SUMMARY

What it does

This skill provides guidance on implementing saga patterns for distributed transactions and cross-aggregate workflows. It covers defining sagas with ordered steps, action commands, and compensation commands; implementing orchestrator or choreography patterns; designing idempotent compensation logic; configuring per-step timeouts; and setting up monitoring for state machine metrics, stuck saga detection, and DLQ recovery. The skill includes best practices, troubleshooting guidance for common issues like stuck compensation states and duplicate executions, and references to advanced patterns for production-grade implementations.
