Summary

Add binding configuration support for specifying item types on choice groups, enabling the code generator to produce typed collections like List<? extends IConstraintBase> instead of List<Object>.

  • Add choice-group-binding element to metaschema-bindings.yaml schema with item-type and use-wildcard configuration
  • Create IChoiceGroupBindingConfiguration interface and DefaultChoiceGroupBindingConfiguration implementation
  • Update DefaultBindingConfiguration to parse choice-group-binding elements from binding config files
  • Update DefaultTypeResolver.getClassName(IChoiceGroupInstance) to use item-type from binding configuration
  • Update ChoiceGroupTypeInfoImpl to generate wildcard bounded types (List<? extends Type>) when configured
  • Add bootstrap POM for databind-metaschema module regeneration
  • Add comprehensive unit tests for binding configuration parsing and type generation

Also updates .claude/rules/development-workflow.md to strengthen TDD requirements and add mandatory parallel agent usage guidance.

Test plan

  • Unit tests for DefaultChoiceGroupBindingConfiguration
  • Unit tests for DefaultBindingConfigurationTest choice group parsing
  • Unit tests for DefaultTypeResolverTest item-type resolution
  • Unit tests for ChoiceGroupTypeInfoImplTest wildcard type generation
  • Full CI build passes: mvn clean install -PCI -Prelease

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Documentation

    • Expanded development workflow with stricter TDD enforcement, explicit enforcement gates/stop guidance, “TDD with Parallel Agents” and parallel‑agent usage guidance, reworked phased lifecycle, handling of optional nitpicks, and build‑verification/PR presentation formats.
  • New Features

    • Choice‑group bindings to control generated item types, wildcard vs concrete typing, and collection shape (list vs map).
    • Standalone bootstrap workflow to regenerate metaschema binding code.
  • Tests

    • New unit tests covering choice‑group binding parsing, type resolution, and related codegen behaviors.

✏️ Tip: You can customize this high-level summary in your review settings.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Adds choice-group binding support to metaschema databind: new binding model and YAML, generated binding classes and parser wiring, new config APIs/implementations, type-resolver/codegen changes to honor item-type/wildcard semantics, a bootstrap POM for regeneration, and accompanying unit tests and resources.

Changes

Cohort / File(s) Summary
Development & Workflow
\.claude/rules/development-workflow.md
Strengthens TDD policy, adds enforcement gates, parallel-agent guidance, and verification templates; formatting and checklist restructuring.
Bootstrap Infrastructure
databind-metaschema/pom-bootstrap.xml
New standalone POM to force regeneration of metaschema binding classes (stale-file cleanup + metaschema-maven-plugin generate-sources).
Metaschema Binding Definitions
databind-metaschema/src/main/metaschema-bindings/metaschema-model-bindings.xml, databind/src/main/metaschema/metaschema-bindings.yaml
Adds model-binding and a choice-group-binding assembly with item-type and use-wildcard flag; maps Java package and interfaces.
Generated Binding Model
databind/src/main/java/.../config/binding/MetaschemaBindings.java
Introduces ChoiceGroupBinding and nested ItemType, collection field, accessors, and metaschema annotations to represent choice-group bindings in the binding model.
Binding Configuration APIs
databind/src/main/java/.../codegen/config/IBindingConfiguration.java, .../IDefinitionBindingConfiguration.java, .../IChoiceGroupBindingConfiguration.java
Adds API to query binding config by definition, exposes choice-group bindings map, and defines interface contract (group-as name, optional item-type, wildcard flag).
Configuration Implementations
databind/src/main/java/.../codegen/config/DefaultBindingConfiguration.java, DefaultDefinitionBindingConfiguration.java, DefaultChoiceGroupBindingConfiguration.java
Parser wiring to read choice-group bindings, storage in DefaultDefinitionBindingConfiguration, and concrete DefaultChoiceGroupBindingConfiguration implementation.
Type Resolution & Codegen
databind/src/main/java/.../codegen/typeinfo/ChoiceGroupTypeInfoImpl.java, DefaultTypeResolver.java, ITypeResolver.java
ChoiceGroupTypeInfoImpl.getJavaFieldType() computes singleton vs collection, selects List vs Map by group-as behavior, applies wildcard bounds; DefaultTypeResolver consults binding-config item-type override; ITypeResolver exposes binding configuration.
Tests & Resources
databind/src/test/java/.../config/DefaultBindingConfigurationTest.java, DefaultChoiceGroupBindingConfigurationTest.java, ChoiceGroupTypeInfoImplTest.java, DefaultTypeResolverTest.java, databind/src/test/resources/metaschema/binding-config-with-choice-groups.xml
New unit tests and resource covering parsing, binding behavior, wildcard vs concrete item types, collection vs singleton, and resolver behavior.

Poem

🐇 I nibbled at bindings through the night,

choice groups hopped in, tidy and bright,
Wildcards and bootstraps spun under moon,
Generated types hummed a clever tune,
Hooray — the rabbit packaged it right!

databind/src/test/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/config/DefaultChoiceGroupBindingConfigurationTest.java (1)

44-77: Consider extracting common test setup to reduce duplication.

The test methods share significant boilerplate for loading the binding configuration and setting up mock expectations. This could be extracted to a helper method or @BeforeEach setup.

🔎 Example refactoring to reduce duplication
private DefaultBindingConfiguration loadBindingConfig() throws IOException {
  File bindingConfigFile = new File("src/test/resources/metaschema/binding-config-with-choice-groups.xml");
  DefaultBindingConfiguration config = new DefaultBindingConfiguration();
  config.load(bindingConfigFile);
  return config;
}

private IDefinitionBindingConfiguration getDefinitionConfig(
    DefaultBindingConfiguration config, String mockSuffix) {
  URI assemblyMetaschemaLocation = new File("src/test/resources/metaschema/assembly/metaschema.xml")
      .getAbsoluteFile().toURI();
  
  IAssemblyDefinition testAssemblyDefinition = context.mock(IAssemblyDefinition.class, "testAssembly" + mockSuffix);
  IModule testModule = context.mock(IModule.class, "testModule" + mockSuffix);
  
  context.checking(new Expectations() {{
    allowing(testModule).getLocation();
    will(returnValue(assemblyMetaschemaLocation));
    allowing(testAssemblyDefinition).getContainingModule();
    will(returnValue(testModule));
    allowing(testAssemblyDefinition).getModelType();
    will(returnValue(ModelType.ASSEMBLY));
    allowing(testAssemblyDefinition).getName();
    will(returnValue("test-assembly"));
  }});
  
  return config.getBindingConfigurationForDefinition(ObjectUtils.notNull(testAssemblyDefinition));
}

databind/src/main/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/typeinfo/ChoiceGroupTypeInfoImpl.java (1)

77-88: Consider extracting binding configuration access to avoid instanceof check.

The instanceof DefaultTypeResolver check couples this class to a specific implementation. Consider adding getBindingConfiguration() to ITypeResolver interface to make this more maintainable.

This is acceptable for now given the current architecture, but may warrant refactoring if more places need access to binding configuration through the type resolver.

databind/src/test/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/typeinfo/DefaultTypeResolverTest.java (1)

177-212: Consider adding package name verification for more robust coverage.

The test correctly verifies that the simple name is extracted properly for nested classes. For more comprehensive coverage, consider also verifying that packageName() returns "com.example" to ensure the full qualified name parsing is correct.

🔎 Suggested enhancement
     ClassName result = resolver.getClassName(choiceGroupInstance);
 
     assertNotNull(result);
+    assertEquals("com.example", result.packageName());
     assertEquals("InnerInterface", result.simpleName());

56-121: Strong TDD enforcement foundation aligns with learnings.

The expanded TDD section with "Iron Law" (lines 62-64), Enforcement Gate (lines 76-83), and strengthened Red Flags (lines 85-96) effectively codifies the mandatory-blocking requirement. Lines 92-93 explicitly flag the critical error of dispatching implementation agents before test completion, and line 120 directly addresses agent dispatch prerequisites—this directly implements the learnings that "agents dispatched for implementation MUST have tests written first."

The Common Rationalizations table (lines 100-106) effectively counters the false parallel-execution argument ("Tests and impl in parallel for efficiency") by clarifying that tests MUST complete first.


182-233: Parallel agent guidance effectively operationalizes TDD with concurrency.

Lines 216-232 establish the critical sequencing rule: tests run first in parallel, complete, verify failure, then implementation runs in parallel. The explicit "Correct order" vs "Wrong order" subsection (lines 224-232) leaves no ambiguity. Red flags at lines 210-214 catch the most common mistakes (sequential dispatch, sequential waiting, assumed dependencies).

