Path Parameters
^job_Response
Status
The status only moves forward: queued → running → completed,
failed or cancelled. Everything a running job goes through —
sending to the provider, uploading references, switching to another
provider — is a stage of running; a job never goes back to
queued. (Older API builds also reported submitting; treat it as
running.)
awaiting_confirmation (multi-step pipelines only): the job finished a
step that asks for review and waits for POST /jobs/{id}/confirm. It
is not terminal.
queued, running, awaiting_confirmation, completed, failed, cancelled What the job is doing right now. null once the job is terminal, and
while the job is awaiting_confirmation.

Numeric fraction 0..1 for a progress bar
Human-readable failure message. null unless the job failed or was cancelled.
