point facilitator notes at the two solution branches

Steps: (1) OrderLine + computed total — the compiler enumerates the writers,
(2) one-line reconstruction in the two inbound mappers, (3) discount on a
reloaded order + the accepted-loss test. Dry-run verified on a scratch
branch: 98 tests green, diff confined to domain/builder/two mappers.

+# Exercise 2: OrderLines — the domain evolves, the edges don't
+
+> Run `EXERCISE.md` first (or apply its solution from the
+> `exercise-1-solution` branch): this exercise continues from that state.
+
+You are in the "after" situation: plain domain objects, two mapping families
+out of the domain (DTOs for transport, `*Data` records for persistence), and
+test data builders so tests don't reach into domain construction. The order
+total is a stored `int TotalInCents`.
+
+The scenario: orders should consist of **order lines** — each with its own
+description and amount. The total becomes *derived* data: the sum of the
+lines. And here is the point of the exercise — the persistence framework and
+the DTO keep their flat shape (one `Description`, one `TotalInCents` per
+order), so the domain changes while **nothing at the edges does**: same DTO,
+same storage row, same WebApp.
+
+## The trick, and the accepted loss
+
+Storage holds one flat row per order. Reading an order back therefore
+reconstructs it with **one synthetic order line**: description and amount
+taken from the row's `Description` and `TotalInCents`. Calculation (discount,
+totals) then just works on reloaded orders.
+
+The honest limitation: an order with **more than one line** cannot round-trip
+through storage — saving flattens it, reading back collapses it to one line.
+That is fine as long as multi-line orders never reach the front-end. The
+exercise includes a test that documents this loss instead of hiding it.
+
+Work through the three steps — each is one instruction for a coding agent.
+Run the tests after each step:
+
+```sh
+scripts/run-tests.sh
+```
+
+## Step 1 — introduce OrderLines (and meet the compiler)
+
+In `src/After`:
+
+1. Add an `OrderLine` — a plain, mutable domain type in the same style as
+   `Order`/`Client` (only the DTOs are records):
+
+   ```csharp
+   public class OrderLine(string description, int amountInCents)
+   {
+       public string Description { get; set; } = description;
+       public int AmountInCents { get; set; } = amountInCents;
+   }
+   ```
+
+2. In `Order`: keep `Description` (it stays stored — it is the order-level
+   description), add `public List<OrderLine> Lines { get; } = [];`, and turn
+   the total into a computed property (delete the stored one):
+
+   ```csharp
+   public int TotalInCents => Lines.Sum(line => line.AmountInCents);
+   ```
+
+3. Update `OrderBuilder`: `WithTotal` must keep its API but can no longer set
+   a computed total. Store the request and express it in `Build()` as a single
+   line carrying the order's description — so `WithDescription`/`WithTotal`
+   work in any order:
+
+   ```csharp
+   private int? _totalInCents;
+   public OrderBuilder WithTotal(int totalInCents) { _totalInCents = totalInCents; return this; }
+   public Order Build()
+   {
+       if (_totalInCents is int total)
+           _order.Lines.Add(new OrderLine(_order.Description, total));
+       return _order;
+   }
+   ```
+
+Now build. The compiler enumerates every remaining *writer* of the total —
+exactly two, both **inbound** mappers (`Mappers.FromOrderDto` and
+`Mappers.FromOrderData`). Everything that only *reads* the total —
+`ToOrderDto`, `ToOrderData`, `DiscountCalculator`, the WebApp — compiles
+untouched. That is the whole lesson in one compiler output.
+
+One test also writes the total (`order.TotalInCents = 99_00` in
+`Saving_again_refreshes_the_row_instead_of_duplicating_it`); fix it now by
+mutating through the new domain API instead: `order.Lines[0].AmountInCents = 99_00;`
+
+Acceptance: the **only** remaining build errors are the two inbound mappers.
+
+## Step 2 — reconstruct instead of write
+
+A DTO (and a storage row) carries one description and one flat total, so the
+reconstructed order is an order with **one line** — derived data cannot be
+written, only re-derived. In both `Mappers.FromOrderDto` (`UnmapOrder`) and
+`Mappers.FromOrderData`: keep the field copies as they are, drop the
+`TotalInCents = ...` assignment, and after creating the order add
+
+```csharp
+order.Lines.Add(new OrderLine(dto.Description, dto.TotalInCents));   // dto / row respectively
+```
+
+(always exactly one line — even for a zero total — so the reconstruction is
+deterministic). `DbContext.LoadOrder` / `LoadClient` need no changes.
