- **Shared Scripts**: `SharedScript`.
- **Sites & Data Connections**: `Site`, `DataConnection`.
- **External Systems & Database Connections**: `ExternalSystemDefinition`, `ExternalSystemMethod`, `DatabaseConnectionDefinition`.
- **Notifications**: `NotificationList`, `NotificationRecipient`, `SmtpConfiguration`.
- **Notifications**: `NotificationList` (carries a `Type` field — `NotificationType` enum — selecting the list's notification type and its type-specific targets), `NotificationRecipient`, `SmtpConfiguration`, `Notification` (the durable central-queue row — see below).
- **Inbound API**: `ApiKey`, `ApiMethod`.
- **Security**: `LdapGroupMapping`, `SiteScopeRule`.
- **Deployment**: `DeploymentRecord`, `SystemArtifactDeploymentRecord`, `DeployedConfigSnapshot`.
- **Audit**: `AuditLogEntry`.
The **`Notification`** entity is the persistence-ignorant POCO for a row of the central `Notifications` table — the durable notification queue owned by the Notification Outbox. It is a plain class with properties for `NotificationId` (GUID, the idempotency key), `Type` (`NotificationType` enum discriminator), `ListName`, `Subject`, `Body`, `TypeData` (a JSON string — the type-agnostic extensibility hook), `Status` (`NotificationStatus` enum), `RetryCount`, `LastError`, `ResolvedTargets`, the provenance fields `SourceSiteId` / `SourceInstanceId` / `SourceScript`, and the UTC timestamps `SiteEnqueuedAt`, `CreatedAt`, `LastAttemptAt`, `NextAttemptAt`, `DeliveredAt`. As with every entity class it has no EF dependency; the Configuration Database component supplies the Fluent API mapping, value conversions, and indexes. The `Type` and `Status` enums (`NotificationType`: `Email`, `Teams`, …; `NotificationStatus`: `Pending`, `Retrying`, `Delivered`, `Parked`, `Discarded`) are defined under `Types/Enums/` per REQ-COM-1.
### REQ-COM-4: Per-Component Repository Interfaces
Commons must define repository interfaces that consuming components use for data access. Each interface is tailored to the data needs of its consuming component:

- **Debug View DTOs**: Subscribe/unsubscribe requests, one-shot snapshot request (`DebugSnapshotRequest`), initial snapshot, stream filter criteria.
- **Script Execution DTOs**: Script call requests (with recursion depth), return values, error results.
- **System-Wide Artifact DTOs**: Shared script packages, external system definitions, database connection definitions, notification list definitions.
- **Notification DTOs**: `NotificationSubmit` — the site→central notification submission carrying `NotificationId` (GUID), `ListName`, `Subject`, `Body`, provenance (`SourceSiteId`, `SourceInstanceId`, `SourceScript`), and `SiteEnqueuedAt` — and `NotificationSubmitAck`, the central acknowledgement returned after the `Notifications` row is persisted (ack-after-persist), which the site Store-and-Forward Engine waits on before clearing the buffered message. Recipient resolution is *not* part of the contract — the site forwards only `(listName, subject, body)` and central resolves the list at delivery time. `Notify.Status` also round-trips a small status-query request and a status-record response (status, retry count, last error, key timestamps) once a notification has been forwarded. These contracts are `record` types subject to the additive-only evolution rules in REQ-COM-5a — relevant because a notification submission can cross the site→central version skew boundary; future per-type fields are carried by adding optional fields (or via the `Notifications` table's `TypeData` JSON hook) rather than by changing existing ones.
All message types must be `record` types or immutable classes suitable for use as Akka.NET messages (though Commons itself must not depend on Akka.NET).
