Geneva Drive hero mutation and deletion

question 2 connections

Audience asks what Geneva Drive does if the hero is mutated or deleted while the workflow is running. Julik: external mutation is just how your system is written — often legitimate (e.g. a user changing their email address before the scheduled email sends). On deletion, the default is to cancel the workflow, but there is a `continue_without_hero` statement; a workflow without a hero is also supported.

answer_summary
Mutation is fine and often desirable; deletion cancels the workflow by default, but `continue_without_hero` and hero-less workflows are supported.
