- * `outcomePorts` FLAG while `serialize` was about to infer it, which would have
- * made `check` refuse per-outcome wiring that `compile` then emitted.
- *
- * **The product's rule, which the model follows.** On the base node
- * (`uipath.human-in-the-loop`, `type: 'quick'`) and on the quick-form variant,
- * the designer draws ONE handle per entry in `inputs.schema.outcomes`, named
- * `outcome-<id>`, whatever the node's `typeVersion` — and draws the manifest's
- * static `completed` handle only when there are no outcomes
- * (flow-workbench `build-handle-customization.ts:102-124`; it derives them on
- * every render and deliberately never saves them). A leftover `completed` edge
- * on such a node is a stale placeholder: since flow-workbench #3512 the load
- * path and the converter remap it to the PRIMARY outcome
- * (`hitl-edge-reconciliation.ts:52-63`), so every other outcome loses its path at
- * run time. So a task with outcomes never leaves on `completed` here. The two
- * app-backed variants are different: action-app and document-validation read
- * their outcomes from `inputs.app`, and `completed` really is the only handle
- * they render (`hitl-edge-reconciliation.ts:68-74`).
- *
- * (This replaces an older premise — "the definition VERSION selects the port
- * shape, and the variants have no per-outcome version" (#729). The manifests do
- * declare only `completed` statically; the designer just never reads that list
- * for these two node types once outcomes exist.)
- *
- * **Three shapes**, and what `.step()` after the task means in each — ".step()
- * continues from the task's tails":
- *
- * - `per-outcome`: the task ROUTES per outcome. One tail, the PRIMARY (first)
- *   outcome's `outcome-<id>`; the author routes the rest with `.stepToList` /
- *   `.stepToRef`, or all of them as `.stepSwitch` arms.
- * - `every-outcome`: the task does NOT route per outcome. One tail PER outcome,
- *   so `.step()` continues every outcome to the next step ("fan-out") — the
- *   decision reaches the flow as data, `out('<step>', 'Action')`, in the handles
- *   the product draws. An `action: 'End'` outcome is the exception: the flow
- *   runtime never reads `action` (flow-workbench `hitl-serialization.ts` does
- *   not; only the agent storage projection does), so the graph is the only thing
- *   that can end the run there, and `serialize` gives it an End node.
- * - `placeholder`: `completed` — action-app, document-validation, and a task
- *   with no outcomes.
- *
- * **More than one outcome infers `per-outcome`** on the base node (#739): a task
- * that publishes a choice and then routes every button the same way was the
- * modelling error behind flow-builder-sdk#735, and a warning alone did not
- * change what agents emitted. Five things keep a base or quick-form task on
- * `every-outcome` instead, in this order:
- *
- * 1. `outcomePorts: false` — the explicit "decision as data" choice.
- * 2. `variant: 'quick-form'`. Not a product limit — quick-form draws the same
- *    per-outcome handles — but its authors write `.step()` or a `.switch` on the
- *    Action after it and mean "every outcome continues" (every quick-form source
- *    in the 09-23 baseline does), so inferring primary-only there would strand
- *    the other outcomes. It routes per outcome when asked: `outcomePorts: true`,
- *    or `.stepSwitch`. Its definition version never moves.
- * 3. An explicit `{ version }` pin. `decompile` pins every node and writes
- *    `outcomePorts: true` whenever a task's outcomes lead to different places, so
- *    a pinned task that reaches `.step()` without the flag is a round-tripped
- *    artifact whose outcomes all go to one step, or a legacy lone `completed`
- *    edge, which meant "every outcome continues" before #3512. Both are this
- *    shape. The pin also wins the version: `outcomePorts: true` on a pinned 1.0
- *    routes per outcome on the 1.0 node, which `flow validate` accepts.
- * 4. A single outcome — an acknowledgement, not a choice.
- * 5. Every outcome carrying `action: 'End'` — there is no continuation to
- *    distinguish, and each outcome gets its End.
- *
- * `exposeError: true` or `outcomePorts: true` select `per-outcome` on every node
- * type, including the two app-backed variants, so that `serialize` and `check`
- * refuse them there with their own message rather than silently ignoring them.
