Context
MIDAS currently evaluates decisions as individual governed events, with each evaluation producing its own envelope, audit chain, and outcome.
However, many real-world decisioning scenarios involve multiple related evaluations that belong to the same higher-level execution instance or business journey.
Problem
There is currently no first-class way to link related decision evaluations together as part of the same run.
This makes it harder to:
- understand how multiple decisions relate to the same end-to-end flow
- trace execution across a journey rather than only at single-decision level
- support future journey analytics and escalation tracking
- distinguish isolated evaluations from evaluations that are part of a broader execution path
Proposed solution
Introduce a first-class run-level linkage model for MIDAS.
A Run should represent a higher-level execution instance that can link multiple related decision evaluations over time.
Each evaluation envelope should be able to reference a run_id, allowing envelopes produced during the same journey or execution path to be grouped together.
Scope
- Define a canonical
Run model
- Introduce a stable
run_id
- Link evaluation envelopes to a run
- Ensure multiple envelopes can share the same
run_id
- Expose run linkage through the API and/or envelope model
- Preserve backward compatibility for evaluations that do not participate in a run
Acceptance criteria
- A first-class Run model exists in the domain
- Evaluation envelopes can reference a
run_id
- Multiple related evaluations can be linked to the same
run_id
- Run linkage is deterministic and serialisable
- Existing single-evaluation flows continue to function without requiring run context
- Feature is documented
