Micronaut Validation Guidelines

Name: 503-frameworks-micronaut-validation
Author: jabrena

Apply Micronaut validation best practices at HTTP API boundaries.

What is covered in this Skill?

Bean Validation annotations on DTOs and command models
@Valid / @Validated usage in Micronaut controllers
Validation groups and custom validators
Consistent mapping of validation failures to 400 responses
Safe and predictable validation error payloads

Scope: Apply recommendations based on the reference rules and good/bad examples.

Constraints

Before applying validation changes, ensure the project compiles. After improvements, run full verification.

MANDATORY: Run ./mvnw compile or mvn compile before applying any change
SAFETY: If compilation fails, stop immediately
VERIFY: Run ./mvnw clean verify or mvn clean verify after applying improvements
BEFORE APPLYING: Read the reference for detailed rules and examples

When to use this skill

Add validation support in Micronaut
Review Micronaut validation rules
Improve request validation in Micronaut REST APIs
Add custom validation constraints in Micronaut
Validate Micronaut configuration properties
Improve constraint violation handling in Micronaut

Workflow

Read reference and assess project context

Read references/503-frameworks-micronaut-validation.md and inspect the current project setup before proposing changes.

Gather scope and decide target improvements

Identify requested outcomes, constraints, and the minimum safe set of changes to apply.

Apply framework-aligned changes

Implement or refactor validation-related configuration/code following the reference patterns and project conventions.

Run verification and report results

Execute appropriate build/tests and summarize what changed, what was verified, and any follow-up actions.
