+### CL-2026-06-25-WORKFLOW-ORCHESTRATION-DOC-VALIDATION: validate whether existing architecture docs already cover PEDW workflow/orchestration
+
+date: 2026-06-25
+author: Cline
+scope: `context/workflow-orchestration-documentation-validation.md`, `memory-bank/change-log.md`
+type: change
+rationale: Validate, using existing architecture documentation first, whether PEDW's workflow/orchestration model is already sufficiently documented for appeals and representations without reopening broad workflow discovery or performing route-by-route API review.
+impact: Documentation/context only; confirms current workflow/orchestration coverage across draft lifecycle, submission/finalisation, storage ownership, queue handoff, CRM transition, PDF/document generation, Notify/email side effects, completion-state handling, integration sequencing, and ownership transitions. No runtime, API, auth/session, CRM, storage, queue, notification, i18n, or behaviour change.
+status: completed
+
+Summary:
+
+- Confirmed the required context was read before validation:
+    - `context/architecture.md`
+    - `context/journey-architecture-map.md`
+    - `context/api-route-map.md`
+    - `context/api-grouping-workflow-boundary-assessment.md`
+    - `context/api-grouping-adoption-roadmap.md`
+    - `context/portal-api-platform-assessment.md`
+    - `context/integration-map.md`
+    - `memory-bank/change-log.md`
+    - `memory-bank/open-questions.md`
+- Created new validation document:
+    - `context/workflow-orchestration-documentation-validation.md`
+- Reused existing documentation as the evidence base and did not perform a new workflow discovery stream.
+- Validated the following workflow areas:
+    - draft appeal lifecycle
+    - appeal submission / finalisation
+    - draft representation lifecycle
+    - representation submission / finalisation
+    - Azure Storage ownership
+    - queue handoff
+    - CRM transition boundary
+    - PDF/document generation where relevant
+    - Notify/email side effects where relevant
+    - completion-state handling
+    - integration sequencing
+    - ownership transitions
+- Main conclusion:
+    - existing PEDW architecture documents are already sufficient to describe the workflow/orchestration model at architecture level
+    - strongest evidence is already present in `context/journey-architecture-map.md`, supported by `context/api-route-map.md`, `context/api-grouping-workflow-boundary-assessment.md`, `context/architecture.md`, and `context/integration-map.md`
+    - the only notable gap is limited downstream detail beyond the visible queue handoff / CRM transition boundary, which does not justify another broad workflow discovery stream
+- Final recommendation recorded in the validation document:
+    - **small documentation consolidation only**
+    - no new workflow discovery needed at this time
+
+Validation:
+
+- Documentation-only validation.
+- Existing documentation used as primary evidence.
+- No route inventory, broad code discovery, implementation, migration, or refactor performed.
+- Intended lightweight validation for this slice:
+    - `git diff --check`
+
+Follow-ups:
+
+- Prefer small documentation consolidation/cross-linking only if follow-up work is requested.
+- Do not open a new broad workflow/orchestration discovery stream unless a specific contradiction or missing boundary emerges.
