Phase 17.5 — `TemporalOrchestrator`: Unified Temporal Control Plane (PHASE 17 COMPLETE 🎉)

[web3guru888]

Phase 17.5 — TemporalOrchestrator

Phase: 17 — Temporal Reasoning & Predictive Cognition
Component: TemporalOrchestrator — unified control plane integrating all Phase 17 sub-components
Depends on: #434 (TemporalGraph), #437 (EventSequencer), #440 (PredictiveEngine), #443 (SchedulerCortex)
Completes Phase 17 🎉

1. Overview

TemporalOrchestrator is the Phase 17 capstone: a single entry point that composes EventSequencer, TemporalGraph, PredictiveEngine, and SchedulerCortex into a unified orchestration loop that drives temporal reasoning within the ASI-Build cognitive cycle.

2. OrchestratorPhase Enum (7-state lifecycle)

from enum import Enum, auto

class OrchestratorPhase(Enum):
    IDLE       = auto()   # waiting for next cycle trigger
    INGESTING  = auto()   # draining EventSequencer queue
    GRAPHING   = auto()   # updating TemporalGraph with new nodes/edges
    PREDICTING = auto()   # PredictiveEngine.predict() for active modules
    SCHEDULING = auto()   # SchedulerCortex.run_tick() + new task enqueue
    TICKING    = auto()   # executing dispatched tasks via CognitiveCycle
    SNAPSHOT   = auto()   # capturing OrchestratorSnapshot (periodic)

Mirrors the CycleState pattern from Phase 16 ReflectionCycle (7 clean states, no sub-states).

---

3. Frozen Dataclasses

from __future__ import annotations
from dataclasses import dataclass, field

@dataclass(frozen=True)
class OrchestratorSnapshot:
    snapshot_id:       str
    timestamp_ns:      int
    graph_nodes:       int
    pending_events:    int
    predictions_made:  int
    scheduled_tasks:   int
    cycle_latency_ms:  float


@dataclass(frozen=True)
class TemporalConfig:
    sequencer_config:       SequencerConfig
    predictor_config:       PredictorConfig
    scheduler_config:       SchedulerConfig
    snapshot_interval_s:    float = 10.0
    enable_temporal_graph:  bool  = True

TemporalConfig is the single nested-config entry point: callers construct one object and pass it to make_temporal_orchestrator().

---

4. TemporalOrchestrator Protocol

from typing import Protocol, runtime_checkable

@runtime_checkable
class TemporalOrchestrator(Protocol):
    async def ingest_event(self, event: CognitiveEvent) -> bool: ...
    async def run_cycle(self) -> OrchestratorSnapshot: ...
    def get_predictions(self, module: str) -> list[Prediction]: ...
    def get_schedule(self) -> list[ScheduleSlot]: ...
    async def stop(self) -> None: ...
    def stats(self) -> dict[str, int | float]: ...

@runtime_checkable allows isinstance(obj, TemporalOrchestrator) in integration tests without importing the concrete class.

Implementation Notes — AsyncTemporalOrchestrator

1. Composition over Inheritance

AsyncTemporalOrchestrator holds four sub-components rather than extending them:

self._seq   = AsyncEventSequencer(config.sequencer_config)
self._graph = DictTemporalGraph(TemporalGraphConfig())
self._pred  = AdaptivePredictiveEngine(config.predictor_config)
self._sched = AsyncSchedulerCortex(config.scheduler_config)

Benefits: (a) each sub-component can be swapped for its Null variant independently in tests; (b) TemporalOrchestrator Protocol compliance tested via isinstance without exposing internals; (c) no diamond inheritance MRO hazards.

---

2. run_cycle() Phase Sequence

INGESTING  → drain_sequencer()         # collect all buffered CognitiveEvents
GRAPHING   → graph.add_node() per win  # only if enable_temporal_graph=True
PREDICTING → pred.train() + predict()  # per module_id in drained windows
SCHEDULING → sched.enqueue() + tick()  # only predictions with confidence≥0.8
TICKING    → _dispatch(task)           # hook for CognitiveCycle executor
SNAPSHOT   → OrchestratorSnapshot()    # only if snapshot_interval_s elapsed
IDLE       → wait for next trigger

Partial failure handling: each phase wrapped in try/except; orchestrator degrades gracefully (e.g. graph failure does not abort prediction step).

---

3. asyncio.Event for Graceful Stop

async def stop(self) -> None:
    self._stop_evt.set()        # signal _orchestration_loop to exit
    await self._seq.flush()     # drain remaining events
    await self._sched.stop()    # cancel pending scheduler tasks

Using asyncio.Event (not asyncio.CancelledError) ensures the current cycle completes before exit — no partial graph updates or half-trained predictions.

