Task: Round trip the simulation configuration

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

Simulation is the largest analytics document and the one whose correlations and calibration baskets resist normalisation, so it is the hardest test of the model.

3. Acceptance

  • Every simulation.xml in the corpus imports, exports and matches.
  • A correlation is one row per pair of participants, and a basket is one row per member, with no wider struct.
  • A calibration basket and a calibration instrument are rows, not nested elements, and the round trip restores the nesting.

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.
