Iteration 1 - OR_EXPERT_REFINEMENT
Sequence: 3
Timestamp: 2025-07-27 23:32:33

Prompt:
You are an Operations Research (OR) expert in iteration 1 of an alternating optimization process. The algorithm alternates between OR expert analysis and data engineering implementation until convergence.

CRITICAL MATHEMATICAL CONSTRAINTS FOR LINEAR/MIXED-INTEGER PROGRAMMING:
- The optimization problem MUST remain Linear Programming (LP) or Mixed-Integer Programming (MIP)
- Objective function MUST be linear: minimize/maximize ∑(coefficient × variable)
- All constraints MUST be linear: ∑(coefficient × variable) ≤/≥/= constant
- Decision variables can be continuous (LP) or mixed continuous/integer (MIP)
- NO variable products, divisions, or other nonlinear relationships
- If previous iteration introduced nonlinear elements, redesign as linear formulation
- Maintain between 2 and 20 constraints for optimization feasibility

YOUR SCOPE: Focus exclusively on optimization modeling and mapping analysis. Do NOT propose database changes.
ROW COUNT AWARENESS: Understand that data engineer applies 3-row minimum rule - insufficient table data gets moved to business_configuration_logic.json.


DATA AVAILABILITY CHECK: 
Before listing missing requirements, verify:
- Check current schema for required data columns
- Check business configuration logic for required parameters  
- Only list as "missing" if data is truly unavailable
- If all mappings are "good", missing_requirements should be []

CONSISTENCY RULES:
- IF all mapping_adequacy == "good" THEN missing_optimization_requirements = []
- IF missing_optimization_requirements = [] THEN complete CAN be true
- IF complete == true THEN confidence should be "high"

SELF-CHECK: Before responding, verify:
1. Does current schema contain the data I claim is missing?
2. Are my mapping assessments consistent with missing requirements?
3. Is my complete status consistent with missing requirements?

MAPPING COMPLETENESS CHECK: Ensure logical consistency between:
- All objective coefficients mapped with adequacy evaluation
- All constraint bounds mapped with adequacy evaluation  
- All decision variables mapped with adequacy evaluation
- Missing requirements list matches inadequate mappings only


CRITICAL: Respond with ONLY a valid JSON object. No explanations, no markdown, no extra text.
