2. **Event Publishing** - Commands publish domain events
3. **Event Listener Pattern** - UserBannedListener shows template
4. **Logger Service** - Pino with PII redaction
5. **Exception Handling** - Global filter + domain exceptions
6. **Repository Pattern** - Admin module shows clear interface/implementation separation
7. **CQRS Module** - CqrsModule.forRoot() in app.module.ts
8. **DI System** - Clear Symbol-based token pattern

### ❌ Not Yet Implemented
1. **AuditLog Prisma Model** - Database table needed
