# Workflow Lifecycle Operator Docs Implementation Plan
|
||||
|
||||
> **For agentic workers:** REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: Use superpowers:subagent-driven-development (recommended) or superpowers:executing-plans to implement this plan task-by-task. Steps use checkbox (`- [ ]`) syntax for tracking.
|
||||
|
||||
**Goal:** Make the MCP-facing workflow lifecycle understandable end-to-end for LLM clients and human operators.
|
||||
|
||||
**Architecture:** This is a documentation and schema-test pass, not a runtime redesign. The docs should describe the current stable workflow control surface: discover capabilities, create a draft workspace, save an artifact, save/validate/delete a deployment, run, inspect trace slices, and resume interrupted durable runs. Keep examples aligned with the actual MCP tool names and current compact-response philosophy.
|
||||
|
||||
**Tech Stack:** Markdown docs, Python tests, FastMCP tool metadata, `uv run pytest`, `uv run ruff`, `uv run basedpyright --level error`.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Scope
|
||||
|
||||
Implement documentation for the current workflow lifecycle. Do not add new MCP tools unless a test proves a documented flow cannot be expressed with existing tools.
|
||||
|
||||
Current tools to document as primary path:
|
||||
|
||||
- `wf.workflow.list_capabilities`
|
||||
- `wf.workflow.inspect_capability`
|
||||
- `wf.workflow.create_draft_workspace_from_capability`
|
||||
- `wf.workflow.patch_draft_workspace`
|
||||
- `wf.workflow.validate_draft_workspace`
|
||||
- `wf.workflow.create_artifact_from_workspace`
|
||||
- `wf.workflow.save_deployment`
|
||||
- `wf.workflow.validate_deployment`
|
||||
- `wf.workflow.run_deployment`
|
||||
- `wf.workflow.inspect_run`
|
||||
- `wf.workflow.read_run_trace`
|
||||
- `wf.workflow.resume_run`
|
||||
- `wf.workflow.delete_deployment`
|
||||
|
||||
Important behavior to make explicit:
|
||||
|
||||
- `validate_deployment` is stored-catalog validation by default.
|
||||
- `validate_deployment(live_check=true)` contacts required upstream sources and can spawn stdio/network work.
|
||||
- `run_deployment` returns compact status and `trace_count`; do not request trace by default.
|
||||
- `read_run_trace` is the explicit bounded debug path.
|
||||
- `resume_run` works for durable stopped runs when the run is interrupted and dependencies remain compatible.
|
||||
- `delete_deployment` removes only mutable deployment bindings. It does not delete immutable workflow artifacts or durable run records.
|
||||
|
||||
## Files
|
||||
|
||||
- Modify: `docs/wf_mcp_operator_manual.md`
|
||||
- Primary mental model and short command flow.
|
||||
- Modify: `docs/wf_mcp_end_to_end_runbook.md`
|
||||
- Full happy path with concrete MCP tool payloads.
|
||||
- Modify: `docs/wf_mcp_troubleshooting.md`
|
||||
- Failure-mode lookup for validation, live checks, run, resume, and cleanup.
|
||||
- Modify: `docs/durable_run_operations.md`
|
||||
- Clarify run/resume/trace lifecycle and relationship to deployment deletion.
|
||||
- Modify: `docs/README.md`
|
||||
- Ensure the docs index points readers to the operator manual/runbook/troubleshooting in the right order.
|
||||
- Modify: `tests/wf_mcp/server/test_docs.py`
|
||||
- Add low-cost assertions that the exported docs resources include the new lifecycle terms.
|
||||
- Modify only if needed: `src/wf_mcp/documentation.py`
|
||||
- Do not add new docs resources unless existing resources do not expose the updated docs.
|
||||
|
||||
## Task 1: Update The Operator Manual Primary Path
|
||||
|
||||
**Files:**
|
||||
|
||||
- Modify: `docs/wf_mcp_operator_manual.md`
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] **Step 1: Find the current workflow tool family section**
|
||||
|
||||
Run:
|
||||
|
||||
```powershell
|
||||
rg -n "Workflow Tools|workflow tools|validate_deployment|run_deployment|delete_deployment" docs/wf_mcp_operator_manual.md
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Expected: existing sections mention workflow discovery, deployment validation, run, and resume.
