upstash/workflow TypeScript SDK Skill

You can build reliable serverless workflows by using a TypeScript SDK to define workflow endpoints and execute individual steps with built-in retry mechanisms and error handling. This abstracts away infrastructure concerns and provides delivery guarantees.

To define and serve serverless workflow endpoints, install the TypeScript SDK and use the `serve` method to easily expose your serverless functions. This enables you to quickly set up reliable function execution without manual infrastructure management.

Yes, you can manage and inspect running serverless workflows programmatically by using the provided workflow client. It enables you to trigger new runs, cancel existing executions, and inspect workflow statuses for management purposes.

Yes, the TypeScript workflow SDK handles step failures and automatic retries through its reliable step execution mechanism. Individual steps run with built-in retry mechanisms and error handling to ensure delivery guarantees.

A good use case for orchestrating reliable serverless functions is building an order processing system. Each step, such as payment, inventory update, and shipping notification, becomes a reliable workflow step that automatically retries on failure.

Advanced flow control features for serverless orchestration include invocation management and context API interactions. These features allow you to manage execution flow, interact with the workflow client, and handle complex orchestration scenarios.
