Guarded coordination backbone
Minimal server-side event chain for replaying who changed what state, under which request id.
Run the validator and interrupt layer before handoff.
Preflight only runs after explicit approval. `blocked` and `reconfirm required` stop handoff until the case is revalidated.
Blocked: Preflight can only run after explicit approval is granted.
Blocked: Preflight can only run after explicit approval is granted.
Blocked: Preflight can only run after explicit approval is granted.
Blocked: Preflight can only run after explicit approval is granted.
Move the case through the guarded approval checkpoint.
The system now enforces allowed approval-state transitions. If a transition is not allowed, the action stays blocked and the guard records why.
Blocked: Transition from Approval requested to Options prepared is not allowed.
Blocked: Case is already in that approval state.
Allowed: move case to Approval blocked.
Allowed: move case to Returned to review.
Allowed: move case to Approval granted.
