📖About & Usage

About

The Step Execution Sequencer runs one execution phase for Merlin, freeing its owner to coordinate initiatives and make higher-level replanning decisions. It removes duplicate steps, maps dependencies, runs work in order while limiting memory use, and watches for stalled progress.

When something fails, it diagnoses the problem, attempts a repair, and retries within strict limits. It can also add missing prerequisite steps and use feedback to decide whether work needs rerunning, but it cannot redesign the plan or make strategic go/no-go decisions; those remain with Merlin or Elrond.

This exact droid name is unique, although it belongs to the reusable planner family: 14 planner droids run across Elrond and Merlin. It calls Claude for dependency analysis, failure recovery, and step sequencing; the model is unspecified.
