+# Thalos DAL Package Consumption Baseline
+
+## Objective
+
+Remove cross-repo source coupling from `Thalos.DAL` and consume shared contracts through NuGet packages.
+
+## Applied Baseline
+
+`Thalos.DAL.csproj` now consumes:
+
+- `BuildingBlock.Identity.Contracts` `0.1.0-decouple.20260225140619`
+- `Core.Blueprint.Common` `0.1.1-decouple.20260225143446` (runtime-enabled baseline)
+
+## Feed Configuration
+
+Repository-level `nuget.config` includes:
+
+- `gitea-org`: `http://192.168.68.156:3000/api/packages/AgileWebs/nuget/index.json`
+- `nuget.org`
+
+Because feed is currently HTTP, `allowInsecureConnections="true"` is required for the Gitea source.
+
+## Boundary Notes
+
+- No cross-repo `ProjectReference` remains in `src/Thalos.DAL/Thalos.DAL.csproj`.
+- DAL retains technical/provider ownership only.