This section directly addresses the PR objective's "mandatory parallel agent usage guidance" while maintaining TDD's test-first principle.


236-315: Phases 4-5 add necessary workflow completeness with actionable build verification format.

Phase 4 (Code Review Cycle, lines 236-262) structures the review loop with consolidation and re-review gates. Phase 5 (Verification & PR, lines 264-288) introduces the Build Verification Summary format (lines 270-298) with scannable examples showing success/failure/warning states. This provides agents and developers with a concrete, repeatable format for reporting build outcomes.


13-13: Clarify phrasing: "TodoWrite" at line 13.

Line 13 reads: "If a skill has a checklist, create TodoWrite todos for EACH item." The term "TodoWrite" appears either as a tool name or phrasing artifact. If it's a tool reference, add context (e.g., "create todos using the TodoWrite tool"). If it's not a tool, simplify to "create todos for EACH item" for clarity.

databind/src/main/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/config/DefaultBindingConfiguration.java (1)

462-487: LGTM! Clean implementation of choice group binding processing.

The new processChoiceGroupBindings method correctly:

  • Guards against null input with an early return
  • Safely checks for the mutable configuration type before casting
  • Iterates and processes each choice group binding
  • Properly validates the group name before adding the binding

The null-safe design and type checking ensure robustness.

databind/src/main/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/config/IBindingConfiguration.java (1)

71-80: LGTM! Well-documented API addition.

The new getBindingConfigurationForDefinition method is properly documented with complete Javadoc including @param and @return tags, and follows the existing interface patterns.

databind/src/main/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/config/binding/MetaschemaBindings.java (1)

680-689: LGTM! Generated binding classes are structurally sound.

The generated choice group binding structures follow the established patterns with proper:

  • Annotation usage (@BoundAssembly, @BoundFlag, @BoundField, @BoundFieldValue, @MetaschemaField)
  • Javadoc coverage on all public members
  • Null-safe accessors with LinkedList initialization
  • ObjectUtils.requireNonNull guards on collection mutations
  • IBoundObject interface implementation

Based on learnings, generated binding classes in this codebase are produced by metaschema-maven-plugin and any improvements would be tracked at the generator level.

Also applies to: 826-881, 1303-1518

databind/src/main/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/config/IDefinitionBindingConfiguration.java (1)

41-51: LGTM! Clean API extension with comprehensive documentation.

The new getChoiceGroupBindings method:

  • Has complete Javadoc explaining its purpose and return value
  • Uses @NonNull to clearly communicate the contract (never returns null)
  • Follows the existing interface design patterns
databind/src/main/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/typeinfo/DefaultTypeResolver.java (1)

184-192: LGTM! Binding-aware type resolution enhancement is well-implemented.

The updated getClassName(IChoiceGroupInstance) method correctly:

  • Retrieves the parent definition and its binding configuration
  • Safely navigates through binding → choice group config → item type name with proper null checks
  • Uses ClassName.bestGuess() for configured item types
  • Falls back to Object.class when no binding configuration exists

The logic is defensive and maintains backward compatibility.

databind/src/test/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/config/DefaultBindingConfigurationTest.java (1)

297-400: LGTM! Comprehensive test coverage for choice group binding functionality.

The new tests effectively validate:

testChoiceGroupBindingParsing:

  • Parses choice group bindings from XML configuration
  • Verifies all three configured groups are accessible
  • Validates group names, item type names, and wildcard behavior for each group
  • Covers different scenarios (with item type + wildcard, without wildcard, without item type)

testEmptyChoiceGroupBindings:

  • Ensures proper handling when no choice groups are configured
  • Verifies map is non-null but empty

Both tests follow best practices with clear mocking, descriptive assertions, and proper error messages.

databind/src/test/resources/metaschema/binding-config-with-choice-groups.xml (1)

1-37: LGTM! Well-structured test resource covering multiple scenarios.

The XML configuration effectively tests:

  • mixed-content: Choice group with qualified item type and wildcard enabled
  • typed-items: Choice group with simple item type and wildcard disabled
  • untyped-items: Choice group without item type (tests default to Object)
  • simple-assembly: Assembly with no choice groups (tests empty case)

The configuration aligns perfectly with the test assertions in DefaultBindingConfigurationTest and provides comprehensive coverage of choice group binding scenarios.

databind-metaschema/src/main/metaschema-bindings/metaschema-model-bindings.xml (1)

1-63: LGTM! Well-documented bootstrap binding configuration.

The configuration is properly structured with:

  • Clear comments explaining its purpose for databind model regeneration
  • Correct namespace mapping to the appropriate Java package
  • Multiple assembly and field bindings with appropriate Java customizations
  • Helpful ordering comments (assembly bindings before field bindings)

The binding configurations follow established patterns and will support the code generation workflow correctly.

databind/src/test/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/typeinfo/ChoiceGroupTypeInfoImplTest.java (2)

35-119: LGTM! Comprehensive test coverage for choice group type generation.

The test suite effectively validates the key scenarios for getJavaFieldType():

  • Wildcard vs non-wildcard item types
  • List vs Map collection types based on JsonGroupAsBehavior
  • Single vs collection return types based on maxOccurs
  • Fallback to List<Object> when no binding configuration exists

The use of JMock with Synchroniser threading policy is appropriate for JUnit 5 parallel execution.


186-256: Test for KEYED groups correctly validates Map<String, ? extends T> generation.

Good coverage of the keyed group scenario where the generated type should be Map<String, WildcardType> instead of List<WildcardType>.

databind/src/main/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/config/IChoiceGroupBindingConfiguration.java (1)

11-61: LGTM! Clean interface design with comprehensive Javadoc.

The interface provides a minimal, well-documented API for choice group binding configuration. All public methods have proper @return tags, and nullability is correctly annotated with SpotBugs annotations per coding guidelines.

databind/src/test/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/config/DefaultChoiceGroupBindingConfigurationTest.java (1)

35-77: LGTM! Tests properly validate binding configuration parsing.

The test methods effectively validate the DefaultChoiceGroupBindingConfiguration behavior through integration with DefaultBindingConfiguration and XML parsing.

databind/src/main/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/config/DefaultDefinitionBindingConfiguration.java (1)

24-25: LGTM! Well-designed additions for choice group binding support.

The implementation correctly:

  • Uses LinkedHashMap for deterministic iteration order
  • Returns an unmodifiable view via Collections.unmodifiableMap() to prevent external modification
  • Properly copies bindings in the copy constructor
  • Includes complete Javadoc on the new addChoiceGroupBinding method

Also applies to: 45-45, 77-93

databind/src/main/metaschema/metaschema-bindings.yaml (1)

143-171: LGTM! Well-structured schema addition for choice group bindings.

The new choice-group-binding assembly definition:

  • Follows the established patterns of existing binding definitions in the schema
  • Correctly defines the name flag as required
  • Properly nests use-wildcard as a flag on item-type with default "true"
  • Uses appropriate types (token for names and types, boolean for flags)
databind-metaschema/pom-bootstrap.xml (1)

1-93: LGTM! Well-documented bootstrap POM for binding regeneration.

The POM structure is clear with appropriate documentation explaining the usage workflow and circular dependency considerations. The two-step process (clean stale marker, then generate) ensures reliable regeneration. All referenced file paths and directories are correctly configured and present in the repository.

databind/src/test/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/typeinfo/DefaultTypeResolverTest.java (3)

36-46: LGTM!

The test class setup follows correct JMock patterns with JUnit 5. The Synchroniser threading policy is appropriate for parallel test execution, and the field-level mock initialization order is safe.


52-99: LGTM!

These tests correctly verify the fallback behavior to Object.class when binding configuration is missing or when the choice group binding is not present in the configuration. The expectations are properly constrained with oneOf().


105-175: LGTM!

These tests effectively verify the type resolution logic for configured item types. Test 3 properly validates both the package name and simple name extraction. Test 4 correctly verifies the null fallback behavior. The use of allowing() is appropriate for the getItemTypeName() method.

🧹 Nitpick comments (3)
.claude/rules/development-workflow.md (1)

216-233: Clarify how parallel test agents verify failure reasons independently.

The "TDD with Parallel Agents" section (correct order: 1. Parallel test agents, 2. Verify tests fail, 3. Parallel implementation agents) works well in principle. However, when multiple test agents write tests in parallel, the verification step (line 221: "Verify tests fail for the right reasons") becomes ambiguous: should failures be verified as a group after all test agents complete, or individually as each agent finishes?

Consider adding brief guidance like:

"After all test agents complete, run the full test suite once to verify all new tests fail for the right reasons (not syntax errors or unrelated failures)."

