Draft Engine

Auto-Save Engine

Debounced field-level saves every 8s. Stores delta events with section/field/value context. Supports concurrent preparers via versioned events.

Draft Validation Pipeline

Rules engine checks IRC compliance, required fields, EIC/AOTC eligibility, and MEF schema conformance before advancing to review.

Return Initialization Engine

Creates the draft_started event, assigns returnId, links to clientId, and seeds the lifecycle. Supports batch initialization for large offices.

Automation Trigger Workflow

GitHub Actions dispatch on status transitions. Runs autosave-sync, draft-validation, return-initiation, and automation-trigger workflows via repository_dispatch.
