   > @Startrekzky I used the "2D list" API to collect a few hundred GitHub projects into DevLake. The stages ran in sequence. But when one stage fails, the whole pipeline stalls. There are many reasons for one stage to fail/stall:
   > 
   > * miss-spelt project names
   > * rate limit exceeded
   > * etc.
   > 
   > As a result, during the few days of the pipeline's execution, I found myself having to repeatedly return to the config-ui page to check if any stage failed and resume the pipeline manually. It would be much more efficient to automatically skip failed stages, and let the user intervene only at the end, when no executable stages are left unprocessed.
   
   Thanks for the use case, I'll think about it.
