In what scenarios is Inngest’s event-driven model a more natural fit than Catalyst for AI agent workflows that rely heavily on external triggers?

Inngest excels when agent workflows are primarily reactive, driven by webhooks or scheduled events, due to its native event-based routing and declarative step functions. It auto-parallelizes steps triggered by events and provides built-in retry policies per step. However, for complex stateful agent interactions that blend deterministic and probabilistic logic, Catalyst’s durable execution model offers more predictable recovery from partial failures.
