<h2 id="phase-details"><a class="header" href="#phase-details">Phase Details</a></h2>
<h3 id="1-build-the-plan"><a class="header" href="#1-build-the-plan">1. Build the Plan</a></h3>
<p>Declare a topology, attach workloads and expectations, and set the run window. The plan is the single source of truth for what will happen.</p>
<p><strong>Key actions:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Define cluster shape (validators, executors, network topology)</li>
<li>Configure workloads (transaction rate, DA traffic, chaos patterns)</li>
<li>Attach expectations (liveness, inclusion, custom checks)</li>
<li>Set timing parameters (run duration, cooldown period)</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Output:</strong> Immutable <code>Scenario</code> plan</p>
<h3 id="2-deploy"><a class="header" href="#2-deploy">2. Deploy</a></h3>
<p>Hand the plan to a deployer. It provisions the environment on the chosen backend, waits for nodes to signal readiness, and returns a runner.</p>
<p><strong>Key actions:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Provision infrastructure (processes, containers, or pods)</li>
<li>Launch validator and executor nodes</li>
<li>Wait for readiness probes (HTTP endpoints respond)</li>
<li>Establish node connectivity and metrics endpoints</li>
<li>Spawn BlockFeed for real-time block observation</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Output:</strong> <code>Runner</code> + <code>RunContext</code> (with node clients, metrics, control handles)</p>
<h3 id="3-capture-baseline"><a class="header" href="#3-capture-baseline">3. Capture Baseline</a></h3>
<p>Expectations snapshot initial state before workloads begin.</p>
<p><strong>Key actions:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Record starting block height</li>
<li>Initialize counters and trackers</li>
<li>Subscribe to BlockFeed</li>
<li>Capture baseline metrics</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Output:</strong> Captured state for later comparison</p>
<h3 id="4-drive-workloads"><a class="header" href="#4-drive-workloads">4. Drive Workloads</a></h3>
<p>The runner starts traffic and behaviors for the planned duration.</p>
<p><strong>Key actions:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Submit transactions at configured rates</li>
<li>Disperse and sample DA blobs</li>
<li>Trigger chaos events (node restarts, network partitions)</li>
<li>Run concurrently for the specified duration</li>
<li>Observe blocks and metrics in real-time</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Duration:</strong> Controlled by <code>with_run_duration()</code></p>
<h3 id="5-evaluate-expectations"><a class="header" href="#5-evaluate-expectations">5. Evaluate Expectations</a></h3>
<p>Once activity stops (and optional cooldown completes), the runner checks liveness and workload-specific outcomes.</p>
<p><strong>Key actions:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Verify consensus liveness (minimum block production)</li>
<li>Check transaction inclusion rates</li>
<li>Validate DA dispersal and sampling</li>
<li>Assess system recovery after chaos events</li>
<li>Aggregate pass/fail results</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Output:</strong> Success or detailed failure report</p>
<h3 id="6-cleanup"><a class="header" href="#6-cleanup">6. Cleanup</a></h3>
<p>Tear down resources so successive runs start fresh and do not inherit leaked state.</p>
<p><strong>Key actions:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Stop all node processes/containers/pods</li>
<li>Remove temporary directories and volumes</li>
<li>Collect and archive logs (if <code>NOMOS_TESTS_KEEP_LOGS=1</code>)</li>
<li>Release ports and network resources</li>
<li>Cleanup observability stack (if spawned)</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Guarantee:</strong> Runs even on panic via <code>CleanupGuard</code></p>
