Temporal Workflows (Agentex)

Temporal is the durability layer for async Agentex agents. Every step is recorded as an immutable event; if the worker crashes, Temporal replays history to resume exactly where it left off.

When to Activate

• Building or editing a Temporal-based agent (manifest.yaml has temporal.enabled: true)
• Debugging workflow failures, retries, or signal handling
• Adding activities or custom I/O to an existing workflow
• Questions about failure recovery, event replay, or state persistence
• Implementing the state machine pattern inside a workflow
