Approval gates

Some workflows pause for human or external approval before continuing.

Passive and active gates

• Passive states wait for a labeled transition without running a node.
• Programs can include states that require an approval label (e.g. done) before proceeding to a final state.

Exit code 2

When a run reaches an approval gate that cannot auto-approve, the CLI exits with code 2 (distinct from failure).

Auto-approve in automation

Tests and CI may supply auto labels programmatically. Design programs with explicit on: maps for approval labels you support.

Try it: Study definitively/test/fixtures/approval_state.yml in the source repo for a minimal approval example.
