+## Model Definition
+
+Apply `@Model` to a **class** (not struct). Generates `PersistentModel`, `Observable`, `Sendable`.
+
+```swift
+@Model
+class Trip {
+    var name: String
+    var destination: String
+    var startDate: Date
+    var endDate: Date
+    var isFavorite: Bool = false
+    @Attribute(.externalStorage) var imageData: Data?
+    @Relationship(deleteRule: .cascade, inverse: \LivingAccommodation.trip)
+    var accommodation: LivingAccommodation?
+    @Transient var isSelected: Bool = false  // Always provide default
+
+    init(name: String, destination: String, startDate: Date, endDate: Date) {
+        self.name = name; self.destination = destination
+        self.startDate = startDate; self.endDate = endDate
+    }
+}
+```
+
+**@Attribute options**: `.externalStorage`, `.unique`, `.spotlight`, `.allowsCloudEncryption`, `.preserveValueOnDeletion` (iOS 18+), `.ephemeral`, `.transformable(by:)`. Rename: `@Attribute(originalName: "old_name")`.
+
+**@Relationship**: `deleteRule:` `.cascade`/`.nullify`(default)/`.deny`/`.noAction`. Specify `inverse:` for reliable behavior. Unidirectional (iOS 18+): `inverse: nil`.
+
+**#Unique (iOS 18+)**: `#Unique<Person>([\.firstName, \.lastName])` -- compound uniqueness.
+
+**Inheritance (iOS 26+)**: `@Model class BusinessTrip: Trip { var company: String }`.
+
+Supported types: `Bool`, `Int`/`UInt` variants, `Float`, `Double`, `String`, `Date`, `Data`, `URL`, `UUID`, `Decimal`, `Array`, `Dictionary`, `Set`, `Codable` enums, `Codable` structs (composite, iOS 18+), relationships to `@Model` classes.
+
+## ModelContainer Setup
+
+```swift
+// Basic
+let container = try ModelContainer(for: Trip.self, LivingAccommodation.self)
+
+// Configured
+let config = ModelConfiguration("Store", isStoredInMemoryOnly: false,
+    groupContainer: .identifier("group.com.example.app"),
+    cloudKitDatabase: .private("iCloud.com.example.app"))
+let container = try ModelContainer(for: Trip.self, configurations: config)
+
+// With migration plan
+let container = try ModelContainer(for: SchemaV2.Trip.self,
+    migrationPlan: TripMigrationPlan.self)
+
+// In-memory (previews/tests)
+let container = try ModelContainer(for: Trip.self,
+    configurations: ModelConfiguration(isStoredInMemoryOnly: true))
+```
+
+## CRUD Operations
+
+```swift
+// CREATE
+let trip = Trip(name: "Summer", destination: "Paris", startDate: .now, endDate: .now + 86400*7)
+modelContext.insert(trip)
+try modelContext.save()  // or rely on autosave
+
+// READ
+let trips = try modelContext.fetch(FetchDescriptor<Trip>(
+    predicate: #Predicate { $0.destination == "Paris" },
+    sortBy: [SortDescriptor(\.startDate)]))
+
+// UPDATE -- modify properties directly; autosave handles persistence
+trip.destination = "Rome"
+
+// DELETE
+modelContext.delete(trip)
+try modelContext.delete(model: Trip.self, where: #Predicate { $0.isFavorite == false })
+
+// TRANSACTION (atomic)
+try modelContext.transaction {
+    modelContext.insert(trip); trip.isFavorite = true
+}
+```
+
+## @Query in SwiftUI
+
+```swift
+struct TripListView: View {
+    @Query(filter: #Predicate<Trip> { $0.isFavorite == true },
+           sort: \.startDate, order: .reverse)
+    private var favorites: [Trip]
+
+    var body: some View { List(favorites) { trip in Text(trip.name) } }
+}
+
+// Dynamic query via init
+struct SearchView: View {
+    @Query private var trips: [Trip]
+    init(search: String) {
+        _trips = Query(filter: #Predicate<Trip> { trip in
+            search.isEmpty || trip.name.localizedStandardContains(search)
+        }, sort: [SortDescriptor(\.name)])
+    }
+    var body: some View { List(trips) { trip in Text(trip.name) } }
+}
+
+// FetchDescriptor query
+struct RecentView: View {
+    static var desc: FetchDescriptor<Trip> {
+        var d = FetchDescriptor<Trip>(sortBy: [SortDescriptor(\.startDate)])
