Description

The controllers should not be calling the repos directly. Instead they should call a service method. The service layer should be the layer calling the repo.

As such the task is to go through all controllers and update repository calls to be service calls. If the method does not exist in the service a wrapper service method should be created.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Identify all controller files in the project. For each controller method that directly calls a repository (e.g., `$this >repo >method()`), locate the corresponding service class (if any). If the service already has a method that wraps the repo call, replace the direct repo call with the service method. If no such service method exists, create a new method in the appropriate service that delegates to the repository, then update the controller to use the service. Ensure that the service is injected into the controller. Test that the application still works after changes.
