Problem

Video status polling failures discarded nonstandard upstream error bodies. xAI 400 responses could therefore be logged with only the HTTP status, hiding the actionable failure detail.

Changes

  • retain the raw response text when parsing video status responses
  • include a bounded 4,000-character upstream response prefix in generic polling errors
  • prevent oversized upstream bodies from bloating retry logs and persisted video records
  • cover the fifth consecutive xAI polling failure and verify truncation in persisted details

Verification

  • pnpm format
  • pnpm build
  • pnpm exec vitest run apps/gateway/src/videos/videos.spec.ts --no-file-parallelism (52 tests)

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes

    • Improved video-processing error messages by including relevant details returned from upstream services.
    • Capped upstream error details at 4,000 characters to keep persisted job errors, polling results, and logs manageable.
    • Preserved useful response information when video status checks fail.
    • Empty error responses continue to use a concise status-based message.
  • Tests

    • Added coverage for failed video jobs, upstream error details, and response-length limits.

Review Change Stack

Walkthrough

The mock video endpoint now supports per-video status and body overrides. Video polling preserves, trims, and caps raw upstream response text at 4,000 characters. Gateway tests verify capped errors in job, polling, and log records.

Changes

Video polling error handling

Layer / File(s) Summary
Configurable mock video responses
apps/gateway/src/test-utils/mock-openai-server.ts
The mock server stores per-video status overrides, clears them during reset, and returns them before normal video lookup.
Polling response text and failure logging
apps/worker/src/services/video-jobs.ts, apps/gateway/src/videos/videos.spec.ts
Video polling returns raw response text, trims and caps non-success errors at 4,000 characters, and tests the persisted job, polling metadata, and log values.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to a488e

The change improves video polling error logging while bounding persisted upstream response text; no actionable merge-blocking risk remains after normal checks.

P2 Badge Cap the polling error body before persistence

When a generic video provider returns an unusually large non-2xx body, such as a proxy HTML page or base64 payload, the entire response is now embedded in the thrown error. The polling loop logs that value on every retry and stores it in llmgateway_last_poll_error; on the final retry it is duplicated across the failed response and resulting log payload. With no length limit, one upstream response can therefore create oversized log events and heavily bloated JSONB rows. Preserve a bounded diagnostic prefix, consistent with the existing 2–4 KB caps on other upstream response logs.

P2 Badge Avoid splitting Unicode surrogates when truncating errors

When a non-BMP character such as an emoji straddles the 4,000-code-unit boundary, slice() leaves a lone UTF-16 surrogate in upstreamContents. Serializing that value produces an unpaired \ud8xx escape, which PostgreSQL rejects when the polling catch stores it in the upstreamStatusResponse JSONB column; the error counter is therefore not advanced, the job remains stuck, and the rest of the claimed polling batch is skipped. Truncate on Unicode scalar boundaries before persisting the diagnostic.

Cover the invalid-JSON response path.

fetchJsonResponse now catches JSON.parse failures and preserves responseText. This fixture passes a Record<string, unknown> to setMockVideoStatusResponse, and apps/gateway/src/test-utils/mock-openai-server.ts serializes it with c.json. The test therefore exercises only valid JSON. Add a raw-text upstream response case for the new fallback branch.
