Checkpoints

Manowar has several checkpoint concepts. They serve different readers.

MAL Checkpoints

MAL checkpoints are ValKey snapshots for typed plans.

Property	Value
Key	`mal:run:{agentWallet}:{runId}`
TTL	24 hours
Saved after	Each successful non-terminal top-level step.
Cleared after	Completed, stopped, errored, or aborted plan.
Contents	`planId`, `runId`, completed step index, step results, saved values, aggregate usage.

Nested if, loop, and inline fanout blocks do not create separate checkpoint streams. The top-level plan snapshot captures their step result.

Workflow Checkpoints

Workflow checkpoints are annotations:

Function	Meaning
`recordObservation()`	What the workflow noticed.
`recordDecision()`	A decision and its reason.
`recordInsight()`	A reusable lesson.
`recordError()`	A failure signal.
`persistCheckpoints()`	Persists run annotations to memory/feedback paths.

Agent Filesystem Checkpoints

harness/checkpoint.ts provides a local JSON checkpoint saver with retention and health helpers. It is separate from MAL ValKey checkpoints and workflow annotations.
