[Feature]: Task Pause/Resume

Feature: Task Pause/Resume

What

Add ability to pause and resume running tasks in Bindu.

Why

Long-running AI agent tasks need a way to:

• Temporarily stop execution to free resources
• Resume from where it left off

How

Pause:

• Save task state/metadata/context as checkpoint
• Update task to "suspended" state

Resume:

• Load checkpoint from storage
• Restore context
• Update task to "resumed" state

Rules:

• Can only pause tasks in "working" state
• Can only resume tasks in "suspended" state
• Cannot pause/resume completed, canceled, or failed tasks

Files

• bindu/server/workers/base.py - Implement pause/resume handlers
• bindu/server/scheduler/base.py - Abstract methods (already exist)

looks like we can implement the pause/resume feature by adding a new state machine to the task lifecycle, with abstract methods in bindu/server/scheduler/base.py and concrete implementations in bindu/server/workers/base.py. we can use a checkpointing library like tensorflow's tf.train.Checkpoint to save and load task state. should i open a PR for this?

Do you guys work on the feature if yes what's the status?

Oops, let me use the weekend to raise the PR
