        <h2>IAB workflow bundles for deployment and handover</h2>
        <p>
          ImageActionBot uses <strong>IAB workflow bundle files</strong> to package reusable automation workflows for
          transfer between team members and machines. This reduces setup duplication and helps operations teams run
          consistent processes with better governance.
        </p>
        <ul>
          <li><strong>Operational continuity:</strong> preserve working workflows as portable backup artifacts.</li>
          <li><strong>Faster rollout:</strong> distribute tested process bundles instead of rebuilding manually.</li>
          <li><strong>Safer adoption:</strong> import, validate, and dry-run bundles before production execution.</li>
        </ul>
        <p>
