Hi,
A very short review of this draft: I like what it's trying to do, and it is a
good companion for draft-dang-anima-network-service-auto-deployment. My
impression is that the GRASP objective definitions are OK, but I haven't
verified that they are valid CDDL.
Why bother with section 4.3.2? The GRASP negotiation process is completely
defined in RFC 8990, and can be programmed quite simply if the GRASP API
[RFC8991] is available. The danger in this section is that it might be
different in some way from RFC 8990.
One specific question about section 4.4:
If the current path negotiation fails, the Service Initiator ASA MUST release all temporarily reserved resources and attempt the next candidate path.
Did you consider using the GRASP dry-run feature for this?

Title: The Autonomic Deployment Mechanism of Service Intent in Autonomic
Networks

Abstract:
This document defines a generic service intent deployment mechanism.
It enables automated negotiation and coordination of heterogeneous
resources. The mechanism uses RM ASAs and the Generic Autonomic
Signaling Protocol (GRASP) for dynamic interactions and resource
exchanges. It specifies a complete workflow covering intent
reception, parsing, responder selection, negotiation, solution
integration, resource confirmation, and dynamic adjustment. It
employs standardized message formats, a negotiation state machine,
and convergence logic to jointly optimize multiple resources and
ensure end-to-end service level objectives. Its design features good
scalability and fault tolerance, making it suitable for automated
orchestration and lifecycle management in intent-driven networks.
