The script is re-executed from the top — a program has no continuation to restore across a process death — but every step the run already settled answers from the record instead of running again, so a run that died at step 14 of 21 pays only for the steps that are left and writes the same step structure an uninterrupted run would have written. Completed and failed steps both answer from the record; a step that was merely interrupted holds no settled answer and runs. The source re-executed is the source stored when the run started, never a file on disk, so editing the script between attempts cannot change the structure. Only failed and stopped runs are resumable: resuming a pending, running or completed run is a conflict. ## OpenAPI ````yaml /en/openapi/v3-current/narya.yaml post /v1/workflows/runs/{runId}/resume openapi: 3.1.0 info: title: Narya Host API version: 1.0.0 description: >- The contract between the Narya host and every client. One long-lived host runs on your machine and serves this API over a Unix socket in your Narya home. Narya creates the socket owner-only, and file permissions are the whole authorization. There is no password, no token and no TLS. The terminal client and the one-shot command that Lerian ships drive this API, and a client you write drives the same one. Results never arrive on the response of the request that caused them. Submitting a message returns 202 with a turn id. Everything the turn produces streams over GET /v1/events as server-sent events with a typed envelope, and a stream resumes from a Last-Event-ID header. One error envelope: code, title, message, and fields on 422. Codes are NRY- followed by four digits. A paged list answers items, limit and a nextCursor when more remains.
