TLDR

Unifies streaming retry, recovery, and failover in packages/providers under one request-scoped budget with irreversible commitment semantics: once any output (including metadata) escapes a stream, the request is never replayed, credentials are never rotated for that request, and load-balancer failover stops — while all pre-exposure recovery (transient network, 429, 5xx, Anthropic HTTP-200 in-band overload, OAuth repair, bucket rotation, timeout) still works inside a single aggregate attempt budget.

Closes #2532

Dive Deeper

What changed (by layer)

One failure taxonomy (retryFailureTaxonomy.ts, 346 lines): RetryFailure { phase: connect|headers|stream|protocol|auth|tool|cancellation, kind: timeout|network|rate_limit|overload|server|auth|payment|malformed|truncated|invalid_request|cancelled|unknown, status?, retryAfterMs?, providerCode?, exposure, terminalSeen, cause } plus decodeRetryFailure(). All existing classification helpers (classifyRetryError, shouldRetryError, failover decisions, quota retryability) now delegate to this single source instead of each keeping its own vocabulary.

Request-scoped commit state (retryRequestContext.ts): the per-request context that already carried the transport budget now also carries an irreversible committed flag, monotonic exposure (none → metadata → content → tool_call), and terminalSeen. It is set immediately before every outward yield.

One guarded-stream primitive (guardedStream.ts): commits before each yield, marks post-yield failures terminal (preserving the existing WeakSet mark that the agents layer relies on for turn-level restarts — issue #3048 asymmetry intact), races the first chunk against a timeout, aborts + closes the losing iterator, and cleans up in finally. RetryOrchestrator.streamWithTimeout/yieldStreamUnprotected collapsed onto it; the LB wrapWithTimeout delegates to it (keeping RequestTimeoutError observability for metrics); the dead duplicate retryStreamTimeout.ts is deleted.

Commitment gates recovery (retryCommitGate.ts, orchestrator + LB): after commitment — no retry, no bucket failover, no LB same-backend retry or next-backend advance. Auth failures after commitment may invoke the auth handler once to repair for FUTURE requests but never replay this one. Metadata counts as exposure.

Anthropic terminal-event validation (AnthropicStreamProcessor.ts, streamProtocolErrors.ts): streams that end without message_stop now throw StreamTruncatedError (kind truncated) instead of committing as a successful turn; input_json_delta with no open tool block throws MalformedStreamEventError (kind malformed). Both retryable pre-exposure, terminal after. In-band HTTP-200 SSE errors (overloaded_error etc.) arrive as thrown SDK errors and decode through the taxonomy — retryable before output, never after. Tool pairing, dedup ids, and thinking-block identity semantics are unchanged (pinned by existing tests).

Budget + telemetry: AttemptEndInfo gained additive optional fields (failureKind, failurePhase, committed, exposure, budgetUsed, budgetLimit — no secrets). openai-vercel's SDK retries (default 2) are fenced as provider-owned transport attempts so they count against the same budget; Anthropic/OpenAI clients remain maxRetries: 0.

Architecture doc (dev-docs/providers/retry-recovery-architecture.md): assigns decoding (adapters), commitment/cleanup (guarded stream), recovery policy (orchestrator), target selection (LB), and documents SDK-retry accounting against the budget.

Preserved behaviors (regression-pinned)

Deviations from the mandated workflow

Implementation was planned for typescriptexpert subagent delegation but the subagent hit the configured 1800s runtime ceiling four times; phases 1–5 were therefore completed directly in the foreground with the same TDD, verification, and review gates. deepthinker review: 2/2 rounds (all findings fixed). Open Code Review: 2/2 rounds (6 + 2 findings, all fixed).

