What the source says
Temporal is a durable execution platform for coordinating application workflows, including AI agent tasks, with persisted progress and retries. It separates workflow coordination from the activities that call models, tools or other services. Developers still implement application behavior and operate workers; the orchestration service can be self-hosted or managed through Temporal Cloud.
