It emphasizes that these controls must remain reliable through crashes, timeouts, and retries, and presents Temporal Agent Harness as an execution-layer control point around an agent SDK. ### Source excerpt Auditing what an agent did is only half the job. Companies also have to control what agents may do, and make those limits hold when systems fail. ## Authentication is a long-running Workflow DevFeed: [Authentication is a long-running Workflow]() Original publisher: [Read original article]() Author: Mason Williams Published: 2026-09-15T00:00:00Z Content type: tutorial Language: en Sources: [Temporal Blog]() Topics: [Authentication](), [MFA](), [browser](), [Go Language](), [TypeScript](), [Deployment](), [push-notification](), [sessions](), [API]() Tags: [api](), [authentication](), [browser](), [community](), [deployment](), [go](), [mfa](), [push-notification](), [sessions](), [typescript]() ### AI overview This article explains how KERNEL models Managed Auth as a long-running Temporal workflow. A parent workflow maintains connection state, health checks, reauthentication, and cancellation, while child workflows handle individual login attempts with separate browsers, timeouts, and cleanup. Durable state stays in Go, and model-driven work runs in a dedicated TypeScript Worker. ### Source excerpt In this article# - A login is not a request - Model the connection, not the attempt - The human is part of the Workflow - Staying logged in is part of the product - Go owns durability; TypeScript runs the agent - What we learned 1. A login is not a request# An agent can enter a password, stop at an MFA prompt, wait for a person to approve a push notification, and then resume in the same browser. A deployment or Worker restart can happen anywhere in between. ## Pay only for what you use: introducing no spend minimums to Temporal Cloud DevFeed: [Pay only for what you use: introducing no spend minimums to Temporal Cloud]() Original publisher: [Read original article]() Author: Tlo Lorinc Published: 2026-09-14T00:00:00Z Content type: release Language: en Sources: [Temporal Blog]() Topics: [Cloud](), [cloud-infrastructure](), [App]() Tags: [announcements](), [billing](), [cloud](), [developer](), [pricing](), [sso](), [support]() ### AI overview Temporal introduces a Paygo offering for Temporal Cloud with no base monthly fee, usage-based pricing, Developer Support, and SAML SSO included.
