task-16	Implement automatic attribute accessors for auxiliary table columns	Done	@assistant	2025-07-13	2025-07-13

Description

Create transparent attribute access methods that make auxiliary table columns appear as native model attributes

Acceptance Criteria

• Getter methods return auxiliary column values
• Setter methods create/update auxiliary records automatically
• Presence check methods work correctly
• Methods are defined lazily using method_missing
• All tests pass

Implementation Notes

Implemented lazy loading attribute accessors using method_missing override. When an auxiliary attribute is accessed (e.g., car.fuel_type), the system checks if it's a valid auxiliary column and dynamically defines the getter, setter, and presence check methods. This follows ActiveRecord's lazy loading pattern and provides transparent access to auxiliary table columns.