This clarifies the collective verification step without adding process overhead.

databind/src/main/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/typeinfo/ChoiceGroupTypeInfoImpl.java (2)

83-83: Minor typo: "maxOccurance" should be "maxOccurrence".

The variable name has a spelling error.

🔎 Proposed fix
-    int maxOccurance = instance.getMaxOccurs();
-    if (maxOccurance == -1 || maxOccurance > 1) {
+    int maxOccurrence = instance.getMaxOccurs();
+    if (maxOccurrence == -1 || maxOccurrence > 1) {

89-100: Consider extracting binding configuration lookup to avoid coupling to DefaultTypeResolver.

The instanceof DefaultTypeResolver check creates a tight coupling to the concrete implementation. While functional, this could be refactored by adding a method to ITypeResolver to retrieve the binding configuration, making the design more flexible.

However, this is a minor design consideration and doesn't block the current functionality.

40-51: Well-documented API addition for choice group bindings.

The new getChoiceGroupBindings() method is properly annotated with @NonNull and includes comprehensive Javadoc explaining the purpose and key semantics (keyed by group-as name). This cleanly extends the interface to support the new choice group binding feature.

databind/src/main/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/config/IChoiceGroupBindingConfiguration.java (1)

1-61: Well-designed interface with comprehensive documentation.

The new IChoiceGroupBindingConfiguration interface is cleanly designed with:

  • Appropriate null-safety annotations (@NonNull for getGroupAsName(), @Nullable for getItemTypeName())
  • Complete Javadoc on all methods including @return tags
  • Clear documentation of the default behavior for isUseWildcard() (defaults to true when item type is specified)
databind/src/main/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/config/IBindingConfiguration.java (1)

70-80: Appropriate extension to retrieve per-definition binding configuration.

The new getBindingConfigurationForDefinition() method is properly documented with @param and @return tags, and correctly annotated with @Nullable return type and @NonNull parameter. This enables callers to access definition-specific binding metadata needed for the choice group feature.

databind-metaschema/src/main/metaschema-bindings/metaschema-model-bindings.xml (1)

1-63: Well-structured binding configuration for bootstrap generation.

The configuration properly:

  • Follows the required ordering (assembly bindings before field bindings) as noted in the comments
  • Uses the correct package naming convention (gov.nist.secauto.metaschema.databind.model.metaschema.binding)
  • Maps definitions to appropriate interfaces and base classes

The relative path to the core metaschema module (../../../../core/metaschema/schema/metaschema/metaschema-module-metaschema.xml) is typical for Maven multi-module project structures.

databind/src/main/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/config/DefaultBindingConfiguration.java (2)

462-487: Sound implementation with appropriate defensive checks.

The processChoiceGroupBindings helper correctly:

  • Guards against null input and non-mutable configurations via the instanceof check
  • Validates groupAsName is non-null before processing each binding
  • Uses the new DefaultChoiceGroupBindingConfiguration wrapper appropriately

The design allows the method to gracefully handle cases where the configuration is not a DefaultDefinitionBindingConfiguration, maintaining backward compatibility.


338-340: Proper integration of choice group binding processing.

The new call to processChoiceGroupBindings is correctly placed after property bindings processing, ensuring choice group bindings are registered for each assembly definition.

databind/src/test/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/typeinfo/ChoiceGroupTypeInfoImplTest.java (1)

38-391: Comprehensive test coverage for choice group type generation.

The test class thoroughly covers the key scenarios for ChoiceGroupTypeInfoImpl.getJavaFieldType():

  • Wildcard vs. non-wildcard item types
  • List vs. Map collection types (based on JsonGroupAsBehavior)
  • Singleton when maxOccurs == 1
  • Default List<Object> when no binding configuration exists
  • Bounded multi-item (maxOccurs > 1)

The use of JMock 5 with Synchroniser for thread safety and descriptive test method names aligns with the coding guidelines.

databind/src/main/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/config/DefaultDefinitionBindingConfiguration.java (2)

24-25: Good choice of LinkedHashMap for deterministic ordering.

Using LinkedHashMap ensures consistent iteration order for choice group bindings, which is beneficial for deterministic code generation output.


77-93: Well-implemented accessor and mutator for choice group bindings.

The implementation correctly:

  • Returns an unmodifiable view via Collections.unmodifiableMap() to prevent external modification
  • Documents the addChoiceGroupBinding method with proper @param tags
  • Uses @NonNull annotations for null safety
databind/src/main/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/typeinfo/ChoiceGroupTypeInfoImpl.java (1)

63-74: Good: Javadoc added for the new public method.

The Javadoc properly documents the method's behavior, including the conditions for returning collection types vs. singletons and the wildcard type generation based on binding configuration.

databind/src/test/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/typeinfo/DefaultTypeResolverTest.java (1)

36-214: LGTM! Comprehensive test coverage for choice group type resolution.

The test class provides thorough coverage of DefaultTypeResolver's choice group type resolution behavior:

  • No binding configuration scenario
  • Binding configuration without choice group binding
  • Configured item type (standard and nested class names)
  • Null item type handling

The test structure is well-organized with proper JMock usage and clear assertions.

databind/src/main/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/config/binding/MetaschemaBindings.java (1)

5-6: Generated binding code is properly structured.

This file is generated by metaschema-maven-plugin (as indicated by the header). The new choice group binding support follows the same patterns as existing generated code:

  • Proper annotations (@BoundAssembly, @BoundField, @BoundFlag, @BoundFieldValue)
  • Consistent accessor method patterns
  • Standard IBoundObject implementation
  • Complete Javadoc coverage

Based on learnings, any improvements to generated code should be made at the code generator level rather than by manually editing this file.

85-96: Clarify which red flags apply to parallel agents vs. TDD.

Lines 92–93 introduce parallel-agent-specific red flags, but they're embedded within a TDD red flags list. While the separation note at line 96 helps, consider grouping these earlier or making the TDD-only red flags clearer (e.g., lines 87–91 vs. 92–93).

🔎 Suggested clarity improvement
 ### Red Flags (You're Skipping TDD)

-If you catch yourself doing ANY of these, STOP IMMEDIATELY:
+If you catch yourself doing ANY of these TDD violations, STOP IMMEDIATELY:
 - Writing implementation code before tests
 - "I'll add tests after I get it working"
 - "This is too simple to need tests"
 - "Let me just make this small change first"
+
+**Parallel-agent-specific red flags:**
 - Dispatching implementation agents before test agents complete
 - Dispatching tests and implementation in the same parallel batch
 - Modifying code without first verifying existing test coverage

-**Note:** Multiple test-writing agents CAN run in parallel with each other. See "TDD with Parallel Agents" section.

220-228: Reduce repetition of "right" in TDD with Parallel Agents section.

The phrase "fail for the right reasons" appears at lines 221 and 226, creating stylistic redundancy. Consider rewording one instance.

🔎 Suggested word-choice improvement
 **Correct order:**
 1. Parallel agents write tests → all complete
-2. Run the full test suite to verify all new tests fail for the right reasons (not syntax errors or unrelated failures)
+2. Run the full test suite to verify all new tests fail for valid reasons (not syntax errors or unrelated failures)
 3. Parallel agents write implementation → all complete
 4. Verify tests pass

Learning: In metaschema-framework/metaschema-java, generated binding classes in package gov.nist.csrc.ns.metaschema.test_suite._1_0 (and similar generated binding packages) are pre-generated by metaschema-maven-plugin and checked into source control. Javadoc coverage issues in these generated classes should be tracked as code generator improvements rather than file-level issues, and improvements are deferred to generator enhancements.

182-234: New Parallel Agent Usage section is well-structured and actionable.

The "Parallel Agent Usage (MANDATORY)" section clearly defines when and how to dispatch agents in parallel, with explicit correct vs. wrong ordering for TDD workflows. The integration with the TDD section (lines 216–233 on "TDD with Parallel Agents") provides concrete guidance that aligns with the PR's expanded workflow capabilities.


56-122: TDD section enhancements strengthen enforcement and clarity.

The "Iron Law of TDD" (lines 62–64), "Enforcement Gate" checklist (lines 76–83), and expanded "Common Rationalizations" table (lines 100–106) provide clear, non-negotiable guidance. The addition of parallel-agent considerations at lines 92–93 properly bridges TDD and the new parallel-agent workflow. Well aligned with repo learnings on TDD-first practices.


270-298: Build Verification Summary Format provides actionable template and examples.

The new section (lines 270–298) gives clear formatting guidance with both passing and failing examples, including guidance on when to use ✅/❌/⚠️ markers. This supports the Phase 5 verification workflow and makes build reporting consistent and scannable.

databind/src/main/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/config/IDefinitionBindingConfiguration.java (1)

40-51: LGTM!

