+### Conditional flow with when()

+`when(condition, () => record)` records the inner step(s) guarded by a condition instead of a native `if`. `when` is a **free function** (import it), the condition is `ref.equals(scalar)` (equality only — no `<`/`>`/`&&`), and the recorded step is skipped at runtime unless the condition holds.

+### Conditional flow with when()
+
+`when(condition, () => record)` records the inner step(s) guarded by a condition instead of a native `if`. `when` is a **free function** (import it), the condition is `ref.equals(scalar)` (equality only — no `<`/`>`/`&&`), and the recorded step is skipped at runtime unless the condition holds. Never write a native `if` on a symbolic ref, and never call a method on one (e.g. `input.name.trim()`) — both silently mis-record or throw; compose strings with a template literal and branch with `when(...)`.
