Agent memory and state

Kill a refund agent mid-task, once without Temporal and once with it, to see where context, memory, and state live and which survive a crash.

Approval Pattern

Human-in-the-loop Workflows that block until external approval decisions are made. Uses Signals to capture approval data with metadata.

Delayed Callback (Webhooks)

Webhooks become durable: inbound calls arrive as Signals, outbound calls fire after a durable sleep, and Activities complete later via task tokens.

Event Accumulator Pattern

Durably collect and deduplicate signals from multiple senders, then process the batch after a sliding inactivity timeout.

Signal with Start Pattern

Starts a Workflow when Signaling it if it does not already exist. If already running, it receives the Signal directly.

Workflow message passing

Develop with Signals, Queries, and Updates in Temporal Workflows. Define, handle, and send Signals or Queries, and validate updates from a Temporal Client.

Workflow message passing

Signals write to a running Workflow without waiting, Queries read its current state, and Updates do both and return a result to the caller.
