What-If Cases

Handle a Lost Response

Distinguish source outcome, recorded decision and view availability.

Write a short user-facing result for each case.

Case Facts
A Registration was recorded. Confirmation is queued. The account view failed to load.
B A remote source received a send request. The response was lost; its effect is unknown.
C An authorized reviewer recorded a rejection. Another person was refused permission to review.
Engineering Depth

For B, retain the original operation ID, input and source binding. A retry's correlation ID may change; it does not identify a new business intent by itself.

If the source can establish that the original effect did not occur, follow its retry contract. Otherwise preserve uncertainty. CS-09.

Your Reflection

What is known, what is unknown, and what can safely happen next?

Worked Discussion
Case Result and next action
A Registration recorded; confirmation pending; view unavailable. Retry the view.
B Send outcome unknown. Reconcile the original operation before an unsafe resend.
C First review completed with rejection. Second review request was refused.

Now replace a pure label formatter with a network lookup. The lookup story needs failure handling; the pure formatter can remain total.
