# MKTT-WP-0011: Markdown Dataflow Pipeline Workflows
## Purpose
Create a declarative workflow layer for Markdown-to-Markdown dataflow:
collecting data from one or more Markdown sources, applying deterministic and
optional assisted processing, and injecting the results into one or more
Markdown outputs.
## Background
The current toolkit has strong primitives: parse, query, extract, transform,
compose, include, template render, contract stub generation, generation plans,
and a provider-neutral assisted-generation hook.
What is missing is orchestration. Users can script the pieces manually, but
there is not yet a first-class workflow model for:
```text
Markdown sources -> extracted data products -> processors -> generated outputs
```
See `docs/markdown-dataflow-workflow-assessment.md`.
## P11.1 - Define workflow plan model
```task
id: MKTT-WP-0011-T001
status: todo
priority: high
state_hub_task_id: "c335cbaa-dfb9-4df5-b1ae-87aaf6097bd8"
```
Define a Markdown/YAML workflow plan format with sources, named data products,
steps, outputs, variables, dry-run behavior, diagnostics, and provenance.
Output: workflow schema, examples, and validation diagnostics.
## P11.2 - Implement Markdown source collectors
```task
id: MKTT-WP-0011-T002
status: todo
priority: high
state_hub_task_id: "16a89801-d96d-437f-a883-81d09586f47a"
```
Collect source data from files, globs, directories, frontmatter paths,
selectors, sections, blocks, metrics, and future reference/index backends.
Output: source collector API, selector integration, and tests.
## P11.3 - Implement deterministic step registry
```task
id: MKTT-WP-0011-T003
status: todo
priority: high
state_hub_task_id: "808bed93-c7e2-4b34-90f4-f6f961fef503"
```
Create step types for query/extract, transform, compose, include, template
render, contract stub generation, contract checks, and data shaping.
Output: deterministic workflow runner with dependency ordering.
## P11.4 - Implement data expression and binding model
```task
id: MKTT-WP-0011-T004
status: todo
priority: high
state_hub_task_id: "ea1ad9d2-3668-4b65-afb4-f490e5bfd0c6"
```
Allow workflow steps and outputs to reference previous results by stable names,
for example `${sources.adrs.decisions}` or `${steps.summary.markdown}`.
Output: expression resolver, type checks, and missing-reference diagnostics.
## P11.5 - Add optional assisted processing step boundary
```task
id: MKTT-WP-0011-T005
status: todo
priority: medium
state_hub_task_id: "ed1adc60-fdd8-4d4c-b4d7-7ce906e641c6"
```
Add assisted step support through the provider-neutral generation hook protocol.
The workflow engine must not require provider dependencies and must support
dry-run, optional steps, and policy gates before sending data to a provider.
Output: hook adapter interface and tests with fake providers.
## P11.6 - Implement multi-output sinks
```task
id: MKTT-WP-0011-T006
status: todo
priority: high
state_hub_task_id: "902707d7-46fe-45d6-a9ec-b85763065ff9"
```
Support writing one or many Markdown outputs from templates, generated content,
or composed results. Outputs must be path-safe, reproducible, and traceable to
their source data.
Output: output sink API, path-safety checks, and provenance manifests.
## P11.7 - Add workflow CLI
```task
id: MKTT-WP-0011-T007
status: todo
priority: high
state_hub_task_id: "ccc26867-5724-4205-b3fe-a8b9d046775d"
```
Add:
```text
mkt workflow inspect <workflow.md>
mkt workflow plan <workflow.md>
mkt workflow run <workflow.md>
```
Include JSON/YAML outputs for agent use.
## P11.8 - Add representative end-to-end examples
```task
id: MKTT-WP-0011-T008
status: todo
priority: high
state_hub_task_id: "f8501ea6-1ead-477d-8f64-c196e7edfe68"
```
Create examples covering:
- multiple ADRs -> release notes
- contract data -> generated documents
- source snippets -> docs
- deterministic summary -> optional assisted review -> final Markdown
## Exit Criteria
- A non-programmer can write a Markdown/YAML workflow that extracts data from
Markdown documents and generates new Markdown outputs.
- The same workflow is repeatable for identical inputs.
- Assisted steps are optional and external.
- Diagnostics identify which source, step, or output failed.
- The implementation remains compatible with future references/processors,
cache/provenance, context engines, and access-control policy.
