Fix: Add sort parameter to checkpoint query for deterministic retrieval#68
Conversation
Add sort parameter to SearchObjects call in process-events function to ensure the most recent checkpoint is always retrieved when multiple checkpoints exist for the same workflow_id. Without sorting by last_processed_timestamp in descending order, the API could return any matching record, leading to: - Processing stale checkpoint data - Reprocessing already-handled events - Unpredictable behavior in production workflows Changes: - Add sort="last_processed_timestamp.desc" parameter to SearchObjects - Update comment to clarify intent - Maintain pylint compliance with proper formatting The last_processed_timestamp field is indexed in the processing_checkpoints collection schema, making this sort operation efficient.
