Summary
This PR fixes a dependency injection anti-pattern in
_get_tool_registry_servicewithincli/commands/validation.py, where the fullToolRegistryServicedependency graph was being manually constructed instead of delegating to the DI container. The fix registerstool_registry_serviceas a properproviders.Singletonin the container and reduces the function to a clean one-liner, consistent with the established patterns used elsewhere in the codebase.Changes
src/cleveragents/application/container.py: Added a_build_tool_registry_service(database_url)builder function following the established_build_skill_service/_build_session_servicepattern. The builder encapsulates the engine, sessionmaker,ToolRegistryRepository, andValidationAttachmentRepositorywiring that previously leaked into the CLI layer. Registeredtool_registry_serviceas aproviders.Singletonin theContainerclass so the service is resolved through the container like every other service.src/cleveragents/cli/commands/validation.py: Refactored_get_tool_registry_service()from ~20 lines of manual dependency wiring down to a single line:return get_container().tool_registry_service(). This is now consistent with the_get_skill_service()pattern incli/commands/skill.pyand eliminates the duplicated wiring logic that belonged exclusively in the container.features/tdd_di_tool_registry_service.feature(new): Added a TDD Behave feature file with two scenarios that were failing before the fix:_get_tool_registry_servicedelegates tocontainer.tool_registry_service().Containerclass exposes atool_registry_serviceprovider.features/steps/tdd_di_tool_registry_service_steps.py(new): Step definitions for the new TDD feature file.features/steps/validation_cli_uncovered_branches_steps.py(updated): Updated mock setup to patchcontainer.tool_registry_service()instead of the now-removedcontainer.database_url()call path, keeping existing branch-coverage scenarios aligned with the refactored implementation.Design Decisions
providers.Singletonoverproviders.Factory:tool_registry_serviceis registered as aSingletonto match theskill_servicepattern. Registry services share a single database connection pool within a process lifetime; creating a new engine and sessionmaker on every call would be wasteful and inconsistent with how other services are wired.Builder function pattern: The
_build_tool_registry_service(database_url)function mirrors_build_skill_serviceand_build_session_serviceexactly — it is a plain function (not a method) that accepts the database URL and returns a fully constructed service. This keeps theContainerclass declaration clean and makes the wiring easy to test in isolation.No in-memory fallback: Unlike
_build_skill_service, no fallback to an in-memory mode is provided.ToolRegistryServicerequires a real database and has no in-memory implementation, so adding a fallback would be misleading. If the database URL is unavailable the container will raise, which is the correct failure mode.Minimal blast radius: Only the container registration and the single CLI helper function were changed. No public API, no serialisation format, and no database schema were touched.

Review Summary
Reviewed PR #3325 with focus on concurrency-safety, race-conditions, and deadlock-risks.
This PR replaces manual DI wiring in
_get_tool_registry_service()with proper container resolution, following the established_build_*pattern used by_build_skill_service,_build_session_service, and other DB-backed services. The change is clean, well-scoped, and correctly addresses issue #3006.Reviewer verdict: APPROVED ✅ (posted as COMMENT due to Forgejo self-review restriction)
✅ Concurrency Safety Deep Dive
Given special attention to concurrency implications of the Singleton pattern:
Thread-safe Singleton creation: The
dependency-injectorlibrary'sproviders.Singletonuses an internal lock for lazy initialization, ensuring the builder function is called exactly once even under concurrent access. This is the same mechanism used by all other Singleton providers in the container (skill_service,event_bus,audit_service, etc.). No new concurrency risk introduced.Improved connection pooling: The old code in
_get_tool_registry_service()calledcreate_engine()andsessionmaker()on every invocation, creating a new engine and connection pool each time. The new Singleton pattern creates a single engine with proper connection pooling for the process lifetime. This is actually a concurrency improvement — multiple concurrent callers now share a properly pooled engine rather than each creating their own.SQLAlchemy engine thread safety: The
create_engine()call produces a thread-safe engine with a built-in connection pool. Thesessionmakeris thread-safe to call (each invocation produces a new session). The repositories receive thesession_factoryand create sessions per-operation, which is the correct pattern for concurrent access.No deadlock risk: No new locks are introduced. The Singleton provider's internal lock is the same mechanism used throughout the container. The
_build_tool_registry_servicefunction performs no blocking I/O that could cause lock contention during initialization.get_container()global state: The existingget_container()function usesglobalvariables without thread synchronization — this is a pre-existing concern not introduced or worsened by this PR.✅ Specification Compliance

PR label mismatch: The PR carries
Type/Refactorbut the linked issue #3006 is labeledType/Bug. The commit message prefixfix(cli)correctly identifies this as a bug fix. Consider updating the PR label toType/Bugfor consistency with the issue and commit convention.Return type annotation opportunity:
_get_tool_registry_service()still returns-> Any. Since the function now simply delegates to the container, it could return-> ToolRegistryServicefor better type safety. This is pre-existing and non-blocking, but would be a nice improvement if addressed.container.py file size: At ~36KB / ~600+ lines,
container.pycontinues to grow. This is a pre-existing concern — the PR adds only ~30 lines following established patterns, so it's not a blocker here. Worth noting for future architectural consideration.Decision: APPROVED ✅
The implementation is clean, follows established patterns, and the concurrency implications are actually positive (shared connection pool via Singleton vs. per-call engine creation). No race conditions, deadlocks, or thread-safety issues identified.

