From fb35092c0b75f5eb70f3799d3b26f3ff44715621 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "claude[bot]" <41898282+claude[bot]@users.noreply.github.com> Date: Wed, 12 Aug 2026 02:31:47 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] docs(TSP-1386): add "Controlling a running task" section to Inventor page MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Documents two new mid-run controls introduced in PR #16981: the Stop button (which cancels the task and dismisses pending approvals, showing a "Stopped after Xs" marker) and mid-run messaging (which queues a message showing "Queued — will be applied shortly" and redirects Inventor at its next step).
