- Green light display upon successful completion
- Requirement 2: STOP button to instantly close windows of running tasks
- Immediate browser shutdown
- Terminate ongoing task execution
- Requirement 3: Pause function to suspend execution
- Pause subsequent workflows after the current task finishes
- Resume button to continue pending tasks
Location: To the left of each task checkbox
Color Definition:
π€ Grey β Task idle / pending execution
π‘ Yellow β Task in progress
π’ Green β β
Task completed successfully
π΄ Red β β Task failed or manually aborted

Original Behaviour:
- Only mark a stop flag
- Wait for the active task to finish naturally
- Risk of prolonged freezing
Optimized Behaviour β¨:
- β‘ Instant browser termination with no waiting delay
- π Terminate all tasks; mark interrupted tasks with red lights
- β±οΈ Millisecond-level fast response
- πΎ Execution logs & User Records remain fully saved
Pause Function:
- Suspends workflow after finishing the current running task
- Will not cut off a task mid-execution
- Ideal for step-by-step debugging
Resume Function:
- Resume execution from the next pending task
- Preserve the complete workflow sequence