Reviewer Test Plan

  • cd packages/providers && bun run test (isolated per-file runner; 590/590 files pass).
  • Focused suites: bun test src/__tests__/retryFailureTaxonomy.test.ts src/__tests__/retryRequestCommitState.test.ts src/__tests__/guardedStream.behavior.test.ts src/__tests__/RetryOrchestrator.commitBoundary.bun.test.ts src/__tests__/LoadBalancingProvider.commitBoundary.test.ts src/anthropic/AnthropicStreamProcessor.terminalValidation.test.ts src/__tests__/attemptLifecycle.failureTaxonomy.test.ts
  • Behavioral spot-checks the new suites pin: partial text then network/429/5xx/overload → exactly one transport call; metadata-then-failure → no replay; first-chunk timeout → retry + losing iterator closed; EOF without message_stop → truncated error, not a silent success; LB partial output → no second backend.
  • Read dev-docs/providers/retry-recovery-architecture.md for the ownership model.

Testing Matrix

🍏 🪟 🐧
npm run
npx
Docker
Podman - -
Seatbelt - -

macOS (darwin): npm run test, npm run lint, npm run typecheck, npm run format, npm run build all exit 0 at the candidate head; providers isolated suite 590/590 files. Smoke test (bun scripts/start.ts --profile-load stepfun-37 "write me a haiku and nothing else") starts, makes exactly one API call, and fails fast with the provider's error: 400 you have no active step plan subscription — a known environmental limit of the StepFun key (no active subscription), identical before and after these changes; startup, profile loading, request routing, and non-retryable-error handling all behave correctly.

…2532)

Phase 1 of unifying streaming retry under one committed request
budget: shared failure taxonomy (phase/kind/exposure decode on top of
existing classification helpers) and per-request commit state
(committed/exposure/terminalSeen) riding the existing retry request
context alongside the transport budget.
Phase 2: guardStream now owns exposure marking (commit before every
outward yield), post-yield terminal error marking, first-chunk
timeout with losing-iterator cleanup, and abort handling for both
normal and timeout streams. RetryOrchestrator delegates to it and
drops its two private wrappers; the dead retryStreamTimeout.ts
duplicate is removed. Mid-race cancellation now rejects immediately
instead of waiting out the timeout window.
)

Phase 3a: handleRetryError now treats any failure on a committed
request as terminal via an explicit commit-state gate (the WeakSet
terminal mark remains the fast path), so no retry, backoff, or bucket
rotation can replay a request after metadata, text, thinking, or tool
output has escaped. Auth-kind failures after commitment run the auth
error handler once to repair future requests without replaying this
one. Adds the RetryOrchestrator.commitBoundary fence suite.
…shared commit boundary (#2532)

The load balancer previously owned a separate guarded-stream implementation
with its own exposure tracking and attempt-cancellation plumbing, so
post-output replay decisions relied on a local chunksYielded boolean that
only this layer could see.

wrapWithTimeout now delegates to the same guardStream primitive the
RetryOrchestrator uses: commitment is marked on the shared request context
before every outward chunk (metadata included), losing iterators are closed
on timeout/cancellation, and post-yield failures stay terminal. The failover
decision consults the shared commit state alongside the local yield box, so
a committed request never retries its backend or advances to the next one.
The unused AttemptCancellation seam was removed with it.

The dead duplicate retryStreamTimeout module was already deleted in the
prior phase; this completes the one-primitive goal for both live paths.
…retry taxonomy telemetry (#2532)

Anthropic streams that ended without message_stop were committed as
successful turns, hiding truncation from every recovery layer. The
processor now records terminal events on the shared request commit state
and throws a decoded truncated failure on EOF without one; deterministic
structural violations (input_json_delta with no open tool block) throw a
decoded malformed failure. Both kinds are retryable before exposure and
terminal after it, so partial output is never replayed (AC-06).

Attempt lifecycle telemetry now carries the issue 2532 taxonomy on every
raw attempt: failureKind/failurePhase, committed/exposure, and budget
used/limit, as additive optional AttemptEndInfo fields with no secrets
(AC-07). The new retry-recovery-architecture doc assigns decode, commit,
recovery, and failover ownership, and documents SDK-level retries against
the aggregate budget (Anthropic/OpenAI maxRetries 0; openai-vercel AI SDK
retries ride inside one budget unit, configurable via the retries
ephemeral) (AC-08).
…2532)

