How does this skill handle distributed transactions?

It implements the Saga pattern, which allows for compensating actions (rollbacks) to be registered and executed in reverse order if a multi-step process fails.

Can this skill help with existing workflow migrations?

Yes, it provides versioning strategies and backward compatibility patterns to help update workflow code without breaking currently running executions.

What is the difference between a workflow and an activity in this context?

Workflows handle the orchestration logic and must be deterministic, while activities handle external interactions like API calls and database writes.

What is the primary focus of this Claude Code skill?

This skill focuses on designing durable, long-running distributed processes using Temporal orchestration principles, ensuring systems can survive infrastructure failures.

API 开发

Designs and implements durable, fault-tolerant distributed systems using Temporal orchestration patterns and Saga transaction logic.

关于

This skill equips Claude with the architectural expertise to build resilient distributed systems using Temporal. It provides comprehensive guidance on separating orchestration logic from external interactions, implementing the Saga pattern for distributed transactions, and managing workflow state. Whether you are building complex e-commerce checkout flows, long-running infrastructure automation, or human-in-the-loop approval systems, this skill ensures your backend services are deterministic, idempotent, and capable of automatic recovery from infrastructure failures.
