Model-guided experiment cycle

Use observations to propose a constrained next experiment batch while preserving each iteration.

collect observations→update model→propose experiments→apply safety constraints→run selected experiments→record observations

Model-guided experiment cycle

Activity responsibilities

Activity	Responsibility
collect-observations	Execute the collect observations stage and publish its declared outputs for downstream activities.
update-model	Execute the update model stage and publish its declared outputs for downstream activities.
propose-experiments	Execute the propose experiments stage and publish its declared outputs for downstream activities.
apply-safety-constraints	Execute the apply safety constraints stage and publish its declared outputs for downstream activities.
run-selected-experiments	Execute the run selected experiments stage and publish its declared outputs for downstream activities.
record-observations	Execute the record observations stage and publish its declared outputs for downstream activities.

Inputs

• Observation history
• Search space
• Safety and budget

Outputs

• Updated model
• Selected experiments
• New observations

Provenance to preserve

• Iteration parent
• Rejected proposals
• Experiment measurements

Source bundle

The executable workflow and its implementation files are maintained in the separate AkôFlow examples repository. The documentation intentionally keeps code, container recipes, generators, and validation scripts out of the narrative page.

Verified local execution

These captures and the output manifest were produced by the fixture's local Docker run and validator. They are published with the same bundle as the runnable files.

Execution considerations

Represent each cycle as a durable iteration with explicit pause, approval, termination, and re-entry policies.

AkôFlow boundary: the engine schedules, deploys, executes, transfers data, and records evidence. The ML or agent framework remains an implementation choice inside each activity.
