# SYSTEM STANDARD: POLYGLOT CODE GENERATION PROTOCOL (GRACE-Poly)
**OBJECTIVE:** Generate Python and Svelte/TypeScript code that strictly adheres to Semantic Coherence standards. Output must be machine-readable, fractal-structured, and optimized for Sparse Attention navigation.
## I. CORE REQUIREMENTS
1. **Causal Validity:** Semantic definitions (Contracts) must ALWAYS precede implementation code.
2. **Immutability:** Architectural decisions defined in the Module/Component Header are treated as immutable constraints.
3. **Format Compliance:** Output must strictly follow the `[DEF:..:...]` / `[/DEF:...:...]` anchor syntax for structure.
4. **Logic over Assertion:** Contracts define the *logic flow*. Do not generate explicit `assert` statements unless requested. The code logic itself must inherently satisfy the Pre/Post conditions (e.g., via control flow, guards, or types).
5. **Fractal Complexity:** Modules and functions must adhere to strict size limits (~300 lines/module, ~30-50 lines/function) to maintain semantic focus.
---
## II. SYNTAX SPECIFICATION
Code structure is defined by **Anchors** (square brackets). Metadata is defined by **Tags** (native comment style).
### 1. Entity Anchors (The "Container")
Used to define the boundaries of Modules, Classes, Components, and Functions.
* **Python:**
* Start: `# [DEF:identifier:Type]`
* End: `# [/DEF:identifier:Type]`
* **Svelte (Top-level):**
* Start: ``
* End: ``
* **Svelte (Script/JS/TS):**
* Start: `// [DEF:funcName:Function]`
* End: `// [/DEF:funcName:Function]`
**Types:** `Module`, `Component`, `Class`, `Function`, `Store`, `Action`.
### 2. Graph Relations (The "Map")
Defines high-level dependencies.
* **Python Syntax:** `# @RELATION: TYPE -> TARGET_ID`
* **Svelte/JS Syntax:** `// @RELATION: TYPE -> TARGET_ID`
* **Types:** `DEPENDS_ON`, `CALLS`, `INHERITS_FROM`, `IMPLEMENTS`, `BINDS_TO`, `DISPATCHES`.

## III. FILE STRUCTURE STANDARD
### 1. Python Module Header (`.py`)
```python
# [DEF:module_name:Module]
#
# @SEMANTICS: [keywords for vector search]
# @PURPOSE: [Primary responsibility of the module]
# @LAYER: [Domain/Infra/API]
# @RELATION: [Dependencies]
#
# @INVARIANT: [Global immutable rule]
# @CONSTRAINT: [Hard restriction, e.g., "No ORM calls here"]
# [SECTION: IMPORTS]
...
# [/SECTION]
# ... IMPLEMENTATION ...
# [/DEF:module_name:Module]
```
### 2. Svelte Component Header (`.svelte`)
```html
...
```

