+# Atomic message handlers
+
+This sample shows off important techniques for handling signals and updates, aka messages.  In particular, it illustrates how message handlers can interleave and how you can manage that.
+
+* Here, using workflow.wait_condition, signal and update handlers will only operate when the workflow is within a certain state--between cluster_started and cluster_shutdown.
+* You can run start_workflow with an initializer signal that you want to run before anything else other than the workflow's constructor.  This pattern is known as "signal-with-start."
+* Message handlers can block and their actions can be interleaved with one another and with the main workflow.  This can easily cause bugs, so we use a lock to protect shared state from interleaved access.
+* Message handlers should also finish before the workflow run completes.  One option is to use a lock.
+* An "Entity" workflow, i.e. a long-lived workflow, periodically "continues as new".  It must do this to prevent its history from growing too large, and it passes its state to the next workflow.  You can check `workflow.info().is_continue_as_new_suggested()` to see when it's time.  Just make sure message handlers have finished before doing so.  
+
+To run, first see [README.md](../../README.md) for prerequisites.
+
+Then, run the following from this directory to run the sample:
+
+```bash
+poetry run python worker.py
+poetry run python starter.py
+```
+
+This will start a worker to run your workflow and activities, then start a ClusterManagerWorkflow and put it through its paces.
