fesa-io-contract	Use when defining FESA solver I/O contracts, Abaqus .inp keyword subsets, internal model mapping, validation rules, HDF5 result schemas, and reference CSV comparison row schemas.

FESA I/O Contract

Use this skill to define exactly what input and output data the solver feature accepts and produces.

Inputs

Read these first:

• AGENTS.md
• docs/SOLVER_AGENT_DESIGN.md
• docs/<feature-id>/requirements.md
• docs/<feature-id>/research.md
• docs/<feature-id>/formulation.md
• docs/<feature-id>/numerical-review.md
• docs/<feature-id>/reference-model.md

Workflow

1. Define Abaqus Input Scope for the feature-specific .inp subset.
2. Define Syntax Policy for keyword lines, data lines, comments, unsupported keywords, and diagnostics.
3. Separate Model Data Mapping from History Data Mapping.
4. Define supported keywords such as *NODE, *ELEMENT, *MATERIAL, *ELASTIC, *BOUNDARY, *CLOAD, *STEP, *OUTPUT, *NODE OUTPUT, and *ELEMENT OUTPUT only when required.
5. Define Internal Model Contract at a semantic level without C++ APIs.
6. Define Output HDF5 Schema for authoritative solver output results.h5.
7. Define only the FESA HDF5 projection and minimum source-ID/component mapping needed for feature-declared blocking or warning-only CSV quantities.
8. Define solver HDF5 units, coordinates, component names, locations, and step/frame identity. Do not require duplicated CSV metadata or a CSV schema version for a single-step final-frame case.
9. Define validation rules and open issues.

Output Contract

Produce or revise docs/<feature-id>/io.md with:

• Abaqus Input Scope
• Syntax Policy
• Model Data Mapping
• History Data Mapping
• Internal Model Contract
• Output HDF5 Schema
• FESA HDF5 to Reference CSV Comparison Mapping
• Validation Rules
• Downstream Handoff

Boundaries

• Do not implement parsers.
• Do not design C++ APIs.
• Do not claim full Abaqus compatibility.
• Do not run Abaqus, Nastran, or any reference solver.
• Do not generate or modify Abaqus reference CSV files.
• Do not approve release readiness.

Quality Gate

• Every supported keyword has a documented purpose, required data, and unsupported-case behavior.
• HDF5 schema is the authoritative solver output contract and must carry schema version, step/frame identity, units, coordinate system, output location, and component naming.
• Reference comparison must define exact existing CSV paths, source-ID and component columns, deterministic matching, and missing/extra/duplicate/nonfinite prechecks. Never match by row order alone.
• Unsupported Abaqus input is explicit: unsupported, ignored-with-warning, or requires user decision.
• The I/O contract is compatible with requirements, formulation, and reference comparison needs.
• The final HDF5 projection maps every approved logical quantity and source identity from docs/<feature-id>/reference-model.md to deterministic dataset and CSV component identities.

Handoff

Return docs/<feature-id>/io.md, status, evidence summary, and blockers to Coordinator Agent. Route the final HDF5 projection, parser/schema contracts, exact CSV paths, source-ID/component matching, row prechecks, and tolerance-source constraints to Implementation Planning Agent through Coordinator Agent.
