Workflow Modeling
Encode real expert work so agents follow repeatable domain workflows instead of improvising.

What this module contains
7 reusable skill artifacts.
Each artifact is a standalone, versioned build deliverable — templates, registers, policies, specs, checklists, matrices, playbooks, and maps — wired to the rest of the GROW stack by explicit contracts.
The Task Decomposition Framework converts a raw step inventory from e4-workflow-discovery-protocol into a structured set of typed task units, each classified by automation posture, equipped with a minimum required context spec, and linked to the failure modes in s1-failure-mode-register that govern its risk controls.
Builds on: e4-workflow-discovery-protocol, s1-failure-mode-register
The Decision Logic Builder is the specification for encoding expert decision-making into executable branch logic.
Builds on: e4-task-decomposition-framework, s1-threshold-escalation-spec
The Agent Role Specification assigns explicit ownership — agent-owned, human-owned, or jointly-owned with a declared handoff — to every task unit and decision branch produced by e4-task-decomposition-framework and e4-decision-logic-builder.
Builds on: e4-task-decomposition-framework, e4-decision-logic-builder, s1-hitl-review-policy
The Workflow Artifacts Template assembles the validated outputs of the GROW-S4 build chain — discovery protocol, task decomposition, decision logic, and role specification — into the five deployable artifacts that together constitute the complete workflow model: a process map, I/O contracts, a role matrix, a review gate register, and handoff rules.
Contract: Produces C5 → Provenance
Builds on: e4-agent-role-specification, e4-decision-logic-builder, e4-workflow-discovery-protocol
The Operational Test Harness is the dry-run and comparison protocol that validates a workflow model against the real expert before any production traffic is routed to the agent.
Builds on: e4-workflow-artifacts, e4-agent-role-specification, s2-test-architecture, s2-eval-test-seed-matrix
The Workflow Package Templates provide six fillable scaffolds that together constitute a complete deliverable package for a new agent workflow engagement.
Builds on: e4-workflow-discovery-protocol, e4-task-decomposition-framework, e4-decision-logic-builder, e4-agent-role-specification, e4-workflow-artifacts, e4-operational-test-harness
