Gate Schema Consistency Audit

Overview

Identify inconsistent gate field schemas across the library that increase interpretation burden and cause engine integration drift.

Steps

Step 1: Inventory gate field variants

For each gate file, inventory which fields are used for these concepts:

• ordering: sequence_order vs sequence
• evaluation target: evaluation_prompt vs evaluation_procedure
• definition: description vs purpose vs long_description
• routing: on_pass/on_fail/on_partial/on_skip/on_error (and custom keys)
• triggers: trigger_conditions vs trigger
• meta flags: is_meta/affects_system/skippable/phase/category/tags

Output a table of “concept -> observed field variants -> example files”.

Step 2: Choose a standard gate schema (non-regression)

For each concept (ordering, evaluation, routing, triggers):

• State the intent of the concept.
• Choose one standard field name.
• State what must be preserved from the non-standard variants.
• Propose a migration mapping (old field -> new field) that preserves meaning.

Do not delete information; move it or rename it.

Step 3: Apply clarity audits to the chosen standard

Apply:

• library/procedures/core/goal_analysis/analysis_protocol_clarity_and_validity.yaml
• library/procedures/core/goal_analysis/detectors_and_generators.yaml

Goal: the standard schema itself should not smuggle in bundled checks, undefined terms, or hidden conditionals.

When to Use

• When adding new gate files or new gate fields
• When the engine behaves differently across gate sets (core vs domain vs meta)
• When you want a single “standard gate form” across the library
