Weekly Topic Challenge LAUNCH!

Welcome to the first Orkes Weekly Challenge!

Each week we’ll focus on one topic in workflow orchestration, ai agents, or agentic workflows. You can ask questions, share tips, or show off your own workflows — all skill levels welcome :hugs:

:magnifying_glass_tilted_left: This week’s topic: Workflows Getting Stuck/Not Advancing

:light_bulb: Ways to participate (a few examples):

  • Ask a question about how to debug workflows that are stuck in “RUNNING” state
  • Share how you’ve used task timeouts or workflow timeouts to prevent hanging
  • Post a snippet or JSON config from a workflow that implements proper task monitoring
  • Reply to someone else’s post with debugging tips or solutions

:trophy: The most engaged with posts will be highlighted in Friday’s wrap-up — and you might earn a shiny new badge!

Let’s do this. :backhand_index_pointing_down: Drop your first question or tip below, or start a new post and tag it with #weekly-challenge.

I’ve been wondering about how to deal with workflows stuck in the running state - hoping someone chimes in

@meldl2 , how’ve you dealt with them in the past? I’ve got to imagine it’s not super uncommon.

How ave you been monitoring your workflows? What type of observability do are you making use of?
