+Testing HITL Dags locally
+-------------------------
+
+``airflow dags test`` (and the underlying ``dag.test()``) supports HITL tasks.
A task that reaches
+the ``awaiting_input`` state stays parked -- the test run never resolves it
itself -- and the run
+waits, logging which tasks await input, until a response is recorded from
outside. The response
+goes through the same channels as on a real deployment: the Required Actions
page or the HITL REST
+API (``PATCH .../hitlDetails``) of an api-server sharing the metadata database
(for example
+``airflow standalone``, or a separately started ``airflow api-server``). Once
the response lands,
+the test run resumes the task and continues with downstream tasks.
+
+This also lets AI agents drive a HITL pipeline end-to-end locally: run
``airflow dags test``, watch
+for the waiting log line, ask the human, and submit their answer through the
HITL REST API. The two
+calls involved (``~`` works as a wildcard for ``dag_id`` and ``dag_run_id``):
