A 30-second Temporal poll replaces six idle GitHub runners with one-job Nomad dispatches

One homelab operator's Temporal workflow polls GitHub every 30 seconds and dispatches one-job Nomad runners, retiring six idle per-repo runners. Each runner stays bound to one repo, but code now mints the tokens and capacity is reserved only while a job runs.

MCP's stateless core moves a 30-minute approval pause into your database

40,000 inventory updates outlive the 900-second cron runner that retries them

A dev.to walkthrough puts the hard part of background job retries in recovery semantics. The test it sets is whether a restarted worker can tell finished work from work it merely fetched. The queue's own limits are narrow.

Temporal's determinism rule forces the three-day wait out of your Laravel job class

A dev.to walkthrough hands a seven-day onboarding flow to a workflow engine on port 7233. The install is two lines; the part that reshapes your code is the rule that the orchestrator may never touch Eloquent.
