Metadata

  • Commit message: feat(validation): implement validation pipeline phase transition gating with result persistence
  • Branch name: feat/validation-pipeline-phase-gating

Background and Context

The v3.2.0 milestone requires a validation pipeline that gates plan progression at each phase transition. Currently, plans can transition between phases (e.g., Strategize → Execute → Apply) without any validation checks, meaning invalid or incomplete plans can proceed to execution and application. This creates a risk of applying broken plans to the codebase.

This issue implements phase transition gating: before each phase transition, the validation pipeline runs a set of checks appropriate to that transition. If validation fails, the transition is blocked and a clear error message is returned. Validation results are also persisted to the decision tree for auditability.

Parent Epic: #8137

Acceptance Criteria

  • Phase transitions (Strategize→Execute, Execute→Apply) are gated by validation checks
  • Validation failures block the transition and return a clear, actionable error message
  • Validation results (pass/fail + details) are persisted to the decision tree
  • Validation pipeline is extensible — new checks can be added without modifying core transition logic
  • Existing phase transition tests continue to pass
  • Unit tests for the gating logic achieve >= 97% coverage

Subtasks

  • Define ValidationPipeline interface with validate(phase_transition, plan) method
  • Implement Strategize→Execute transition validation checks
  • Implement Execute→Apply transition validation checks (Definition-of-Done gating)
  • Integrate ValidationPipeline into PlanLifecycleService phase transition methods
  • Implement validation result persistence to the decision tree
  • Write unit tests for each validation check and the pipeline orchestrator
  • Write integration test: trigger a validation failure and verify transition is blocked

Definition of Done

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