-- **Status checking** - Use `result.success?`, `result.failed?`, `result.skipped?` for outcomes
-- **State checking** - Use `result.complete?`, `result.interrupted?`, `result.executed?` for lifecycle
-- **Callbacks** - Chain with `.on_success`, `.on_failed`, `.on_good`, `.on_bad` for conditional logic

 ## Core Result Attributes
 
+> [!NOTE]
+> Result objects are immutable after task execution completes. All result data reflects the final state of the task execution and cannot be modified.
+
 Every result provides access to essential execution information:
 
 ```ruby
-result = ProcessUserOrderTask.call(order_id: 123)
+result = ProcessOrderTask.call(order_id: 123)
 
 # Core objects
-result.task     #=> <ProcessUserOrderTask instance>
-result.context  #=> <CMDx::Context with all task data>
-result.chain    #=> <CMDx::Chain execution tracking>
-result.metadata #=> Hash with execution metadata
+result.task     # → ProcessOrderTask instance
+result.context  # → CMDx::Context with all task data
+result.chain    # → CMDx::Chain execution tracking
+result.metadata # → Hash with execution metadata
 
 # Execution information
-result.id       #=> "abc123..." (unique task execution ID)
-result.state    #=> "complete" (execution state)
-result.status   #=> "success" (execution outcome)
-result.runtime  #=> 0.5 (execution time in seconds)
+result.id       # → "abc123..." (unique execution ID)

 ## State and Status Information
 
 Results provide comprehensive methods for checking execution state and status:
 
 ```ruby
-result = ProcessUserOrderTask.call
+result = ProcessOrderTask.call(order_id: 123)
 
 # State predicates (execution lifecycle)
-result.initialized? #=> false (after execution)
-result.executing?   #=> false (after execution)
-result.complete?    #=> true (successful completion)
-result.interrupted? #=> false (no interruption)
-result.executed?    #=> true (execution finished)
+result.complete?    # → true (successful completion)
+result.interrupted? # → false (no interruption)
+result.executed?    # → true (execution finished)
 
 # Status predicates (execution outcome)
-result.success?     #=> true (successful execution)
-result.skipped?     #=> false (not skipped)
-result.failed?      #=> false (no failure)
+result.success?     # → true (successful execution)
+result.failed?      # → false (no failure)
+result.skipped?     # → false (not skipped)
 
 # Outcome categorization
-result.good?        #=> true (success or skipped)
-result.bad?         #=> false (skipped or failed)
+result.good?        # → true (success or skipped)
+result.bad?         # → false (failed only)
 ```
 
 ## Execution Outcome Analysis
 
-Results provide additional methods for understanding execution outcomes:
+Results provide unified outcome determination:
 
 ```ruby
-result = ProcessOrderWorkflowTask.call
+result = ProcessOrderTask.call(order_id: 123)
 
-# Outcome determination
-result.outcome #=> "success" (combines state and status)
+result.outcome # → "success" (combines state and status)
 ```
 
 ## Runtime and Performance

+Results capture detailed timing information for performance analysis:
 
 ```ruby
-result = ProcessUserOrderTask.call
+result = ProcessOrderTask.call(order_id: 123)
 
 # Execution timing
-result.runtime #=> 0.5 (total execution time in seconds)
+result.runtime # → 0.5 (total execution time in seconds)
+
+# Performance monitoring
+result
+  .on_executed { |r|
+    MetricsService.record_execution_time(r.task.class.name, r.runtime)
+  }
 ```
 
 ## Failure Chain Analysis
 
+> [!IMPORTANT]
+> Failure chain analysis is only available for failed results. Use these methods to trace the root cause of failures in complex task workflows.
+
 For failed results, comprehensive failure analysis is available:
 
 ```ruby
-result = ProcessOrderWorkflowTask.call
+result = ProcessOrderWorkflowTask.call(order_id: 123)
 
 if result.failed?
   # Find the original cause of failure
-  original_failure = result.caused_failure
-  if original_failure
-    puts "Original failure: #{original_failure.task.class.name}"
+  if original_failure = result.caused_failure
+    puts "Root cause: #{original_failure.task.class.name}"
     puts "Reason: #{original_failure.metadata[:reason]}"
   end
 
   # Find what threw the failure to this result
-  throwing_task = result.threw_failure
-  if throwing_task
-    puts "Failure thrown by: #{throwing_task.task.class.name}"
+  if throwing_task = result.threw_failure
+    puts "Failure source: #{throwing_task.task.class.name}"
   end
 
   # Failure classification
-  result.caused_failure?  #=> true if this result was the original cause
-  result.threw_failure?   #=> true if this result threw a failure
-  result.thrown_failure?  #=> true if this result received a thrown failure
+  result.caused_failure?  # → true if this result was the original cause
+  result.threw_failure?   # → true if this result threw a failure
+  result.thrown_failure?  # → true if this result received a thrown failure
 end
 ```
 
-> [!IMPORTANT]
-> Failure chain analysis is only available for failed results. Use these methods to trace the root cause of failures in complex task workflows.
+### Error Handling Patterns
+
+```ruby
+result = ProcessPaymentTask.call(amount: "invalid")
+
+if result.failed?
+  case result.metadata[:reason]
+  when /validation/i
+    handle_validation_error(result)
+  when /network/i
+    schedule_retry(result)
+  else
+    escalate_error(result)
+  end
+end
+```
 
 ## Index and Position
 
 Results track their position within execution chains:
 