- *
- * **`legacyCompleted: true`** is the one way to keep a task with outcomes on the
- * `completed` handle: the `placeholder` shape, marked `legacyCompleted`. It
- * exists so a file saved before flow-workbench #3512, whose task leaves on one
- * `completed` edge, round-trips through decompile and compile unchanged
- * (flow-builder-sdk#1197). It is the file's shape, not one to author: the

+ * the designer draws ONE handle per entry in `inputs.schema.outcomes`, named
+ * `outcome-<id>`, whatever the node's `typeVersion` — and draws the manifest's
+ * static `completed` handle only when there are no outcomes
+ * (flow-workbench `build-handle-customization.ts:102-124`; it derives them on
+ * every render and deliberately never saves them). A leftover `completed` edge
+ * on such a node is a stale placeholder: since flow-workbench #3512 the load
+ * path and the converter remap it to the PRIMARY outcome
+ * (`hitl-edge-reconciliation.ts:52-63`), so every other outcome loses its path at
+ * run time. So a task with outcomes never leaves on `completed` here. The two
+ * app-backed variants are different: action-app and document-validation read
+ * their outcomes from `inputs.app`, and `completed` really is the only handle
+ * they render (`hitl-edge-reconciliation.ts:68-74`).
+ *
+ * (This replaces an older premise — "the definition VERSION selects the port
+ * shape, and the variants have no per-outcome version" (#729). The manifests do
+ * declare only `completed` statically; the designer just never reads that list
+ * for these two node types once outcomes exist.)
+ *
+ * **Three shapes**, and what `.step()` after the task means in each — ".step()
+ * continues from the task's tails":
+ *
+ * - `per-outcome`: the task ROUTES per outcome. One tail, the PRIMARY (first)
+ *   outcome's `outcome-<id>`; the author routes the rest with `.stepToList` /
+ *   `.stepToRef`, or all of them as `.stepSwitch` arms.
+ * - `every-outcome`: the task does NOT route per outcome. One tail PER outcome,
+ *   so `.step()` continues every outcome to the next step ("fan-out") — the
+ *   decision reaches the flow as data, `out('<step>', 'Action')`, in the handles
+ *   the product draws. An `action: 'End'` outcome is the exception: the flow
+ *   runtime never reads `action` (flow-workbench `hitl-serialization.ts` does
+ *   not; only the agent storage projection does), so the graph is the only thing
+ *   that can end the run there, and `serialize` gives it an End node.
+ * - `placeholder`: `completed` — action-app, document-validation, and a task
+ *   with no outcomes.
+ *
+ * **More than one outcome infers `per-outcome`** on the base node (#739): a task
+ * that publishes a choice and then routes every button the same way was the
+ * modelling error behind flow-builder-sdk#735, and a warning alone did not
+ * change what agents emitted. Five things keep a base or quick-form task on
+ * `every-outcome` instead, in this order:
+ *
+ * 1. `outcomePorts: false` — the explicit "decision as data" choice.
+ * 2. `variant: 'quick-form'`. Not a product limit — quick-form draws the same
+ *    per-outcome handles — but its authors write `.step()` or a `.switch` on the
+ *    Action after it and mean "every outcome continues" (every quick-form source
+ *    in the 09-23 baseline does), so inferring primary-only there would strand
+ *    the other outcomes. It routes per outcome when asked: `outcomePorts: true`,
+ *    or `.stepSwitch`. Its definition version never moves.
+ * 3. An explicit `{ version }` pin. `decompile` pins every node and writes
+ *    `outcomePorts: true` whenever a task's outcomes lead to different places, so
+ *    a pinned task that reaches `.step()` without the flag is a round-tripped
+ *    artifact whose outcomes all go to one step, or a legacy lone `completed`
+ *    edge, which meant "every outcome continues" before #3512. Both are this
+ *    shape. The pin also wins the version: `outcomePorts: true` on a pinned 1.0
+ *    routes per outcome on the 1.0 node, which `flow validate` accepts.
+ * 4. A single outcome — an acknowledgement, not a choice.
+ * 5. Every outcome carrying `action: 'End'` — there is no continuation to
+ *    distinguish, and each outcome gets its End.
+ *
+ * `exposeError: true` or `outcomePorts: true` select `per-outcome` on every node
+ * type, including the two app-backed variants, so that `serialize` and `check`
+ * refuse them there with their own message rather than silently ignoring them.
+ *
+ * **`legacyCompleted: true`** is the one way to keep a task with outcomes on the
+ * `completed` handle: the `placeholder` shape, marked `legacyCompleted`. It
+ * exists so a file saved before flow-workbench #3512, whose task leaves on one
+ * `completed` edge, round-trips through decompile and compile unchanged
+ * (flow-builder-sdk#1197). It is the file's shape, not one to author: the
+ * product runs that edge as the PRIMARY outcome only, and `check` says so
+ * (HITL_LEGACY_COMPLETED). `serialize`'s edge guard below exempts exactly the
+ * nodes that asked for it.
