Summary

  • Replaces the SDK's internal AbortSignal.timeout (set in _createRequest at sdks.js:125) with an application-level AbortController + setTimeout in attemptOnce and lookupGenerationCost
  • The SDK's timeout signal lives only in the Request object's internal slot — under GH Actions runner memory pressure, it may be GC'd before firing (nodejs/node#55428, confirmed-bug). Observed: PR feat: refresh review instructions from upstream skill updates #55 self-review attempt 1 ran 1004s against a 600s timeout
  • The application-level controller keeps the signal alive in function scope (immune to GC), and clearTimeout on completion prevents leaked timers
  • The signal is passed via the SDK's fetchOptions spread path, which skips the SDK's own AbortSignal.timeout when a signal is already present

Test plan

  • npm test — 496 passed
  • npm run lint — clean
  • npm run build — clean
  • npm run prettier:check — clean
  • New test: signal is an AbortSignal (not aborted after success)
  • New test: clearTimeout is called after successful response
  • Existing timeout test updated: asserts signal: expect.any(AbortSignal) instead of timeoutMs: 45_000

The SDK creates an AbortSignal.timeout inside _createRequest, where the
signal's only strong reference is the Request object's internal slot.
Under memory pressure (observed on a GH Actions runner: 1004s against a
600s timeout, Node v24.19.0, undici 7.29.0), the signal may be garbage
collected before it fires — a confirmed Node.js bug (nodejs/node#55428).

Replace the SDK's timeoutMs option with an application-level
AbortController + setTimeout in attemptOnce and lookupGenerationCost.
The controller lives in function scope (immune to GC), the signal is
passed via the SDK's fetchOptions spread path (skips the SDK's own
AbortSignal.timeout), and clearTimeout on completion prevents leaked
timers.

Rename "passes an AbortSignal that aborts after the configured timeout"
to match what the test actually proves (signal exists and is not
pre-aborted). Fix "does not sleep after the final attempt" to use
non-zero retryDelayMs and spy on setTimeout — the previous version
used retryDelayMs: 0, making the attemptNumber guard untested.

The comment claimed excluded paths "would fail or be skipped here for the
same structural reason" — wrong. These are files successfully read in full
by higher-priority channels (changed files, related files); they would
succeed in the priority-doc channel too, creating duplication. The exclusion
prevents that duplication, not a redundant failure.

Add a regression test that exercises the actual timeout abort path: the
stub's promise stays pending until the signal aborts, fake timers advance
past both attempts, and the test asserts signal.aborted is true and the
result is a retryable api_error. Without the AbortController wiring,
this test fails.

Wrap the clearTimeout spy in try/finally so mockRestore runs even if the
test assertion or requestReview rejects.

The second attempt's abort rejection fired asynchronously before
the .rejects.toThrow() assertion could catch it, producing an
unhandled rejection error in CI (--unhandled-rejections=throw).
Attach .catch() on the promise before advancing timers so both
attempts' abort rejections are handled immediately.

Also wrap the setTimeout spy in the retry-delay test in try/finally
for consistent cleanup on assertion failure.

Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

OpenRouter requests now use AbortController timers instead of SDK timeoutMs options. Tests cover signal propagation, timeout abortion, timer cleanup, and retry delays. The readPriorityDocs documentation now clarifies exclusion behavior.

Changes

OpenRouter timeout handling

Layer / File(s) Summary
AbortSignal timeout implementation
src/openrouter/client.ts
Request options now support AbortSignal. Chat and generation-cost requests create timed controllers and clear timers after completion.
Timeout and retry test coverage
src/openrouter/__tests__/client.test.ts
Tests verify signal propagation, timeout abortion, timer cleanup, retry-delay scheduling, and generation-cost lookup options.

Priority-document exclusion

Layer / File(s) Summary
Priority-document exclusion clarification
src/context/workspace.ts
The documentation states that excluded paths were already rendered and are not read again or counted against the budget.

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

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 09cd3

The timeout handling change has no identified production-impacting risk at the current head. Only a test-only style cleanup remains, with no actionable merge-blocking risk.

Drop generation responses from the clearTimeout test stub (delete
sdk.generations so only the chat attempt's timer exists) — the test
previously passed even if attemptOnce's clearTimeout was removed
because lookupGenerationCost has its own timer.

Replace the `as Error` type assertion in the abort test with
`void promise.catch()` + `rejects.toThrow` — cleaner and follows the
no-type-assertions convention.