## IV. CONTRACTS (Design by Contract & Semantic Control)
Contracts are the **Source of Truth** and the **Control Vector** for the code. They must be written with high **semantic density** to ensure the LLM fully "understands" the function's role within the larger Graph without needing to read the implementation body.
### 1. The Anatomy of a Semantic Contract
Every contract must answer three questions for the AI Agent:
1. **Intent:** *Why* does this exist? (Vector alignment)
2. **Boundaries:** *What* are the constraints? (Pre/Post/Invariants)
3. **Dynamics:** *How* does it change the system state? (Side Effects/Graph)
#### Standard Tags Taxonomy:
* `@PURPOSE`: (**Mandatory**) A concise, high-entropy summary of functionality.
* `@PRE`: (**Mandatory**) Conditions required *before* execution. Defines the valid input space.
* `@POST`: (**Mandatory**) Conditions guaranteed *after* execution. Defines the valid output space.
* `@PARAM`: Input definitions with strict typing.
* `@RETURN`: Output definition.
* `@THROW`: Explicit failure modes.
* `@SIDE_EFFECT`: (**Critical**) Explicitly lists external state mutations (DB writes, UI updates, events). Vital for "Mental Modeling".
* `@INVARIANT`: (**Optional**) Local rules that hold true throughout the function execution.
* `@ALGORITHM`: (**Optional**) For complex logic, briefly describes the strategy (e.g., "Two-pointer approach", "Retry with exponential backoff").
* `@RELATION`: (**Graph**) Edges to other nodes (`CALLS`, `DISPATCHES`, `DEPENDS_ON`).
---
### 2. Python Contract Style (`.py`)
Uses structured comment blocks inside the anchor. Focuses on type hints and logic flow guards.
```python
# [DEF:process_order_batch:Function]
# @PURPOSE: Orchestrates the validation and processing of a batch of orders.
# Ensures atomic processing per order (failure of one does not stop others).
#
# @PRE: batch_id must be a valid UUID string.
# @PRE: orders list must not be empty.
# @POST: Returns a dict mapping order_ids to their processing status (Success/Failed).
# @INVARIANT: The length of the returned dict must equal the length of input orders.
#
# @PARAM: batch_id (str) - The unique identifier for the batch trace.
# @PARAM: orders (List[OrderDTO]) - List of immutable order objects.
# @RETURN: Dict[str, OrderStatus] - Result map.
#
# @SIDE_EFFECT: Writes audit logs to DB.
# @SIDE_EFFECT: Publishes 'ORDER_PROCESSED' event to MessageBus.
#
# @RELATION: CALLS -> InventoryService.reserve_items
# @RELATION: CALLS -> PaymentGateway.authorize
# @RELATION: WRITES_TO -> Database.AuditLog
def process_order_batch(batch_id: str, orders: List[OrderDTO]) -> Dict[str, OrderStatus]:
# 1. Structural Guard Logic (Handling @PRE)
if not orders:
return {}
# 2. Implementation with @INVARIANT in mind
results = {}
for order in orders:
# ... logic ...
pass
# 3. Completion (Logic naturally satisfies @POST)
return results
# [/DEF:process_order_batch:Function]
```
### 3. Svelte/JS Contract Style (JSDoc++)
Uses enhanced JSDoc. Since JS is less strict than Python, the contract acts as a strict typing and behavioral guard.
```javascript
// [DEF:handleUserLogin:Function]
/**
* @purpose Authenticates the user and synchronizes the local UI state.
* Handles the complete lifecycle from form submission to redirection.
*
* @pre LoginForm must be valid (validated by UI constraints).
* @pre Network must be available (optimistic check).
* @post SessionStore contains a valid JWT token.
* @post User is redirected to the Dashboard.
*
* @param {LoginCredentials} credentials - Email and password object.
* @returns {Promise}
* @throws {NetworkError} If API is unreachable.
* @throws {AuthError} If credentials are invalid (401).
*
* @side_effect Updates global $session store.
* @side_effect Clears any existing error toasts.
*
* @algorithm 1. Set loading state -> 2. API Call -> 3. Decode Token -> 4. Update Store -> 5. Redirect.
*/
// @RELATION: CALLS -> api.auth.login
// @RELATION: MODIFIES_STATE_OF -> stores.session
// @RELATION: DISPATCHES -> 'toast:success'
async function handleUserLogin(credentials) {
// 1. Guard Clause (@PRE)
if (!isValid(credentials)) return;
try {
// ... logic ...
} catch (e) {
// Error handling (@THROW)
}
}
// [/DEF:handleUserLogin:Function]
```

### 4. Semantic Rules for Contracts
1. **Completeness:** A developer (or Agent) must be able to write the function body *solely* by reading the Contract, without guessing.
2. **No Implementation Leakage:** Describe *what* happens, not *how* (unless using `@ALGORITHM` for complexity reasons). E.g., say "Persists user" instead of "Inserts into users table via SQL".
3. **Active Voice:** Use active verbs (`Calculates`, `Updates`, `Enforces`) to stronger vector alignment.
4. **Graph Connectivity:** The `@RELATION` tags must explicitly link to other `[DEF:...]` IDs existing in the codebase. This builds the navigation graph for RAG.
---
## V. LOGGING STANDARD (BELIEF STATE)
Logs delineate the agent's internal state.
* **Python:** MUST use a Context Manager (e.g., `with belief_scope("ANCHOR_ID"):`) to ensure state consistency and automatic handling of Entry/Exit/Error states.
* Manual logging (inside scope): `logger.info(f"[{ANCHOR_ID}][{STATE}] Msg")`
* **Svelte/JS:** `console.log(\`[${ANCHOR_ID}][${STATE}] Msg\`)`
**Required States:**
1. `Entry` (Start of block - Auto-logged by Context Manager)
2. `Action` (Key business logic - Manual log)
3. `Coherence:OK` (Logic successfully completed - Auto-logged by Context Manager)
4. `Coherence:Failed` (Exception/Error - Auto-logged by Context Manager)
5. `Exit` (End of block - Auto-logged by Context Manager)
---
## VI. FRACTAL COMPLEXITY LIMIT
To maintain semantic coherence and avoid "Attention Sink" issues:
* **Module Size:** If a Module body exceeds ~300 lines (or logical complexity), it MUST be refactored into sub-modules or a package structure.
* **Function Size:** Functions should fit within a standard attention "chunk" (approx. 30-50 lines). If larger, logic MUST be decomposed into helper functions with their own contracts.
This ensures every vector embedding remains sharp and focused.
---
## VII. GENERATION WORKFLOW
1. **Context Analysis:** Identify language (Python vs Svelte) and Architecture Layer.
2. **Scaffolding:** Generate the `[DEF:...:...]` Anchors and Header/Contract **before** writing any logic.
3. **Implementation:** Write the code. Ensure the code logic handles the `@PRE` conditions (e.g., via `if/return` or guards) and satisfies `@POST` conditions naturally. **Do not write explicit `assert` statements unless debugging mode is requested.**
4. **Closure:** Ensure every `[DEF:...:...]` is closed with `[/DEF:...:...]` to accumulate semantic context.
