# STORE-12 — A finished turn leaves the session completed, not idle

*GR-STORE (Part I) · level: extended · profiles: storage-api, runtime · added in 1.0*

## The rule

> **Normative.** This is the rule.
>
> 1. `idle` means a session was created and has never executed.
>
> 2. A session whose turn has finished is released as `completed`.
>
> 3. The two are distinct states, and an implementation must not use `idle` to mean that a turn has finished.