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] **Step 2: Add a concise primary-path checklist**
|
||||
|
||||
Add or update a section named exactly:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
## Primary Workflow Lifecycle
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Use this content, adjusting surrounding prose only for fit:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
## Primary Workflow Lifecycle
|
||||
|
||||
Use this path when an LLM client needs to build, test, and run a saved workflow.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Discover workflow-ready capabilities with `wf.workflow.list_capabilities`.
|
||||
2. Inspect the selected capability with `wf.workflow.inspect_capability`.
|
||||
3. Create a patchable draft with `wf.workflow.create_draft_workspace_from_capability`.
|
||||
4. Patch the draft with `wf.workflow.patch_draft_workspace`.
|
||||
5. Validate the draft with `wf.workflow.validate_draft_workspace`.
|
||||
6. Save an immutable workflow or wrapper artifact with `wf.workflow.create_artifact_from_workspace` or `wf.workflow.create_wrapper_from_workspace`.
|
||||
7. Save a mutable deployment with `wf.workflow.save_deployment`.
|
||||
8. Validate the deployment with `wf.workflow.validate_deployment`.
|
||||
9. Optionally call `wf.workflow.validate_deployment` with `live_check=true` before a real run.
|
||||
10. Run with `wf.workflow.run_deployment`.
|
||||
11. If the run returns `interrupted`, resume with `wf.workflow.resume_run`.
|
||||
12. Inspect stopped runs with `wf.workflow.inspect_run`; read bounded trace slices with `wf.workflow.read_run_trace`.
|
||||
13. Delete temporary deployments with `wf.workflow.delete_deployment`.
|
||||
|
||||
Artifacts are immutable saved definitions. Deployments are mutable environment bindings. Runs are durable stopped execution records. Deleting a deployment does not delete artifacts or existing run records.
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] **Step 3: Document `live_check` next to deployment validation**
|
||||
|
||||
Find the `validate_deployment` section and add:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
By default, `validate_deployment` validates against the broker's current source inventory and saved catalog snapshots. This is cheap and side-effect-light.
|
||||
|
||||
Pass `live_check=true` only when you explicitly want to contact each required upstream source. A live check may spawn stdio MCP servers or perform network I/O. Live-check failures are returned as `source_unreachable` diagnostics.
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] **Step 4: Document `delete_deployment` in the tool table**
|
||||
|
||||
Add a table row near deployment tools:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
| Delete a temporary deployment binding | `wf.workflow.delete_deployment` |
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Also add:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
`delete_deployment` removes the saved deployment binding only. It does not delete workflow artifacts, wrapper artifacts, or run checkpoints.
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] **Step 5: Run a docs grep sanity check**
|
||||
|
||||
Run:
|
||||
|
||||
```powershell
|
||||
rg -n "Primary Workflow Lifecycle|live_check|source_unreachable|delete_deployment" docs/wf_mcp_operator_manual.md
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Expected: all four terms appear.
|
||||
|
||||
## Task 2: Update The End-To-End Runbook With Concrete Payloads
|
||||
|
||||
**Files:**
|
||||
|
||||
- Modify: `docs/wf_mcp_end_to_end_runbook.md`
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] **Step 1: Locate the happy-path flow**
|
||||
|
||||
Run:
|
||||
|
||||
```powershell
|
||||
rg -n "create_draft_workspace_from_capability|save_deployment|validate_deployment|run_deployment|resume_run" docs/wf_mcp_end_to_end_runbook.md
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Expected: existing examples for draft creation, deployment validation, and run execution.
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] **Step 2: Add a compact lifecycle summary near the top**
|
||||
|
||||
Add:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
## Minimal Lifecycle Summary
|
||||
|
||||
The shortest dependable lifecycle is:
|
||||
|
||||
```text
|
||||
list_capabilities
|
||||
inspect_capability
|
||||
create_draft_workspace_from_capability
|
||||
patch_draft_workspace
|
||||
validate_draft_workspace
|
||||
create_artifact_from_workspace
|
||||
save_deployment
|
||||
validate_deployment
|
||||
run_deployment
|
||||
inspect_run or read_run_trace only when needed
|
||||
resume_run only when status is interrupted
|
||||
delete_deployment for temporary deployments
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Do not expect a newly saved workflow to appear as a new MCP tool in an existing client session. Use `run_deployment` and `call_capability` as stable front doors.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] **Step 3: Add an explicit live validation example**
|
||||
|
||||
Near the deployment validation example, add:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
### Optional Live Source Check
|
||||
|
||||
Use this before a real run when you need to know whether the bound upstream source can currently answer.
