Makes the WebSocket events transport survive a connection that is lost while a step_started write is in flight.

Problem

step_started can't be retried as a new write: a second start counts as another step attempt. So a WebSocket closing between sending a step_started and receiving its reply fails the step's delivery. The queue redelivers it, and every redelivery spends a step attempt.

Change

step_started requests are now resumable:

  1. Negotiation. The upgrade request offers x-workflow-ws-features: resumable-step-started. A server that supports it answers with a features frame right after the upgrade. Servers that don't support it ignore the header and never send the frame.
  2. Lost connection. If the connection is lost before the reply arrives, a resumable request isn't failed. The transport reconnects (the existing eager reconnect) and waits up to 2 s for the new connection's features frame.
  3. Resend. If the new connection supports the feature, the request is resent byte-identical to the original apart from its per-connection reqId, with retransmit: true. The frame is rebuilt from the same input, so it carries the same client-stamped occurredAt and ownerMessageId. The server uses those to recognise a write it already applied and answers from its record instead of applying it again. The reply may carry replayed: true.
  4. Fallback. Otherwise, and when the reconnect budget runs out, the channel is released, or the request's deadline passes (still measured from the first send), the request fails exactly as before.

Other event types are unchanged: they keep failing on a lost connection and are re-sent by event-retry.ts as today.

Telemetry: the client span gets workflow.events.ws.retransmitted and workflow.events.ws.replayed.

Tests

  • ws-transport.test.ts:
    • the feature is offered on every upgrade;
    • a lost resumable request is resent on the next connection with retransmit: true and a new reqId, and resolves with that reply;
    • it fails with the original close error when the new connection never announces the feature;
    • non-resumable requests still fail on close;
    • releasing the channel fails a request waiting to be resent;
    • one deadline covers the whole request, including the resend.
  • events-v4-ws.test.ts:
    • step_started is sent as resumable and other types aren't;
    • a resend differs from the original only in reqId and retransmit.
  • Checks: pnpm typecheck and vitest run src for @workflow/world-vercel pass (790 tests).

🧪 E2E Test Results

✅ All tests passed

⚠️ Flaky E2E Tests (passed on retry)

These tests failed at least once and passed on a retry. A recurring entry here is a real race worth investigating.

  • 'hookGetConflictWithPriorStepWorkflow' - hook.getConflict() does not block step execution (nextjs-webpack · local-dev / local / node / stable)
  • addTenWorkflow via pages router (nextjs-webpack · local-dev / local / node / canary)
  • promiseAllWorkflow via pages router (nextjs-webpack · local-dev / local / node / canary)
  • sleepingWorkflow via pages router (nextjs-webpack · local-dev / local / node / canary)

🛠 Infra Events (absorbed by the harness)

Platform anomalies the e2e harness detected and worked around (e.g. a run the queue never picked up, replaced by a fresh run). Clustered timestamps indicate a backend blip; a steady drip indicates a platform issue worth escalating.

ℹ️ Metric definitions & methodology

Streams: first-chunk RTT (the stream-open path, before any buffering/backpressure), CRTT percentiles, and worst delivery stall (CDV max). Cells are medians across iterations; per-run values in the artifacts. No 🔴/🟢 marks until targets attach.

The collapsed STSO distribution section above buckets every step gap, split inline (same warm process — pure framework overhead) vs queue-hop (fresh process — dispatch, reinit, replay). █ = main, ┃ = this run, ░ = fill.

The collapsed CRTT drill-down: per-variant RTT histograms (fixed log bins, · = empty) and mean RTT/positive-CDV profile lines over stream progress and chunk size. Histograms, avgs, and profiles merge exactly across runs; p50–p99 are percentile-of-percentiles. Per-index rows live in the artifacts.

Best/P75/P90/P99 deltas compare against the most recent benchmark run on main at the time of this run. 🔻 flags a delta worse than +15%, 💚 one better than −15%.

