You Do Not Have Recovery Until You Can Prove State Integrity

Published 2026-05-18 | State integrity

Recovery is incomplete until the team can prove shared state integrity rather than merely restart the workflow and hope the damage is gone.

Restarting the workflow is not recovery if the shared state underneath it is still disputed, stale, or partly corrupted.

A real recovery check should prove

  • The expected state version is restored.
  • No partial write remains active.
  • Downstream actors are reading the repaired value.

Use the benchmarks, architecture guide, and examples to test those integrity checks directly.

Recover the truth source, not just the process.

Use the benchmarks, architecture, and examples docs to validate state integrity after recovery instead of relying on resumed activity alone.
