Adversarial review of the v1.2 Workflows track surfaced two HIGH footguns and
several correctness/hardening gaps. Fixes:
HIGH
- pull round-trip: `pic pull` dropped `[[workflows]]`, so a later
`apply --prune` silently deleted them. The list endpoint now returns the full
`definition`; pull rebuilds the manifest block (inverse of workflow_to_wire).
- case-colliding names: two workflows differing only by case collided in the
reconcile diff (keyed by lower(name)), silently dropping one. Rejected up
front in validate_bundle_for.
MEDIUM
- reclaim retry budget: a crashed attempt (no outcome) consumed the retry
budget. reclaim_stale_steps now decrements `attempt` (floored) and clears
`next_attempt_at`, so a crash no longer counts as a failed try.
- on_error/backoff: typed the manifest fields against the shared enums so a
bad value fails at TOML parse with a clear message, not an opaque 500.
- dedupe depends_on: a repeated dependency inflated the Kahn in-degree past the
single decrement, reporting a spurious cycle for a valid DAG. Count distinct.
- canceled child: a canceled sub-workflow resolved the parent step with a
message naming the cause instead of a generic "failed"; documented that a
run-level cancel op is not yet supported.
LOW
- list_run_steps is now app-scoped at the query (JOIN workflow_runs) rather
than relying on caller pre-verification.
- partial failure is surfaced: a run that succeeds with on_error=continue
failures records them in the run's `error` field.
- admin-started runs log the root_execution_id against the principal.
- documented the deliberate when(missing→false) vs template(missing→fail)
asymmetry; corrected the claim's atomicity comment.
Tests: unit (dedupe-deps), DB-gated reclaim-budget assertion, and two new CLI
journeys (duplicate-name rejection, pull→plan clean round-trip). fmt + clippy
-D warnings clean; 450 lib + 14 orchestrator DB + 5 workflow journeys pass;
schema snapshot unchanged (no migration).

A per-app "Workflows" tab: list definitions, browse run history, and inspect a
run's per-step progress with a static layered DAG.
- API: the run-detail endpoint now returns each step's `depends_on` (loaded
from the definition via a new `get_workflow_by_id` reader) so the dashboard
can draw the graph edges — the run's step rows don't carry them.
- dashboard `$lib/api`: a `workflows` namespace (list / runs / start / run) +
the matching types.
- `apps/[slug]/workflows/+page.svelte`: workflow table → drill into runs →
drill into a run. The run view renders a step table plus an SVG DAG (nodes =
steps colored by status, laid out by longest-path level; edges = depends_on,
arrowed) and a "Start run" button. Nested/parked steps show their child run.
- AppTabBar + the per-app layout gain the Workflows tab (admin-only).
Tests: `npm run check` clean (0 errors); two Playwright smoke tests
(navigation tabs — workflows loads cleanly + renders its empty state) pass
against the full stack.
With M6 the v1.2 Workflows track (M1 schema/validation → M2 durable
orchestrator → M3 when/templating → M4 nested → M5 SDK/API/CLI → M6 dashboard)
is COMPLETE.

The user-facing surface for the durable DAG engine. A workflow run can now be
started three ways, all resolving the workflow by name in the caller's app
(`cx.app_id` / the resolved app — never a passed-in arg, the isolation
boundary), seeding a run the orchestrator advances.
SDK seam (shared):
- `WorkflowService` trait + `NoopWorkflowService` + `WorkflowError` in
`shared::workflow` (mirrors `InvokeService`); added to `Services` as a
noop-defaulted `with_workflow` builder (all `Services::new` call sites
unchanged).
- `WorkflowServiceImpl` (manager-core): resolves + seeds a run; authenticated
callers gated on `AppInvoke` (anonymous skips, script-as-gate), the same gate
`invoke()` uses.
- `executor-core::sdk::workflow` — the Rhai bridge `workflow::start(name, input)`
/ `workflow::start(name)`, registered in `register_all`. Returns the run id.
Admin API (manager-core `workflows_api`, mounted in the binary):
- `GET /apps/{app}/workflows` — definitions (AppRead)
- `POST /apps/{app}/workflows/{name}/runs` — start a run (AppInvoke)
- `GET /apps/{app}/workflows/{name}/runs` — run history (AppRead)
- `GET /apps/{app}/workflow-runs/{run_id}` — one run + its steps (AppRead)
`app_id` scopes every query; a foreign run 404s.
CLI (`pic workflows`): `ls` · `run <name> [--input JSON]` · `runs <name>` ·
`run-status <run_id>` — all `--app`-scoped; run definitions stay declarative
(`[[workflows]]` → `pic apply`).
Also: `list_runs_for_workflow` repo reader.
Tests: `workflow_service_start_seeds_a_run` (DB-gated — the SDK/API-shared
entry) + `workflow_run_executes_end_to_end` CLI journey (apply → `pic workflows
run` → poll `run-status` → succeeded, through the real binary + orchestrator).
fmt + clippy -D warnings clean, 449 manager-core lib tests, 14 orchestrator DB
tests, 18 executor-core lib tests, 3 workflow CLI journeys green.
