Navigate logical layers of code changes, visualize relationships, and explore their blast radius. 📝 SummarySummary by CodeRabbit
WalkthroughProbe retry handling now uses a dedicated error classifier. Timeout and deadline errors retry within the configured budget. Permanent and dead-session errors stop after one attempt. Tool schema maps use deterministic ordering. Table-driven tests verify the retry behavior. ChangesProbe retry behavior

- Line 456: Update the error classification flow around isDeadSessionErrorText
and isTransientError to recognize 404 and 422 session-status errors before
timeout-based retry classification, including messages containing “timeout”
without a known session phrase. Add coverage for both status forms and preserve
first-attempt reconnect behavior.

Summary
The periodic connection checker's probe retries (
ProbeRetryConfig) were using the sharedisTransientErrorclassifier, which treats timeouts as permanent failures. This is appropriate for initial dial attempts, but incorrect for heartbeat pings over an already-established connection — a single slow response from a busy upstream would exhaust none of the retry budget and immediately mark the client as Unstable, potentially churning a healthy session over a transient hiccup.Changes
isTransientProbeError, a dedicated retry classifier forProbeRetryConfigthat treats timeouts as retryable (unlike the shared classifier) while still treating dead sessions (404/422) and auth rejections (401/403) as permanent failures — since retrying those over the same connection cannot succeed and only delays the reconnect."403 forbidden: timeout"from incorrectly falling into the retryable timeout branch.isTransientProbeErrorintoProbeRetryConfigvia theIsRetryablefield.TestProbeRetryConfig_RetriesTimeoutsButNotPermanentFailuresto pin the classification behavior: timeouts are retried up toMaxRetries + 1attempts, while dead sessions and auth failures fail on the first attempt.Type of change
Affected areas
How to test

TestProbeRetryConfig_RetriesTimeoutsButNotPermanentFailuresvalidates that:context deadline exceeded,i/o timeout) are retried the full number of configured attempts.Breaking changes
Security considerations
Auth rejection errors (401, 403) are explicitly classified as permanent and non-retryable, ensuring credentials are not repeatedly sent against a rejecting endpoint.
