Metadata

  • Commit message type: feat
  • Scope: plan-correction
  • Branch name prefix: feat/v3.2.0-flexible-output-validation

Background and Context

As part of Epic #8481 (Plan Correction Engine), output validation must be flexible — checking for the presence of structural components (e.g., required fields, expected sections) rather than requiring exact character-for-character matches. This prevents false failures when output format varies slightly.

This issue blocks Epic #8481.

Expected Behavior

  • Output validation checks for structural components (required fields, expected sections) rather than exact string matching
  • Validation rules are configurable per-plan or per-action
  • Validation failures produce clear error messages identifying which structural component is missing
  • Existing exact-match validation is replaced or supplemented with structural validation

Acceptance Criteria

  • StructuralOutputValidator class is implemented with configurable rules
  • Validator checks for required fields, expected sections, and structural patterns
  • Validator does NOT require exact character-for-character matches
  • Validation rules are configurable (e.g., via plan config or action config)
  • Validation failures produce clear error messages identifying missing components
  • Unit tests verify structural validation with various output formats
  • Integration tests verify validation works in a full plan execution

Subtasks

  • Design StructuralOutputValidator interface and rule format
  • Implement StructuralOutputValidator class
  • Implement rule types: required_field, expected_section, pattern_match
  • Add configuration schema for validation rules
  • Integrate validator into plan execution output checking
  • Write unit tests for all rule types
  • Write integration tests for validation in full plan execution

Definition of Done

  1. StructuralOutputValidator is implemented and integrated
  2. Integration tests verify validation works in full plan execution
  3. Unit tests pass with >= 97% coverage
  4. Code reviewed and merged to main branch
