## What it is
A specification and utility library defining Flux Standard Action (FSA), a human-friendly convention for the shape of Flux/Redux action objects with type, payload, error, and meta fields. It enables interoperable tooling by standardizing action structure across Flux implementations.

## Use cases
- standardize redux action object shapes
- validate that actions follow the fsa spec
- handle errors as first-class citizens in flux actions
- build redux middleware that relies on consistent action structure
- migrate a flux codebase to a common action format

## When to choose
- you use redux or flux and want consistent, predictable action objects
- you are building tooling or middleware that consumes redux actions
- you want error handling conventions baked into your action pattern

## When to avoid
- you use redux toolkit, which has its own action conventions
- your project does not use flux-style unidirectional data flow
- you need an actively developed library rather than a stable spec

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: maintenance
- function: state-management, serialization, developer-tools
- domain: frontend, web-development, developer-tools