+        d.fetchLimit = 5; return d
+    }
+    @Query(RecentView.desc) private var recent: [Trip]
+    var body: some View { List(recent) { trip in Text(trip.name) } }
+}
+```
+
+## #Predicate
+
+```swift
+#Predicate<Trip> { $0.destination.localizedStandardContains("paris") }  // String
+#Predicate<Trip> { $0.startDate > Date.now }                            // Date
+#Predicate<Trip> { $0.isFavorite && $0.destination != "Unknown" }       // Compound
+#Predicate<Trip> { $0.accommodation?.name != nil }                      // Optional
+#Predicate<Trip> { $0.tags.contains { $0.name == "adventure" } }        // Collection
+```
+
+Supported: `==`, `!=`, `<`, `<=`, `>`, `>=`, `&&`, `||`, `!`, `contains()`, `allSatisfy()`, `filter()`, `starts(with:)`, `localizedStandardContains()`, `caseInsensitiveCompare()`, arithmetic, ternary, optional chaining, nil coalescing, type casting. **Not supported**: flow control, nested declarations, arbitrary method calls.
+
+## FetchDescriptor
+
+```swift
+var d = FetchDescriptor<Trip>(predicate: ..., sortBy: [...])
+d.fetchLimit = 20; d.fetchOffset = 0
+d.includePendingChanges = true
+d.propertiesToFetch = [\.name, \.startDate]
+d.relationshipKeyPathsForPrefetching = [\.accommodation]
+let trips = try modelContext.fetch(d)
+let count = try modelContext.fetchCount(d)
+let ids = try modelContext.fetchIdentifiers(d)
+try modelContext.enumerate(d, batchSize: 1000) { trip in trip.isProcessed = true }
+```
+
+## Schema Versioning and Migration
+
+```swift
+enum SchemaV1: VersionedSchema {
+    static var versionIdentifier = Schema.Version(1, 0, 0)
+    static var models: [any PersistentModel.Type] { [Trip.self] }
+    @Model class Trip { var name: String; init(name: String) { self.name = name } }
+}
+
+enum SchemaV2: VersionedSchema {
+    static var versionIdentifier = Schema.Version(2, 0, 0)
+    static var models: [any PersistentModel.Type] { [Trip.self] }
+    @Model class Trip {
+        var name: String; var startDate: Date?  // New property
+        init(name: String) { self.name = name }
+    }
+}
+
+enum TripMigrationPlan: SchemaMigrationPlan {
+    static var schemas: [any VersionedSchema.Type] { [SchemaV1.self, SchemaV2.self] }
+    static var stages: [MigrationStage] { [migrateV1toV2] }
+    static let migrateV1toV2 = MigrationStage.lightweight(
+        fromVersion: SchemaV1.self, toVersion: SchemaV2.self)
+}
+
+// Custom migration for data transformation
+static let migrateV2toV3 = MigrationStage.custom(
+    fromVersion: SchemaV2.self, toVersion: SchemaV3.self,
+    willMigrate: nil,
+    didMigrate: { context in
+        let trips = try context.fetch(FetchDescriptor<SchemaV3.Trip>())
+        for trip in trips { trip.displayName = trip.name.capitalized }
+        try context.save()
+    })
+```
+
+Lightweight handles: adding optional/defaulted properties, renaming (`originalName`), removing properties, adding model types.
+
+## Concurrency (@ModelActor)
+
+```swift
+@ModelActor
+actor DataHandler {
+    func importTrips(_ records: [TripRecord]) throws {
+        for r in records {
+            modelContext.insert(Trip(name: r.name, destination: r.dest,
+                                    startDate: r.start, endDate: r.end))
+        }
+        try modelContext.save()  // Always save explicitly in @ModelActor
+    }
+
+    func process(tripID: PersistentIdentifier) throws {
+        guard let trip = self[tripID, as: Trip.self] else { return }
+        trip.isProcessed = true; try modelContext.save()
+    }
+}
+
+let handler = DataHandler(modelContainer: container)
+try await handler.importTrips(records)
+```
+
+**Rules**: `ModelContainer` is `Sendable`. `ModelContext` is NOT -- use on its creating actor. Pass `PersistentIdentifier` (Sendable) across boundaries. Never pass `@Model` objects across actors.
