A developer is experimenting with a Koog 1.0 agent that triages issues. They want to run the agent up to a specific decision point, then try two different follow-up inputs from that exact same state — measure both outcomes side-by-side — without paying for the full prefix twice.
They named the desired behavior: "save the agent's state at this point, then run two branches from it." They are not asking for crash-recovery; they want explicit save points they control from code.
Walk through what to install and how to fork. Produce the relevant code snippet — the install, the snapshot call inside a node body, and the two runFromSnapshot calls — as a single response, labeled.