The new getChoiceGroupBindings() method is well-documented with proper Javadoc including @return tag, and correctly annotated with @NonNull for null safety. The design choice to key by group-as name aligns well with how choice groups are identified in Metaschema.

databind/src/main/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/config/IBindingConfiguration.java (1)

70-80: LGTM!

The new getBindingConfigurationForDefinition() method has complete Javadoc with @param and @return tags, and appropriate null annotations (@NonNull for input, @Nullable for return when configuration may not exist).

databind/src/main/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/typeinfo/ITypeResolver.java (1)

44-50: LGTM!

The new getBindingConfiguration() method is properly documented and annotated. This addition enables callers to access the binding configuration for binding-aware type resolution decisions.

databind/src/main/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/config/IChoiceGroupBindingConfiguration.java (1)

1-61: LGTM!

Well-designed interface with complete Javadoc coverage including class-level documentation and proper @return tags on all methods. The documentation clearly explains the behavior and defaults (e.g., isUseWildcard() defaults to true when item type is specified). Null safety annotations are correctly applied.

databind/src/main/metaschema/metaschema-bindings.yaml (1)

143-171: LGTM!

The choice-group-binding assembly is well-structured and consistent with existing binding definitions in the schema. The required name flag ensures every binding has a target, and the use-wildcard flag correctly defaults to true matching the interface contract. The nesting of use-wildcard as a flag on item-type makes semantic sense since wildcards are only relevant when an item type is specified.

databind/src/main/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/config/DefaultDefinitionBindingConfiguration.java (2)

24-25: Good choice of LinkedHashMap.

Using LinkedHashMap maintains insertion order consistency, which aligns with the existing pattern of using LinkedList for interfacesToImplement. This ensures deterministic ordering during code generation.


77-93: LGTM!

The implementation correctly:

  • Returns an unmodifiable view of the map via Collections.unmodifiableMap() for encapsulation
  • Provides addChoiceGroupBinding() with complete Javadoc including @param tags
  • Uses @NonNull annotations on method parameters for null safety

The override of getChoiceGroupBindings() appropriately relies on inherited Javadoc from the interface.

databind/src/main/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/config/DefaultChoiceGroupBindingConfiguration.java (2)

13-30: LGTM!

Class-level Javadoc has been added as requested in previous review, providing comprehensive documentation of the class purpose and the fields it maintains. The documentation clearly describes the stored data and their nullability guarantees.


46-61: LGTM!

The constructor correctly handles all scenarios:

  • When itemType is present: extracts the value and respects the useWildcard flag (defaulting to true if not set)
  • When itemType is absent: sets itemTypeName to null and defaults useWildcard to true

The schema guarantees name is required, so the @NonNull annotation on groupAsName is correctly applied.

databind/src/main/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/typeinfo/ChoiceGroupTypeInfoImpl.java (2)

63-74: LGTM!

Javadoc has been added as requested in previous review. The documentation clearly explains the method's behavior, including when collections are returned vs single values, and how binding configuration affects wildcard type generation.


75-110: LGTM!

The getJavaFieldType() implementation correctly:

  1. Determines cardinality from maxOccurs to decide between collection and single-item types
  2. Traverses the binding configuration hierarchy to find choice group settings
  3. Applies WildcardTypeName.subtypeOf() only when an item type is configured with wildcard enabled
  4. Handles both KEYED (Map) and non-keyed (List) JSON group behaviors
  5. Uses ObjectUtils.notNull() to satisfy @NonNull requirements on return

The null-safe chain (defConfig != nullchoiceConfig != nullgetItemTypeName() != null) correctly guards against NPE.

databind-metaschema/src/main/metaschema-bindings/metaschema-model-bindings.xml (1)

1-63: LGTM! Well-structured binding configuration.

The XML binding configuration is well-formed and correctly structured:

  • Namespace and package declarations follow project conventions.
  • Relative path to the metaschema source is appropriate.
  • Binding customizations (class naming, interface implementation, base class extension) are clearly defined.
  • Helpful ordering comments guide maintainers on structural constraints.
databind/src/main/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/config/binding/MetaschemaBindings.java (1)

1-2121: Generated binding code looks correct.

This is a generated binding class (lines 5-6 indicate "Generated from: ../../../../../../../../metaschema/metaschema-bindings.yaml" and "Do not edit - changes will be lost when regenerated."). The generated code follows consistent patterns:

  • Comprehensive Javadoc on all public/protected members with proper @param/@return tags.
  • Correct use of null-safety annotations (@nonnull, @nullable).
  • Proper metaschema binding annotations (@BoundAssembly, @BoundFlag, @BoundField, @BoundFieldValue, @MetaschemaField).
  • Consistent collection initialization and ObjectUtils.requireNonNull usage.
  • New ChoiceGroupBinding and ItemType nested classes follow the same structural patterns as existing classes.

Based on learnings, any improvements to generated binding classes should be addressed at the code generator level rather than through manual edits.

63-110: Javadoc addressed and implementation is correct.

The getJavaFieldType() method now has proper Javadoc documentation. The implementation correctly:

  1. Determines collection vs single-item based on maxOccurs
  2. Applies wildcard bounds when binding configuration enables it
  3. Differentiates between List and Map<String, V> based on JsonGroupAsBehavior.KEYED
🧹 Nitpick comments (3)

182-234: Parallel Agent Usage section is comprehensive, but integration could be clarified.

The new "Parallel Agent Usage (MANDATORY)" section provides detailed guidance on when and how to use parallel agents, with good examples and red flags. However, the section appears as a peer to "PRD-Based Development Lifecycle" (line 124) when it should logically sit within that lifecycle (as an aspect of Phase 3: Development).

Consider restructuring to show that parallel agents are a technique within the larger PRD workflow, rather than a standalone workflow. Alternatively, update the "Workflow Summary" diagram (lines 300-315) to show where parallel agents fit in the overall process.


226-226: Minor: Consider varying word choice for "right reasons."

The word "right" appears multiple times in nearby contexts (lines 72, 81, 226) when discussing why tests fail. While "the right reasons" is standard TDD terminology, varying the language slightly—such as "correct reasons," "expected reasons," or "intended reasons"—would improve readability without losing meaning.

databind/src/test/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/config/DefaultChoiceGroupBindingConfigurationTest.java (1)

87-152: Good test coverage for happy paths.

The test methods comprehensively verify the choice group binding configuration behavior: retrieval by name, item type resolution, and wildcard flag handling. Each test has a descriptive name and clear assertions.

Consider adding negative test cases in a follow-up to improve robustness:

  • Non-existent group names (should return null)
  • Malformed XML handling
  • Missing resource files

These are optional enhancements and do not block the current PR.

Learning: In metaschema-framework/metaschema-java, generated binding classes in package gov.nist.csrc.ns.metaschema.test_suite._1_0 (and similar generated binding packages) are pre-generated by metaschema-maven-plugin and checked into source control. Javadoc coverage issues in these generated classes should be tracked as code generator improvements rather than file-level issues, and improvements are deferred to generator enhancements.

56-96: Excellent TDD enforcement structure.

The addition of the "Iron Law of TDD," enforcement gate checklist, and clarified red flags significantly strengthens the TDD guidance. The integration with parallel agents (acknowledging test-writing agents can run in parallel while blocking implementation until tests complete) is a thoughtful distinction that prevents common misconceptions.


216-233: Clear delineation of correct vs. wrong parallel execution order.

The "TDD with Parallel Agents" subsection effectively communicates that multiple test-writing agents can run in parallel, but implementation must wait. The "Correct order" and "Wrong order" examples (lines 224-233) remove ambiguity and provide actionable guidance.


270-298: Build Verification Summary format is practical and well-designed.

The scannable format with ✅/❌/⚠️ indicators and the detailed examples (both success and failure cases) provide clear templates for reporting build results. This will help standardize communication about verification status.

databind/src/main/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/config/IBindingConfiguration.java (1)

70-80: Well-documented API addition.

The new getBindingConfigurationForDefinition method is properly documented with complete Javadoc including @param and @return tags, and correctly uses @Nullable/@NonNull annotations. This provides the necessary hook for retrieving per-definition binding configurations used by the type resolver.

databind-metaschema/pom-bootstrap.xml (1)

1-93: Well-structured bootstrap POM with clear documentation.

The standalone POM is properly documented with usage instructions and explains the two-step workflow (clean stale file, then generate). The property-based path configuration enables flexibility for the compare-before-commit workflow mentioned in the comments.

databind/src/main/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/config/binding/MetaschemaBindings.java (1)

5-6: Generated binding class - structure looks correct.

