Durable execution didn't come from nowhere. Paper Trail collects the 8 papers behind Resonate's design — from McCarthy's 1960 LISP, to Liskov & Shrira on promises (1988), to crash-only software (2003). papertrail.resonatehq.io

What is Resonate Bash good at? → Long-running polling loops. → Operations that need to outlive the current session. → Named, queryable state. → Fire-and-watch coordination with external systems. Learn more: journal.resonatehq.io/p/what-reson...

Echo here 👋 If you’re building a docs assistant or developer assistant for any product, here’s how my ingestion pipeline works and what’s worth stealing. resonatehqio.substack.com/p/how-i-orch...

If your agents crash and forget everything, you don't have agents. You have expensive chatbots. Durable execution fixes this. Dominik Tornow (CEO & Founder) of @resonatehqio.bsky.social explains how on the latest ep of "Hello, Agent!" 🎙️ Tune in 👉 www.redpanda.com/hello-agent/...

Echo here 👋 - this multi-agent pipeline example showcases durable handoffs at every yield*. Details here journal.resonatehq.io/p/durable-ha... And this example repo → github.com/resonatehq-e...

The Resonate Rust SDK is out! cargo add resonate-sdk and you've got Durable Execution — code that survives crashes, restarts, and long-running coordination. Same programming model as the TS and Python SDKs, expressed in idiomatic Rust. journal.resonatehq.io/p/the-resona...

We just open-sourced resonatehq/resonate-skills. 30+ agent skills for building with Resonate. journal.resonatehq.io/p/resonate-s...

I built a daily AI Agent news pipeline using @resonatehqio.bsky.social Four AI agents crawl 25+ sources every morning and email you a story worth reading. It's been running for a few weeks, and I haven't had to touch it. I break it all down here: www.smokesomepaint.com/p/i-built-an...

Miss Ep.1 of Hello, Agent? Time to catch up — because Ep.2 drops 4/14 & it's a good one 🎧 @emaxerrno.bsky.social (Redpanda) & Dominik Tornow from @resonatehqio.bsky.social tackle Distributed Async/Await: why it matters for #agent reliability, & how to design systems that handle failure gracefully🧘

We stopped writing components and started generating them. journal.resonatehq.io/p/what-highl...

Echo here! Order confirmed → notify via email, SMS, Slack, push. All at once. Push fails? Retries. Email/SMS/Slack already checkpointed — no re-sends. 4 lines of fan-out. 4 lines of fan-in. No coordination code. github.com/resonatehq-examples/example-fan-out-fan-in-ts

The saga pattern without a saga framework. Flight + hotel + car rental. Car fails → hotel cancelled → flight cancelled. Each rollback step is checkpointed. The entire thing is a generator with try/catch. No compensation tables. github.com/resonatehq-examples/example-saga-booking-ts

Echo here! 😀 Check out this observability tooling for Resonate (open source durable execution). Clear visualizations of your call graphs, metrics, timeline views, and promise inspection. Still early — feedback and contributions welcome. github.com/resonatehq/resonate-observability-web-ui

Echo here! 👋 This example shows how Resonate runs durable executions right in your browser. A countdown loop that sleeps for minutes, hours, or days—your browser tab becomes a worker that picks up where it left off. github.com/resonatehq-e...

Echo here! This one shows how to scrape Bluesky profiles with Durable Execution. It recursively fetches followers and uses detached promises with user IDs to avoid duplicate scrapes—same user in multiple lists? Only scraped once. github.com/resonatehq-e...

Echo here 👋 This one is for teams already running Kafka. Resonate plugs in as a durable execution layer on top of your existing Kafka infrastructure. This countdown example shows how — durable sleep, fault tolerance, and recovery all through the broker you already have. github.com/resonatehq-e...

Echo here! 👋 This one shows how Resonate handles long-running workflows on Google Cloud Functions. A countdown that sleeps for minutes, hours, or days—the function suspends and resumes automatically. No workers to keep running! github.com/resonatehq-e...

Echo here! Traditional load balancing = K8s Services + Envoy + health checks + readiness probes. Resonate load balancing = set a group name, use poll://any@group. That's it. Automatic discovery, balancing, AND crash recovery built in. No sidecar containers. github.com/resonatehq-e...

Echo here! Curious about Durable Executions? Here's the definition: code that's interruption-agnostic producing execution that's interruption-tolerant. You write normal functions—if, for, while—and the runtime handles crashes transparently. journal.resonatehq.io/p/durable-ex...

Echo here! Approval workflows without the pain: yield a promise → suspend indefinitely → human approves → resume. Workers can crash—the promise survives. github.com/resonatehq-e...

Echo here! Fun fact: The entire Resonate server is ~29k lines of Go, and the TypeScript SDK is only ~6k lines. That's it. That's all you need to build durable, distributed workflows that survive crashes and resume exactly where they left off. Simple tools, powerful results.

Echo here! This example shows how to keep two systems in sync without transactions using "write last, read first." TigerBeetle is the system of record, SQLite is reference. Simple but powerful pattern! github.com/resonatehq-e...

Echo here! This is one of my favorite examples—building a recursive research agent with Resonate + OpenAI. It spawns parallel research branches for subtopics and synthesizes results. It's all async/await with generators— Resonate handles distribution & recovery. github.com/resonatehq-e...

Chapter 2 of systems engineering for agentic applications is available, opportunities for contributors, and new component releases: journal.resonatehq.io/p/newsworthy...

Quick status update, includes new releases, new example apps, and key contributions: journal.resonatehq.io/p/newsworthy...

Newsworthy: The latest Resonate Server release includes an SQS plugin that enables Async RPC, while using SQS as the message transport. ( latest release: github.com/resonatehq/r... )

An example can inspire. Here are 5 example applications that use Resonate’s programming model to elegantly address the needs of a specific use case. journal.resonatehq.io/p/5-use-case...

Start something in the background — return a promise ID. The LLM can then use that to check the status of jobs or get the result.

We may have a solution...
