BD.VendorContext.Core

The Vendor Block's domain contract. POCO-only — no B3.CRUD or B3.Messaging dependency — so a Blick can consume it without pulling in the store implementation. See ../_docs/ARCHITECTURE.md.

What's here

• Vendor — the aggregate (PersistableEntity: _id + computed FriendlyID), its field set, validation, and the ToDictionary/FromDictionary mapping to the B3.CRUD row shape.
• VendorType — the fixed domain value set (Inventory / Production / Both).
• Notifications/ — the four published notification shapes (VendorCreated/Updated/Archived/Unarchived), the VendorNotification base + factory, and IVendorNotificationPublication. The type names are the wire contract; the schema is additive-only.
• Configuration/VendorConfiguration — the host-supplied ViewRole / EditRole role names (../_docs/DECISIONS.md §3).
• Exceptions/ — the domain exceptions the API maps to HTTP status codes.
• ApplicationConstants — shared constants a host/Shell reads.

The write and query entry points (IVendorCommands / IVendorQueries) live in BD.VendorContext.DataAccess, which implements them against B3.CRUD; a host wires that up via DI.
