Block task completion with incomplete dependencies

# Block task completion in Awork if subtasks or dependencies are incomplete

This automation template prevents premature task closure in Awork by enforcing task hierarchy and dependency rules. The workflow triggers via webhook when a task status changes and checks the completion status of all related subtasks and dependencies. Designed for project teams that require strict process compliance and structured task management.
