INNOVATION: CONFIGURATION-DRIVEN ARCHITECTURE
|
|
========================================
|
|
|
|
CORE CONCEPT:
|
|
Complete externalization of all orchestration parameters to JSON configuration files,
|
|
eliminating hardcoded values and enabling flexible, reproducible, production-ready execution.
|
|
|
|
KEY INNOVATIONS:
|
|
1. Hierarchical Configuration Merging (defaults → profile → custom → runtime)
|
|
2. JSON Schema Validation (schema + semantic + cross-field)
|
|
3. Multiple Profiles (development, production, research)
|
|
4. Interactive Configuration Tools (create, edit, compare, optimize, merge)
|
|
|
|
========================================
|
|
CHAIN PROMPTING IMPLEMENTATION
|
|
========================================
|
|
|
|
Based on: https://docs.claude.com/en/docs/build-with-claude/prompt-engineering/chain-prompts
|
|
|
|
TECHNIQUES LEARNED:
|
|
1. Workflow Decomposition - Break complex tasks into sequential subtasks
|
|
2. State Passing via XML - Structured state handoffs between stages
|
|
3. Single-Task Focus - Each stage gets full attention on one goal
|
|
4. Self-Correction Loops - Validation failures trigger retry/refinement
|
|
|
|
WORKFLOW STAGES (7 standard, expandable):
|
|
1. Load Configuration - Load and parse all config sources
|
|
2. Validate Configuration - Schema + semantic validation
|
|
3. Merge Configuration - Hierarchical deep merge
|
|
4. Analyze Specification - Extract requirements and standards
|
|
5. Plan Execution - Create detailed execution plan
|
|
6. Execute Generation - Deploy parallel agents with web learning
|
|
7. Validate Output - Quality checks and self-correction
|
|

LESSONS FROM CHAIN PROMPTING
|
|
========================================
|
|
|
|
From: https://docs.claude.com/en/docs/build-with-claude/prompt-engineering/chain-prompts
|
|
|
|
1. WORKFLOW DECOMPOSITION
|
|
Lesson: Break complex tasks into distinct, sequential subtasks
|
|
Applied: 7-stage workflow (load, validate, merge, analyze, plan, execute, validate)
|
|
|
|
2. STATE PASSING
|
|
Lesson: Use XML tags to structure outputs and pass state between prompts
|
|
Applied: Each stage outputs XML state for next stage (e.g., <config_validated>, <execution_plan>)
|
|
|
|
3. SINGLE-TASK FOCUS
|
|
Lesson: Each link in chain gets Claude's full attention on one goal
|
|
Applied: Each stage has one clear goal (e.g., "Validate configuration against schema")
|
|
|
|
4. SELF-CORRECTION
|
|
Lesson: Create loops where Claude reviews its own work
|
|
Applied: Validation failures trigger automatic retry with corrections
|
|
|
|
5. TRACEABILITY
|
|
Lesson: Clear handoffs enable tracking and refining individual steps
|
|
Applied: XML state documents provide complete audit trail of workflow
