Processes

Processes is the multi-step authoring and operating workspace at /processes. Route access requires workflow:read unless a full-access role applies.

What it owns

• Ordered stages, branches, handlers, typed inputs and outputs, checkpoints, and sign-off.
• Draft, review, approval, and publication of versioned Process definitions.
• Required Agent executor bindings for agent-handled transitions.
• Runtime stage state and the Process Funnel.
• Document Intake attached to a tenant, Process version, execution, and source event.

Editing requires workflow:update. Publication requires workflow:publish and a valid executor for every agent transition.

Document Intake accepts production files through the versioned Process field contract. The run detail shows document state, approved fields, provenance, and intake lineage.

Saved links can select a Process and run. Missing or inaccessible records show an unavailable state and protect other-tenant identifiers.
