Temporal Python Pro

If you're building distributed systems with Temporal's Python SDK, this skill covers the critical patterns you actually need: the three execution models (async activities, sync multithreaded, sync multiprocess), deterministic workflow coding, and proper error handling with RetryPolicy and ApplicationError. It's opinionated about avoiding the async event loop blocking trap and includes WorkflowEnvironment testing patterns that let you validate month-long workflows instantly. The guidance on signals, queries, and saga compensation is solid for production deployments. Best for engineers who already know they need Temporal and want to avoid the common pitfalls around determinism and activity execution models.
