Description

The implementation of dynamic workflows in #27 requires users to explicitly register which operations their type is able to do.

For types that can be both serialized and deserialized, it should be possible to support all operations by falling back on their serialized forms, even if the user did not explicitly register compatibility with the operation.

Research direction

Start by reading the dynamic-workflow implementation from #27 and trace how operation compatibility is registered. Determine how serialized and deserialized forms are represented; done means types supporting both can perform all diagram operations without explicit compatibility registration.
