Temporal Browserbase

Browserbase describes a browser workflow that can retry a failed step without restarting the entire task. Its integration with Temporal, a workflow execution platform, divides a browser search into separate activities such as opening a session, submitting a query and extracting results. Temporal records workflow progress and applies retry policies to those activities. Integration walkthrough.

Safe recovery still depends on how each activity is written. The article requires activities to tolerate being called again without unintended side effects, such as cleanup handling a session that is already closed. That requirement connects durable execution to browser behavior: a retry mechanism needs repeatable steps to recover safely. The article's walkthrough is a simple search example, and its larger use cases are presented as extensions of the same pattern. Activity design.
