The checkpoint and invariant model is a strong fit for these workflows. Having approval gates plus a replayable event log makes the agent's decisions much easier to audit than a simple end-to-end task API.

Exactly. We’ve found that for real production workflows, “did the task finish?” isn’t enough. You need to know what the agent saw, why it acted, what changed, and where a human approved something consequential.

The checkpoints and event log are really about making failures inspectable instead of mysterious.
