✨ Refactor NATS consumer management by introducing a dedicated ConsumerManager and StreamManager for lifecycle management. Enhance error handling with a new ErrorHandler to streamline message processing and recovery logic. Update consumer initialization to utilize the new managers, improving code organization and maintainability. Add comprehensive tests for the new components to ensure reliability and robustness in handling NATS operations.

-# Repository Guidelines
+# Agent Guidelines for CAATSM Repository
 
-## Project Structure & Module Organization
-Application entry lives in `cmd/main`, while Clean Architecture layers live under `internal` (`domain`, `app`, `adapter`, and `infra`). Shared wiring and compiled providers sit in `pkg/di`, configs in `configs/config.<env>.toml`, docs in `docs`, and reusable test fixtures in `test`. Keep new assets near the layer they extend (e.g., new parsers in `internal/adapter/parser`).
+## Build/Test Commands
+- **Build**: `make build` or `task build` (compiles to `bin/receiver`)
+- **Run dev**: `make run-dev` or `task run-dev` (uses `configs/config.dev.toml`)
+- **Lint**: `make lint` or `task lint` (golangci-lint required)
+- **Unit tests**: `make test` (Ginkgo) or `ginkgo -r -v ./path/to/package` for single test
+- **Integration tests**: `make test-int` (requires Docker)
+- **All tests**: `make test-all`
+- **Coverage**: `make coverage` (target: maintain >80% coverage)
 
-## Build, Test, and Development Commands
-- `make build` / `task build` — compile `./cmd/main` into `bin/receiver` with Wire-generated deps.
-- `make run-dev` / `task run-dev` — run with `GO_ENV=dev`, respecting `configs/config.dev.toml`.
-- `make lint` / `task lint` — execute `golangci-lint` with the repository config.
-- `make test`, `make test-int`, `make test-all` — run Ginkgo unit suites, integration suites (`test/integration`), or both.
-- `make coverage` — produce `coverage/coverage.html`; open it before merging substantial changes.
-
-## Coding Style & Naming Conventions
-Stick to idiomatic Go: tabs for indentation, `camelCase` for locals, `CamelCase` for exported APIs, and package names that match their directory. Always run `gofmt`/`goimports` (or rely on `go fmt ./...`) before opening a PR. Generated files belong under `/pkg/di` (Wire) or the directory they serve; never hand-edit `wire_gen.go`. Linting via `golangci-lint` is required before submission.
+## Code Style Guidelines
+- **Formatting**: Use tabs, `go fmt ./...` or `goimports` before commits
+- **Naming**: `camelCase` for locals/unexported, `CamelCase` for exported; package names match directories
+- **Imports**: Standard library → third-party → internal (alphabetized within groups)
+- **Types**: Use interfaces for ports, appropriate Go types; avoid `any` unless necessary
+- **Error handling**: Wrap errors with context, use `errors.Is()` for checking
+- **Generated code**: Never edit `/pkg/di/wire_gen.go` or other generated files
+- **Linting**: `golangci-lint run ./...` required; fix all issues before PR
 
 ## Testing Guidelines
-Unit specs live next to implementation files as `*_test.go` and rely on Ginkgo; keep descriptions declarative ("should parse DEP messages"). Integration suites in `test/integration` spin up NATS and TimescaleDB via Testcontainers; run them locally with Docker. Target coverage is whatever `make coverage` reports for the touched packages—raise regressions above 80% when practical.
+- **Unit tests**: Ginkgo BDD style next to implementation (`*_test.go`); declarative descriptions
+- **Integration**: Testcontainers in `test/integration`; spin up NATS/TimescaleDB
+- **Coverage**: Run `make coverage` before merging; address regressions
 
-## Commit & Pull Request Guidelines
-Follow the existing history style: optional emoji prefix + imperative summary (e.g., `✨ Add telemetry recorder`). Reference tickets in the body (`Refs #123`) and explain config or schema migrations explicitly. Pull requests must describe the change, include relevant commands/logs, attach screenshots for dashboard updates, and call out any new flags or environment variables.
-
-## Security & Configuration Tips
-Store secrets in environment variables (`CAATSM_*`) rather than committing them. When introducing new configuration keys, update the matching `configs/config.<env>.toml` and document overrides in `README.md`. Review `docker-compose.dev.yml` before running integration tests to ensure local services are isolated from production infrastructure.
+## Architecture
+- **Structure**: Clean Architecture - `domain` (business logic), `app` (use cases), `adapter` (I/O), `infra` (framework deps)
+- **Entry point**: `cmd/main`
+- **Config**: `configs/config.<env>.toml`; secrets via `CAATSM_*` env vars
