+# Temporal Server Deployment for Poimen Agent
+
+## Phase 1.1: Temporal Infrastructure
+
+This directory contains Kubernetes manifests for deploying Temporal Server with all required backends.
+
+### Components
+
+1. **PostgreSQL StatefulSet** (01-postgres-statefulset.yaml)
+   - Persistent storage for event log
+   - Two databases: `temporal` (events) + `temporal_visibility`
+   - PVC: 10Gi
+   - Health checks: liveness + readiness
+   - Port: 5432
+
+2. **Elasticsearch StatefulSet** (02-elasticsearch-statefulset.yaml)
+   - Search engine for workflow visibility
+   - Single-node cluster
+   - PVC: 20Gi
+   - Port: 9200 (HTTP), 9300 (transport)
+   - Health checks: HTTP GET /_cluster/health
+
+3. **Temporal Server StatefulSet** (03-temporal-server-statefulset.yaml)
+   - Main Temporal server instance
+   - Image: temporalio/auto-setup:1.20.0
+   - Services:
+     - Frontend: 7233 (gRPC)
+     - Matching: 7235 (internal)
+     - History: 7234 (internal)
+     - Worker: 7239 (internal)
+   - Headless service for StatefulSet communication
+   - ClusterIP service for worker connections
+
+4. **Temporal UI Deployment** (04-temporal-ui-deployment.yaml)
+   - Web UI for workflow visualization
+   - Image: temporalio/ui:2.10.0
+   - Connects to: temporal-frontend:7233
+   - Port: 3000 (internal), 3000 (external LoadBalancer)
+
+### Deployment
+
+```bash
+# Deploy all Temporal components
+kubectl apply -k k8s/temporal/
+
+# Wait for StatefulSets to be ready
+kubectl wait --for=condition=ready pod -l app=temporal-server -n temporal --timeout=300s
+
+# Verify deployment
+kubectl get all -n temporal
+
+# Port forward to Temporal UI
+kubectl port-forward -n temporal svc/temporal-ui-external 3000:3000
+# Access at http://localhost:3000
+```
+
+### Persistence
+
+- PostgreSQL: 10Gi PVC for event log + visibility
+- Elasticsearch: 20Gi PVC for search index
+- Both use dynamic provisioning (PersistentVolumeClaim)
+
+### Security Considerations
+
+1. PostgreSQL password in Secret: `temporal-postgres-secret`
+   - Default: "temporal-password-changeme"
+   - **Must be changed for production**
+   
+2. Elasticsearch security disabled (xpack.security.enabled: false)
+   - **Must be enabled for production**
+   
+3. Services use ClusterIP (internal only)
+   - Temporal UI exposed via LoadBalancer for demo
+   - **Should use Ingress for production**
+
+### Health Checks
+
+- PostgreSQL: `pg_isready` liveness + readiness
+- Elasticsearch: HTTP GET to /_cluster/health
+- Temporal Server: TCP socket probe to port 7233
+- Temporal UI: HTTP GET to / (port 8080)
+
+### Monitoring
+
+Temporal Server exports Prometheus metrics on port 9090:
+```bash
+kubectl port-forward -n temporal svc/temporal-server 9090:9090
+# Metrics available at http://localhost:9090/metrics
+```
+
+### Troubleshooting
+
+```bash
+# Check Temporal Server logs
+kubectl logs -n temporal -f statefulset/temporal-server
+
+# Check PostgreSQL logs
+kubectl logs -n temporal -f statefulset/temporal-postgres
+
+# Check Elasticsearch logs
+kubectl logs -n temporal -f statefulset/temporal-elasticsearch
+
+# Check Temporal UI logs

+# Debug connectivity
+kubectl run -it --rm debug --image=alpine --restart=Never -n temporal -- sh
+# Inside pod:
+# apk add postgresql-client
