Pause versus Stop and Force Stop
Pause keeps a task available for explicit continuation. Stop and Force Stop prevent future dispatches, but neither guarantees reversal of a request already sent.
Resume after a browser restart
A browser restart requires state reconstruction from IndexedDB and review of in-flight actions. Alarms are wakeup signals, not a promise of uninterrupted background execution.
Check an unknown result
For an uncertain write, inspect the current relationship before deciding what happened. Do not automatically resend a Follow or Unfollow because its response was lost.
Keep account data separate
Start, Resume, and Dispatch must compare the current actor with the task actor. An account switch moves the task to review rather than continuing under another identity.
