Smart approach to graceful agent shutdown and state preservation
The don't-panic framing is clever but the underlying protocol is solid: checkpoint state before risky operations, emit structured shutdown signals, preserve enough context for a cold restart to succeed. The distinction between planned and unplanned shutdowns (and handling each differently) is the key insight. Docked a star because the recovery testing section is thin — it describes what to preserve but doesn't give you a way to verify your recovery actually works until something goes wrong in prod.
