Smeldr enhances state flow validation with stricter status checks

Smeldr has updated its state flow validation to ensure that the status field in create requests accurately matches the defined flow for its type. Previously, Smeldr might have silently succeeded even with an incorrect state; now, it will return a 409 error if a state from a different type's flow is provided. This change enhances the integrity of custom state flows within Smeldr instances. AI

IMPACT This update improves the reliability of state management within the Smeldr tool, benefiting self-hosted and open-source users.

RANK_REASON This is a software update for a specific tool, not a major industry release or research milestone.

    If your Smeldr instance uses custom state flows, the status field on any create request is now checked against that type's own flow. Passing a state that belongs to a different type's flow gets a 409, not a silent success. https:// smeldr.dev/devlog/t148-state-v alidation-gap?utm…
