Task: Add the process run record
Table of Contents
This page documents a task in the Trace a process run and the trade groups it creates — the remaining work story. It captures the goal, current status, acceptance, and any notes or results.
1. Goal
One run of a process is a record with its own identity, the process it is a run of, the time it ran and the states it moved through.
2. Status
| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| State | BACKLOG |
| Parent story | Trace a process run and the trade groups it creates — the remaining work |
| Now | Not yet started. |
| Waiting on | The pilot process, so the run is settled against a client. |
| Next | Settle the shape with the pilot, then seed the enumeration and add the table. |
| Last touched | 2026-10-08 |
3. Acceptance
- The process enumeration is seeded, so a run names which process ran.
- A run has an identity and a state machine over its evolution.
- The state machine refuses a transition the process does not allow; a pgTAP test walks a run through its states.
- The run records the process it is a run of with an enforced foreign key, and no run exists without one.
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.
