What this post added

This post details the integration of Temporal's Durable Execution with OpenAI's Agents SDK to provide fault-tolerant execution for sandbox agents. It introduces an `AgentWorkflow` that wraps the `SandboxAgent` to persist state and idle efficiently, a `SessionManagerWorkflow` for orchestrating agent sessions, and a TUI for client interaction. Key technical contributions include the use of `workflow.wait_condition` for durable idling, forking workflows across different sandbox backends by snapshotting state, and wrapping sandbox operations as Temporal activities via `temporal_sandbox_client`.
