- Stop and ask for clarification if required inputs, permissions, safety boundaries, or success criteria are missing.
Example
After inventory reservation succeeds, a payment timeout is an unknown outcome. Query the provider using the original idempotency key before charging again or releasing inventory; record the resolution and retry compensation durably.
