Currently, the --download_outputs flag can be used with planemo run, but it requires the user to wait until the execution is complete. If the user prefers to use --nowait or if the connection is lost during execution, they lose the ability to retrieve the outputs. This pull request begins to introduce support for downloading outputs after the invocation has finished, regardless of when or how it completes.
The current implementation has a major limitation: the user must provide the history_id and workflow_id in addition to the invocation_id. While it’s possible to fetch invocation details using the invocation_id, the response only includes encoded versions of history_id and workflow_id, which cannot be used directly. I'm not sure how to decode these values—any guidance or pointers would be appreciated.
