Task: Generate the handlers of an operation model

Table of Contents

This page documents a task in the Complete the ORE report configuration story. It captures the goal, current status, acceptance, and any notes or results.

1. Goal

An operation model generates its NATS handler and registrar as an entity model does, so no operation handler is written by hand.

3. Acceptance

  • An operation in an operation model names the service method it calls, the permission it checks and whether it requires a party, and codegen generates the handler that authorises, decodes, calls and replies.
  • The registrar subscribing every operation is generated.
  • The configuration document handlers in refdata, analytics and reporting, and the calendar materialisation handler, are generated and their hand-written copies deleted.

4. Plan

(Implementation strategy. Written when work starts; key decisions are distilled into the parent story's * Decisions at close, but the plan itself stays — it is the historical record of what we did.)

5. Measurements

Every number this task claims about a tree, with the command that produced it and the commit it was measured at. A number without both is not a measurement, because a clean-up record describes a tree and trunk moves under a branch: a consumer count, a gate's component count and a suite's size all change with no code changing, and the reader of a bare number cannot tell which tree it came from. Where the raw output matters, put it in an evidence/ file beside the task and name that file in the Command column.

6. Notes

Raised on 2026-10-05 by the operator during the review of PR #2639: the configuration document operations generate their protocol from operation models, but their handlers and registrars are hand-written, as every operation handler is today, because the handler and registrar templates serve entity models only. The PR went in as it was; this task removes the hand-written handlers.

7. Test Scenarios

Manual QA scenarios (scaffolded via compass add test_scenario) that verify this task. Link new ones here as they're created; the scenario doc itself links back via its "Verifies task" field.