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
tool: wf.workflow.validate_deployment
|
||||
arguments:
|
||||
deployment_id: "example.personal"
|
||||
live_check: true
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Expected successful shape:
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"deployment_id": "example.personal",
|
||||
"status": "runnable",
|
||||
"diagnostics": []
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
If a bound upstream source is down, expect `status="unrunnable"` and a diagnostic with `code="source_unreachable"`.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] **Step 4: Add a cleanup example**
|
||||
|
||||
Near the end of the runbook, add:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
### Cleanup Temporary Deployments
|
||||
|
||||
Temporary test deployments can be removed without touching immutable artifacts.
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
tool: wf.workflow.delete_deployment
|
||||
arguments:
|
||||
deployment_id: "example.personal"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Expected:
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"deployment_id": "example.personal",
|
||||
"deleted": true
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] **Step 5: Run grep sanity check**
|
||||
|
||||
Run:
|
||||
|
||||
```powershell
|
||||
rg -n "Minimal Lifecycle Summary|Optional Live Source Check|delete_deployment|source_unreachable" docs/wf_mcp_end_to_end_runbook.md
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Expected: all four terms appear.
|
||||
|
||||
## Task 3: Update Troubleshooting For Live Checks And Cleanup
|
||||
|
||||
**Files:**
|
||||
|
||||
- Modify: `docs/wf_mcp_troubleshooting.md`
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] **Step 1: Locate validation diagnostics**
|
||||
|
||||
Run:
|
||||
|
||||
```powershell
|
||||
rg -n "binding_missing|source_missing|source_disabled|capability_missing|schema_changed|source_unreachable|delete_deployment" docs/wf_mcp_troubleshooting.md
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Expected: existing sections for static diagnostics; `source_unreachable` may be missing.
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] **Step 2: Add `source_unreachable` section**
|
||||
|
||||
Add this section after `source_disabled` or near other deployment validation diagnostics:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
## `validate_deployment(live_check=true)` Says `source_unreachable`
|
||||
|
||||
Meaning: static deployment validation found a matching saved source/catalog, but the live upstream source could not answer when contacted.
|
||||
|
||||
Common causes:
|
||||
|
||||
- stdio MCP server command is missing or exits during startup
|
||||
- network MCP server is offline
|
||||
- auth/config changed outside the broker
|
||||
- source process starts too slowly and hits the live-check timeout
|
||||
|
||||
What to do:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Check the connection with `wf.admin.get_connection_statuses`.
|
||||
2. Refresh or reload the config if the source was recently enabled.
|
||||
3. Fix the source command/auth/network outside the workflow artifact.
|
||||
4. Run `wf.workflow.validate_deployment` again with `live_check=true`.
|
||||
|
||||
Do not fix this by editing the workflow artifact unless the source capability itself changed. This is an environment problem, not workflow business logic.
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] **Step 3: Add deployment cleanup troubleshooting**
|
||||
|
||||
Add:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
## Test Deployment Clutter
|
||||
|
||||
Symptom: `wf.workflow.list_deployments` shows temporary deployments from earlier tests or LLM attempts.
|
||||
|
||||
Use:
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
tool: wf.workflow.delete_deployment
|
||||
arguments:
|
||||
deployment_id: "test_alias_check"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This deletes only the mutable deployment binding. Saved artifacts and durable run records remain.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] **Step 4: Run grep sanity check**
|
||||
|
||||
Run:
|
||||
|
||||
```powershell
|
||||
rg -n "source_unreachable|Test Deployment Clutter|delete_deployment|test_alias_check" docs/wf_mcp_troubleshooting.md
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Expected: all four terms appear.
|
||||
|
||||
## Task 4: Update Durable Run Docs For Deployment Deletion Boundaries
|
||||
|
||||
**Files:**
|
||||
|
||||
- Modify: `docs/durable_run_operations.md`
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] **Step 1: Locate run/deployment lifecycle text**
|
||||
|
||||
Run:
|
||||
|
||||
```powershell
|
||||
rg -n "deployment|run_deployment|resume_run|inspect_run|read_run_trace|delete_deployment" docs/durable_run_operations.md
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Expected: current run/resume docs; `delete_deployment` may be missing.
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] **Step 2: Add deployment deletion boundary note**
|
||||
|
||||
Add under the run lifecycle or deployment section:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
## Deployment Deletion Boundary
|
||||
|
||||
`wf.workflow.delete_deployment` removes the mutable deployment binding. It does not delete:
|
||||
|
||||
- immutable workflow artifacts
|
||||
- wrapper artifacts
|
||||
- stored run records
|
||||
- run checkpoints
|
||||
|
||||
Existing run records keep the pinned deployment and artifact environment captured at run time. Deleting a deployment prevents future runs through that deployment id, but it does not erase historical stopped-run inspection data.
