Is there a way to test Temporal workflows locally?

Yes, the skill includes templates for using Temporal's WorkflowEnvironment and pytest to run full-stack integration tests for your workflows.

What is the difference between a Workflow and an Activity?

Workflows manage the orchestration logic and state (must be deterministic), while Activities handle the actual I/O, network calls, and side effects.

Can I use non-deterministic code like random or datetime.now() in workflows?

No, workflows must be deterministic for replayability. You should use provided Temporal APIs like workflow.now() or workflow.random() to ensure consistency.

What is Temporal.io used for in Claude Code?

It is used to build resilient, long-running workflows that can survive failures, managing state, retries, and timeouts automatically.

How does this skill handle distributed transactions?

It provides implementation patterns for the Saga pattern, allowing you to define specific compensation activities that trigger if a subsequent step in a transaction fails.

Desarrollo de API

Orchestrates durable, fault-tolerant distributed applications using Temporal.io for complex, long-running business processes.

The Temporal.io skill enables developers to implement resilient, long-running workflows and microservice orchestration with exactly-once execution guarantees. It provides production-ready patterns for handling saga patterns, compensation logic, and complex state machines while ensuring fault tolerance through durable execution. By providing standardized templates for Python-based workflows, activities, and workers, it helps Claude Code users build robust systems that can survive process failures and network partitions without losing state.