Review Summary (architecture-alignment, module-boundaries, interface-contracts)
Reviewed PR #3325 with focus on architecture-alignment, module-boundaries, and interface-contracts.
This PR replaces manual DI wiring in
_get_tool_registry_service()with proper container resolution, fixing a consistency anti-pattern identified in issue #3006. The change is clean, well-scoped, and correctly follows established project patterns.Reviewer verdict: APPROVED ✅ (posted as COMMENT due to Forgejo self-review restriction)
✅ Architecture Alignment (Deep Dive)
Given special attention to architectural consistency:
Builder function pattern:
_build_tool_registry_service(database_url)follows the exact same pattern as_build_skill_service,_build_session_service,_build_automation_profile_service,_build_trace_service, and other DB-backed service builders. The signature (database_url: str → ToolRegistryService), the lazy SQLAlchemy imports, and the engine/sessionmaker/repository construction are all consistent.Singleton registration:
tool_registry_serviceis registered asproviders.Singletonin theContainerclass, matching theskill_servicepattern. The justification is sound — registry services share a single DB connection pool within a process lifetime. This is actually a concurrency improvement over the old code, which calledcreate_engine()on every invocation.No in-memory fallback: The deliberate omission of an in-memory fallback (unlike
_build_skill_service) is well-reasoned and documented.ToolRegistryServicerequires a real database; a fallback would be misleading. Fail-fast is the correct behavior here, consistent with the project's error handling principles.ADR-003 compliance: The change correctly centralizes service wiring in the DI container per ADR-003 (Dependency Injection Framework).
✅ Module Boundaries (Deep Dive)
This PR fixes a module boundary violation:
Before:
cli/commands/validation.py(presentation layer) was importing infrastructure concerns:create_engine,sessionmaker,ToolRegistryRepository,ValidationAttachmentRepository. This violated the layered architecture by having the CLI layer directly depend on infrastructure internals.After:
cli/commands/validation.pyonly importsget_containerfrom the application layer. All infrastructure wiring is properly encapsulated incontainer.py(application layer). The builder function correctly imports from the infrastructure layer — this is the right place for those imports.Consistency with existing patterns:
_get_tool_registry_service()is now a one-liner (return get_container().tool_registry_service()), consistent with_get_skill_service()incli/commands/skill.py. The CLI layer uniformly delegates to the container.✅ Interface Contracts (Deep Dive)
Service constructor contract:
_build_tool_registry_serviceconstructsToolRegistryServicewithtool_repoandattachment_repoparameters, correctly satisfying the service's constructor interface.Container provider contract: The
Containerclass exposestool_registry_serviceas a callable Singleton provider, consistent with how all other services are exposed. Callers resolve viacontainer.tool_registry_service().CLI helper contract:
_get_tool_registry_service() -> Anymaintains the same return type as before. TheAnyreturn type is pre-existing and not introduced by this PR.✅ CONTRIBUTING.md Compliance

TDD Scenario 1: Verifies

Containerclass exposes atool_registry_serviceprovider using the realContainerclass — good structural/integration-level verification.Updated existing tests:
validation_cli_uncovered_branches_steps.pycorrectly adapts mock targets to the new container-delegation pattern, ensuring existing branch-coverage scenarios remain aligned.Test location: All tests in
features/directory using Behave/Gherkin ✅Minor Suggestions (Non-blocking)
Return type annotation opportunity:
_get_tool_registry_service()still returns-> Any. Since the function now simply delegates to the container, it could return-> ToolRegistryServicefor better type safety. This is pre-existing and non-blocking.container.py file size: At ~600+ lines,
container.pyexceeds the 500-line guideline. This is a pre-existing concern — the PR adds only ~30 lines following established patterns. Worth noting for future architectural consideration (e.g., splitting into sub-modules by domain area).Decision: APPROVED ✅
The implementation is clean, follows established patterns exactly, and correctly fixes a module boundary violation. Architecture alignment is excellent — the builder function, Singleton registration, and CLI delegation all match the project's established conventions. No issues found in the focus areas.
