Report #95581

[frontier] State loss and non-recoverable failures in long-running multi-step agent processes

Use event-sourced checkpointing with deterministic replay to serialize agent state after each step

Journey Context:
Agents crash mid-workflow losing hours of progress and accumulated context. Traditional database persistence is too coarse-grained for agent steps. Deterministic checkpointing serializes agent state and events after each tool call or reasoning step, enabling recovery from any point. This enables durable execution where agents resume exactly where they left off, even across different machines, and supports debugging by replaying execution traces.
