Hand Off to Analysis

The handoff boundary is where a validated input package stops being a draft submission and becomes a concrete execution request.

What should carry forward​

At handoff time, the following should already be stable:

  • Project identifier
  • Input package structure
  • Resolved manifest and file references
  • Validation status and any non-blocking warnings
  • Packaging metadata needed by the deployment path

What should not change silently​

Do not allow the following to drift silently between validation and execution:

  • config.projectId
  • Referenced file paths
  • Selected portfolio file
  • Optional file presence used to determine workflow readiness

If these change, the package should be revalidated rather than passed straight through.

Operator-facing handoff path​

In the CLI-oriented deployment flow, the handoff normally looks like this:

  1. Stage the validated 01_sources/ package
  2. Install the infrastructure layer with the job disabled
  3. Confirm the package is present at the mounted input path
  4. Enable the job and start the run

That sequence keeps validation and execution separate while still preserving a smooth operator workflow.

Next step after handoff​

Once the bundle is accepted for execution, the user should switch to the core analysis docs:
