Complete workflow cancellation: An old cancellation request terminates a newer run · case 05

The workflow cancel operation is admitted even though an old cancellation request terminates a newer run.

Member previewVariant 5 · 3 implementations · 9 checks per implementation

Case contract

Return a Boolean admission decision for complete workflow cancellation. The record r must satisfy all of: all(r['child_propagation']); r['activity_cleanup'] is True; r['terminal_stability'] not in ['completed','failed']; r['request_generation'][0] == r['request_generation'][1]; r['cleanup_deadline'][0] <= r['cleanup_deadline'][1]. Extra tracing fields are ignored; validation does not mutate the record.

Why this case matters

A deterministic local contract for workflow orchestration. Each negative fixture violates exactly one invariant. No transport timing, persistence, cryptographic verification, or full protocol implementation is claimed.

One recorded failure

Sample boundary fixture

This sample comes from the broken implementation of a controlled reproducer.
