Batch execution validates gateway pairs, runs partition sub-graphs as child workflows, merges item results, and enforces deterministic and depth limits. ChangesWorkflow execution
Estimated code review effort: 5 (Critical) | ~120 minutes Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to The new batch workflow path can skip downstream work, merge the wrong item mutations, or mishandle signaling and child execution for invalid or legacy definitions.

Inline comments:
In `@workflow/batch_gateway.go`:
- Line 239: Validate each item’s ID before partitioning or populating
mergedItems: reject empty IDs and duplicate identities, including values that
collide after formatting such as 1 and "1", and return the validation error
before batch execution. Update the logic surrounding mergedItems and the batch
execution entry point while preserving normal processing for unique valid IDs.
Apply the same fix in `@workflow/dsl.go` around lines 203 - 205.
In `@workflow/batch_validate.go`:
- Line 11: Update ValidateBatchGateways to inspect each BATCH_JOIN node’s
outgoing edges and return a validation error unless the count is exactly one;
this must reject both zero-edge and multiple-edge joins while preserving valid
single-edge workflows and the existing skipToJoinOutEdge behavior.
In `@workflow/README.md`:
- Around line 32-35: Update the workflow diagram around Split1 so the SIGNALING:
WAIT and SIGNALING: EMIT branches are shown as child workflows created by
Split1, with their existing condition routing and join behavior preserved.
Ensure the diagram no longer places these signaling branches before Split1 or
outside its sibling-child structure.
In `@workflow/utils.go`:
- Line 65: Update the child workflow ID construction around the fmt.Sprintf call
to use an unambiguous encoding for parentWorkflowID, nodeID, and partitionKey,
such as length-prefixing or escaping each segment before joining them. Preserve
deterministic IDs while ensuring nested segments and IDs containing “--” cannot
produce collisions.
In `@workflow/workflow.go`:
- Around line 390-395: Validate workflow definitions at the ingress paths
StartWorkflow and FetchWorkflowDefinitionHandler, not only in
GraphInterpreterWorkflow, and reject or migrate legacy sys:wait_for_signal and
sys:emit_signal task IDs before they reach ExecuteTaskActivity. Ensure invalid
legacy definitions cannot execute as ordinary tasks while preserving supported
task definitions.

PTAL these 3 issues
-
Silent merge corruption (
workflow/batch_gateway.go)
Merge keys arefmt.Sprintf("%v", id). Two items withid: "A", or1vs"1", overwrite one child’s result, then that single map is applied to every original item with that key. For consignments this is data corruption, not a corner-case log line. Reject empty and duplicate IDs before spawn -
Breaking signaling change, labeled non-breaking (
workflow/workflow.go)
handleTaskNodeno longer special-casessys:wait_for_signal/sys:emit_signal. Stored or in-flight definitions using those task IDs now go throughExecuteTaskActivityas ordinary tasks.EMITalso changed from fire-and-forget to blockingfuture.Get. Ingress (StartWorkflow) does not reject the old IDs. Either call this breaking and add a shim that errors, or do not claim 100% compatibility -
Subgraph leak duplicates downstream work (
extractSubGraph)
ValidateBatchGatewaysonly checks 1:1 pair names. The extractor walks every reachable node until the paired join. An edge that escapes the region pulls post-join tasks (e.g.issue_cert) into the child; the parent then runs them again after merge. The PR’s own TODO for full graph validation is load-bearing. Enforce that every path from aBATCH_SPLITreaches its join and that nothing leaves except through that join

@ginaxu1 re the comments:
Good catch, this was fixed in 347649d
This is related to #148 which this PR was based on top of. All of these are covered in that PR.
Good catch, added validation to avoid this case. |

@Aravinda-HWK ready for review. Out of the 1700 diff, 1000 is test code, 150 is the static validation. main feature is around 500 lines of diff. |

Thanks for addressing. seems there is still silent merge revert. While falling back to the original item when a child did not return that ID is the design; seems we're still ignoring toItemSlice errors / nil child output, which makes a corrupt items payload look like No mutations
ah yes, fixed |
Summary
Adds support for composable batch partitioning gateways (
BATCH_SPLITandBATCH_JOIN) to the workflow graph interpreter engine. This enables multi-item consignments (e.g. commodities/line-items) to be partitioned by per-item edge condition expressions, processed concurrently across inline sub-graphs as child workflows using the same graph interpreter, and merged back together by item ID into a unified slice.Type of Change
