Pattern Decisions This Source Supports

Pattern Supported decision Required contract Claim note
Step progress Choose step progress when users need status for named workflow stages, not only a route position. The indicator reads from the same workflow state that controls route availability, validation, saved answers, and submission gates. AgDS supports color-independent status labels, cannot-start-yet states, explanatory blocked-step alerts, and assistive-technology status understanding.
