PromptLong-running Autonomy & State Adaptation ยท Task 6

Round1

Round 1 of 2: start the export preparation.

Read $WORKSPACE/in/export_request.json and $WORKSPACE/in/customer_segments.csv. Create:

  • $WORKSPACE/out/state.json
  • $WORKSPACE/out/tmp/export_manifest_draft.json
  • $WORKSPACE/out/audit.log

The state should indicate status "running", request_id "cancel-77", and list planned artifacts. The tmp draft should contain a segment count and planned output names, but do not create final export files.

Do not modify input files.

Round2

Round 2 of 2: cancel and clean up.

Read $WORKSPACE/out/state.json, $WORKSPACE/out/tmp/export_manifest_draft.json, and $WORKSPACE/in/cancel_notice.json. The cancellation is authoritative.

Update/create:

  • $WORKSPACE/out/state.json
  • $WORKSPACE/out/cancellation_report.md
  • $WORKSPACE/out/audit.log

Required behavior:

  • state.status must be "cancelled"
  • state.cancel_reason must match the notice
  • remove temporary files and directories under $WORKSPACE/out/tmp
  • preserve an audit trail in $WORKSPACE/out/audit.log and cancellation_report.md
  • do not delete or modify input files
  • do not create final export files