Lint and typecheck gates failed after the Phase 4/5 feature commits, so
this checkpoint keeps the unified retry work inside the repo's structural
limits without changing behavior:

- RetryOrchestrator: extract resolveTerminalStatus/finalizeAttempt/
  resolveCommittedFailureAction, and delete the private duplicates of
  shouldAttemptFailover/attemptBucketFailover in favor of the canonical
  pure functions in retryFailoverLogic.ts (the class copies had drifted
  into duplication the issue asks to eliminate). shouldFailoverNow moves
  there as a pure gate. File back under the 800 effective-line limit.
- AnthropicStreamProcessor: dispatch becomes an exhaustive switch with
  per-case apply* helpers (message_stop handled first), keeping the
  default case a no-op so runtime-only events like ping stay ignored.
- Tests: drop unnecessary optional chains; guardedStream empty-stream
  fixture uses `yield* []` to satisfy require-yield; block lookups use
  flatMap over blocks[0] indexing (metadata-only chunks have empty
  blocks arrays).

Verified: touched suites 107/107, package lint 0 errors, tsc clean; full
providers suite re-run in tmp/issue2532-verify/07-lintfix-providers.log.
#2532)

Deepthinker round-1 remediation. The taxonomy was shaped like a policy
layer but nothing consulted it: retryability still lived in a parallel
boolean lattice, provider codes were read from one position instead of
every position production errors use, and load-balancer backend attempts
reported no failure facts even though the orchestrator did.

- Retry-After header handling moves to retryAfterHeader.ts (capped,
  normalized) and retryability is decided by isRetryableFailure over the
  decoded taxonomy, so one mapping governs backoff, failover, and budget
  exhaustion. Timeout failures stay retryable only when they are genuine
  stream timeouts; quota 429s no longer masquerade as retryable.
- getProviderCode reads all eight envelope positions (Anthropic nested
  envelope, OpenAI code, Codex detail envelope, providerErrorType) with
  the 'error' sentinel filtered, matching quota classification.
- findRequestAttemptFacts exposes commit/exposure/budget facts from the
  shared request-context record; backendLifecycleNotifier decodes the
  attempt error and spreads failureKind/failurePhase/committed/exposure/
  budgetUsed/budgetLimit into backend AttemptEndInfo, so every layer
  reports the same taxonomy under the same aggregate budget.
… vercel retry fencing (#2532)

Remediation of the second design review round for the unified
request-budget architecture.

Why each change:
- guardedStream: race non-timeout reads against the attempt abort signal so
  an aborted request cannot hang on a silent iterator (review finding A).
- Retry-After decoding now reads real SDK error.headers (Fetch Headers)
  instead of only plain records; taxonomy precedence is provider identity
  first, so a 529 carrying overloaded_error decodes as overload (findings B,
  C).
- openai-vercel no longer hides HTTP retries under the budget: its transport
  is constructed with maxRetries 0 like the other bundled adapters, pinned
  by a new test (blocker finding E).
- The request budget now tracks cumulative recovery wait, visited targets,
  opaque credential digests, and an optional wall-clock deadline
  (retry-deadline-ms), all reported through attempt telemetry. Tracking
  shares the live-budget lifecycle: a nested context resolving while the
  budget is live observes the same record; a fresh context after release
  starts a new logical request (finding F).
- Load-balancer target policy now derives from the failure taxonomy: quota
  429s rotate targets while staying terminal for same-target retry,
  in-band overload becomes failover-eligible, and explicit operator
  overrides (failover_status_codes, failover_on_network_errors) still win.
  Bucket-eligibility flags project from one decode (findings D, G).
- Architecture doc updated: vercel is budget-fenced at zero, recovery
  accounting documented, and the two recovery scopes (same-target retry vs
  target/credential rotation) are spelled out (finding H).

