That is the whole challenge, actually! A new metric I'm going to dogfood into forge is ETTWS - estimated time to working solution.

A simple retry loop around your whole workflow could, in some cases, be all you need. But it could mean many blind attempts to get through a workflow successfully. And hopefully there isn't a payment step partway through!

The fewer hard errors nix the whole workflow, the lower your ETTWS.

Is it strange that I immediately interpreted ETTWS to be Estimated Time To William Shakespeare?
