draft-play-expectation

To generate deterministic test expectations from a play intent YAML file, use this Skill to transform reference/intent.yaml into reference/expectation.yaml. It drafts success scenarios and recovery entries with observable binary measures for agentic testability.

An expectation artifact in the Play framework defines what success looks like and how the system recovers from declared failure conditions. You need one to establish deterministic testability and structured recovery design for create-play flows.

To create recovery scenarios for failure conditions in a Play framework intent, this Skill generates exactly one recovery entry per declared failure. Each entry includes a trigger, directional guidance, and handoff settings, stamped as pending for human approval.

Yes, this expectation generation process supports both legacy and migrated intent shapes. It detects the specific intent shape during generation and applies the appropriate rules to ensure the resulting YAML artifact is structurally valid.

The main limitation of automatically drafting Play framework expectation artifacts is that generated recovery entries require human approval. The system writes a vetted status of pending at the create-play checkpoint, meaning drafts are not immediately executable without review.