Two precedence rules surfaced by full-suite characterization runs and pinned
with new taxonomy tests:
- Terminal status bands (401/403 auth, 402 payment, other 4xx
  invalid_request) outrank provider body codes: a 403 carrying api_error
  stays terminal auth (#2917) and a 404 carrying rate_limit_error stays
  terminal invalid_request (#3140). Transient statuses (429, 5xx/529) still
  defer to the provider body code.
- In-band api_error/overloaded_error failures are counted by
  classifyRetryError in the 429/overload class by design, so the failover
  flags project them onto the 429 counter; otherwise bucket failover would
  never fire for the exact failures that motivated it (#1564, #1726).
Six review findings on the unified retry work, all triaged as accepted:

- HIGH: one-shot auth repair was keyed on RetryRequestContext objects,
  but nested orchestrators (load-balancer backends) resolve their own
  context per attempt while sharing the request's metadata record, so
  repair could run twice for one committed request. The claim slot now
  lives on the shared record (claimRequestAuthRepair) with a regression
  test pinning the nested-context case.
- MEDIUM: taxonomy parity tests compared isRetryableFailure against
  shouldRetryError, which delegates to it - a tautology. Retryability is
  now pinned as explicit literals per mapping case, plus pins for
  LB-request-timeout (terminal, LB owns it) vs stream timeout
  (retryable), and a seam check that shouldRetryError stays routed
  through the taxonomy.
- MEDIUM: unreachable `yield { type: 'message_stop' }` after a throw in
  AnthropicProvider.tools.test.ts removed.
- LOW: transport errno codes (ECONNRESET et al.) no longer surface as
  providerCode telemetry; quota fixtures now use the production envelope
  shape (error.code), which is still read.
- LOW: budget facts come from a typed reader
  (readTransportAttemptBudgetFromRecord) instead of an ad-hoc cast, and
  budgetUsed/budgetLimit are omitted when no budget is attached rather
  than reporting misleading zeros.
- LOW: dead `events` parameter in the terminal-validation scripted
  transport removed.

Providers suite: 590/590 isolated files green; lint and tsc clean.
Two LOW findings from the second (final) review round:

- backendAttemptExecutor hashed the credential token unconditionally
  even when no recovery tracking context was attached to the request,
  wasting SHA-256 work per attempt. The digest is now computed only
  when a tracking record exists to receive it.
- The attempt-telemetry test used non-null assertions on budget
  fields; a regression there would surface as a TypeError inside an
  unrelated assertion instead of a clear failure. Defined-guards run
  before the arithmetic assertions now.

Load-balancer suites (19 tests), lint, and typecheck green.

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 461c5

The PR unifies streaming retry and failover behavior, but a malformed response-metadata accessor can still bypass fallback error handling, while cancellation telemetry and one deadline test remain bounded follow-up concerns. The PR is mergeable with explicit owner awareness and follow-up.

Walkthrough

Before this PR, provider retries, OAuth bucket failover, and load-balancer backend failover tracked attempts and timeouts independently. That made it easy to exceed a request’s effective retry budget, retry after partial stream output, or leak abort/cleanup behavior across provider wrappers. After this PR, a single committed transport-attempt budget is attached to the request context and shared across RetryOrchestrator, bucket failover, and LoadBalancingProvider backend attempts. Streams are guarded so partial-output failures are marked terminal and not retried, attempt lifecycle is notified consistently through extracted observers, and Retry-After/backoff behavior is centralized in one delay policy.

Release Notes

  • Extracted attempt lifecycle notification context for consistent observer updates

Bug Fixes

  • Fixes Unify streaming retry, recovery, and failover under one committed request budget #2532: retry, recovery, and failover now honor one shared request budget instead of double-counting attempts