This file is auto-generated from metaschema-bindings.yaml as indicated by the header comment. The new ChoiceGroupBinding and ItemType nested classes correctly mirror the schema changes. Per project conventions, documentation improvements for generated classes should be handled through code generator enhancements.

databind/src/main/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/typeinfo/DefaultTypeResolver.java (2)

70-73: Method visibility change to implement interface contract.

The @Override annotation and public visibility correctly implement the ITypeResolver interface contract. Per project conventions, inherited Javadoc from the interface is sufficient.


184-193: Binding-aware item type resolution implemented correctly.

The logic properly chains null checks for config, choiceConfig, and itemTypeName before using ClassName.bestGuess() to resolve the configured item type. Falls back to Object.class when no binding configuration is present.

databind/src/main/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/config/IChoiceGroupBindingConfiguration.java (1)

1-61: Well-designed interface with complete documentation.

The interface is properly documented with class-level Javadoc explaining the purpose of choice group bindings. All three methods have appropriate documentation and nullability annotations. The design cleanly separates the configuration concerns.

databind/src/test/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/typeinfo/ChoiceGroupTypeInfoImplTest.java (1)

38-392: Comprehensive test coverage for choice group field type generation.

The tests thoroughly cover the key scenarios:

  • Wildcard vs non-wildcard item types
  • List vs Map collection types based on JsonGroupAsBehavior
  • Singleton vs collection based on maxOccurs
  • Fallback to List<Object> when no binding configuration exists

Test method names are descriptive, satisfying the guideline that @Test methods don't require Javadoc.

databind/src/main/metaschema/metaschema-bindings.yaml (1)

143-171: Schema addition is well-structured and consistent.

The new choice-group-binding assembly follows the established patterns in the metaschema bindings schema. Key observations:

  • Correctly nested under define-assembly-binding (only assemblies can have choice groups)
  • The use-wildcard flag with default: "true" aligns with the IChoiceGroupBindingConfiguration.isUseWildcard() contract
  • Structure is consistent with sibling assemblies like property-binding
databind/src/test/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/config/DefaultChoiceGroupBindingConfigurationTest.java (3)

37-52: LGTM!

The test class structure follows best practices: uses JUnit 5 with JMock for mocking, configures thread-safe mocking with Synchroniser (supporting parallel test execution), and properly organizes test resources in the standard Maven location.


54-58: LGTM!

The setup method properly initializes the binding configuration before each test, ensuring test isolation. The IOException propagation is handled appropriately by JUnit 5.


60-85: LGTM!

The helper method demonstrates good practices: comprehensive Javadoc, unique mock identifiers to prevent conflicts in parallel execution, and proper use of ObjectUtils.notNull() for null-safety assertions as per the codebase patterns.

databind-metaschema/src/main/metaschema-bindings/metaschema-model-bindings.xml (5)

1-7: LGTM!

The XML header and root element follow standard conventions with proper encoding declaration and a descriptive comment explaining the file's purpose and usage context.


8-12: LGTM!

The model binding configuration correctly follows the package naming convention (gov.nist.secauto.metaschema.*) and maps to the appropriate OSCAL metaschema namespace.


56-61: Field binding definition follows established pattern.

The field binding correctly uses extend-base-class for inheritance and documents the required ordering constraint relative to assembly bindings. The referenced AbstractAllowedValue class exists in the expected package and provides a valid base for this binding.


15-55: Assembly binding definitions are well-structured and correctly referenced.

All four interfaces (IModelConstraintsBase, IValueTargetedConstraintsBase, IConstraintBase, IValueConstraintsBase) and the GroupingAs class are properly defined in the codebase. The bindings use consistent fully qualified names and the ordering requirement is appropriately documented.


13-14: The relative path is correct and depends on proper repository initialization.

The href path correctly references the metaschema submodule that must be initialized by cloning with --recurse-submodules (as documented in the README.md). The path ../../../../core/metaschema/schema/metaschema/metaschema-module-metaschema.xml is the standard pattern for monorepo submodule references in this project. When the repository is properly cloned, the submodule will be initialized at core/metaschema/ and the href will resolve correctly. This is neither fragile nor problematic—it's the intended design for managing shared metaschema definitions.

56-122: TDD enforcement messaging aligns perfectly with learnings and provides clear enforcement gates.

The strengthening of TDD language to "MANDATORY - BLOCKING" matches the learnings about mandatory TDD principles. The "Iron Law" framing is unambiguous, and the Enforcement Gate provides a concrete three-point checklist before any implementation code can be written. Notably, you've correctly updated Red Flags to call out parallel agent violations (lines 92–93) while explicitly noting that test-writing agents themselves can run in parallel (line 96), which is consistent with the new Parallel Agents section below.

The Common Rationalizations table appropriately lists "Tests and impl in parallel for efficiency" as a violation, correctly reinforcing that tests and implementation cannot be parallelized together—only test agents with each other.


180-234: Parallel Agent section is comprehensive, with explicit correct/wrong ordering that eliminates ambiguity.

The new section clearly delineates when parallel agents are appropriate, provides concrete examples by scenario (writing multiple classes, updating interfaces, test coverage), and most importantly, the "TDD with Parallel Agents" subsection (lines 216–233) makes the correct order unambiguous: test agents run in parallel and complete, then implementation agents run in parallel. The "Wrong order" example explicitly calls out the violation of dispatching tests and implementation in the same batch.

This guidance is actionable and aligns with TDD enforcement upstream.


236-262: Phase 4 flow diagram and parallel code review agents provide clear iteration workflow.

Adding parallel code review agents with a flow diagram showing issue consolidation and re-review cycles clarifies the iterative refinement process. The loop structure is logical: run agents → consolidate → work issues → re-review → repeat as needed.


270-298: Build Verification Summary format provides scannable, actionable reporting guidance with clear examples.

The format guidance (✅ for passing, ❌ for failures, ⚠️ for warnings below target) gives reviewers a quick visual signal. The examples at lines 274–281 and 290–298 illustrate both success and failure scenarios, showing both errors/violations and warnings per tool. This clarity will reduce ambiguity in build verification reporting.

1304-1518: Generated ChoiceGroupBinding and ItemType classes follow established patterns.

The new ChoiceGroupBinding and nested ItemType classes are consistent with the existing binding patterns in this generated file. The structure correctly models the choice-group-binding configuration with name flag and optional item-type with use-wildcard attribute.

Note: The missing Javadoc on getValue()/setValue() methods (lines 1504-1511) was already flagged in a previous review. Per project learnings, documentation improvements for generated binding classes should be addressed at the code generator level (metaschema-maven-plugin) rather than through manual edits.

63-74: Javadoc addition looks good.

The Javadoc correctly documents the method's behavior including the collection type selection (List vs Map) and the wildcard usage when binding configuration specifies a custom item type.

🧹 Nitpick comments (5)
.claude/rules/development-workflow.md (3)

181-224: Strengthen guidance on agent dispatch granularity and dependency detection.

The parallel agent guidance is clear on when to dispatch in parallel (independent tasks) but doesn't provide concrete heuristics for identifying task independence. Lines 181-189 list scenarios, but developers may still be uncertain.

Consider adding:

  • Example of a false independence claim (e.g., "two classes that both depend on a shared interface")
  • A decision tree: "Is there a file import/dependency between tasks?"
  • Explicit instruction: "If unsure, dispatch sequentially instead"

Also, line 222 warns against "Tests and implementation agents in the same parallel batch," which is correct. Ensure this prohibition is visible at dispatch time (not just in retrospective review).


277-305: Build Verification Summary format is clear and scannable; verify consistency across CI tooling.

The format (lines 281–288 and 298–305) uses symbols consistently (✅/❌/⚠️) and includes both violations and warnings. This is a useful addition for transparency.

One clarification: the format shows example output, but doesn't specify where or how developers report this summary (e.g., PR description, CI logs, commit message). Recommend adding:

  • "Report this summary in: [PR description / CI build logs / comment]"
  • Link to CI output location

This ensures consistent reporting and prevents inconsistent formats.


308-323: Workflow diagram is updated for parallel agents; verify Phase labels and transitions are unambiguous.

The diagram (lines 308–323) now shows:

  • Phase 3: Development (with parallel test + impl agents)
  • Phase 4: Code review cycle (with parallel review agents)
  • Phase 5: Verification & PR

This is consistent with earlier sections. However, ensure developers understand:

  • Phase 3 includes the "parallel test agents → verify failures → parallel impl agents → verify passes" sub-workflow (from lines 207–224)
  • Phase 4 may include additional parallel review agents, as noted on line 228

Adding a brief annotation to the diagram (e.g., "Phase 3 uses TDD with Parallel Agents model") would clarify scope.

databind-metaschema/pom-bootstrap.xml (1)

1-93: Well-documented bootstrap POM for binding class regeneration.

