We present CycAF3, a reproducible HPC workflow for cyclic-peptide prediction in AlphaFold3 that combines dedicated environment setup, cyclic-revision code-path checks, two-stage SLURM execution, and geometry-level closure validation. Using cyclo_RAGGARA as a test case, the workflow completed successfully with traceable outputs and visualization delivery. We show that cyclic metadata alone is insufficient and that terminal C–N geometric checks are required for reliable cyclic claims.
