RTE_FLOW_ACTION_TYPE_SET_TAG

okay so what does it do? it sets a tag. and what's a tag? it's transient data that gets used during flow matching β€” like a lil sticky note that exists only while the matching is happening.

the important part, bestie, listen up: this tag is not delivered to the application. it does its thing internally and then it's gone. the app never sees it. it's giving backstage pass, not front row seat πŸ’…

and here's the slay: multiple tags are supported by specifying index. so you can have more than one tag hanging around β€” you just tell it which one via the index and it knows exactly which sticky note you mean. obsessed. 🌈
