Summary

Verification

  • Independent design/source review and scoped security review; git diff --check passed (text only).
  • Carried handshake rejection, timeout, cancellation, byte/count bounds, handoff-close and duplicate-release controls; added actual ordered preamble/live relay fixture.
  • Local tests/typecheck/build/install: NOT RUN, explicitly prohibited by the maintainer. Final-head hosted CI is tracked after publication.

Checklist

  • Scope stays focused and avoids unrelated cleanup.
  • Docs or release notes were updated when needed.
  • Security-sensitive changes were reviewed for secrets, auth, and unsafe defaults.

Independent dev-based PR, no native stack. Original #4216 closure and all merges belong to the coordinator.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Cursor context overflows now surface the first failure and can recover on later eligible requests with up to three conversation renewals within one hour.
    • Empty forced search answers receive one additional tool-free attempt while retaining search results.
    • Live sideband connections verify the upstream connection before accepting the client WebSocket, preserving initial frames in order.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Upstream sideband failures now return clear connection errors, and failed connections release admission capacity reliably.
  • Documentation

    • Added guidance covering Cursor recovery, search-answer handling, and live sideband behavior.

Review dispositions at 57b3057

  • The cancellation contract now explicitly documents HTTP 499 in the runtime and public format reference; all twelve additional server-owner links remain present.
  • The claimed invalid-close-code exception does not apply to the repository-pinned Bun ServerWebSocket API. Its close implementation accepts a numeric code, and close-frame formatting omits reserved 1005/1006 values. The browser-client validation rule is a different API; no runtime change is warranted for this finding.
  • The suggested observable wait is a nonblocking maintenance improvement. The current test waits beyond the fixed cleanup deadline using the same timer subsystem; no current ordering failure was established. Its assertions and production timeout remain unchanged.

Independent source re-review found no remaining runtime blocker. These source dispositions do not claim local execution or passing current CI.

Review Change StackReview Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change adds three runtime behaviors: live sideband handshakes complete before client upgrade, Cursor context overflows can use bounded conversation reminting, and empty forced-answer results receive one tool-free retry. Tests and documentation cover these contracts.

Changes

Runtime contracts and recovery flows

Layer / File(s) Summary
Live sideband handshake and relay ownership
src/server/ws-bridge.ts, src/server/index.ts, tests/server/server-live.test.ts
The server opens the upstream before the client WebSocket upgrade, buffers bounded pre-open frames, transfers them through a handoff, maps handshake failures to connect errors, and retains admission ownership until upstream closure.
Cursor overflow remint control
src/adapters/cursor.ts, src/adapters/cursor/cursor-errors.ts, src/adapters/cursor/thread-continuity.ts, tests/providers/cursor/*
Cursor surfaces the first eligible bare context overflow, then remints conversations for later eligible requests up to three times per retained scope. Retention uses a one-hour idle TTL and a 2,048-entry bound.
Empty forced-answer recovery
src/web-search/loop.ts, tests/web-search/web-search.test.ts
A clean empty forced-answer result receives one retry with gathered results, no tools, and toolChoice: "none". Malformed calls and refusal or truncation outcomes do not use this retry.
Runtime contract documentation
docs-site/src/content/docs/reference/proxy-formats.md, structure/...
Documentation describes the three runtime contracts, their limits, failure outcomes, exclusions, and separation from ordinary Responses WebSocket traffic.

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 37bc1

Rare sideband failures may leave a client connection open, and Cursor overflow recovery can cause the next request to replay into the same overflow. These should be corrected before merge.

이 PR은 live sideband(음성/실시간) 경로에서 upstream WebSocket handshake가 101에 도달하기 전에는 클라이언트 upgrade를 주지 않게 바꿉니다. 사용자 메모에는 draft로 적혀 있었지만, 현재 GitHub 상태는 READY·base dev·mergeable입니다. 현재 checkout의 src/server/index.ts는 아직 클라이언트 101 이후 attachLiveSidebandUpstream에서 upstream을 새로 엽니다. 그 순서면 upstream이 바로 죽어도 클라이언트는 이미 연결로 보고, codex-rs sideband는 TransportLost로 같은 call id에 무한 재접속할 수 있습니다. 실패한 HTTP upgrade만 connect error로 루프를 끊습니다.

