Durable Execution

Can I migrate existing retry and timeout logic from another durable execution system to Catalyst?

Yes, Catalyst uses Dapr Workflow's retry and timeout policies, which are conceptually similar to Temporal or AWS Step Functions. You map existing retry policies (max attempts, backoff) to Dapr's RetryPolicy configuration. Timeouts map to workflow or activity timeout settings. Compensation logic must be reimplemented as separate Dapr activities. Catalyst's framework-agnostic runner lets you keep your agent code unchanged while adapting orchestration.
