Server Actions
Server Actions is a web development programming pattern that allows developers to invoke server-side functions directly from client-side components without manually defining API endpoints. Key characteristics include marking server-side logic with directives such as 'use server', support for form submissions and data mutation operations, and ensuring sensitive logic executes on the server to maintain security boundaries. The pattern is widely used in the React ecosystem and full-stack frameworks such as Next.js.

AI service orchestration can declaratively describe nodes and state transitions through workflow frameworks such as LangGraph and Dify, or encapsulate capabilities as microservices uniformly scheduled by an API gateway.
Server Actions allow server-side authentication logic to be called directly in interactions such as form submissions without manually building API routes, simplifying operations such as logout and token refresh.

Next.js 13+ introduced the 'use server' directive to mark Server Actions, ensuring functions execute only on the server side with their internal logic inaccessible to the client
