Kanitsal Cerceve (Evidential Frame Activation) Kaynak dogrulama modu etkin. ## Overview Create sophisticated workflow cascades that chain multiple workflows together with sequential pipelines, parallel execution, conditional branching, and error handling. ## Agents & Responsibilities ### task-orchestrator **Role:** Orchestrate workflow execution **Responsibilities:** - Coordinate workflow execution - Handle workflow transitions - Manage workflow state - Monitor progress ### hierarchical-coordinator **Role:** Manage workflow hierarchy **Responsibilities:** - Organize workflow levels - Handle parent-child workflows - Manage dependencies - Ensure proper ordering ### memory-coordinator **Role:** Manage workflow state and data flow **Responsibilities:** - Store workflow state - Pass data between workflows - Maintain execution history - Ensure data consistency ## Phase 1: Design Cascade ### Objective Design cascade structure with workflows, dependencies, and branching logic. ### Scripts ```bash # Create cascade definition cat > cascade-definition.yaml < 0.95" steps: [build, deploy, verify] depends_on: [testing] EOF # Validate cascade npx claude-flow@alpha cascade validate --definition cascade-definition.yaml # Visualize cascade npx claude-flow@alpha cascade visualize \ --definition cascade-definition.yaml \ --output cascade-diagram.png # Store cascade definition npx claude-flow@alpha memory store \ --key "cascade/definition" \ --file cascade-definition.yaml ``` ### Cascade Patterns **Sequential Cascade:** ``` Workflow A → Workflow B → Workflow C ``` **Parallel Cascade:** ``` ┌─ Workflow B ─┐ Workflow A ├─ Workflow C ─┤ Workflow E └─ Workflow D ─┘ ``` **Conditional Cascade:** ``` Workflow A → Decision → [if true] Workflow B → [if false] Workflow C ``` **Hybrid Cascade:** ``` Design → ┬─ Backend ─┐ └─ Frontend─┴─ [if tests pass] → Deploy ``` ## Phase 2: Chain Workflows ### Objective Connect workflows with proper data flow and dependency management. ### Scripts ```bash # Initialize cascade npx claude-flow@alpha cascade init \ --definition cascade-definition.yaml # Connect workflow stages npx claude-flow@alpha cascade connect \ --from design \ --to backend \ --data-flow "architecture-docs" npx claude-flow@alpha cascade connect \ --from design \ --to frontend \ --data-flow "ui-specs" npx claude-flow@alpha cascade connect \ --from backend \ --to testing \ --data-flow "api-endpoints" # Setup conditional branching npx claude-flow@alpha cascade branch \ --workflow testing \ --condition "success_rate > 0.95" \ --true-path deployment \ --false-path debugging # Verify connections npx claude-flow@alpha cascade status --show-connections ``` ### Data Flow Configuration ```bash # Configure data passing npx claude-flow@alpha cascade data-flow \ --from "design.architecture" \ --to "backend.api-spec" \ --transform "extract-api-endpoints" # Setup shared state npx claude-flow@alpha memory store \ --key "cascade/shared-state" \ --value '{ "project": "full-stack-app", "version": "1.0.0", "environment": "production" }' ``` ## Phase 3: Execute Cascade ### Objective Execute cascading workflows with proper sequencing and error handling. ### Scripts ```bash # Execute cascade npx claude-flow@alpha cascade execute \ --definition cascade-definition. /*----------------------------------------------------------------------------*/ /* S4 SUCCESS CRITERIA */ /*----------------------------------------------------------------------------*/ [define|neutral] SUCCESS_CRITERIA := { primary: "Skill execution completes successfully", quality: "Output meets quality thresholds", verification: "Results validated against requirements" } [ground:given] [conf:1.0] [state:confirmed] /*----------------------------------------------------------------------------*/ /* S5 MCP INTEGRATION */ /*----------------------------------------------------------------------------*/ [define|neutral] MCP_INTEGRATION := { memory_mcp: "Store execution results and patterns", tools: ["mcp__memory-mcp__memory_store", "mcp__memory-mcp__vector_search"] } [ground:witnessed:mcp-config] [conf:0.95] [state:confirmed] /*----------------------------------------------------------------------------*/ /* S6 MEMORY NAMESPACE */ /*----------------------------------------------------------------------------*/ [define|neutral] MEMORY_NAMESPACE := { pattern: "skills/coordination/when-chaining-workflows-use-cascade-orchestrator/{project}/{timestamp}", store: ["executions", "decisions", "patterns"], retrieve: ["similar_tasks", "proven_patterns"] } [ground:system-policy] [conf:1.0] [state:confirmed] [define|neutral] MEMORY_TAGGING := { WHO: "when-chaining-workflows-use-cascade-orchestrator-{session_id}", WHEN: "ISO8601_timestamp", PROJECT: "{project_name}", WHY: "skill-execution" } [ground:system-policy] [conf:1.0] [state:confirmed] /*----------------------------------------------------------------------------*/ /* S7 SKILL COMPLETION VERIFICATION */ /*----------------------------------------------------------------------------*/ [direct|emphatic] COMPLETION_CHECKLIST := { agent_spawning: "Spawn agents via Task()", registry_validation: "Use registry agents only", todowrite_called: "Track progress with TodoWrite", work_delegation: "Delegate to specialized agents" } [ground:system-policy] [conf:1.0] [state:confirmed] /*----------------------------------------------------------------------------*/ /* S8 ABSOLUTE RULES */ /*----------------------------------------------------------------------------*/ [direct|emphatic] RULE_NO_UNICODE := forall(output): NOT(unicode_outside_ascii) [ground:windows-compatibility] [conf:1.0] [state:confirmed] [direct|emphatic] RULE_EVIDENCE := forall(claim): has(ground) AND has(confidence) [ground:verix-spec] [conf:1.0] [state:confirmed] [direct|emphatic] RULE_REGISTRY := forall(agent): agent IN AGENT_REGISTRY [ground:system-policy] [conf:1.0] [state:confirmed] /*----------------------------------------------------------------------------*/ /* PROMISE */ /*----------------------------------------------------------------------------*/ [commit|confident] WHEN_CHAINING_WORKFLOWS_USE_CASCADE_ORCHESTRATOR_VERILINGUA_VERIX_COMPLIANT [ground:self-validation] [conf:0.99] [state:confirmed]