 ```ruby
-result = ProcessUserOrderTask.call
+result = ProcessOrderTask.call(order_id: 123)
 
 # Position in execution sequence
-result.index #=> 0 (first task in chain)
+result.index # → 0 (first task in chain)
 
 # Access via chain
-result.chain.results[result.index] == result #=> true
+result.chain.results[result.index] == result # → true
 ```
 
 ## Result Callbacks and Chaining
 
+> [!TIP]
+> Use result callbacks for clean, functional-style conditional logic. Callbacks return the result object, enabling method chaining and fluent interfaces.
+
 Results support fluent callback patterns for conditional logic:
 
 ```ruby
-result = ProcessUserOrderTask.call
+result = ProcessOrderTask.call(order_id: 123)
 
-# State-based callbacks
+# Status-based callbacks
 result
-  .on_complete { |r| logger.info "Task completed successfully" }
-  .on_interrupted { |r| logger.warn "Task was interrupted" }
-  .on_executed { |r| update_metrics(r.runtime) }
+  .on_success { |r| send_confirmation_email(r.context.email) }
+  .on_failed { |r| handle_payment_failure(r) }
+  .on_skipped { |r| log_skip_reason(r.metadata[:reason]) }
 
-# Status-based callbacks
+# State-based callbacks
 result
-  .on_success { |r| send_confirmation_email(r.context) }
-  .on_skipped { |r| logger.info "Skipped: #{r.metadata[:reason]}" }
-  .on_failed { |r| handle_failure(r) }
+  .on_complete { |r| update_order_status("processed") }
+  .on_interrupted { |r| cleanup_partial_state(r.context) }
 
 # Outcome-based callbacks
 result
-  .on_good { |r| celebrate_success }
-  .on_bad { |r| handle_problem }
+  .on_good { |r| increment_success_counter }
+  .on_bad { |r| alert_operations_team }
 ```
 
-### Callback Chaining Examples
+### Practical Callback Examples
 
 ```ruby
-ProcessUserOrderTask
-  .call(order_id: 123)
+# Order processing pipeline
+ProcessOrderTask
+  .call(order_id: params[:order_id])
   .on_success { |result|
-    SendOrderNotificationTask.call(result.context)
+    # Chain to notification task
+    SendOrderConfirmationTask.call(result.context)
   }
   .on_failed { |result|
-    ErrorReporter.notify(result.metadata)
+    # Handle specific failure types
+    case result.metadata[:error_type]
+    when "payment_declined"
+      redirect_to payment_retry_path
+    when "inventory_unavailable"
+      redirect_to out_of_stock_path
+    else
+      redirect_to error_path
+    end
   }
   .on_executed { |result|
-    MetricsService.record_execution_time(result.runtime)
+    # Always log performance metrics
+    Rails.logger.info "Order processing took #{result.runtime}s"
   }
 ```

 ## Pattern Matching
 
-Results support Ruby's pattern matching (Ruby 3.0+) through array and hash deconstruction:
+> [!NOTE]
+> Pattern matching requires Ruby 3.0+. The `deconstruct` method returns `[state, status]` for array patterns, while `deconstruct_keys` provides hash access to result attributes.
+
+Results support Ruby's pattern matching through array and hash deconstruction:
 
 ### Array Pattern Matching
 
-Match against state and status in order:
-
 ```ruby
-result = ProcessUserOrderTask.call
+result = ProcessOrderTask.call(order_id: 123)
 
 case result
 in ["complete", "success"]
-  puts "Task completed successfully"
+  redirect_to success_page
 in ["interrupted", "failed"]
-  puts "Task failed during execution"
+  retry_with_backoff(result)
 in ["complete", "skipped"]
-  puts "Task was skipped but completed"
+  log_skip_and_continue
 end
 ```
 
 ### Hash Pattern Matching
 
-Match against specific result attributes:
-
 ```ruby
-result = ProcessUserOrderTask.call
+result = ProcessOrderTask.call(order_id: 123)
 
 case result
 in { state: "complete", status: "success" }
-  puts "Perfect execution!"
-in { state: "interrupted", status: "failed", metadata: { retryable: true } }
-  puts "Failed but can retry"
-in { good: true }
-  puts "Execution went well overall"
+  celebrate_success
+in { status: "failed", metadata: { retryable: true } }
+  schedule_retry(result)
 in { bad: true, metadata: { reason: String => reason } }
-  puts "Something went wrong: #{reason}"
+  escalate_error("Failed: #{reason}")
 end
 ```
 
 ### Pattern Matching with Guards
 
-Use guard clauses for conditional matching:
-
 ```ruby
 case result
 in { status: "failed", metadata: { attempts: n } } if n < 3
-  retry_task(result)
+  retry_task_with_delay(result, n * 2)
 in { status: "failed", metadata: { attempts: n } } if n >= 3
-  give_up_task(result)
-in { runtime: time } if time > threshold
-  log_performance_issue(result)
+  mark_permanently_failed(result)
+in { runtime: time } if time > performance_threshold
+  investigate_performance_issue(result)
 end
 ```
 
-> [!NOTE]
-> Pattern matching requires Ruby 3.0+. The `deconstruct` method returns `[state, status]` for array patterns, while `deconstruct_keys` provides hash access to `state`, `status`, `metadata`, `executed`, `good`, and `bad` attributes.
