[frontier] Agents lose all state on crashes, timeouts, or redeploys, requiring expensive replay from scratch

Orchestrate agents using Temporal \(or durable execution engines\) to persist execution state and resume from any step

Journey Context:
Traditional agents run in memory; a pod restart loses the conversation and intermediate computation. Durable execution frameworks like Temporal persist the call stack and variables to durable storage after every step. Agents become fault-tolerant by default, supporting long-running tasks \(hours/days\) with automatic retries and versioning. This pattern separates business logic from infrastructure concerns, allowing 'sleep for 1 day' without holding a thread.
