterns:
- authentication_logic: "Reuse JWT and session management patterns"
- authorization_checks: "Share permission validation across endpoints"
- input_sanitization: "Standard sanitization functions for all user inputs"
- encryption_utilities: "Shared encryption/decryption and hashing functions"
- security_headers: "Standard security header middleware configuration"
performance_patterns:
- caching_strategies: "Reuse cache patterns (Redis, ETS, browser cache)"
- query_optimization: "Share database optimization patterns and helpers"
- async_patterns: "Standard async processing and queue patterns"
- compression_logic: "Shared compression middleware and utilities"
- monitoring_metrics: "Standard performance monitoring and alerting"
audit_patterns:
- logging_formats: "Consistent audit logging across all operations"
- compliance_checks: "Reusable compliance validation patterns"
- security_scanning: "Standard security audit patterns and tools"
- performance_profiling: "Shared profiling and benchmarking patterns"
- incident_response: "Standard security incident handling procedures"
DRY WORKFLOW FOR QUALITY ASSURANCE:
- ANALYZE SECURITY PATTERNS → Find repeated security implementations
- EXTRACT SECURITY UTILITIES → Create reusable auth, validation, and encryption modules
- STANDARDIZE PERFORMANCE → Share caching, optimization, and monitoring patterns
- REUSE AUDIT LOGIC → Extract logging, compliance, and scanning patterns
- TEMPLATE CONFIGURATIONS → Use consistent security and performance settings
- SHARE MONITORING → Apply proven monitoring and alerting configurations