Title Clear and descriptive: states the architectural change (unify streaming retry, recovery, and failover) and the mechanism (one committed request budget), and references the primary issue (#2532).
Description Contains all required template sections: TLDR, Dive Deeper, Reviewer Test Plan, Testing Matrix, and Linked issues / bugs. The body is detailed and includes preserved-behavior pins and deviation notes.
Linked Issues Actual changes fulfill the primary #2532 acceptance criteria: unified failure taxonomy (retryFailureTaxonomy.ts), request-scoped commit state (retryRequestContext.ts), single guarded-stream primitive (guardedStream.ts), commitment gates (retryCommitGate.ts), Anthropic terminal validation (AnthropicStreamProcessor.ts, streamProtocolErrors.ts), Retry-After normalization (retryAfterHeader.ts), SDK retry fencing (vercelRequestParams.ts), telemetry extensions (attemptLifecycle.ts, notifiers), orchestrator/LB unification (RetryOrchestrator.ts, LoadBalancingProvider.ts, failover logic), timeout iterator cleanup (loadBalancing/streamTimeout.ts), and architecture docs (dev-docs/providers/retry-recovery-architecture.md). Tests cover commit boundaries, taxonomy decoding, guarded-stream behavior, LB telemetry, and terminal validation. Regression-pinned issues #1150, #2849, #2917, #3048, #3128 are addressed via preserved semantics and test fixture updates.
Out of Scope Cannot independently verify test execution, lint/typecheck/build success, or smoke-test behavior from the provided diff. OAuth repair and headless-mode retention are claimed in the PR narrative but lack explicit test changes in the summarized actualCodeChanges. The issue catalog mentions packages/core/src/utils/retry.ts and ProviderManager.ts, but no changes to those files appear in the diff.

Make the secret-free assertion real.

The test name states that telemetry never adds token or credential material. The options do not contain any credential, and the assertions only check failureKind and errorMessage. The test therefore cannot detect a credential leak.

Supply a recognizable credential in the request options and assert that no serialized AttemptEndInfo field contains it.

PR #3367 follow-ups from code review:

- Retry-After parsing now distinguishes absent from explicit zero:
  getRetryAfterDelayMs returns undefined when the header is missing or
  unparseable and 0 for an explicit zero or past date; hasRetryAfterHeader
  is presence-based. Taxonomy reports retryAfterMs: 0 only for explicit
  zero. Consumers (orchestrator, delay policy, openai-responses) verified.
- Fresh request contexts re-arm the one-shot auth repair slot after
  budget release so a new logical request can repair auth again.
- Anthropic message_delta with a non-null stop_reason marks the stream
  terminal, matching streams that omit the trailing message_stop event.
- buildFailureReport guards decodeRetryFailure failures and falls back
  to budget-only facts; post-commitment auth repair failures are logged
  instead of silently swallowed.
- Tests: malformed-after-partial-output composed case, Retry-After family
  coverage including a plain-object APIError, auth-repair re-arm, and
  lifecycle metadata passthrough through the full wrapper chain; the
  handler stub now satisfies the full BucketFailoverHandler interface.

…l guards (#2532)

Review round 2 remediation:

- Retry-After is now parsed strictly per RFC 9110: only fully numeric
  delta-seconds values count; prefixes ('5seconds'), fractions ('1.5'),
  and signed values ('-1') fall back to backoff instead of leaking into
  lenient JS date parsing, where JSC accepted them as ancient dates and
  clamped them to immediate retries. HTTP-date parsing is restricted to
  letter-bearing values, the shape every real HTTP-date has.
- decodeRetryFailure and its property readers are total: throwing
  getters or proxies on hostile error objects degrade to an unknown
  classification instead of propagating and masking the real failure.
- StreamTruncatedError/MalformedStreamEventError now carry LLXPRT_*
  code markers and the duck-typed guards require name AND code, so an
  unrelated error sharing the class name cannot be misclassified.
- claimRequestAuthRepair documents its attached-context invariant.
- Test hygiene: commit-state tests release their budgets; the LB
  commit-boundary retry test pins failover_retry_count explicitly.

All gates re-verified: providers suite 590/590, lint clean, tsc clean.

Comment thread packages/providers/src/retryFailureTaxonomy.ts
Follow-up to the round-2 hardening: the try/catch in decodeRetryFailure
covered only classifyRetryError, so a throwing `headers` getter could
still escape through buildRetryFailure's Retry-After walk. The catch now
spans classification, provider-code probing, identity resolution, and
failure construction, degrading to the protocol/unknown failure with the
original error as cause. A throwing-headers regression test pins it.
Prettier check in CI flagged the resolveFailureIdentity call added in
d50791a as over the print width; reformat only, no behavior change.
