batchTriggerAndWait blocks the parent on a waitpoint as soon as the batch is created, but the batch is only sealed once all its items finish streaming. If the item stream fails completely (rate limit, request timeout, crash), the batch stayed PENDING with no runs and the parent waited on its waitpoint forever. A seal-timeout reaper, scheduled when the batch is created, now aborts a batch that is still unsealed after BATCH_SEAL_TIMEOUT_MS (default 30 minutes) and completes the parent's waitpoint with an error so it resumes. The reaper is idempotent and no-ops if the stream sealed the batch in the meantime.

Don't abort a batch whose items were all processed (processingCompletedAt set) before the seal landed; those runs resume the parent on their own. Keep expireBatch idempotent: an already-aborted batch still resolves its parent waitpoint, so a retry after a mid-run crash can't leave the parent blocked. Treat ABORTED as terminal in tryCompleteBatch so a straggler run finalizing can't flip the batch back to COMPLETED. Abort the batch if scheduling the reaper fails, so a blocked parent is never stranded with nothing to free it.

If the URL is credential-free per this project’s conventions, allow the logging.

Learning: When handling Prisma error P1001 ("Can't reach database server") in TypeScript, don’t assume a single error shape. Prisma can surface P1001 via two different error classes/fields: `PrismaClientKnownRequestError` exposes it as `err.code === "P1001"` (common during mid-query connection drops), while `PrismaClientInitializationError` exposes it as `err.errorCode === "P1001"` (common on client startup failure). Therefore, predicates should use `err.code === "P1001" || err.errorCode === "P1001"`. Do not flag `err.code === "P1001"` as “unreachable/never matches,” as it is expected in production.

Learning: When handling Prisma errors for P1001 ("Can't reach database server"), do not assume it only appears under a single property name. Prisma may surface P1001 via either `PrismaClientKnownRequestError` (`err.code === "P1001"`, e.g., mid-query connection drops) or `PrismaClientInitializationError` (`err.errorCode === "P1001"`, e.g., client startup connection failure). To reliably detect the condition, check `err.code === "P1001" || err.errorCode === "P1001"`, and avoid review rules that would incorrectly flag `err.code === "P1001"` as unreachable/never-matching.

Learning: In triggerdotdev/trigger.dev, within `dashboardLoader`/`dashboardAction` (or similar context resolver code) whenever you resolve an organization ID from an organization slug for RBAC/enterprise authorization scope, always read from the primary Prisma client (`prisma`), not `$replica`. Using `$replica` can hit replica-lag and cause the RBAC lookup/authorization to run without the correct org scope (bypassing intended role enforcement). Implement the slug→org lookup with `prisma.organization.findFirst(...)` (or equivalent primary-client query) and add an inline comment documenting why the primary client is required (replica lag could lead to unscoped RBAC checks).

Do not flag `vi.fn()`-based `ApiClient` stubs in unit tests as violations of the testcontainers policy.

During code review, do not flag the absence of a per-call timeout on a single `fetch` as an issue; if per-call timeouts are needed, they should be implemented via a codebase-wide convention (e.g., a shared fetch wrapper or documented pattern) rather than ad-hoc per-function changes.

