Eager Workflow Start

This sample shows how to create a workflow that uses Eager Workflow Start.

The target use case is workflows whose first task needs to execute quickly (ex: payment verification in an online checkout workflow). That work typically can't be done directly in the workflow (ex: using web APIs, databases, etc.), and also needs to avoid the overhead of dispatching another task. Using a Local Activity suffices both needs, which this sample demonstrates.

You can read more about Eager Workflow Start in our:

• Eager Workflow Start blog
• Worker Performance Docs

To run, first see the main README.md for prerequisites.

Then run the sample via:

uv run eager_wf_start/run.py
