Cold-start numbers are narrative targets — benchmark before publishing SLAs.
When agents need sharper granularity than persistent cells.
Overall: some workloads are bursty—paying for a 24/7 cell is wrong. This product: short-lived executions with fine-grained receipts (storyline) for MCP toolchains that fan out across ephemeral tenants.
Queues stay wallet-aware: functions inherit the same intents as long-running workloads, so finance teams reconcile one taxonomy.
- Warm pools sized by forecasted MCP churn
- Automatic scale-to-zero plus honest idle billing taper
- Interop with claws Postgres + blobs for side-channel IO
