- Creating multi-step processes with variable binding
- Building workflows that must survive restarts
- When NDI (Nondeterministic Idempotence) is needed
Process
- Define formula steps and variables in TOML format
- Validate formula structure and dependencies
- Cook into protomolecule (resolve variables, freeze)
- Test by instantiating a trial molecule
- Register in the formula library for reuse
Formula Lifecycle
Formula (TOML template) -> Protomolecule (frozen) -> Molecule (active, durable)
Key Concepts
- Formula: TOML-based workflow template with variables
- Protomolecule: Frozen template ready to instantiate
- Molecule: Active durable workflow surviving restarts
- NDI: Nondeterministic Idempotence - useful outcomes from unreliable processes