+
+## SwiftUI Integration
+
+```swift
+@main
+struct MyApp: App {
+    var body: some Scene {
+        WindowGroup { ContentView() }
+            .modelContainer(for: [Trip.self, LivingAccommodation.self])
+    }
+}
+
+struct DetailView: View {
+    @Environment(\.modelContext) private var modelContext
+    let trip: Trip
+    var body: some View {
+        Text(trip.name)
+        Button("Delete") { modelContext.delete(trip) }
+    }
+}
+
+#Preview {
+    let config = ModelConfiguration(isStoredInMemoryOnly: true)
+    let container = try! ModelContainer(for: Trip.self, configurations: config)
+    container.mainContext.insert(Trip(name: "Preview", destination: "London",
+        startDate: .now, endDate: .now + 86400))
+    return TripListView().modelContainer(container)
+}
+```
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+**1. @Model on struct** -- Use class. `@Model` requires reference semantics.
+
+**2. @Transient without default** -- Always provide default: `@Transient var x: Bool = false`.
+
+**3. Missing .modelContainer** -- @Query returns empty without a container on the view hierarchy.
+
+**4. Passing model objects across actors:**
+```swift
+// WRONG: await handler.process(trip: trip)
+// CORRECT: await handler.process(tripID: trip.persistentModelID)
+```
+
+**5. ModelContext on wrong actor:**
+```swift
+// WRONG: Task.detached { context.fetch(...) }
+// CORRECT: Use @ModelActor for background work
+```
+
+**6. Unsupported #Predicate expressions:**
+```swift
+// WRONG: #Predicate<Trip> { $0.name.uppercased() == "PARIS" }
+// CORRECT: #Predicate<Trip> { $0.name.localizedStandardContains("paris") }
+```
+
+**7. Flow control in #Predicate:**
+```swift
+// WRONG: #Predicate<Trip> { for tag in $0.tags { ... } }
+// CORRECT: #Predicate<Trip> { $0.tags.contains { $0.name == "x" } }
+```
+
+**8. No save in @ModelActor** -- Always call `try modelContext.save()` explicitly.
+
+**9. ObservableObject with @Model** -- Never use `ObservableObject`/`@Published`. `@Model` generates `Observable`. Use `@Query` in views.
+
+**10. Non-optional relationship without default:**
+```swift
+// WRONG: var accommodation: LivingAccommodation  // crashes on reconstitution
+// CORRECT: var accommodation: LivingAccommodation?
+```
+
+**11. Cascade without inverse** -- Specify `inverse:` for reliable cascade delete behavior.
+
+**12. DispatchQueue for background data work:**
+```swift
+// WRONG: DispatchQueue.global().async { ModelContext(container).fetch(...) }
+// CORRECT: @ModelActor actor Handler { func fetch() throws { ... } }
+```
+
+## Review Checklist
+
+- [ ] Every `@Model` is a class with a designated initializer
+- [ ] All `@Transient` properties have default values
+- [ ] Relationships specify `deleteRule` and `inverse`
+- [ ] `.modelContainer` attached at scene/root view level
+- [ ] `@Query` used for reactive data display in SwiftUI
+- [ ] `#Predicate` uses only supported operators
+- [ ] Background work uses `@ModelActor`
+- [ ] `PersistentIdentifier` used across actor boundaries
+- [ ] Schema changes have `VersionedSchema` + `SchemaMigrationPlan`
+- [ ] Large data uses `@Attribute(.externalStorage)`
+- [ ] CloudKit models use optionals and avoid unique constraints
+- [ ] Explicit `save()` in `@ModelActor` methods
+- [ ] Previews use `ModelConfiguration(isStoredInMemoryOnly: true)`
+- [ ] `@Model` classes accessed from SwiftUI views are on `@MainActor` via `@ModelActor` or MainActor isolation
