AI Coding Instructions

• Treat AutoMapper.Net4 as a server-side dependency configured through Pams.API.csproj.
• Keep mapping configuration in the API layer where domain models are converted to DTOs.
• Do not expose domain entities directly from API endpoints when a mapped DTO is expected.
• Check existing mapping profiles before adding mappings for new request or response types.
