Signing Workflows

A signing workflow is the end-to-end path from customer request to completed qualified signature.

Workflow stages

1. Customer backend creates a signing request.
2. The API authenticates and validates the request.
3. The platform selects the execution path.
4. A local or service-side path performs signing.
5. The API returns the signed output.
6. Events and logs record operational state.

Synchronous and asynchronous behavior

Core signing flows should return synchronously where possible. Operational changes, device state, and retryable background behavior should be handled through webhooks and logs.