The POM is properly structured with:

  • Clear usage instructions in the header comment
  • Explicit two-step workflow (clean stale file → generate sources)
  • Appropriate use of properties for path configuration
  • Correct packaging type (pom) to avoid inclusion in normal build

The property binding.package.dir (line 30) appears unused in the current configuration. If this is intentional for future comparison workflows, consider adding a comment; otherwise, it could be removed to reduce confusion.

databind/src/test/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/typeinfo/DefaultTypeResolverTest.java (1)

101-138: Consider adding test for isUseWildcard() behavior.

The current tests thoroughly cover getClassName() behavior, but since isUseWildcard() is part of IChoiceGroupBindingConfiguration, you might want to verify that getClassName() correctly ignores the wildcard setting (since wildcard only affects getJavaFieldType(), not the class name itself). This would document the intended separation of concerns.

🔎 Optional test addition
/**
 * Test that getClassName ignores useWildcard setting (wildcard only affects field type).
 */
@Test
void testGetClassNameIgnoresWildcardSetting() {
  IBindingConfiguration bindingConfig = context.mock(IBindingConfiguration.class);
  IDefinitionBindingConfiguration defConfig = context.mock(IDefinitionBindingConfiguration.class);
  IChoiceGroupBindingConfiguration choiceConfig = context.mock(IChoiceGroupBindingConfiguration.class);
  DefaultTypeResolver resolver = new DefaultTypeResolver(bindingConfig);

  String groupAsName = "test-choices";
  String itemTypeName = "com.example.ITestInterface";

  Map<String, IChoiceGroupBindingConfiguration> choiceGroupBindings = new HashMap<>();
  choiceGroupBindings.put(groupAsName, choiceConfig);

  context.checking(new Expectations() {
    {
      oneOf(choiceGroupInstance).getContainingDefinition();
      will(returnValue(assemblyDefinition));
      oneOf(bindingConfig).getBindingConfigurationForDefinition(assemblyDefinition);
      will(returnValue(defConfig));
      oneOf(choiceGroupInstance).getGroupAsName();
      will(returnValue(groupAsName));
      oneOf(defConfig).getChoiceGroupBindings();
      will(returnValue(choiceGroupBindings));
      allowing(choiceConfig).getItemTypeName();
      will(returnValue(itemTypeName));
      // Wildcard setting should not affect getClassName result
      allowing(choiceConfig).isUseWildcard();
      will(returnValue(false));
    }
  });

  ClassName result = resolver.getClassName(choiceGroupInstance);

  assertNotNull(result);
  assertEquals("com.example", result.packageName());
  assertEquals("ITestInterface", result.simpleName());

The "Enforcement Gate" defines a checklist with three required items before implementation, but it's unclear whether this is procedural guidance (developers verify themselves) or enforced by tooling. Clarify whether this gate is:

  • Manual: developers check themselves before proceeding
  • Audited: code review agents verify gate completion
  • Automated: tooling blocks implementation without tests

This affects how strictly the enforcement is interpreted.


207-224: TDD with Parallel Agents section is clear; verify no confusion with workflow phases.

The "Correct order" (lines 215–219) clearly sequences: parallel test agents → verify failures → parallel impl agents → verify passes. This aligns with the Iron Law (tests first) and the Enforcement Gate (lines 76–84).

However, ensure developers understand this applies within Phase 3 (development), not across phases. Recommend adding a cross-reference to Phase 3 (lines 165–180) to avoid confusion about when this workflow is active.


253-270: Handling Optional Nitpicks guidance is pragmatic and actionable.

The criteria for "address" vs "defer" (lines 257–269) provide clear guardrails and acknowledge real-world trade-offs (scope, risk). This prevents scope creep while respecting code quality. The guidance to "note the suggestion in a comment or issue for future consideration" ensures visibility without blocking the PR.

databind/src/main/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/config/IChoiceGroupBindingConfiguration.java (1)

1-61: Well-designed interface with complete documentation.

The interface is clean, follows project conventions, and provides comprehensive Javadoc explaining the purpose and behavior of each method. The use of @NonNull and @Nullable annotations correctly documents null-safety expectations.

databind-metaschema/src/main/metaschema-bindings/metaschema-model-bindings.xml (1)

1-63: Well-structured binding configuration file.

The binding configuration correctly defines:

  • Package mapping for the OSCAL metaschema namespace
  • Assembly bindings with appropriate interface implementations
  • Field binding with base class extension
  • Clear ordering comments for maintainability

The relative path reference to the metaschema module XML (line 14) is appropriate for the bootstrap regeneration workflow.

databind/src/test/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/config/DefaultChoiceGroupBindingConfigurationTest.java (1)

1-205: Comprehensive test coverage for choice group binding configuration.

The test class provides excellent coverage including:

  • Positive cases for all configuration properties
  • Negative cases (non-existent group, missing resource file, unconfigured assembly)
  • Proper use of JMock with JUnit 5 extension
  • Reusable helper method for mock setup

The test method names are descriptive and follow good naming conventions for test classes.

databind/src/main/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/typeinfo/DefaultTypeResolver.java (2)

184-194: Correct implementation of binding-driven item type override.

The logic correctly:

  1. Retrieves the parent assembly's binding configuration
  2. Looks up the specific choice group binding by name
  3. Returns the configured item type if present, otherwise defaults to Object.class

All null checks are properly handled, ensuring no NPE risks.


70-73: Method visibility widened to fulfill interface contract.

The getBindingConfiguration() method is now public with @Override, indicating it's part of the ITypeResolver interface. This enables binding configuration access from code that uses the interface type.

databind/src/main/metaschema/metaschema-bindings.yaml (1)

143-171: Well-structured schema addition for choice-group-binding.

The new choice-group-binding assembly follows the established pattern of property-binding with:

  • Required name flag matching the group-as name
  • Optional item-type field with nested use-wildcard flag defaulting to true

The schema correctly models the binding configuration surface that will drive typed collection generation.

databind/src/main/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/config/DefaultChoiceGroupBindingConfiguration.java (2)

46-61: Clean implementation with proper null handling.

The constructor correctly handles all cases:

  • groupAsName is assigned directly from binding.getName() (guaranteed non-null by schema's required: "yes")
  • itemTypeName is extracted only when itemType is present
  • useWildcard defaults to true when either itemType is null or useWildcard flag is null

The logic at line 56 (useWildcardFlag == null || useWildcardFlag) correctly implements "default to true" semantics.


13-30: Class-level Javadoc now provides comprehensive documentation.

The Javadoc clearly explains:

  • The class wraps the binding configuration object
  • Lists the three stored properties with their guarantees
  • Documents the default behavior for useWildcard

This addresses the prior review feedback.

databind/src/main/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/typeinfo/ChoiceGroupTypeInfoImpl.java (1)

75-110: Implementation is well-structured.

The method correctly handles the three main cases:

  1. Multi-valued with KEYED behavior → Map<String, ItemType>
  2. Multi-valued without KEYED → List<ItemType>
  3. Single-valued → direct item type

The wildcard application logic at line 94 correctly gates on both itemTypeName != null and isUseWildcard(), ensuring wildcards are only used when a specific configured type exists.

databind/src/test/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/typeinfo/DefaultTypeResolverTest.java (2)

38-46: Good test setup with JMock.

The Synchroniser threading policy is appropriate for JUnit 5's parallel test execution. The instance-level mock fields for assemblyDefinition and choiceGroupInstance are correctly initialized via the context.


52-213: Comprehensive test coverage for type resolution logic.

The tests effectively cover the key branching paths in DefaultTypeResolver.getClassName(IChoiceGroupInstance):

  • No binding configuration → Object
  • Binding exists but no choice group binding → Object
  • Choice group binding with item type → configured type
  • Choice group binding with null item type → Object
  • Nested class name parsing

The test for nested class types (lines 180-213) validates correct handling of OuterClass.InnerInterface patterns, which is a good edge case to cover.

1304-1518: LGTM on structure; Javadoc issue previously flagged.

The ChoiceGroupBinding and nested ItemType classes follow the established pattern for nested binding classes. The structure, annotations, and accessor methods are consistent with other binding classes in this file.

Note: The missing Javadoc on ItemType.getValue() and setValue() methods (lines 1504-1511) was already flagged in a previous review and should be addressed at the code generator level (metaschema-maven-plugin).

Based on learnings, this is a generated binding class.

🧹 Nitpick comments (4)
.claude/rules/development-workflow.md (4)

96-96: Move the parallel test-writing agents note outside Red Flags for clarity.

