Mnemosyne: Agentic Transaction Processing for Validating and Repairing AI-generated Workflows

arXiv:2607. 00269v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: LLMs, solvers, and agent teams increasingly generate workflow actions, repairs, and plans, but a generated action may be syntactically valid yet stale, infeasible, conflicting, or destructive of the evidence that triggered a repair. We introduce Agentic Transaction Processing (ATP), a transaction model that treats generated actions as untrusted proposals until they pass deterministic admission under a declared, executable constraint set C.

The principle is two-sided: a proposal is not truth, and no proposal foresees every disruption: anything may propose, but only the runtime admits and commits, and when an unforeseen disruption strikes it repairs reactively within bounds rather than trusting a fresh proposal. Relative to C, committed-state correctness becomes independent of the competence, honesty, or learning of the proposing layer.

We realize ATP in Mnemosyne, a runtime with an append-only transition log, effective-state projection, dependency-safe compensation, and active commitment records, and prove four safety properties relative to C (authority separation, serial-equivalent generative admission, evidence-preserving repair, and obligation containment) together with a bounded-reactive-repair guarantee for its localized repair protocol (LCRP).

A reproducible artifact rejects the targeted violations across nine falsification tests while still admitting valid work, at under 6% projection-and-validation overhead, and bounded local repair edits an order of magnitude fewer operations than global recompute.
