Analysis / Business automation and AI evaluation

Check composed Action failure propagation

Check composed Action failure propagation in Proforma. Trace parent and child outcomes, identify hidden failures and propose synthetic checks before release.

A starting point for

Automation engineer

Bring this question into Chat

Your starting prompt.

Inspect [composed Action] and [child execution records]. Trace how child success, failure and partial outputs propagate to the parent result, including retries and continuation runs. Identify cases where a completed parent could conceal a failed child or incomplete business outcome. Propose source changes and synthetic failure tests with explicit expected statuses. Do not report the workflow successful from the parent completion flag alone or rerun real external effects.

Copy this starting point, then replace the placeholders with your own inputs.

Method and review

Keep the assumptions visible.

Define inputs, outputs, permissions and failure conditions before implementing an Action. Evaluate AI against representative labeled examples and retain human approval for consequential steps.

For this task, check

The automation owner should verify the actual business outcome contract and partial-write recovery before release.

This starting prompt has no published worked example yet. Begin with a small sample and check the calculations before relying on the result.

Before you begin

  • Permitted parent and child Action source
  • Accessible execution evidence and defined outcome criteria

Work with permitted files or queryable data. Verify the result against the original records.
