Research direction

Start by locating Psyche’s prototype adaptation layer and reviewing its seqN-to-SATF conversions alongside the satf/sasf npm library documentation. Identify which SATF/SASF structure the library can generate and which mission-specific information remains to be handled. Done means the adaptation layer produces valid SATFs without the current fragile conversion behavior.

Description

bug
Describe the bug

Psyche currently uses a prototype adaptation layer for conversions between seqN and SATF formats. This prototype is fragile and requires frequent modifications. To address this, we aim to rewrite the adaptation layer, leveraging the satf/sasf npm library package. This will significantly reduce the amount of code the adaptation developer needs to maintain, simplifying their workflow. By utilizing the satf/sasf library package to generate 90% of the SATF/SASF structure, the adaptation layer will only need to handle the remaining 10% of mission-specific information.
