session-state

To enforce deterministic state machine transitions in a bash workflow, apply a centralized script that validates target states and events before updating state files. This ensures strict orchestration across phase boundaries and logs all transitions for auditability.

Handling session state restoration on resume requires initializing from saved state files and event logs. The restoration process preserves continuity by validating the current state and gracefully re-entering the workflow at the correct phase boundary.

To escalate errors during workflow orchestration without losing context, trigger an escalation event that captures the current state and event data. The system gracefully escalates invalid transitions by logging the context for audit before halting or recovering.

Yes, triggering a valid workflow state transition requires passing a target_state and an event_name as inputs. You can also include optional event_data, which the system strictly validates against the defined state machine before applying the update.

An automated workflow fails on invalid session state transitions because the state machine strictly validates requested changes against allowed rules. Invalid transitions trigger an error escalation that captures context for audit rather than applying the update.
