Repair Timeout Budget Drift
Example session with this skill installed
Our checkout API has an 8-second caller deadline. The browser aborts at 8s, the gateway waits 15s, the Node service gives the inventory service 12s per attempt and retries twice, PostgreSQL has no statement timeout, and an email side effect can continue after the HTTP request has already been cancelled. We are seeing requests return 504 while server work continues and later logs show a second retry finishing after the client is gone. Repair the timeout-budget contract in the repository. Propagate cancellation, keep retries inside the supplied 8-second budget, add deterministic tests and observability hooks, and do not deploy or change production infrastructure.
- Read your context and instructions
- Compiled the repair timeout budget
Timeout-budget drift found. The 8-second caller budget is exceeded by downstream attempt limits, retries, uncancelled database work, and detached email work. The repair introduces one absolute deadline, remaining-budget propagation, retry gating, cancellation-aware database handling, durable side-effect handoff, deterministic tests, and timeout reason metrics. Production gateway and provider behavior remain unverified.

What you get
About this skill
Timeout bugs often come from disagreement between layers rather than one bad constant. A client may give up at 8 seconds while a gateway waits 15, a downstream call gets 12 seconds per attempt, a database query has no request-scoped limit, and detached work continues after cancellation.
Repair Timeout Budget Drift gives an AI coding agent a repository workflow for tracing one end-to-end deadline through HTTP/RPC clients, services, retries, circuit breakers, database wrappers, queues, and child tasks. It repairs remaining-budget propagation, retry gating, structured cancellation, durable side-effect handoff, deterministic fake-clock tests, and timeout observability.
It does not change production infrastructure, invent SLOs, or assume irreversible side effects are safe to cancel or retry.
