Report #35140

[frontier] Agent state loss on container restart in production

Migrate from MemorySaver to PostgresSaver with async connection pooling for production LangGraph deployments

Journey Context:
Early prototypes use MemorySaver which loses state on restart. Production requires PostgresSaver \(or Redis/Cloud alternatives\). Critical 2025 pattern: use async checkpointer with connection pooling, not sync. Also: separate checkpoint DB from application DB to prevent blocking, and use thread\_id \+ checkpoint\_ns for multi-tenancy.