Line 96 appears in the Red Flags section but indicates what's allowed (parallel test-writing agents), not a red flag. This placement could mislead readers into thinking parallel test-writing is prohibited. Relocate this note to immediately after line 95 or integrate it into a separate "What's Allowed" subsection to avoid confusion with the Red Flags list.

🔎 Example restructuring
 ### Red Flags (You're Skipping TDD)
 
~If you catch yourself doing ANY of these, STOP IMMEDIATELY:
 - Writing implementation code before tests
 - "I'll add tests after I get it working"
 - "This is too simple to need tests"
 - "Let me just make this small change first"
~- Dispatching implementation agents before test agents complete
~- Dispatching tests and implementation in the same parallel batch
 - Modifying code without first verifying existing test coverage

-**Note:** Multiple test-writing agents CAN run in parallel with each other. See "TDD with Parallel Agents" section.

Consider adding a new subsection before Red Flags:

+### What's Allowed with TDD
+
+Multiple test-writing agents **CAN run in parallel** with each other (see "TDD with Parallel Agents" section below). Only implementation agents must wait for test completion.
+
 ### Red Flags (You're Skipping TDD)

227-231: Clarify how to verify tests fail "for the right reasons."

The requirement to "verify all new tests fail for the right reasons (not syntax errors or unrelated failures)" is subjective and difficult to standardize. Either expand with concrete guidance (e.g., "Review test output to confirm failure messages match expected conditions, not compilation errors") or simplify to "Run the full test suite and verify all new tests fail" and let test review during code review validate correctness.

🔎 Possible clarifications

Option 1 (More Prescriptive):

 2. Run the full test suite to verify all new tests fail for the correct reasons (not syntax errors or unrelated failures)
+   - Examine test output to confirm failure messages match your test assertions, not compilation/runtime errors
+   - Example: Expected message "NullPointerException" in logs, not "Symbol not found"

Option 2 (Simpler):

 2. Run the full test suite to verify all new tests fail
+   - Confirm failures are due to test logic (e.g., assertion failures), not compilation errors

289-317: Specify when, how, and who generates the Build Verification Summary.

The Build Verification Summary Format is well-structured, but the document doesn't clarify the execution context: Is this for local builds, CI pipelines, or PR comments? Should it be auto-generated by tools or manually compiled? Who is responsible (developer, CI, reviewer)? Adding a brief context section after line 289 will improve implementation clarity.

🔎 Example context addition
 #### Build Verification Summary Format
 
+**When:** After running a full build with quality checks (e.g., `mvn clean install -PCI -Prelease`).
+
+**Who:** Developer or CI pipeline. Manual compilation from tool output is acceptable; automation is preferred.
+
+**Where:** Add to PR description, GitHub PR comment, or conversation output before proceeding to phase merge.
+
 After running builds with quality checks, provide a scannable summary in the conversation output:

1-50: Consider adding scope note for human developer audience.

The document extensively references "superpowers" plugin, "Skill" tool, and Claude-specific agent workflows (e.g., "Skill" tool invocations at lines 8, 117, 144, etc.). While this aligns with prior guidance in CLAUDE.md, human developers reading this repository guideline might be confused about applicability. A brief introductory note clarifying that this document is primarily scoped for AI agent workflows would improve clarity without changing the content.

🔎 Example introduction addition
 # Development Workflow
 
+> **Scope:** This document describes development workflows for AI agents (Claude + superpowers plugin) and code review agents used in this project. Human developers should adapt these TDD, parallel-execution, and review principles to your tooling and IDE.

Learning: In the `DateAdapter` class (`core/src/main/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/core/datatype/adapter/DateAdapter.java`), using a regular expression for date validation is necessary because `DateTimeFormatter` does not properly parse dates with timezones in this context.

56-96: LGTM on TDD enforcement strengthening and parallel agent red flags.

The expanded TDD section with "The Iron Law," Enforcement Gate, and updated Red Flags correctly articulates the required discipline and distinguishes between allowed (parallel test-writing agents) and forbidden (parallel implementation agents) patterns. The strengthening from prior guidance is appropriate and clear.

databind/src/main/metaschema/metaschema-bindings.yaml (1)

143-171: LGTM!

The new choice-group-binding assembly definition follows established patterns and is well-structured. The default value for use-wildcard is correctly specified as a string "true" per YAML conventions, and the nested field structure with flags is consistent with other binding definitions in this metaschema.

databind/src/main/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/config/binding/MetaschemaBindings.java (3)

12-12: LGTM!

The new imports for BooleanAdapter, BoundFieldValue, and MetaschemaField are necessary to support the generated ItemType field with its boolean flag and field value bindings.

Note: Based on learnings, this is a generated binding class from metaschema-bindings.yaml, and any style improvements should be made at the code generator level (metaschema-maven-plugin).

Also applies to: 22-22, 26-26


680-689: LGTM!

The _choiceGroupBindings field declaration follows the established pattern for collection fields in this generated class, with proper annotations and configuration.


826-881: LGTM!

The collection management methods for ChoiceGroupBinding follow the established patterns in this generated class, with proper Javadoc coverage, lazy initialization, and null validation using ObjectUtils.requireNonNull.

databind/src/main/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/typeinfo/ITypeResolver.java (1)

44-50: LGTM!

The new getBindingConfiguration() method is properly documented with Javadoc including a @return tag, and the return type is correctly annotated with @NonNull per coding guidelines. This addition enables binding-driven type resolution throughout the codegen path.

databind/src/main/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/config/IDefinitionBindingConfiguration.java (2)

9-9: LGTM!

The Map import is necessary for the new getChoiceGroupBindings() method's return type.


41-51: LGTM!

The new getChoiceGroupBindings() method is properly documented with comprehensive Javadoc including a @return tag that clearly explains the map structure (keyed by group-as name). The return type is correctly annotated with @NonNull per coding guidelines.

databind/src/test/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/config/DefaultBindingConfigurationTest.java (2)

297-361: LGTM!

The testChoiceGroupBindingParsing test properly validates the parsing of choice group bindings from XML configuration. The test:

  • Correctly sets up mocks and expectations
  • Verifies the expected count of bindings (3)
  • Validates individual binding properties (group name, item type, wildcard usage)
  • Covers different scenarios (with/without item type, with/without wildcard)

The test follows TDD principles and uses descriptive method names per coding guidelines.


363-400: LGTM!

The testEmptyChoiceGroupBindings test properly validates the edge case where an assembly definition has no configured choice group bindings. The test correctly verifies that the map is non-null but empty, which is important for preventing null pointer exceptions in consuming code.

databind/src/main/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/typeinfo/ChoiceGroupTypeInfoImpl.java (2)

11-11: LGTM!

The new imports are all necessary to support the getJavaFieldType() method implementation:

  • ParameterizedTypeName and WildcardTypeName for generating collection types with bounded wildcards
  • JsonGroupAsBehavior for determining List vs Map collection types
  • IBindingConfiguration, IChoiceGroupBindingConfiguration, and IDefinitionBindingConfiguration for accessing binding-driven type customizations

Also applies to: 14-14, 21-21, 23-25


63-110: LGTM!

The getJavaFieldType() method is properly documented with comprehensive Javadoc that describes its behavior for collections, single items, and wildcard usage. The implementation correctly:

  • Determines collection type based on maxOccurs
  • Consults binding configuration to apply custom item types with wildcards
  • Selects Map<String, T> for KEYED groups, List<T> otherwise
  • Uses WildcardTypeName.subtypeOf() to generate bounded wildcard types when configured
  • Handles null checks for binding configuration before applying customizations

The past review comment noting missing Javadoc was addressed in commit c35d33d, and the current state meets coding guidelines.

databind/src/main/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/config/DefaultDefinitionBindingConfiguration.java (4)

8-9: LGTM!

The new imports are all necessary:

  • Collections for returning an unmodifiable view in getChoiceGroupBindings()
  • LinkedHashMap for the field initialization (maintains insertion order)
  • Map for the method return type

Also applies to: 12-12


24-25: LGTM!

The choiceGroupBindings field is properly initialized as a LinkedHashMap (maintaining insertion order) and annotated @NonNull, following the same pattern as the existing interfacesToImplement field.


45-45: LGTM!

The copy constructor properly propagates choice group bindings from the source configuration using putAll(), consistent with how other collections are copied in this constructor.


78-93: LGTM!

The new methods are properly implemented:

  • getChoiceGroupBindings() returns an unmodifiable view of the map (good defensive programming), and correctly inherits Javadoc from the interface per learnings
  • addChoiceGroupBinding() has complete Javadoc with @param tags for both parameters, and uses @NonNull annotations to enforce non-null constraints

Based on learnings, interface implementation methods can rely on inherited Javadoc.

