Intent

Run the composed workflow world-model-workflow using atomic capability skills to construct a comprehensive, grounded representation of a system or domain.

A world model captures:

  • State: Current entity states and attributes
  • Dynamics: How the system evolves over time
  • Uncertainty: Confidence bounds and unknowns
  • Provenance: Source and lineage of all facts

Success criteria:

  • Complete entity inventory with identity resolution
  • State representation follows canonical schema
  • Causal relationships and dynamics modeled
  • Uncertainty quantified for all assertions
  • Full provenance chain for every fact
  • Simulation capability established

Compatible schemas:

  • reference/world_state_schema.yaml
  • reference/event_schema.yaml

Evidence pattern: Multi-source data integration, entity resolution across databases, causal analysis from transaction patterns, uncertainty from data freshness and coverage.

Verification

  • Entity Coverage: All entities in scope identified with canonical IDs
  • Relationship Completeness: Key relationships mapped with evidence
  • State Validity: World state conforms to schema
  • Dynamics Defined: Transition rules and causal links documented
  • Uncertainty Quantified: Confidence scores for all major assertions
  • Provenance Complete: Source documented for >90% of facts
  • Simulation Validated: At least 1 scenario successfully executed

Verification tools: Read (for state files), Bash (for simulation), Web (for API validation)

Safety Constraints

  • mutation
    : false
  • requires_checkpoint
    : false
  • requires_approval
    : false
  • risk
    : medium

Capability-specific rules:

  • Do not modify source data during modeling
  • Flag entities with confidence < threshold
  • Document all assumptions explicitly
  • Preserve raw data alongside derived state
  • Validate schema conformance before completion
  • Rate-limit API calls to respect source limits

Composition Patterns

Commonly follows:

  • retrieve
    - After gathering raw data
  • receive
    - After ingesting real-time signals
  • inspect
    - After initial data quality assessment

Commonly precedes:

  • digital-twin-sync-workflow
    - World model is prerequisite for sync
  • simulate
    - To run what-if scenarios
  • forecast-risk
    - To predict future states
  • summarize
    - To generate executive reports

Anti-patterns:

  • Never skip identity resolution before state construction
  • Never omit uncertainty modeling for production use
  • Never finalize without provenance documentation
  • Never deploy model without simulation validation
