# retry_workflow

Continue a stalled or finished workflow run from a chosen step. This starts a NEW run that reuses the outputs the original run already recorded and only executes — and only pays for — the steps from 'from_step' onward. The original run is left untouched and the new one records which run it continues. Omit 'from_step' to resume at the first step that has no recorded output. A step whose output was never recorded is re-run, never skipped. Requires authentication.

## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "retry_workflow",
    "arguments": {
      "session_id": "<session_id>"
    }
  }
}
```

## Why retry_workflow is rated High

retry_workflow triggers real processes with real consequences. An agent gone sideways doesn't fire it once. It starts dozens of builds, sends mass notifications, or burns through compute before anyone looks up.

## Use case

AI agents invoke retry_workflow to trigger actions in Meta Council. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Rate-limited**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Meta Council:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "retry_workflow": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "retry_workflow_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}
```