…reaming never completes (#4397) ## Summary `batchTriggerAndWait()` could leave a parent run waiting forever. The 2-phase batch API blocks the parent on the batch's waitpoint as soon as the batch is created, but the batch is only sealed at the end of item streaming. If streaming never completed, nothing sealed the batch, nothing completed the waitpoint, and the parent stayed suspended with no timeout and no way to recover. Supersedes #4016, which added the reaper alone. ## Fix Admission for item streaming was being decided twice. Batch creation passes its own rate limiter, which fixes `expectedCount` and blocks the parent, and then the item stream had to pass the general API limiter as well, competing with unrelated traffic. A second limiter could therefore veto work the first had already committed the parent to. Creation now mints a bounded grant that the item stream spends, so an admitted batch can finish streaming. The grant is capped per batch rather than exempting the path, and every failure mode (no grant, spent grant, unreachable store) falls back to the normal limiter. That makes stranding much rarer but not impossible, since a request timeout or a crash can still end streaming for good. So a seal-timeout reaper aborts any batch still unsealed after `BATCH_SEAL_TIMEOUT_MS` and completes the parent's waitpoint with an error, letting `batchTriggerAndWait()` reject instead of hang. It is race-safe against a late seal, and it is only scheduled for batches that actually block a parent, so fire-and-forget batches cost nothing. Finally, the batches page used to report "Batch completion checked." for these batches while doing nothing, because the completion path returns early on an unsealed batch. It now says the batch cannot be resumed. Rate limiting is no longer the reason a batch strands, so the reaper's default stays at 30 minutes, comfortably above the SDK's worst-case stream-retry budget. ## Verification Unit and container tests cover the grant cap, the bypass ordering (it runs after the authorization check, so it can never skip authentication), and the reaper's abort, seal race, idempotency, and no-waitpoint cases. Also verified end-to-end against a running stack. With the general limit exhausted, batch creation and other API calls returned 429 while a granted batch still streamed and sealed; an ungranted batch id was rate limited rather than bypassed; and the grant cut off exactly at its configured attempt count. Reproducing the stranded state on a real parent run, the batch was aborted at the timeout, the waitpoint completed with an error, and the parent resumed and finished instead of hanging. A parentless batch left unsealed was untouched well past the reaper window. ## Verified against deployed runs The reaper was proven end to end with a real deployed run (locally-run supervisor, containerised run) and a real network fault, rather than a simulated one: toxiproxy severs the phase 2 item stream mid-flight so every SDK stream retry genuinely fails, while phase 1 still succeeds. Only the batch calls traverse the fault, so control-plane traffic is untouched. The reproduction is the shape that actually strands a parent: the task catches the `BatchTriggerError` the SDK throws and carries on, so the phase 1 block outlives the thrown error and the parent hangs at its next suspension point. With the reaper disabled, the parent sat in `EXECUTING_WITH_WAITPOINTS` for over 24 minutes holding two blockers, and stayed stuck across a full infrastructure restart: ``` type | status | has_timeout BATCH | PENDING | f <- orphan, completedAfter NULL DATETIME | COMPLETED | t <- the wait already elapsed ``` With the reaper enabled the same task under the same fault completed in about 75 seconds with zero blockers left, the batch `ABORTED`, and its waitpoint completed carrying the error. Two conditions are required to observe this at all, which is worth knowing for any future test: the run must be deployed rather than `trigger dev` (dev runs execute in process and finish while still holding blocker rows), and the wait after the caught error must exceed the checkpoint threshold, or it is served in process and never suspends. ### Why completing the batch waitpoint is sufficient `batchTriggerAndWait` runs create, then stream, then wait. A phase 2 failure throws before the wait is ever reached, and the reaper only fires on an unsealed batch, so the parent is never suspended awaiting the batch when it runs. The parent therefore does not need a synthetic result, only to stop being blocked. Note this reasoning depends on that ordering: if the wait were ever reached with an unsealed batch, completing the batch waitpoint alone would not settle the caller. ## Follow-ups - Batches stranded before this ships still need a one-off recovery; the reaper only schedules at creation time. - That same property leaves a gap if the process dies between creating the batch and scheduling the job. A periodic sweep would close it, but wants a supporting index. - When a partially streamed batch aborts, children already enqueued keep running while the parent fails. Left as-is deliberately, since cancelling triggered work is a bigger semantic call.
|
Superseded by #4397, which merged as c72ebf9. Flagging rather than closing since this is your PR. The seal-timeout reaper concept here was right and carried over intact, including the conditional-updateMany race guard. What changed on the way in:
One thing worth knowing, since it changes how the fix is justified: the SDK ignores BATCH-type waitpoints entirely, so completing one does not settle Also picked up separately: the "check completion" button silently reported success for these batches, because the completion path early-returns on an unsealed batch. |
Summary
batchTriggerAndWaitcould leave the parent run suspended forever. When the item stream that populates a batch failed to complete after many retries (for example under rate limiting, a request timeout, or a crashed request), the batch was left with no runs and the parent kept waiting on a waitpoint that nothing would ever complete.Fix
The parent is blocked on the batch's waitpoint as soon as the batch is created, but the batch is only sealed once all its items finish streaming. There was no recovery path if streaming never reached the seal.
A seal-timeout reaper is now scheduled when the batch is created. If the batch is still unsealed after
BATCH_SEAL_TIMEOUT_MS(default 30 minutes), it is marked aborted and the parent's waitpoint is completed with an error, sobatchTriggerAndWaitrejects in the parent instead of hanging. The reaper is idempotent and race-safe: if the stream seals the batch first, the reaper no-ops.The default timeout is sized above the SDK's worst-case stream-retry budget (max attempts x server request timeout).
