Unlock with Full AccessThe challenge
The agent will repair failed document-ingestion jobs across regions. Its tools can retry work, remove partial outputs and change customer-visible status, and a timeout does not guarantee that an action failed. Review the operating plan for risks around control and recovery, including what happens when an operator stops the run.
