Verify stream completion on clean EOF in the reconnecting framed reader#3564alangenfeld wants to merge 2 commits into
Conversation
A clean EOF was trusted as genuine end-of-stream. In production the server's v3 max-duration abort is normalized into a graceful EOF on the way to the client, so long-lived reads ended silently at the 2-minute connection cap: zero reconnects across all reads org-wide, with read completions clustering at exactly 120s. A completed stream cut mid-body had the same shape - a clean EOF short of the tail. On EOF the reader now consults streams.getInfo and treats the EOF as a cut unless the stream is done AND the frames delivered cover every chunk up to the tail, reconnecting from the next chunk exactly like an errored connection. A metadata failure falls back to trusting the EOF so a transient blip cannot fail a healthy completion. Negative-startIndex (tail) reads keep their single-shot behavior.

🧪 E2E Test Results✅ All tests passed 🛠 Infra Events (absorbed by the harness)Platform anomalies the e2e harness detected and worked around (e.g. a run the queue never picked up, replaced by a fresh run). Clustered timestamps indicate a backend blip; a steady drip indicates a platform issue worth escalating.

Streams
ℹ️ Metric definitions & methodologyStreams: writer/reader sustained rates (steady window, 10% trimmed each side), first-chunk RTT (the stream-open path, before any buffering/backpressure), CRTT percentiles, and worst delivery stall (CDV max). Cells are medians across iterations; per-run values in the artifacts. No 🔴/🟢 marks until targets attach. The collapsed STSO distribution section above buckets every step gap, split inline (same warm process — pure framework overhead) vs queue-hop (fresh process — dispatch, reinit, replay). The collapsed CRTT drill-down: per-variant RTT histograms (fixed log bins, Best/P75/P90/P99 deltas compare against the most recent benchmark run on Metrics — TTFS: time to first step body (in-deployment start() → first step body) · Fan-out TTFS: fan-out time to first step (in-deployment start() → first of the parallel step bodies to complete) · Fan-out TTLS: fan-out time to last step (in-deployment start() → last of the parallel step bodies to complete, i.e. when the Promise.all resolves) · STSO: step-to-step overhead (gap between consecutive step bodies) · WO: workflow overhead (whole-run time outside step bodies, in-deployment anchored) · CRTT: chunk round-trip time (per-chunk write → read latency, one clock domain: deployment → stream backend → same deployment) · CDV: chunk delay variation / delivery jitter (inter-arrival gap minus inter-write gap per seq-adjacent pair; skew-free; the row is each run's MAX positive value, so one stall moves it) Scenarios — step: one trivial no-op step, no stream; no hooks, so the run stays in turbo mode (in-process fast path) · stream: one streaming step; no hooks, so the run stays in turbo mode (in-process fast path) · hook + stream: registers a hook before one step, which exits turbo mode (dispatch path) · 1020 steps: 1020 trivial sequential steps; STSO is measured between consecutive steps in the given step ranges, and WO is the whole-run overhead outside step bodies · Promise.all(100 steps): 100 trivial no-op steps started together in a single Promise.all; Fan-out TTFS is the first of them to complete and Fan-out TTLS the last, both from the in-deployment clientStart, so their gap is the spread the runtime adds across the fan-out · paced control (100/s, 60B): the control: 300 tiny (~60B) deltas metronome-paced at 100/s — zero workload structure, so it reads the transport floor and flush cadence, and disambiguates transport-wide vs workload-specific when a replay row moves · size sweep (100/s, 160B-12KB): same pacing as the control with deltas padded in rotation across seven log-spaced sizes (~160B–12KB) — rotation decouples size from stream position, so it isolates whether chunk size causes latency · replay gateway-gpt-5.4-nano-2000t (1x): raw provider SSE cadence captured at the AI gateway boundary (gpt-5.4-nano, the most popular gateway model; per-token deltas p50 208B = the modal production chunk size), replayed exactly as measured — the typical customer's workload; its CDV is the typical customer's real delivery jitter · replay eve-gpt-5.6-sol-2000t (1x): a captured eve turn (gpt-5.6-sol, the most-used demanding eve model; ~2000 output tokens = production p50 turn length) replayed exactly as measured — eve's envelope protocol re-ships the cumulative message so sizes ramp 142B→13KB; the demanding outlier tenant's reality · replay eve-gpt-5.6-sol-2000t (2x): the same eve capture at 2x — the headroom/stress row; real fast-tier models emit the same chunk sizes at proportionally higher rate, so time compression is a faithful speed model · first chunk (pooled): every run's seq-0 RTT pooled across all stream scenarios — the first chunk precedes any workload differentiation, so pooling samples one shared stream-open path with exact percentiles Replay cadences (semantic sha256) — eve-gpt-5.6-sol-2000t 🔴 marks a percentile over its target (within target is left unmarked). Targets (p75/p90/p99, ms) — TTFS 200/300/600 All timestamps are deployment-side; runs are triggered in-deployment, so the CI runner and api.vercel.com sit outside every measured window. TTFS = Cold starts stay in the numbers (real bursty-workload latency, inflates P75+); Best is the warm floor. |

Summary & Motivation
Long live reads were ending silently at the server's 2-minute connection cap: the max-duration abort reaches the client as a clean EOF on some transport paths, and the reader read that as end-of-stream. On EOF it now consults
streams.getInfoand reconnects from the next chunk unless the stream is done and every chunk up to the tail was delivered. A failed metadata read trusts the EOF, so a transient blip can't fail a healthy completion.Test Plan
Tests added for the reconnect, verified-completion, metadata-failure, and reconnect-budget paths.
