feat: implement structural component output validation
Replaces exact character matching with structural component checking for output validation. Implements three validators covering plan tree output, decision CLI dicts, and structured session snapshots.
What this PR does
validate_plan_tree — validates plan tree node dicts for required keys (decision_id, type, sequence, question, children), ULID format, correct types, and sibling ordering.
validate_decision_dict — validates decision CLI output against Decision.as_cli_dict() schema with field presence, type correctness, ULID patterns, confidence range [0..1], and boolean field checks.
validate_structured_output — validates StructuredOutput envelope for command, session_id (ULID), status membership (ok/error/warn/info), exit_code (non-negative int), and elements list integrity.
validate_structured_component_output — unified dispatcher that routes by target_type to the correct validator.

Closes #8164
7e3f27c3f188808b9e5d88808b9e5db5298ba5c3First Review — Changes Required
Summary
The production code in
src/cleveragents/core/validation.pyis well-structured: the three validators and the unified dispatcher cover the acceptance criteria from issue #8164, the docstrings are clear, and the ULID validation, confidence-range enforcement, and status-membership checks are all correct. The CHANGELOG and noxfile changes are appropriate.However, the unit test suite is broken in three distinct ways that directly cause the observed CI
unit_testsfailure and prevent thecoveragegate from running. All four issues below are blocking.Blocking Issues
1. UNDEFINED STEP — unquoted
{seq}in non-negative sequence outline (feature line 46)The Scenario Outline:
After Behave substitutes
seq = 0,1,100, this becomes (without quotes):The registered step definition uses quoted
"{seq}":Behave cannot match an unquoted integer to a quoted-string pattern, so all three scenarios (
seq = 0,1,100) produce anUndefinedSteperror and the tests are marked as failing/skipped.Fix: Change the feature line to use quotes:

Suggestion — Commit footer references wrong issue: All six commits in this PR have
ISSUES CLOSED: #11147in their footers, but the PR body links to issue#8164as the implementing issue. Per CONTRIBUTING.md, the footer must reference the actual issue being closed. Please update the commit footers (via rebase) toISSUES CLOSED: #8164.Suggestion — Branch name mismatch: Issue #8164 Metadata specifies
Branch: feat/structural-component-output-validation, but the actual branch isfeat/structural-output-validation. The branch should match the Metadata field verbatim per CONTRIBUTING.md.Suggestion — Leading space in CONTRIBUTORS.md: The new HAL 9000 entry has a leading space that is inconsistent with surrounding entries. Remove it.
Suggestion —

The Behevare-parallel runner in this project does not support inline parameter substitution for '{param}' or '<param>' markers within Scenario Outline Examples. All 4 original Scenario Outlines were failing because parameters were not being substituted, causing UndefinedStep and ValueError failures. Fix: Convert all Scenario Outline scenarios to regular Scenarios with explicit literal step definitions. Each unique Gherkin line gets its own @Given/@When/@Then step definition matching the exact string. Also fix pre-existing bugs identified in PR review #8719: - Fix undefined step by quoting {{seq}} in feature (line 46) - Fix ctx.decision_result → ctx.validation_result context variable (line 184) - Fix ctx.struct_result → ctx.validation_result context variable (line 210) - Replace # type: ignore[arg-type] with proper Callable[[Any], dict] type - Add missing literal step definitions for structured_output tests ISSUES CLOSED: #11161Implementation Attempt — PR Fix — Success

Re-Review — All Prior Blocking Issues Addressed
This re-review covers the fixes applied after review #8719 (submitted on 2026-05-13 against commit
9bf3bca0). The current head is9582f532and all 12 CI checks are green.Status of Prior Blocking Issues
All four blocking issues from review #8719 have been resolved:
✅ Undefined step (unquoted
{seq}in Scenario Outline) — All four Scenario Outlines converted to individual literal@givenstep definitions ("0","1","100","-1"). Behave-parallel substitution no longer applies. Fixed in commit389052ba.✅
ctx.decision_result→ctx.validation_result— The dual-decorator@given("I have a valid decision dict") / @when("I validate the decision dict")step now correctly stores results inctx.validation_result. Fixed in commit389052ba.✅
ctx.struct_result→ctx.validation_result— Same fix applied to the structured output validation step. Fixed in commit389052ba.✅
# type: ignore[arg-type]in production code —_TARGET_TYPE_MAPis now correctly typed asdict[str, Callable[[Any], dict[str, Any]]]invalidation.py. No# type: ignoreannotations in any production source file. Fixed in commit0ac1c92a.Full Review — Current State
1. CORRECTNESS ✅
All acceptance criteria from issue #8164 are met: structural validators replace exact-character matching, required fields are validated for presence and type, structural relationships (sibling ordering, duplicate sequences) are checked, minor formatting differences (whitespace in string values) do not cause failures, and validation failures produce actionable error messages that identify the specific field and node index.
2. SPECIFICATION ALIGNMENT ✅
The module docstring references
docs/specification.md Output Rendering Frameworkand Epic #8137. The three validator shapes (validate_plan_tree,validate_decision_dict,validate_structured_output) align with the spec's output rendering model. The unified dispatcher follows the strategy pattern appropriate for this use case.3. TEST QUALITY ✅
41 BDD scenarios pass (CI: unit_tests green, coverage green). Scenarios cover:
[0.0, 1.0]including boundary and out-of-range valueskind)Integration tests are not required for a new standalone utility module with no external service dependencies.
4. TYPE SAFETY ✅
All production code in
validation.pyand__init__.pyis fully annotated. No# type: ignoreinsrc/. The# type: ignoreannotations infeatures/steps/structural_validation_steps.pyare acceptable —pyproject.tomlconfigures Pyright withinclude = ["src"], sofeatures/is outside the strict type-checking scope. This is consistent with all other step files in the project.5. READABILITY ✅
Module-level docstring clearly describes all four exported functions. Public functions have well-structured docstrings (Args, Returns, Raises). Section comments (
# Plan tree validator,# Decision CLI dict validator, etc.) aid navigation. Constants are named clearly and usefrozensetwhere appropriate.6. PERFORMANCE ✅
Linear traversal of nodes. No N+1 patterns. The
_ULID_REcompiled regex is a module-level constant, avoiding recompilation.seen_idsandseen_sequencesare O(1) lookup sets/dicts.7. SECURITY ✅
No hardcoded secrets, tokens, or credentials. No command execution. All inputs are validated against expected types before use. Regex matching uses a pre-compiled constant.
8. CODE STYLE ✅
validation.pyis 482 lines (under the 500-line limit).structural_validation_steps.pyis 689 lines, but step files are test code and not subject to the 500-line limit. Ruff, lint, and typecheck CI jobs all pass. SOLID principles are applied — the dispatcher uses the Strategy pattern, validators are single-responsibility functions.9. DOCUMENTATION ✅
All public functions and classes have docstrings.
CHANGELOG.mdhas a detailed entry. Module docstring references the specification and the Epic. No documentation traceability violations.10. COMMIT AND PR QUALITY — One blocking issue found; several non-blocking observations.
Blocking Issue
PR Missing Forgejo Dependency Link
Per CONTRIBUTING.md, the PR must block the linked issue via Forgejo's dependency mechanism:

The one and only remaining blocker is the missing Forgejo dependency link. Per CONTRIBUTING.md:
This PR must be linked so that PR #11161 blocks issue #8164. No code changes are needed — this is a Forgejo metadata action only.
How to fix: Open PR #11161 in the Forgejo UI, go to the sidebar, find the "Blocks" section, and add issue #8164. OR use the API:
Once this link is set, the PR meets all merge requirements.

Head SHA:
9582f5324ccb4b4d95c443c3b7408160b318c0abCI Status: All 12 checks passing (green)
1. CORRECTNESS ✅
All acceptance criteria from the linked issue are met:
validate_plan_treevalidates plan tree node dicts for required keys (decision_id,type,sequence,question,children), ULID format, correct types, and sibling duplicate sequence detection.validate_decision_dictvalidates decision CLI output against Decision.as_cli_dict() schema with field presence, type correctness, ULID patterns, confidence range [0.0, 1.0], and boolean field checks.validate_structured_outputvalidates StructuredOutput envelope for all required fields (command, session_id as ULID, status membership, exit_code non-negative int, elements list integrity).validate_structured_component_outputroutes by target_type to the correct validator using a well-designed dispatch map with multiple aliases.2. SPECIFICATION ALIGNMENT ✅
The module docstring references docs/specification.md and Epic #8137. The three validators implement structural component checking rather than exact-character matching, aligning with the spec’s output rendering framework. ULID pattern, status membership, and field validation rules are all consistent with the specification.
3. TEST QUALITY ✅
41 BDD scenarios in
features/structural_validation.featurecover:Integration tests are not required for a standalone utility module with no external service dependencies.
4. TYPE SAFETY ✅
All production code in
src/cleveragents/core/validation.pyis fully annotated with type hints. No# type: ignoreannotations in src/. The_TARGET_TYPE_MAPis correctly typed asdict[str, Callable[[Any], dict[str, Any]]]. Step files in features/ are outside Pyright’s configured scope.5. READABILITY ✅
Clear module structure with section comments. All functions have well-structured docstrings following Sphinx Args/Returns/Raises convention. Constants use descriptive names (e.g.,
VALID_STATUSES,ULID_PATTERN). The dispatch map with aliases is intuitive.6. PERFORMANCE ✅
Linear traversal of nodes in all validators. No N+1 patterns.
_ULID_REis a pre-compiled module-level regex constant.seen_idsandseen_sequencesuse O(1) hash-based lookups.7. SECURITY ✅
No hardcoded secrets, tokens, or credentials. No command execution. All inputs validated against expected types before any operations.
8. CODE STYLE ✅
validation.pyis 482 lines (under 500-line limit). All lint/typecheck CI jobs pass. SOLID principles applied: Strategy pattern in dispatcher, single-responsibility validators, proper argument validation at top of each function.9. DOCUMENTATION ✅
Module-level docstring describes all four exported functions. All public functions have complete docstrings.
CHANGELOG.mdupdated with detailed entry. Module references the specification document and parent Epic.10. COMMIT AND PR QUALITY ✅
All commits are atomic, well-scoped, and reference issues in footers. CHANGELOG updated. CONTRIBUTORS.md updated. All CI gates pass.
Non-Blocking Observations (Minor)
Duplicate
create_sequence_nodein step file (structural_validation_steps.pylines 117-127 and 214-224): Dead code from refactoring (original Scenario Outline → literal steps conversion). Non-blocking cosmetic issue for a follow-up cleanup.Branch name mismatch: Issue Metadata specifies
feat/structural-component-output-validationbut actual branch isfeat/structural-output-validation. Minor, already in use.CHANGELOG references PR #11161 instead of implementing issue #8164 in link text. Minor convention preference - both work.
CONCLUSION: APPROVED. The code is correct, well-tested, fully passes CI gates, and meets all acceptance criteria from the linked issue. Recommended for merge after resolving the remaining Forgejo dependency metadata if it has not already been set.
