  • Commit message: feat(invariants): implement invariant enforcement hook in Strategize phase
  • Branch name: feat/invariant-enforcement-strategize-hook

Background and Context

The v3.2.0 milestone (M3: Decisions + Validations + Invariants) requires that invariants are enforced during the Strategize phase. Currently, the Strategize phase has no mechanism to load and check active invariants before generating a plan. Without this enforcement hook, user-defined constraints are silently ignored, allowing plans to be generated that violate known business or technical requirements.

This issue implements the invariant enforcement integration point in the Strategize phase: loading all active invariants from the database, evaluating each against the proposed plan, and rejecting or flagging any plan that would violate an invariant with a clear, actionable error message.

Parent Epic: #8137

Acceptance Criteria

  • Strategize phase loads all active invariants from the database at the start of planning
  • Each active invariant is evaluated against the proposed plan before execution proceeds
  • A plan that violates an active invariant is rejected with a clear error message identifying the violated invariant by ID and description
  • Invariant enforcement does not break plans that satisfy all invariants
  • Enforcement is skipped gracefully when no invariants are defined (empty invariant set)
  • Unit tests cover enforcement logic with >= 97% coverage

Subtasks

  • Add invariant loading call to StrategizeService (or equivalent) at phase entry
  • Implement InvariantEnforcementService.check_plan(plan, invariants) method
  • Implement clear error messaging when an invariant is violated (include invariant ID + description)
  • Handle edge case: empty invariant set (no-op, plan proceeds normally)
  • Write unit tests for enforcement logic (mock invariant repository)
  • Write integration test: create invariant, run strategize, verify violation is caught

Definition of Done

  • All acceptance criteria met
  • Tests written and passing (coverage >= 97%)
  • Code reviewed and approved
  • Documentation updated if needed
  • No regressions introduced