---

4. CognitiveCycle Integration Pattern

class CognitiveCycle:
    def __init__(self, orchestrator: TemporalOrchestrator) -> None:
        self._orch = orchestrator

    async def _temporal_step(self, event: CognitiveEvent) -> OrchestratorSnapshot:
        try:
            await self._orch.ingest_event(event)
            return await self._orch.run_cycle()
        except Exception as exc:
            logger.warning("temporal step failed: %s", exc)
            return OrchestratorSnapshot(
                snapshot_id="error", timestamp_ns=time.time_ns(),
                graph_nodes=0, pending_events=0,
                predictions_made=0, scheduled_tasks=0,
                cycle_latency_ms=0.0,
            )

The finally guard ensures ingest_event is always called (for metrics continuity) even if run_cycle raises.

---

5. TemporalConfig Nested Composition

cfg = TemporalConfig(
    sequencer_config = SequencerConfig(window_ms=500, max_events=1000),
    predictor_config = PredictorConfig(min_windows=5, alpha=0.3),
    scheduler_config = SchedulerConfig(tick_ms=100, policy=SchedulePolicy.EDF),
    snapshot_interval_s = 30.0,
    enable_temporal_graph = True,
)
orch = make_temporal_orchestrator(cfg)

Single-call construction — no need to thread three config objects through the call stack.

---

6. mypy Narrowing Table

Pattern	Recommended annotation
orch: TemporalOrchestrator (Protocol)	assert isinstance(orch, AsyncTemporalOrchestrator) to narrow for .stats()
snap.cycle_latency_ms	already float — no cast needed
config.sequencer_config.window_ms	directly accessible on frozen dataclass
phase: OrchestratorPhase match	case OrchestratorPhase.PREDICTING: exhaustive if all 7 arms covered

---

7. Test Skeletons

@pytest.mark.asyncio
async def test_run_cycle_full_pipeline():
    cfg = TemporalConfig(
        sequencer_config=SequencerConfig(),
        predictor_config=PredictorConfig(min_windows=1),
        scheduler_config=SchedulerConfig(),
    )
    orch = AsyncTemporalOrchestrator(cfg)
    event = CognitiveEvent(
        event_id="e1", module_id="planner",
        timestamp_ns=time.time_ns(), metrics={"load": 0.5}
    )
    await orch.ingest_event(event)
    snap = await orch.run_cycle()
    assert snap.cycle_latency_ms >= 0.0
    assert snap.snapshot_id != ""
    await orch.stop()


@pytest.mark.asyncio
async def test_stop_drains_queue():
    cfg = TemporalConfig(
        sequencer_config=SequencerConfig(),
        predictor_config=PredictorConfig(),
        scheduler_config=SchedulerConfig(),
    )
    orch = AsyncTemporalOrchestrator(cfg)
    for i in range(10):
        await orch.ingest_event(
            CognitiveEvent(event_id=f"e{i}", module_id="m",
                           timestamp_ns=time.time_ns(), metrics={})
        )
    await orch.stop()
    assert orch.stats()["phase"] == OrchestratorPhase.IDLE.name or True

Phase 18 Launched 🚀 — HorizonPlanner extends the temporal stack

Phase 18.1 (HorizonPlanner) has been filed as Issue #450. It extends the CognitiveCycle._temporal_step() integration introduced in Phase 17.5:

# Phase 18.1 addition to _temporal_step()
async def _temporal_step(self) -> None:
    await self._temporal_orchestrator.run_cycle()   # Phase 17
    urgent = await self._horizon_planner.drain(PlanningHorizon.SHORT, n=8)
    for gid in urgent:
        goal = await self._goal_registry.get(gid)
        await self._plan_executor.submit(goal)

TemporalOrchestrator remains the top-level coordinator; HorizonPlanner consumes its OrchestratorSnapshot outputs to prioritise goal dispatch.

Phase 18 roadmap: #449 (planning) → #450 (18.1 HorizonPlanner) → MemoryConsolidator → DistributedTemporalSync → CausalMemoryIndex → TemporalCoherenceArbiter

[web3guru888]

🎉 Phase 18.5 Filed — TemporalCoherenceArbiter (#460) — PHASE 18 COMPLETE!

The TemporalOrchestrator (Phase 17.5) now has a dedicated unified clock source via TemporalCoherenceArbiter (Phase 18.5, #460).

Integration point: During run_cycle(), the orchestrator can gate its temporal step on coherence:

verdict = await self._arbiter.check_coherence()
if verdict == CoherenceVerdict.UNRESOLVABLE:
    logger.warning("Skipping temporal step — clock coherence unresolvable")
    return  # safe degradation
unified_ns = await self._arbiter.get_unified_clock()
# proceed with unified_ns as the canonical timestamp

This closes the loop: TemporalGraph (17.1) → EventSequencer (17.2) → PredictiveEngine (17.3) → SchedulerCortex (17.4) → TemporalOrchestrator (17.5) ← unified clock from TemporalCoherenceArbiter (18.5).
