Full Task ID: E5:S01:T44
Repository Pattern: FR-044 = E5:S01:T44 (abstract space: v0.5.1.44+0)
Scope
Add a temporary execution log file to RW that is written during execution. Enables (a) recovery of aborted runs (e.g. IDE crashes), and (b) forensic analysis of workflow behavior.
Input
- FR-044: FR-044-rw-temporary-execution-log-for-recovery-and-forensics.md
- RW Agent Guide:
packages/frameworks/workflow mgt/docs/documentation/Developer_Docs/vwmp/release-workflow-agent-execution.md - rw-config.yaml: Project config for paths
Deliverable
- RW creates/opens a log file at start of execution
- Each RW step writes start and completion (or failure) to the log
- Log includes sufficient context for recovery (step number, key outputs, file paths)
- Log path configurable via rw-config.yaml (optional)
- Documented in RW agent execution guide
Acceptance Criteria
- RW creates/opens log file at start
- Each step writes start and completion to log
- Log includes step number, key outputs, file paths
- Log path configurable via rw-config.yaml
- Documented in RW agent execution guide