Metrics — TTFS: time to first step body (in-deployment start() → first step body) · Fan-out TTFS: fan-out time to first step (in-deployment start() → first of the parallel step bodies to complete) · Fan-out TTLS: fan-out time to last step (in-deployment start() → last of the parallel step bodies to complete, i.e. when the Promise.all resolves) · STSO: step-to-step overhead (gap between consecutive step bodies) · WO: workflow overhead (whole-run time outside step bodies, in-deployment anchored) · CRTT: chunk round-trip time (per-chunk write → read latency, one clock domain: deployment → stream backend → same deployment) · CDV: chunk delay variation / delivery jitter (inter-arrival gap minus inter-write gap per seq-adjacent pair; skew-free; the row is each run's MAX positive value, so one stall moves it)

Scenarios — step: one trivial no-op step, no stream; no hooks, so the run stays in turbo mode (in-process fast path) · stream: one streaming step; no hooks, so the run stays in turbo mode (in-process fast path) · hook + stream: registers a hook before one step, which exits turbo mode (dispatch path) · 1020 steps: 1020 trivial sequential steps; STSO is measured between consecutive steps in the given step ranges, and WO is the whole-run overhead outside step bodies · Promise.all(100 steps): 100 trivial no-op steps started together in a single Promise.all; Fan-out TTFS is the first of them to complete and Fan-out TTLS the last, both from the in-deployment clientStart, so their gap is the spread the runtime adds across the fan-out · paced control (100/s, 60B): the control: 300 tiny (~60B) deltas metronome-paced at 100/s — zero workload structure, so it reads the transport floor and flush cadence, and disambiguates transport-wide vs workload-specific when a replay row moves · size sweep (100/s, 160B-12KB): same pacing as the control with deltas padded in rotation across seven log-spaced sizes (~160B–12KB) — rotation decouples size from stream position, so it isolates whether chunk size causes latency · replay gateway-gpt-5.4-nano-2000t (1x): raw provider SSE cadence captured at the AI gateway boundary (gpt-5.4-nano, the most popular gateway model; per-token deltas p50 208B = the modal production chunk size), replayed exactly as measured — the typical customer's workload; its CDV is the typical customer's real delivery jitter · replay eve-gpt-5.6-sol-2000t (1x): a captured eve turn (gpt-5.6-sol, the most-used demanding eve model; ~2000 output tokens = production p50 turn length) replayed exactly as measured — eve's envelope protocol re-ships the cumulative message so sizes ramp 142B→13KB; the demanding outlier tenant's reality · replay eve-gpt-5.6-sol-2000t (2x): the same eve capture at 2x — the headroom/stress row; real fast-tier models emit the same chunk sizes at proportionally higher rate, so time compression is a faithful speed model · first chunk (pooled): every run's seq-0 RTT pooled across all stream scenarios — the first chunk precedes any workload differentiation, so pooling samples one shared stream-open path with exact percentiles

Replay cadences (semantic sha256) — eve-gpt-5.6-sol-2000t eaf22f5946e7c61f3c65c7006d550df180cfabd4e706254a09f22aec0cfb420d · gateway-gpt-5.4-nano-2000t 6f24ac518b6b83ff1d0e85a5fe78230db192716d66a7fc6b2fe022752001d041

🔴 marks a percentile over its target (within target is left unmarked). Targets (p75/p90/p99, ms) — TTFS 200/300/600

All timestamps are deployment-side; runs are triggered in-deployment, so the CI runner and api.vercel.com sit outside every measured window. TTFS = start() → first step body (includes dispatch + any cold start); Fan-out TTFS/TTLS = first/last step completion of one Promise.all from the same anchor (the gap is the runtime’s fan-out spread); STSO/WO between step bodies; CRTT inside the workflow (excludes the api.vercel.com read path).

Cold starts stay in the numbers (real bursty-workload latency, inflates P75+); Best is the warm floor.

Closing in favour of #4504, which splits large frames so the transport works where a single WebSocket message is size-limited.
