Implement saga patterns for distributed transactions and cross-aggregate workflows.

  • Works in 2 steps: Saga Types → Saga Execution States

  • SKILL.md covers Do not use this skill when, Instructions, Use this skill when and Core Concepts, plus 3 more sections
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Saga Orchestration is an agent skill from aiskillstore/marketplace. Implement saga patterns for distributed transactions and cross-aggregate workflows. Use when coordinating multi-step business processes, handling compensating transactions, or managing long-running workflows.

Its SKILL.md is about 4k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 3 other files (for example `resources/implementation-playbook.md` and `skill-report.json`).

It sits in Backend & APIs, covering Microservices. The repository describes itself as: Security-audited skills for Claude, Codex & Claude Code. One-click install, quality verified.

When your agent uses it

  • Coordinating multi-step business processes
  • Handling compensating transactions
  • Managing long-running workflows

Example prompts

  • “/saga-orchestration”

Requirements

  • Python 3

Workflow steps

2 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Saga Types
  2. Saga Execution States

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 44923f3. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are python).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • microservices.io
    • dataintensive.net

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Saga Orchestration loads about 4k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 57 tokens; SKILL.md has 205 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~57
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~4k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 205 words (~4,002 tokens).

“Patterns for managing distributed transactions and long-running business processes.”
