 1. All the new API's go under [dapr-sdk maven package](https://github.com/dapr/java-sdk/tree/master/sdk)
-2. Make sure there is an example talking about how to use the API along with a README. [Example](https://github.com/dapr/java-sdk/pull/1235/files#diff-69ed756c4c01fd5fa884aac030dccb8f3f4d4fefa0dc330862d55a6f87b34a14)

+
+#### Mechanical Markdown
+
+Mechanical markdown is used to validate example outputs in our CI pipeline. It ensures that the expected output in README files matches the actual output when running the examples. This helps maintain example output, catches any unintended changes in example behavior, and regressions.
+
+To test mechanical markdown locally:
+
+1. Install the package:
+```bash
+pip3 install mechanical-markdown
+```
+
+2. Run the test from the respective examples README directory, for example:
+```bash
+cd examples
+mm.py ./src/main/java/io/dapr/examples/workflows/README.md
+```
+
+The test will:
+- Parse the STEP markers in the README
+- Execute the commands specified in the markers
+- Compare the actual output with the expected output
+- Report any mismatches
+
+When writing STEP markers:
+- Use `output_match_mode: substring` for flexible matching
+- Quote strings containing special YAML characters (like `:`, `*`, `'`)
+- Set appropriate timeouts for long-running examples
+
+Example STEP marker:
+```yaml
+<!-- STEP
+name: Run example
+output_match_mode: substring
+expected_stdout_lines:
+  - "Starting workflow: io.dapr.examples.workflows.compensation.BookTripWorkflow"
+  ...
+background: true

+
+### Compensation Pattern
+The compensation pattern is used to "undo" or "roll back" previously completed steps if a later step fails. This pattern is particularly useful in scenarios where you need to ensure that all resources are properly cleaned up even if the process fails.
+
+The example simulates a trip booking workflow that books a flight, hotel, and car. If any step fails, the workflow will automatically compensate (cancel) the previously completed bookings in reverse order.
+
+The `BookTripWorkflow` class defines the workflow. It orchestrates the booking process and handles compensation if any step fails. See the code snippet below:
+```java
+public class BookTripWorkflow extends Workflow {
+  @Override
+  public WorkflowStub create() {
+    return ctx -> {
+      List<String> compensations = new ArrayList<>();
+      
+      try {
+        // Book flight
+        String flightResult = ctx.callActivity(BookFlightActivity.class.getName(), String.class).await();
+        ctx.getLogger().info("Flight booking completed: " + flightResult);
+        compensations.add(CancelFlightActivity.class.getName());
+
+        // Book hotel
+        String hotelResult = ctx.callActivity(BookHotelActivity.class.getName(), String.class).await();
+        ctx.getLogger().info("Hotel booking completed: " + hotelResult);
+        compensations.add(CancelHotelActivity.class.getName());
+
+        // Book car
+        String carResult = ctx.callActivity(BookCarActivity.class.getName(), String.class).await();
+        ctx.getLogger().info("Car booking completed: " + carResult);
+        compensations.add(CancelCarActivity.class.getName());
+
+      } catch (Exception e) {
+        ctx.getLogger().info("******** executing compensation logic ********");
+        // Execute compensations in reverse order
+        Collections.reverse(compensations);
+        for (String compensation : compensations) {
+          try {
+            ctx.callActivity(compensation, String.class).await();
+          } catch (Exception ex) {
+            ctx.getLogger().error("Error during compensation: " + ex.getMessage());
+          }
+        }
+        ctx.complete("Workflow failed, compensation applied");
+        return;
+      }
+      ctx.complete("All bookings completed successfully");
+    };
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Each activity class (`BookFlightActivity`, `BookHotelActivity`, `BookCarActivity`) implements the booking logic, while their corresponding compensation activities (`CancelFlightActivity`, `CancelHotelActivity`, `CancelCarActivity`) implement the cancellation logic.

+Execute the following script in order to run the BookTripWorker:

+```
+
+Once running, execute the following script to run the BookTripClient:
+```sh
+java -jar target/dapr-java-sdk-examples-exec.jar io.dapr.examples.workflows.compensation.BookTripClient
+```
+<!-- END_STEP -->
+
+The output demonstrates:
+1. The workflow starts and successfully books a flight
+2. Then successfully books a hotel
+3. When attempting to book a car, it fails (intentionally)
+4. The compensation logic triggers, canceling the hotel and flight in reverse order
+5. The workflow completes with a status indicating the compensation was applied
+
+Key Points:
+1. Each successful booking step adds its compensation action to an ArrayList
+2. If an error occurs, the list of compensations is reversed and executed in reverse order
+3. The workflow ensures that all resources are properly cleaned up even if the process fails
+4. Each activity simulates work with a short delay for demonstration purposes
+
+
+### Suspend/Resume Pattern
