The `DurableTask` worker status path looked up durable event log entries by a caller-supplied task UUID with no tenant filter, so a holder of any tenant's token who knew another tenant's task UUID could read its entries. The advisory names Hatchet Cloud as affected and calls exploitation very unlikely because the IDs are random UUIDs. Fixed in 0.106.1. It is the event log this listing is graded on, so 2 points for a fixed path. https://github.com/hatchet-dev/hatchet/security/advisories/GHSA-992g-9cr3-vm5x (read through https://api.osv.dev/v1/vulns/GHSA-992g-9cr3-vm5x)",

Hatchet supplies only the pause and resume. It has no approver inbox, notification channel or record of who answered, and its MCP server cannot push the event.\n\n**Restate.** An awakeable pauses a handler at no compute cost and resumes it from one HTTP request, with a durable timeout, on a free plan of 100,000 actions a month. Restate sends nothing to the approver, so the Slack message, email or inbox is the builder's code, and the published terms and privacy statement predate the paid plans.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Hatchet\n\n1. Put the approval wait in a durable task, and keep API calls, database reads and random values in child tasks, because the code between checkpoints is replayed\n2. Add a sleep condition in the same or group as the event condition to set a deadline, and treat the sleep firing first as a timeout\n3. Give the event a scope and the wait a lookback window when the answer can arrive before the wait starts. Both must be set together\n4. Filter with a CEL expression such as `input.user_id == '1234'` so one approval key cannot resume another request's task\n5. Push the answer with the SDK's event push or `POST /api/v1/tenants/{tenant}/events`. The MCP server has no tool for it\n6. Grant the MCP server one profile with `hatchet mcp auth --grant \u003cprofile\u003e`. It refuses profiles that were not granted\n\n### Restate\n\n1. Create the awakeable, send its ID inside `ctx.run`, then await the promise, so a retry doesn't send a second approval request\n2. Resolve with `POST /restate/awakeables/\u003cid\u003e/resolve` and a JSON body, or `/reject` with a text reason, which throws a terminal error in the handler\n3. On Restate Cloud send `Authorization: Bearer key_...` to `https://\u003cenv_id\u003e.env.\u003cregion\u003e.restate.cloud:8080`. On a self-hosted server put an authenticating proxy in front of port 8080\n4. Wrap the wait in `orTimeout` and decide what a timeout means. Without it the handler waits with no limit\n5. Retry ingress errors only on 408, 425, 429 or 5xx, and only when `x-restate-error-source` isn't `invocation`\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Hatchet or Restate?\n\nRestate scores 73.3 (BB) on agent readiness against Hatchet's 68.3 (B), and leads in 2 of 7 scored categories. Hatchet leads on transparency \u0026 trust.\n\n### Are Hatchet and Restate open source?\n\nHatchet is open source (MIT).
