I think you have 3 choices; 1. You can use the metaInfo() feature. That means you call setMetaInfo() on the ServiceDeclaration in assembly, and can retrieve it from the ServiceComposite.metaInfo() method. I vaguely remember that metaInfo set during assembly will also be used to populate @Uses, but I would need to check that to be sure... Rickard? 2. You can move the Service lifecycle outside of Qi4j, and do importServices() instead of addServices(). 3. After you have activated your application, you can query the Application for a Module and from the Module you can ask for a ServiceFinder and that way engage the Qi4j application from code outside the Qi4j Runtime.
