workflow/childControl

Skips or retries one workflow child keyed by the item’s (childId, attempt) pair; admission-only bare ack.

Type: WorkflowChildControlParams

workflow/childControl params: skip or retry one workflow child, keyed by the (childId, attempt) pair the workflow item’s children[] carries.

Field Type Stability Presence Description
action WorkflowChildAction required The control to apply.
attempt integer required The child’s CURRENT attempt (integer >= 1). A stale value rejects "stale_attempt"; re-read the item and re-key — never guess.
childId string required The child, from the item’s children[]; required, non-empty.
commandId string required The idempotency handle (UUIDv7).
sessionId string required The target session.
workflowRunId string required The run owning the child; required, non-empty.
