resonate-migrate-from-dbos

resonate-migrate-from-dbos is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from resonatehq/resonate-skills. It costs 119 tokens per session (4,044 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A pattern-by-pattern guide for moving a DBOS application to Resonate. DBOS is a workflow platform, while Resonate is another platform for running recoverable workflows.

In plain words
What is it for?
Migrating workflows, steps, queues, messaging, event handling, delays, scheduled jobs, child workflows, and compensation logic.
Why use it?
It maps common DBOS features to Resonate while warning against unsupported assumptions and version-specific mistakes.

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-migrate-from-dbos 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 12d 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.

Migrate from DBOS to Resonate

A pattern-by-pattern playbook for porting a DBOS application to Resonate. Identify which DBOS construct each piece of the source uses, apply the matching transform, and reach for the linked per-SDK skill for idiomatic target code.

Ground rules

  • Never invent DBOS code. Quote it from the user's source or a named dbos-inc/dbos-demo-apps / dbos-transact-* file. If you can't find it, say so.
  • DBOS has SDKs for TypeScript, Python, Go, and Java — but no Rust SDK. Don't emit DBOS Rust. When migrating to Resonate Rust, map from the DBOS Python or TypeScript idiom.
  • Resonate has no @DBOS.workflow/@DBOS.step split. A step is just a function made durable by ctx.run. Don't invent decorators or a step type.
  • A DBOS workflow must be deterministic — side effects live in steps. The same discipline carries to Resonate: do side-effecting work inside ctx.run so it is checkpointed, not re-executed on replay.
  • State coverage honestly. A missing example ≠ impossible; it means no worked reference exists yet.
  • Verify APIs against the pinned version before emitting — both the DBOS and Resonate SDK surfaces drift between versions.

Pinned SDK versions (latest released at time of writing)

SDK Resonate (target) DBOS (source)
TypeScript @resonatehq/sdk v0.11.4 (npm) @dbos-inc/dbos-sdk v4.19.8 (npm)
Python resonate-sdk v0.7.4 (PyPI) dbos v2.23.0 (PyPI)
Rust resonate-sdk v0.6.0 (crates.io) — (no DBOS Rust SDK)
Go 0.1.0 (tag has no v prefix — go get github.com/resonatehq/[email protected]) dbos-transact-golang v0.17.0

Core mappings (apply everywhere)

DBOS Resonate
@DBOS.workflow() / DBOS.registerWorkflow(fn) / dbos.RegisterWorkflow(ctx, fn) a registered function (@resonate.register, resonate.register("name", fn), #[resonate::function], resonate.Register(r, "name", fn))
@DBOS.step() / DBOS.runStep(fn) / dbos.RunAsStep(ctx, fn) a plain function invoked via ctx.run(fn, args)
DBOS.start_workflow(fn, ...) / DBOS.startWorkflow(fn)(...) / dbos.RunWorkflow(ctx, fn, args) (child workflow) ctx.rpc("name", args) or ctx.run(fn, args) — invoke by registered name; recursion is trivial
durable queue: DBOS.register_queue + DBOS.enqueue_workflow(...) then handle.get_result() (fan-out) start each non-blocking (ctx.beginRun / ctx.rfi / .spawn() / ctx.RPC), then await each
DBOS.recv(topic, timeout) (block for a message) one latent durable promise: p = ctx.promise() then await p
DBOS.send(destId, msg, topic) (deliver from outside) resonate.promises.resolve(id, value) (HTTP-addressable from anywhere)
DBOS.set_event(key, value) / DBOS.get_event(wfId, key) (publish/read status) the promise's own resolved value is the status; read it by id
DBOS.sleep(...) ctx.sleep(duration)
@DBOS.scheduled(cron) / DBOS.create_schedule(...) / dbos.WithSchedule(cron) resonate.schedule(id, cron, fn) (ts/rust) or resonate.schedules.create(...) (py)
try/except + explicit undo step (no saga DSL) inline ctx.run(undo, …) in the error branch, guarded by what completed
systemDatabaseUrl Postgres (or Python SQLite default) nothing — the Worker runs in-memory until you connect a Resonate Server

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.
