resonate-external-system-of-record-pattern-java

resonate-external-system-of-record-pattern-java is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from resonatehq/resonate-skills. It costs 114 tokens per session (2,818 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A Java workflow pattern for coordinating with an outside database, ledger, or service that owns the official record.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps safely read from and write to external systems by recording each interaction and using the outside system's safeguards against duplicate updates.
Why use it?
It reduces duplicate or inconsistent updates when work is retried after a failure, without requiring one transaction to control every system involved.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

resonate-external-system-of-record-pattern-java scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 11d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Resonate External System of Record Pattern — Java

Prerelease note. resonate-sdk-java is published on Maven Central — pin io.resonatehq:resonate-sdk-java:0.1.1. The API mirrors the Python SDK and may change before a stable 1.0. Requires Java 21+ (virtual threads, a feature generally available in Java 21). There is no Java system-of-record example repo yet, so every code block here uses only documented SDK surface, compile-verified against 0.1.1 and cross-checked against develop/java.mdx (docs PR #230) and the SDK source.

Overview

For the language-agnostic framing and the "Write Last, Read First" mental model, see resonate-external-system-of-record-pattern-typescript. This skill translates that model to idiomatic Java: ctx.run-based checkpointing, type-keyed dependency injection for the external client, and idempotency keys derived from the durable execution's stable ID.

The core contract is simple: one system owns the truth. Resonate coordinates the workflow and guarantees at-least-once execution; the external system enforces consistency through its own primitives — idempotency keys, upserts, conditional writes, ledger deduplication.

When to use

  • A Resonate workflow must create, update, or read from a database, payment processor, ledger, or any external store that has its own durability.
  • You need multi-step operations (reserve → charge → record) to be safe to retry without double-writes.
  • You cannot use distributed transactions across Resonate's promise store and the external system.

Do not use this pattern when all writes live inside a single ACID transaction scope — use the transaction directly.

The replay principle — wrap every SoR call in ctx.run

Whenever a workflow suspends and resumes (after a ctx.sleep, a remote ctx.rpc, or a pending ctx.promise), the entire workflow body re-executes from the top. Durable child promises short-circuit steps that already settled — the external call is not re-fired, and the stored result is returned directly. But any external call NOT wrapped in a ctx.run will execute again on every replay, producing double-writes.

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