핵심은 openLiveSidebandUpstream입니다. 10초 타임아웃(LIVE_SIDEBAND_UPSTREAM_OPEN_TIMEOUT_MS), abort signal, preamble frame/byte 한도, open 전 overflow/error/close를 502/504/499로 돌려줍니다. 성공하면 socket과 handoff를 upgrade data에 실어, open 이벤트가 이미 지나간 pre-opened socket의 초기 프레임(session.created 등)을 버리지 않습니다. closeLiveSidebandBeforeUpgrade는 아직 downstream이 없을 때 admission lease를 CLOSED까지 붙잡고 있습니다. ws-bridge.ts 타입과 문서/테스트(tests/server/server-live.test.ts)가 같이 따라옵니다. #4216의 bounded preamble·terminal handoff·admission retention도 이어서 보존한다고 본문에 적혀 있습니다.

+865/-29로 서버 경로 비중이 큽니다. #4371 Cline이나 accounts/#4352와는 겹치지 않고, remote workspace 스택(#4372)의 ws-bridge 확장과도 파일은 겹칠 수 있으나 목적이 다릅니다. Bun이 upstream 404/410 상태를 세밀히 노출하지 못하는 한계는 문서에 남깁니다. Native Responses WebSocket 실패(#4191)는 별 이슈로 유지합니다.

직전 dev에는 #4350 continuation replay와 #4340 affinity가 이미 들어가 있어 Responses 쪽 복구는 강화된 상태입니다. 하지만 live sideband는 그 경로와 분리된 transparent relay라서, 이번 handshake-before-upgrade가 빠지면 voice 재접속 루프만 따로 남습니다. 즉 “일반 chat은 회복되는데 voice만 같은 call id에 박힌다”는 증상 축을 겨냥한 READY 픽스로 읽으면 됩니다.

경로 openLiveSidebandUpstream - Bun이 handshake HTTP status를 안 주므로 모든 실패가 대체로 502입니다. 운영자가 upstream 권한/만료를 구분하기 어렵습니다. 문서화는 됐지만, 로그에 close code/reason을 더 남길지 결정이 필요합니다.

경로 upgrade 성공 직후 handoff.failure() 재검사 - open과 upgrade 사이 race를 막으려는 장치로 좋아 보입니다. 다만 실패 시 이미 open된 upstream을 닫는 경로가 테스트에 충분히 있는지만 CI에서 확인하세요.

테스트 분량 - handshake reject/timeout/cancel/bounds/handoff-close/duplicate를 싣는다고 했으나, rollup이 아직 거의 대기 상태입니다. READY라도 녹색 전에는 land하지 마세요.

메인테이너의 판단이 필요한 지점

너의 추천
의미 있는 READY 픽스입니다. CI 전체 녹색과 #4372와의 겹침만 확인한 뒤 land하세요. draft가 아니라면 라벨/제목의 draft 표현이 남아 있으면 정리하세요. 우선순위는 풀 쿼터 루프(#4368)보다 한 단계 아래로 두면 됩니다.

🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Clear the invalidated checkpoint reference before reminting.

The overflow branch deletes inheritedCheckpointRef, but remintConversationId changes only the conversation ID. If no replacement checkpoint is captured, the done handler serializes the inherited cursor with the new conversation ID and the deleted checkpointRef.

The post-loop cleanup does not remove the reference for this path because overflow remint requires a non-isolated request with contextUsageStoreCheckpoints !== false. On the next turn, resolveCursorCheckpoint finds no snapshot for the stale reference and returns expired, not missing_ref. createCursorRequest then selects full-replay, which can trigger the overflow again.

Remove only checkpointRef before reminting. Preserve the other cursor continuation fields.

Proposed fix
-                if (inheritedCheckpointRef) invalidateCursorCheckpoint(inheritedCheckpointRef);
+                if (inheritedCheckpointRef) {
+                  invalidateCursorCheckpoint(inheritedCheckpointRef);
+                  const inheritedCursor = _parsed._providerContinuation?.cursor;
+                  if (inheritedCursor) {
+                    const { checkpointRef: _removed, ...cursorWithoutCheckpointRef } =
+                      inheritedCursor;
