Add CMFRT coding standards documentation and examples
- Introduced guidelines for "one codeunit one global function" architecture to enforce single responsibility in AL code. - Added best practices and anti-patterns for adding parameters via overloads to maintain backward compatibility. - Documented the importance of never deleting members in AL and always marking them as obsolete. - Established the requirement for OnBefore and OnAfter integration events for global procedures to enhance extensibility. - Defined naming conventions for CMFRT objects, including prefixes and object ID ranges to avoid conflicts. - Implemented patterns for case statements to ensure all cases are handled, including the necessity of an else clause. - Introduced the interface injection pattern to allow pluggable operations in table-level code. - Recommended using Confirm Management for user confirmations to improve testability. - Established a three-permission set pattern for security to ensure proper access control. - Created a review skill for CMFRT AL standards to automate compliance checks against established guidelines.

# CMFRT three-permission-set pattern
|
||||
|
||||
## Description
|
||||
|
||||
Every CMFRT functional module must ship exactly three permission set objects: an Objects set, a Read set, and an Edit set. The Objects set lists every AL object the module owns — tables, pages, codeunits, reports, interfaces — with `X` (execute) access. The Read set includes the Objects set via `IncludedPermissionSets` and grants `tabledata = R` on each table. The Edit set includes the Read set and grants `tabledata = IMD` on each writable table. All three sets have `Assignable = true`. Names follow the pattern `"CMFRT <ABBR> Objects"`, `"CMFRT <ABBR> Read"`, and `"CMFRT <ABBR> Edit"`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Best Practice
|
||||
|
||||
Define the sets in the strict composition chain Objects ← Read ← Edit so that object access is declared once and inherited. When a new table is added to the module, update the Objects set and the tabledata entries in Read and Edit — there is no risk of the object access drifting between roles because the chain is the single source of truth for it.
|
||||
|
||||
See sample: `cmfrt-three-permissionset-pattern.good.al`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Anti Pattern
|
||||
|
||||
Shipping fewer than three permission sets, omitting `IncludedPermissionSets` and enumerating the same object list in each set by hand, or granting `RIMD` access in a flat set that cannot be composed. Flat role sets that enumerate objects independently drift apart when tables are added or removed, and the resulting authorization gap is invisible until a user reports an access error in production.
