temporal

temporal is a skill for Claude Code from rube-de/cc-skills. It costs 36 tokens per session (1,205 once invoked), scanned C, original, MIT.

A developer guide for Temporal, a platform that runs workflows reliably and resumes them after failures or interruptions. It covers the command-line tool, SDKs for Go, TypeScript, Python, and Java, workflow design, and architecture.

In plain words
What is it for?
Starting and inspecting workflows, using Temporal SDKs, running workers and activities, and designing workflow orchestration.
Why use it?
It helps developers understand Temporal’s tools and patterns when building long-running or failure-resistant processes.

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 C, and why

temporal scanned grade C with 2 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 7d 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.

Temporal Durable Execution

Comprehensive assistance for the Temporal durable execution platform: CLI operations, SDK development across Go/TypeScript/Python/Java, workflow design, and architectural decisions.

Triggers

Use this skill when the user mentions: "temporal", "durable execution", "workflow orchestration", "temporal cli", "temporal sdk", "temporal worker", "temporal activity", "temporal workflow", "temporal schedule", "temporal signal", "temporal query".

Quick Start

Local Development Server

# Install CLI
brew install temporal    # macOS
curl -sSf https://temporal.download/cli | sh  # Linux

# Start local dev server (with Web UI at localhost:8233)
temporal server start-dev

# Start with persistent storage
temporal server start-dev --db-filename temporal.db

First Workflow (TypeScript example)

npm init -y
npm install @temporalio/client @temporalio/worker @temporalio/workflow @temporalio/activity

Common Tasks by Intent

Developer wants to... Action
Start a workflow temporal workflow start --type MyWorkflow --task-queue my-queue --input '{"key":"val"}'
Check workflow status temporal workflow describe -w <workflow-id>
View event history temporal workflow show -w <workflow-id>
Cancel a workflow temporal workflow cancel -w <workflow-id>
Send a signal temporal workflow signal -w <workflow-id> --name signal-name --input '{"data":true}'
Query workflow state temporal workflow query -w <workflow-id> --name query-name
List running workflows temporal workflow list
Debug stuck workflow Check history with temporal workflow show, look for pending activities
Set up scheduled runs temporal schedule create --schedule-id my-sched --cron '0 * * * *' ...
Test workflows Use SDK test utilities with time-skipping and activity mocking

When to Use Temporal

Good fit:

  • Multi-step processes that must complete reliably (order processing, onboarding)
  • Saga patterns across microservices (distributed transactions)
  • Long-running workflows (days, weeks, months)
  • Scheduled/cron jobs with complex logic
  • Human-in-the-loop approval workflows

What ships with it

3 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

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.

temporal is a skill published in the GitHub repository rube-de/cc-skills (10 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 36 tokens to every session and 1,205 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it C with 2 findings (downloads and executes remote code, makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
