Core Boundary Flow: FLOW-02

Single Agent – Large Plan

Volumetric validation with 20+ steps. Tests protocol handling of large execution plans.

Website Source Model

Actual page source: Website aggregate projection layer in MPLP_website/lib/content/flows.ts.

Upstream provenance: IDs, titles, and boundary classification come from tests/golden/flows/registry.ts; per-flow scenario detail is summarized from the upstream asset tests/golden/flows/flow-02-single-agent-large-plan/README.md. The Docs page is a secondary reference at verified flow reference.

Goal

Validate that the runtime can execute a Plan with 20+ steps while maintaining invariants.

Success Criteria

All 20+ steps complete, Trace is generated, no performance degradation.

Sequence

Execution Steps

Website summary of the scenario sequence represented by this flow.

1

Large Context

Context framing batch processing scenario.

2

Multi-Step Plan

20-30 heterogeneous steps with dependencies.

3

Volumetric Execution

Steps processed with wildcard invariant validation.

4

Trace Verification

Events ordered correctly despite volume.

Core Boundary

Core Flow Scope

This core flow aggregates the published boundary expectations from the following MPLP modules.

Context Module

Context MUST remain stable across volumetric execution.

Plan Module

Large plans (20+ steps) MUST preserve dependency order and step integrity.

Trace Module

Trace events MUST be ordered correctly despite volume.

Validation

Failure Conditions

Execution of this core flow should be treated as outside the published boundary expectations if any of the following conditions occur.

x

Plan cannot handle 20+ steps without schema violations.

x

Step ordering is not preserved during execution.

x

Performance degrades unacceptably with large plans.

x

Trace event ordering becomes incorrect.

Core Published Boundary

FLOW-01~05 form the published v1.0 core boundary. Implementations are expected to satisfy this flow without violating the upstream constraints summarized above.

Failure to satisfy this core flow indicates that the published core-boundary expectations were not met.