+
+Acceptance: the full suite is green again, and `git diff --stat` shows the
+change confined to the domain, the builder, that one test, and the two
+inbound mapper bodies — `OrderDto`, `OrderData`, `DbContext`, `WebApp`, and
+the outbound mappers are untouched.
+
+## Step 3 — prove it: discount a reloaded order, and document the loss
+
+Create `tests/BeforeAfter.Tests/OrderLinesEvolutionTests.cs` from the stub
+below and make both tests pass:
+
+```csharp
+using After;
+using static BeforeAfter.Tests.TestData.ClientBuilder;
+using static BeforeAfter.Tests.TestData.OrderBuilder;
+
+namespace BeforeAfter.Tests;
+
+/// <summary>
+/// EXERCISE 2 — the domain gained OrderLines; persistence still stores one
+/// flat row per order. Make these tests pass (see EXERCISE2.md).
+/// </summary>
+public class OrderLinesEvolutionTests
+{
+    [Fact] // EXERCISE STEP 3a
+    public void A_reloaded_order_can_be_discounted()
+    {
+        var db = new DbContext();
+        var order = ValidOrder().WithDescription("big order").WithTotal(150_00).Build();
+        var client = ValidClient().WithName("Acme").WithOrder(order).Build();
+        db.Save(client);
+        db.Save(order);
+
+        Order loaded = null!;   // TODO (step 3a): load the order back from the context
+
+        // The discount must work off the computed total of the RELOADED order:
+        var discounted = DiscountCalculator.CalculateDiscount(
+            loaded, discountBarrierCents: 100_00, discountPercentage: 10);
+
+        Assert.Equal(135_00, discounted.DiscountedTotalInCents);
+        Assert.Equal(10, discounted.DiscountPercentage);
+    }
+
+    [Fact] // EXERCISE STEP 3b — the accepted loss
+    public void A_multi_line_order_flattens_to_a_single_line_when_stored()
+    {
+        var db = new DbContext();
+        var order = ValidOrder().WithDescription("mixed order").Build();
+        order.Lines.Add(new OrderLine("first item", 100_00));
+        order.Lines.Add(new OrderLine("second item", 50_00));
+
+        db.Save(order);
+
+        Order loaded = null!;   // TODO (step 3b): load the order back from the context
+
+        // Storage flattened the order: one line, the flat total, and the
+        // order-level description. Document this — don't hide it.
+        var line = Assert.Single(loaded.Lines);
+        Assert.Equal(150_00, line.AmountInCents);
+        Assert.Equal("mixed order", line.Description);
+    }
+}
+```
+
+Acceptance: the whole suite is green — including Exercise 1's tests
+(`DiscountedOrderMappingTests`), which keep passing unchanged: the discount
+flow reads the computed total exactly as it read the stored one.
+
+## Facilitator notes
+
+- Trainer's solutions live on the `exercise-1-solution` and
+  `exercise-2-solution` branches — keep them off the participant path.
+
+- Expected diff per step: (1) `OrderLine` + `Order.Lines` + computed total +
+  builder internals + one test line — build red in exactly the two inbound
+  mappers; (2) two one-line reconstructions — green again; (3) two new tests.
+  If `git diff` touches `OrderDto`, `OrderData`, `DbContext`, `WebApp`, or the
+  outbound mappers, something went off the small-steps path.
+- The `WithTotal` pain the builder absorbs: internally it now fabricates a
+  line; no test noticed. That is the TestDataBuilder dividend.
+- Discussion points: what the next evolution would look like with a real
+  database (`order_line` rows and a foreign key — the persistence contract
+  would finally change, and only then); why the DTO cannot carry lines back
+  into the domain honestly (derived data is re-derived on the way in, never
+  transported); what the user of a reloaded multi-line order actually gets
+  (the flat total under the order's description) and why that must stay away
+  from the front-end.
+- `Before` stays untouched throughout — its Active Record world would have
+  needed a schema change on day one, which is the contrast this exercise
+  series is built on.
