View calls on chainCall Workflow
This diagram shows the call execution flow: starting with force_exit, passing through validation
(signature, nonce, mortality, fee payment), then pre-dispatch checks, followed by dispatch which emits events: Exited and modifies storage: EnteredUntil, and finally post-dispatch where ExtrinsicSuccess is emitted and fees are settled.

The Big Picture
Safe-mode auto-exits when EnteredUntil block is reached, but governance can end it early to minimize disruption once a threat is resolved.
Use Cases
- End safe-mode early once threat is mitigated
- Resume normal operations after fix is deployed
From Chain Metadata
Exit safe-mode by force. Emits an [`Event::Exited`] with [`ExitReason::Force`] event on success. Errors with [`Error::Exited`] if the safe-mode is inactive. Note: `safe-mode` will be automatically deactivated by [`Pallet::on_initialize`] hook after the block height is greater than the [`EnteredUntil`] storage item. Emits an [`Event::Exited`] with [`ExitReason::Timeout`] event when deactivated in the hook.
This call takes no parameters.
