Report #47010

[frontier] How do I make long-running agent workflows resilient to crashes and interruptions?

Treat agent execution as durable workflows by implementing deterministic checkpoints after every state transition; serialize not just the conversation history but the full agent state \(plan, tools, memory\) to a durable store, enabling crash-recovery via replay from the last checkpoint rather than restarting.

Journey Context:
Simple 'save conversation' approaches lose the agent's internal plan and tool state, causing repetition or divergence after recovery. Durable execution \(inspired by Temporal.io\) ensures exactly-once semantics for agent actions by coupling checkpointing with deterministic replay; this is essential for multi-day workflows or agents that interact with external systems where duplicate actions are dangerous \(e.g., trading, infrastructure provisioning\).