Add binding configuration support for specifying item types on choice
groups, enabling the code generator to produce typed collections like
List<? extends IConstraintBase> instead of List<Object>.

Changes:
- Add choice-group-binding element to metaschema-bindings.yaml schema
- Create IChoiceGroupBindingConfiguration interface and implementation
- Update DefaultBindingConfiguration to parse choice-group-binding elements
- Update DefaultTypeResolver to use item-type from binding configuration
- Update ChoiceGroupTypeInfoImpl to generate wildcard bounded types
- Add bootstrap POM for databind-metaschema module regeneration
- Add comprehensive unit tests for new functionality

Also updates .claude/rules/development-workflow.md to:
- Strengthen TDD requirements with enforcement gates
- Add mandatory parallel agent usage section
- Clarify that test agents can run in parallel

63-110: LGTM!

The implementation correctly handles the wildcard type generation logic. The method properly:

  1. Checks binding configuration hierarchy (definition → choice group)
  2. Guards against null configurations at each level
  3. Only applies wildcard when all conditions are met (config exists, item type specified, wildcard enabled)
  4. Javadoc comprehensively documents the behavior, addressing the prior review feedback.
🧹 Nitpick comments (3)
.claude/rules/development-workflow.md (1)

1-347: Optional refactor: Consider splitting documentation as it grows.

The document is now ~348 lines and encompasses skill usage, TDD, PRD workflow, parallel agents, debugging, testing best practices, and phase lifecycle. While well-organized into sections, future expansion may warrant extraction of parallel-agent guidance or debugging workflows into separate linked documents. This is a long-term maintainability consideration, not blocking.

databind/src/main/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/config/DefaultDefinitionBindingConfiguration.java (1)

78-81: Missing @Override annotation on interface method implementation.

The getChoiceGroupBindings() method implements the interface contract but is missing the @Override annotation that is present on other interface methods in this class (e.g., getClassName(), getQualifiedBaseClassName()).

🔎 Proposed fix
+  @Override
   public Map<String, IChoiceGroupBindingConfiguration> getChoiceGroupBindings() {
     return Collections.unmodifiableMap(choiceGroupBindings);
   }
databind/src/test/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/typeinfo/DefaultTypeResolverTest.java (1)

45-46: Consider moving mock instance creation into individual test methods.

The mock fields assemblyDefinition and choiceGroupInstance are initialized once at class level but each test method creates additional mocks (e.g., IBindingConfiguration, IDefinitionBindingConfiguration). This inconsistency could be confusing. Consider either:

  1. Moving all mock creation into each test method for clarity, or
  2. Keeping shared mocks at class level only if they're truly reused without modification

This is a minor readability suggestion since the current approach works correctly with the Synchroniser.

1-3: Clear scope update for dual audience.

Line 3 now explicitly clarifies the guidance is for AI agents with human developers adapting principles to their tooling. This is a helpful disambiguation that improves accessibility.


58-125: Strong TDD enforcement with clear gates and red flags.

The new "The Iron Law of TDD" section (lines 62–68), Enforcement Gate (lines 78–85), and parallel-agent-specific red flags (lines 98–100) establish clear, non-negotiable checkpoints. The addition of "Common Rationalizations That Violate TDD" (lines 102–110) is particularly helpful for recognizing rationalization patterns. Messaging is consistent throughout: tests must be written and fail before implementation, and implementation agents must wait for test agents to complete.


185-242: Practical parallel agent guidance with dependency detection.

The new "Parallel Agent Usage" and "TDD with Parallel Agents" sections provide concrete decision-making support:

  • Scenario table (lines 195–200) shows when parallelization applies
  • Granularity guidance (lines 205–208) clarifies agent scoping ("finer-grained is better")
  • Dependency detection rules (lines 210–215) distinguish independent tasks from dependent ones
  • Correct/wrong ordering for TDD in parallel (lines 231–242) disambiguates test-writing vs implementation sequencing

The "Red flags" subsection (lines 217–221) gives developers explicit anti-patterns to watch for.


271-288: Nitpick handling guidance fits the code review context.

The new "Handling Optional Nitpicks" section aligns well with Phase 4 (Code Review Cycle) and provides practical criteria for deciding when to address vs defer optional feedback. The decision matrix (when to address vs defer) is actionable and reduces ambiguity.


332-347: Workflow summary now emphasizes parallel phases clearly.

The updated Workflow Summary reflects the new parallel-agent phases (Phase 3: test+implementation in parallel, Phase 4: parallel review agents). The visual flow is consistent with the detailed phase descriptions above.

databind/src/main/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/config/IChoiceGroupBindingConfiguration.java (1)

11-61: LGTM!

The interface is well-designed with complete Javadoc coverage, clear method contracts, and appropriate nullability annotations. The documentation effectively explains the purpose and behavior of each method.

databind/src/main/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/config/IBindingConfiguration.java (1)

71-80: LGTM!

The new method is well-documented with complete Javadoc including all required tags in the correct order (@param, @return). The nullability annotations are appropriate.

databind/src/main/metaschema/metaschema-bindings.yaml (1)

143-171: LGTM!

The choice-group-binding assembly definition is well-structured with complete metadata (formal-name, description) on all elements. The required constraint on the name flag and the default value for use-wildcard are correctly specified.

databind/src/main/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/typeinfo/ITypeResolver.java (1)

44-50: LGTM!

The new method is properly documented with complete Javadoc and appropriate @nonnull annotation.

databind/src/main/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/config/DefaultBindingConfiguration.java (2)

339-340: LGTM!

The call to processChoiceGroupBindings is logically placed after property bindings and correctly passes the necessary parameters.


462-487: LGTM!

The processChoiceGroupBindings method follows the same pattern as the existing property binding methods. It includes appropriate null checks, type verification, and complete Javadoc documentation.

databind/src/main/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/typeinfo/DefaultTypeResolver.java (2)

70-73: LGTM!

The visibility change from protected to public with @OverRide annotation correctly implements the interface method. Following the project's pattern, implementation-specific Javadoc is appropriately omitted since it inherits from the interface.


185-193: LGTM!

The enhanced logic correctly implements binding-driven type resolution for choice groups. The method appropriately checks for null at each level before accessing nested properties and maintains the fallback to Object.class when no binding configuration is found.

databind/src/test/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/typeinfo/ChoiceGroupTypeInfoImplTest.java (1)

1-392: LGTM!

The test class provides comprehensive coverage of ChoiceGroupTypeInfoImpl.getJavaFieldType behavior across multiple scenarios:

  • Wildcard and non-wildcard types
  • List and Map collections
  • Singleton vs. multi-item cases
  • With and without binding configuration

The tests follow JUnit 5 best practices, use descriptive method names (eliminating the need for method-level Javadoc per coding guidelines), and appropriately use mocks to isolate the behavior under test.

databind/src/main/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/config/DefaultChoiceGroupBindingConfiguration.java (3)

13-30: LGTM!

The class-level Javadoc effectively addresses the previous review feedback. It clearly describes the purpose, implementation details, and nullability guarantees for the stored configuration data.


38-61: LGTM!

The constructor correctly handles both the presence and absence of the optional item-type field. The default behavior for useWildcard (true) is consistently applied whether the field is absent or the flag is not explicitly set, which aligns with the schema definition.


63-78: LGTM!

The getter methods correctly implement the interface contract with appropriate nullability annotations. Following the project's pattern, they appropriately rely on inherited Javadoc from the interface.

databind-metaschema/pom-bootstrap.xml (1)

1-93: Well-structured bootstrap POM with clear documentation.

The standalone POM is properly isolated from the normal build (packaging=pom, not included in parent reactor) with comprehensive usage instructions in the XML comments. The two-step approach (clean stale marker → generate sources) ensures reliable regeneration.

databind/src/main/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/config/DefaultDefinitionBindingConfiguration.java (1)

24-25: Good use of LinkedHashMap for predictable iteration order.

Using LinkedHashMap ensures that choice group bindings maintain insertion order, which is beneficial for consistent code generation output.

databind-metaschema/src/main/metaschema-bindings/metaschema-model-bindings.xml (1)

1-63: Well-organized binding configuration.

The binding configuration properly establishes the package namespace and interface implementations for the metaschema model. The comments clearly document the ordering constraint for assembly vs field bindings, which aids maintainability.

databind/src/test/java/gov/nist/secauto/metaschema/databind/codegen/typeinfo/DefaultTypeResolverTest.java (1)

36-259: Comprehensive test coverage for choice group type resolution.

The test suite covers all key scenarios including edge cases (null configs, nested types, wildcard flag separation of concerns). The use of JMock5 with Synchroniser properly supports parallel test execution per JUnit 5 guidelines.
