     --task-id "workflow-cli-commands" \
     --results '{"commands":3,"tests":50,"status":"completed"}'
   

2. Agent Notification:

   npx claude-flow@alpha hooks notify \
     --message "Workflow CLI commands implemented"

Usage Examples

List Workflows

aqe workflow list --status running,paused

# Detailed with table format
aqe workflow list --detailed --format table --limit 10

Pause Workflow

# Graceful pause with reason

Architecture Highlights

Design Patterns

1. Command Pattern: Each command is a separate module
2. Strategy Pattern: Different pause/cancel modes
3. Template Method: Shared validation and error handling
4. Observer Pattern: Agent notification system
5. Memento Pattern: State preservation and checkpoints

Best Practices

• ✅ TDD approach (tests written first)
• ✅ Comprehensive error handling
• ✅ Input validation
• ✅ State preservation
• ✅ Audit logging
• ✅ Memory coordination
• ✅ Hook integration
• ✅ Type safety (TypeScript)
• ✅ Modular design
• ✅ Extensive documentation

---

Integration with Existing MCP Tools

Commands integrate with existing MCP handlers:

• workflow-execute.ts - Execution engine
• workflow-checkpoint.ts - Checkpoint management
• workflow-resume.ts - Resume functionality

Coordination Flow:

CLI Command → Memory Manager → MCP Handlers → Agents
     ↓              ↓               ↓           ↓
  Validation → Checkpoints → Execution → Notification
     ↓              ↓               ↓           ↓
Error Handling → Audit Log → Cleanup → Progress Update
