## Summary

This PR extracts handler creation logic from `bootstrap.ts` into a dedicated `handler-setup.ts` module. The refactoring follows solid TypeScript practices with proper type safety.

## [RED] Issues in Your Changes (BLOCKING)

**None identified.** The TypeScript compiler passes with no errors under strict mode.

---

## [WARNING] Issues in Code You Touched (Should Fix)

### 1. Type Assertion in getDependency Function (LOW)

**File**: `/workspace/delegate/src/services/handler-setup.ts`  
**Line**: 72  
**Code**:
```typescript
return ok(result.value as T);
```

**Issue**: Uses `as T` type assertion without runtime validation.

**Analysis**: This is a deliberate design trade-off in the existing codebase. The Container's `get()` method returns `Result<T>` but internally stores services as `any`. The type assertion here is acceptable because:
1. The Container registration uses `registerValue<T>()` with explicit types
2. Service keys are string literals that map to specific types
3. Adding runtime validation would require a type registry or schema system

**Recommendation**: ACCEPTABLE - This pattern is consistent with the existing Container implementation (line 158 in container.ts) and represents a known trade-off for simplicity over full runtime type safety.

### 2. Type Assertions in bootstrap.ts (LOW)

**File**: `/workspace/delegate/src/bootstrap.ts`  
**Lines**: 84, 97  
**Code**:
```typescript
// Line 84
return result.value as T;

// Line 97  
return ok(result.value as T);
```

**Issue**: Same pattern as above - type assertions without runtime validation.

**Analysis**: These are in helper functions (`getFromContainer`, `getFromContainerSafe`) that are not part of this PR's changes. They are pre-existing patterns.

**Recommendation**: ACCEPTABLE - Pre-existing code, consistent with codebase conventions.

### 3. Test File Uses `as any` (LOW)

**File**: `/workspace/delegate/tests/unit/services/handler-setup.test.ts`  
**Line**: 189  
**Code**:
```typescript
const subscriptionCount = (eventBus as any).handlers?.size ?? 0;
```

**Issue**: Uses `as any` to access internal property of EventBus for testing.

**Analysis**: This is a test implementation detail to verify handler subscriptions without exposing internals through a public API.

**Recommendation**: ACCEPTABLE for tests - Consider adding a test helper method to InMemoryEventBus like `getSubscriptionCount(): number` for cleaner testing. However, this does not block the PR.

---

## [INFO] Pre-existing Issues (Not Blocking)

### 1. Container Service Type Storage

**File**: `/workspace/delegate/src/core/container.ts`  
**Line**: 10  
**Code**:
```typescript
type Service = { factory: Factory<any>; singleton: boolean; instance?: any };
```

**Issue**: Uses `any` for service factory and instance storage.

**Analysis**: This is the root cause of type assertions throughout the DI system. A fully type-safe container would require either:
1. A Map with branded types
2. A type registry pattern
3. Generic container with type tokens

**Recommendation**: INFORMATIONAL - This is architectural tech debt that could be addressed in a future refactor but is out of scope for this PR.

### 2. Test Double Uses `as any` in Multiple Places

**File**: `/workspace/delegate/tests/fixtures/test-doubles.ts`  
**Lines**: 36, 88, 132, 361  
**Code examples**:
```typescript
// Line 36
private handlers = new Map<string, Set<(event: any) => Promise<void>>>();

// Line 88
this.handlers.get(eventType)!.add(handler as any);
```

**Analysis**: Test doubles use `any` for flexibility in mocking. This is standard practice for test code.

**Recommendation**: INFORMATIONAL - Test code, acceptable for testing purposes.

## Type Safety Analysis

### Positive Patterns Identified

1. **Explicit Interface Definition** (handler-setup.ts:37-48):
```typescript
export interface HandlerDependencies {
  readonly config: Configuration;
  readonly logger: Logger;
  readonly eventBus: EventBus;
  // ... all properties explicitly typed with readonly
}
```

2. **Result Type Usage** (handler-setup.ts:63, 84, 142):
```typescript
function getDependency<T>(container: Container, key: string): Result<T>
export function extractHandlerDependencies(container: Container): Result<HandlerDependencies>
export async function setupEventHandlers(deps: HandlerDependencies): Promise<Result<HandlerSetupResult>>
```

3. **Generic Type Parameter Constraint** (handler-setup.ts:60-63):
```typescript
function getDependency<T>(
  container: Container,
  key: string
): Result<T>
```

4. **Proper Error Wrapping** (handler-setup.ts:66-70):
```typescript
return err(new DelegateError(
  ErrorCode.DEPENDENCY_INJECTION_FAILED,
  `Handler setup requires '${key}' service`,
  { service: key, error: result.error.message }
));
```

5. **Readonly Return Types** (handler-setup.ts:53-55):
```typescript
export interface HandlerSetupResult {
  readonly registry: EventHandlerRegistry;
}
```

### TypeScript Best Practices Adherence

| Practice | Status |
|----------|--------|
| Strict mode compilation | PASS |
| No implicit `any` | PASS |
| Result types for errors | PASS |
| Explicit return types | PASS |
| Interface segregation | PASS |
| Readonly by default | PASS |
| No unused variables | PASS |
| No unused imports | PASS |

## Test Coverage Analysis

The new test file (`handler-setup.test.ts`) covers:

1. **extractHandlerDependencies**:
   - Complete container with all dependencies
   - Missing config error handling
   - Missing logger error handling  
   - Missing eventBus error handling
   - Missing taskRepository error handling

2. **setupEventHandlers**:
   - Successful handler creation and setup
   - Registry lifecycle management (shutdown)
   - Correct handler count (6 standard + 1 DependencyHandler)
   - Success logging verification

**Tests Pass**: All 9 tests pass.

## Summary Statistics

**Your Changes**:
- [RED] CRITICAL: 0
- [RED] HIGH: 0
- [WARNING] MEDIUM: 0
- [WARNING] LOW: 3 (all acceptable trade-offs)

**Pre-existing Issues**:
- [INFO] MEDIUM: 1 (Container `any` storage)
- [INFO] LOW: 1 (Test double `any` usage)

**TypeScript Score**: 9/10

Deductions:
- -1 point for type assertions without runtime validation (acceptable trade-off for DI simplicity)

---

## Merge Recommendation

**[CHECKMARK] APPROVED**

This PR demonstrates excellent TypeScript practices:

1. **Type Safety**: All new code uses explicit types with proper Result handling
2. **Architecture**: Clean extraction following existing patterns
3. **Testing**: Comprehensive test coverage for new functionality
4. **Consistency**: Follows existing codebase conventions

The identified issues are either:
- Pre-existing patterns in the codebase
- Acceptable trade-offs for DI simplicity
- Test-only code

No blocking issues were introduced by this PR.

## Reviewer Notes

1. The `as T` type assertion pattern is inherited from the Container design. A future PR could introduce a type-safe container, but that is out of scope here.

2. The test file's `as any` usage for accessing internal EventBus state is standard test practice. Consider adding a public test helper method in a future tech debt cleanup.

3. All TypeScript strict mode checks pass.

4. The refactoring improves maintainability by extracting 140+ lines of handler setup code into a dedicated, testable module.
