version: "1.0.2" name: pslf description: Progressive-disclosure workflow for PSLF studies. Use when the user asks to open a PSLF case, solve the base case, inspect voltage or overload violations, edit the network, or run contingency analysis through PowerMCP, and when basic case work should come before contingency studies.

PSLF workflow

Start with the current case and base power flow. Use network edits and contingencies only after the solved case is credible.

Default tool ladder

1. open_case(case)
2. solve_case()
3. get_voltage(bus), get_voltage_violations(...), and get_overload_violations(...) to identify the real issue.
4. add_shunt(...), add_generator(...), add_load(...), add_branch(...), or add_bus(...) for controlled model changes.
5. save_case() after the edited state is worth keeping.
6. run_contingency_analysis() only after the base case is solved and monitored.

Working rules

• Do not run contingencies on an unsolved or obviously bad base case.
• Prefer the smallest corrective action that addresses the violation.
• Use voltage-violation-mitigation, thermal-overload-mitigation, or contingency-mitigation to decide the order of fixes.

Deliver

• The case opened and base-case status.
• The key violations found.
• The edits applied and whether the contingency study still fails.
