Null Directive Protocol Consistency
In a four-module modular harness protocol , harnesses that lack an explicit planning mechanism maintain type consistency through a canonical null directive . The planning module is instantiated as a null planner P_emptyset, which unconditionally emits d_emptyset at every time step . This ensures that downstream capability orchestration () and action () modules retain identical functional signatures and interface semantics across both purely reactive architectures (such as ReAct) and complex planned workflows without requiring branching protocol logic.