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] **Step 3: Reconfirm trace guidance**
|
||||
|
||||
Ensure the doc says:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
Use `inspect_run` for compact stopped-run summaries. Use `read_run_trace` only when trace entries are needed, and always request a bounded `trace_range`.
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] **Step 4: Run grep sanity check**
|
||||
|
||||
Run:
|
||||
|
||||
```powershell
|
||||
rg -n "Deployment Deletion Boundary|delete_deployment|read_run_trace|trace_range" docs/durable_run_operations.md
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Expected: all four terms appear.
|
||||
|
||||
## Task 5: Update Docs Index And Exported Docs Tests
|
||||
|
||||
**Files:**
|
||||
|
||||
- Modify: `docs/README.md`
|
||||
- Modify: `tests/wf_mcp/server/test_docs.py`
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] **Step 1: Update docs index ordering**
|
||||
|
||||
In `docs/README.md`, ensure these entries exist and read clearly:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
- [`wf_mcp_operator_manual.md`](wf_mcp_operator_manual.md): start here for the MCP-facing workflow lifecycle and tool families.
|
||||
- [`wf_mcp_end_to_end_runbook.md`](wf_mcp_end_to_end_runbook.md): concrete tool-call runbook from capability discovery through deployment, run, resume, and cleanup.
|
||||
- [`wf_mcp_troubleshooting.md`](wf_mcp_troubleshooting.md): diagnostics and repair steps for source, deployment, run, and resume failures.
|
||||
- [`durable_run_operations.md`](durable_run_operations.md): durable run records, compact inspection, bounded traces, and resume semantics.
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] **Step 2: Add docs resource assertions**
|
||||
|
||||
Open `tests/wf_mcp/server/test_docs.py` and find the test that reads `wf://docs/operator-manual` or docs resources.
|
||||
|
||||
Add field-level assertions instead of whole-dict assertions:
|
||||
|
||||
```python
|
||||
assert "Primary Workflow Lifecycle" in manual_text
|
||||
assert "live_check" in manual_text
|
||||
assert "delete_deployment" in manual_text
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
If the test currently uses a different variable name than `manual_text`, use the existing variable. Do not assert whole payload dict equality.
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] **Step 3: Run focused docs tests**
|
||||
|
||||
Run:
|
||||
|
||||
```powershell
|
||||
uv run pytest tests/wf_mcp/server/test_docs.py -q
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Expected: all tests in that file pass.
|
||||
|
||||
## Task 6: Final Verification
|
||||
|
||||
**Files:**
|
||||
|
||||
- All modified docs and tests.
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] **Step 1: Run docs grep checks**
|
||||
|
||||
Run:
|
||||
|
||||
```powershell
|
||||
rg -n "Primary Workflow Lifecycle|live_check|source_unreachable|delete_deployment|Deployment Deletion Boundary" docs
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Expected: terms appear in the intended docs, not only in historical plans.
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] **Step 2: Run focused tests**
|
||||
|
||||
Run:
|
||||
|
||||
```powershell
|
||||
uv run pytest tests/wf_mcp/server/test_docs.py tests/wf_mcp/server/test_tools.py tests/wf_mcp/workflow_surface/test_deployments.py -q
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Expected: pass.
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] **Step 3: Run lint/format checks for touched files**
|
||||
|
||||
Run:
|
||||
|
||||
```powershell
|
||||
uv run ruff check tests/wf_mcp/server/test_docs.py
|
||||
uv run ruff format --check tests/wf_mcp/server/test_docs.py
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Expected: pass.
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] **Step 4: Run type check for touched Python files**
|
||||
|
||||
Run:
|
||||
|
||||
```powershell
|
||||
uv run basedpyright --level error tests/wf_mcp/server/test_docs.py
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Expected: `0 errors`.
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] **Step 5: Optional full test suite**
|
||||
|
||||
Run when time allows:
|
||||
|
||||
```powershell
|
||||
uv run pytest -q
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Expected current baseline: full suite passes with the existing skip/xfail count.
|
||||
|
||||
## Notes For Opencode
|
||||
|
||||
- Keep this docs-first. Do not add new runtime behavior unless a doc assertion proves the current docs cannot represent the actual tool surface.
|
||||
- Prefer concise examples over giant JSON payloads.
|
||||
- Use exact current tool names with the `wf.workflow.*` namespace.
|
||||
- Do not document raw MCP proxy tools as the workflow authoring path.
|
||||
- Do not claim `delete_deployment` deletes artifacts or runs.
|
||||
- Do not tell users to expect saved workflows to appear as new MCP tools in existing client sessions.
