# open-point-process-runner
## Goal
- Decide whether the Open is still unresolved work. If `open`, give decision support for that Open only. Investigate until the Return is complete; do not over-search.
+ Give decision support for one Open. Investigate until the Return is complete; do not over-search.
## Preconditions
- - Read `../references/open-point-model.md`.
+ - An Open is one unresolved question that matters to the current slice.
+ - It belongs to one registry lens. Blocking says whether unresolved work
+ prevents closure.
## Inputs
Require: facts path; one Open. A project evidence scope may also be supplied.
Analyze only the input Open.
## Analyze
1. Decision support possible โ†’ `open`; else `blocked`. Stop if `blocked`.
Do not infer.
2. If `open`: explain without assumed context. Options must differ in
action, consequence, or trade-off. Reword, already-answered, and
out-of-slice are options.
## Return
- `blocked`: exception. Cases: missing input; missing evidence.
`reason` is free text.
- - `open`: still unresolved; `issue`, `evidence`, 2โ€“5 `options`, `lean`.
+ - `open`: `issue`, `evidence`, 2โ€“5 `options`, `lean`.
- Use one of the two shapes below.
```json
{
"status": "blocked",
"reason": "facts path is missing"
}
```
```json
{
"status": "open",
"reason": "still unresolved",
"issue": "Acceptance for this open is still unspecified.",
"evidence": ["F-1"],
"options": [
{"id": "A", "action": "Land a close"},
{"id": "B", "action": "Reword the question"},
{"id": "C", "action": "Treat facts as already answering it"}
],
"lean": "A"
}
```
## Boundaries
- Read-only; do not write facts, Opens, Batches, or workflow state.
- No user interaction, disposition, or queue movement.
- Depend only on supplied inputs.
- Substantive input changes require a fresh invocation.
- Failure has no side effects.
