Execution intent contract matrix

intent allowed contracts allowed modes
EXACT_VALIDATION deterministic strict
REPRODUCIBLE_RESEARCH deterministic, non_deterministic strict (DET), bounded/ exploratory (ND)
EXPLORATORY_SEARCH non_deterministic bounded, exploratory
PRODUCTION_RETRIEVAL deterministic strict

Rules:

  • Intent is always explicit and coerced to ExecutionIntent at boundary ingress.
  • Non-deterministic intents require an execution budget and randomness profile.
  • Deterministic intents must use strict mode; ND intents must not use strict mode.
