Hi, I’m Melanie I work at Temporal building and demoing AI agents with durable execution. Connect with me on LinkedIn and GitHub.

Temporal is an open-source platform for durable execution — your code automatically survives crashes, outages, and restarts, which makes it a natural fit for AI agents that need to reliably run long, multi-step, failure-prone work like LLM calls, tool use, and human-in-the-loop approvals.

💡 Tip: Temporal publishes agent skills that any AI coding agent (Claude Code, Codex, Cline, etc.) can use to build, debug, and review Temporal applications — try npx skills add https://github.com/temporalio/skill-temporal-developer.

Agent Memory & State

A teaching demo on the difference between agent memory (what the agent knows) and execution state (where the work stands). The same refund agent runs twice: without durable execution, a restart recovers its memory but not its progress and it refunds twice; rebuilt on Temporal, execution state survives the crash and the refund lands exactly once, with human-in-the-loop approval for the big ones.

Rust Confessional

A durable AI agent in Rust, live on stage: the audience confesses their programming sins, and Ferris the agent plans a response, consults the remedy catalog, and delivers judgment — surviving rate limits, network partitions, and Worker crashes mid-absolution. Rust makes the agent loop explicit; Temporal makes its progress survive.

Durable Human-in-the-Loop Agents

Durable, framework-agnostic human-in-the-loop (HITL) patterns for agents — letting agents pause for human input and reliably pick back up, no matter how long the wait or which framework you use.
