Implements Unit 2 "Offerings" (backend module, admin CRUD UI with drag-and-drop reordering, public GET /api/v1/offerings endpoint) and executes the feature's D-15 CI/CD cutover, switching the deploy pipeline's build/publish target from SlpModularCms.Api to SlpModularCms.Api.SlpSoftware.

NFR Design Patterns — Unit: Offerings
Pattern 1: Transactional Multi-Row Operations (Data Integrity)
Decision (Q1 = A): every OfferingsService operation that touches more than one row in a single logical action runs inside one explicit DB transaction (BeginTransactionAsync/CommitAsync, rolled back on any exception):
- Featured-exclusivity swap (US-10): un-featuring the previously-featured offering and saving the newly-featured one.
- Full reorder (US-08): reassigning
DisplayOrderacross the entire list from the drag-and-drop UI. - Adjacent swap (US-09): swapping
DisplayOrderbetween two neighboring offerings.
Rationale: a crash or connection failure mid-operation must never leave the dataset in an inconsistent state (two offerings both un-featured, duplicate DisplayOrder values). This closes the open item services.md deferred to Functional Design but that was never actually decided there.
Pattern: standard EF Core DbContext.Database.BeginTransactionAsync() wrapping the read-modify-write sequence within each of the three OfferingsService methods (CreateAsync/UpdateAsync when Featured transitions to true, ReorderAsync, MoveUpAsync/MoveDownAsync). Single-row operations (plain create/update without a featured transition, soft-delete) do not need an explicit transaction — a single SaveChangesAsync() call is already atomic.
Pattern 2: Rate Limiting Applied at the Action Level
Decision: [EnableRateLimiting("offerings-public")] is placed on the public GET action method only, following the exact precedent in AuthController ([EnableRateLimiting("login")]/[EnableRateLimiting("refresh")] on individual actions, not the whole controller). OfferingsController's admin mutation actions carry no rate-limiting attribute — consistent with NFR-OFF-01 (Q1 = A) scoping the policy to the public endpoint only.
No new pattern beyond this — the offerings-public policy itself (config-driven FixedWindowLimiter) is already fully specified in tech-stack-decisions.md.
Pattern 3: Audit Logging — Structured Fields
Decision: OfferingsService emits one LogInformation structured log entry per create/update/delete, with these fields: OfferingId (Guid), Action ("Created"/"Updated"/"Deleted"), LastModifiedByUserId (Guid, the same value persisted on the entity). No before/after value diffing — consistent with NFR-OFF-03's accepted scope (minimal audit trail, not a full audit-log table).
No Other New Patterns
Scalability and Performance categories are N/A for this unit (see offerings-nfr-design-plan.md) — no new pattern required beyond what's already covered above and in nfr-requirements.md.
