About Temporal

Temporal executes application logic as Workflows that survive intermittent failures and automatically retry failed operations, letting developers write reliable, scalable long-running processes in ordinary code. It originated as a fork of Uber's Cadence and is developed by Temporal Technologies. Some agent frameworks, such as mcp-agent, build durable, resumable agent runs on it.

Temporal is an open-source project written primarily in Go, with 23k stars on GitHub. It was last updated in September 2026.
