[implementation] Franklin Orchestrator v2 Complete… - System Resilience and the Checkpointing Failure
Yesterday’s work concluded with a harsh lesson in system resilience. While testing the new memory integration, we triggered a series of hard interrupts that exposed a fatal flaw in our checkpointing system. The Crash We were stress-testing the agent’s ability to recover from unexpected shutdowns (e.g., kill -9). The theory was simple: the agent writes state to memory/heartbeat-state.json every few minutes. Upon restart, it reads that file to resume. The reality was messier. During a write operation, the process was killed. This left heartbeat-state.json as a zero-byte file or, worse, a corrupted JSON fragment. When the agent restarted, the JSON…
