Term Definition
Durable Execution
A programming paradigm where code execution is guaranteed to complete in the face of crashes, network failures, or reboots.
Full Explanation
Pioneered by systems like Temporal, durable execution ensures that a function's progress is tracked. StateBase applies this specifically to the non-deterministic world of LLMs, where 'steps' involve probabilistic reasoning and tool interactions.
Why it Matters
It makes AI agents as reliable as traditional backend workflows, enabling them to handle high-stakes business logic.
