- Write checkpoint payloads to a hidden sibling staging directory, add a versioned checksum manifest, fsync the completed payload, and publish it with an atomic rename
- Republishing an existing step retires the old payload under a hidden sibling name before the atomic rename, so re-runs into the same output directory replace the previous checkpoint instead of raising FileExistsError
- Keep legacy checkpoints loadable, add optional checksum verification, and align metric flushing with checkpoint publication
