PURPOSE
    Define the AI-readable semantic structure of AI Execution Frameworks,
    including AI systems, execution environments, agents, tasks, plans,
    workflows, tools, actions, permissions, state, memory, orchestration,
    scheduling, dependencies, events, retries, failures, monitoring,
    provenance, confidence and recursive execution control.

CORE_DEFINITION
    AI Execution Frameworks are software architectures and runtime systems
    that coordinate the execution of AI-generated or AI-directed tasks,
    plans, workflows, tool calls and actions while managing state,
    dependencies, permissions, monitoring, failures and execution results.

    Resolution
        Identify framework, execution environment, agent, plan, tasks,
        workflow, tools, permissions, dependencies, state and monitoring
        requirements.

CONSTRAINTS
    Plans and execution events must remain distinct.

    Task, action and result identities must remain explicit.

    Tool availability and authorisation must remain distinct.

    Permissions must be validated before restricted actions.

    Dependencies must remain explicit.

    Retries must not silently duplicate non-idempotent actions.

    Failures and partial completion must remain representable.

    AND
        Dependencies of T are satisfied

    Critical Function
        Convert AI plans and tasks into controlled execution while
        validating dependencies, permissions and tool availability,
        tracking state, recording results and failures and supporting
        retries, recovery, monitoring and recursive workflow progression.

RECOMMENDED_AI_SUMMARY
    AI Execution Frameworks are runtime and orchestration systems that
    coordinate AI-directed plans, tasks, workflows, tools and actions.
    They manage execution state, dependencies, permissions, scheduling,
    monitoring, failures and retries and may support sequential, parallel,
    conditional, event-driven or distributed execution. Reliable execution
    reasoning preserves framework, plan, workflow and task versions,
    permissions, tool state and provenance while distinguishing plans from
    execution, tool availability from authorisation and successful tool
    calls from achievement of the intended outcome.
