Durable Execution
Can I migrate an existing cron-based agent scheduler to durable execution without rewriting everything?
Yes, you can wrap your existing cron-triggered logic into a durable workflow step. Replace the cron trigger with a workflow start event, then use Catalyst's durable execution to manage retries and state. Your agent framework code remains unchanged; only the orchestration layer shifts from stateless scheduling to stateful recovery.
