contents This work investigates the vector-valued Allen-Cahn equation with potentials of high-dimensional double-wells under Robin boundary conditions. We establish local-in-time convergence of solutions to mean curvature flow with a fixed contact angle $0<α\leq 90^\circ$, for a broad class of boundary energy densities and well-prepared initial data. The limiting sharp-interface system is derived, comprising harmonic heat flows in the bulk and minimal pair conditions at phase boundaries. The analysis combines the relative entropy method with gradient flow calibrations and weak convergence techniques. These results extend prior works on the analysis of the vector-valued case without boundary effects (Comm. Pure Appl. Math., 78:1199-1247, 2025) and the scalar-valued case with boundary contact energy (Calc. Var. Partial Differ. Equ., 61:201, 2022).
