A valid empty array emits paired parallel events with count zero and jumps directly to the template target's fan-in. +A dry run reaches the fan-out before any upstream node has produced the array, +so an absent or unusable source stands in one placeholder item and the template +target is simulated once. Graph-shape mistakes — a non-string source, the wrong +edge count, a non-LLM target, nested `for_each` — still fail under `--dry-run`, +because catching those is what a dry run is for. + ## 4.
